For some reason, I wasn't allowed to get warm milk to relieve my headache. So much for having a harem and I can't even get some nice hot milk, fuck me.
Yuriko led us all around the mansion of the Takagi Manor that had turned into a refugee spot, there were a lot of people, way more than the space allowed. The men were being trained to defend the camp, the women were being indoctrinated to heal wounds.
It had become a facility that brought hope to those surrounded by zombies, periodically they'd go into excursions to try and rescue survivors and that's how she found the girls, we were already quite close to the mansion so she helped drive us here. A part of me thought this is what we should do in our own place, but... the other part thought about Miku and Higuchi... let alone trusting people, it is not even safe for us to stay here.
I hate my uncle but you can't deny he's quite capable, or maybe this is all Yuriko's doing and he has only been sitting his ass off.
...
"A pity that you didn't die horribly, brat".
"Feeling's mutual, uncle".
"Stop calling me uncle, the time you and I share blood is the time I'll slice my own veins to get rid of that filthy blood".
"Hurry up about it. I guess It can't be helped, I'll call you father-in-law instead, do you prefer that? By the way, you may become a grandfather soon so get used to it".
There was no helping this... he unsheathed his Katana and I materialised Clarent. The difference between now and them is that I'll make sure to slaughter him for good, my strength is way greater compared to before.
"Could you two stop with your games? we haven't got the time. Saya, go with your father, I have to speak with Brand, alone".
Before a clash could happen Yuriko pulled me away while Saya pulled her father, this is a dysfunctional family for you.
"…" Saya's glare towards her mother told stories.
"What?"
"The two of you are just going to talk, right?" Saya inquired, standing in front of Souichirou with her arms crossed, threateningly.
"…"
Yuriko frowned and released me, standing in front of Saya defiantly as if daring her to say another word, "So what if we're going to do more than just talk".
No words were mediated, Saya's hand slithered to the back of her skirt and to my shock, she pulled out a gun and remained in her same defiant position. Let alone me, Yuriko and Souchirou were both staring at her in disbelief.
Holy cow! Lucy has influenced her too much!
Regardless of hatred, both I and Souichirou gulped audibly, moving aside.
"Why would I bother fighting you physically, Okaasan? I know I won't be able to defeat you".
"Saya, you... what makes you think you can defeat me with guns?!" Yuriko couldn't believe this rebelliousness coming from her daughter, all she wanted to do was to slap her perverted nephew who was surely the one to blame for this.
"The fact that you are unarmed" Saya giggled and pointed her glock towards her mother, making sure to keep a safe distance that wouldn't allow Yuriko to disarm her in time. Yeah, she has learned some stuff with us.
"..." All Yuriko could do was stand there in disbelief, she had lost even before the battle began.
"I don't mind sharing, Okaasan. But it is me sharing with you what belongs to me, not the other way around".
Finishing her words Saya pulled her father away into the hallway, his last gaze towards me was one of pure unadulterated venom. I know you want to kill me and I don't blame you, uncle... if I was in your position I'd slaughter myself.
Yuriko pulled me aside harshly in the opposite direction, I can tell she was beyond upset. Thanks, Saya thank you so much.
I thought Yuriko felt outraged due to her daughter's rebellious behaviour, how foolish of me.
"Sharing with me what belongs to you... stupid brat, Brand has been mine since he was a kid!" She whispered in outrage, but it was loud enough for me and deadpan along the way.
"You know you could get imprisoned for saying that, Aunty".
"Shut up, we will speak about this later".
"Whatever you have to speak, speak with Saya directly" I could smell a scolding that I didn't want, sadly, just like Junior my mouth was also an idiot and it ran rampant, triggering Yuriko.
She pulled out the famous kabedon against me, pushing me to the walls. It was extremely effective with her breasts squishing against me, if she hoped to intimidate me, she did it.
"It is your fault that she has turned like this!"
"It is Lucy's fault! I'm not involved! I didn't teach her to carry a gun everywhere she goes, pointing it anywhere and shooting before asking like a hillbilly!"
I tried to explain myself and push her away -by squishing her breasts of course- which earned me her wrathful growl and another kabedon, this time more intense.
"That may be the case but if not for you never in a million years would that girl act so defiantly against me, threatening me like we're both a pair of slut fighting over a man... you do know I can get you whenever I want, do you?!"
You know a woman is angry when she becomes this unreasonable and doesn't even notice it. I guess deep inside she knows Saya's words are the truth, between the two of them, I have to prioritise Saya. As a mother she hopes that I'll do that... as a woman... she hopes I will prioritise her instead.
'Her mother's side is clashing against her woman's side, but... that's none of my business'.
"Y-You're diverting from the main topic, aunty... could we get back to the reason why you pulled me away?".
*Tch!*
"Get in there!"
Yuriko pushed me inside one of the doors and closed the door behind her, I drifted my gaze around and saw this was like a visitor's bedroom.
"Show it to me" She stated, leaning against the locked door and rubbing her temples.
"…"
Without another choice, I began removing my trousers.
"What are you doing?!"
"You want me to show you, no?"
"Damned perverted brat! I meant your powers!"
"Oh... that's heartbreaking" With my heart cracking I buttoned my trousers back, even though we were finally alone after sorting everything out. Thanks to Saya I may not end up having fun with Yuriko.
"Show me what you can do… they said something about a sword… and also some other girl that's with you now and she's a monster" Yuriko walked up to the bed and sat down on it, pulling me as I stood up in front of her.
'I guess the girls told her some stuff'.
"What did the girls tell you exactly?"
"A monster of shadows, a system that allows her to use your magic... tentacles and blood..."
I sighed, 'So they told her just riddles'.
"Then in that order, the woman is someone else I summoned just like Lucy, she saved us from a powerful infected, she has a long ass name, but she also goes by Chiyo. In brief, she's some sort of monster that wants to eat me once I become stronger".
"Eat you? Can I talk to her?" Yuriko didn't like that phrase, and neither do I but she was severely underestimating this monster that I have inside me.
'Only if she gives onee-chan an arm in exchange for my time~'
I don't know why her answer is within my expectations.
