Meanwhile Inosuke was scattering leaves in Reiko's hair.
Reiko looked up at him and smiled. "Having fun?"
Reiko was glad she could see and feel him clearly now, she really liked him.
"Yup!" Inosuke beamed.
"Oh! I-I'm reiko by the way." Reiko said politely, bowing just like her brother taught her.
Inosuke swung out of the tree and landed in front of her, lifting her out of the bow. "Ladies don't need to bow before Lord Inosuke Hashibara."
Reiko blushed. She was a Lady?! "It's nice to meet you Lord Inosuke. Thank you for helping me."
Inosuke picked at his ear. "It was nothin, you helped my family after all."
"They needed protecting. They…seemed scared."
Inosuke rolled his eyes. "Of course they were demons are super scary!"
"I was worried for them! I couldn't let them get eaten!"
Inosuke beamed at her. She was so brave! "Well that's why I saved you. Cuz you saved them," He said matter of factly. "to repay you."
"You don't have to repay me." Reiko gasped.
Inosuke shook his head. "That's how things work."
"So are you staying?" Reiko tilted her head.
Inosuke smiled and gestured back. "Nah, I'm goin into the forest, I'll be seein ya."
He leapt back into the tree.
"Can I…come visit you then?!" Reiko called.
Inosuke smirked. "You'd better!"
