Night, at Natsuki Nangong's house.
"No matter what, we've been too reckless this time."
Sitting across from Yakumo, Natsuki waved the black lace fan in her hand up and down as if she was scolding a student who made a mistake.
"Fortunately, I didn't let Aya-chan take the Dark Oath Book. Otherwise, there would be a lot of trouble and we wouldn't have been able to get rid of those prisoners so easily."
"They aren't as strong as you say. Those guys —"
Yakumo Mo crossed her arms in front of her chest and crossed her legs nonchalantly.
"What kind of attitude is that, monster? If it wasn't for the prison's barrier limiting their strength, do you think Kojou and that snake charmer could have gotten rid of those prisoners so easily? "
Natsuki Nangong sneered as if she didn't agree with Eight-cloud Ink's assessment of the prisoners' strength.
"Those are the prisoners I worked so hard to catch. How could a monster like you look down on them —"
"I see."
Eight-cloud Ink interrupted Natsuki Nangong.
"Nanguki-chan, are you angry because I looked down on those prisoners and your strength?"
"Who would get angry over such a trivial matter?!"
Natsuki Nangong jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on. She threw her fan at Eight-cloud Ink.
"Bang!"
"Meow!"
The folding fan that Yakumo dodged hit Kanon's head as she walked into the living room with a cup of black tea. The silver-haired girl immediately let out a cute whine and knocked over the cup of black tea in her hand.
"Kanon-chan!"
"Kanase!"
The living room was covered with a soft and expensive carpet, so Kanon wasn't seriously injured even though she fell on the floor.
However, the black tea spilled all over the young girl's body. The young girl's beautiful body was presented in front of Yakumo's eyes without any reservation.
Eight-cloud Ink jumped up from the sofa and quickly ran to Kanon's side and helped her up.
Hmm, a cute pink color, very suitable for Kanon-chan …
"Slap!"
Natsuki Nangong who appeared next to Eight-cloud Ink knocked him on the head.
"Pervert!!"
"Cough, cough. That's force majeure …"
"Um, if it's Big Brother Yakun, I don't mind …"
Natsuki's face darkened at Kanon's words.
"How long do you want to watch?! Why aren't you retreating?! "
Eight-cloud Ink wisely chose to avoid Natsuki Nangong, who was on the verge of turning evil.

After the incident with the prison barrier, another period of peace passed.
Eight-cloud Ink resumed her daily life as a music teacher at Saikai Academy with Natsuki.
In the eyes of most students, Natsuki hadn't changed at all.
Only Akatsuki Kojou, Yukina Himeji, Eight-cloud Ink, and a few other students from Itogami Island knew that Natsuki was no longer a projection.
Then, one day.
After the music class was over, the students left the classroom one after another. Only Kanon stayed behind and stood awkwardly in front of Yakumo.
"That, Big Brother Yakun …"
"Hmm? What happened, Kanon-chan? "
"It's about lodging and research."
"Lodging and research?"
As a teacher, Eight-cloud Ink naturally knew about this.
In a few days, the middle school students would start lodging and research.
Kanon, Akatsuki Kojou's sister Nagisa, and Yukina Himeji, who was in charge of monitoring Kojou, were all middle school students.
In other words, they would all be lodging and studying.
It was a routine educational schedule similar to a study tour.
"What's wrong? Are you worried about this? Don't worry. Nagisa and the others are also with us … "
"It's like this. Nagisha-chan asked me to buy some things for her lodging and research this afternoon. Um, I heard that Nagisha-chan also asked her brother, Akatsuki, so, so I thought …"
Eight-cloud Ink saw Kanon's uneasy expression and placed her hand on her head.
Head stroking.
"Um … Can Big Brother Yakun come with us?"
"No problem."
After receiving an affirmative answer, the girl's snow-white face immediately lit up.
"Okay!"
○
"Ha … It's delicious."
Amidst the bright evening sun, Nagisa let out a heartfelt sigh.
This was an outdoor café in a shopping center.
She was sitting at a table outside the café licking a huge ice cream with three layers. It was an indescribably luxurious product that was decorated with countless pastries and candies.
Akatsuki Kojou, Yukina Himeji, and Kanon were also sitting around the table.
"Um, Big Brother Yakun, are you not eating?"
Kanon turned her head and looked at Eight-cloud Ink who was standing under a parasol. She was wearing a black and white Daoist robe that didn't match the weather at all.
"No need. I'm not interested in these things."
The pedestrians on the street came and went. Although some people were curious about Yakumo's clothes, there was no lack of maverick people in the special district of the demon race. Therefore, it didn't attract too much attention.
"So the rumors about the relationship between Nagisha-chan and Yagisha-sensei are true!"
