Welcome to the next chapter of DxD – The Last Amagiri, but before starting. Let's answer some reviews:
altajir95: Thanks. Yes, their date continued, with more details about Itsuki and Kiyoko mentioned by him; in addition to a flashback with more of Yasaka's background during the Evil Dragon Invasion, with the fate of her mother.
Daniel Zamri: You're welcome, it was a reasonable question. And I'll be sure to ensure that the development between them is as good as the others.
0King: Thanks for the vote.
Guest: Thanks. I do plan for one when she returns to her adult form.
Cesar117: That is an interesting inclusion of Latia Astaroth, she does look like a good character.
nexusplayer: I have thought of doing something like that in the future. I know there are other crossovers of different series, but I don't often do that.
Doctor Enomoto
Another day in Okinawa, with Kensei learning more about the Kyoto Queen's past, hearing about her mother and her involvement in the Evil Dragon Invasion. Learning more about the woman he had come to love and also cherish was a great experience, more so since Yasaka herself was opening up more to him. In their hotel room, where the two were getting prepared for the morning, Kensei found himself sitting on the couch having gotten right out of the shower himself and was relaxing.
It would've been normal for them two to shower together, but in the Amagiri Household, sometimes it was a relaxing experience to shower alone. Waiting for Yasaka to get out of the shower, he found himself fiddling with the pendant worn around his neck. A kind of graduation present from Sun Wukong, crafted from special jade stone, it was an Eastern Dragon pendant. But, more unique than that it was modified through the techniques learned through his life and imbued with Yu-Long's dragon aura.
"Thinking back, this little guy has helped me out more than I thought possible," Kensei stated out loud, thinking back to some moments, like the time he could access the innate dragon power he inherited without restriction. "I couldn't sense it myself, but Sun-sensei felt that a dark seal was imprinted on my soul and made this for me. Aside from that, I could use this to refine my Dragon Ki through a Dragon King's dragon aura. And this trinket is still changing based on what I could tell."
Whether it was caused by Shiamano's spiritual atmosphere or from encountering the Dragon-type Spiritual Beasts there, the Dragon Pendant steadily took in both. It was steadily turning into something that Kensei couldn't imagine and thus made him believe that other Dragons' auras could start inhabiting it too.
"Thinking about it, it feels almost as if I'm carrying around the culmination of the Victorious Fighting Buddha's work around my neck, with the power of a Dragon King to match. I got lucky after meeting those two."
Kensei stated, feeling glad he could be proud saying that he learned from two Buddhas, Sun Wukong and Xuanzang Sanzang.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Right then, Kensei found himself hearing the notification from his Oracle Phone which was stationed on the table at a distance from himself. Instead of getting up, he stared at it then used Telekinesis to bring it towards himself and held it in his hands.
"Oh, Claire," Kensei stated, recognizing the caller ID. "Hello."
[Hey, Kensei, just wanted to call in and see what you two were up to.]
"Well, it's the third day here, and already something interesting happened on the first day before getting here."
Kensei replied, finding himself getting comfortable in the seat.
[Oh, and that would be…. Wait, don't tell me, did something happen and you got involved in something again.]
"Alright, that doesn't happen every time we happen to go somewhere. It's almost close to a third percent of the time, sometimes a little bit of fifty percent of the time. Speaking of, did something happen there?"
Kensei asked back.
[Nope, nothing happened here. We've gone around Urakyoto several times, and aside from some not-so-bad disputes between the Youkai residences nothing important.]
Clair replied.
"Did Lingqi happen to have knocked out one of them for touching her?"
Kensei asked, but almost thought he heard: 'I heard that' from Lingqi in the background.
[No, she didn't…] There seemed to have been a pause, hearing: 'I didn't knock anyone out' again from Lingqi in the background, he then thought he heard her leaving that room. […yep, she didn't knock anyone out thus far. So, where is Yasaka-san now?]
"Taking a shower."
[Oh, and you two didn't decide to share this time?]
Claire teased, with Kensei believing she smiling on the other end.
"No, sometimes we don't take showers together and simply enjoy the personal time," Kensei stated as he still heard Yasaka showering in the bathroom. "We do that a lot sometimes too remember?"
[Of course, I remember. Well, things are going fine with us helping Kunou making sure that things in Urakyoto run as well without Yasaka-san needing to be worried. Surprising as it might sound, I can imagine this spoiled princess making a competent Queen.]
[Kunou heard that Claire-san!]
Kensei could hear Kunou shouting in the background.
[I think she heard me.]
Claire spoke almost sarcastically.
"Well, where's Alice?"
Kensei asked, surprised that Alice didn't come over to the phone to talk to him too.
[She headed back to the Kibou Alliance for a medical checkup.]
Claire replied something that Kensei remembered.
During the Ordinal's invasion, to heal from a fatal injury, one of her monsters, Alphard grafted their flesh into Alice, creating what Abigail dubbed 'monster cells'. Due to these cells inhabiting Alice's body, Abigail wanted her to have regular checkups whenever possible. Based on them, the monster's cells are in the process of spreading across Alice's body, replacing the Human cells yet acclimating to her body. If that process accelerated, then she could turn into a half-monster, then a Humanoid Monster.
Compared to normal cells, the monster cells are adapting much more as Alice continues living her life and doing regular activities. But, that didn't seem to bother her as she was already born with a much weaker body, with it just meaning she'll get a stronger body that'll let her be with Kensei and Claire much longer.
"Well, tell her to call in so I can see how it went."
Kensei stated, wondering what would happen with Alice in the end.
