A group of mouryous led by Arata (blond tanuki) being chased by Nagusa
Mobs called her Leader.
after a brief exchange, Nagusa rekt them singlehandedly and start interrogating
mouryou were planning have some fun blowing up stuffs before the festival
Nagusa:well, its time to stop
A: who are you to stop us... wait, shes a member of the Hyakkaryouran Conflict Resolution Council
the fabled Hyakkaryouran?
N: no, its just cosplay
N: i came to return (that thing), im not a Hyakkaryouran anymore. Well then,
*gun sounds

cuts to another day of wageslaving at Schale
phone rings
its Niya
after some casual greeting. She asks (You) to come to Hyakki, for the upcoming festival. But also for a "personal request"
(?)
N: "If you come, you can pet the adorable Chise-nyan"
(nyan?)
Chise was right next to her
C: Nyan?
N: well ill see you there.
ends call
(flashback to Kuzunoha)
K: theres no way to revert someone affected by color
its the law, just like how the dead cannot come back to the living
still, if there someone in need, do bring them
(maybe i can see her about it)

arrive at festive Hyakki
(you) come across Yukarimidomo addressing to bunch of Gang Automatons stealing this doge wallet
"got any evidence girl?"
"its okay young lady, you have better things to worry about. whats lost lost"
"see? he himself gave up. can we leave?"
Yukari gets angry, readying her guns
"oh so thats how you like it?" click
(you) casually walk in
(what seems to be the problem here?)
"who the hell are y- ACK!"
Yukari came from behind, attacked the distracted bots, dropped the wallet
Y: "You see i told you!"
G: "what the this bitch"
Gang automatons calls in reinforcement
Y: ... eh?
aru face
Y: "Anata-sama" ?
(Let me help)
Y: okay!
Battle start

Desuwa Archive 3.1

Thanks to (you) Yukari won
GA: oh shit thats Schale sensei. fucking run
Y: Your instructions were marvelous, I can feel we were completely in sync down to every breath, its as if im reunited with my belove pet dog when i was little.
Y: Could it be, Anata-sama was someone I was seperated at birth? Could it be we were actually childhood friends?
(uhh, probably not...)
Y: aw... really
(she looks very disappointed)
Doge: thank you young lady, those uniform, are you a Hyakkaryoukan?
Y: well, um...
D: oh right, that cant be, i heard they are on restraining order of some sort and disbanded
Y: No!
Y: thats how the rumors flown by?... wait, i dont want to be found out that i escaped, better stop here
(...?)
Doge: well, thanks you too for the help left
Y: Well then, anata-sama, I wish to offer my greetings once more.
My name is Yukari. I extend my deepest gratitude for your assistance.
(its my duty to help students in need)
Y: helping others as if they are natural, and not being boastful about it...I heard it from Renge-senpai. Such behavior is definitely a trap!
At first you pretending to be all kind, but slowly you will be all "hey hey its me!" then asks for ungodly amount of money. Is that what am getting into...
(no no. I'm not such scammer I'm Sensei of Schale)
Y: I'm so sorry. How could i ever repay you?
...
Y: okay its decided! Let me be your tour guide for Hyakkiyako.
tug your arm
(uhh, there something i need to do)
Y: this way sensei!
(yukari, pulling your hand constantly, shows you around)
prepration for festival in full force
(this one festival, seems special than others)
Y: this is the first revival in 20 years of Hyakki Lantern festival
once upon a time, Hyakkiyako Academy overcame a period of conlifct, reborn and became Hyakkiyako Alliance Academy but all the scars from the war were still remain

(holy fuck its long and hard to read)

Desuwa Archive 3.2

Y: to relive the pain and worries of citizen, the Head of Hyakki at the time proposed the Hyakki Lantern festival
(why was it abolished)
well i dont know...
Bystanders: such trivial things arent important
what matters is everyone joining force to create something wonderful
I must thank the president of the festival management committee. Shes always full of energy
(shizuko...)
B: oh i heard the shrine maidens will perform a ritual at the festival
Y: Everyone having such mindset... Yet, me, and Hyakkaryoukan...
Birb nanny: OHime-sama!! Are you there? i was worried since you stormed out of the mansion once you heard the dissolution order!
Y: !!
(?)
Y: (I cant let myself be found here...)
Y: ehem, Sensei, Thank you so much for today. I will never forget your kindness.
Birb: please come with me!
Y: i dont have time to explain, well then *flies off
(shes a fast one)

