'Damn this woman, can't she trust someone,' Kurumi cursed as she felt something familiar ahead.
[Hey Kurumi do you feel that?] Haru asked Kurumi as he rushed straight through the trees and jumped up.
He saw two Beasts that were on Kamish's level 'fighting' one beast if it could even be called a fight.
[Yeah how can I not know this detestable flame,] Kurumi affirmed making Haru tilt his head because this wasn't what he asked her about.
The entire ground within a radius of 100 km was burning with red flame the scene looked like hell was summoned on earth.
There were two beasts one being a white tiger as big as a big school bus and the other being a wrym with a sleek serpentine body and wings on its back with two fore limbs its size was comparable to two train compartments.
But the thing was that both of them were being absolutely demolished by the third beast which was…..
"…A Crow?" Haru said with surprise as Kurumi clicked her tongue.
The third beast was a small normal-sized crow with raven black feathers and golden eyes with three magatamas in them as his eyes shined ominously while he looked at the two beasts.
The two beasts were in miserable condition as they had scorch marks all over their bodies while they were trying to attack the Crow who was just dodging them.
'He is almost on par with Resha only a little weaker than her, But that fire gives me bad vibes,' Haru thought as he who didn't even feel anything from Antares's flame felt like he would burn if he landed on the fiery ground but…
'The heat doesn't even affect me?' Haru was confused he was prepared as he had already covered his leg with Busoshoku Haki just in case.
'This is weird, I swear I had some fears regarding this fire but why does it feel so warm?' Haru was confused as Kurumi sighed in annoyance.
'Why did you do this? You Damn Son-con!!' Kurumi was furious in her head as she can already see the shit-eating grin Akane must be sporting right now.
CAWWWWWW*
The Crow noticed Haru and looked at him with his golden eyes.
ROAR*
RAWWWWWRRRRR*
This brought the attention of the two beasts to Haru as well they both looked at Haru and roared in anger seeing that he wasn't affected by the flame like they were. This made them even more enraged as they saw a small creature not being affected but they were it hurt their pride.
Both of the beasts pounced on Haru with the tiger on the left with his claws and the Wrym on the right who wanted to swallow Haru whole.
CAW*
SWISH*
But the Crow suddenly appeared between Haru and the beasts and flapped his wings sending out two slashes of Dark red fire that melted the ground as it made its way towards the two beasts.
The two Beasts tried to move out of the way but….
SPLASH* SPLASH*
It was to no avail both of their necks were cut or would disintegrate be the appropriate word? It was like someone had erased their necks causing their heads and bodies to be disconnected.
But it was clear that it was the Fire slash that the crow launched that was the reason for this.
THUD*
The two beast's bodies fell as their head rolled on the ground and stopped in front of Haru.
CAW*
The crow flapped his wings and appeared in front of Haru then cried as if asking 'How was that?'.
"It was…good," Haru answered as he tilted his head he wasn't talking about how he defeated the beasts, but the method and the power used for it.
'That flame was really powerful,' Haru nodded at the ability of this crow to use such hot flames he could reach it as well, it would take him some effort to do so but the crow did it nonchalantly.
CAW* CAW* CAW* CAW* CAW*
The crow flapped his wings as he circled around Haru, who could feel how happy he was which was surprising to him.
'Why do I know how he feels?' haru was completely at a loss but he saw the Crow land on his shoulder and he suddenly felt a clear link between the crow and himself.
[Hmm, well whatever Haru you got yourself a useful minion,] Kurumi said disinterestedly with a pout.
'Argh, That damn Son-con, why did she have to do this?' Kurumi was still in a bad mood.
[You don't sound happy,] Haru said as he rolled his eyes.
'Of course, I am in a bad mood, Your mother messed with my alone time with you,' Kurumi's eyebrows twitched but she coughed as she couldn't say that to him.
[Just your imagination, anyway he is still a baby so you better take good care of him,] Kurumi said.
[He is just a baby at the moment?] Haru asked as he started running towards the mountains, the sun was already setting now.
[Yeah he is,] Kurumi answered as she can see that this fellow was recently born.
'If he was fully grown just a glance from this guy is enough to burn a galaxy let's not even talk about flapping his wings,' Kurumi thought silently as Haru was setting a camp today to sleep because he hadn't appropriately rested since he came to this world.
Kurumi looked at the Crow who was arranging its feathers with its beak.
'I can feel traces of him using his ultimate technique, Who did that woman nuke this time?' Kurumi thought with an amused look on her face.
Akane used to send these crows to the factions that got on her nerves and bombed them with the ultimate technique of the Crows 'Hells Blaze', she was quite infamous because of this as well but she stopped using it after Haru was born, trying to turn over a new leaf.
'Well old habits die hard, anyway she actually gave this one life like the one she has, Huh.' Kurumi nodded as she looked at the Crow who finally noticed her gaze and gave her a salute by bringing his wing toward the side of his forehead.
'Fufu, at least you know your place,' Kurumi was amused at the little crow who suddenly flew in the air and vanished Haru was surprised but he was able to tell from his connection that it will be back in a bit.
"Here Kurumi," Haru said as he placed a plate full of fried food on the table for Kurumi.
[Fried food again? Why do you think I like this? I don't,] Kurumi said as her face was already in the plate munching on them.
"Sure you don't," Haru smiled as he sat down on his chair after placing a plate of Curry in front of himself. He then thought about what the Crow would like to eat.
[Just give him anything but my Food not that I like it,] Kurumi said making Haru laugh.
"Sure," Haru sat down at the table he knew that the crow will take some time before he is back so he started eating.
It would've been a scene out of a movie thanks to his look if he wasn't in the middle of a god damn forest which was filled man eating beasts.
This man had no sense of danger or urgency, if someone looked at his expression it would seem that this guy was camping in his backyard.
'What should I name him?' Haru thought as he had a few ideas but thought against it.
He was really tempted to name the Crow 'Itachi' who was the first one to pop up in his head but because the name means 'Weasel' it wouldn't be a good name for a crow.
'If I name him Yatagarasu, I can already feel everyone saying 'How Original',' Haru ate his rice and curry which was made my Kanae with a smile finishing it in no time he saw that Kurumi had finished her food as well.
"Do you want some more?" Haru asked her as he wiped the little fox's mouth which was smeared with oil and sauce with his handkerchief.
[No, Maybe later,] Kurumi answered as she jumped up on Haru's head and curled up like a ball.
"Now let's look for a good dessert," Haru kept the plate in his inventory after he washed them then thought hard and long about what he should have for dessert.
The problem wasn't that there too little but there were too many things to choose from the ladies went all out for his preparations, Haru knew that he would be fine even if he didn't cook for a month or two.
'I guess I'll just have this shortcake it has been a while since I had one,' Haru thought as he took out a strawberry shortcake made by Queresha who was the best when it came to pastries.
"Mhm," Haru's eyes were the shape of crescent moons as he ate the shortcake.
"Ok now time to sleep," Haru said as he place the table chair and the plate in his inventory and went into the tent to sleep without worrying about any beasts because this was made by Queresha and had the effect of repelling beasts while concealing the tent with dark magic.
'Not that I am worried even if they show up,' Haru thought as he would know something came near him even if he was sleeping.
"Night Kurumi," Haru said as he pulled a blanket over him.
[Good night Ha-kun,] Kurumi said as she yawned while curling into a ball next to his head.
Haru wasn't worried about the Crow because he could feel where he was with his connection, Haru closed his eyes and had a blissful sleep.
