Moon Princess

Endless Cavity

Rikuo called out to Mizu who had been standing far away from them.

Mizu walked towards Rikuo but this time she did not dare to approach Youri since the incident at the Sky Palace, she did not even expect that Youri could ignore him to this extent. Though Rikuo who initially often questioned him can be very reliable and care for him. This makes Mizu so wrong and sad. Every time he saw Youri's face, a sense of tightness filled his heart.

"Are you sure you want to go home?" Youri asked Mizu without looking at her. It made Mizu shocked and feel even more sad.

"Um.. Yeah, I want to go home, I've been here too long. Please help me." Mizu said while trying to hold back her tears.

"Rikuo, do you know the conditions for controlling endless cavities?"

"Eh? Whahuh? Ak.. I don't know anything about the terms you're referring to. Eidoshia didn't even say anything about controlling the endless cavities." Rikuo asked with a surprised and confused expression.

"so. You rest, tomorrow we gather here again and I'll help Mizu return to her home world." Youri.

"A.. Are you really going to help me?" Ask Mizu to make sure. He tried to grab Youri's hand and smiled because Youri was willing to help him.

But when Mizu wanted to reach Youri's hand, she refused and turned her face towards the lotus pond to avoid Mizu's gaze. Mizu who was shocked by Youri's treatment of her who was blatantly trying to dodge her immediately cried. He immediately ran away leaving Youri and Rikuo in the backyard.

Kichiro tries to chase after Mizu but she is stopped when Mizu enters her room and immediately closes the door. While the bewildered Rikuo goes awry between chasing after Mizu or asking Youri for her actions.

the evening

Mizu, Youri, and Rikuo sat in a circle in a room after finishing dinner. Kichiro sat by the door and kept watch so that no one would disturb them.

Youri briefly explains the endless cavities to Rikuo and Mizu, how things work, offerings, and what to do. Youri then cuts his palm with a knife along his palm and puts his blood in a bottle, then he tells Mizu to do the same.

Youri intended to prevent the endless cavity energy from absorbing too much of Mizu's blood offerings if the blood offerings needed were enough to stabilize the endless cavity energy. After the blood from the bottle is poured into the endless cavity and Mizu manages to return, Rikuo must immediately seal the endless cavity so as not to invite other demons and enter into the endless cavity.

After finishing everything, Youri had Mizu and Rikuo rest. Kichiro is still asked to accompany Mizu but Mizu refuses on the grounds that she does not want to bother.

- Mid Night

AAAAAHH....!!!

Tap..

Rikuo and Youri who were deep asleep suddenly woke up and rushed to the source of the sound after hearing someone's scream.

Rikuo pulls out his tail and ears and tries to repel the demons, while Youri takes out the butterflies and tries to save Mizu. Rikuo faced the fox demon with the original form of the fox demon, he felt familiar to the fool. He suddenly fell down because the snake demon attacked him with a punch from behind using his tail.

Ahhhhh...!!!

The sound of Mizu's cry made Youri who was fighting the spider demon panic. He immediately spread the butterfly venom powder towards the spider demon that made him unable to move and then died of poisoning. Youri rushes towards where Mizu is but the scorpion demon clamps Mizu's left arm until her blood is scattered on the ground, even some of her blood goes into endless cavities.

Not only that, though, the blood bottle belonging to Mizu and Youri who were in Mizu's arms crashed and clashed until it broke the bottle and entered into an endless cavity that made the endless cavity then react. Youri who panicked saw Mizu get injured with a grimacing face holding back the pain became angry and her heart was racing, however, Mizu and Tsukiko's faces look so similar that everyone thinks that Mizu is Tsukiko's reincarnation.

The anger-stricken Youri spread out her hands and a horde of butterflies spread around the scorpion demon, Youri then gathered her energy and formed a sword in her right hand. He then slashed the tail of the scorpion that tried to attack him. But the unexpected thing happened, the blood of the scorpion demon instead entered into the endless cavity and made the endless cavity energy become chaotic and unstable.

Suddenly a blackish, tentacle-shaped purple mist pulls the scorpion demon into an endless cavity, Mizu who is still squeezed by the scorpion's stealth claw comes into the endless cavity.

"Simplified..!!!" Shouted Youri.

Eve killed him suddenly felt so dense that the little demons were frightened and went away to save themselves, but Youri was already filled with anger until her butterfly mob slaughtered the demons blindly.

The snake demon and fox demon that attacked Rikuopun rushed to escape to save themselves, while Rikuo who saw the dangerous situation tried to ease Youri's anger.

"Hey. hey.. Do you want to kill me too?! I still don't want to die!!" Shouted Rikuo who could not think of any other way to resuscitate Youri.

Youri suddenly regained consciousness as the seven-colored lotus flower bloomed perfectly and gave off a golden white light, the light pointing towards Youri's face as if caressing her. Youri then calmed down, her body collapsing right at the edge of the lotus pond. His closed eyes looked wet and his face was filled with sadness. That golden white light slowly faded and disappeared.

When the situation calmed down and Youri no longer went berserk, Rikuo immediately made a seal over the endless cavity. The endless cavity let out a purple radiance as if resisting, Rikuo was worried that he would be sucked into the endless cavity. He then took out his energy to strengthen the seal that held the endless cavity.

After all the chaos ended, Rikuo then called out to Kichiro who had been scared since then and hid behind the door. Kichiro immediately approaches Youri and breaks her into the house.

in the outside world

Brukk...!!!

Two human figures fell on the back of an old temple after a blackish purple glow from the sky. The two figures are Mizu and the scorpion demon who was seriously injured and turned into a human form.

Looks like someone just arrived at that place and then brought Mizu.