arriving at Yin-yang club
N: hello sensei, good to see you again nyahaha
K: Welcome sensei
C: yaho sensei
(its been a while)
N: yeah, its been quite some time since "that" day
C: uhhh
hazy
sensei face
i remeber
until just now, i forgot
K: Chise-chan haiku! I have to record it!
(ahaha, when Chise said it, i thought she wasnt joking)
C: ...?
(you werent???)
N: Nyahaha. Well regardless
its been quite busy here
K: restoration of destroyed facilities, aproving recovery budget,...
N: Nyahaha, if its Kaho, you will defenitely feel better with Sensei being here
(about the festival)
N: hmm yes, Shizuko seems overly enthusiastic with it, with no regard to the consequences
N: well whatever, its convenient for us as well.
K: Niya?
(what you mean)
N: The current festival, is perfect for the current situation.
A perfect chance to brighten up the school, tired of restoration work, one can say
K: its true that the atmosphere has been a bit down
N: Chise has been practicing for her performance.
C: ill do my best!
K: Chise-chan...
Well, the workload has increased, everyone do your best!
N: dont ruin the mood...
K: angery dont fucking run away this time Niya-sama
N: shriek hey hey what are you
well whatever, sensei, since you came here, lets get you comfortable too
would you like me to call Shizuko?
or rather, would petting Chise-nyan be fine with you?
C: Nyan?
(if only thats all there is to it huh?)
N: oh dear, how could sensei look at a cute student with such suspicious face
Even though im trying my best to gain sensei trust, am i giving such a bad impression? *sob
(s-sorry...)
N: well its true there something i would like to discuss
(I thought so)
K: Niya... thats...

N: this came into the Yin-yang club few days ago
Kaho said it might just be a prank but i should tell you regardless
(a letter?)
yes, from "Nature Beauty club"
the club that existed the hyakki old myth, a letter sent across the ages.
(myth?)
The Nature Beauty club, rumored to exist in the old Hyakkiyako
its a kind of urban legend, a gossip, so to speak.
"A hundred ghost stories(百物語)" you can say
they are said to be a nefarious club that opposed the union of the Hyakkiyako Alliance, demons that manipulate records and swindle people, etc...
(sounds scary, what does it say)
N: It said
"Our grace has not ended; such ambiance is to be savored with many.
"The fun has just begun, and at that moment when we look up to the grand flowers blooming in the sky,"
{Once more—I shall come to visit you all.}
N: well, i dont think we need any drastic measures. These things happen during festivals.
K: Yeah, its usual for those Mouryo gang to impersonate GSC/Schale threatening to cancel the festival if Mouryo not getting enough coupons, dumbs stuff like that.
N: I know you like to help, but we have had the Hyakkaryoukan dealing with it
but as you know, the chairman and VP of HYKRK disappeared
and finally, yesterday, an official "dissolution order" was issued
(is it really?)
N: now that its been disband, the Yinyang club must take on the task in its place. but we're so busy already...
thats why im asking you
of course its because i want everyone to enjoy the festival hehe
(Niya sure is honest and responsible)
However, I do realize that constantly making such selfish requests could lead people to think of me as self-centered.
But given the circumstances, I would like to say that I want to take whatever measures I can. I want to fulfill my responsibilities to the best of my ability. If it's for that purpose, I wouldn't mind confessing my true feelings to (you)
(yeah right as expected, Niya)

Desuwa Archive 4.3

N: ahaha sensei, are you disappointed in me that im always plotting stuffs
(whatever you say, deep down i know you care about everyone)(Its how Niya is)
N: ara, i'm a two-faced one
(eh? thats not what i mean)
N: If you keep indulging people's selfishness like this, you might end up in some serious trouble, you know?
After all, we can't rule out the possibility that there are still secrets being kept.
Even I am, shall we say, a bit worried.
(I'll keep that in mind, but still, I want to help Niya)
N: Ara, i cant believe sensei is giving me his strength, I'm so happy <3 Right Kaho
K: thanks Sensei
C: Yeahhhh thank youuuuu
You are not leaving right?
then ill show you my practice performance
K: Chise-chan performance, in here!?
N: Nyahaha, well i guess thats all for ...
?: HOLD IT
its midomo storming in
Y: The name is Yukari.
Proud 1st-year member of the Hyakkaryouran Conflict Resolution Council, the elite of the elites
I cometh for a heart-to-heart consultation with the president of Yin-yang club
N: huh?

