22 Chapter 20 The Scroll (2/2)
”That won't work on me, you know?”
”Oh really...? How about this then?”
The silver-haired girl quickly went up to Rika after she put down Miku but before she could get close enough to do anything Rika just teleported away
Damn...She got away...
She clicked her tongue in frustration towards the cat humanoid that had escaped.
I guess I'll report about what just happened when we get back...
She carried the unconscious Miku on her back and casted a teleportation spell to save time instead of just going back by foot which would take even more time.
Inside of a abandoned-looking japanese mansion that you'd see during the meiji era a woman with the twins Rika and Aoi who were currently under her full control...
”Fuck! I didn't expect that the fox would get a descendant... I can't believe the frame up that I did with Emperor Konoe being the main part didn't completely destroy her...”
In a irritated voice the woman named Ten shouted in anger to her discover of Yui's existence.
---
”It looks like someone has possesed Rika.”
Yui reported to Hideo who was like usual sitting inside the lounge area like a carefree person.
”Did you manage to find out anything else?”
This is such a pain... Why do I have to answer this...?
”She got away before I did.”
Yui forced herself to answer even though her pride was preventing her to do so.
Hideo tried to not get mad at her mistake by just keeping quite for a moment then he replied: ”Ok, You girls will do some missions for now while I figure out what to do about this whole problem with the twins going missing.”
Looks like this is gonna get in the way of future missions and orders... I need to get those two back ASAP and if I don't it might affect their morale...
Then he finally let Yui go back into the dorms to check on Miku's state then get some rest afterwards.
Miku had already been concious again by the time Yui had entered the room but still feeling weak from using a lot of her mana to buy some time and also defend herself both at the same time.
”Mentor...?”
Miku spoke up seemingly like she had drunk alchohol and had gotten drunk afterwards.

Is she acting this way because of her low mana...? Is this how Oni are when they're low on it...?
Yui just stared back at the drunk-like female oni who was sitting on a futon like she hasn't stood up yet ever since she woke up.
She just ignored her and just started medidating in a corner thinking that she's probably just half-asleep but suddenly-
Miku started to slowly crawl like a infant towards her.
”Are you low on mana?”
Yui asked opening an eye and seeing Miku's face only a few inches away from her.
Miku nodded instead of saying ”Yes” as a reply which Yui found a little wierd...
If i remember right oni can consume human blood to regenerate it quickly but...
Yui suddenly remembered that they couldn't just go and kill any humans since Hideo would just apprehend them the moment they start doing it and thinks of an alternative way to get it...
