3 days has passed since Kuro fell asleep. Once he got raised his body from the 'bed,' there were a pairs of eyes staring at him.
Now, as if she have waiting for her entire life just to say this sentences, she opened her mouth, her eyes full of expectations. "Hey, you're finally awake."
Kuro, whose body fully refreshed, was now, stress-free. However, he was sweating a bullet.
I forgot the next dialogue…
.

This is being unnecessarily awkward. "By the way, Kuro. How did you know that Okayu-chan was me?"
Kuro laughed at himself—he already figured out that he have no talent to make other people laugh. The reason for his bad pun working against her was because she's bad against it. Sighing sadly, slightly, he spoke. "It's your eyes…"
"Or so I'd like to say, but that's not all the reason—one more reasons came from sounds. When all of you spoke simultaneously, the direction of sound were a bit weird. Which confirmed my suspicious."
Her trick which she worked together with Okayu, was broken rather easily, that it made her dispirited. "So the moment you entered the room you knew…"
Kuro just warmly smiled to her. "To tell you the truth, I didn't figure it out. I was told from my friend(?) while I went out—Arin-san. She told me that there was a disturbance in mana or something."
Of course it was just a bullshit he made.
The Oni puffed her face furthermore. "You don't need to lie to me cheer me up. I hate you!"
Kuro just shrugged as he shakes his head. "Yep. That's the gist of it. Once you stayed with someone for a long time, you kind of get know of that person."
"Ohhh. I see!" The Oni was satisfied now. But her face changed suddenly.
"So… who is this girl called Arin?" For the first time, Kuro was made aware that women truly had 100 faces at their back.
Just in case, Kuro thought hard of what to answer, as depending on his answer, he may lose his life. "Sh-she is someone with many secrets…" With shaky voices, he finally said it.
"Say it more clearly. So I can understand!"
Unconsciously, Kuro emitted an miserable shriek, as he saw a true demon's face showed in front of his face. It was much scarier than Fnafs' jumpscare. "Yes, miss! Her name is Murasaki Arin, she is a Sin of Pride, specialises in magic-related, for some reason her magic doesn't require a contract from gods."
"She lives at Sin's Hut with her daughter which appears around my age, as for what attributes she specialises in, I don't know as I lacks some info. She has a prideful personality but is actually a good person beyond the armors of her."
"Her weakness appears to be children such as me, as her care for children increased since her daughter's birth. Although it may be her weakness, this weakness shouldn't be called as her weakness, as she almost killed me when I first met her. It appears that her 'weakness' finally applies when you pass her trials, and you gain the 'qualifications' to talk with her."
"Uhm… mistress, are you listening?" Kuro while sweating, slowly looked at the Oni that seems to be in daze—about to sleep.
"Huh!? Ah, yes. I am listening. I am listening so, explain it within 5 words!" The silver-haired Oni who seemed to about to sleep, woke up from her daze as she complained.
"She is a good mother!" Kuro explained
'Ah, there's no hope… she's completely in her own world.' Kuro gave up trying to explain after seeing her eyes which pointed to him but not looked to him.
As Kuro gave up, he took her hand, and dragged her outside the room. Which amazing, as she was also unconsciously moving her leg to follow him.
So even though it was Kuro dragging her, there was no resistance or whatsoever.

"Let me meet my daughter!"
The metallic sounds of through the entire domain, surpassing the boundary of ordinary realm—as the blue flash and red flash danced across the sky.
From the god's view, the forest were absolutely destroyed, there were no more object to hide the Nakiri Town—as it wasn't as hidden as before—this was the result from the 3 days and 3 nights battle that has been continued without a rest.
As for citizens? They were relaxed. It's nothing out of common for a family quarrel to occurs. For the Nakiri family, battlefield were just a little bit bigger compared to others.
As such, destroying the lands and the skies.
"No!" The red flashes let out a sound, but unfortunately, before it travelled to blue flashes' ears, he was already gone from that places—traveled at speed rivalling the 'teleportation'—moving behind her.
But, she reacted it rather easily, as sh sheathed her sword, before getting to stance.
"Oi, oi! Are you really using that!?"
The woman didn't care heed for his words—the blades left from its sheath. "Crescent Dust."
At first look, it will looks like she only slashed once, but faintly—so faint, it may as well seems invisible, a hundreds of crescent arcs was slashed toward the blue flashes, Nakiri Soujin—in a time, which not even a nanosecond have passed, he dodged every single slashes.
Suddenly, after the countless crescent slashes has began to disappear, a blue-like dust, similar to moonlight appeared in just the trajectory which the red flashes, Nakiri Adona slashed at.
The blue dust, or rather—a result of mana being cut in a countless pieces turned to—suddenly let out an enourmous energy as…
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
a huge explosion occurred. Which also caused another strange phenomenon. The explosions, which is supposed to be untouchable, indestructible, unstoppable and deadly, was being suck to another man's hand, like a black hole.
His hand moving in a strange way—like a water stream, he moved the explosions enough to destroy their entire town to the air. "As I said, that attack is enough to destroy all of our buildings. Don't want anyone our citizens to get hurt, right?"
With a tones like he was just joking around, the words that came out from that mouth was rather serious. Meanwhile, the woman was as unsatisfied. "Hmph. So you still care about your citizens."
She looked away.
"Alright. My bad, okay? I was too immersed in my training and completely forgot about the time. How about this I'll back down from this fight and do as whatever you ask, one time." This time, the man seemed to remember his biggest crime he committed.
That is, leaving his wife alone.
"I… I was so lonely…" Despite her usual cold personality, she had a cute side.
"I am sorry, I am sorry…" the two which have been mysteriously fighting for three days, suddenly resolved their problem within theirselves. It's as if, they've forgotten why they were fighting…

Did they even had a reason to fight at first place?
