[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Is Kyouko still with us?

> She is.
> You exit the hole.
> You think you are... somewhere in the Youkai Mountain.

Kiku-chan:

>Approach Koa.
>"What happened ?"

> You approach to Koakuma.
> "W-Well..."
> "Remi and Flan were arguing." Patchouli starts.
> "It seems that Lady Flandre wanted again to go out... but, as usual, the Mistress denied the request... T-That started another of their fights..." Koakuma continues.
> Sakuya leaves. It seems she's following Remilia.

Niji-chan:

>"Alright, so we have you two infuse these books with the amount of magic you put on the bowl before, them have Shanghai and Hourai do that thing alone."

> "What if the body exchange effect triggers immediately when we do that?" Marisa asks.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Uh... W-Well, we're out."
>Continue towards the mansion and lake.

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Uh... W-Well, we're out."
>Continue towards the mansion and lake.

> You are about to go towards the lake, but Kyouko stops you.
> "Since you don't want to tell me about why are you helping Remilia... you want me to follow you?" She asks.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"If you do come, she probably won't let you be wherever I have to go to help. I think Kiku might be there though, so, if you want to come, that's something..."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"If you do come, she probably won't let you be wherever I have to go to help. I think Kiku might be there though, so, if you want to come, that's something..."

> "... Okay." Kyouko nods.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Continue quickly.

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Continue quickly.

> You continue your way towards the Scarlet Devil Mansion.
> You think... uh... there are sheeps concentrated in a certain point of the mountain...

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>Follow Sakuya !
>"...afterwards, should i go see Miss Flan ?"

Niji-chan:

>"It should happen only when the come in contact."

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>Follow Sakuya !
>"...afterwards, should i go see Miss Flan ?"

> You follow Sakuya.
> "Please, let me handle the Mistress." Sakuya says.

Niji-chan:

>"It should happen only when the come in contact."

> "That makes sense... ... I guess." Marisa starts to return to the outside of the house.
> "Shang? Shanghai?" Hourai floats in front of you and asks.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Weird... we should check that out later..."
>Continue.

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Uh..."
>Pay close attention to the tonality and intensity of her words, maybe we can make something off it.

Kiku-chan:

>"Yet she requested both of us."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Weird... we should check that out later..."
>Continue.

> "Uh... Yeah..."
> You continue.
> You notice that someone is approaching from to mountain to both of you.

Niji-chan:

>"Uh..."
>Pay close attention to the tonality and intensity of her words, maybe we can make something off it.

> You frown a bit, trying to decipher what Hourai is saying.
> "Shang? Shanghai? (Su-? -rk?)" She repeats.

Kiku-chan:

>"Yet she requested both of us."

> "... Fine." Sakuya sighs.
> "Indeed." Remilia stops and turns to see both of you.
> _

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>"M-Mistress..."
>Bow.

Niji-chan:

>"Talk a bit more clearly please Shanghai, i'm trying to learn how to understand you...."
>Keep trying.

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>"M-Mistress..."
>Bow.

> You bow.
> "Why you took so long to return?" Remilia asks. She still has her upset face. "Bah. It doesn't matter now."
> "May I ask, Mistress?" Sakuya asks.
> "I was looking forward for you to make the cake for Flandre... but now you know what? Screw that." Remilia continues, starting to go upstairs.
> Sakuya remains silent as she looks Remilia leaving the sight of both of you.

Niji-chan:

>"Talk a bit more clearly please Shanghai, i'm trying to learn how to understand you...."
>Keep trying.

> "Shang? Shanghai? (You sure? It will work?)" She repeats once more, with a more clearer tone.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Well it's just a theory, so maybe.... Wait..."
>Smile.
>"I understood you !"

Kiku-chan:

>"So their relationship is this sour.... are they orphans ?"

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Well it's just a theory, so maybe.... Wait..."
>Smile.
>"I understood you !"

> Hourai smiles. "Shanghai! Shang sha shanghai shang! (Yes! Miss-? -same!)"
> "Hourai rai houuuraaai. (It wasn't-? -raaai.)

Kiku-chan:

>"So their relationship is this sour.... are they orphans ?"