[Alright then worrywart.] Although Claire said that, she was worried about Alice herself, more so since it was a major shock to her too. [But, the Temporary Queen would like to talk to you too. And so, I'll be going to finish something. Love you, I'll talk to you later.]
"I love you too, Claire."
After that, Kensei assumed that Claire walked to hand the phone to Kunou before walking off, and then he started to hear the young Kyuubi preparing to speak.
[So, Ken-chan, have you and Hahaue been having fun?]
Kunou asked, starting off the conversation with that.
During that, Yasaka exited the bathroom dried off her hair, and dressed in a white robe without wearing anything underneath it. Due to unintentionally not making a single sound and being more focused on the phone call right in front of him, Kensei didn't seem to notice.
"…."
Yasaka noticed the same thing, as she looked to find and hear Kensei was walking to Kunou over the phone. And in that moment a mischievous idea entered her teenage mind, causing the Kyuubi to approach Kensei without ever making her presence known. It resulted in her turning into a small Nine-Tailed fox, then proceeded to sneakily head in Kensei's direction before moving around the couch.
"We took a lot of photos of Okinawa if you're ever interested in seeing them."
[Of course, I'm looking forward to seeing them! I hope that Hahaue is having fun on this break, she deserved it. I'll be interested in heading out there myself, this time as a group…or a solo date.]
Kunou said that last part in such a cute tone that made Kensei almost want to hug her.
"Well, we'll see what we can do about…." right in that instance, Kensei felt movement right in front of him, but it wasn't enough to cause him to jump. "…."
Kensei looked down to find Yasaka positioned in front of him, on her knees and leaning forward, then undid his robe without hesitation. In her hands, his dick entered her hand as a teasing smile graced her face and it didn't take long to realize what her intentions were aside from the obvious.
'Don't react.'
He could see those words being mouthed from Yasaka's mouth as her hands started moving without needing to be directed.
[Is something wrong, Ken-chan?]
"No, nothing's wrong, Kunou. So, like I was saying, I wouldn't mind going on a trip like with you."
Kensei replied, sounding calm enough as Yasaka started feeling her mischievous teen side coming out.
As her lover continued conversing with her daughter, Yasaka had the feeling that she shouldn't be doing this, but that made it all the more exhilarating. Her hand wrapped around his dick which started becoming harder and erect from the actions. Feeling such a thing in her hand, Yasaka leaned forward as her tongue began running up it with a sensual motion.
"So, what has the current acting Queen been up to?"
Kensei asked, being interested and wanting to hear what Kunou had been up to.
[Well, Kunou has found herself thinking that she has been doing a good job so far. I find myself receiving some help from Hahaue's assistants, Kunou's co-fiancèes, and Lingqi-san. Nothing serious has happened so far, but Kunou is always on the lookout for trouble.]
Kunou explained, feeling more and more proud of herself.
"Yes, Kunou has been a good girl. Just make sure that…," as Kensei was preparing to speak he found himself giving a faint pause as Yasaka proceeded to nimble on the head, and then her tongue started circling it. "…you continue doing what you're doing without feeling as if you have to prove yourself so soon."
[Kunou is doing what Kunou can. Hahaue always makes it a point to tell Kunou that she doesn't need to do the same things as her.]
"Yes, that sounds like Yasaka."
Kensei started finding himself continuing to speak as Yasaka wrapped her hand around the lower portions as her mouth was wrapped around the head, then proceeded to move her hand up and down in rhythm. It was at this point that he found himself struggling to maintain composure at Yasaka's pleasurable actions. Her actions just kept on increasing and decreasing almost teasing and enticing him, causing him to become completely aroused. Seeing as the purpose it to continue speaking with Kunou without being discovered, this was almost a guilty pleasure.
She then decided to take the plunge and placed his hardened length in her mouth, then started moving her head up and down with more vigor compared to before. It seemed as if her mischievous side almost wanted to make it close to impossible for him to not get caught by Kunou, something which didn't take long for Kensei to notice.
[Ah, wait, Ken-chan is Hahaue outside of the shower yet. I want to talk to her.]
"Oh, I think that she's getting out of the shower," Kensei replied, in a strained voice as he placed a hand on Yasaka's head and caused the teen Yasaka to notice it. "Just give me a moment."
[Okay~]
Kunou replied in a cheerful tone.
During that, Kensei found himself placing both hands on Yasaka's head, then proceeded to motion her head up and down without her need to do a single thing. It was a rough motion, but during their time spent together Yasaka was someone who didn't mind getting rough. Yasaka felt Kensei's hardened dick entering and exiting her mouth which made the pleasure she felt making her feel wetter. Most often the two would want to go longer but Kensei said that it would take a moment for Kunou to talk to her mouth, meaning this needed to be good and quick.
"Kuh."
"Mph."
Both of them gave silent grunts and moans, as Kensei's dick touched the deeper parts of Yasaka's mouth and then an abundant amount of semen was poured straight down her mouth. Yasaka almost felt herself twitching as Kensei did not release her head until he was satisfied, causing her to be released.
"…."
In that instance, Yasaka didn't find herself coughing or letting the cum leave her mouth, as it flowed right down her throat without issues. After that, a teasing look appeared on her face as she showed Kensei her tongue and mouth, holding up a double peace sign.
"…what a woman."
Kensei uttered, holding up his Oracle Phone, as Yasaka took up and grabbed onto it.
"Hello, Kunou."
Yasaka said, greeting her daughter as she leaned against the couch.
