"This is too good," I smirked evilly as I turned my chair to look at my 4 hostages, who were glaring at me ferociously from their chairs.
"What's your purpose of doing this, huh?!" Arihoshi looked a bit angry while saying this.
"Eh? Doing what exactly?" I tilted my head in amusement, the light from my computer illuminating my hood so that my face couldn't really be seen, chuckling darkly.
"What did you do to Ayame-chan?!" the Princess was not a happy camper all right.
"Well, let's just say that she's no longer going to be a nuisance to my plan. Anyway, please stop talking, I need to focus on-"
"Master, I apologise for disturbing you, but I have shocking news," my helper suddenly appeared out of nowhere, holding a video camera in his hand. I blinked as he inserted the memory card into my laptop, which immediately connected to my TV and showed a video.
My jaws dropped as I watched Himeno Ayame return with 4 other males who were obviously older than her, and their battle against Jorogumo, ending with Jorogumo's purification.
"WHAT?!" I was furious, to say the least. The 4 magical mirrors of the Enma tribe had been given to those 4, and Himeno has returned?! This was the worst thing that could happen, especially if they wanted to stop my plan.
"Ayame-san's okay!" Tsukinami smiled happily, probably relieved that his friend was okay.
"That's great," Amano sighed.
"Oh don't worry you 4," I spun around to face them once more, this time with a scowl on my clown-like face. "I'll be dealing with them soon. After all, I can't let them destroy my years-old plan."
"W-What? W-What do you mean by 'dealing with them'?" Amano grew pale hearing that.
"What do you think, Amano?" I stood up and walked over to him, stopping right in front of him before I stated, "I'm going to make sure they stay OUT OF MY WAY.", staring at him with an eerie face. He yelped out in fright.
The Princess immediately shouted, "Hey, you leave Keisuke alone!"
"Don't worry," I laughed, sending shivers down their spines. "The only one I'll be hurting is Himeno and the wielders of the Enma tribe's mirrors."
I then turned to look at the screen, where the 4 males were chatting with Himeno.
I won't let them ruin my plan, which I've been planning and itching to set into action for so long, I scowled once more.
They are more dangerous than I thought, I suddenly realised.
The 5 of them have to be taken out, no matter what.
