Nozumo exited the castle in secrecy, his cloak worn all the way to his head. It is time he goes to a sorcerer who can tell him what happened to his loyal mage, Kira.  It has been an exhausting week, always attending to the needs of an incompetent fake King.  The king in throne is not as powerful as the rightful king but he is deceiving enough to be the first to stain the throne. On the busy street of the city, the mage disguised as the king's eunuch walks his way inside a narrow alley. With a token from the sorcerer, he is transported inside a shop, the one he used to visit with his young master. "It has been quite the time, Nozumo." He looks ahead and saw the woman who once deceived him into giving a precious crystal.  "Where is your mas

 Mizuko spent the day helping out with Miranda at the shop. While she helps, her thoughts wandered off to Kenshi. The day ended without her seeing him and it is kind of new. Earlier, when Miranda brought her to the town, the witch told her their town is found in the middle of Hikari. It is said to be the heart of the Kingdom. Miranda also told her not to be deceived for some demons disguised themselves as human around here. But not every demon's transformation is stable and so some transform in crowds most often. "There must be good demons out there, right? There should be..." "I am demon myself," Roya tells her. "Am I good, my lady?" "Oh yes, you are!" She said and then stretches her arms as she yawns. "I didn't know witches could be that busy. Miss Miranda isn't as bad after all." "Are you sleepy, my lady?" &n

 Yushiro finally made it back inside the castle. In the throne room, he bends one knee, lowered his head down in front of the king who is sitting on the throne.  "Father, my guard had failed me in executing the crown prince of Yami." It hurts his ego to say it but he has to admit to his defeat. "I deserve to be punished for my carelessness." "I do not expect anything from you, my son. But I acknowledge how you work hard just to lose," says the King.  Yushiro secretly glares at his father's remarks. Before raising his head, he dismissed the scorn on his face and pretends to be sorry. "Forgive me, father." He has gone tired of this act but it is the only door for him to sit on that throne. It is not to be called king that he wishes for but for an army and authority.

 Mizuki continues to run hysterically towards nowhere when suddenly she felt her heart skip a beat and she began to feel weak, falling on her knees as she held her heart. She catches her breath, coughing from the sudden pain in her chest.  When her breathing calmed, she swallowed hard. She was about to stand to continue running away when she notices the markings on her hands. She tries to wipe it away, but it just spread up to her arms. "No! What is this?!" she cries, hysterically rubbing them off of her.  When it wouldn't go off, she highs herself, crying helplessly. Then suddenly she remembers that lady who told her not to make a promise with a demon. With her lips trembling, she sobs further. Is this why her mother died? Is it because she trusted a demon too? 

After the puppet show, Mizuko walked awkwardly besides Kenshi, nibbling her lip as she wants to say something but just can't bring herself to say things. She is about to go damn crazy.  Before meeting Kenshi, she used to always think when watching a movie how leading girls just suddenly act like someone else around the guys they like. Leading girls would act shy, sweet and vulnerable when they find out they have feelings for the leading guy. Mizuko never understood those until now that she is with Kenshi. She has that shyness and she's embarrassed for reasons she can't understand. Was it for crying last night? For hurting him or for being afraid of him? "Are you heading straight back to the shop or are you out to find more about the King?" Kenshi asked her. This makes her a little less awkward since he started the talk.  "I-uh
