August 12th, the wind is calm.
The air is clear as if washed, with strands of clouds so beautifully white, as if sketched with a brush. The two ladies got up early to the town to supervise the aftermath of the ancient temple restoration. After Fujiwara Reya got up, he sent Dark Crow a message, instructing him to have his men keep an eye on the woman named Shizuka, then practiced shoemaking with the guidance from a shoemaking textbook as usual.
The sunlight made the beach shine brilliantly, a few crows came visiting, starting their noisy morning activities in the courtyard. In the morning light, their jet-black feathers didn't look menacing, seeming rather like well-worn simple Buddhist tools.
"Ah~ Morning, senpai."
Kasahara Asuka, with her long hair down, yawned and walked over, wearing short-sleeved pajamas.
The sunlight sparkled in her orange hair, making her already fair skin appear even more transparent and delicate.
"Hungry?" Fujiwara Reya looked up and asked.
