*****

The sun had set and the night had arrived. Every guest that will attend tonight's meeting had arrived, they were ready in the meeting room, waiting for me and my old man.

Hagoromo Gitsune also arrived with Kuroka. She was wearing a black Kimono with white lining instead of the usual school uniform.

Right now I was sitting in the courtyard, looking at the Sakura tree above the pond with Hagoromo Gitsune sitting beside me.

"So, I heard from Kuroka that Nurarihyon wanted me to attend this meeting with you?"

Hagoromo Gitsune asked me without even glancing at me. Her gaze was focused on the Sakura Tree that had yet to bloom. The tree was filled with green leaves without a single pink color from the flower.

"Yeah, I don't know his intention, but he wanted to announce to his subordinate that I will be his Heir in the future."

"I see, so he will be stepping down from his position? But that doesn't concern me."

"That's true."

Hagoromo Gitsune was an outsider, she was the being from another world for my old man. Why did he specifically want her to attend the meeting, not Tsuchigumo that went back to Kyoto or Kurotabo who had a close tie with me in these past days?

"That old man has something in his mind for sure. He never did anything useless… or he did it several times. But in the end, he planned something in this meeting."

"Surely so. Does the time arrive yet for the meeting?"

Asked Hagoromo Gitsune as she looked to her right, the direction of the meeting room.

I smiled and looked in the same direction as Hagoromo Gitsune. I could feel a lot of youkai inside the room, while the youkai from our mansion was running around, preparing everything with all their energy.

"Not yet, my old man had yet to leave his room. He will fetch us when it's time for the meeting. I will enjoy the moment of silence because I will leave to take a trip after the meeting is over."

"A trip, you wanted to find that sword, didn't you?" Asked Hagoromo Gitsune as she turned to me and smiled.

I shook my head in response.

"Nay, I'm not trying to find those swords. I wanted to look at the situation of the world before it plunged into turmoils because of some terrorists."

"Terrorists? And you are afraid of them?" Asked Hagoromo Gitsune in a curious tone.

"Did you hear about the Dragon God in this world?"

I asked Hagoromo Gitsune as I crossed my arms inside my Kimono. Hagoromo Gitsune nodded his head a little.

"I have heard about them. It seems they had the power to destroy this world if they wanted to."

"Correct."

I turned my gaze to the Sakura tree and continued.

"The leader or rather the figurative leader of that terrorist organization is one of the dragon god, Ophis."

Hagoromo Gitsune was interested in my story, but at that time I felt my old man approaching us. It was unfortunate, but I stopped telling her about Khaos Brigade and stood up.

"It's time." I said to Hagoromo Gitsune and she stood up.

"I will tell you when I have more time to spare."

I began to walk toward the meeting room with Hagoromo Gitsune on my left. We met my old man who stood in front of the meeting room while smiling with his arm crossed.

"You have arrived. Riku, I must warn you that the youkai that attended this meeting are all the leaders of their own army. Each of them had their own Hyakki Yakkou, and I commanded all of them as the Commander. That position will be yours after I stepped down. Now, they brought their heir to meet you, so they know the person that they serve in the future."

I nodded my head in understanding. East Youkai Clan were formed from a lot of clans, and each had its own power and army. The young youkai from each clan will always be dispatched to our mansion to greet my old man, but they never met me personally except for some.

They just heard about me, about what their dad told them. Without my old man telling me anything, I understood what he meant.

"You want me to show off?"

Nurarihyon youkai was lurking in the shadow of the moon, that was our existence. Showing off will only be done in front of the ally after the battle was over. I followed those since I was a little, and only used my Fear to threaten my enemy when they underestimated me.

My old man turned his gaze to Hagoromo Gitsune and put on a serious face.

"Yes, I wanted the young lady beside you to show her power too. No, showing her tails are enough, can you do that for me?"

"I must ask, why?" Asked Hagoromo Gitsune in a displeased tone.

"Your existence was discovered by the other youkai when you trashed Satan's little sister. And now, doubt began to rise that you were a rogue, a dangerous youkai that wanted to inflict war against the devils."

Hagoromo Gitsune narrowed her eyes at my old man and began to let out a dangerous aura around her body.

"Are you trying to threaten me?"

My old man smirked at Hagoromo Gitsune and said.

"Nah, why? I don't need to threaten you, I just told you the opinion of other youkai."

Hagoromo Gitsune calmed down a little after she heard what my old man said and her aura disappeared.

'That was close, I bet the youkai inside the meeting room who mastered Senjutsu had felt that aura…'

At that moment, I looked at my old man who still had a smirk on his face.

"Sly old man."

He laughed a little and then put his hand on the door handle.

"Well, let's enter. You can just sit silently beside Riku and let me handle everything. Riku, I believe in your ability to make a speech."

He opened the door and the other youkai who sat on the left and right turned their gaze at us. My old man walked between the youkai who sat on the left and right to the front row with 3 Zabuton that was prepared for us.

I followed my old man from behind with a steady step. The youkai were looking at me in awe, they were comparing my appearance with my old man. Some of the youkai nodded their head with a smile while the others, mainly female youkai had their mouth opened while looking at us.

Hagoromo Gitsune also realized that she has been played by my old man. She gritted her teeth silently and followed us.

My old man took a seat in the Zabuton in the middle while I took a seat on the Zabuton on his right and Hagoromo Gitsune took a Zabuton on his left.

My old man put his left hand on his thighs and rested his head on it.

"Let's begin the meeting."
