บท 1318: The Soul Mirror

"It has been over a thousand years since the last time I saw my cute Kaguya-chan! How is she doing so far?" Ame no Seimei continued yapping nonstop. "Ah, I'm sorry about this though. It was my fault that you ended here. You see, the magical contract I created with her was very strong so even after I died its trace remained as leftover magic… She must have not realized this when she made the Soul Orbs for you!"

"I-I see… So that happened," I nodded. "Well, she's fine I think. She's doing alright. She seems healthy and well… she's quite cunning as well. And knows what to do… she's quite smart."

"Interesting, so she had become more cunning then?" nodded Abe no Seimei. "I remember her when she was just a little sapling, she was the cutest little thing! I grew her up myself, did you know? She always called me when I came back home from the garden."
