Yes, I understand.
Sorry to have troubled you with so many things. I'm really grateful.
Eh? That child?
Doing very well!
Yeah, you take care too Oba-sama!
You're up early. Hakufu, what happened?
Because when I thought about Mou-chan, I was really worried.
I couldn't sleep well at all...
As expected of my daughter!
Finally living up to the expectations of a leader.
I'll tell you a piece of good news.
What good news do you mean?
Ryomou-san headed to the mountains to clear her thoughts.
But I heard she's coming back soon.
How did you know what Mou-chan's doing, Mama?
There's someone I know that resides in that mountain.
Don't worry about it, hurry and get to school already.
Understood!
Thank you, Mama!
Since it's been settled, I'm going to take a bath!
Letting people worry as usual.
Oh no!
Episode 10 - Confusing the enemy from within.
I'm sorry, onee-sama.
It's not Chuubou's fault.
You were only helping oba-san out.
Plus, it's the idiot's fault for not making sure there was water before jumping in.
Wait... Koukin...
You keep lecturing me.
Ever since Chuubou came, you've been very cold towards me.
Oh!
Could it be!?
What are you saying?
Onee-sama, could that person over there be...
Eh~ Fu-chin!
Why is she here?
But she is not with Ryomou-san, which means...
Koukin-oniisama.
What's wrong Chuubou?
I feel that Ryofu-sama is very scary...
Fu-chin!
Hey wait up!
Hakufu...
Who are you looking for?
Found you!
Sorry! Sorry! I was too happy...
Happy...?
Yeah!
I've been worrying about Mou-chan after she left. But now that I've found you,
I feel more at ease now.
At ease? Because of me?
It sure is lonely when there's no one to discuss stuff with.
Fu-chin, do you know where Mou-chin is?
I'm not very sure either.
You guys would be more informed about Ryomou wouldn't you?
I think so...
Ah yes! There's someone who knows all about Mou-chan.
Let's go look for that person!
O-Okay...
W-Why...
To not be around at such an important time!
Don't feel so down, Ryomou will soon...
Maybe she's at that place!
Is Mou-chan around?
Sorry!
Mou-chan said she likes to play fighting games.
Damnit... Damnit... How about this!
Winner!
This isn't the right time for me to play...
Nowhere to be found...
What should we do, Fu-chin?
Why are you so worried about Ryomou?
What is she to you?
Eh? What is Mou-chan to me?
Now that you say it, what could it be...
The first time we met, she suddenly attacked me.
No matter what I said she would immediately get angry.
Although she was much more serious than me.
But still, she never lasted long in any job.
However she occasionally shows the lonesome side of hers.
I would get worried everytime she does that.
But no matter how troubled she was, she would seldom share it with me.
I'm not sure whether I could cheer her up, even just a little.
Do you like Ryomou?
Yes! She is an important friend!
Important friend...?
That's right!
Mou-chan, Fu-chin, Koukin, Chuubou.
Ryuu-chan, Kan-chan, Ton-chan. They are ALL my important friends!
Ryomou is over there.
You know where she is, Fu-chin?
Yeah, I'll take you there.
Oh yeah, Mama said she went to train in the mountains.
I see, so shes still in the mountains!
Right, Fu-chin?
Eh? This is...
That's right, Ryomou is in here.
Wait for me!
Fu-chin.
Wa... It's in ruins.
Fu-chin?
Mou-chan!
This... What's going on?
Why is Mou-chan in such a state?
What a fool. Both Ryomou and you.
Only the ones involved are still in a daze.
What friends? It's all just superficial.
I want to destroy all of this pointless stuff.
What are you saying? What's wrong with you, Fu-chin?
We went to the ghost town together.
In there Ryofu-san...
Someone entered my body.
And Ryofu was just being controlled by someone.
Controlled?
By who Riku-san.
Saji Genpou.
You're not Fu-chin? Who the hell are you?
Who knows...
Correct, I am not Ryofu Housen.
Umm?
You were from back then...
Why are you in such a place?
I'm happy.
I've never been treated so gently before.
And I felt something from you. A gentleness that I've never felt before.
W-What are you talking about?
I will not share it with Ryomou.
Something that belongs only to me.
I definitely will not hand it to anyone else.
This doesn't make sense. There is no reason in doing this.
What... Is this?
The only one you need is me.
