This is incredible.

Are you looking for something?

Huh?

Welcome!

See? This will definitely look amazing on you.

Now, there's also...

Was that just my imagination?

Sorry, Nonaka!

Didn't mean to keep you waiting.

Huh?

Mio?

Beyond the hope placed in the light

The road to tomorrow never ends

The fragment of a vow reflected in your eyes

Will be the testament that rends the vortex of darkness

Once you soar above the gods and scream

Track down what you seek

The right hand in which you hold what you seek to protect

Will reach out as far away as you want

The desire not to lose what is important to you

Will let you move on from this dying world in every way

And run to the future

Just so you know,

"Bearing Growing Emotions" Just so you know,

"Bearing Growing Emotions"

"Bearing Growing Emotions" I just happened to see you two while I was out shopping.

I just happened to see you two while I was out shopping.

I mean it! I didn't follow after you or anything like that at all!

Mio-sama, if you're too excited,

it'll sound like you're tripping on your words.

I'm not excited!

But thank you.

We would've been forced to buy it if you hadn't come.

Right?

Yuki?

Naruse-san.

Wh-What?

If you don't mind,

could you help me choose an outfit?

Huh?

What does she mean, trying to prepare for her next date?!

Now, now.

Next customer, this way, please.

No more being friendly, Onee.

Kurumi?

She's not here either.

Shall we have the store make an announcement?

I can't imagine Nonaka leaving on her own.

Not when Basara's here.

I still can't get through.

If Yuki and I had the same Master-Servant Pact I have with Mio, this would be easy...

Idiot! What am I thinking?!

If anything happens to her, I...

The space...

Dodge! Maria!

Oh? You react faster than I expected.

A demon?

Has the current Demon Lord changed his policies?!

A fool who inherited that power but couldn't even survive that attack

wouldn't be very useful anyways.

That was your doing?

Huh? What are you talking about?

Was Yuki's disappearance your doing?

Ahh, you mean that woman from the hero clan?

Hmph. You've got a short fuse.

What's the matter, huh?

Is that all you've got?

I'll break every bone in your body!

Basara!

Was that supposed to be an attack?

It doesn't even make me sweat!

Hey, that hurt!

Are you all right?

Basara-san!

All your moving around is such a pain.

I'll finish you all off at once!

You!

Oh, you can do it if you try, huh?

Huh?

What's this?

--Huh? --That's...

--Takashi... --Huh?

Why are you here?

That's Byakko.

Shiba-san, why are you here?

Isn't it obvious?

Orders from the village.

Don't try to play me.

The village would never send you out.

Who's playing whom?

Are you trying to say it's normal to be with the girl

who inherited the last Demon Lord's power?

Are you saying they decided Yuki wasn't enough to keep an eye on Mio?

Where's Yuki?! Did you all do something to Yuki?!

Mio-sama!

Kurumi! You, too?!

Don't utter my name so freely, you traitor!

You're protecting the Demon Lord's daughter?

How dare you do something so ridiculous?

You have no idea what my sister has gone through these past five years!

Yuki.

The village has upgraded Naruse Mio to a mid-S class target for elimination.

Elimination?!

Yuki... You...

You're not our comrade anymore.

If you interfere,

then we'll brand you an enemy.

Yeah. I was already prepared for that!

You truly are Jin-san's son.

You broke the barrier that easily?!

I believe I told you not to get emotional.

Could you try not to make me work too much while I'm here to keep an eye on you?

I know!

If you accidentally destroy the city, the elders will be furious again.

Right, Basara?

We'll prepare a barrier space that's capable of withstanding our battle,

since we'd prefer to settle matters there, so how about it?

Saying "no" would be pointless, wouldn't it?

It's three against three.

We'll send the location later.

Our fight...

...will take place one week from now.

I thought they'd come eventually,

but that was fast for the elders.

I didn't think they'd let that Kyouichi out of prison, either.

Shiba-san's an observer

and won't be involved in the fighting this time.

If they let him out, they must have some kind of collar on him,

but don't let your guard down.

I know.

Not against Yuki, either.

