In the living room of the residence.
"What's going on!?"
The sudden change in Akashiya Moka made Tohru, Shuzen Akua, and Shuzen Kokoa's expressions all change slightly.
Confusion appeared in their eyes.
They then looked towards Lin.
Seeing him holding a woman, they couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Although they were confused and curious,
it wasn't a suitable time to ask questions.
So, they all waited to see what would happen.
With a soft click.
The cross that sealed Akashiya Moka's vampire power actually fell off on its own, floating towards Lin.
To be precise, it flew towards Akasha, who was being held in his arms.
Seeing this, Lin's gaze flickered.
He also stood his ground and watched to see what would happen.
As Akashiya Moka emitted a terrifying yokai power, her pink hair turned silver-white, and her eyes turned red.
The cross flew above Akasha.
A powerful spiritual will surged out of it and entered her body.
The cross then fell onto her.
"Sister Moka!"
On the other side, Shuzen Kokoa saw Akashiya Moka transform into her true vampire form and immediately broke into a happy smile.
Shuzen Akua's gaze flickered slightly.
Her already gentle expression became even gentler.
Evidently, compared to 'Outer Moka',
they all preferred 'Inner Moka'.
Because the Moka they first met was 'Inner Moka'.
Tohru looked at Akashiya Moka's true form with some surprise.
She felt completely different from before.
At the same time,
Lin glanced at Akashiya Moka, then lowered his head to look at Akasha.
About twenty seconds later,
Akasha's eyelashes trembled.
She slowly opened her eyes.
Her emerald-green eyes, as clear as gemstones, were filled with confusion.
Reflected within them was Lin's figure.
Akasha blinked.
Her own memories surfaced in her mind, and clarity returned to her gaze.
"Can you put me down?"
Meeting Lin's gaze, a gentle and sweet smile appeared on her face.
"Alright..."
Lin responded with a smile.
He set Akasha down.
Her fair, jade-like feet touched the floor. Akasha saw that she was only wearing a jacket, and a hint of shyness appeared in her eyes.
Fortunately, the jacket was large enough.
It could cover her upper body and private areas, revealing only a pair of straight, slender legs, with certain regions tantalizingly hinted at.
"Mother?!"
At this, Akashiya Moka looked at the 'resurrected' Akasha, her eyes widening slightly with a hint of joy.
"It's me, Moka."
Akasha looked at Akashiya Moka, smiled gently, and nodded.
"??!!"
Seeing this, Tohru, Shuzen Akua, and Shuzen Kokoa couldn't help but exchange glances, seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes.
The woman Lin was holding was actually Akashiya Moka's mother.
And she wasn't wearing any clothes.
Only Lin's jacket.
So what exactly happened?
Just then, Lin spoke up:
"Moka, take your mother to a room to change. Let her wear a set of your clothes for now."
"Alright."
Akashiya Moka nodded upon hearing this, a smile on her lips. She looked at Akasha with a gentle gaze and said,
"Mother, come with me."
"Mm."
Akasha smiled and nodded, glanced at Tohru, Shuzen Akua, and Shuzen Kokoa, then looked at Lin again.
She then followed Akashiya Moka upstairs.
"..."
Lin watched Akasha's retreating back, his eyes narrowing slightly in thought.
Something was off about Akasha.
The way she looked at him was full of gentleness... and was that affection?
It felt very familiar, just like Outer Moka.
Meanwhile, Akashiya Moka seemed to be in a complete 'Inner Moka' state.
As far as he knew, after Akasha's clone separated, Akashiya Moka's 'outer' and 'inner' personalities were supposed to merge.
Her personality would become a blend of the two.
But right now, there was no sign of a merger.
Moreover, her Codex entry had just been lit up.
Lin began to recall his memories related to Akashiya Moka since they'd met.
Seeing Lin fall into deep thought, Tohru, Shuzen Akua, and Shuzen Kokoa exchanged a look and didn't disturb him.
About a minute later.
"Could it be..."
A guess surfaced in Lin's mind, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
Surprise appeared in his gaze.
He would only know if his guess was the truth after questioning Akasha herself later.
Suppressing the many thoughts in his mind,
Lin looked at Tohru and the others, smiled slightly, and said,
"If you have any questions, just ask."
His words had barely faded.
when Shuzen Kokoa couldn't help but be the first to ask, "Sister Moka, and her mother... what exactly is going on?"
Seeing Shuzen Kokoa ask,
Tohru and Shuzen Akua waited for an answer.
Shuzen Akua, in particular, looked thoughtful, as if she had already formed some guesses.
Lin sat down on the sofa.
He looked at the three curious women and said,
"From what I know, back then, Moka's mother sacrificed herself to become a seal to prevent Alucard from causing chaos.
She entered Alucard's body.
Later, she somehow gave birth to Moka, and Moka inherited her powerful True Ancestor power.
To prevent Moka's True Ancestor power from affecting Alucard's seal, the sealing cross was created.
Now, I have completely killed Alucard, and I rescued Akasha from his body.
This happened just a short while ago.
The pink-haired Moka you saw was actually a clone created by Akasha to seal Moka's power."
"So that's how it is..."
After hearing Lin's explanation, Tohru and the others all showed expressions of understanding.
"Wait..."
Shuzen Kokoa suddenly grasped the key point.
She looked at Lin in disbelief. "What did you just say? You said you killed the True Ancestor Alucard?"
"You're not joking, are you?"
That's the True Ancestor Alucard we're talking about.
The undying True Ancestor, proclaimed invincible in the Yokai Realm.
And Lin said he killed him!
Hey, hey, hey, is that for real?
Although she had guessed Lin was very strong, was he really that terrifying?
"Ask your sister."
Lin just smiled upon hearing this.
"Akua-nee?"
Shuzen Kokoa looked at Shuzen Akua.
"It's true."
Shuzen Akua nodded with a gentle expression.
If Lin said he killed him, then he killed him.
After all, she had witnessed Alucard's clone being killed with her own eyes.
"Whaaat!!!"
Shuzen Kokoa's mouth fell open, and she stared at Lin in utter shock.
It's actually true!
Is Lin a god?
At that moment, she completely gave up the thought of taking Moka back.
Too scary, too scary, she was no match for him.
After learning Lin's 'true strength', Shuzen Kokoa finally understood why he had four partners.
Yes, not three, but four.
During their earlier chat, she had also learned of Yotsuya Miko's existence.
Thinking of the vast gap between herself and Lin, Shuzen Kokoa was suddenly overcome with a sense of helplessness and sorrow.
Sob, my Sister Moka!
We can't be together forever anymore.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing the shocked Shuzen Kokoa's gaze flicker, suddenly filled with a sense of helpless sorrow, Lin couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly.
Tohru and Shuzen Akua also looked at her with some confusion.
"N-nothing. I'm fine."
Shuzen Kokoa snapped back to reality, quickly suppressing her emotions and shaking her head.
Lin gave her a meaningful look.
Shuzen Kokoa guiltily averted her gaze.
While chatting idly with Tohru and the other two as they waited, Lin also summoned the Codex of All Things to check the newly lit-up entry.
