I handed her the Mochi that Rinnosuke gave me that's inside of a  small paper bag

Kasen: what is it?

Ibaraki: an important drug that could calm me down

She takes a look at the inside

Kasen: it's just mochi

Ibaraki: exactly sweets are very important to me

Kasen: I agree with you there

Ibaraki: it seemed I met a fellow that likes sweet foods

Kasen: same...

She reached out her hand and I clasp it with mine

Kasen: I will let you try my collection

Ibaraki: Ohh! That's a promise don't forget about it okay?!

Kasen: of course!

Momiji: Kasen! I Brough Aya

Ohh... it seemed the tengu that is with Momiji is Aya Shameimaru

Aya has red eyes and semi-long black hair. She wears a white blouse, a black short skirt, and a tokin.

Very simple If I quite say...

Aya: ohh! The Oni that fights with the guard of the scarlet devil mansion!

Aya: I heard you want to talk to me

----------

I have met a particular Oni today

She referred to herself as Ibaraki Douji which is the sole survivor of the Oni massacre on Mount Oe

I can't believe it at first because she doesn't look like the exact image of a previous era Oni in my mind

Except for her red hands and Feet and several red tattoos on her body

I immediately felt a connection once I started to lay my eyes on her

It felt quite strange and unexplainable

It seemed she wanted to take revenge on Aya so she headed toward the mountain

So I tag along so I could investigate this connection

I've talked to her and I realized we have so many things in common

She is also smarter than typical Onis, I guess she is the real deal in that she is the sole survivor of the massacre

It seemed she isn't fond of violence but her curse made her that

She also remarks it 'it's probably my curse for abandoning everyone'

Making her lose control of her body... thats quite serious

I remember that she also has lost her right hand but she has them right now

The story goes that she disguised herself as a human and got her arm back and I want to ask her why she didn't disguise herself if she doesn't want attraction

And sure enough, she said 'I'm a proud Oni why should I change my race?'

I think she will hate me if she knows who I am

We met Momiji in her patrol and now we are waiting for her to bring Aya

It seemed she likes sweets just like me It felt like I have a twin sister

Aya has arrived and Ibaraki is the one the first one to negotiate

Ibaraki: can you not spread lies?

Aya: I only say the truth

Ibaraki: no, you twisted my words and I want you to clarify that you misheard what I said

Aya: Nope

Ibaraki clenched her fist as she take a deep breath, she is trying so hard to not lose control of herself

But she said that I don't need to interfere

Ibaraki: if I beat you will you heed my request?

Aya: Hmm... Okay! I'm quite lucky because my scoop is the one that initiates approaches me

Before I could scold Aya Ibaraki's lower hair become flames

And intense heat can be felt in her

This is bad it seemed her curse have been triggered

Ibaraki: I'm still sane I just need to beat her up

Ibaraki: when I grew fiery wings that is the cue that I am not sane anymore

Kasen: just finished it quick before you lost your sanity

Ibaraki: I'll try

Ibaraki looks at Aya who has a serious face

Aya: it seemed I am in deep trouble...

Ibaraki: don't worry I will only break a wing or two

I need to prepare for the worst