Desuwa Archive 5.1

N: Yukari, of the Kadenokouji clan, i see
(Oh its you)
Y: oh, why is sensei here?
Wait! I get it now!
The reason you helped me, was in anticipation of this development??
just as my senpai said. You cannot be trusted! How could you?
N: Oh my, it seems that you two already developed a complicating relationship without my knowledge...
(No its a misunderstanding)
N: well, Yukari of the Hyakkaryoukan, what business bring you here?
Y: i heard the rumor, HYKRK VP, or rather acting chariman, Nagusa-senpai, has appeared
that day when the sky turned red, We, the Hyakkaryoukan, obtained information that the Yin-Yang Club was working behind the scenes to control the situation.
(where on earth did that)
*refering back the to ninja expedition incident
N: haha, looks like must strengthen my infomation network... great job.
Y: right? no one can match Kikyou senpai in intel gathering.
N; oh, the 2nd year Kiryuu Kikyou?
Y: oh crap, i spilled the beans...
N: indeed, we made contact with Goryou Nagusa
Y: its confirmed! well then, I have a request for the Yinyang club
N: ?
(You want to convince Nagusa to comeback?)
Y: no
So that I may become the chairman of the Hyakkaryoukan—
Please be the witness to the [Hyakkaryoukan Succession Battle]!
(Succession Battle?)
The Hyakkaryoukan is an esteemed council tasked with resolving conflicts, open only to the elite of Hyakkiyako.
The leader must be suitably skilled
If the leadership deems someone unfit, any member can challenge for their position through a 'Succession Battle.'
(they have such system?)
N: i understand your intention, but why a battle?
Y: The current Hyakkaryoukan does not resemble a 'council' in anyone's eyes.
The cause is... Nagusa-senpai, who should stand at the core of the Hyakkaryoukan...
I will defeat her and take over the chairmanship!

Desuwa Archive 5.2

(but Nagusa is only president in acting right?)
Y: yes the current president is Nanakado Ayame
President Ayame left the Hyakkaryouran long ago
She entrusted the 'proof' of the Hyakkaryouran to Nagusa-senpai and then disappeared.
Nagusa-senpai was expected to step up as president.Yet, she declined, choosing to stay as the acting president."
(why?)
"I dont know
I hardly conversed with President Ayame...
Renge and Kikyo-senpai respected her judgment.
No matter, whats important is the future, ~FUUCHAA~
Once im in the president seat, everything shall be resolved
(arent there rules to the battle)
K: Yeah, you need approval of at least 2 members and at least one witness outside of the council.
But, the dissolution decision has already been reached.
Y: I refuse
As long as there are people who love the Hykrr, there can never be a dissolution order.
N: I see. then a succession battle can proceed.
Y: Yes, ~ofukosu~!
N: I need you to understand...
If we kick off a 'Succession Battle' now, it'll look to everyone like you are just taking advantage of the chaos to grab power.
And dragging the Yin-Yang Club into this...
It's kinda like you're trying to rope us into starting a revolt.
Y: ... i understand but
N: Well, lucky for you
Y: theres someone here that wont turn a blind eye to a student in need
(well shes not wrong)
(If Yukari is in trouble, its my duty to help)
N: then its decided, Sensei of Schale shall be the witness.
Just do not forget, this is only possible by the presence of Schale
(You knew exactly this would happen didnt you)
N: Hm? i dont know what you talking about
Might be good opportunity to find Kuzunoha if you get to know Hykrr
(you knew?)
N: nyahaha.
I want to shrug off this impression that im only casuing you trouble. At the very least.
All taketh no giveth, would be a bad relationship to maintain dont'cha think?
(thanks)
N: fufu, thats what i wanted to hear.

