Meeting of Clan 5

"hoko huh, what are you planning? that place is dangerous for us. I heard that stray youkai was missing when they attempt to enter the place."

hoko, the dog youkai is smiling evilly because of his head just like a dog. but that smile is not evil one but a smile to know something.

"nurahiyon-sama, you are right. when some stray youkai has entered that area. they are missing. but this is a chance to investigate the cause of why our kin is missing. so, with ryouma-sama that isn't possessed tokii. they can infiltrate the place at ease."

when otome heard that. the aura in this room became cold enough that there was some area covered with thin ice. otome directed his void emotion eyes to hoko and speak.

"hoko-sama, are you implying that my sweetheart must become a scapegoat for that information?"

hoko without flinching spoke his word to otome.

"no madam, I never thought of ryouma-bochama as a scapegoat. madam and everyone knows about the movement of Kyoto youkai right?"

everyone in this hall including otome nodded at hoko's word. the situation around Kyoto became uncertain because Kyoto isn't their clan's influence.

after all, they only remembered about the battle that they partook to aid nurahiyon's reckless to save his would-be wife 400 years ago.

after that battle, nura clan that being led by nurahiyon was moving to the place that is going to become Tokyo to relocate their headquarters.

so people in here was the comrade that was nurahiyon's hyaki hyako, a parade of 100 youkai. they follow nurahiyon because of his charisma and his belief in strong protect weak that made all of youkai in here fascinating of him and made him their leader.

that belief was still inherited from him to his grandson, ryouma. so with that, hoko knew the action ryouma took when he in the battlefield when he should be injured made him realize that, this clan is going to be bigger than ever.

so he explained his reasoning to all of the participants.

"I have some information that made me worried about Kyoto. yasaka, that nine-tailed fox that resides in west Kyoto contacted by some unknown tengu-like creature. their wing is black but their feather isn't crow but it has the touch of fur. I don't know what the deal is with her and that group. but I feel a bad feeling if leave it."

everyone in the hall became panicked because of this information. they became noisy and then suddenly there is the sound of a knock on floor.

it was rihan that made the sound with his sword. then all of the participants became silent and rihan ask a question to hoko.

"Are you sure about the authenticity of the information, hoko-san?"

"yes, after all, I sent my boys to west youkai territory for business but in turn, my boys witness something different at that place. they witness that unknown youkai in yasaka's shrine. when I got that information, I order them to check where they are come from, and to my suprise, they are from kuoh."

"hoko, are you sure about that?"

"yes nurahiyon-sama, so I suggest letting ryouma-bochama go to kuoh academy for his society education."

"why next year?"

"well this is spring already nurahiyon-sama and the registration of high school administration is winter from November through December. so we should let ryouma-bochama go to kuoh next year."

"why not me, hoko-sama?"

"Because you are important to us right now, ryouma-bochama is important as well but, with his common sense and his childish behavior. we must let him go to school start with high school."

"he is not childish, right?"

"madam, from my eyes he is childish. only when he is in battle, his attitude we can praise. but I worry about this development, so forgive me madam, but next year we must send ryouma-bochama to kuoh academy."

otome became tongue-tied because it was true for their clan that she was too important to be moved from headquaters.

because otome was silent, rihan asked the next question.

"then what happened to remnant of hagoromo kitsune's hyaki hyako?"

"some of them still in kyoto but there are some movements that indicated that they are moving to Osaka."

"huh, that group still pain in the ass with that witch is gone for good."

"um, father?"

"a sorry about that otome-san, but when i thought about that fucking fox I always thought of that battle, it is not implying with you."

otome nodded at nurahiyon's word because she knew that was true. so she asked the vital question to hoko.

"then hoko-sama, do you have a place that can house my sweetheart to his heart content? are you saying that he should be in the sack for his entire school year?"

"no, in fact, I found some acquaintance's place that can let him live so that he can go to school with ease. it was kiriya's household located in the forest near the academy. for some reason, they are still undetected for the entire time. don't ask me about their origin, because I don't know about that place. I know the maid of that household so with that maid as intermediaries to let ryouma-bochama stay at their house."

"bu-"

"mama, let me go to kuoh academy!!!"

suddenly some voice was being heard from outside and the door was sliding open by the one in question.

ryouma was standing there with exciting face plaster on his face and beside him, it was wakana that with apologetic face and bow to all the attendant.

'i'm sorry about ryouma-san behavior."

"come on, wakana okaa-san. it's no big deal. after all, I always barge in and they never angry at me."

nurahiyon pressed his finger to his throbbing head to ease his headache. also, all the participants had a wry smile because it was true that they never angry but this is an important meeting and the heir of the nura clan just barge in without a moment's notice and with a proud face, he said something like that.

then mokugyou with a stern voice said something to ryouma.

"ryouma-bochama, it was childish conduct that didn't fit with the heir of our clan. you shouldn't proudly say that. this is an important meeting so you should go back to your room to sleep because of your injuries."

"ehh, but mokugyou-ossan you were talking about me and school right!!!??? I always want to go to school, after all that place is where harem is being formed right!!???"

then everyone became dumbfounded with ryouma's statement, they started cold sweat because it was much worse than they thought.

some of them were coughed because of this statement but there was someone with an extreme reaction.

it was otome, her face became just like noh mask that didn't have expression and her surrounding became cold enough that almost that behind her was a block of ice. then he asked a question to ryouma.

"sweetheart, where are you learn that word?"

ryouma looked at otome became afraid. with doubt, he asked her about her mood.

"mama, are you angry?"

"no sweetheart, so be a good boy and answer me. where did you learn that word?"

"It was at the book that called harem's life that hidden at oyaji cupboard at the training ground. i saw t-"

"ok stop sweet heart."

"i think i need to go to toilet f-"

"you stop deviant, let's talk about this. wakana-san, let's punish this deviant in my room. everyone let's take a break, after all, we are tired after all."

"yes otome-san."

after hearing that rihan wanted to escape so he made an excuse to escape from this situation but his shoulder is being grabbed by otome. with the defeated look he let wakana and otome to dragged him to her room.

everyone had cold look at rihan because he deserved this. but ryouma was confused at his mother's action.

"ehh, why oyaji was being dragged by wakana okaa-san and mama?"

seeing his confused look, gyuki said something to ryouma.

"ryouma-bochama, let's talk about this for a while in the zen garden."

"what is it, gyuki-ossan?"

"just come ok, mokugyou, hitotsume, and hihi. let's go"

they nodded because they must let ryouma what he was saying to made ryouma realize what he was saying so they dragged ryouma to zen garden to spoke to him.

then nurahiyon announced about something.

"well let's take a break for 1 hour ok everybody?"

they nod and became tired because of ryouma antics.

so the meeting was a break for 1 hour.
