“What do you think you are doing?!” Heizou exclaimed at the wandering Ronin as soon as they news broke about a certain engagement around town. Kokomi and the others was aware too It felt like Kazuha made somewhat a wrong decision. “Kazuha why did you do that?” Kokomi asked in a calm manner, Kokomi knew Kazuha couldn't have made that hastily judgement in a swift, Kazuha only gave them a silent answer closing his eyes.

“She is all alone now, Y/N wouldn't want this either so I accepted the marriage proposal.” All of them went silent, Heizou clicked his tongue as he leaves the room. “Heizou!” Kokomi exclaimed, Kazuha stopped the maiden. “I'll talk to him your excellency.” He gave the priestess a smile.

Outside the shrine Kazuha spotted Heizou starring at the beauty on watatsumi. “Don't be too gloom for me. It was my decision.” Kazuha said joining him. Heizou frowned, “Did you know that the possible suspects for Y/N's disappearance is her sister or father?” Kazuha gave him a seious stare, he gave heizou a pat on his shoulder.

“I know, this is also why I accepted the engagement. If you want to know what the enemy is thinking then you should join them is it not?” Heizou halted confused, “You k-knew? But how? We didn't tell you..” He only said.

“Unlike Ayaka, I am a friend that doesn't take many sides either I have always had my suspicions since Y/N gone missing when we were six years old.” He said.

“It just so happens that I had smell a different scent on Irin as time goes by.” Kazuha said in a serious tone, “But you do know Irin loves you right?” Heizou asked, The Ronin gave a sigh. “I know it, long time ago I just didn't want to acknowledge it because I really just truly consider her as a sister nothing more, nothing less.”

“Then do you like Y/N?” Heizou blurted the question out of the sudden that made Kazuha stop for a moment, “What If I do?” Kazuha asked his friend. “But does that really matter now?” Kazuha said sadly, Heizou could only look away.

“Kazuha! Heizou!” Lumine said panting as she catched her breath, Kazuha and Heizou looked at the traveler as Paimon was also catching her breath the flying pixie halted for a moment as she faced the two. “I found Y/N's kanzashi! Look is this it?” Lumine asked, Heizou's eyes widened gritting his teeth. It is indeed the hairclip he gave you.

The only thing is that he knew it's yours, because he just didn't buy something that has many replica on the streets. He had that specially made for you. Kazuha noticed the Heizou's reaction, “Where did you find it Traveler?”

Paimon was the one who spoke, “We found it in a box, The treasure hoarder got it! There was also many things in the box, but this we found and it felt very familiar and then the traveler remembered that it's the same kanzashi you gave Y/N so she thought it might be hers!”

Heizou nodded. “It is indeed Y/N's. There are no other designs like this because I specifically made it for her.” all of them was silent, day by day the possibility of you being alive is decreasing.

“Hmmm? Interesting.” Mona said as she laughed seeing her divination. “You seem happy what happened?” You asked you have just finished on training and Mona was doing her divination. “Nothing in particular I just saw interesting on my divination.” Mona said, reading a divination infront of you it seemed like it was yours, “What did you see?” You shook your head.

“Two people. There are two people whose fate entangled to you.” You gave her a weird look. “What is that supposed to mean?” You said, the astrologer only gave you a smirk. “Who knows?”

But in truth is that she does know what it is, But it's more interesting to anticipate what happens next is it not? “Oh speaking of which the engagement party is tomorrow is it? What do you plan on doing?” You gave Mona a smile, “What do you mean by that? I'll congratulate my sister and my friend of course.”

Mona felt strange, You were smiling but she felt that you have more ulterior motives than just doing that.

Your brows frowned as you recalled the dream you had yesterday night.

Dark, Ground filled with blood. You saw a silhoutte she turns her head towards you to see it was your Mother Kira. She held your shoulder which made you cry. “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”

You were confused, “Mom! Wh-What are you..” Your mother shook your shoulders aggresively. Suddenly the surroundings changed towards your mother's final moments. “I-Irin.. truth... be careful..”

You woke up panting for air in your room as you check your room; There was no one. It was still midnight, The dream you finally knew what your mother told you on her final words. “Be careful of Irin?” Was your mother trying to hint something?

But that dream definitely taught you— Your biological sister is dangerous, She may not what she appears her to be.

“Ugh, Mona let's go now!” You exclaimed. Mona was still upstairs; Ryu and Mona will be going with you to the Yamashita Estate. “I heard there will be distinguised guest, my lady such as Yae Miko.” The Guuji or the Narukami Shrine huh? You snapped your fingers. “Is my engagement gift ready?” You asked, your servants nodded as they brought out the flowers that you personally choose, Yesterday you came up with a plan. To ease your suspicion.

“It is ready Lady Y/N.” You smiled as you fixed your dress, It was a kimono with a shade of red— The servants bowed their head as Mona came down, she has a cloak covering her body. “What are you doing?” You asked as you facepalm. “Go dress yourself again!” You said.

Mona only rolled her eyes, She unclasped her cloak seeing that she had also dressed herself up she wore a little dress that covered her knee, with a beautiful floral blue color. “Good.”

“My lady, The lotus will be delivered first.” You nodded, as you now prepare to left the mansion. “Please, comeback safely young miss.” Your servants said you gave them a wave and a smile.

Because I won't be dying again.

LOTUS — The spiritual meaning of the flower is rebirth and resurrection. The daily activities of the lotus are connected to the resurrection of life.
