IN THE END, Kaori and Muichiro successfully slayed the lower moon together without getting any heavy or serious injuries. Kaori looked around, searching for the sheath that she threw during battle.

Her eyebrows raised slightly when she spotted her familiar katana safety cap lying on the grass, untouched. She ran towards that area and picked it up, putting her katana blade in it before attaching it to her belt.

"So.. we are done here..?" Muichiro piped in, appearing behind Kaori who glanced behind to see Muichiro's unfazed look.

"Yeah, we should head back. It's almost dawn.." Kaori replied, glancing at the sky which had faint hues of orange that were going to envelop the darkness of the skies.

"Hmm... what about that scum there?" Muichiro exclaimed, pointing at Kamo who was trembling in fear after witnessing the fight between the two young slayers with the lower moon while hiding behind a big bush.

Kamo quickly noticed that both Kaori and Muichiro were looking straight at him, each having different expressions on their face. Muichiro gave him an icky look while Kaori stared him up and down.

"Ah! Forgive me for my idiotic actions-... I- I just wanted the safety of the village" He stuttered, jumping out from the bush and standing awkwardly in front of them.

'Yeah sure, what a loser.. I bet he underestimated our skills since we are youngsters!' Kaori narrowed her eyes, glaring slightly at the man who smiled awkwardly.

'Ish!! Just thinking about it makes me angry!! I wanna beat him up so badly but I can't because he is a normal human!!' She growled silently, glaring daggers at Kamo making him sweatdrop.

"Yeah okay, because I know some manners unlike someone, we'll dismiss your actions," Kaori exclaimed, forcing a fake smile.

"Thank-"

"No," Muichiro stated out loud, catching the two attention. "I'm not letting that scum's behavior go."

"Muichiro-kun. Just let it go. No need to cause a fuss over some stupid guy who is older than us, bigger than us but acts cowardly." Kaori purposely said out loud, leaning towards Muichiro.

"Funny, I can hear you guys you know.." Kamo chuckles awkwardly.

Muichiro stared at Kaori, his eyes brightening for those few seconds before glancing back at Kamo and then putting on his signature unfazed (don't care) look.

"Fine." The long-haired boy firmly replied, narrowing his hazy mint green orbs.

"Let's head back now. I'll treat you to some food like I promised before!" Kaori exclaimed, staring at Muichiro who noticed the small scratch on her cheek.

"No, we go to the butterfly lady's place first. You need to get that treated." He pointed out as Kaori wiped the small amount of blood streaming from the scratch.

"No need, it's just a small scratch- it's not that deep. I'll get it treated by myself-"

"No. We are going to the strange butterfly lady's place." He stated once again.
