"Mr. Fujimori," Seishi Yodogawa said. "How long have you been out here for?" "An hour, I guess," Ayumu Fujimori replied, shrugging his shoulders. "Mr. Fujimori, it's getting late! You and Mr. Hanase should be in bed!" "Seishi, we've been stuck up here for three days... we don't have to follow anymore rules." "This is ridiculous! You're going to roll off of the cloud if you fall asleep here!" "No, no.. Cherry Barister made me some coffee..." "Mr. Hanase, do you have a say in this?" "Yodogawa-kun," Shouma Hanase sighed. "Just give me and Fujimori-kun a few more minutes?" "Sigh.... fine." Seishi gave up and left, but Eijiro Mamori walked outside.

"Sir Shouma!" Eijiro shouted. "What are you still doing here?! You and Ayumu should be in bed!" "Oh boy," Ayumu and Shouma sighed. Back inside the castle, Marin Mizuta was trying to cheer up Myoko Oniyanagi. "Myoko-chan, you shouldn't let those feelings get to you! There's always a bright new day, poka poka~ ( ᐛ )و" Marin said. "You poor, innocent soul," Myoko mumbled. "..You don't understand the true feelings of a yokai." "What was that, Myoko-chan?" "N-Nothing!" "Well, Big Sis probably doesn't understand your true feelings... but I am rooting for you!" Myoko was starting to feel better. Marin's bubbly personality was the cure she needed!

Kasumi Izumo and Misuzu Aisaka were sitting in their room, finishing the scene for the summoning. "We are ready," Misuzu said. "You may begin, Kasumi." "Thanks, Suzu!" Kasumi exclaimed before clearing her throat. After saying the magical words... BOOM! The pentagram's magic burst out of the ground, and a figure appeared before them. "It is nice to see you two again," the demon said, smiling. "Welcome back, Grath," Kasumi said, smiling back. Grath was a nice demon that Kasumi had met two years ago, and they became good friends. "What has happened to your home?" Grath asked, looking around. "All I see are stone walls, torches, small dressers, a medium-sized wardrobe, and two simple beds!" "We're not home, Grath," Misuzu sighed. "..Ah. I should have expected that. Why are you not home?" "Three words. Beanstalk. Cut. Down," Kasumi groaned. "B-Beanstalk?" "Himiko grew one by accident." "Himiko Yumeno?" "Yup, that girl."

While everyone was doing their own thing, Chie Saizaki and Seisuke Tomoyasu were sitting in the dining room. "Chie," Seisuke said. "I know you miss home. We all do... but for now, you have to learn to adapt." "I am," Chie replied softly. "It's just... hard. What if the giant finds us? I've been hearing rumors of him for days!" "You've nothing to worry about, Chie-san." "Are you sure..?" "I know for sure." Chie smiled at Seisuke, glad that he understood how she felt. "Before we go to bed, there was one thing I wanted to ask you," she said. "What is it?" Seisuke asked. "...Do you hear footsteps in the distance?" "Oh, I- Wait, what?' That's when Seisuke realized that the giant was awake. "Crap,,,"
