Lord Oroku and the speaker have a conversation about their relationship and the disapproval of Lord Oroku by Miona, the daughter of the deceased Miori. The speaker wants to fill the void left by Miori and is willing to face the consequences. Lord Oroku suggests putting a curse on the speaker, but the speaker wants to handle things on their own. They discuss the importance of protecting each other and apologize to everyone together. The speaker expresses their desire to protect Lord Oroku. Lord Oroku, let me have some spirit fire. You're quite the sinner walking over the servant of a god. Eh, it's fine. Even though I spent so much time cleaning up around here and doing things for you, I still end up miserable. How long are you going to keep ditching work? I've been thinking about finding a job down here, though there aren't many options. Are you going to give up on him just because his daughter didn't approve of you? Despite being cooped up in here all the time, you sure know a lot of gossip. It's only been three years since she lost her mother. I can understand why she doesn't approve of me. Her mother's name was Miori, I believe, and she lived in a house just off the rocks. So you remember her? Indeed. She was a real beauty with a sweet ass. Even though Miori had been banished, she wasn't bitter towards me. And Miona was so cute. She acted like my baby sister. Both of them, either or two, they were the perfect family. They were always smiling. But then, at Miori's funeral, Miona was bawling, and I've never seen her cry like that. It somehow reminded me of when Hikari was younger, and right then, I thought to myself that I wanted to stay beside them. I thought I could maybe fill the hole Miori left behind. Don't you think you're sugarcoating it a bit? This is just forbidden love. Miori was gone, and you wanted to take her place. That's harsh, Lord Oroku. I could put a curse on you if you want. A curse? A curse to make you forget the man you fell for. I don't need you to do that. I can take care of this on my own. She's still such a child. There's only so much you can do on your own. I know, Lord Sea God. We can't hand over the people of the sea to the surface just yet. What the fuck? Well, I hope you enjoyed that. Anyway, you can see me giggling later. The wooden maiden. I did it. Huh. I'm the one who ruined it. Why? Why didn't you get mad at her, Hit? Because it's not like I don't know how she feels. Huh? When my mom died, if some other woman had tried to come into my house, I probably wouldn't have liked it either. Why are you crying? Lord Oroku told me that I always rely on you and Chi and Kaname to protect me. Lord Oroku said that? And I think it's true. Lord Oroku says something useful every now and then. Hit, you're kind. Really kind. You put others before yourself and protect them. Tomorrow, let's go and apologize to everyone together. Yeah. Though I bet they're going to have a lot to say in return. Then they'll have a lot to say to me, too. Huh? I want to protect you from now on, Hit. I will protect you. Monika. Thanks. Thank you.
