**Slave's Sky Dance** is fifty-third chapter of the *Mato Seihei no Slave* manga.

## Summary

As the girls from the 7th, 6th, and 5th Units bath in the hot springs, Saki Tokoyama suddenly gets up and looks around. Sahara Wakasa wonders what is wrong and Kyouka Uzen suspects that she is worried about how quiet Yakumo Ezo has been. Tenka Izumo believes that Yakumo is waiting for them to leave the bath, with Kaiko Itsuki confirming that physical contact is very important for her.

Inside the dorm, Yakumo asks Yuuki Wakura asks if he provides sexual services to Kyouka, which he frantically denies. Yakumo says it would have been interesting if he did. She remarks that girls smell great and are fun to touch, but she is now wondering how men feel. As Yakumo begins to feel him up, Yuuki nervously asks if she has a lover. She replies that she doesn't and, likely, neither does anyone else in the Anti-Demon Corps. Yuuki wonders if she couldn't pick someone aside from him and Yakumo replies that she has always felt sorry for boys since they can't obtain Peach abilities, but she feels comfortable around Yuuki, as if he were a little brother. After Yuuki asks her, Yakumo confirms that she has many little sisters whom she used to "mess around" with, hence why she enjoys touching women's skin. Abruptly, Yakumo senses that the other girls are coming out of the bath and rushes to gaze at their freshly-bathed bodies. Yuuki thinks to himself that Yakumo truly is free like the wind.

Later, Tenka, Yachiho Azuma, and Sahara depart for training with the 10th Unit. Yuuki, in his Slave form, remarks that the Units they train with keep on changing and Yakumo and Kyouka confirm that they must learn to cooperate as the Eight Thunder Gods may start moving in groups. Yakumo announces that she will begin training with Kyouka, but first asks if she can lend Yuuki to her. Annoyed, Kyouka asks if she heard about lending from Ren Yamashiro, but Yakumo says that everyone will know about it soon anyway. Kyouka argues that she shouldn't lend Yuuki out to other Units since she may need him at a crucial moment, but Yakumo reminds her that the Units will be cooperating more from now on. Kyouka informs Yakumo that she will have to give Yuuki a Slave reward, but Yakumo is fine with it and hopes that his form with her will include a special ability. Reluctantly, Kyouka agrees to lend him. Yakumo gets on top of Yuuki, grabs his chain, and he transforms into the winged Slave: Phoenix form. As the two take off to try it out, Kyouka reminds Yakumo that she is only lending him to her and Yakumo affirms that she will not steal him.

The two fly through the air and are initially excited, but Yakumo observes that she can already flying using her wind ability. Taking her power into account, Yuuki begins to fly faster, which impresses Yakumo. She activates her ability and uses her Night Storm technique to make him fly even faster. Yakumo ecstatically cries out that his speed is even greater than hers. The two then discover a small group of Shuuki. Yuuki flies down and obliterates them with one blow. The two continue to fly and test out the form.

Later, the two have landed and Yuuki has reverted back to his human form, though he is exhausted. He considers that the form's endurance and strength are low so handling it is difficult. Suddenly, the Slave reward begins to take affect and Yakumo removes her jacket. She then begins to remove her shirt and lewdly states that she wonders how boys feel.
