"Do you know if there have ever been any cases of a half-fallen angel and half-demon existing somewhere throughout the history of the world?"
When Kouhei asked that question, Aegis's eyes widened almost immediately, and for a second, Kouhei thought he had somehow stumbled onto something important without realizing it. Her reaction made it look as though she knew exactly what he was talking about, or at least that the question had triggered some kind of memory buried somewhere in her mind. Maybe Kouhei was rushing things a little too much by asking her directly, but he was already pressed for time, and although time was no longer quite the problem it had been before, it was still something weighing on him enough that he wanted answers as quickly as possible.
Still, Kouhei soon realized that he had completely misread Aegis's reaction.
Her eyes had widened because the question itself had come completely out of nowhere, rather than because she knew the answer.
