~The Next Day~
Shiki was seen sitting inside of the headquarters of the Demon Hunter Organization. Right now, Ochita and Shiranui had him come since both of them had important news to share. Right now, Shiki was sitting down in the lobby as he simply looked at the floor with his hair shadowing his eyes.

"Koritsu-kun, i'm sorry for the wait. My investigation is done and I found what you asked for."

"Then......"

"Yes, Kazuha Mirei's parents are currently in this facility. Follow me, please."

Soon Shiki stood up from bench and walked with Ochita to the elevator. The two of them were heading towards the lower levels of the organization. As the two of them were travelling down, Ochita noticed how Shiki hasn't said a single word. Before Ochita could say anything, he realized that they reached their destination. Right now, they were in the basement of the organization's headquarters. Standing in front of them was Shiranui, who was simply looking at two bodies of what seemed to be victims of Mahito.

"Shiranui-san, I have brought Koritsu-kun as you demanded. I shall head back to the church to brief Olivia and Megumi about the situation."

"Thank you, Ochita-san, you are dismissed."

Ochita merely nods his head as he began to walk out the room. Just before he left, he took a quick glance at Shiki. He couldn't help but feel worried for the boy, even more so since he will be alone with Shiranui.  The moment the priest left the room, Shiranui decided to break the ice.

"As you requested yesterday, we went to that Mirei girl's apartment. Both of her parents were transfigured into these two dead mutated creatures you see here. As for why this happened, I can only assume this to be a declaration of war against you personally."

"........."

"First things first, before I fulfill my end of the binding vow with Asuramaru, I need to put you through a test. From here on out, missions will be even more dangerous. As such, I need to see if you are up to par. That's why for this, I have one special rule. You aren't allowed to use Asuramaru against me and must land one vital hit on me. If it turns out you're only strong because Asuramaru, then you can forg-"

Suddenly Shiranui felt a chill down their spine. For a split second, they thought their head was decapitated. They quickly jumped backwards to avoid a swing from Shiki. When they looked at the boy's right hand, they saw a latch to a watch in his hand. However, what truly surprised Shiranui was the fact Shiki wasn't using his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

"First Toji, now you. I think you both are mistaken about something. I was a threat even before I had Asuramaru."

In just a second, Shiki was in front of Shiranui as he swung the sharp end of the watch's latch at Shiranui. Shiranui smiled as they simply dodged each strike with ease. However, the moment Shiki performed his last swing, Shiranui noticed the watch was no longer in the boy's right hand.

Shiki swiftly swung his left hand at Shiranui as he was holding the switchblade he use to fight with before meeting Asuramaru. Seeing this, Shiranui tried to jump back but they felt themselves stepping on something that caused them to fall down instead. When they looked to the ground, they saw that the object they stepped on when trying to jump away was the watch from earlier.

Just as Shiranui's body hit the ground, they saw Shiki's knife stabbed inches away from the ground. Not only that, Shiki was on top of their body as his now cold green eyes were staring at them. Shiranui felt themselves beginning to breathe heavy as they were feeling hot. Soon Shiki only said one thing to them.

"Still think i'm only strong because of Asuramaru?"

"No....not anymore. You surpassed my expectations, my adorable killer. For now, talk to me, Asuramaru."

The moment Shiranui said this, they saw flame like markings appearing on Shiki's right cheek and going down his neck. Seeing this, Shiranui smirked and wrapped their arms around Shiki's neck. As they leaned in towards their right ear, they whispered their real name. The moment Asuramaru heard this, a look of pure rage was seen forming on their face as they stood up and walked from the room.

"I knew you couldn't be Shiranui. I remember killing my best friend with my own hands. That's why .........I'll slaughter you for using their name like that you bastard!!!!!"

~Nighttime~
Mahito and Naoya were seen walking down a hallway as everyone was called for an important announcement. As the two of them were walking, they saw Seigi and the small shadow-like devil on his shoulder. Seeing as Mahito and Naoya are here, the small devil chuckled.

"I am glad you are all here. Sadly, the other two members couldn't come. You all will be able to witness it in their stead. The day we have long waited for is finally here."

As the shadow like creature said this, it fell to the ground as it dissolved in the shadows. Soon everyone in the room saw something crawling from out of the shadows. Instead of the small devil creature, they found something else.

It was a relatively tall, slim young man with fair skin and green eyes. He has uniquely styled black hair with long spikes that jut out in every direction around his head, resembling a sea-urchin. His clothes consisted of a dark blue jacket over a long-sleeved white dress shirt. His pants matched his jacket and only reach to just above his shins. He wears long black socks that cover his exposed ankles and finishes his outfit with low-top brown shoes. While Mahito only looked in confusion, Naoya couldn't hide his look of horror?

"How? You were declared as dead. How are you here?"

"Heh, what do you mean?"

"Don't play games with me?! HOW ARE YOU HERE, FUSHIGURO MEGUMI!!!"

"Pffft. Hahahahahah. You really think i'm Fushiguro Megumi? That's priceless. But since we are comrades, it's only fair that you know who you are working with."

As he said this, the young man began to lift up his hair as he revealed stitches all around it. Soon he began to undo the stitches and once he was finished, he began to remove the top of his head. Naoya fought the urge to vomit with what he saw. The moment he took off the top of his head, the young man revealed his brain.

"Nice to meet you all. As the owner of Fushiguro Megumi's body, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Kenjaku and today we shall celebrate this great occasion. Tonight is the night our master, Eve, shall awaken. But first, we must take care of an unwelcomed guest."

The moment Kenjaku said this, the group felt a strong surge of cursed energy inside of the room as someone bursts through the wall. Naoya can only look at the man in anger as he saw the familiar shoulder-length brown hair and piercing green eyes. However, Kenjaku merely smiled upon seeing this man.

"Hmm, it's true, the binding vow stated if you helped then we would let you see Naoya again. Well then, what will you do now, Mukuro Zenin?"

"As a father, I did my task in doing whatever it takes to see my child. But now, I'm here as a head of the Zenin clan. After I exercise you, i'm disciplining that brat like no tomorrow."

~Meanwhile~
As Shiki was walking back to his house, he noticed that his father was sitting at a table with tea. However, the look in his eyes were very different. Instead of the tired gaze they usually wore, it was replaced with a deadly seriousness. Ayumu motioned for his son to sit at the table and Shiki complied. The moment that Shiki sat down, Ayumu took a deep breath as he was trying to prepare yourself.

"I can't hide this any longer. It's time I tell you the truth and remind you of the past you have long forgotten. It's time I tell you.....about our roots as former members of the Nanaya clan."
