"Is anyone else's grimoire speaking to them? Or is it just me?"

Still in the barriers, the group looked at Erissa.

"Shizukucchi has been speaking to me, but it was about when I was going to release her," Mimmy replied.

"Joshua hasn't spoken to me," Blythe said, gripping the grimoire in her hands.

"Yoichi has been talking to me about Sura, it is quite annoying," Guren rolled his eyes.

"Same here. Sura is going crazy over Hokori," Satou sighed.

"Kirin just wants to know when she can get out of being a grimoire," Ryusei said.

"Mizuchi hasn't really spoken, but she's been talking to herself sometimes and I can hear it," Chelsea laughed nervously.

"Erissa, what is Yokubo saying?" Satou asked, remembering Erissa asked them about the grimoires.

"Well, I have been hearing Setsuna-chan cry a bit. Though, I don't know if it's actually crying. She also whispers stuff like 'Why her?' It's pretty sad, she whimpers a lot too," Erissa answered, looking at her grimoire.

"Cry? Is she in pain or something?" Ryusei asked.

"Tsushima-kun, it is not right to question a girl's reason for crying! You must ask, not assume!" Mimmy crossed her arms.

"Then, should we ask her?" Ryusei looked at Erissa.

"I'm afraid that releasing grimoires require magic energy, which the barriers absorb. So, no, we can't ask her," Guren responded.

"Erissa could try and release Yokubo, she hasn't used magic since we got captured," Blythe suggested.

"Then go ahead, Erissa," Guren smiled.

Erissa nodded and put her hand on her grimoire's purple gem, slowly turning into a human.

"Do you need me to grip your breasts, Eri-tan?~" Yokubo asked, smirking at her master.

"S-Setsuna-chan! No! I called you here to ask you something," Erissa glared.

"Ask away, Eri-tan~"

"Why were you crying?"

Yokubo froze and looked at Erissa, who looked ready to kill someone.

"How did you know?"

"I could hear your cries," Erissa replied, putting her hand near her knife.

"R-Right! W-Well.. um.."

"Setsuna-chan!"

Yokubo flinched and looked at her master.

"S-Sorry! I was.. um.. crying because.. well.."

"I got it!"

Erissa and Yokubo looked at Mimmy, who smirked at the two.

"I know why Yokubocchi was crying! Now, I remember how Shizukucchi said something about Yokubocchi having a crush on Hokorin! Now, Guren-kyun and Satori-kun both had said their grimoires were talking about each other, which led me to one conclusion!" Mimmy explained.

"And what is that conclusion?" Guren asked.

Mimmy smirked and put her arms up.

"Hokorin and Suracchi are dating, meaning Yokubocchi was rejected at the beach and Suracchi and Hokorin confessed to each other!" Mimmy exclaimed.
