Inside the main temple…
After the daughter's heartfelt reunion, her mother whose name seems to be Yasaka brought us inside and have to say she indeed is a very beautiful
{ A/N:- your dear Author Shinigami is back with a reference photo in his discord server (link below) ↓}
Come to think I remember Kunou don't have a father or more like she even never seen her father and here too I can't see anyone male inside this building which seems to be the home of mother and daughter
Other than a few servants who are also females, there aren't any males among them but I think it's rude to ask her directly about this
Especially when I am nothing but an outsider and the reason why I am curious about her father is because Kunou is the same as her mother
This is weird since a child should inherit both mother and father genetics but looking at Kunou
She looks like an exact copy of her mother, not only is her appearance the same but her energy is exactly the same as hers but at a very weak level
The more accurate word to say is that I feel Kunou rather looks like a clone of her mother more than her child
In the past, I might think this might be normal for youkai but since I know Kuroka who is also a youkai has normal parents, I don't think that's the case
But seeing the connection between both of them, I feel that her feelings for Kunou are very genuine like a real mother
So I can guess that there is some story behind this but I as an outsider don't have any authority or right to know that
"Ara~ I can't know how to thank you enough for saving my daughter," Yasaka said as she sat down with her daughter meanwhile her servants served us some kind of hot drink
"But still thank you very much for saving my only child," Yasaka said in a sincere tone as she expressed her gratitude in a serious tone as she bowed her head
"It's okay" I replied as I felt that was not an issue since I was also glad nothing bad happened to that kid since I knew if I hadn't interfered then surely this kid would have experienced something very inhumane
"Still if it is any for me to repay this debt then surely I will do my best to satisfy your needs," she said this as she got her head back up again and then winked at me for some reason
Well I don't want anything to be honest, just be sure to take care of your child's safety from now on, since not every time she can be saved by someone
Of course, I can't say this directly to her face and appear as someone rude and considering the fact if I did say that then even though I don't know her reaction would be
But I am sure her servants in this building as well as the people outside of this building will take this as an offence
Come to think of it, I am perfectly hiding my energy meaning that anyone would think of me as nobody at this moment
I couldn't help but wonder what would happen if I released even a little bit of my energy which would probably be enough to make everyone in this area lose consciousness
Not only that it could be way worse because if a person here doesn't have a strong will that person might die instantly by my energy alone
But I won't do that at all, since I have no intention to fight with them since first of all I got no enmity and second we just come here to return the know back at her home where she belongs
After that, I don't think we will meet again or most probably know gonna forget all these things since she is just a small kid and I am sure after a few years, she's gonna forget everything that happened these days like normal kids
But since she is not your normal human child, and because of that she remembered everything and wanted to meet us again then also it's fine
Since she now has the ring I don't intend to take it back because it's totally useless for me to take but on the other hand for Kunou this item is extremely useful
With that ring, she can easily blend in with humans even though I know they have stuff like magic and all but having a permanent backup is better
Not only that since with this ring, she probably saved herself from getting kidnapped again but I am more impressed by the fact that her mother was immediately able to recognize Kunou who was wearing that disguise ring at one glance
Maybe that's what a mother-child bond is, I know this because I experienced that bond myself but fortunately, unlike me, she was able to meet with her mother again
Hopefully, she will live safely with her from now on without any accident or kidnapping
Anyway after saying that, Yasaka asked about our identities as we introduced ourselves even though Aria was still not a good stranger but at least she was far better than in the past and now she introduced herself
She looked at the kuroka who was in her cat form as she was about to ask about her but I told her name and luckily she didn't ask anything else
I am sure that Yasaka is definitely aware of Kuroka's real identity especially when she is the leader of the Youkai faction and there is no way that she failed to recognize her own kind
But at least she didn't ask more questions, maybe she was able to understand that there must be some reasons for Kuroka being in this form
Otherwise, I might have to send my shadow soldier to Yasaka shadow to talk to her mind
