The worst possibility has come true.
This was Emerald Sparrow's first feeling upon hearing Emerald's words.
If Tulip had already defected, then Mo He, who had traveled with her and repeatedly mentioned joining a certain "team," was also self-evident.
The team Mo He spoke of, the one she had already joined, was Claw Mark.
Emerald Sparrow was not entirely unprepared for this answer. In fact, she had known for a long time; she simply didn't want to believe it.
She couldn't believe that Mo He and even Tulip would become part of "Claw Mark," would join such an organization akin to terrorists.
As comrades who had participated in the wars between the realms and had fought on the front lines of the Garden Defense Battle, Mo He and Tulip were not just "colleagues" to Emerald Sparrow.
The Garden Defense Battle was a life-changing war for many of the Magical Girls who survived it, imprinting a significant mark on their hearts.