Desuwa Archive 6.1

(you) and yukari head out to town after doing all the procedures
(now we need to find the other members)
Y: fufu, with sensei and yin-yang help victory is all but certain!
(hey Yukari, whats the Hyakkaryouran like)
Y: its a council made up of Hyakki's elite of the elites, with a long history date back to even before the creation of the present day Hyakki Alliance Academy
The main purpose was to uphold order, resolve disputes between clubs and factions.
(so similar the Prefect team)
we value Arbitration not Disclipine or Punishment
Most conflicts that occur are the faults of all parties involved. We try to understand each parties, and act as intermediary to reach a reasonable consensus.
It can be difficult at times, but thats why im very proud of what we do
Hyakkaryouran is the ideal i strive for
flashback to picrel
Yukari dealing with bunch of sukebans, throwing a few punches
sukebans calling in more people
Y: ...!
*gunshots
Nagusa saved her
N: are you hurt
Y: im fine
N: good
S: oh fuck that the Hyakkaryouran, run
Renge, Kikyou pursuit

*look at Yukari

N: your unflinching attitude in the face of evil
Really cool
Y: waow
back to present
Thats why i cannot stand and watch the council crumbles.
(btw what is this "proof" you said)
the president of the Hyakkaryouran traditionally inherits something known as the 'Proof of Qualification' from the 'Great Prophet'...
The 'Succession Battle' is apparently a ceremony to inherit it
I havent seen it for myself, but i can show you on our website
(Its a gun?) (the same gun in Yukari's sprite)
Yeah, that's right.
It's a gun that can capture ghosts, passed down from the Great Prophet Kuzunoha, and only the successive presidents have been able to wield it!
or so the legend said
(anyhow, we woould need help)
Y: Yes, Renge and Kikyo-senpai
they were very angry when Nagusa-senpai disappeared
(where are they now?)
Renge-senpai home is nearby, lets go

Desuwa Archive 6.2

arriving at Hyakki Resedential area
Y: Renge-senpai place is down the block
Y: Senpai~ hello?? Its me Yukari

(Yukari, theres a note on the frontdoor)
To whom it may concern
I'm off for a trip to take back my Aoharu
Dont expect return for some time
(Youth?)

Yukari trying to process what it means
flashback
Renge: btw Yukari, you have been wanting to join us ever since middle school, on that day right?
Y: Yeah!
R: i thought Kikyou chased you away, but you would still come, everyday
even if we do nothing but training day and night
Y: i enjoy every moment of it!!
R: well, cant say no to that.
R: but have you thought of spending your youthful time outside of hykrr at least once, like hanging out with friends?
Y: No! not even once!
R: what the..? not even hesitating...
well i dont mind, i enjoyed it too, met Nagusa and you thanks to hykrr
But sometimes i do yearn for that bit a normalcy, something more, cultural i guess.
flashback ends
Y: maybe Renge-senpai joined another club...
(i think she just want to experience different things)
Y: you are probably right
(any idea where she could go?)
Y: no idea...
(you) call Kaho and ask for a Hyakki club list
Y: wow, this is the power and authority of Schale... casually requesting yin-yang club for help just like that. Am i in danger...
(relax)
First club: chlorella observing club
Y: hello there. Is renge-senpai here?
Mobu: Renge? Who?
Y: Renge-senpai!
???
(Yukari, you need to introduce properly...)
Y: oh right so Renge-senpai. She's the type to say, "Anyone who skips morning practice gets a penalty!"...And if there's a grain of rice on my face, she'll tease me about it...But when she finds the Mouryou gang causing trouble, she's right there to handle it...
She's someone I deeply respect...
(they asking for physical description not what you think of her dummy)
Y: oh right, well she has very bright beautiful scarlet hair
M: Scarlet you say? Didnt she joined us on trial a while ago?
M: oh, the one in that light blue haori?
Y: yup yup thats her!
M: Shes a weird one. She was like "Teach me the essence of chlorella observation! Let's work hard and aim for the national tournament!"...
Y: sasuga senpai!
(...)

Desuwa Archive 7.2

Y: so where is she now?
Mobu: she quickly left after realizing she only focused on winning and not doing it for what it is.
Y: aww
(we were one step behind)
Y: we are on the right track. Lets move on
Shogi club
Mobu: yes she did came here
during a match, when asked if she need to call a timeout
R: Are you trying to show me mercy??
M: checkmate
R: AA IM DEFEATED.
M: After that, she said, 'I want to retrain myself for even a moment of wavering,' and after bowing many times, she went home."
Y: Sasuga senpai!

