Mio stared at the screen, blinking in total bewilderment at the giant, star-spangled flag, the oddly specific historical math, and Basara standing right in the middle of it all looking completely deadpan.
"H-Huh?! What is this even supposed to mean?!" Mio blurted out, pointing a finger at the caption in the top right corner. As soon as she read the words "THE LAND OF ZOLGIA 'MARQUIS ZOLGEAR,'" her crimson eyes narrowed into a fierce glare, dark purple demonic aura briefly flaring around her shoulders.
"Zolgear?! Why is that slimy, treacherous bastard's name being compared to some human history rebellion?!" she snapped, crossing her arms with a huff. Remembered hatred for the scheming demon noble who tried to usurp her father's legacy and manipulate her immediately got her blood boiling.
Then her eyes drifted down to the bottom left, reading the exact breakdown—4 years 3 months versus 8 years 6 months—and glancing back over at Basara's serious portrait pasted onto the white stripes. Suddenly, her anger melted into an amused, proud smirk—quickly followed by a faint pink blush on her cheeks.
"Well... I suppose whoever made this at least has good taste!" Mio said, tossing her red twintails over her shoulder with a haughty, confident nod. "Of course our story outlasted a bunch of greedy traitors like Zolgear! With Basara protecting me, we'd crush any corrupt empire in half the time!"
Pausing for a second, she squinted closely at the upside-down triangle of white stars in the corner, tilting her head in confusion. "...Wait a minute. Why are all those stars arranged like a giant heart or triangle? Is this some kind of weird human magic circle?!"
