Akuma opened her eyes to find Akashi's staring at her he stood up and looked to his companions "She is indeed the Shadow Devil heir" Esu the Fae stepped from where she stood next to a wagon, Akuma did not remember it being there. Akashi looked at Esu in question "you've been here with her for about two hours, Yuri went to fetch a wagon in fear you might to be too tired to walk." Akuma blinked in surprise "You've never done this to anyone else before?" Akashi shook his head "so i was your test subject then?" Akashi's only response was a smirk "You're one bastard, Akashi". Akashi's smirk still remained. When she realized again who she spoke to, Akuma blushed, bowed and said "i apologize for my filthy mouth, my King". Akashi just shook his head again "you may address me as Akashi, nothing less and nothing more." and with that they all walked to the wagon, to Akuma's home Region.
"so, now that we know who travels with us, what do we do about the impostor?" Akashi turned his head to look at the now asleep Heir "Though i am King, i doubt that the Shadow Devils will trust are word." he rubbed at his chin "What if they did a dual?" Yuri suggested "She would have to win though." "when i was in Akuma's memories, there was this thing that could turn into other people. It attacked her father as his wife and my mother." Esu and Yuri looked at him with concern "what if that's the impostor? She looks exactly like Akuma. That thing killed her father and most likely her mother, what if it never left?". Esu and Yuri looked at each other "What if the impostor has different colored blood? If Akuma could at least land a hit on the impostor, then the Shadow Devils will see what was leading them this past decade." Esu Suggested. Akashi looked over to the still sleeping Akuma and nodded "we will fill her in on this chat when she awakes." Esu and Yuri nodded, they spent the rest of the ride in silence.