[Hello, Hahaue, how are you and Ken-chan enjoying the vacation?]
"Oh, Kensei and I are enjoying ourselves on this vacation in Okinawa, thanks for asking dear."
Yasaka replied, with Kunou noticing something odd.
[Hm, Hahaue, is there something wrong with your voice?]
Kunou asked.
"Hm, well, let me show you," Yasaka stated, reaching her hand out and touching the video call, moving the phone a bit further from her face. "Hey, dear!"
[….] Kunou looked forward to finding her mother as a teenager with a surprised expression on her face, who in reaction to that stunned face looked as casual as possible. [Eeeeeeeeeh!]
"Oh, Kunou, I warned you about screaming in the mansion. We use our indoor voice."
Yasaka stated, finding herself acting more like a mother.
[Why does Hahaue look like that?! Hahaue looks like Kunou as a teenager.]
"Well, if we're being technical, this is what you might look like if you grow up since you're MY daughter."
Yasaka casually said.
[…but, why are you…?]
"Remember Auntie Hinata?"
[…yes.]
"Well, when we were children, she made it a habit of giving your mother different things that could cause different effects. And she hasn't done it in a long time, so, this time, it turned me into a teenager."
Yasaka replied, wearing a casual smile.
It was a situation that Kunou couldn't understand and was surprised about, but seeing her mother look and act like this was a different experience. But, noticing the free and causal expression from her mother was something that made Kunou smile.
[Well, how has Hahaue and Ken-chan enjoyed themselves?]
Kunou asked, calming down from the big surprise.
"…Alright, then we…."
Yasaka and Kunou found themselves having a long conversation with one another, being far more casual due to them being similar in age. Hearing about all the things they have done thus far and what happened in Okinawa thus far was a wonderful experience for Kunou. And then after Kunou informed Yasaka about all the things that she and the others had done in Urakyoto during her stay, this caused the teenage mother to feel proud. Noticing the conversation between mother and daughter was something the young man sitting beside her found himself smiling at.
[Well, I talk to you later, Hahaue.]
"Alright, dear, I talk to you later. I love you."
[Hehehe, I love you too.]
Kunou giggled a bit as she heard those words from her mother, then hung up.
As Yasaka found herself holding the Oracle Phone in her hands, she let a smile grace her face.
"Well, it was funny seeing my daughter's reaction to her mother turning into a teenager again. But, teenager or not, I am proud that Kunou is showing more potential than I did as a future Queen. Still, I want to make sure that she has more freedom before needing to become Queen," Yasaka said, placing the Oracle Phone on the couch's arm. "So, I'll maintain the position for as long as I can."
"I think you're doing great as a Queen, Yasaka-san. You earned the respect of those around you and managed to be a Queen that your mother could be more than proud of."
Kensei stated as Yasaka felt her heart warming up from those words.
"Ah, aren't you a smooth talker? I have enjoyed a lot of freedom and peace thus far during this little vacation from being the Queen. But, even like this, I'm aware that I can't continue being here and would need to return to become the person I am."
"Speaking of, did Hinata ever mention how long that would last?"
Kensei asked that question, and then Yasaka made a face.
"Ah, that's the beauty of knowing Hinata and having her as a friend. She often never mentions or thinks about how long anything she administers lasts. The last time she made a medicine that gave me a tenth tail, it didn't go away until a week later. And the time my hair kept changing closer daily, it didn't stop until a month later. Such a great friend, but Hinata could be a pain in the ass to deal with sometimes."
Yasaka explained as Kensei couldn't help finding himself wondering how Hinata was a teenager, but seeing her at that age would be a nightmare. Hisui inherited a lot of personality traits from Hinata, but at least there was some hint of restraint from her. And seeing as Hinata had no issue in administering experimental medicines to someone as important and irreplaceable as the Urakyoto Princess. That combined with the medical skills she gained thus far would make her a genuine issue for people.
"Well, let's hope that she doesn't decide to take that medicine herself. It's bad enough taking care of the people we have no. So, imagining a teenager Hinata-san experimenting on people would be insane."
Kensei stated.
"Tell me about it, it would be the same as returning to my childhood trauma," Yasaka stated, wearing a smile before finding herself thinking of today. "So, what's on the schedule for today?"
"Right, before that."
Kensei stood up from the seat, then approached Yasaka who looked surprised about what he meant about that. He then grabbed a hold of her wrist and started leading the confused teenage Kyuubi towards the window which was barely opened enough to let some light in. After raising the blinds so that much greater light and an unobstructed view of Okinawa was right before them. It was a beautiful sight, but it was something that the two saw before and there was no explanation about why Kensei led her there.
"So, what are we…?"
Before Yasaka could react, Kensei snatched off the white robe she was wearing without hesitation, unveiling her fully naked body in front of the window. Her face turned bright red from the actions and came close to covering herself up until Kensei spoke.
"Don't lift a finger."
Kensei almost ordered as Yasaka's arm halted and almost caused her to shiver from the commanding tone. Being in front of a window where someone could look inside caused a feeling of embarrassment to well up in her chest. After all those feelings started accumulating in her chest, a flustered and excited look was shown on Yasaka's face as her body started moving and twisting around.
"S-So, what's the reason that I'm like this?"
Yasaka asked as she continued squirming around.
"Well, since a certain someone likes being a show-off, I wanted to see what your reaction to this would be."
Kensei replied, finding himself approaching Yasaka and grabbing onto her ass, causing her to moan as a warm feeling started welling up in her mind. He then proceeded to continue massaging her ass with a firm grip, then started to send a warming sensation throughout her body.
