Chapter 1: Threat
"It has been a while that Oruha has left us" says Kazu, while walking towards the kitchen's sink carrying dirty plates. "Oh Kazu-chan, you don't have to do all these works, leave to us!" says Hitori while smiling at Kazu. Kaori who was moping the kitchen floor then says "Afterall, we are maids of this castle right? So it's our job to do this stuff". "Oh, I'm suppose you're right Kaori-san, ahaha" says Kazu laughing a little. However, Inari who is cleaning the stove, halted her activity and secretly watching Kazu from far as her other 2 sisters is teasing him.
"Oh Kazu-chan, where's Youmi-sama, she did not join the lunch nor breakfast earlier" asks Hitori to Kazu. Kazu who was laughing immediately turns unhappy after hearing such question. "Sigh, she still worries that Oruha left her, as they we're good friends before, and suddenly Oruha just, drifted away for some reason" says Kazu. Hitori and Kaori turns silence while worrying about Youmi. "Well they were rivals before. And nothing else I would fear other than history repeats itself, since both are goddeses, Demona and Angellus" says Inari. "Heeeey baka Inari, don't say that. Carefull with potty mouth of yours!" shouts Kaori to Inari. And somehow both Kaori and Inari started to quarrel, leaving Kazu and Hitori worried and wondering.
Meanwhile at Youmi's own room, Youmi was sitting on the floor while recalling the moments she and Oruha had together. Hanging out, battles, good times and bad times, they gone through together. "Oruha.." says Youmi while her eyes started to get watery. Suddenly, a mild breeze blows right through the castle, and the wind enters Youmi's room through her window, ringing the wind chime. As the breeze blows to Youmi, an unexpected voice riding along the wind, calling Youmi's name. Youmi startled by the voice present in the wind, but however, she is unaware with a dark figurine standing on the next block rooftop. The figurine took something from it's sleeve and threw it toward's Youmi's room.
As Kaori and Inari are still quarelling, Kazu and Hitori expression suddenly turns serious, as they sensed something and glares towards window that shows 2nd block of the castle, and not more than a secons, Kaori and Inari turns , as the wind breeze blows through them. "Wait... this presence..." says Kazu. Hitori then replied, "Yeah, this is no doubt. It's t.." CRASH! A glass broken sound cuts Hitori's line. "Youmi-sama!" says everyone in the kitchen. Kazu and everyone rushed towards 3rd floor where Youmi's room located. "Youmi-sama!" Kazu and the sisters barged into the room, and they saw Youmi is untying a note on a blade that deep stuck on the wall.
As Youmi reads the mysterious note, the note goes as follows: "Dear Youmi. I've realised that our previous encounter with Maria, somehow did not show my full power as you did not acknowledge me. Therefore, as I am practising, we shall continue our previous duel, to prove which of us is the strongest, and I shall guarantee, I will fail you before the duel begins - Oruha".
The note flew away from Youmi hands, unable to accept that such threat was sent to her. Hitori quickly picks up the note, and everyone read the note together in silence. "Fine, if this how she requests,then I'll fulfill it!" shouts Youmi and then teleported away. "Youmi-sama!" shouts everyone while shocked what was just happened.
"This is why I hate your potty mouth so much, Inari-chan" says Hitori, while staring deep into the note.
