Moon Princess
Chap 27's
"Damn..!!!" Rikuo hit the table in front of him with his left hand while bowing to the table in front of him. With the power of his stealth, the table was broken and the fragments were piercing Rikuo's hand.
Instantly the entire room became silent, all eyes were on him. Youri who was sitting beside him could also only be speechless at Rikuo's annoyance. In that silence, Rikuo's tears trickled down and he began to sob as Youri patted his left shoulder. Although his body was already in Mizu's house, but his mind was still left in the place of the fight earlier and seized so much of his attention. He could not stop thinking about all the painful realities and constantly blamed himself.
"Hey... Are you going to destroy Mizu's house?" key tried to break the tension. He thought of no other way for everyone to not feel awkward, Rikuo was weak and still filled with anger, Youri who looked confused faced Rikuo, Mizu who was shocked by all this, was shocked by all this, plus there's someone dying in Mizu's house. Moreover, it seemed that he was not a human either.
"Sorry." said Rikuo slowly. His left hand was still clenched tightly and he was still down.
"Alright, forget. We can't take him to the hospital because he's a demon like you, am I right?" ask Key.
"Yes, he's dying from being seriously injured. Plus he had been given the poison of paralysis by the fox demon. "youri's words stopped, he then looked towards Rikuo who was still down.
"Then, what should we do? Is there no way to cure it? He looked very miserable and weak" Mizu said looking at Gyukkimaru lying helplessly.
"Do you know who he is?" youri asked as she looked at Mizu's pitying face and was so worried about Gyukkimaru.
Mizu who does not know Gyukkimaru feels strange about Youri's question to her. He shook his head in astonishment, believing they had never met each other before.
For Mizu, a bad past can hamper things that exist in the future. Even good things can be passed unnoticed that will eventually harm yourself, therefore he considers the bad past can only be put behind and began to climb into the future. Although Gyukkimaru had previously injured him and nearly killed him, Mizu preferred to forgive him and take care of him. Because he was convinced, Gyukkimaru was not a bad person and in the future they could be friends.
Youri sees Mizu's attention being so great even to someone who once nearly killed her, feeling even more admiration for Mizu. Especially his attention is not reduced even though he knows that the person is a demon who could at any time again threaten his life.

Mizu and Key are preparing for the exams ahead of the summer break, learning more and wasting less time. They really try their best to face the test, especially this holiday is different from before. They will go to the demon world to help collect Tsukiko's divided soul so that she can reincarnate.
Rikuo and Youri bring the dying Gyukkimaru back to the demon world so that his condition does not get worse as the life energy in the demon world is stronger than in the outside world. For a time, Gyukkimaru will stay with Youri because they are both kara.
While Rikuo returns to the fox demon clan and heals himself there, he does not tell him what really happened to him. He did not even tell the elders and his family that he went to the outside world because of his suspicion of the Tozai case, too many strange things and irregularities that happened to his people. Moreover, all of these things are related to Tamamo, a demon that has been considered lost, even including the incident where Tamamo was the mastermind of several terrible incidents.
Before everything became clear, they agreed to keep it a secret from anyone. They focus on recovering while waiting for Mizu and Key to arrive. One by one, past events will soon be solved. Until that time comes, let it all pass as usual.
