Chapter 12: HOW DARE HE?



**Zane POV**

The corridors of Kuoh Academy blurred as I walked, Koneko's quiet presence beside me a comforting constant. Her monotone commentary about cafeteria pudding almost made me smile. Almost.

Then the bell rang, scattering students like roaches. I headed for the council room, unease prickling my neck—*wrong, something's wrong*.

The door creaked open.

Ice splintered my veins.

Nana knelt in the center of the room, wrists bound by glowing chains that reeked of Sitri magic. A man in a tailored suit loomed over her, fingers trailing down her cheek. Her eyes—*her eyes*—were hollow, fractured.

"Ah," the stranger crooned, "the mutt arrives."

My Six Eyes ignited, dissecting the scene:

- **Chains:** High-tier devil-binding seals. Family-issued.

- **Nana's Crest:** Suppressed. Tremors in her left hand—withdrawal from resisting.

- **Assailant:** Nathaniel Sitri. 78% genetic match to Nana. *Brother.*

"Let. Her. Go." The words dripped with static, reality warping at the edges.

Nathaniel smirked, gripping Nana's chin. "Or what, Aetherial? You'll *unstitch* me?" His free hand glowed with familiar frost—*her* frost. "I've been… *disciplining* my sister. Sitri heirs don't fraternize with *strays*."

Nana met my gaze. A single tear froze mid-fall.

*Click.*

**No More Holding Back**

The world fractured.

One moment, Nathaniel's hand was on Nana. The next, it thudded to the floor, fingers still twitching. He stared at the stump, blood pooling sluggishly—devil regeneration neutralized by Aetherial corruption.

"**You dare—**"

I teleported behind him, lips brushing his ear. "Dare? I *evaporated* the Vatican's best. You're a spoiled brat playing with ice."

His remaining hand lunged, frost blades erupting. I didn't flinch.

*Snap.*

His arm detached.

"Z-Zane—" Nana's voice, fragile as cracked glass.

Nathaniel collapsed, gurgling. "F-Father will… *end* you…"

I knelt, Six Eyes swirling black holes. "Tell him this: Touch my Nana again, and I'll fold Hell into a snowglobe."

**Aftermath: Fractured Devotion**

The chains shattered under my touch. Nana crumpled into my arms, trembling.

"Why…?" She clutched my shirt, devil crest flickering. "He's my *brother*. My blood…"

"Blood?" I lifted her chin, wiping frozen tears. "You're *mine*. My chaos. My devil."

Her fists tightened. "They'll come for you."

"Let them."

**[System Alert]**

**[Nana Affection: Boundless → ??? (ERROR)]**

**[New Title: "Sitri's Scourge" – All devil-type enemies take 200% damage]**

**Nathaniel Sitri POV (Post-Credits)**

The teleportation circle spat him into the Sitri ancestral hall. His mother's gaze pinned him, colder than Nana's ice.

"Failed," she observed, healing his stumps with a wave.

"The Aetherial—he's not human! His eyes… *ate* my magic!"

A chess piece froze mid-air on the board. "Interesting." His father's voice echoed from shadows. "Prepare the *Kaleidoscope*. We harvest the voidwalker tomorrow."
