Chapter 27: Truth

Hold on a moment...

[Host. There are a total of six users.]

Six users.

What about Blair?

It felt like it was deleted from my memory somewhere.

Wouldn't there be seven though?

Strange... I suddenly feel like it isn't that important.

[Deletion: Complete]

Huh?

I woke up with a terrible headache. I feel like I've forgotten something..

Ugh...

I get up.

Blair... there was something about her... but I don't remember anymore...

I need to find her.

_____________________________________

Ghh...!

It hurts... Where am I? What am I?

Oh.

I'm... Blair.

And I... I can't remember...

There's something in front of me. Someone. A cloaked figure. She's... my creator...

No. I'm human, aren't I?

I am...

Aren't I?

"Blair. Are you awake?"

I managed to sneak out of my room without waking Elise up. I had a feeling she wouldn't let go.

Blair opens the door, eyes dull unlike usual.

"I am. Did you need something, Miss L/N?"

Strange. She usually calls me Y/N.

[Host. This person is dangerous. Warning: Dangerous.]

Dangerous?

"...?!"

She lunges towards me with her hands wrapped tightly around my neck, strangling me with her grip.

"B-Blair... Can't... breathe...!"

"Master!"

Batman...

Batman uses his magic to push Blair off me. Her body stays unmoving on the ground.

"Master, that person is radiating a lot of dark magic right now... and it isn't her magic."

Shiro catwalks over, Kuro following behind.

"She is being controlled."

Huh?

"No, to be more accurate... she has been controlled this entire time."

"A puppet. That's what she is."

What do they mean? A puppet? Blair is a human being... with emotions. How could she be...

"Saviour. I've found you."

Blair's body sits upright. It's more stiff than usual.

Her head turns to face me. She gets up and walks over.
