Beings exist that that are two, and yet one. Being that can be called an inseparable pair. Fujin and Raijin, Red Oni and Blue Oni.

And, komainu -- Agyou and Ungyou.

YOUNG KOMAINU: Grandpa... I'm going to do my best.

YOUNG KOMAINU: I'm going to find a new partner, find a place of my own to protect -- and become a splendid komainu just like you.

YOUNG KOMAINU: So... So! Please-- watch over me...?

Tears welled in his eyes as his thoughts drifted back. The one that raised him and loved him -- Ungyou. With the passing of time, he had returned to the land and would now protect everyone as a formless spirit. Filling Agyou's chest, the survivor to the late Ungyou, was respect for his grandfather, and pride in his role as a komainu. And... several worries.

YOUNG KOMAINU: No, no, no! I'm a strong komainu! If I sat around moping like this, Grandpa would scold me.


YOUNG KOMAINU: Right! First things first, I need to find a partner! If two pillars aren't together, you can't call it a proper komainu!


YOUNG KOMAINU: .................


YOUNG KOMAINU: ......Someone to replace Grandpa, huh...?


YOUNG KOMAINU: Eh, what was that? A voice? Is someone there?!


YOUNG KOMAINU: What? Would I go anywhere to find a partner? Aah! Of course I would, isn't that obvious?!


YOUNG KOMAINU: Wait, w-what is this?! This light -- W-wait a moment!


YOUNG KOMAINU: WAAAAAHH!!


YOUNG KOMAINU: Grandpa...! Protect me...!

[Chapter 1: Oriental New Year]

1 option
...It's already the third day of the new year, huh.

Player looked at the clock, and realized it was now past noon. Standing slowly, they headed outside to the corridor. The chill winter air of the New Year's season hit their skin.

1 option
Yesterday was, er...

Gradually, the memories of yesterday came back to them. Going to the shrine with everyone, drawing new year's fortunes-- Eating Chouji's osenshi and ozoni, playing a board game with everyone, exchanging new year's gifts--

2 options <same response>
Then, finally getting back home exhausted, and crashing. That was a rough 2 days...

During this season, many of the academy's students return home, or go out to party. The usual noisy atmosphere of the dorms is replaced with dead silence.

--Sei! Toh! Hah!

But listening carefully, an energetic voice can be heard from outside.

"Oh, if it isn't Player-dono?"

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

I wish you a happy New Year. I'm counting on you this year, too.

2 options <same response>
Happy New Year. It's a new Moritaka this year.
Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Haha, it's our first meeting since the start of the year. Anyway, yesterday was really lively.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

I received several mails from Ryouta-dono. It seems everyone had a fun and exciting start to the year.

3 options
I wish you could've come too. It was a lot of fun. Well, mostly. There was a bit of a pandemonium at that one part...


Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

Pandemonium...?! W-what in the world happened?

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

Every year, I go to a purification ceremony on New Year's Day. I leave the New Year greeting for later.

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

However, I won't lie. I did feel a little lonely not joining everyone for the New Years party...

Moritaka expression new years anger.png

The whole year's plans should be made on New Year's Day.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

Also, to avoid being busy like this, spending time with Player-dono and the others--

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

And giving New Year greetings. There's a special feeling to that as well.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

That's right -- if you have some free time, could you please accompany me for a short time?

Shrine

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Oh my, as I thought, there's a lot of people here for their first shrine visit of the New Year. It looks somewhat less crowded than other spots, though--

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

Player-dono, are you tired?

3 options
Thanks. You're always so thoughtful, Moritaka. This is nothing. What about you? Don't get lost now.
Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

No, if I can't at least do this much, I couldn't call myself a true samurai.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

As expected of Player-dono. It wasn't neccessary to be worried.

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

Hmm...! Do you think me so unreliable...?

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Well, waiting in line can be a good time too, with a good friend for company.

3 options
By the way, what are those clothes you're wearing? They look good on you. They look like a children's festival outfit.


Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Haha... thank you for your kind words. I only wear them occasionally. They are a bit tight, though.

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

C-c-children's festival?! They look so undignified?!

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

I received this hakama from my master. Like my uniform -- it was a hand-me-down.

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

I don't wear finery too often. They can work as substitutes for my school uniform, but...

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

I'll pray to god -- to one day become a splendid samurai worthy of these clothes.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

We're advancing in the line, little by little. Now now, give me your hand so we don't get separated.

The line for the shrine visit moved steadily forward -- and eventually, two komainu statues could be seen at either side.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

That shrines have komainu statues doesn't seem to change, whether in Shinjuku or Wa No Kuni.

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Although, the shrines in Wa No Kuni typically had a guardian spirit.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

The komainu here in Shinjuku seem to be just statues--

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Ah, it seems it's our turn at last, Player-dono. Now now, let's go ahead.

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

After bowing twice, clapping twice, and bowing once, let's chant our wishes in our hearts.