It was caused by Kensei sending Ki directly into Yasaka's body, increasing her pleasure, enough to almost cause a heated breath to escape from her mouth. Her eyes started becoming unfocused as it almost seemed as if Yasaka was in the process of losing herself to pleasure.
"Come on, is there something that you want to say?"
Kensei asked as he squeezed Yasaka's ass.
"…window…."
"Hm?"
"…push me against the window," Yasaka started, then leaned against Kensei until her breasts were pushed right up against her lover's chest. "…and as an apology for my mistake and recklessness, fuck me until you're satisfied."
"Alright, then."
Lemon Start!
After that, without needing to be directed, Yasaka approached the window, then pressed herself up against it as the coldness from it could be felt on her nipples. And then she presented herself to Kensei in anticipation without even hesitation. Already hardened, Kensei didn't hesitate to insert himself into Yasaka from behind, causing a sharp gasp and moan to escape from her mouth.
"Hah!"
Yasaka felt herself immediately aroused from the immediate insertion and thrust, which caused her to be moved forward from the action. Kensei himself could feel her inner walls tightening around his hardened member, which he proceeded to remove and reinsert at a continued pace.
"Aha, haah, ha, ahhhhh."
Yasaka found herself continuing to moan as Kensei proceeded to thrust hard into his lover, causing her mind to turn blank as the pleasure started overtaking her previous thoughts. It didn't help the fact that Kensei increased her arousal before this started, then increased it with the activation of Bouchujutsu. Same as before, the points where she felt the most arousal were pressed causing the Ki to spread throughout her body and increase the arousal.
"Haaah."
There was another trait that made this situation all the more arousing, which was the fact that the two of them did this in front of the opened window. Their hotel room wasn't that high up in the hotel, meaning that anyone who was far enough could look up and see what the two were doing. And with that in mind, the feelings of embarrassment and excitement about that caused her inner walls to tighten up.
"Oh, what a perverted Queen. Or, would you be a princess at this age?"
Kensei asked teasingly, finding himself leaning in as he thrust into Yasaka, causing a real sharp moan to escape her mouth as it opened up.
As he stated, he could feel the Kyuubi tightening around as she continued feeling her womb being thrust into. Her eyes almost started to roll back from the pleasure being sent through her. Moving back from the window a couple of inches, the window's coldness was replaced with the feeling of Kensei pinching her nipples. All of this didn't stop as Kensei continued thrusting into her.
"Aaaaah, hah, hah, kuh."
Yasaka moaned almost as if she were in heat, causing the continued moans and grunts from all the rough and erratic thrusts into her.
"Come on, what happened the bluster and confidence from before, Yasaka," Kensei asked, ensuring to whisper into Yasaka's ear, who couldn't give a single response in that instance. "Come on, shouldn't you be answering?"
Slap!
"Ah," Yasaka moaned as Kensei slapped her ass causing a reaction that spread throughout her body. She was sure that he used ki in that instance and increased the pleasure. "Hah, haaah…."
After moaning for a bit, Yasaka found herself reacting more on instinct instead of rational thought as she raised her hand towards Kensei. Knowing what this means, instead of causing on her ass or breasts, he then found himself grabbing a hold of her wrists, giving him something to hold on to. And then he gave another strong thrust into Yasaka, continued on the same action that he had before.
"Hah."
Yasaka gasped, as the sounds of Kensei thrusting into her could be heard and resounded in the room, accompanied by her hot moans. During all that, before him, she'd felt herself climaxing a least twice before Kensei even came close himself. Even during this, with her mind almost blank from the pleasure, she almost instinctively knew that he was going to climax as his dick twitched in her tightening walls. And before one final thrust, he found himself also channeling Dragon Ki directly into Yasaka, at the same time as reaching and climaxing into her womb.
"Aaaaaaaah!"
Yasaka moaned, almost spreading throughout the room as golden hearts appeared in her eyes, with the same aura that wrapped around her body. A blue aura wrapped around Kensei with his eyes shining, with a mixture of black aura that accompanied them, as their auras returned to their bodies, unknowingly the black aura which was Kensei's dragon aura focused around the area of her stomach, almost seemed to form a pattern before fading.
After that, Yasaka almost slumped down forward if she hadn't been held up by Kensei, who continued holding onto her, and then removed himself from her. It caused the semen that filled up her womb to start leaking out, with both of them breathing out from the lovemaking session.
"Well, that was more intense than before. Hm, I wonder what that was from…."
"…Ken…sei…."
Hearing Yasaka moaning his name caught his attention, then without much hesitation and without losing energy, she sat up and moved up close to him and smashed her lips against his. After that, the two fell to the ground as the young woman lay on top of him with his still-hardened member in her hands.
"You're not done yet. You're not satisfied yet."
Yasaka started breathing out, before moving back from him.
"Oh?"
Kensei looked up to find that the golden hearts remained in her eyes as she looked down at him.
"As much as you want, as much as you can. Use me however you want until you are satisfied."
Yasaka stated with a heated breath as pleasure almost took over her mind.
"Alright, then come on."
Kensei replied, as his hardened member stood at attention and Yasaka covered over him.
She hovered over his member with her entrance that still had semen leaking out and being reinserted into, as she moved her body downwards with a moan. Yasaka found herself resting right at the base, as their lovemaking session kept on proceeding forward from that. After that, Kensei and Yasaka would spend almost the entire morning and further having sex inside their hotel room without leaving, skipping out on breakfast. However, despite that, the teenage Kyuubi didn't have even the slightest complaint.
