Owari No Seraph-Ichinose Guren, 16-sai no Catastrophe Volume 5 & 6

Chapter 1

"Genius......"

A kid with a sister that was regarded as such, what will they grow up into?

Ichinose Guren glared at the cold metal gate in front of him.

That young girl was in Tokyo, Shibuya, residing in a high class apartment block in front of Dogenzaka. She was living alone.

Guren reached out his hand and opened the door.

The apartment wasn't locked.

Even the corridor connected to the entrance doesn't have any light. According to his information, it should be a house with 2 rooms, a living room and a kitchen.

A house that can accommodate a young girl who was living alone.

Along the corridor, there are apartments to her left and right.

Across the hallway would be the kitchen and the living room.

However, he couldn't feel the presence of anyone living there.

Guren took off his shoes and walked across the hallway.

He walked into the living room, and just like he thought, there wasn't any light as well.

The time now is 6pm.

The curtains were drawn shut.

The time now is 6pm.

In the darkness, a young girl sat alone on the sofa, in a daze.

Hiragi Shinoa.

She was only 7 years old.

The younger sister of the Hiragi Mahiru that single-handedly had both Mikado no Oni as well as the Hyakuya Sect dancing in the palm of her hand.

"......Not going to switch on the lights?"

He asked, and Shinoa replied.

"It's too troublesome."

"Do you want it switched on?"

"The switch is behind you."

"I'll help you switch it on."

"Ah, could it be that you want to sneak into the room of a beautiful young girl, and get up to no good in the darkness? How disgusting. Per-vert. If you do that then I'll have to report it to my sister~"

Hearing this, he switched on the lights in the room.

Under the light, her figure emerged.

Under her head of light grey hair, she had a lovely disposition, just like Mahiru. But, unlike Mahiru, there was no trace of emotion on her face.

That was the result of being compared to the genius of a sister since birth.

That was the result of being born and raised by the Hiragis.

He asked.

"If you can report to Mahiru, then go ahead and do so."

"Well, my sister only contacts people when it's convenient for her do so. So, you who call yourself the lover of my sister, shouldn't you know better than anyone else where she is? - Ichinose Guren."

Shinoa said.

He thought about it and glanced at her.

"............"

Mahiru disappeared entirely.

Even using『Mikado no Oni』's excessively large network, there were no clues of her whereabouts.
