"What's the progress of the search?" Ei asked her friend and the traveler only to give her more disappointing news. The traveler purse her lips into a thin line, brows furrowed as she hurriedly walked away from the two ladies the little pixie following her around in panic. "Lumine! Where are you going?" Lumine didn't answer, she went on your old residence hiding herself in a spot that she can't be spotted.

"Paimon, get lost for now." In all seriousness, the little pixie disappeared in her will, Lumine watched the mansion very clearly from the spot she was hiding, She didn't want to deal with Paimon for now or it'll blow her cover. A man in black was waiting against outside which Lumine found suspicious, she decided to scoot closer just so she could hear if there ever is a conversation going on. "The letter?" Lumine heard your mother said.

"Here." the man gave her an envelope, "Good heres your payment, Don't forget bring it to me every time a letter arrives." Lumine's eyes widened, Is this matter related to you? Does your mother know where your whereabouts?

The man left and your mother went inside the mansion. Lumine got out of her hiding spot immediately running away to come at the Kamisato Estate to tell Ayato what she had discovered.

It's been a year and yet the answer lies within your mother all along!

Upon entering the estate, lumine did not hesitate to barge in the yashiro commission office where she saw ayaka and ayato talking to each other. "Ayato!" she called the commissioner's name, the pale blue haired man turned his head seeing a panting blonde girl, "It's about Y/N!" their ears perked as they heard the name. "What happened did you find her?!" Lumine shooked her head. "I decides to spy on her old residence, her mother is seeing some suspicious man and is talking about some sort of letter, She must know where Y/N is!" Ayato's fist clenched. Your family again. How badly he wants to wipe your old family from existence in Inazuma for life.

"She also have partnered with Lady Nobunaga in the past!" Ayaka said.

"Now now there is no need to rush, what we all know is that the two of them are suspicious. We must investigate this more throughly." Yae Miko said, "Yae!" Lumine said. The kitsune took a glance at the hydro user, with one glance you can feel he's already in a bad mood. "I know you are frustrated but Ayato you cannot attack Nobunaga and Matsuoka Clan without evidence." she spoke which made ayato more annoyed than he already is.

"I can, If killing them is a way just to bring back my wife back. Trust me I will do it." He said. Yae could only sigh, "Ayato, let's not shed bloodshed in this matter, Y/N wouldn't like it. She is after all your mother in law." Ayato clicked his tongue.

"She's not? The moment she decided to abuse my wife infront of me after the engagement banquet, I no longer treat her as one." the hydro user said, "I'll make Sayu keep a look on them." Ayato said, Ayaka purse her lips into a thin line. A panicked thoma entered the room. "My lord this is bad! A rumor has started that you are already seeing Lady Yume!" Yae's eyes lingered in the commissioner.

"I didn't know Lady Nobunaga is that desperate." Yae laughed. "There seems to be a rat spreading a disease in Inazuma." Ayato said chuckling darkly. Ayato left the room to visit the Shuumatsuban's hideout. "Bring me the person who spread malicious lies." He said, It was perfect he didn't practiced his sword once in a while now. He was in a mood for a practice or even murder.

"Yes my lord."

"Sayu." A child rubbing her eyes came out of the dark with a yawn, "Yes?" she said still half asleep. "Go spy in the Matsuoka Residence. If you could infiltrate the mansion it would be much appreciated."

"Yes, can I go back to sleep now?" Ayato nodded and dismissed the young ninja.

A while later a ninja came back disappointment news. "We couldn't find the one started the rumor my lord, apologies." They said, Ayato dismissed them but he was still in a bad mood. So he decided to take a stroll to calm his mind before coming to the Estate to rest.
