It was one of the rare rainy days in the underworld. Many who did not want to get wet were cooped up in their houses waiting for the rain to stop. But in this heavy rain, a girl was running through the forests.
She was a girl who was about the age of 10 or 12 with long black hair and golden eyes. But she was not a human as she had two cat ears and two cat tails.
The girl ran and ran. She didn't know how long she ran but she knew she had to. If she was caught her sister would be in danger. So for her sister's sake, she ran even when she was injured with all the branches.
For hours she kept on running. Even when she was at her limit and barely conscious she kept on running with her sheer will. Finally, she stumbled on a branch and fell down.
" Shirone " the girl muttered weakly as she tried to get up. But her body refused to obey her. The girl could feel her consciousness fading. Before she lost unconsciousness she saw the silhouette of a girl who had long white hair and purple eyes.

When the girl woke up the first thing she saw was an unfamiliar ceiling. Startled the girl tried to get up only to feel a hand holding her shoulder.
"You should lie down for a while. Your body seems to be malnourished and from what I can tell your body is almost on the verge of breaking down. " a calm voice said as the girl turned to look at the person who was holding her down.
It was a girl with silvery white hair and purple eyes that could enchant anyone. She is dressed in an elegant, gothic-inspired black outfit featuring a high-neck lace blouse with flared sleeves, a corset-style waist cincher adorned with chains and buttons, and sleek fitted high-waist pants. Black gloves and a large black flower hairpiece enhance the look, complemented by delicate jewelry like layered necklaces and earrings, creating a sophisticated and striking appearance.
"Hello there My name is Roxanne Morningstar what is your name? " Roxanne said as she looked at the girl with a reassuring smile. Although she had a guess on who this might be she still had to ask.
"Kuroka..My name is Kuroka " the girl said after some hesitation.
"Kuroka huh, that's a very nice name, " Roxanne said as she then handed a cup of porridge to her, "here you should eat this to get some energy for your body "
Looking at the cup Kuroka hesitated. After what happened to her she was extra wary of strangers.
Looking at her hesitant face Roxanne sighed and said, "You don't need to be this wary. If I really wanted to do something I would have captured you when you were unconscious. "
Hearing this little Kuroka thought about it before nodding and taking the cup of porridge from Roxanne's hands. " Thank you "she weakly said before she began to eat it. At first, she took small bites but after a while, she began to eat like crazy. She was really hungry after all.
Looking at Kuroka who was eating like a hungry Roxanne chuckled and said, "Don't be in such a hurry there is more than enough for you "
Kuroko ignored her. Not in fact Kuroko didn't even hear her. Her mind was busy savoring the deliciousness of the porridge.
After a while Kuroko finished eating and let out a satisfied burp before quickly covering her mouth with a blushed face.
" Hahaha "Seeing Kuroka's embarrassed face Roxanne laughed heartily. Kuroko was just too cute.
After laughing for a while Roxanne got up from her seat. " Well can you stand up and follow me " she asked as she looked at Kuroko.
Kuroko nodded as she got up from the bed. With all the food she ate her body got enough nutrients to get up.
" Okay then follow me, there is someone who would like to meet you, " Roxanne said as she left the room
" Hmm " Kuroka nodded as she followed Roxanne. On her way, she observed her surroundings. From what she could see they seemed to be in a small hut near the forest.
" Oh did that little kitten wake up " a woman's voice was heard as Kuroko looked at the person who spoke.
It had the appearance of a young cat but with a total number of seven tails, her fur is colored white with black spots all over her. Looking at her Kuroka immediately realized that this person is a Nekoshou the same species as her.
" Yes big sis Magari she woke up, " Roxanne said to the talking cat in a friendly but respectful way. This is Magari one of Nurarihyon's generals from the Eastern Yokai Faction. She is also Roxanne's Senjustsu and Youjutsu teacher.
Yes, to learn Senjustsu Roxanne went to the Eastern Yokai faction. As for why she wanted to learn Senjustsu and Youjutsu something only Yokai are able to use, well it was becuse why not.
Since she was in another world it would be a waste not to learn something new just becuse of a racial difference. And she also wanted to perfect her martial arts with Senjustsu like how Sairaorg would do in the future.
And it just so happened that her mother had an acquaintance in the eastern Yoakai faction. So with that connection, she managed to convince Magari to teach her.
As for why she and Magari came to the Underworld. Well, it was becuse Roxanne who has full control over the entire underworld happened to witness the destruction of the Nebiros branch household laboratories.
Remembering the plot Roxanne came rushing toward the underworld with Magari. She had three goals to achieve.
One is obviously to protect the Nekoshou sisters. After living in this world for more than 13 years Roxanne knew very much how everything wouldn't go according to the plot. So she had to make sure those two sisters survived this.
Her second goal was to recruit the nekomata to her new organization that she recently created. Since the Nekomata were destined to be killed so Roxanne wanted to save them. After all such valuable soldiers should not be buried in the ground becuse of the stupidity of the devil council.
Her third and last goal was to completely destroy the crystal statues of Super devils that were stored under the Nebiros family. According to Diablo her new servant those crystals statues are not something that should be in the hands of those stupid devils.
