Shoujo Grand Summoning Chapter 1135: A conversation? Leaving for a while?

"Good morning..."

Someone dragged their feet to the living room. It took them two minutes to enter the living room. Finally, Wu Yan and Kotori appeared from the door in their school uniforms.

"Onee-chan!"

Kotori who is wearing a black ribbon greeted her sister with an innocent smile.

"Onii-chan's out of bed!"

Shiori's smile turned bitter when she saw the lethargic look on Wu Yan's zombie-like face.

"Since Kotori woke you up, would it kill you to perk yourself up?"

Said Shiori, this line was a line Wu Yan got used to hearing during his stay here at the Itsuka residence.

"It's one of the most enjoyable things to do in life, Shiori, you would never understand the sweet sensation of sleeping in..."

"I don't want to!"

Shiori shot him an annoyed look.

"If you're this lazy then don't come crying to me when you can't find a girlfriend..."

Shiori said, forgetting that Tohka's Wu Yan's girlfriend. Kurumi is also Wu Yan's fiancee.

Wu Yan raised an eyebrow at Tohka who is wolfing down the food on the dining table. Meanwhile, Kurumi ate her breakfast like an elegant lady. She also gave Kotori a glance coupled with a grin.

"Thanks for your concern."

"You..."

Shiori helplessly shook her head.

"Fine, hurry up and eat your breakfast, you're going to be late for school!"

"Kay~"

Everyone replied at once. Shiori's done with these people, she started preparing a portion for the newcomers.

Tohka already wiped out 70% of the breakfast by herself. Without preparing, the others would not have anything to eat, including Shiori.

Kurumi suddenly interrupted Shiori.

"Itsuka-san, I have something to talk to you about..."

Shiori pointed at her nose.

"Me?"

Kurumi nodded with a smile. Shiori's puzzled as to why she got singled out.

"Are you sure you want to talk to me?"

Kurumi blinked despite Shiori's visible confusion. She laughed out loud.

"Ara, Itsuka-san, is it that astonishing for me to talk to you?"

"I-It's not like that..."

Shiori shifted her gaze away.

"It's the first time you sought me out..."

Because of Kurumi's identity as Shido's fiancee, Shiori who allied herself with Tohka stayed at a professional distance from Kurumi. They rarely talked so it's rare for Kurumi to do this out of the blue.

"I just want to talk to you about something..."

Kurumi closed her eyes. She then said something everyone excluding Wu Yan couldn't ignore.

"I am going to leave this house for a period of time..."

"You're leaving?!"

Shiori gasped. Tohka also stopped eating as she's stunned by this revelation. Both Tohka and Yoshino looked at Kurumi in astonishment. Kotori almost spat out the contents of her mouth.

"Why didn't you mention this earlier? This is super important!"

"Nn?"

Shiori frowned when she detected the rare outburst from Kotori. Kotori returned to her fake imouto mode. However, her red eyes are still on Kurumi, those eyes had anxiety and suspicion mixed into them.

"Tokisaki-san, are you really planning on leaving?"

Shiori asked Kurumi.

"Mind if I ask why?"

"Ara, it's nothing big, don't worry about it, Shiori-san..."

Kurumi poked her cheek with her index finger.

"My family's worried so I am heading back to say hi..."

Kurumi expressed that with regret.

"My home's a bit far so the journey will be long and time-consuming. I also need someone to tell the school about my extended leave. This is why I decided to tell Itsuka-san..."

Kotori opened her mouth but stopped because Shiori's still here. She kept glaring at Kurumi.

Shiori didn't think too much, she nodded after a slight pause.

"If it's like that then it can't be helped..."

"Thanks for taking care of me all this time..."

Kurumi curtsied towards Shiori. Without elegance or etiquette lessons, Shiori wasn't sure how to respond.

"If that's the case then let's make tonight a feast! We will throw a party to send Tokisaki-san away."

"Ara..."

Kurumi giggled.

"Thanks for the treatment."

"Nah, don't mind it..."

Shiori waved her hand before entering the kitchen.

"What's going on here?!"

Kotori immediately interrogated Kurumi when Shiori left.

"You're joking, right? Leaving?"

"I am not..."

Kurumi shook her head.

"I do have something to do and that requires my absence..."

Kotori's expression sank.

"Don't forget Ratatoskr's sanction against you."

Kotori said with an angry voice.

"You're a spirit so Ratatoskr placed you under restrictive observation. If you do anything out of line then you're going into the slammer, I hope you're prepared to kiss the sunlight goodbye."

Kurumi's expression didn't change despite Kotori's hostile warning.

Tohka and Yoshino also held their breaths. They looked on with worry and consternation. They weren't sure how to deal with the heavy mood.

Wu Yan finally spoke up.

"Kotori, I gave her the permission."

"You?..."

Kotori questioned Wu Yan with a frown.

"Why?"

"Because this is something Kurumi has to do."

Wu Yan shook his head.

"Kotori, just let Kurumi leave for a short while..."

"Kurumi is under Ratatoskr's supervision!"

She insisted.

"Ratatoskr isn't mine to do as I please. Kurumi also killed over 10,000 humans, this isn't a wise decision, it might come back to bite us in the future."

"We will respond when that situation does occur."

Wu Yan replied.

"Kotori, could it be that you don't trust Kurumi?"

Kotori furrowed her brows. She finally sighed after one last look at Kurumi.

"It's not that I don't trust her. Kurumi is a dangerous person in other people's eyes. Since you gave her the permission to leave then I am guessing you also unsealed her Reiryoku? How am I supposed to relax with her on the loose?"

"Even assuming my trust in her, you know what her Angel's side effect, right?..."

"Ara, if it's that then you can relax."

Kurumi revealed a devilish grin.

"To ensure I had ample Time to use Zafkiel, hubby-sama gave me a lot of Time..."

Kurumi licked her lips while recalling what transpired last night.

"If I don't use the eleventh or twelfth bullet, I should be able to continuously use my Angel for a few years before exhausting my stock of Time. I don't need to hunt anyone. I promise I won't harm a single hair on any civilians..."

Kotori's conflicted.

She eyed Kurumi and Wu Yan who nodded towards her. She sank her head as she waxed thoughtful.
