"There's no need for any concealment, just tell them whatever they want to know."
"Remember, from now on, you two are spies placed by the Demons alongside the Hero."

One week later.
The ocean.
A small boat drifted on the sea surface.
There were two figures on the boat, one of whom had golden hair tied in twin ponytails. She was petite with a fair and adorable face, except her arms looked somewhat weird.
On her wrists, instead of delicate fingers, there were sharp, claw-like blades.
These sharp blades were fused with her wrists in a very bizarre way, as if they had grown from the wrists themselves.
Her flat chest, entirely devoid of any rise and fall, could not feel a heartbeat or breath... This was a corpse.
Aili, one of the Thief Twins.
When Rose Vesper met Aili, she was already just a corpse.
