November 6th, AD 2095 / Yotsuba Main House - Reception Room

A rather large building done in the style of a traditional samurai residence.

That is the impression of the Yotsuba Main House as seen from outside the gate.

Compared to a typical residence it is certainly spacious. Even calling it a mansion would not be a misnomer.

However, someone who had seen the grand mansions of those like the Saegusa Family and Ichijou Family would probably be rather surprised by its simple snug appearance.

The Yotsuba do not care about the spaciousness of their house. Because the Yotsuba Family, who maintain a systematic policy of secrecy, would never invite a large number of outsiders as guests. Perhaps they think a grand mansion would only be an encumbrance.

Without regard to the fact that her mother's home, Miyuki mused over the matter from an outsider’s perspective, as she and her brother stepped through the massively built gate together.

It had been one week since that day — the day that would come to be known in the future as ‘The Scorched Halloween'.

The siblings had brought themselves to a mountain village not recorded on any map by foot, in accordance to their aunt’s invitation — which should rather be called a summons to appear before her.

Despite what might be imagined from its outward appearance, they were ushered into a modern and quite expansive reception room where they were informed to wait. This was not a small reception room used for privacy; it was a large room that could be classified as an ‘Audience Chamber’ which let them know that today’s summons was not a personal one from their aunt, but from the Master of Yotsuba Family.

—Well, we had discerned that from the beginning, thought Miyuki, nevertheless.

This would make it three years since she had last been summoned to this room together with her brother.

Although Miyuki was present and accounted for, her aunt, who until now for one pretext or another did not try meeting her brother except in occasions when the entire family gathered together for celebrations or congratulations, had after three years met him face to face.

Of course, Miyuki could not determine whether that was a good thing or a bad thing.

"—Don’t worry. We are not the same as three years ago."

Her uneasiness had apparently shown on her face. Miyuki tilted her eyes upward to find Tatsuya nodding reassuringly in her line of sight as she peeked at him.

Next to the sofa Miyuki was sitting on, he remained standing.

Three years ago, he also took the same posture.

Three years ago, he stood behind Miyuki.

Yes....things were different from three years ago.

Tatsuya was probably talking about how their abilities had changed from three years ago. Unquestionably, the two of them had gotten stronger that they could not be compared to three years ago. Especially in regards to Tatsuya, he had attained combat power that rivaled that of their aunt, Yotsuba Maya, famed as one of the world’s strongest magicians, known as "The Maou of the Far East" and "The Queen of Night". If you examine their magic affinities in detail, it would be readily apparent that in a one on one confrontation Tatsuya would win.

However, more than their power relationship with their aunt, there were things that changed from three years past, Miyuki thought.

—That was the relationship between her brother and herself.

—Her own heart, and the feelings it directed towards her brother.

The mind of Miyuki who was sitting on the sofa with a perfectly corrected posture drifted to that time three years ago...