She isn't the type who likes fighting!

There's no way she wants to fight against Mio by choice.

But she's still a girl from the village.

She's charged with protecting the peace of this world.

And you have something you have to protect yourself, don't you?

Are you sure?

If I go against the village, it'll mean making enemies out of all the heroes in this world.

I don't care.

They're the kind of people who exiled you from the village,

and then charged me to keep an eye on you.

Like I have any obligations left to them.

It doesn't matter if they're planning on unleashing Byakko or not.

I've got your back.

Go crush them.

Yeah. All right, Dad.

Yuki...

Takashi focuses on speed the way I do,

but right now Takashi seems to have more power.

However, that still doesn't come close to reaching Maria's strength.

Mio, for now you should focus on keeping your distance

and attacking from outside their range.

All right.

Okay, let's take a break.

Our biggest problem...

...is that spear.

The sacred spear Byakko...

As the name suggests,

it's a divine weapon housing the might of the guardian beast Byakko.

I've heard it can create powerful gusts that mow down everything.

Can we actually beat such a thing ourselves?

"Can we" is not in question. We will.

Our direction will determine our outcome against that one.

"Direction"?

Byakko represents west.

In other words, he always defends with the west behind him.

Because of that,

it's impossible to wield his power toward the west.

So we need to fight with the west at our backs, then?

That girl--Kurumi was her name?

She used magic, though.

Kurumi is a spirit conjurer who opens channels between herself and spirits

in order to avoid expending her own magic power.

That sounds dauntingly troublesome for us.

However, this time she's going to be restricted by Byakko's wind attribute,

so she should only be able to channel wind spirits.

It doesn't change the fact that she's a powerful enemy, though.

If we control our direction and distance,

we'll still have a chance against Takashi's spear, too.

All right. Understood.

They've settled on the location of our duel.

I see.

Happily hanging out and shopping with a target for observation...

Have you grown fond of her?

That's not the case.

The village's decision is absolute.

I know.

Why?!

Onee, you worked really, really, really hard

to become strong enough to serve on observation missions, didn't you?!

And yet you're seeking someone who's forgotten what they've done

and is living a carefree life in the city?!

Why?!

I'm sure Basara and the others

are trying desperately to come up with counter strategies right now.

Sorry. Are you all right, Takashi?

Man, you sure are strong, Basara.

Basara's power eliminated even the remains of the dead.

I can't believe we can't even send off the children who died.

Basara!

Never forget, Tojo Basara.

Even if you leave the village, your past will never disappear.

Training day after day sure takes its toll.

I'm sure you're tired, Basara-san.

I've brought you some hot milk.

Thank you.

What's with that outfit?!

This?

I think this is pretty natural for someone who just finished her bath.

That's not what I mean!

Listen, Basara-san, I'd like to discuss something with you.

"Discuss"?

Yes. Something very important.

Would you please subdue Mio-sama some more?

Huh? Server error 500. Retrying 1/3...

These past few days you've been continuing your training,

but unfortunately you're still a step-- no, two steps--behind me and Mio-sama.

That's...

As you're aware,

as the trust between those bound by a Master-Servant Pact grows,

both individuals grow stronger. So...

Let me take this chance to say it.

I do those kinds of things only to help Mio.

But that's all the more reason I don't want to build our trust that way.

I want to take the time to develop our trust.

Even if it happened by accident, I'm her master now,

and before that, I'm her brother.

I understand.

In that case, there are other methods,

so let's use those.

There are?

Huh?

Hey, wait!

Please don't move.

Wh-What are you trying to do?!

Succubi are able to absorb lust and arousal

and turn it into our own strength.

So if you can't do that with Mio-sama,

then you can help make me stronger instead.

Don't act like that's a reasonable conclusion.

I'm sorry.

But it's your fault, Basara-san.

When you say something like that with that look...

Hey!

Hey!

Don't worry. Leave it to me.

Hmm?

Ah, no, this isn't...

My, Mio-sama...

What are you doing, standing over there like that?

M-Maria?!

It's all right. Please watch.

Hey, wait!

Hmm?

