He had heard Kudou used to haunt a house in the human world named Kudou, and thats where she got her name. Kiri had once expelled her, but even though he knew his spiritual energy was terrifying, something didnt seem quite right.

aah, I want to take a little break, Touya-san. Could you let me inside the house? Im only allowed to enter through the kitchens servant door
