After leaving the village, Izumi and Shigaraki headed through a forest, as their destination were to Tarakudo's Palace.

They stopped at a stream for fish when Izumi spotted certain fish.

"Ah, salmonrooms! Fish with mushrooms for tails, they make a great summer-autumn meal." She caught some to prepare.

She also smiled as she prepared it with onion spice.

"Although I can't use much."

"Eh?" Shigaraki said from his sitting position.

"You don't know? Onis hate onions, some people would sleep with one under their pillows so they dont attack at night." Izumi explained.

Shigaraki rolled his eyes.

Then he heard something.

It set him on edge as he saw a white wolf with purple markings as it growled.

It looked familiar to Izumi, but she realized him.

She quickly bowed to show respect to the towering wolf.

"Great Battlewolf Guinness. It is an honor."

The wolf looked surprised as it changed form.

He was now a youth, looking no older than Shigaraki.

"While I appreciate the respect, what are you doing in my forest?"

"The Shadowkhan are on the move, and we defeated one of Tarakudo's Generals. Orenji." Izumi explained. "We need to defeat him if we are to return home."

"You defeated Orenji?" Guinness asked surprised.

"Shigaraki actually, he destroyed him." Izumi looked at Shigaraki who looked tense.

"I can tell. He has the strength to back it up. And you are clearly a powerful mage."

Meanwhile,

Tarakudo received news about Orenji.

"Who was responsible for this?" He asked his second in command, Ikazuki.

"We were told it was a male with pale blue hair, and a woman with bright green hair. The woman has powerful magic and the male destroyed Orenji just be touching him."

"Find these humans, and bring them to me."

"Yes, Lord Tarakudo."
