"——Thank you for coming here, everyone."

That afternoon in a room inside the Spirit mansion, Kotori spoke while looking over to everyone. For some reason, the lighting in the room was very dim, with the spotlight just illuminating the area around the table.

Meanwhile, Kotori placed her elbows against the tables, posing with her fingers intertwined with each other. Though the reason wasn't understood, it seemed as if her commander's impression had increased compared to usual.

Already in the center of the room, Tohka, Origami, Yoshino, Kaguya, Yuzuru, Miku, Natsumi, Nia, and Shirou, these all-star Spirits had gathered up in full force. Everybody was sitting around the table, each person in a different posture of either caressing their cheeks or stretching their wrists.

"So... what's this meeting about? I still have to make dinner before Master comes back."

 Shirou asked, issuing a slight yawn, a bit tired from cleaning the Itsuka house that noon.

Kotori gently nodded her head and proceeded to address Shirou's question.

"The situation should've been explained to you already. This afternoon, ——Shido managed to convince the new spirit to come with him to our house."

Upon hearing this, Tohka tilted her head, crossing her arms with a puzzled expression.

"Well, isn't that good news? Why do you look so serious about it?"

"Ah...... sorry, sorry. So it seems that hasn't been explained yet. Well..."

While Kotori attempted to explain, Nia abruptly interjected.

"Does it have something to do with the news about the end of the world?"

"Wha......!?"

"E-End of the world....?"

As Tohka and Yoshino displayed expressions of shock, Kotori comically slapped the side of Nia's head.

"Although the origin is correct, pay attention to the method of expressing!"

"Ehehe, sorry, sorry, I got carried away too fast."

"Fumu, what's the deal with that news, Kotori?"

"Question, what is going on?"

The Yamai sisters asked, symmetrically tilting their heads.

"Well... simply put, the ocean just disappeared overnight, and the new spirit Shido is bringing over is the cause"

"Hey!"

Listening to Kotori's words, Tohka's face frowned.

"She stole the ocean... does that mean she's evil?"

Kotori shook her head, attempting to clarify the situation to the concerned group.

"No, Tohka, it's not that she stole the ocean out of malice. It's a bit more complicated. The new spirit has the power to manipulate water on a global scale. The ocean disappearing is more of an unintended consequence."

While Tohka was still processing the revelation, Natsumi replied with her eyes half-open.

"So, what you're saying is that she's not aware of the havoc she's causing?"

Kotori nodded, "That's what we suspect."

"Er, Kotori-san, what is our role in that? You certainly gathered us here because you want us to do something, right?"

"Wouldn't it be better if we didn't interfere and let Shido do his job?"

Miku spoke while making a cute motion, pointing her fingers towards her chin. Before Origami joined in with an inquisitive expression.
