"Lord Hachisaku-sama, and Masters, I'm back!"
Kanoya appeared with her school bag at the side of Hachisaku-sama and her group, having seen everything that had just happened.
"Hard work studying, Yukino."
Hachisaku-sama responded enthusiastically to Shouka's greeting.
Hannya nodded gracefully and appropriately at her, seemingly having adapted well to the title of "Master."
Lastly, Mary glanced at Shouka, puzzled, with an expressionless face and a slight tilt of her head.
It might have been a response too.
Hachisaku-sama, "Yukino, would you like to join the ladies for an afternoon leisure talk?"
"I'll pass, I'm heading inside."
Shouka gave a slight bow to the three elders and then scampered into the house.
As she was leaving, she wondered to herself, "How strange... Have Master Hannya and Master Mary gotten along better recently?"
After dropping her school bag, Kanoya encountered Kamiyagawa in the living room.