Nagisa blinked her big eyes and looked back and forth between Eight-cloud Ink and Kanon.
"Hehe, Nagisha-chan, tell me the truth. What's the relationship between you two?"
As the younger sister of Akatsuki Kojou and the Fourth Primogenitor, Nagisa didn't know that her brother was the Fourth Primogenitor. She also didn't know what happened to her brother recently.
Akatsuki Kojou had been hiding these things from his sister.
However, Yakumo could sense the immense power emanating from Nagisa's body from time to time.
Akatsuki Kojou couldn't sense it, but Eight-cloud Ink felt like she was being watched the moment she got close to Nagisa.
It was the same kind of vampire aura as Akatsuki Kojou.
Aurora.
It was the vessel of the twelfth familiar of the Fourth Primogenitor, the Enchantress's Ashenice. The Primordial's watcher stored the Fourth Primogenitor's cursed soul.
[Well, that guy will know the truth sooner or later. I won't do anything unnecessary.]
As this thought flashed through her mind, Yakumo Mo's ears were filled with the sounds of the girls playing around as she observed the passersby in front of her.
After the girls finished their ice cream and rested enough, they began their unfinished shopping trip.
"Right, let's go over there! Let's go to that store! "
Nagisa suddenly pointed at a store and shouted.
It was a cute store with pink as its theme.
The windows were decorated with models posing in gorgeous underwear.
It was a lingerie store.
Akatsuki Kojou's mouth twitched. Eight-cloud Ink smiled and turned around with her back to the door.
"You guys go in. Kojou and I will wait outside."
Nagisa did not seem to care. She pulled Yukina and Hanase Kanon into the room.
"Look, it looks like they're having a limited time sale. I guess it's better to pay attention to lingerie when traveling. I think it goes well with Yukina-chan. Leave Kanon-chan to me. I'll pick a beautiful pair for you. Ah, Kojo-kun and Yakuma-sensei, please wait outside! "
"Even if you beg me, I won't go in!" Kojou snorted awkwardly.
Eight-cloud Ink suddenly felt her sleeve being pulled by someone.
"Hm? Kanon? "
Kanon pinched her sleeve and whispered: "Yakuma-gege, are you really not coming in?"
"Huh?"
"Um, I want to know what kind of lingerie you like …"
"Ahem! Well, anything is fine … Nagisa and the others are waiting for you. Go in. "
"Okay …"
After the girls ran into the lingerie store, Eight-cloud Ink glared at Kojou who was looking at her with a smile.
Then, a strange man approached and attracted the attention of both Eight-cloud Ink and Kojou.
He had a pure white hood and a red and white checkered tie and hat. He held a silver cane in his left hand. Although he looked like he was in his twenties, he looked like an old man or a child.
It was a suspicious man who gave the impression of a magician.
He stopped in front of Eight-cloud Ink and put his hand on his hat to greet them.
"Hello."
"Hello."
Eight-cloud Ink bowed and nodded. She was polite but distant.
Kojou also greeted back.
The man squinted his eyes and smiled.
His eyes were as red as blood, making people feel uncomfortable.
"That silver-haired girl is a beautiful child."
Yakumo Mo immediately changed her standing posture without a trace.
She was like a predator that could lock onto its prey at any time.
[It's him … That alchemist …]
"Is that so? She's really cute …"
Looking at the man in front of her, Eight-cloud Ink suddenly attacked without warning.
Her right hand was wrapped in demonic energy and pierced towards the man's chest like an indestructible blade.
"Aha, what a warm greeting!"
The man seemed to be prepared and calmly raised his right arm.
Then, a snake-like object was released from the man's right wrist.
It was a black-silver liquid with a metallic luster and a strong stickiness.
The object quickly condensed and transformed into a metal object that blocked Eight-cloud Ink's attack.
"Boom —!!"
The shockwave blew over the tables and chairs on the side of the road, causing a commotion and screams from the pedestrians.
"Tea-teacher?!"
Kojou didn't understand why Eight-cloud Ink suddenly attacked and quickly dodged the shockwave. At the same time, he quickly ran to the entrance of the underwear store and used his demonic energy to form a barrier to protect Nagisa and the others in the store.
At this time, he couldn't care less about exposing his strength in front of Nagisa.
"Oh, it seems like this mister is prepared. It seems that I should leave first …"
The man with the top hat jumped back and stood on top of a street lamp.
"Sorry for disturbing you today. See you another day."
Eight-cloud Ink responded to the man's words with a beam of light.
However, before the beam hit the man, his body strangely turned into a pool of liquid and quickly left the scene.
"Hmph …"
Eight-cloud Ink looked at the street lamp that was hit by its beam of light and snorted.