Desuwa Archive 7.3

Fitness Rakugo (???) Club
M: yeah she was here
It was nice when she said our Rakugo expanded her 'dreams of youth'...
But with the festival preparations, we're swamped and just can't take on new members right now. We had to turn her down.
Karuta Cards Club
M: Ah yeah she was here.
She said she was longing for the burning youthful passion in karuta battling.
Well, we had to refuse her membership because the festival is coming up...
(after visiting clubs after clubs but no dice, sensei and Yukari decide to rest)
(offer her some tea)
Y:T-Thank you so much.
At least Renge senpai is trying her hardest without compromise.
(You really do look up to her)
Y: ofukosu!
(well then, next club is)
?: FOUND YOU SENSEI hug
(wah?) tumbles
(Kaede!)
Y: Sensei, are you hurt?
Mimori: Kaede-chan, thats dangerous
Tsubaki: fuwaaa...

Y: sensei? These girls are...
(Inner Discipline Club, this is Yukari of Hyakkaryouran)
Kaede: wah, Hyakkaryouran, but arent they..?
Mimori: hello im Mimori
K: I'm Kaede whos striving to be a wonderful lady!
Tsubaki : hello...
Y: Name's Midori. It's an honor!
I've heard a lot about everyone in the training department.
I know you're always active as a vigilante group around the city
M: yes, always with Kaede-chan and Tsubaki-chan
But im not sure we would be of any help to Hyakkaryouran...
Y: Please dont be modest. Everyone's duties are all wonderful.
M: thank you so much
(so what are you doing here)
K: we are just preparing for the festival
T: Its a request from Festival Operations Department
M: to ensure the safety of the Hyakkiyako Lantern Festival
K: This one is of biggest importance!
(after few more exchanges, its same story as yin-yang club)
K: also at the end, a very beautiful shrine maiden going to perform on stage. Isnt that cool??
(oh? Chise?)
M: no i heard it will be performed by a family clan in charge of the festival 20 years ago.
Y: ...! blush
K: Cant wait! See you soon Sensei!
M: we're gonna go help Shizuko Pina and Umika-chan
(do your best!)
Y: Hmm, i see
M: ??
Y: Wonderful attitude!! EKUSERENTO !
M: W-What?
Y: Holding a festival to relieve everyone of a painful past. Yup, i thinks its great too.
M: oh, Yukari-san? Have we met before? I just have this weird nostalgic feeling...
Y: ...! Seems like its very hot today!
K: nene Sensei, do you have any wish and prayer for this festival.
(fun chatting)
boom
Arata appears
A: found you, Hyakkaryouran, think you are cool huh?
Y: ??? who?
A: no matter, its revenge time!
M: hey hey dont cause trouble!
A: get out of our way. attacks Mimori, Kaede
Tsubaki runs to tank
(are you OK?)

Arata: uwahh ill remember this! retreats
Y: Good job everybody, great co-operation. You too senpai
Renge: Yukari!?

Desuwa Archive 9.1

R: why are you here?
Y: i was looking for you all over.
M: Renge-chan said she wanted to experience what its like to be in Inner Disclipine Club
T: fuwahhh, and so she joined on trial
K: see? the club promotional video i shot was helpful!
So Renge-senpai is also a Hyakkaryouran?
R: well, yeah...
Not like im trying to hide
Y: you are joining club for to find your youth right?
R: hey quiet down you
(club activities sure are part of youth)
R: stop it dont just booasting it around like that
Your student days will pass by in the blink of an eye, so...
Yukari, i dont know why you are trying to find me, but i have decided. I'll spend my youth with the IDC, so just go back
Y: I'm also interested in what IDC is doing!
R: A.Are you listening??
Fine. I'm training to be a "Deep-sleep Lady Fighter" at the Inner Disclipine Club
everyone: ??
(Like, fighting when you are sleeping)
R: W-Whatever you say!
Its my youthful times!
Yukari, it may look strange to you
Y: Wonderful! Always fixated at her goal, thats Renge-senpai i know!
R: R-right
Y: Did Kikyou senpai know?
R: NO. She would be laughing her ass off!
Well, whatever, what do you want with me?
Hyakkaryouran is put on hiatus right?
dont you have your own part in the festival too?
Y: Wah!
(??)
Y: Ehem! Yes i was looking for you. We are planning for Hyakkaryouran Succession Battle!
R: Hah??? What for?
(you fill in on what happened with Yin-yang club)
Y: Yup! Lets go Renge-senpai. We only need Kikyou-senpai left
R: Yukari...
You are still onto that bullshit???
Y: Eh?
R: Like you said, Hyakkaryouran received a [dissolution order]
Kikyou herself made the decision with her authority
M: Hyakkaryouran was ordered to disband?
(its complicated, Mimori)
Y: I-It cant be! Its a mistake.
R: its not

