Chapter 6: Meeting the Boss

In the next day,

Asuka along with Ren returned to the inn, but Asuka is walking slowly behind Ren.
"What are you doing....!?" He asked,

"Ugh...I just have this hunch that the others told them about my relationship with Hijikata and Chizuru...," She said,
"Honestly, why do you have to be so embarrassed? I didn't have any problems telling that old man about my relation with him," Ren said about Kazama,

"Well...that's you and this is me...it's totally different..!"

"Hou? Want me to tell them how you sometimes dress up with the Shinsengumi haori?" Ren said teasingly,
"You wouldn't...!"

"Who knows...?" Ren smilingly said,
"Don't you dare! I think I'm gonna die of embarrassment...!" Asuka grumbled,

But what they don't know...is that both Hijikata and Chizuru are listening on their conversation from their room.
Apparently, they weren't able to sleep last night thinking about their great granddaughter...and now listening to her deep admiration...they couldn't help but find it.....CUTE!

Later on, the others soon finds themselves in the dining room once again. However, both Ren and Asuka are nowhere to be found. The ARC (Anti-Rasetsus Corps) can guess the reason why those two wouldn't show up.

One is too shy to face her ancestors whom she admires deeply.

One is either too shy or too annoyed to meet his ancestor because he was thrown out of the family.

"Haaaa...those two are a really hopeless couple," They all thought inside their mind,

However, just when they have finished their breakfast...a loud sirens rang out.
"What's happening?!" Hijikata asked,

"Another attack outside, come on guys!"  Soon the youngsters all ran outside the dining room,
"Whoa Whoa! Take us with you guys too!" Shiranui shouted,

"You guys haven't gotten the proper weapons, please wait here," Tachibana said,

They all rushed out of the inn, but the others have no intention of staying., they also rushed out of the inn following the others.

Outside on the streets, many soldiers can be seen heading towards the wall.
"Any warriors that are available! Head to the wall! We have a B grade situation!"

"B-grade? What's a B-grade situation?" Hijikata asked,

"Who cares! Follow them!" Shiranui shouted,
And so, they rush towards the wall.

"Whoa...!" In front of the gate, there stands quite a lot of people armed with many weapons. Close to 30 or even 40 of them...

"What's going on here?" Hijikata asked one of the men gathered around,

"Didn't you hear? There's a B-grade situation outside the wall, apparently a lot of those Rasetsus are outside," One of them said,

After saying that, the man also looked over the group. "Sir, if you do not have any Spiroton Gear, I suggest you stay back inside the walls." The man politely said,
"Yes, leave it to us!" Another one said,

"THE GATE WILL SOON BE OPEN!!" A man shouted,

"Wish us luck," One of the men said with a smile, and these men soon equip themselves with their Spiriton Gear.

The group then soon were escorted away from the gate by a guard.
"Will they be fine?" Chizuru asked the guard,

"Don't worry miss, the guards above the walls will also support those on the front lines. This is also a B-grade situation, it sometimes happens," The guard reassured her,
