Chương 40: Chapter 41 - Dimensional Training Room
Ryuu didn't mind telling the partial truth to Kanae knowing it was better to tell some of it since she would feel some distrust and question how she was able to come back to life. He used his [ Byakugan ] to analyze her body to see if there was any problem but none whatsoever.
It was safe to say that she appeared that her death never happened and could see her vitality. Ryuu ponders if she is still able to perform Total Concentration Breathing after a few years of being dead.
"Another world? I would consider you've brought me back to life but I'm curious if you're Kami?"
Ryuu already expected her to quickly believe him but he was taken aback by her question then realized where the question was coming from.
"No, I'm still human or I think I am?"
He is unsure if his actions still consider him a human after drinking blood and slaughtering humans. Shinobu was confused and slightly worried by what he said while Kanae was curious what he meant.
"What do you mean you think you're human?"
Shinobu was a bit scared that his lover would lose his humanity but wouldn't care if he happened to be a different race. He had done so much for her that it was the least she could accept who he was or rather what he was.
Ryuu saw Shinobu staring at him with a glimpse of fear hidden by her eyes and quickly caressed her hair that made Kanae giggled at his sweet action and calm Shinobu down.
"Well, I killed humans without flinching and drank their blood but I do find Demon taste to be better than human."
He honestly answered wanting to see if she would still remain by his side or fear that he was a cold hearted monster. Ryuu didn't mind having second thoughts as he would respect it.
However, there is no turning back after what he had done and only needed to move forward to protect himself and the people he loved. It sounded cliche but what would be the point of getting stronger if you're alone.
Kanae judged his character and by his honesty towards Shinobu showed that he cared for his opinion. Ryuu would have told Mitsuri and Justine if things weren't that complicated.
"I would understand if starting to have doubts-"
"We're the people you've killed bad people?"
Ryuu heard her ask, looking straight into his eyes. He only nodded not wanting to further explain himself considering it would be useless. However, his eyes lit up when Shinobu gave him a kiss on the lips that surprised Kanae by her sister's bold action.
"Ara~ don't mind me being here."
Kanae found it amusing how much things had changed after her death. Her sister had matured yet still had the straightforward personality unaware that it was only recently that she had changed to who she was today.
"I know you won't hurt anyone innocent. So long as you do it for others in order to protect the innocent then you're still a human to me."
Ryuu smiled hearing her words, nodding that he would surely not change his view in life. He is heartless to his enemy and gentle to those important to him. A rather cliche thing but that is better than being an emo edge lord or selfish character.
"Can you tell what reason you drink blood? Is it necessary for you to survive?"
"If it's necessary then I don't mind giving you some of my blood?"
Kanae suggested since she felt that it was her life to Ryuu but he only shook his head.
"Thank you for the offer, Kanae-san but it is not necessarily that I need blood to survive, rather it's more like drinking alcohol or even smoking."
"I'm relieved to hear that then are you like Sanemi's little brother?"
"Then what is the cause for your urge to drink blood?"
Kanae asked curious how someone has the sudden urge to drink blood while Shinobu mentions the Wind Hashira's little brother who is capable of consuming Demon flesh and used to amplify his strength.
Ryuu had almost forgotten about him and wondered how it works as the ability has never been fully explained in the manga. He may have [ Eidetic Memory ] but doesn't have [ Perfect Recall ].
He only needs a small hint for him to remember everything. Ryuu hopes he is able to learn Mind Palace to organize his memories. Fortunately, Ryuu didn't have to worry about memory overloading his mind thanks to [ Peak Human Condition Physiology ].
"It's because of this, only you and Shinobu know about this. Soon Mitsuri once I'm confident that she wants to be with me."
Kanae watches and witnesses a blood flowing that reshaped into numerous kinds of things from horse to a small dragon. It was a mystifying sight to see that made her even more drawn to him with her curiosity.
"What is that?"
"It's magic similar to Blood Demon Art but can be learned by humans either through meditation or by chance. Shinobu has been trying but it's extremely difficult to do so. Speaking of, have you acquired magic, Shinobu while I was gone?"
"Unfortunately, I haven't but I'm starting to sense their presence more and more."
Ryuu nodded surprised that it's been Three months but hadn't got the chance to gain magic. He could see Shinobu's disappointment but was quickly cheered up.
"You don't need to feel disappointed. Actually I have a new ability that I've recently acquired."
"This makes me interested to learn more about you."
Kanae alluringly said that Ryuu blushed a bit hearing her but then noticed Shinobu's slight ominous smile. She was clearly jealous but not enough to have a drama.
He soon showed them the [ Dimensional Training Room ] that made them gape in shock looking at the empty room.
"Where is this place, Ryuu-kun?"
"It's called a [ Dimensional Training Room ] where seven days here would equal one day outside."
Shinobu and Kanae were surprised to hear his explanation. It was unbelievable, but they had already seen too many bizzare things. It shouldn't be surprising anymore.
"I give you two permission to enter this place without me bringing you. Shinobu, you can stay here if you want?"
Ryuu could sense magical energy around the dimension therefore knew that Shinobu would be able to learn magic much quicker than before.
"Oh right here, can you close your eyes?"
Shinobu was confused but did as she told while Kanae observed the two curious then smiled seeing a hairpin stick that Ryuu bought in his adventure.
"Open your eyes, hope you like it."
Ryuu smiled as he brought a mirror from his inventory to show her the gift. She saw the butterfly hairpin stick looking at him with adorable smiles.
"Ara~ you're lover is rather sweet. I'm jealous."
"Thank you, Ryuu-kun."
He felt delighted then felt yet another kiss was taken and blush for a bit but enjoyed the moment.
"I hope I can find a lover like yours~."
"Onee-san, what will you do from now on? Would you return to slaying demons?"
"I think I'll just retire and enjoy living peacefully considering people already know I'm dead. Maybe find a man myself."
Kanae smiled, seemingly tired from her former lifestyle wanting to rear and let the other accomplish the thing she was unable to do.
Shinobu heard her sister felt relieved not wanting to lose her again then turned to look at Ryuu having a thought of her own. Ryuu noticed her gaze and didn't like where it was going but decided to let it be.
"You've already done enough before your death. Leave the rest to me and promise to give the peaceful life that all of you deserve!"
Ryuu showed his conviction, unaware of the effect of his words on Kanae. He somehow encompasses the dense harem protagonist's smooth tongue.
"Are you saying you want to be my man~?"
Kanae got closer to him with their faces inches apart that made him blush and saw Shinobu veins pop while he warily smiled at her.
"N-No, of course not. I'm just saying I'll try to give a life of prosper and peace to you and Shinobu…..fuck, I mean all of you like the other Hashira and-."
"Fufufu you're so cute."
"Enough teasing, Onee-san. I'm the only one that should be teasing him and not you."
"Ara~ when did the brash girl go? I promised I won't bite him….yet."
Ryuu couldn't help but sweat being in between the two koncho siblings fighting who get to tease him. He hopes it won't be a frequent occurrence.
