One hour before the Meiya sisters invaded Itogami Island.
After dinner, Kanase Natsuon cleaned up the table.
In the living room, under the warm milky white light, Yakumo and Natsuki were still arguing.
"I said no means no. Do you know how dangerous the prisoners in the 'Prison Barrier' are?!"
Nangong Natsuki slammed the fan in her hand on the coffee table. She leaned forward, her eyes flashing with anger.
"You're going to make me feel very troubled if you keep doing things your way! Eight-cloud Ink, don't force me to put you in the Prison Barrier! "
This was the first time Natsuki called Eight-cloud Ink by his full name.
Clearly, the Witch of the Void was really angry.
"I spent so much effort to capture these prisoners. Releasing any one of them will bring disaster to Itogami Island. Some of them could even bring disaster to the world. Now you want to release all of them!?"
"Do you know what that means!?"
Across from Natsuki, Yakumo crossed her arms in front of her chest and silently looked at the angry witch.
"Slow down. You almost knocked over the teacup."
"I'm so angry!"
Eight-cloud Ink found it interesting to see Natsuki this angry.
However, he wouldn't provoke Natsuki just because of this. He picked up the teapot and poured Natsuki a cup of black tea. Then, he said in a low voice, "Alright, since you don't want to, I won't force you. However, LCO has never given up on opening the 'prison barrier'."
"That bunch of bastards!"
Natsuki Nangong cursed.
"Wasn't the lesson from ten years ago enough?"
"Well, Xiandu Mu A Ye has been planning for this for many years."
"It's her!?"
Natsuki Nangong suddenly raised her head.
"Tell me everything you know."
"It's nothing." Eight-cloud Ink chuckled, "After being imprisoned by you, Xiandu Mu A Ye used magic and other methods to create a daughter. That daughter's mission was to save her."
"Daughter!?"
Nangong Natsuki, who heard this for the first time, was extremely shocked. Her round eyes stared at Yakumo without moving.
"Yes, a daughter. A daughter who only has a mother and not a father."
Eight-cloud Ink glanced at Natsuki.
"You Witches are really amazing. Natsuki-chan, you're a Witch too. Can you do this?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Natsuki blushed and threw her fan at Eight-cloud Ink's forehead.
After nimbly tilting her head and dodging the fan, Yakumo quickly reached out and grabbed the black laced fan. Then, she chuckled and tossed it back.
"Let's not talk about this for now. That daughter is Xiandu Mu Yuma.... She's good friends with Koku."
"Koku?"
Natsuki's heart skipped a beat. She stood up from the sofa with a swish.
"Are you saying that she will use Kojou to open the Prison Barrier?"
Eight-cloud Ink nodded.
"The little girl's original plan was to sacrifice 100,000 of Itogami Island's citizens to open the Prison Barrier. After all, the amount of mana required to do so is too much."
"But when she found out that Kojou had become the fourth true ancestor, she changed her plan. Now, she wants to swap bodies with Kojou and use him as the true ancestor to open the enchantment."
"That's impossible!"
Natsuki shook her head.
"Primogenitors are cursed by God. No magic can surpass the level of God's curse. So, it's impossible to swap bodies with a Primogenitor."
"Well, it's not completely impossible. I'm just saying 'exchange', but it's actually a type of 'sensory deception'. Exchanging one's five senses with Kojou's is like exchanging the strings on a marionette. The soul itself doesn't have to exchange bodies, but it can use sensory deception to control the other's body."
Seeing that Natsuki's face was getting uglier and uglier, Yakumo Mo didn't care and stretched.
"Ah, don't make such an expression. Things aren't that bad. Didn't it not happen? I already told you in advance. What are you worried about? "
"You're right." Natsuki raised her fan and began to consider whether she should increase the surveillance on Koku.
"Instead of worrying about this, I think you should be more careful of Xiandu Mu Yuma."
"What's that bastard up to now?"
"She planned to steal the time you experienced in order to obtain the Dark Oath Scroll."
The original copy of the Witch's Book of Dark Oath had already been destroyed. If Immortal Mu A Ye wanted to obtain this book, the best way was to steal Natsuki's time. This way, Natsuki's experience of reading the Book of Dark Oath would become her experience.
"She still hasn't given up … What an unrealistic idea …"
Natsuki Nangong suddenly became depressed.
Xiandu Mu Yuma Xiandu Mu Yuma used to be her friend. Natsuki didn't feel good seeing her friend like this.
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. Now, you should go deal with some uninvited guests."
"LCO's people? Why are they here so quickly? "
Eight-cloud Ink nodded.
"I'm not in the mood. Go deal with them for me …"
"Ha, you're really not polite when ordering people around."
"I want to be alone."
"Who is alone?"
Natsuki rolled her eyes at Eight-cloud Ink and then couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, alright. Stop joking around. I won't collapse just because of these things. Hmph! Hmph, but I need to secretly set up some magic around Koku to deal with Xiandu Mu Yuma. I'll leave those uninvited guests to you. "
It was rare for Natsuki to use a negotiating tone.
"Okay, okay, who told me to freeload in someone else's house …"
She stood up and disappeared through a crack in Eight-cloud Ink.
"Ah, a monster that appears and disappears unpredictably …"
A crack opened and Eight-cloud Ink's head popped out.
"It's not up to you to say that."
"Ah!"
Natsuki, who was startled, was about to hit Yakumo's forehead with her fan in a bad mood.
However, she missed as Eight-cloud Ink disappeared again.
"Ah? Where's Yakumo gege? "
Kanon came out of the kitchen wearing an apron. Her hands were still wet. She looked around and didn't see any Yakumo Ink, so she asked Natsuki.
The sky-blue eyes made Natsuki think of that princess.
"He went to do something. Kanon, I have to go out for a while. You look after the house."
"Okay, Namiya-sensei."
Natsuki was also a teacher and Eight-cloud Ink was much older than Natsuki. However, Kanon addressed the two differently.
Although she didn't address her as Namiya-chan, this made Natsuki unhappy.
However, now wasn't the time to care about this. A magic formation appeared under Natsuki's feet and the petite witch instantly left the room.
The living room became quiet and only the ticking of the clock could be heard.
"Yakumo gege, come back quickly …"
Her hands clasped together, Kanase Kanon lowered her head and murmured.
