Staring off into the distance, her typical smile gone and replaced with a far sterner expression as she remained silent in the moment. Her thoughts on those that had committed the heinous acts, wishing there was more they could do for them, but the current situation was a difficult one. It hurt her to see others suffering for the selfish gains of another, most of the people that paid the price being innocent bystanders. Hearing the swordsman sigh, and Io’s response and acknowledging her nod. Yuki broke her silence. [color=f7941d]“I believe that Shizuyama has a real chance, especially if we are able to unite more Yokai with the people of this land, that is something that the enemy will lack, and its our strength to work together that will overcome the narrow-mindedness of the foe, we may be fewer in number, but we are not fewer in determination or will power” [/color]Pausing for a brief moment as she turned her gaze from the swordsman to the lich. A small smile reappearing as a thought crossed her mind that she wanted to get out [color=f7941d]“besides, even if I haven’t had the chance to work with too many of the task members for too long, the ones I have met and worked with are all amazing, and are all really strong, so if you have any doubts, just know that no matter what, not a single one of us will give up”[/color] Her eyes shifting back towards Kazenosuke with a grin on her face. [color=f7941d]“If you ever get scared, you can always run and hide behind me, I’ll protect you for the big bad scary guysssss”[/color] leaning forward with her hands clasped behind her back teasing him a bit as she was starting to feel a bit more like herself again.
