Chapitre 88: Just The Two Of Us
Inside Lu's realm, which was also inside Tenshukaku, a tea gathering was once again occurring.
Though this time was most unusual... much more unusual than the previous one.
Bizarre to the point that there are only two people in such a meeting right now. The reason being was what happened before.
"I'm glad that you still have time to see me, Orihime. It has been a while hasn't it?" The cheeky Lu asked.
"Don't even start. I'm not here to play any of your games." Kitsune mad, Kitsune snorted.
"Awww~. Here I thought we can have fun like we used to." He grinned.
"Don't emit such possible misunderstandings. If your wives are here- Wait... Where are the twins anyway?" She narrowed her eyes.
Being the one who taught them a lesson, it would be her responsibility if they misbehave now.
"In the kitchen." He stated.
"The WHAT?!!!" The mature lady easily lost her cool.
"The kitchen. You know? The place where you cook like an actual woman." His calm look and usual smile was doubly irritating to the lady.
"I know what a kitchen is, Lu... I am asking why they are permitted there, again! And whatever do you mean by that last bit, huh?!" She exclaimed.
There are some house rules in their group. One of them is the fact that only the annoying tengu can make the mature kitsune a ticking bomb. That wasn't a house rule?... His attitude makes it seem like one.
"Both of them begged me for it. They said they wanted to make up for their recent blunder. I was moved to tears, so I accepted." Lu said while removing his invisible tears.
"What if they make the same mistake again? Do you not care for your own life?" Orihime wryly questioned.
"We're humans- people, Orihime. It's impossible for us to make no mistakes. Haven't you learned that already?" He stabbed where the armor was thin.
"You!... Do you need to bring up the past?" She asked in a somber tone.
"I do. Because I feel like you're the only one among us who is still living in the past. What's done is done so I suggest you focus on the future."
"And although I care for my life. My wives are important enough to me that I do not mind risking it. I feel the same way to you..." Lu smirked. It took a moment for her to process what he said before smoke started coming from her reddened face.
"T-That... I already told you that I'm not joining your games, L-Lu." The flustered Kitsune Saiguu uttered.
"All I'm saying is that you're free to join and have fun anytime." He calmly drank her tea while waiting for the frantic lady to calm down.
"You're unfair... Lu. You didn't even invite Chiyo. I found out by asking her a roundabout question. She will get mad, you know? You might die for another reason entirely." The bashful lady tried to drink her tea, only to find out its gone.
The person in front of her gave a shit-eating grin as her mind started running fast once more.
"Ah! I forgot to invite her." Orihime only deadpanned at him.
"Don't worry about such measly things. The Chiyo I know won't do anything like that. She's busy right now so I don't want to bother her. I already have something planned to make up for her later." He stated while giving her his untouched tea.
"You're way too stressed. How about I help you relieve yourself in some other way? Like how Ei and Makoto does it." Lu bluntly stated.
The Kitsune was happy that she could finally take her time with the tea, only for it to get spitted out due to his statement.
"Awah?!" She stared at the man in disbelief.
"You know? Something sword thingy?" He smirked.
"Lu..." Orihime stared at him with killing intent.
"Alright, Alright! I give in. It's just a spar. Loosen up yourself and stuff." Lu suggested.
"Hmm? Why the sudden idea?" She asked in curiousity.
"Yare yare, Orihime-chan. Don't tell me you are slacking~?" He teased.
"I'm not and you know that. I don't plan to have something like the past happen again..." The Kitsune muttered.
"All the more reason to do so. What weapon do you want? I'm not letting you use a catalyst or any element. Any thinking will strain your brain more and possibly stress you." The deity said.
"A sword."
"One sword coming right up~." He said as he undressed his top.
"Not that one!" Orihime exclaimed in disgust.
"What are you talking about? We're gonna spar right? So I need to get comfortable as possible..." Lu smirked.
"A-Ah..." She flustered herself once more.
"You really are weak against this kind of jokes, aren't you?" He swayed his finger in front of her.
"Just give it to me." She demanded.
"I don't have any ordinary ones, how about a big one~?" He grinned.
"JUST GIVE IT TO ME!!!" She shouted.
"Here you go... Out of topic, but that's lewd as fuck. I didn't know the mature leader of the Kitsunes was this horny-
"You're DEAD!!!" Orihime ran after him.
"I am shocked! I am astonished! I am absolutely appalled!!! You really were right. I might die due to another completely different reason." He stated before running away in laughter.
...
"Huff...Huff..." Orihime stood there with a ragged breathing. She seemed to have calmed down quite a bit, to say the least.
"Feeling better?" Raiden Lu smirked.
"Much better... What is this thing anyway? For some reason I feel like I can use abbysal energy more efficient." She scanned the unknown weapon.
"You said what??! When did you learn to do that?"! He exclaimed in surprise.
"That kid, Dainsleif, taught me. It was easy enough since I had quite an experience with it before..." She answered with a grim expression.
"There, there... How about a hug from yours truly~?" Lu comforted, in his usual way...
"...He also told me to take care of you. So... Prepare Yourself!!!" The abyssal energy resonated with the sword, and it grew larger... A lot bigger...
(Curse these two blondes!!! Pretty much all dangers came from them!) He readied himself to receive the weapon that was towering before him.