> "I'm not really sure." Sakuya replies. "The Mistress doesn't talk that much about their past."
> _

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>"The past...."
>Frown.
>"At least you two know your past... Even if you want to keep it private..."

Niji-chan:

>"Um... Please say it more calmly... I didn't get it all..."

Daiko-kun:

>Try to identify.

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>"The past...."
>Frown.
>"At least you two know your past... Even if you want to keep it private..."

> Sakuya close her eyes. "There are some things that are better if they aren't said... It's better if we maintain them in a... private square..." She looks at you. "And I suppose that's what the Mistress is trying to do too."

Niji-chan:

>"Um... Please say it more calmly... I didn't get it all..."

> Both of them repeat, this time more slowly.
> Hourai said: "Yes! Miss Kokoro was able to do the same!"
> While Shanghai said: "It wasn't the big deal. Huuurraaay..."

Daiko-kun:

>Try to identify.

> You identify said figure. It's Hatate.
> She is now flying besides you.
> "Where's Aya?" She asks.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Hey !"
>Pout and pet 'Shanghai'.
>"It's a big deal for me."

Kiku-chan:

>"Hm... that might be true... it's just that ever since that day, Daiko and i have been frowning upon secrets in general..."

Daiko-kun:

>Do we know ?

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Hey !"
>Pout and pet 'Shanghai'.
>"It's a big deal for me."

> You pet Shanghai.
> "Rai hourai, rai rai? Rairai hour rai. (It's easy to understand us, isn't it? It just took minutes for you to do it.)" She says.
> "Shanghai. Shang shanghai? (But it's good. Shall we follow Alice?)" Hourai says.

Kiku-chan:

>"Hm... that might be true... it's just that ever since that day, Daiko and i have been frowning upon secrets in general..."

> "Hm..." She looks at Flandre's room. "... Can I entrust you with Lady Flandre, Kiku?"

Daiko-kun:

>Do we know ?

> She asked Satori for a book about tremors, back there in the palace. You think she's still there.
> "Why isn't she with you now?" Hatate asks.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Grandma Sakura and others are helping her still."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Grandma Sakura and others are helping her still."

> "... You know when she's going to be available?" She asks.
> _

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>"Of course, i wanna hear her part of the story anyways."
>Nod.
>"Please care for the Mistress."
>Head to Miss Flan's room.

Niji-chan:

>Nod and follow.

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>"Of course, i wanna hear her part of the story anyways."
>Nod.
>"Please care for the Mistress."
>Head to Miss Flan's room.

> Sakuya nods.
> You head to the room of Flandre.
> You can hear... sobs inside... There's also some ripping sounds.

Niji-chan:

>Nod and follow.

> You follow Marisa. The two dolls do the same.
> When you exit the house, you see Marisa and Alice grabbing one book each one.
> "Now we infuse our magic in there?"
> "I think so..." Marisa looks at you. "It's that right?"
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Do you want something with her?"

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Do you want something with her?"

> "I... I'd like to talk with her. It's... something serious." She frowns a bit.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Do you want me to tell her you want to talk, or are you just gonna wait til everything they're doing down there is done and you do it yourself?"
>Are we still flying?

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Yes, but stay apart of each other, Shanghai, Hourai, once those two infuse the books, you will take them and group up, then touch the books together, that might work."

Kiku-chan:

>Knock.
>"Miss Flan, may i come in ?"

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Do you want me to tell her you want to talk, or are you just gonna wait til everything they're doing down there is done and you do it yourself?"
>Are we still flying?

> You are. You can see the mansion.
> "... I'd like her to go to the mountain so we can talk. It's with someone else too, so..."

Niji-chan:

>"Yes, but stay apart of each other, Shanghai, Hourai, once those two infuse the books, you will take them and group up, then touch the books together, that might work."

> The exchanged lovers nod and they separate.
> You can see how their books glow a bit.
> Shanghai and Hourai look at each other, and each one approach Marisa and Alice individually. They grab the books.

Kiku-chan:

>Knock.
>"Miss Flan, may i come in ?"

> Sniff. "Y-Y-Yea..." She replies.
> _

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>Enter !
>"Wanna have a chat ?"

Niji-chan:

>"Okay, now everyone stand back while Shanghai and Hourai group up and combine the books.
>Do so.
