Yukie grew more confused. "What do you mean? That doesn't make sense."
"Do you think it makes sense that I, as a child who hadn't even awakened yet, killed humanity's strongest Hunter?" I countered.
Yukie fell silent. That was true. At the time of the incident, Adam was still a child. Not yet awakened. There was no way he could have defeated the Sword Saint, the most powerful Hunter ever, in a direct fight.
But she'd seen it with her own eyes. She saw Adam kill her father with his own hands. That wasn't an illusion. That wasn't a dream. That was real.
I began telling her everything.
"It was nighttime. I'd just woken up, still half-asleep. My father suddenly came to my room and gave me his sword. Heavenbreaker. You know that legendary sword, right? The one with only one ability—it could cut through anything it slashed."
Yukie nodded slowly. Everyone knew about Heavenbreaker. The most powerful sword ever created.
