Episode 23 Plot: Aoi dreams her childhood Ayakashi told her to keep living so she could fall in love with him and marry him. Aoi finds she has lost her voice and her sense of taste. Tokihiko realises it is a curse from the sweet Raiju forced her to eat, a cursed seed that blocked Aoi's sense of taste. As she is now unable to adequately cook for the Umi-bouzo Ranmaru gives the job to Mai and Kei. Raiju taunts Aoi for losing her usefulness as a chef. He tries food she made and insults its flavour, despite greedily finishing the whole plate. As he threatens to eat her Giniji arrives and stops him, despite Raiju's threats to sabotage the ceremony. Byakuya suddenly arrives, warning Raiju that Aoi legally belongs to Odanna. Raiju, who is terrified of Byakuya, flees. Byakuya brings the royal couple, Nuinoin and Ritsuko, to Orio-ya as they own a genuine Hourai Gem Branch they are willing to give to Orio-ya in return for Aoi and Ginji's freedom. Nuinoin reveals their branch is inside a magical painting regrowing into a tree atop a mountain. Ranmaru and Ginji argue over how to retrieve it as entering the painting consumes massive amounts of spirit energy. Byakuya suggests they take Aoi so her food can continually recharge their energy. He gives Aoi a medicine made by Shizuna that successfully returns her voice but not her taste. Byakuya warns them all to avoid the fog inside the painting as it can cause their hidden desires to appear as illusions. He then unlocks the painting with a magic key.
