Inazuma, the land of the electro archon. Is now in peace. The vision hunt decree is now gone, the shogun has stop seeking for eternity and accepted changes of Inazuma, all thanks to the traveler whom changed everything.

But there's still two people who cannot face eachothers' troubles. one does not have the courage to apologize and one cannot accept the apology.

Raiden invited Kazuha to the tenshukaku to have some tea with her. There they were sipping tea in awkward silence, when Kazuha suddenly broke it "Why did you invited me here? I'm pretty sure that you invited me for a reason" Raiden stared down at the cup of tea in her hands and then faced the maple leaf boy "I invited you here because..." The bakufu paused and took a deep breath "I wanted... to apologize for your friend's death" Ei said. Kazuha put his cup now empty on the table and sigh "Dear Raiden Shogun, there's no need of an apology. My friend Tomodachi is the one whom chosen to challenge you to a duel, whether he dies or not. He did it for the sake of Inazuma" Ei lifted her head up, fully facing him "It's not my fault?" Ei questioned and in return Kazuha nodded his head "Yes, its not your fault. As I said, it was his choice. He died in a honourable death" He said making the both of them have flashbacks about Tomo.

Ayear ago
(Kazuha's Flashback)
-6 months before the divine punishment——

Kazuha and Tomo were in a mountain facing Inazuma City. Tomo carressed the back of his cat and stared at the City from afar. The sakura petals swayed in the breeze, as the sky turned into a hue of maroon. Kazuha stared at the crimson sky and said "what a peaceful day. Is it not, Tomo?" Kazuha looked at the said male "Yeah, a wonderful and peaceful day with the vision hunt decree stripping out visions and ruining multiple of lives every single day" Tomo said in frustration.

Kazuha just stared at him "would'nt just someone step out from their hiding place and stop all this eternity shit?!" Tomo cussed making his cat leaped out of his hands and unto Kazuha's "dont tell me you're going to fight against the Shogun— Kazuha was cut off by Tomo who said "Oh yes, I am" Kazuha stood up from the rock that he was sitting in and said "She's a literal God! You have no chance on— Kazuha was then cut off again by Tomo "It's for Inazuma. I'll make that bitch pay from what she has done! SHOGUN! FU— "Tomodachi!" Kazuha covered his friend's mouth from letting him let out any vulgar words.

When Tomo finally calmed down, Kazuha put his hands down. Tomo sighed deeply and turned around "I'm still going to fight the shogun! I won't let you stop me, Kazuha. This is for Inazuma... even if that means dying" Tomo said before leaving Kazuha all alone.

Kazuha watched as his friend slowly disappears out of sight. Kazuha stared at the ground, as the sun slowly sets "you're making a bad decision, Tomo" He said, disapointed at his friend.

(Ei's flashback)
Raiden was standing at the main doorways of the tenshukaku

Kojou Sarah then approached the shogun and kneeled down "Shogun-sama, the vision wielder has arrived"the tengu said

Kojou Sarah then approached the shogun and kneeled down "Shogun-sama, the vision wielder has arrived"the tengu said. Raiden looked below the battlefield and saw the man looking back at their direction. Raiden looked back at the tengu warrior "Well then, let's have a pre-match. Kojou Sarah you go first" Raiden announced and Kojou Sarah walked down to the battlefield.

Tomo took a deep breath, gripping the hem of his katana. He then pulled it out and pointed it at the tengu, who was 8 meters away from him. Sarah then let out multiple arrows targeting him but Tomo reacted quickly and blocked her attacks

Kojou Sarah clicked her tounge and used her elemental skill to blew away the vision wielder. Tomo stumble backwards but landed safely. He then got up quickly and ran to the side, still being shot by several arrows.

Tomo then got close to Sarah's back and let out his elemental skill(long pressed)
a purple flower emerged from the ground and let out a powerful lightning that blew them away. Just before Kojou Sarah hit the ground, she shoot an arrow straight to the man's abdomen.

Meanwhile, Raiden was observing her opponent's moves and unexpectedly she was impressed.

Raiden then walked up beside the Kojou tengu, signaling her that it was her turn.

Tomo gripped the arrow that was stabbed into his abdomen and threw it at the Shogun whom tilted her head and gripped the arrow in mid-air.

The Shogun glared at the injured man "I'm impressed that was so close..." She said and gripped the arrow until it broke into two. Raiden then twirled her naginata and stepping inch by inch to him. Tomo's vision was blurry and he slowly backed away while gripping his katana. In a blink of an eye, shogun strike him with one blow and Tomo landed on his back, sending his katana away from him.

Raiden then pointed the tip of the blade of her naginata at Tomo's neck "seize your vision or face the consequences" The shogun said. Tomo caughed off blood and his vision came back and he saw the shogun's face clearly. His eyes sparkled and out of the blue he exclaimed "YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL" Kojou Sarah and the guards overheard and that compliment given by the man reached the plane of euthymia to Ei.

"What a lucky guy who's gonna end up with you. You will be the perfect wife!" Tomo said, now kneeling infront of the shogun. Those words made Ei to fully control the puppet and dropped her naginata. Tomo grabbed the Ei's hands in his and said "Please, marry me!" The Kojou tengu, the guards, and even the shogun was too stunned to speak.

Out of jelousy Kojou Sarah activated her elemental skill and pointed it between the man and the shogun. Sending out a lightning, this caused the couple to split up and stumble backwards, just in time for Kazuha to witniss the scene of his friend dying.

Kazuha quickly grabbed his friend's vision and fled away from the tenshukaku. Kojou Sarah then ordered the guards to catch him. Ei was still stunned and sat next to the man who was laying on the cement floor and stared at his almost lifeless eyes. The man stared back at her purple eyes and smiled softly "you're so beautiful..." those were his last words.

End of flashbacks

Kazuha bid farewell to the shogun and thank her for the tea, before he left to go back to ritou. Ei walked back inside the tenshukaku and went to her chamber.

Ei approached the open sliding door that leads to the balcony and stared at the moon that shines brightly with the stars accompanying the dark.

Ei closed the door and layed on her futon, slowly drifting away to sleep.
