Something feels off about this chapter, with
komurasaki’s character especially. I don’t think she wanted to have her freedom bought by anyone but herself-and if that’s not possible then what other way than to get close to Orochi, right?
Or what better way than to try to buy herself than save up enough money from 3 different men who would have tried to buy her?
Not to say she didn’t genuinely do those things, such as taking the money etc, but it feels like she has some sort of be-all-end-all?
Like if since a young age she has been groomed to be a bride/mistress for Orochi, or if she is hiyori-would she recall the events?
The whole transition to Momo talking about his sister seems too forward to hint towards a connection, but in the format of reading seems like a perfect way to hype up a character or suggest something to the reader that makes them go ‘what if’.
Either way it just feels weird..
