At Mt. Ooe, there was a large spear flying through the air. This flaming show of a think would come spiraling past the head of a blond young woman whose horns stood pround and true. Her hands a monstrous bloodstained red, reached up with claws to pluck this missile from the sky. And what was more she didn't even seem to mind the fires that coated it. They dissipated around her fist and she chuckled. "Hehe! Seems like its time for my return. This time I'll kill him if he crosses me!" there was something of a huge grin on her face. The last time she'd been summoned, she'd been part of the group to convince her idiot of a brother into not trying to kill some random strong Oni girl. He was so short-sighted, ill-tempered and the like. If they didn't look alike, she'd almost assume they weren't related at all. Whatever the case it would take a few extra moments as she headed towards the spot, but she had to let the group know that she was on her way back, so a scorching heat encased this spear and the girl's arm grew even more monstrous. Here and now she'd throw back that same spear with her own power emanating from it. In the meantime, it would be Shuten who shrugged off her brother's commentary. "Name? Well, that one's easily fixed by ones like us right... if she's wort..." her sentence was cut off as she jumped out of the way of the flaming spear which landed direct beside her. Something of a snarky grin spread across her face as she saw this thing and felt the flames which belonged to a different Oni than Rengoku. "Fufu, well hello there~" mused Shuten knowing when this girl showed up, she would most definitely like her.
The words of this lad became more and more entertaining, even to one like Kuroka. She always found conversations with other clever people to be interesting and this lad seemed to be one of the smarter she'd had contact with. The size of the white snake, as well as the boy's true form were revealed in the next few moments. What was more, he was quite adamant about the idea that the pair of Adventurers he'd been monitoring were a couple. "Observational skills, patience, deeper understanding of the land. The ability to grasp the nature of this faction and understand the deeper problems surrounding you... good." Kuroka's conclusion came with a certain amount of insight. This lad was indeed on the same side of this problem as the Adventurers. Beyond that he had extra knowledge they'd definitely find useful, and he intended to use her as a bridge, because what those two hid, even he wasn't quite sure of yet. That showed a decent amount of planning and a proper bit of caution. "Caution can be rewarded in this case, if you don't plan a simple revolution, then what is it you need from us? I can without much extra information be certain that those two don't simply plan to take a head, they are here for something more complete so they can leave in good faith," she said softly. "I already agreed to do what I can to help, so I can help you as well."
