"Brother, what... should we do?"
Not expecting Her Excellency, the Shogun to actually know about this matter, Ayaka was at a bit of a loss and could only ask her brother for guidance.
Although Her Excellency had just said she wouldn't pursue it, Ayaka felt the matter certainly wouldn't end just like that.
"Lady Guuji... we must go find Lady Guuji."
Turning to look at his sister, Kamisato Ayato voiced his thoughts. He knew that Lady Guuji would definitely know what Her Excellency, the Shogun was thinking.
Moreover, and more importantly, right now only Lady Guuji could help the Kamisato Clan tide over this crisis, just like back then.
"Lady Guuji..."
Hearing the person her brother mentioned, Ayaka nodded.
Indeed, in this situation, they had to go find Lady Guuji.
"Then I will set off now to inform Lady Yae of the Kamisato Clan's situation."
Since Miss Ayaka often sent him to deliver letters to Lady Yae, Thoma volunteered himself at this moment.
"Then I'll trouble you, Thoma." Kamisato Ayato, who had intended for this anyway, nodded to Thoma, and then continued: "By the way, remember to also mention your previous encounter with Her Excellency, the Shogun."
Although Kamisato Ayato felt it would be better to go himself, he worried that Her Excellency might send someone to the Kamisato Estate at any moment, so he had to stay home and wait for whoever might arrive.
"Understood, my Lord."
"Thoma, we're counting on you."
Watching Thoma prepare to leave, Ayaka also hoped he could successfully complete this mission.
"Don't worry, Miss Kamisato, my Lord. Leave it to me."
Knowing that his mission was extremely important this time, Thoma smiled, hoping to put Miss Kamisato and the Lord of the House at ease.
Afterward, leaving behind one last sentence, he ran towards the Grand Narukami Shrine: "I'm off then!"
I hope everything goes smoothly...
Thoma...
Watching Thoma's retreating figure, Kamisato Ayato could only think this.
However, after withdrawing his gaze, he couldn't help but recall what had just happened.
'Then what if I were to say that I am a fake?'
Her Excellency, the Shogun...
Why would she say that? Could it be because I was suspicious of the Shogun Thoma met?
Kamisato Ayato still found it very strange that Her Excellency, the Shogun had claimed to be a fake.
It was precisely because of this that he had asked Thoma to recount Her Excellency's actions in Ritou to Lady Guuji as well. He knew that Lady Guuji would definitely infer something from such behavior.
But for now, he just had to wait—wait for Thoma's return.
"Let's go, Ayaka. Let's go inside."
Deciding not to overthink it, Kamisato Ayato walked towards the house.
----------
Ritou Inn.
"Lumine, how about we go out and find something to eat together?"
"Didn't you say there wasn't anything good to eat outside?"
"But I'm so hungry! Right now, anything will do."
"You really... oh well, let's go."
Creak—
"We... ah... it's Sister Acheron back."
Just as she opened the door, Paimon saw Acheron returning from outside.
"Are you two going out to eat?"
Although she had heard their conversation inside the room clearly, she still asked.
"Yeah, yeah! Does Sister Acheron want to come along?"
Seeing Acheron ask, Paimon thought she wanted to join, so she issued a very enthusiastic invitation.
"No, Paimon and Lumine, you go ahead. I'm not hungry yet." Shaking her head, Acheron had no intention of eating right now.
"Is that so? Then we'll head out first."
At this point, Lumine spoke up.
Although she felt that with Paimon talking so much she didn't need to say anything, she felt it would be rude to stay silent, so she said this.
"Go ahead."
Nodding, Acheron continued walking towards Kaito's room.
Actually, she had thought about letting Wendy and Kiana go out to eat with Lumine and the others, but thinking that she had some business to attend to with Kaito, she dismissed the idea.
It couldn't be helped; since their senses were linked, when doing serious business, it was better to stay in the room.
Click—
Soon, Acheron entered the room and locked the door.
Sigh...
Too big isn't good either...
Feeling the constriction from her chest, Acheron, having locked the door, quickly stripped off the clothes from that area.
It had to be said, the feeling of being unrestricted there was really good.
These things really are better grown on someone else...
Cupping them with both hands and looking down, Acheron couldn't help but think this.
Before, she thought big was good, but she never expected that one day hers would actually become this big. Now, she wasn't feeling so great about it.
Never mind...
Ignore that for now...
Moving both her hands and gaze away, Acheron's eyes began to fall on Kaito, who was currently lying on the bed.
Although they were all the same person, perhaps because Acheron was the newcomer, that part of Kaito had pitched a tent.
Alright...
No need for hands or mouth this time...
Time to get down to business!
Looking at that spot, Acheron tossed the rest of her clothes elsewhere, then sat down on Kaito's body to help him take care of the situation beneath his clothes.

Grand Narukami Shrine.
"Lady Guuji, Thoma from the Kamisato Clan is here to see you."
Thoma?
Is he here to deliver a message from that little girl again?
Standing beside the Sacred Sakura, suddenly hearing that Thoma had arrived, Yae Miko subconsciously thought this.
Previously, the correspondence between her and the little girl from the Kamisato Clan had always been ferried back and forth by Thoma, so she guessed it was the same this time.
"Let him come see me."
"Yes, Lady Guuji."
Upon receiving Lady Guuji's order, the shrine maiden who came to report went to fetch Thoma.
Soon, Thoma arrived before Yae Miko.
"Lady Yae..."
"Is it a message from that little girl again?"
Turning around, Yae Miko asked directly.
However, when she saw the clearly anxious look on Thoma's face, she continued: "Come with me."
"Yes, Lady Yae."
Knowing that Lady Yae wanted to take him to a private place to talk, Thoma followed behind.
Clearly, Miko had already guessed that the news he brought was not simple.
