*****

After waiting for a few seconds, I saw Sona rushing towards my direction with Tsubaki. As she saw what happened in the school ground in front of me, she shouted.

"What happened here?!"

She approached me and stopped in front of me as she glared at me with a serious face.

"Why don't we ask the one who started all of this?" I said as I walked towards Rias that was blown away by Hagoromo Gitsune's attack.

As I had expected, they were injured but they were still conscious. Sona followed me from behind while looking around at the disastrous scene that happened because of Hagoromo Gitsune's attack.

"How can it escalate to this point? I've asked one of my peerage members to call Asia from the underworld to prepare for an emergency, she will arrive in a minute or so."

"That's good then, but I still need to ask your friend why did she attack me and my friend without asking us anything. You do understand how bad the situation is if her attack towards me was known to the Sirzechs, right?"

I approached Rias that was lying unconscious on the ground and checked her condition. A few broken ribs and bruises all over her body. With her healing factor, then she would be fine after a few days or so. Akeno and Issei were also just had some broken bones here and there, nothing serious.

Kiba had the most serious injuries though, his stomach was pierced by Hagoromo Gitsune's tail after all. I looked at Sona and said.

"Maybe your Queen could administer first aid to Kiba? His injuries were the most serious amongst them."

Sona nodded her head and instructed Tsubaki to care for Kiba. She had a smile on her face as she run towards Kiba without any second thought. Now, let's take care of them and tell them to leave the town. Her misunderstanding almost caused a war, thankfully Hagoromo Gitsune was here.

"What will you do now, Nura?" Sona asked me with a worried tone. She must've had understood the situation and she was worried about the future course of youkai.

"The one that was attacked first was my friend, Hagoromo Gitsune. Her position in youkai is a bit tricky, you know? She is my friend, my guest, and a leader of her own army. A strong army that rivaled mine."

I didn't lie. Hagoromo Gitsune's Hyakki Yakkou was strong, "So, after this girl regained her consciousness, contact me. For now, I will go back to my house."

Sona had a relieved face, but I quickly added, "Don't misunderstand. I won't let this matter end like this. No matter what her reason was, she attacked me and my friend with her power of destruction. If I was weaker than her, I would die from it. Thankfully I am strong. So, just contact me when she regained her consciousness."

After I said that, I walked away from Sona and the unconscious Rias while waving my hand without looking at Sona. After I was at a distance away from her, I shouted.

"You better scold her or punch her one time, you know? It was her fault for attacking me, not yours!"

I left the school ground with a smile on my face. I bet Rias would be scolded by Sona and she would be called back to her house. Also, because Rias had made a lot of mess by attacking me and Hagoromo Gitsune without asking anything, Sirzechs will make a move.

With his personality and position as Satan, he will do his best to avoid a war with Youkai. If by chance a war broke out between Youkai and Devils, the Shinto faction will certainly make a move to help Youkai and that will put the Devils at a disadvantage.

But, because the ones who were attacked were me and Hagoromo Gitsune, I was not that angry. Maybe… just maybe I will ask for something that will help my subordinate and myself at the same time. In other words, I will wring his pocket dry.

"Took you long enough." I heard Hagoromo Gitsune's voice from my right. I turned to the voice and saw her leaning against the wall with her arms crossed.

"Have you been waiting for me? How thoughtful of you." I said as I walked the street towards my apartment.

Hagoromo Gitsune walked by my side with a smile on her face, "My, I was waiting for you and that was what you said?"

"Hahaha, you left the aftermath to me, so it should be you thanking me, no?"

"What are you saying, I was the one who defeat them-" When Hagoromo Gitsune was about to brag, I cut her off.

"When I was about to defeat them myself. Well, it turns out alright so I think I owe you praise."

"I don't need it, but well. They were weak." Hagoromo Gitsune said as she raised her right hand. "Way too weak."

I shrugged my shoulder as I let out a little sigh, "What can I say, she was not a fighter. No, more accurately, she was hiding behind her brother's position."

"Now that you mention it, you said that her brother is bothersome, why?" Hagoromo Gitsune looked at me with a serious face as she said that.

"The Nurarihyon and his descendants that I knew would never said that. They were stupid, reckless, but they are brave. Even the old bastard came to my castle by himself just to meet me."

My smile fell from my face as Hagoromo Gitsune said that. That was right. Why did I ever think of someone to be bothersome? Somehow, something changed since I had arrived in this town. Was it because I had understood about the war? Was it since my old man told me about going to this town?

But, before long I smiled again as I realized it. That's right, I am strong. Why did I act like a coward and always tread the path carefully? That was not Nurarihyon Youkai style.

I closed my right eye and looked at Hagoromo Gitsune.

"Thanks, you opened my eyes. That was right, why did I ever think of backing down before a fight?"

"Then you know the rest of it." Said Hagoromo Gitsune as she walked faster.

I laughed at her with how she tried acting as if she didn't care about me. But I knew it, she wouldn't say that if she was really indifferent about me. It seems I owe her one.

Hesitation really didn't suit Nurarihyon Youkai, huh. I guess that was true. Let's just do as I please.