Mio?

Mio-sama, I'm sorry,

but Basara-san and I and have important battle preparations to take care of,

and if you stand there, then bluntly put, you're in the way.

Maria!

Please, wait!

I'll do it.

No--I insist that I do it.

Huh?

I'm the one who needs to grow stronger the most. Not Maria.

I heard what you said.

It made me really happy to hear you say you wanted to take the time

to build trust with me.

Thank you, Basara.

Mio...

A-Are you all right?

N-No way...

Why am... I...?

It's natural.

The frequent activation of the curse

has made your body more sensitive than ever before.

That's... That's...

Basara...

Are you really looking at my breasts?

Basara, you pervert.

Oh, uh... Sorry about that.

Oh, Basara-san.

Wh-What?

In order to further pleasure the new Mio-sama that you're creating,

I think it might be good to change things up a bit.

D-Don't say "creating"!

This is the perfect opportunity, so why not use this?

Maple syrup?

Let's... use this as a lubricant!

H-Hey!

Making the one you're trying to make obedient feel embarrassed

is the best feeling you could give them.

R-Really?

All right, Basara-san, go for it!

By the way, Mio-sama.

What?

You were listening to what I was doing earlier the whole time, weren't you?

Huh? W-Well...

Listening in on your master

is very unbecoming as a servant.

Basara...

I'm...

...embarrassed.

Onii-chan, please...

My chest is so hot, and I feel this longing...

Onii-chan... Onii-chan!

That light indicates that their relationship

through the Master-Servant Pact has progressed.

When that light settles down,

the two of you should be even stronger than you were before.

You did well.

Let's win.

What should we eat today?

Curry?

Naruse-san, we're going ahead.

Ah, wait!

Basacchi.

Shall we grab something, too?

Yeah.

Nonaka's been absent this whole time.

Seems so.

It's tonight, right?

You're good.

Valga was done in.

Of course I'd look into it.

So, where's it going down?

Who knows?

Hey, don't give me tha--

No, I'm waiting for them to tell us.

Well, I'll trust you on that.

I'll also give you a bit of warning.

The people who defeated my comrade are after Naruse Mio.

So, sorry, but I'll have to interfere, if it comes down to it.

Interfere?

If it looks like they're about to kill Naruse,

I'll exterminate them by force.

Even if it happens to be Nonaka.

You?!

Don't forget.

You and I are only joining forces for mutual benefit.

If you don't want us to act,

then make sure you win.

Let me tell you this, then.

If you lay a hand on Yuki or the others from the village,

then I will stop you.

Even if it means turning you against me.

Still no word...

I'll meet up with Mio and Maria for now...

Yuki!

Come.

Where have you been?

Please, Basara.

I want you to withdraw from tonight's battle.

I can't do that.

I told you before, didn't I? I'm...

I know.

But if you ally yourself with a target for elimination,

you'll be facing more than just exile!

Even so, I want to protect Mio.

I'm her brother.

Even if it means fighting me, Kurumi, and the others?

Yeah.

I see.

I'll tell you the location for today.

I'm sure I'll be the biggest hindrance once we start fighting,

but I won't lose.

All right.

That concludes my business.

Let go of me.

I have nothing more to say.

"Tojo"

"Tojo" A key?

"Tojo"

"Tojo" It's a spare key. To our home.

It's a spare key. To our home.

Why?!

You often visited our home a long time ago, right?

With your own spare.

But tonight, we're...

It's not over yet.

I don't want this to be the end. At all.

There's only ten minutes left until it's time.

But is it really here?

Hey, you're here.

Well, then. Shall we get this started now?

I will take my desire to see you again

And lock it up forever Server error 500. Retrying 1/3...

Deep within my heart

I practice the words I was only able to say

Within my dreams

You're somehow always smiling by my side

And it has become such a big part of my life

That I can see your shadow even with my eyes closed

So I'll tell it as many times as it takes

I want to see you again, my beloved

I want to live my life with you

Even if it turns the whole world against me

I will never let go of this hand again

I finally manage to say it while I'm awake

And you smile back at me like you always do