Desuwa Archive 9.2

R: Ever since President Ayame disappeared that day... it was always destined to end up like this.
The president was certainly amazing... but everyone, including you, must have thought it was strange she vanished one day, right?
Nagusa-senpai, who was supposed to take over, left us behind without a word to search for the president.
At that point, it was over.
Y: no thats not true. You havent gave up yet.
You fought those Mouryous. Thats what we Hyakkaryourans do.
R: No. I did it because they were of annoyance. I did it for myself.
Y: but without HYKR, who would protect Hyakkiyako...?
R: That was nothing but pretension
(what do you mean)
R: Sensei of Schale right? You remember that day when the sky turned red?
Hyakkiyako was a mess that day. Monster rampaged the city, everyone was screaming HYKR name for help.
But with the president and vice president gone, all we could do was help the people right in front of us, nothing more.
Me, Kikyou, and you too, Yukari... we all ran around trying to get a handle on the situation.
Do you remember what changed as a result of our actions?
Nothing. Not a single thing... nothing changed
You were involved, so you know.
The problems got solved even without the Hyakkiryouran. Hyakkiyako doesn't need us.
That's right... Whether the president or the vice president is there or not...

even if the Hyakkiryouran disbands, nothing about Hyakkiyako changes.

Nobody needs us.
There's no need to keep waiting and suffering for the president who never returns... right?
Y: But still! dont you like Nagusa-senpai and Hyakkiryouran?
flashback
Nagusa: Renge is a wonderful girl, full of energy, unlike this half-baked one. I'm proud. You think so too Yukari?
Y: Yeah!
Kikyou: can you believe it, Yukari said Renge is better than Nagusa senpai
Y: ...!
R: Stop it its embarassing
happy times
R: Who cares! We were abandoned. The past is the past. Nagusa-senpai is gone!

Desuwa Archive 9.3

R: besides, She was trying to return [that thing] and yet you...
Y: But... I know times are tough... Yet if Nagusa-senpai returns and we can all gather together again...
If I can win the 'Succession Battle'... if I can make Nagusa-senpai understand my feelings... >then, once more, we can relive those days...!
Surely... just like that time... we can smile again...
R: You has always been like this, huh? If you believes in something, you will push forward with relentless determination.
Always brimming with confidence... believing you can do anything if you sets your mind to it.
someone who never bends.
No words are enough, you won't be satisfied unless you confront head-on
Well, if it's come to this, I'll have to make you understand by force. klack
ARE YOU PREPARED?
battle start*

Desuwa Archive 9.4

nightfalls
yukari is defeated and tumbled
(yukari are you okay?) run towards and catch her with your arms
R: you understand now? im not coming back.
We, Hyakkaryouran, cannot go back to the old days
Dont get me wrong Yukari.
You are different than us, you dont need the Hyakkaryouran, you already have a place to go back to.
Y: .....!
R: oh fuck thats too far
(She came here beliving Renge-senpai would help her)
(Could you just please listen to her a bit more?)
R: no, theres nothing more left to say.
Yukari, a bit of advice as your senpai
Dont waste your youth
Stop holding onto the past, its a waste of time.