Meanwhile, in Urakyoto, Kunou continued with her regular, with the others aiding in maintaining things in the place of her mother. Right at that moment, it was their break later near the early evening with Alice found herself sitting with legs crossed inside of a garden located at the mansion. Right beside her was a collection of snacks and tea which was handed off to her by one of Yasaka's servants.
"…."
Alice found herself drinking from the tea placed beside her with some noticeable grace.
During this, she found herself thinking about what she heard from Abigail after the latest examination:
'Alice, I can see that the monster's cells began spreading to other areas. So, far, the most affected areas have been your internal organs, in particular, around your stomach which Arata pierced. Based on initial scans and Hinata's tests, it seems as if the spread started slowing down as your body accumulated to them. But, external stimuli could stimulate them, increasing their spread. Your organs are functioning efficiently, and you gain natural healing abilities that close minor wounds almost immediately. At this point, your body is breaking everything you eat and drink, with all the nutrients being enough to sustain you for longer than average. You're not close to becoming a Half-Monster, let alone a Humanoid Monster, so I can only imagine what'll happen afterward.'
What Abigail told her wasn't a lie, as Alice found herself feeling less and less hungry sometimes during the summer break. She was a bit lazier with or without the fact her body was weak, but there were times during paintings when she wanted to eat. But, thus far, after hearing a meal, she could find herself continuing to paint and draw without ever experiencing the same exhaustion.
'Human cells are highly adaptive, it might seem as if the monster cells are replacing the human cells. But, it almost looks as if they're intermingling making them more adaptive. If you continue living normally, the monster cells won't spread as much. But, things like training and healing would stimulate them, increasing the process. Hm, I can imagine that environmental conditions and your abilities might become a factor in it too.'
As Alice sat there, eating the snacks given to her, she found herself thinking about those words without showing much of a reaction. But, she wasn't lying about not caring about whether or not she turned into a monster, which was a simple enough thing for her. If it meant that Alice could live with them for much longer then it wasn't even an issue for her.
"…," although, thinking about that was just a random thought that came to mind because she wasn't doing a single thing in that instance. With that in mind, Alice found herself looking up with a deadpan look on her face, then there was one thing that she could do right then. "I guess that I could practice what I learned."
With that in mind, Alice found herself standing up and retrieving a talisman from her dimensional storage. Letting a calming breath escape from her mouth, she started making a hand sigh, as a darkish aura radiated from it. Inside Shiamano, Alice learned about Spiritual Power Manipulation from the Shikigami in charge of her and learned their clan's particular technique in creating them.
She learned that caused of her near-death experience, the spiritual power she had increased, combined with their experience in Shiamano made Alice more or less an expert level among the Amagiri-ryuu. But, as the Shikigami also pointed out being in direct contact with Kensei's spiritual power, it influenced hers.
The spiritual power surrounded the talisman, and then it shattered into light particles before manifesting as a small, if not medium-sized black floating creature. It wasn't something that resembled a normal animal, instead, it would look like something she'd create using Annihilation Maker.
"Well, aren't you a little cutie?"
Alice stated, poking the small creature in its 'cheek', something that it proceeded to respond to with some affection.
It then proceeded fluttering about around Alice at a slow pace, almost as if it were enjoying itself and getting used to flying about. Noticing this, she gave a faint smile as the small creature floated around its creator's head without a care in the world.
"Hmm, I heard from the Shikigami that if I continue mastering the Amagiri Clan's particular technique, then I could create Shikigami without talismans. Kensei doesn't use Shikigami much, so he doesn't have a real reason to master a technique like this," Alice stated as the small creature landed in the palm of her hands. "But, then I started learning to imagine being able to manipulate my own shadow without Annihilation Maker, believing that would lead him to an enlightenment of some kind or creating something that my own. Hm, I also started reading the passages left by the people in the Amagiri Clan who happened to inherit Annihilation Maker."
As Alice continued talking, almost as if the small creature in her hands was her conversational partner. But, among them, she was a unique person as none of them showed the ability to store their monsters inside of their shadows.
"For Creation-type Sacred Gear users, the things we create don't match the real thing, including mine. But, then users like Maria make up for it with their imagination, productivity, and innate abilities. As a High-Tier Longinus, I should be capable of more than that. So, if I master creating strong and sentient Shikigami without talismans, while I learn to manipulate shadows myself, then the monsters I can create should give that asshole Arata a shock."
There were rare moments when Alice would ever express genuine anger and contempt for someone, but Arata was someone deserving of those emotions. He attacked their home, attacked innocent people, and almost killed her, but far more than that, Arata had the nerve to treat Kensei as if he were the cause of it all.
"So, are you going to help me make him regret attacking us?"
Alice asked, poking the dark creature's cheek yet again, causing it to give a cheerful 'giggle'.
"So, is that the latest Shikigami?"
A familiar voice came in the form of Claire who returned with Kunou and Lingqi, having gone out for a walk.
"Yeah, a cutie isn't he?"
Alice asked as the three looked at the floating dark creature with an examining glance.
"…yeah."
"Yes."
"Sure."
Claire, Kunou, and Lingqi replied, not saying that the creature floating around Alice wasn't unique and had some cute traits, but it wasn't their particular tastes. It appeared as if Alice was satisfied with that response alone without dwelling on it much. It was true that none of them could beat her when it came to imagination and art, with the young woman in front of them being a famous artist without the rest of the world knowing her real name. But, that meant that Alice had a unique perspective on the world that didn't make her one to hold back her thoughts and could see things in another direction.
