Kyojuro's POV
We nailed it! We passed the Final Selection! Yeah!
It wasn't easy. We encountered a morphed demon! He must be the one who devoured the other participants after oniichan passed last time. We have to team up with the other brave participants... including those Kocho siblings... *irk mark* I'll tell oniichan about it later.
"Obanai-Kun! Hurry up! We're almost there!"
"Can't you see that I'm trying?!! We ran for hours every day just to return faster!"
"Don't give up just yet! We're trying to become a strong Pillar like oniichan! At least we must impress him! I can't wait to meet him!" Right after I said that Obanai-Kun suddenly stops. Hmm? Did I say something wrong? "Why did you stop, Obanai-kun?"
Obanai-Kun looks at me seriously."Kyojuro-Kun,... do you think Yoru-Kun would sneak attack on us again?"
*Silence*
...
"Is the path clear?" Obanai asks as we hide behind some baskets made of a wooden cane.
I take a peek and observe the path, visible trees, and even the rooftops. "No signs of oniichan. After those ladies pass us, we'll speak to our front yard and hide somewhere."
"Note taken." Obanai-Kun and I continue to hide in the shadow. We wait patiently for the ladies to pass us. As they get nearer, we unintentionally hear their conversations.
"The feared White Fang thugs had been captured? That's a relief!"
"Now, we're able to live in peace once more! Thanks to that kid."
"Huh? A kid? Are you sure you're not drunk at that time?"
"I'm serious! If you don't believe me, you can ask everyone else who witnessed it! He sends some needles flying towards the White Fang members' neck in one shot! They all passed out instantly! The leader tried to behead him, but he suddenly broke the sword in one bite!"
"Oh my! Who is this kid?"
"He's one of our neighbor's sons! He has golden hair with red tips with a face unfazed of threats! He's pretty charming. Most of the young girls already have a crush on him." The two continue to chat as they getting farther away from us.
Meanwhile, Obanai-Kun and I are sweating bullets. "Obanai-Kun, did you hear what those ladies said? I'm not hallucinating right now, am I?"
"I'm afraid that we're not. There's no one else in this neighborhood that has golden hair with red tips except your family. Based on their description, Yoru-Kun was probably behind all of this..." Obanai-Kun face turns paler. "Shot senbon needles... bite a sword and broke it... his ability is just unbelievable."
"We better stay alert. The path is now clear. Let's move forward."
"Alright..." Obanai-Kun tries to regain his strength and follows me to the front yard. We peek to observe the area for any signs of danger. Seeing that there's none, we proceed to hide separately. We continue to stare at the sliding door, deciding our next move more calculatingly.
*Sliding door suddenly opens, revealing stoic-faced Yoru and confused Senjuro*
"Otouto, Obanai-Kun, I know you're here. Come in. Dinner is ready. I won't ask twice."
Giving up, we get out of our hiding spots. "Damn. How did you knew we're here, Yoru-Kun?"
"Yeah! We tried so hard to get here unnoticed! How did you do it oniichan?"
