"Munina! I know you suspect me, but how could someone else's scale be transplanted? If it could be done, the clan would have started mass-producing Seven Scales long ago!"
Munina's face flushed red, and she loudly retorted:
"Someone else's scales would cause severe rejection after transplantation, potentially even death. Wake up, Munina, we are sisters. How could I do such a thing?"
"Is it really nothing to do with you?" Munina's momentum weakened a bit.
"If it has anything to do with me, let me die by the sword!" Munina said resolutely.
"Pfft!"
Munina's dagger accurately plunged into her chest.
Munina screamed miserably as a piercing pain spread from her chest throughout her body.
"You said it yourself, I'm just helping you fulfill your vow."
Munina calmly looked at her sister and said coolly, "Sister, I made my decision by following my heart just now. If you admit to plotting against me and return my Lifebound Scale, I can spare your life and let you become a slave."
