So, after I saw how Reimu 'exterminated', more like punishing an amanojaku, a race of youkai that capable of reversing anything or something like that. If she can do it, maybe that's a probability that she can reversing the Hakurei's state of fortune. If only Reimu know better how to use her ability instead whacking her. But deep inside probably the God of Hakure will not approve it. For now, let just leave that matter, now I really need to see Yagokoro to get some medicine. You asked why but the particular reason is to make a first aid box for myself.

"After go down from the Hakurei Shrine, then take a turn that lead to the Bamboo Forest of the Lost." I mumbled when I said that.

Now, I take the path that lead to the Bamboo Forest where Eientei located. But just from the entrance, I can see that it's really deep inside. What do I expected, it's full of bamboo obviously. The chance of getting lost is really high. Unless you have perk as natural living compass or live long enough here or by chance finding your intended destination by really pure luck. But let's not taking dare here since this is the first time I visit here.

"What was Ms. Keine say about this?" 

~Some flashback~

Currently, I just finished fixing a kite of a child that fall due to disproportion on one of the side part. Well, fortunately it didn't torn yet. I saw there is disappointed on their face. A hero always said to protect the children smile.

"But, Uncle, how do we pay?"

"Meh, just go play now, will you?"

"Thank you for your help, Odd Job Uncle!" said a boy to me.

"You're welcome, kid." I replied to him.

Jeez, I don't know if I get called uncle can make me feels pretty old. But whatever, that happiness for him is a precious thing.

"Ufufu...you really a good person, L/N."

When I turned around I see Ms. Keine who just appeared behind me with her sincere smile that make me proud, I think that's like a student that showing their best result on exam to their teacher. 

"Nah, it's better to fill their childhood with a good memories so why not help them make one." I replied to her.

"Maybe I should hire you as a teacher."

"Can I? I'm not a teacher material at all."

"I also not a teacher material to begin with."

"Really?"

"Trust me. Everything is start from zero. Even for me."

"I think, I will give it a try. So, Ms. Keine, where will you going with that basket filled with food?" I asked that while pointing what was on her hand.

"Oh, I will have dinner with my friend."

"You have friend?"

"Of course, she live on the Bamboo Forest of the Lost."

"Why she preferred that place?"

"She is a guide for people when they lost or in need to visit the Eientei."

"May I know her name and her characteristics, please? In case if I have job to go there."

"Very well, her name is Fujiwara no Mokou. White long haired that reach her waist, when you see her you can tell that she is a tomboy by her clothed and the way she talk. Oh she also has a yakitori stand in this village if you would like to try."

"I see, I would like to try it in the future. Thank you for the information Ms. Keine and take care."

After giving me a bye, Ms. Keine then walked away to her supposed friend where she lived. 

~Back to Y/N~

Oh that's right, the first thing I have to do especially in this forest is to find Mokou. Maybe I have to keep going, deeper into the forest. Other than that I hope I see some rabbits so that they can help me to get to Eientei. I remember that the rabbits on here were given knowledge by Eirin in exchange they help her to hide princess Kaguya from the moon emissary.

"Wait, the forest supposed to have humid temperature, right?" I mumbled to myself.

Then, how does this feels so hot here? I try sniffing the air. The aroma of the bamboo are still here, but why does it also let out some burned aroma? When, I try to get deeper, I think I can hear a faint sound. 

"Focus, what is that sound." I say that to make me more concentrated.

When I tried to, the more I focused on that faint sound only to get more headaches. But bit by bit, I think I able to deduced what is that sound. Then, I remember the last time I went into the warzone. Why it give me that vibe again?

"Is that all you can do, miss fire chicken?"

When I turn to the person who said that, surprisingly she is on the sky, flying definitely. I can't help but thinking what will happen if I just stand there doing nothing. Then, some pillar of fire came from below her.

"Oh, ya not see all of it yet, NEET princess!"

What appear from that fire pillar is another woman that has a long white hair with a pair of wing made of fire. I think, no, she definitely Mokou from what Ms. Keine told me about.

"I would like to see it, now will you?" the black hair girl or Kaguya told that to her.

"You wretch! Taste this!!" 

Oh, not again! If it's you again backdoor goddess, I will definitely speed up my revenge against you! But the first thing I have to do right now is stay away from their fight

Oh, not again! If it's you again backdoor goddess, I will definitely speed up my revenge against you! But the first thing I have to do right now is stay away from their fight. A pulse send to the brain. It process the command and send it to motoric limbs and responded by moving. After that, I can hear a high intensity sound of two force collided and causing an explosion. I remember part of danmaku. Even if it doesn't make lethal injuries, it still hurt.

"I hope I able to get a safe spot when they done with their fight." I said it while start to walking after running from the warzone.

'THWACK'

I think I heard some branch that breaking. Which mean.....

"God****** TEWI!!!"

~Meanwhile with an apprentice of the moon's brain~

"I don't know who is it but you have my sympahty."
