Inei's POV. Ubuyashiki Estate.

After years of my long term mission, I decided to go back at the Ubuyashiki Estate, and give my report to Kagaya-sama.

I sensed that no one, except Kagaya-sama and his two children are here.

I greeted them and they let me enter the Master's Chamber.

I bowed to him.

Inei: Kagaya-sama, I have returned from my mission.

Kagaya: Inei, it's been years since I last saw you. How was it?

Inei: I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I failed in my mission.

Kagaya: Failed?

Inei: I failed to protect the family that you entrusted me to protect.

Inei: The Kamado Family........

Inei: I failed to protect them.

Kagaya: ..............

Kagaya: You did not fail, right?

Inei: !?

I looked up to him as he smiled.

Kagaya: I received the report of your crow, and you relayed that you are looking for two people.

Inei: Yes. They are the two remaining members of the Kamado Family.

Kagaya: Then your mission is not yet over, and thus you didn't fail.

Inei: !?

Kagaya: It's alright. You've been tired from your long journey.

Inei: Also, I still have another thing to report.

Kagaya: What is it?

Inei: I encountered Muzan Kibutsuji.

Kagaya: !?

Inei: It is also connected to my mission.

Inei: The culprit of the Kamado Family massacre, was none other than Muzan Kibutsuji.

Kagaya: How did your encounter with Muzan went?

Inei: I almost finished him off........

Inei: But...........

Inei: The Upper Ranks One, Two, and Three interfered.

Inei: I was planning on finishing Muzan even before dawn........

Inei: I already pinpointed his weaknesses.........

Kagaya: But you managed to corner him.

Inei: Yes.

Inei: He didn't had the chance to show his abilities, he neither put up a fight as I was able to take him off guard.