M: Renge-chan wait!
K: what do we do now? sob
T: Sensei, we will catch up with her

Y: well maybe Renge-senpai needs more time

A: We have more people than ever now. You better give up
N: nom nom
A: any last words?
N: nom
Mobs: Leader! this hyakkaryouran making fun of us!
N: like i said, im not hyakkaryouran anymore

A: enough, get her!
(wait!)
bang bang bang
Nagusa btfo the gang, again
A: hunt her down! overwhelm her!
(on your right!)
N: !
A: oh i get it, she has trouble reacting to that side.
(A rocket hits Nagusa on the right)
A: uwah, i cant see
Nagusa ended up beside you
(lets retreat from here)
N: who?
(you pull/carry her away from the chaos)
(i think we are good here, are you ok?)
N: who are you? Wait, Sensei of Schale
i wish you didnt have to do that
(is your right arm injured?)
N: you could tell, from just observing?
(I'm sorry if i said something you didnt want to hear)(Its okay if you dont want to tell)
N: then, what does Sensei need of me? Or rather you have businesses here?
(Could you be...a Hyakkaryouran?)
N: yes, like you said. Well, was.
(yes i know about the dissolution order)
N: Dissolution order? Oh.. right
Since i was trying to return (that). I left for the streets and came back now to see the festival.
Well thank you for helping me. Well then...
(Its late already, guess ill go home)
walk away*
N: ??? Hey wait up
Nagusa follows you in awkward silience
N: so, you knew about everything now
(are you worried?)
N: yes, its been a while since i left?
(fills her in on everything happened)
N: Succession battle?? Why did you have to go that far... No im not in position to say that.
(I think Yukari could stand to see the state of things)
N: thats true...
N: This is enough, thank you for escorting me sensei.
(do you have any intention of coming back?)

Nagusa: Waiting until my guard is down to ask that.
You're tougher than you seem.
...Sorry, but I can't go back.
(because its already gone?)
N: Yes
On that day, I tried to return (that) ... that's why, they will never forgive me.
To go back to the Hyakkaryouran now... I don't have the courage for that.
I'm not that strong.
I'm not qualified... not anymore.
I'm not 'her'...
I don't want to disappoint everyone who's left...
The reason I can't go back is just that... so...

"L̷̬͍͎̉Į̴̮̾E̵̳̒͗̓S̵̪̆͑̚

(???)
N: well then, ill see you. leaves
(maybe i shouldnt have asked that on our first met)
(next time ill ask for her name)

the next day
Y: Sense~i Good day to you
(Good morning how are you feeling)
Y: as great as ever. Today we are meeting Kikyou-senpai!
(whats she like)
Y: as expected of sensei, always researching in advance
If I were to describe Kikyo-senpai in one word... she's very rational, logical... and yet, practical!
flashback
Kikyou: I told you, only 1 ice cream a day!
Y: b-but...
K: No but! Also, eating before sleep is bad for your body!
Are you brushing your teeth properly?
Y: of course!
Y: im a bit tired today, so i thought some mouthwash would be fine...
K: thats it im checking on your teeth everyday too
Y: WHAT?
flashback ends
Y: she was like that
(I can see you place great trust in her)
Y: exactly, lets go!
Arriving at Hyakkaryouran Medication Room
Y: We're coming in!
Kikyou, along with Shizuko was there
Shizuko: S-Sensei???
(Shizuko? What business brings you here?)
Kikyou: Yukari?
Y: senpai!
K: its been a while. You are energetic as ever. Bad timing though. Or rather, fateful
(what are you two discussing?)
S: I'm preparing for the revival of the Lantern- OH you already know, and you are rooting for me??
S: ehehe Just hearing that from Sensei makes Shizuko all...~
I mean, yes, and im at Hyakkaryouran to ask for help from the Kadenokouji clan.
We want the shrine maiden of Kadenokouji clan. to perform at the finale.
Y: ...! um...
S: Even though i contacted directly, i did not get a reply, so i came here.
K: thats what this is, Kadenokouji Yukari
S: eh, the one next to sensei is her? What a great coincidence.
Y: Um...I... I'm sorry. President of the Festival Management Committee. I cannot help you.
S: Eh? Why?
Y: I want to remain a part of the Hyakkaryouran.
For that reason, I wish to receive support from Kikyo-senpai.
K: ?
Y: I would like to challenge Nagusa-senpai to a "Succession battle"