"Well, it should be time for some lunch. So, why don't I have…?"
In that instance, Kunou was preparing to speak further but found herself pausing as there was something that made her fox ears twitch and her senses react.
"Kunou, what's wrong?"
Noticing this sudden reaction, Claire found herself glancing at Kunou with a worried look.
"I'm starting to feel something odd. I can feel some Youkai's presence, but they don't feel at all familiar," Kunou said as she started expanding her senses much further. "They're strong but unfamiliar and…."
Right in that instance, Kunou reacted and then started heading in the direction of the mansion, with Claire, Alice, and Lingqi immediately following behind. It was the first time that either of them noticed her acting with much urgency, but it meant that there was something seriously wrong.
"What did you feel Kunou?"
Claire asked, wanting to know what was wrong ahead of time.
"Claire-san, look in the direction west from here!"
Kunou said, wanting to focus on heading straight there.
"…."
Realizing what Kunou meant about that, Claire activated her Second Sight, causing the nine multicolored tomoe to manifest around her eyes. Glancing in the direction Kunou meant, she could see past the walls in front of them and further out towards what worried Kunou. In front of her, there was a massive group of Youkai approaching the capital at a steady pace and the youki released by them wasn't at all weak and wasn't by any means average.
"Those are a lot of unidentified Youkai coming towards this direction and none of them looks at all friendly. Most of them aren't the usual Youkai that would be found around here and we haven't run into them before."
Claire explained as Alice and Lingqi realized what Kunou was worried about.
"We don't know what these Youkai want. They could be friendly or hostile, no matter what, we have to prepare and ensure that this doesn't turn into a battle in Urakyoto."
Kunou explained, showing more of the natural leadership that made Yasaka believe in her as a future Queen.
Arriving at the meeting room, where her mother's attendants had been doing their jobs, the people there glanced at Kunou and could see her serious expression.
"What's wrong, Kunou-sama?"
The Old Tengu asked.
"There's about a total of twenty-nine unidentified Youkai heading in this direction. All of them are strong in their own right, above being referred to as average Youkai. We don't know what their intentions are as none of them have shown themselves to be hostile. But, we need to be prepared in case something happens."
Kunou explained with her mother's attendants already moving into action.
"What do you need us to do, Kunou-sama?"
One of the Kitsune attendants asked.
"…." getting into a thinking position, Kunou thought about that and sensed the direction all the unidentified Youkai were heading and noticed their path didn't change. "Send the men we have towards Urakyoto's western parts, then have the Youkai there move back in case a fight happens. Have others positioned in the northern, eastern, and southern parts in case there are some more hidden ones and just in case barriers need to be placed up to defend the Youkai or they need to be evacuated too."
[Yes, Kunou-sama!]
Neither of them went against that order and could tell that it was a sold plan for whatever would happen. But, that just left who would be heading out to meet the unidentified Youkai.
"Kunou-sama, are you heading out to be the unknown Youkai?"
The Old Tengu asked worriedly.
"Yes, as the acting Queen, I'll need to meet and see what they want," Kunou replied, finding herself also standing with the women standing beside her. "It's alright, I have more than enough help standing with me."
"That's right."
"We'll be able to protect Kunou if something happens."
"And she'll be able to support us."
Claire, Lingqi, and Alice replied, having the utmost faith in Kunou.
"Also, has it been completed?"
"Yes, the people from the Kibou Alliance have been quite a big help in making the preparations in Urakyoto over the summer break too. So, it'll be ready to be activated at your discretion."
The Old Tengu replied.
"That's perfect. So, let's head out and see what these people want."
Kunou replied, with the people surrounding the Princess agreeing without hesitation.
During that, the people of Urakyoto prepared themselves for the approaching and unidentified Youkai, with Kunou, Claire, Alice, and Lingqi heading straight there. It didn't take long for them to arrive in front of them, nothing short of a couple of minutes. Right then, Kunou and them now dressed for potential combat, then noticed that the Youkai in front of them stopped in front of them. There wasn't a single Humanoid-type Youkai in front of them, most of them were Beast-type Youkai.
During that, Kunou, as the current acting Queen found herself approaching the Youkai, not a single one stood right in front of the other as the leader. None of them seemed hostile in that instance, however, there wasn't the slightest hint of emotion in their eyes.
"My name is Kunou, the acting Queen of Urakyoto. Might I ask for the that you're here? If you're looking for a place to reside, then please speak up."
Kunou asked, but there didn't seem to be the slightest reaction from them.
"There's something wrong with them," Claire stated, with her Second Sight still aimed at them and examining them. "As soon as we arrived here the Youkai stopped moving forward and haven't reacted to us."
"They were probably sent here by Yami because we've seen this kind of mental conditioning from some of the men we've fought against. I heard that some Youkai are capable of being rational, but others are more volatile almost no different from beasts."
Alice stated, with Lingqi agreeing with those words.
"But, what would be the point of sending them here? I know that there are Rogue Dwarves in Yami assisting them, so it could mean that the Beast-type Youkai were included in their soldiers too."
Lingqi added, finding herself having an odd sensation that almost felt like some form of premonition.
"You, are the Fox Princess, Kunou."
"Yes, I am."
Kunou replied, finding herself surprised that the one in front of her was capable of speech.
A lion-type Youkai spoke up, but Kunou was well aware that those kinds of Youkai should be incapable of speech. So, it meant that the Youkai was a modified creature that gained the ability to speak.
"We are not here to refuge."
"Then why are you here."
