The Two Guests

After Envy and Koyuki return from the journey to Asmodeus' abyssal realm, Daniel was finally released from the warding magic formation, regaining his freedom. Life returned to normal, peace resumed, and no one came to disturb him.

Koyuki also returned to her training, as it was crucial for her to complete it. She needed to gain control over at least six out of the eight fragments of Yamata no Orochi's soul. Eventually, she would need to master all eight fragments to ensure Japan's safety and prevent Orochi from breaking the seal and wreaking havoc on the country.

The sound of the doorbell rang, and Envy, who was at home, went to answer it. She opened the door to find two guests she had expected but never wanted to see.

"Oh… 'Princess,' how gracious of you to bless our humble abode with your presence," Envy said, a hint of sarcasm lacing her tone.