3 options
I wish for everyone to stay safe. I wish for the guild's protection. I wish to return home someday.
2 options
And, I wish to make new friends this year. And, I wish to meet someone new.

MORITAKA: Wha... i-is this light?! Player-dono! Player-donoo!!

There was a sudden flash of light--

An unusual sound reached the two's ears as they had closed their eyes for the wish.


Boing, boing, boing~

The sound was soft and elastic, like a bouncing ball. Player and Moritaka watched, speechless as the scene unfolded before their eyes.

MYSTERIOUS BALL OF FUR: Owowowow... Damnit, what was that light...?

There were two large, spherical objexts. One of them a ball, which bounced and rolled away, deeper into the shrine. And the other--


MYSTERIOUS BALL OF FUR: Aah! M-my ball! Waaait! Don't roll awaaay!

Agyou expression blank.png

......

The ball of fluff stood up, revealing itself to be a young beastman covered in fluffy fur. He checked his surroundings, found his ball in mid-escape, and bolted off to chase it.

--While floating in midair.

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

--Hah!

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

I was caught off guard and spaced out, but... what was that light?!

Moritaka expression new years anger.png

Also, that boy just suddenly appeared--!

2 options
Let's follow him! A new fluffy to pet!


Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

Is now really the time?!

The pair hurriedly weaved their way through the crowded shrine, chasing after the boy that appeared from that light. He had finally caught up to his escaped ball, grabbed it, and nimbly climbed up, balancing himself on it with ease.

Agyou expression crying.png

Pant... pant... Phew. Thank goodness. It would be really bad if I lost my ball.

Finally collecting himself, he turned and noticed Player and Moritaka.

Agyou expression blank.png

--!

Agyou expression shocked.png

W-who are you?! Staring at me so intently...!

Agyou expression serious.png

I -- No, I mean, do you have some business with me?! Well?!

1 option
A lost kid? Where did you come from?
Agyou expression anger.png

A-a-a-are you an idiot?! I'm not some lost kid!

Agyou expression blank.png

...Hm? Wait, that voice... your voice!

Agyou expression shocked.png

I see! You're the one who brought me here, right?! In other words, abduction! Abduction! I've been abducted!

Agyou expression crying.png

Return me to my home immediately! Return me, I demand it! Bark, barkbark!

1 option
Even if I knew how to do that...! I don't remember doing anything...!

Riding his ball closer the strange boy glared, now face to face with Player.

Agyou expression serious.png

No, it's definitely you! My ears are never wrong!

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

This is bad, Player-dono! He's too worked up and won't listen to us.

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

--Continuing like this will just worsen the situation. We can't get anywhere until he calms down.

Agyou expression serious.png

You really insist on playing dumb...! All riiight! In that case, I won't forgive you!

Agyou expression serious.png

I'll make you surrender by force, and then you'll send me back to my original world! So don't come crying to me!

1 option
Eh, a Hallowed Artifact? He's a summon?! I had a feeling it would come to this!
Moritaka expression new years anger.png

Stand back, Player-dono! As I thought, he is a summon!

Moritaka expression new years anger.png

In this case, all we can do is make him calm down and listen to reason! Inuzuka Shino Moritaka, will be your opponent!

Agyou expression serious.png

Hehee! My power won't lose to some samurai!

Water began to dance elegantly around Agyou, as three balls spiralled in the air surrounding him.

Agyou:(4 star icon face)
Cleansing the evil inside villain's souls -- I'll show you the power of a komainu!

Shinjuku Central Park Shrine

Moritaka expression new years anger.png

--This is the final blow!!

Agyou expression crying.png

W-what, ganging up on me, cheaters...! Uuu...

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

I did my best to hold back. Could you please calm down a little, Komainu summon-dono?

Agyou expression crying.png

Why do you keep calling me Summon? I have a name y'know! It's Agyou!

Agyou expression serious.png

I'm an honorable, ancient komainu! Agh, just when I determined to find a new partner...!

Agyou expression embarrassed.png

And yet...*sniff* uuu...!

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

A-Agyou-dono! Please, just calm down and take a deep breath. Yes, just a calming, deep breath...!

Agyou expression crying.png

Bark! No no no! Where am I? I want to go home already!

Agyou expression crying.png

I want to go back to Wa No Kuni! Grandpa Ungyouuu! *Sniffle*

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

Aah! A cry that won't lose to Cusith-dono! It's no good, he's still not listening to us!

1 option
What should we do, Moritaka?
Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

D-don't look at me... It seems you don't have any ideas either though.

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

Like this, even if we could help him he's not going to cooperate.

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

Earlier, he said he came from the same world as I. Wa No Kuni. I can smell its familiar scent on him.

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

I can't help but want to lend a hand to a fellow dweller of my world, though...

Agyou expression blank.png

Wa No Kuni...?! What did you say just now?! You came from the same place as me?!

Agyou expression blank.png

Now that you mention it, yes... this smell, this feeling, is definitely Wa No Kuni...!