"A test."
"A test?"
Kunou found herself confused for a moment, but then an answer that manifested itself within their minds.
"Our Savior strengthened us enough to bypass the limits of our species, and his employer wanted to test how effective his technique is."
The Lion-type Youkai replied.
"Aid? Strengthened," Kunou in that instance started wondering what those words meant and then the answer came to mind. It was then she remembered the conversation between herself and her mother. "Could this have something to do with what Hahaue talked about concerning Kunou's father? She told me that he experimented on dangerous Youkai. And these Youkai are no doubt unlike how they were supposed to be naturally."
"So, then that means there's no more need for conversation."
Another Youkai spoke.
And in that instance, the Youkai found themselves unleashing their youki, enshrouding themselves in a dangerous aura. It wasn't dangerous to them, but the four women standing there could see that they were strong but not to the point of being a threat.
"Well, of course, this ends up becoming a battle."
Alice stated, wearing a casual look as her shadow extended as some new monsters started pulling themselves out of it. Lingqi found herself getting into position for a battle, the same as Claire who begun manifesting their powers as a determined expression on their faces. From there, all four young women planned on fighting against the small army of modified Youkai.
"Huh, just think I called Kensei and said that he and Yasaka-san haven't gotten into trouble."
Claire stated.
In Okinawa, at the water park where Kensei and Yasaka found themselves dressed in their swimsuits, the two found themselves sitting at one of the seats underneath a pavilion. Leaving their hotel room, the two decided to go to the water park having the tickets that Hinata gave them. The couple played around at the water park for several hours and had a good time. Of course, the two received attention from men and women due to their appearances and bodies. However, the two ignored them until Kensei found himself needing to intimidate some men who started taking it too far.
Some of the activities included going down together on a water slide, with Yasaka holding onto himself as the two of them landed right into the pool at the end. She didn't release him even as the two sunk deeper into the pool, having a smile plastered on her face the entire time. During that, he found himself forming a giant bubble under the water while hiding what was happening so that no normal person would notice.
It was another special moment that the young man created to ensure that this vacation would be a memorable time. Floating inside of that bubble, Yasaka almost didn't want things to end there and felt almost as if she wanted time to slow down. After that, the two
"Hey, another peaceful day."
Yasaka stated, finding herself speaking in a calm tone, staring at the beach in front of them.
"Yeah, as much as a prankster Hinata-san could be. She is sure a good friend for preparing this trip for you."
Kensei added, finding himself looking forward.
In front of them, the two of them were drinking from something that the two brought to the drink stand, wearing a smile. It was a unique mixed fruit drink that the two of them wanted to try and found themselves enjoying once the two started drinking it.
"Yeah, it's one of the reasons that we became and remained friends."
Yasaka stated, but then found herself looking forward and drinking from her mixed fruit drink too.
"So, how did you two become friends?"
Kensei asked, finding himself wondering how the Kyoto Queen met Hinata, a Nekoshou.
"Hm, it's not that quite an interesting story, buuut if you're interested," Yasaka said, finding herself with an interest in enduring that she would exaggerate that comment. "As I said, it isn't much of an interesting story. But, our meeting happened like this, when I was eight, I found myself leaving Urakyoto for the first time. It wasn't as if I left myself, I had escorts taking me around Kyoto. During that time, I found myself attacked by some Youkai hostile to the Kyuubi and wanted to kidnap me. As my escorts were fighting against them, while I ran from them. And then as I was running, one of them followed behind me knowing that the escorts would fight as I ran back to Urakyoto. It was then, that something happened that I wasn't expecting."
Yasaka remembered running away from the hostile Youkai chasing after her, something that was a scary experience for an eight-year-old. During that moment, she was close to returning to Urakyoto through the typical entrance but found herself being cut off as the hostile Youkai used some Youjutsu that created a barrier that blocked her path. At that moment as the assailant was preparing to capture her, something fell onto his head and broke.
It was a glass bottle that contained some purple liquid that broke and pulled on top of Youkai's head. Aside from leaking out an odd smell, it covered his body and caused a large amount of hair to immediately grow without even a minute. And Yasaka remembered hearing.
'Ah, so it turned out to be a hair growth solution. Not what I was expecting, I almost thought that would produce a…. Oh, I threw the wrong one. Sorry about that.'
That voice originated from an eight-year-old Hinata, who was standing on a roof with what looked to be a bag which was around her shoulder. It was a weird encounter but she found herself being able to escape and followed behind the Nekomata who ended up saving her life. Leaving behind the hostile Youkai, who after being found and detained was more of a massive hairball than a visible person.
"And so, that's how I met and became friends with Hinata. So, instead of being an interesting story, it turned into a funny one"
Yasaka finished, finding herself laughing at that memory.
"So, she just threw some random concoction she created without considering what would happen. Yeah, based on a lot of the things I heard that sounds like Hinata-san."
"Well, she never did do a single experiment on Sakura-san. Hinata might have been a loose cannon of a witch doctor but pulling a prank on Sakura-san was a life-and-death situation. The same goes for Natsumi-san, but that was because none of us could dream of doing anything to hurt or upset her."
Yasaka stated.
"So, did she ever mention why she kept using the Kyuubi Princess as a test subject."
"Yeah, I learned her family comes from a long time of unique medical practitioners among Youkai and has books that detail the particular composition of other Youkai, Humans, and other supernatural creatures. But, none of them included that of the Kyuubi considering that my family is an important part of Kyoto and Urakyoto. And not a single one of them wanted to attempt to even examine one," Yasaka explained, then laughed a little bit. "So, Hinata was the nutcase who would ignore status and positions for medical development. But, because of that, she turned out to be one of the best doctors around."