Only me.
Forgive me, Ryofu.
Because that person discovered my affections for you,
and it has led to this.
I could not believe my eyes when I saw you re-appear in this world.
The genjutsu master, Saji Genpou's hatred.
Will be a curse that befalls every warrior eventually.
Now, Shison Zei's prediction has already come true.
The only thing I can do now is to wait.
For the moment that she uses up all her energy.
It's no good, I still can't get through.
Where has Hakufu-oneesan gone to?
I can't shake this uneasy feeling off.
We can only pray that everything is okay.
Hakufu!
Hakufu-oneesama!
Why didn't you contact us at all?
We were very worried.
Oh is that so?
Sorry about that then.
But I think I've reached a new low.
When weaklings like you need to worry about me, who is known as the Little Tyrant.
What are you saying, Hakufu?
Onii-sama, the Hakufu-oneesama right now is...
Damn.
It's such a bother that the leader has to take care of their weak followers.
I can't stand it.
I'm done with it already.
I will let that muscular idiot Gaku-chan to take care of all these for me.
What happened to you?
Sun Tzu says: Confusing the enemy from within.
The best strategy is to
confuse the enemy so that their plan will not succeed.
Looks like our enemy plans to use Hakufu-oneechan to confuse us.
What did you say?
Then Hakufu...
You can feel it eh?
It is the same thing that happened with Ryuubi-sama. She's being controlled.
By Saji Genpou.
Try stopping me, Koukin.
Hakufu, wake up already!
Koukin... It hurts...
Do you hate me?
Koukin.
Be careful, onii-sama!
Do you plan on kissing me to take control?
What a pity! Its not everyday I feel like giving a hot kiss.
Unforgiveable. I will not forgive you!
Where is the joy in doing all this?
Yeah. It is fun. Very fun.
When I see the bunch of you that smile everyday without a care in the world suffering,
It feels really great.
What happened to the real Hakufu?
Under my control, everyone is sleeping in a dark world.
Even if you screamed your lungs out, Sonsaku Hakufu's mental conscience will not return.
Koukin-oniisama.
Saji Genpou's motive is to wreck the friendship between everyone.
Chuubou! You can't handle her, run away!
No, onii-sama.
I will not run away.
Even though I don't have the powers of a warrior.
As the younger sister, as Sonken Chuubou.
I will protect my brother with all I can.
You sound very reliable.
In that case...
How about it?
How can you protect him when you can't even get close to me.
You really are an idiot that doesn't know her limits.
The real idiot is the one who calls another an idiot.
Saji Genpou, you are a pitiful person.
You can only interact with people by harming them.
You're scared of people, and therefore everyone fears you also.
Shut up!
That's right.
Everyone is always wary of me. Even before knowing me they are wary of me.
That is why I want to make them suffer.
You are scared of me too aren't you?
In that case, you should also run away.
Stop it, Chuubou.
I will not run away.
For the sake of my brother... And for the sake of Hakufu onee-sama.
W-What's going on...
I can't run away.
Stay away!
Hakufu-oneesama... Can you see me?
Can you hear my voice?
Please turn back into the kind and gentle sister that you were!
Hakufu!
Hakufu-oneesama, hang on!
Chuubou.
Hakufu.
You're really Hakufu right?
You're back, Hakufu-oneesama!
I heard it, Chuubou's voice.
But that kid entered my body, and I was unable to move.
That was a very scary and very lonely feeling.
Sorry... Both of you.
Both of you are so worn down because of me.
Hey hey. Calm down.
It's fine already.
Your face is full of mud. Stop moving around.
Thank you, Koukin.
Koukin, you're badly injured too!
You need to wipe this cleanly.
And...
There you go!
Thank you, Hakufu.
Chuubou.
I have to apologise to you too.
To be truthful, I always doubted whether you were Hakufu's real sister.
But after seeing your power just now, I believe it is true.
The bonds between you two sisters are real.
Like real sisters.
Koukin, what are you saying? What did Chuubou do?
Hakufu-oneesama, Koukin-oniisama.
I think I would have to tell you guys sooner or later.
I am...
Hakufu-oneesama, Koukin-oniisama.
You guys have always been gentle with me,
who appeared out of nowhere claiming to be your sister.
It makes me feel really happy.
But, I cannot bring you guys anymore trouble.
Actually...