Agyou expression cheerful.png

That means, you know the way back, right?! Tell me, tell me!

Moritaka expression new years anger.png

I'm afraid you are the only one who knows the answer to that, Agyou-dono.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

Summoning occurs when the wishes of two people match, and a bond is formed. At least, that's what I have been told.

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

If Agyou-dono is really from Wa No Kuni, you must have some idea, correct?

Agyou expression sad.png

How should I know... I don't remember answering to any "summon" thing.

Agyou expression neutral.png

Wait, no... Could it be, that "would you go anywhere... to find a partner" ?

Agyou expression sad.png

U-uhm...

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Oh, it seems you have an idea! Did you answer to a summoning after all?

Agyou expression serious.png

If that's the case, I can't think of anyone who could've summoned me but... *glare*

3 options
I-I'm under suspicion... I'd like you to prove that, please. If you let me cuddle your fluffy fur, it may jog my memory.
Agyou expression neutral.png

No matter how much I think about it, you're the most suspicious one here!

Agyou expression neutral.png

How am I supposed to prove that? I guess it's no good then...

Agyou expression crying.png

You!! Someone is seriously worried and you make jokes! That's no good!

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

That is a problem then, if you don't who summoned you...

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

The remaining way is -- to grant Agyou-dono's wish.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

Agyou-dono, do you have any sort of strong wish? The first thing that comes to your mind--

Agyou expression cheerful.png

If that's the case, there is only one! I have but one wish!

Agyou expression neutral.png

It's -- Finding a lifelong komainu partner, becoming friends, and protecting a splendid shrine together!

Agyou expression cheerful.png

I can think of no other wish but that, it's a stroooong wish!

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

That makes things much simpler! In that case, a partner for a komainu would be...

Agyou expression neutral.png

A dog, of course! It's gotta be a dog! After all, I'm a lion, as you can see!

Agyou expression neutral.png

A komainu is a set of a dog and a lion. Because of that, my partner has to be a dog!

Agyou expression cheerful.png

But not just any dog will do, it's got to be a strong dog than can protect a shrine properly!

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Hoh, there's a smile at last, Agyou-dono. It seems you're feeling better now.

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

What do you think, Player-dono? We're completely immersed in helping him out now, so...

3 options
Of course, we'd be glad to help. We can't abandon him now... What a pain.
Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

As expected of Player-dono! You can understand his yearning.

Agyou expression crying.png

H-hey, did you just treat me like some kid again?! You did, didn't you?!

Moritaka expression new years sad.png

Now, now, don't say that. Aren't we in too deep already to back out?

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

Now, speaking of a suitable dog to be a komainu, your criteria is that they be a strong fighter, right?

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Then, where should we start searching...?

Agyou expression sad.png

Uuhm...

2 option
I know some good candidates. If some of my dog friends are okay.
Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

As always, your personal network of connections is vast. Then, let's get started immediately!

Agyou expression cheerful.png

Ah, you're nice people after all. I misjudged you at first, but I have a much better opinion now.

Agyou expression neutral.png

I'll introduce myself once more! I am Agyou, the honorable ancient komainu!

Agyou expression cheerful.png

--Although, I am still in training. It's a pleasure to meet you, um...

1 option
Introduce yourself.
Agyou expression cheerful.png

Heeeh, Player huh? Nice to meet you! Let's work together to find a fine komainu candidate!

Moritaka expression new years neutral.png

I am Inuzuka Shino Moritaka, a canine beastman attending Shinjuku Academy.

Agyou expression crying.png

Canine! A Dog?! Big Bro was a dog after all! Komainu! Are you interested in becoming a komainu?!

Moritaka expression new years shocked.png

I-i'm still in training to become a samurai! My apologies, but I can't be Agyou-dono's--

Agyou expression cheerful.png

Ooh, you already have a goal of your own. I understand. I don't want to force anyone.

Agyou expression neutral.png

Finding my komainu partner is important, but it would be shameful to do so by stepping on someone else's dreams.

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Hah... I appreciate your understanding. You're much more reasonable now that you've regained composure.

Agyou expression cheerful.png

All right, let's go meet the komainu candidates!

Moritaka expression new years cheerful.png

Yes!

Thus, the small, incident filled journey of Moritaka, Agyou and Player in search of a komainu partner began.

...........

Salomon-kun expression new year crying.png

Bwaaaah... Milord, you're so meeeaaan! Not even so much as a "I need your help, Salomon-Kun~"?

Salomon-kun expression new year crying.png

I always answer Milord's questions, I was even waiting on standby...

Salomon-kun expression new year neutral.png

In the first place, all Milord had to do was touch him to determine if they were indeed a bonded summoner and summon!

Salomon-kun:(new year angry face)
Jeez! I absolutely, definitely, positively won't tell you now! Nyeeeh!

Salomon-kun expression new year neutral.png

This cute little Salomon-kun is going to lounge on the kotatsu, eat tangerines and dress fancily ALL. BY. MYSELF!!
