As Nagisa and Yuuki were standing in front of her, Aoba decided it was time they learned the truth. The truth about what happened to everyone here in the hidden village. Soon Naon stepped forward as to provide an example of someone's experience that led them to here.

"Then one day, I faced a Mato Disaster. I was being chased by shuuki before the Anti-Demon Corps could arrive. It was that moment that I found a peach tree in front of me. I didn't want to die there, if I could have an ability to drive away the shuuki, I wanted to take that chance. After eating the peach, it's power ran wild and I passed out. But it only got worse when I woke up."

~Flashback~

"Young lady, after you were found, the place you had collapsed. You were then rushed to the hospital. However, once there, we had an omen and brought you here. This is the Onmyou Agency, we deal with the study of shuuki in this institute."

"Shuuki?! But i'm huma-"

The moment she tried to move, Naon felt a burning sensation on her left hand. The moment she looked at it, she noticed how it was no longer a normal human hand. Right now, it was a sharp claw more akin to a shuuki.

"This is an accident that rarely happens when a peach is eaten inside of Mato. The power of the peach acts wildly and your body becomes inhuman. This does not happen in our world, so we deduce it is due to the miasma present here in Mato. Forgive us for not giving a satisfactory answer, we must research more. For now, we simply ask for your cooperation as a research subject, being the valuable existence you are."

"Research? No, turn me back! Please cure me! Turn me back to my beautiful self!!!"

"As our research progresses, we will find a way to cure you."

~Flashback ends~
"They provided us with essentials under surveillance, but they paid no need to our voices on important matters. They examined my whole body and treated me like a lab rat. After discovering my ability to hide within things, I used it to escape and took others like myself with me the moment I had a chance."

Yuuki and Nagisa couldn't believe what they heard. While Yuuki had a look of horror on his face, Nagisa's eyes were shadowed by his hair as he felt anger swelling up inside of him. Everything Naon just said brought a dark thought to his mind and made him remember something from the past. However, before he could ask her, he shook his head and spoke to Aoba to get more info.

"Aoba, were you also in that situation too?"

"No, my situation is a bit different, Nagi. My rampage was pretty bad. I stumbled upon the Hidden Village and spent years fighting to keep my human mind. I only met them once I calmed down."

Afterwards, Yuuki and Nagisa let the girls speak their minds. They tried to denounce the Onmyou Agency's doings but we're crushed by their ability. The agency was an organization that believed Mato was an existence meant to help their country profit. After everything that happened to them, they want nothing more than to destroy the agency.

"I get that you're angry, but there will be a lot of casualties if you do that. There's no way the Anti-Demon Corps would stay quiet if they listened to what you told me."

"That's not exactly the problem, Yuuki."

"Nagi......."

"If anything, at least ONE person should know about the agency's true colors, that would be the commander. If the commander knows about it but continued to let it happen, then anything we do would fall on deaf ears."

Yuuki was frustrated, Nagi had a reasonable argument. If the leader really did know already and this is still continuing, what good would telling anyone lower be. As the two boys were trying to find out what to do next, their attention shifted towards Aoba when they heard the girl's voice.

"Don't worry. We'll find a cure for us with our own strengths. Anyways.........."

~The Entrance of Hidden Village~
"We're really close to the border. Is Nagi-chan really here?"

"Yuukey, where are you?"

Right now, both the seventh and sixth Unit were currently near the border of Mato. Thanks to Tenka's ability, they were able to save time traveling here. Right now, Kyouka was their means of finding Yuuki and Nagisa.

Suddenly a horde of Shuuki began to emerge from the entrance. Along with them, Koko was seen riding on top of Kuma's back as the two of them were ready to attack. Seeing this, Shushu and Sahara agreed to stay back as the rest of the group go inside of the cave to rescue Yuuki and Nagisa.

~Meanwhile~
As the rest of the group was rushing deeper into the hidden village, they noticed how the cavern was vastly different from the cave at Mato's center that the expedition team of the corps was exploring. This one was narrow and there were no peaches.

However, the group was interrupted from their thoughts as they looked at what was up ahead. Standing before them was another group of shuuki. However, this time, it was now Akura that was assisting these shuuki.

~With Yuuki and Nagisa~
As the two boys stood before Aoba and Kidomaru, they heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer. As everyone turned to the source, all that was seen was Kyouka. Just as Yuuki tried to rush over to her, Aoba put her left arm in front of the boy.

"I didn't think you would make it this far. Are your allies hid-"

Before Aoba could finish her sentence, she was shocked to see Tenka having her arms wrapped around both Yuuki and Nagisa. Just as she tried to attack Tenka, she saw how the sixth unit chief was suddenly next to Kyouka. Before she could even get to them, all Aoba could do was watch Tenka teleport all of them away.

"Tch...I've got the gist of that ability now."

~With Nagisa~
"Heh, you sure took your sweet time. But glad you guys came to get u-"

Just as Nagisa was about to thank Tenka and Kyouka, he saw that Kyouka was currently licking Yuuki's hand and sucking his fingers. As if that wasn't enough, he even saw Tenka joining in on the action.

"Why are you doing this Tenka? This is compensation for my ability, so I have to do this so I can move freely."

"I'm giving him a reward for doing his best."

".............you'd think I'd be use to this shit after everything that happened since coming to Mato, but even I think this is weird."

As Nagisa said this, he began to stretch his body as he soon began to walk away. Noticing this, Tenka told Nagisa about where the rest of the group were and who they were fighting. Nodding his head at the information, Nagisa began to run towards the entrance of the hidden village.

"I'm not worried about the Azuma sisters, they're actually pretty smart in situations like this, but if Shushu and Sahara are facing Koko, they might have some trouble. Alright, after helping them, i'll regroup with the others. Then............"

"........i'll find out if those bastards of the Onmyou Agency were behind what happened to me and my sister."
