Yashiro listened intently to his aunt as she shared her shorter stories from her days as a ninja. Much of it consisted of how the woman had many teammates; at a certain point, one of the teammates who'd help her train had perished alongside the sensei. The specifics of how these two individuals died, aunt Hotaru did not specify to her nephew. However, the story continued as his aunt mentioned the many memories she's shared with them all. A girl named Chisa and his grandfather from his aunt's side served as the replacements for the aforementioned individuals in the team; an interesting topic to Yashiro was definitely the fact that his aunt met her husband from her squad.

After learning about the death of his uncle at a certain point as well, and the rest the team, Yashiro felt saddened inside due to this. A student went under Hotaru's wrong as well, a boy by the name of Alwin Nara. Aunt Hotaru trained the boy to eventually unlock the eight gates, but even then in a war many years later Alwin died as well. That hurt the boy deeply, he felt bad for his aunt, but at the same time he was happy that these events shaped her to the woman she is now. ''"All that suffering, just be alive here today?" ''Yashiro thought to himself as the sorrow kind of built up inside.

Aunt Hotaru basically expressed her hopes for young Yashiro for the day he gets his own team and goes on missions; the boy smiled gently as he replied back to his aunt, "Yeah. I hope all goes well when that day comes as well." Afterwards, when Yashiro finished his food he got up and said to both Masami and Hotaru that he would be back. He then went for a walk by the lake.
