(3RD POV)
[It's been two weeks since the incident of Sakujirou. It's truly times of peaceful. Until... Ayaka gives a distress call for the trio at Komore Teahouse. And when they got there... It's seems quiet.]
Paimon: "How strange... It's never this quiet here."
Taroumaru: "Woof, woof... woof!"[Taroumaru barks numerous times towards the trio.]
Musashi: "...Huh?"
Lumine: "Taroumaru... seems anxious?"
Paimon: "Thoma's playing his ventriloquist game again, huh?Thoma... Thoma...!"[Paimon tries to call out Thoma, but he didn't get out. Taroumaru keeps barking.]
Taroumaru: "Woof! Woof! ...Woof!"
Paimon: "Hey, you can come out now... Paimon's seen you already..."[Paimon checks the back, but found no sign of Thoma.]
Lumine: "Paimon?"
Paimon: "Huh, not a peep... Ugh, so where the heck is he, then?"
Taroumaru: "Woof, woof, woof! Woof!"
Paimon: "Huh? What's got Taroumaru so worked up today? He's always such a good boy..."[But then, Ayaka comes running in. She seems in panic.]
Musashi: "Huh, Ayaka?"[Ayaka swiftly grabs Musashi's hand. She looks worried. Musashi can see it from her eyes.]
Ayaka: "Hello, have either of you seen Thoma?"
Paimon: "No, we thought he'd be with you! Why, has something happened?"[Ayaka's grip on Musashi's hand gets stronger. She truly in fear of losing another friend.]
Ayaka: "Then it as I feared... On the way here, I heard that Thoma had been taken away by the Tenryou Commission. I wasn't certain whether it was true, so I came right here. The fact that he hasn't arrived here as we arranged suggests that it is true."[Ayaka tries to tell what she truly heard.]
Ayaka: "The Raiden Shogun is holding a Vision Hunt Ceremony at the Statue of the Omnipresent God today, to mark the 100th Vision seized under the decree. And the 100th Vision bearer in question... the one who will have their Vision seized, I fear... is Thoma."[The trio were shocked by this revelation.]
Musashi: "WHAT!?"
Lumine: "T-That means-"
Paimon: "Hold up a second... So the ceremony that Thoma said the Tenryou Commission was busy preparing for... that was this Vision Hunt Ceremony? And he was the target all along?"
Ayaka: "...I believe so. The shogun and the Tenryou Commission see the ceremony as a milestone. With the 100th Vision, they wish to mark the success of the Vision Hunt Decree to date. This cannot happen. I must go and rescue him!"[Musashi swiftly pulls Ayaka's hand. She tries to calm her down.]
Musashi: "W-Wait, Ayaka! Calm down, okay? Remember... you are the Shirasagi Himegimi."
Paimon: "Yeah! Like it or not, you represent the whole Yashiro Commission. So if you go and pull a stunt like that, you're basically declaring you and the Raiden Shogun are enemies now, right? And by doing it so publicly, you might be implicating a lot of other people from the Yashiro Commission, too..."[Ayaka shakes her head. She totally worried for Thoma being executed.
Ayaka: "There is no other option... I must act with haste - the ceremony is about to begin. I will not abandon Thoma like this. He is my friend! To think that not long ago, we were... all eating hotpot together... We-"