Desuwa Archive 12.2

Yukari explains her whole plan as previously told
Y: Senpai! Please be the witness to the battle.
K: i see, thats how it is. I imagined you would storm in when the news hits but i wouldnt thoguht you would result to that...
K: to put it simply. I refuse.
S: eh? w-why?
(eh?)
Y: Why senpai? I thought you understand
K: You thought i would agree? Are you a bit over your head right now?
I have heard what happened with Nagusa, and from the Yin-yang club, But the answer remain the same
She is not coming back.
Well she did indeed came back, to this very room, but it is to return the "Proof" she received from president Ayame. And left quickly. You can imagine my anger.
(renge mentioned the same thing...)
K: nevertherless, suppose we carry out this Succession Battle. Yukari. Do you actually think you could beat Nagusa? She is much stronger than you
Y: I...I would win! I'm a Hyakkaryouran elite.
K: Can you even beat me?
Y: You wont know until you try... I understand, let me prove it to you, right here right now.
K: Very well. if you say so, i wake you up from your dream. Come on, challenge me to this "succession battle" of yours.
S: uwah, maybe i came in a terrible time
battle starts
Yukari jobs
to be continued

(Yukari!)
Yukari: im okay!
Shizuko: enough you two!
Kikyou: So this is how the Succession Battle ends. You understand it now, the reality of it?
You wouldnt win, not in this millenia
It was nothing but selfish self-righteous game to you
Y: B-but I. I just want us to be together again...
K: Huh? Dont make me laugh. You cant even beat me.
K: im different from Renge, so i wont beat around the bush
Do you really think we want to reunite, even if you defeat Nagusa?
Y: ...
K: See? you couldnt even answer.
Joining the Hyakkaryouran was just a pastime until you take over the heir of your clan, right?
(Kikyou!) (That's too far)
K: Sensei of Schale, a question
Did this little princess come and tell you everything and ask you for help?
Shes the heir of the Kadenokouji Clan, as such, she has her duties she must fulfill within.
yet she wanted all of this to continue like her pasttime out of selfishness
Did she ever tell you about how she was doing within the family? Of course not
because this was all for fun
you still have a place to return to, unlike us. You were different.
I wish i could also be energetic and dreamy like her. But honestly
it makes me sick.
please, is it about time you wake up? Quit playing that little game of yours
This Hyakkaryouran game, is done.
Y: Kikyou-senpai, has it always been like this
K: yes, real annoying you see? I'm glad you finally realized.
Y: i already know... From the beginning... there was no chance of me winning...
Y: still, I wanted to go back
I thought i could get back the peaceful days spent with everyone...
But Renge-senpai and Kikyo-senpai...
And the Hyakkaryouran
its over... we can't go back to those days...
I just miss the time spent with everyone so much...!
Sensei, I'm sorry for causing you trouble. bwehh run away
(Yukari! wait!)

Desuwa Archive 13.2

K: Its finally over, Why did it have to turn out this way.
From the moment Nagusa-senpai tried to return the 'Proof', it was clear this would happen.
This is the end of the Hyakkaryouran
Then, isn't it only right to end things before they're completely ruined...?
Before the girl who admired Nagusa-senpai more than anyone gets hurt any further
While there's still a place for her to return to, before the wounds get too deep...
yeah, this is for the best.
(You are wrong, Kikyou)
(That is not for you, or anyone to decide)
(Yukari really loved the Hyakkaryouran)
(Her fellings are her own)
K: What right would an outsider like you have to say?
Shizuko: Maybe its not for me to say but
K: even you?
S: Where one belongs is for one to decide (cuts of Pina)
Just because you have concerns for one, does it not mean you should impose your will onto them.
at least you should have listened what she had to say before discussing it
(Yukari knew herself the chance of winning were slim)
(Even then, she wanted to see everyone)
K: now that you mentioned it, what been said is said, its my fault
(You didnt really mean it when you said its all a game didnt you?)
(If its just a pretense out of consideration, it will only hurt you both)
S: sensei, please go find Yukari
(yeah yeah im going)
Kikyou came back inside
K: What am i suppose to do now...
calls Renge:
K: yo its me
back at the festival*
A: Ahh im sicking of getting beaten
Arata and gang contemplating giving up and enjoy the festival as normal
A: we cant give up, we are the Mouryous who make even crying children laugh!
A: Anyhow, I'm so frustrated rn i cant even sleep properly
??: Oh my, this is quite troubling
Mesugaki: To see someone shrouded in sadness on such a joyous festival day...Yes, I am deeply saddened.
Mesugaki: hehehe, you look so desperate you would be happy even if a cat show up
let be help you
end of first half
