The sky glowed for a moment.

For some people, its trail left a scar at the beautiful clear sky they adored that night.

In certain eyes, it left both bad and good omen.

In her eyes, her heart drummed in hope and anticipation.

Before they realized, the person they should watch closely under Oyakata's order already sprinted following that falling light.

She was fast and Pillars began questioning her ability, thinking this Onmyouji was pulling a kid's play to Wind Pillar on the game before.

It takes almost a minute and half to catch up with her. They're in open field, soft grass under their foot illuminated faint silver of moonlight.

They abruptly stop.

Under the blossoming sakura tree, two people stand apart, each maintaining their distance as if their existence would crash one another

"you monster," the silver one chuckled, plain blue eyes held no emotion. "Any normal human would gravely be injured by now."

"Then again... You're the one who called me..." she murmured. "This situation already considered not normal, to begin with..." 

A single glance at the Onmyouji, and that ice in her plum eyes could have frozen boiling water.

They had skipped something.

"Knowledge is the heart of everything. And should a man know as much as a God..."

Aoyuri's smile was anything more than cold itself.

"...would there even be a difference?"

Everyone who heard that took a long moment to process it, silence thick and heavy.

...This is more than a little blasphemous.

"It's true... The Age of Gods already passed, and it's the only Choice that really matters." Her lips stretched a little and such simple words make them flinched.