"Yeah, she saved and helped us out more times than I could count."
Kensei stated, recalling all the times that Hinata helped him, the first time being when Niðhöggr's miasma damaged his arms, helping heal certain wounds since then, and instructing the Kibou Alliance's medical group. As Yasaka said, Hinata might have been an oddball, but it was because of that that made her a respected doctor and a lifeline for a lot of people who met her.
"After that Hinata became an irreplaceable friend and someone who I could talk to about anything."
Yasaka said, that the last part caused her to remember the time that she went to Hinata after her ex-husband left them behind. It was a sad moment for Yasaka, who was left alone in the mansion, acting as a Queen and mother alone with no one who loved her enough to remain by her side when she needed someone. More so, the person she thought would be with her forever was the one person who had been an additional line of support since the one particular incident that changed her life.
"Well, I'm not alone anymore and Kunou has someone that she loves as much as she does me. And the same thing could be said about me too."
Yasaka stated, finding herself looking straight at Kensei wearing a smile on her face.
There wasn't a single doubt inside Yasaka's mind that Kensei would do whatever it took to ensure Kunou and herself would always remain safe and happy. Someone who made her the happiest woman in the world, removing all of the loneliness she felt over the last fifteen years in just over a year.
"Hm, what's up?"
Kensei asked, finding himself smiling as Yasaka smiled at him.
"Hm, nothing~"
Yasaka replied with a cheerful and loving expression, something which caused his heart to almost skip a beat.
Both of them could do nothing aside from smiling and laughing together as there seemed to be more and more of a peace between them. It was a good and relaxing trip to Okinawa, something that the two found themselves glad that they came here for a couple of days.
"So, we've now been here for three days, and have one more day left."
Kensei stated, with Yasaka remembering that the trip would last for four days.
"Time flies when you're having fun, well whenever I'm around you, it feels almost as if three days feel like a lot longer in comparison. Still, I do wonder how long Hinata intended for me to be like this," Yasaka stated, liking being a teenager because of the freedom she felt but was aware that she needed to return to being an adult. Also, she preferred her more mature and developed adult form compared to her teenage form. "Well, I'm sure that we'll cross that bridge when it comes. So, let's enjoy our third day, then prepare for the fourth day."
"Sure thing. Let's…."
Kensei in that instance felt himself feeling a mysterious presence, his reaction alone was enough to make Yasaka all but realize that there was something wrong.
"What's wrong Kensei?"
Yasaka asked worriedly.
"…."
It didn't take long for Kensei to realize that he was staring right at 'something' whose physical outline could be seen in the daylight. It looked like something closer to a mirage, in particular, 'something' camouflaging itself to appear hidden in the group. But, that wasn't what caught his attention, this 'something' was approaching several children who were playing around with their friends. Kensei didn't want to hesitate in this instance, seeing as it'll turn into a bloodshed if nothing is done.
"Something is here camouflaging itself and approaching children. I'll get it and take it somewhere without people."
Kensei explained as Yasaka immediately got into serious mode and nodded her head in agreement.
Swish!
Kensei didn't hesitate to fly at high speed toward the camouflaged creature, grabbing it by what he thought was its neck and heading straight into the sky. Due to the speed and disturbance that Kensei was flying at, people thought it was a sudden burst of wind that pushed the water. Yasaka in that instance found herself heading in another, but she then started wondering what was happening there.
In the air, Kensei was still flying around above Okinawa, then found himself looking around for an isolated area and sensing the entire place for one with no auras around. It was in that instance that he sensed that there were Youkai hidden in the area, in particular, in the sea. During all this, the camouflaged creature in his grasp struggled to get out of Kensei's grasp. But, his strength was greater than the creature's, but based on his sense of touch alone, he could tell that it had rough and tough skin.
After deciding on a location, Kensei dove straight down the more isolated beach at high speed and managed to head there in almost a couple of seconds. Over the summer in Shiamano, he had gotten used to flying around, but then he couldn't say that he fully mastered it. As a cloud of sand spread around in the air as a cloud, his grip on whatever this camouflaged creature was.
"Alright, what the hell are you?"
Kensei asked, finding himself sending a sharp pulse of Ki throughout its body causing it to react violently.
Reacting to this, the natural camouflaging abilities became disturbed, thus making its physical appearance clearer and clearer until it appeared in his hands. In Kensei's hands, there was a Youkai in the shape of a Humanoid shark without the slightest human characteristic.
"The hell, a Kaisame?"
Kensei stated, tilting his head to the side about this side.
A Kaisame was a kind of Shark-type Youkai that has a humanoid body able to step out of the ocean, but they are also unable to camouflage themselves and would normally remain near the ocean instead of heading further out.
"Yes…I am a…Kaisame."
"…."
Kensei stared straight at the Kaisame as it spoke to him.
And there was one fact that Kensei was well aware of Kaisame aside from their natural habits, however, there's a single thing that they should be incapable of. And that's the fact that these kinds of Youkai don't have the kind of biology that makes it impossible for them to speak, their being able to understand things is one thing, but even that was limited.
"What the fu…?"
"Kensei."
Yasaka called out, appearing near him as a mass of blue flames having teleported straight there.
"Uh, Yasaka have you ever met a Kaisame that can speak?"
"Um, no, Kaisame are unable to…."
"I'm right here."
"What the hell?!"
Yasaka was surprised that the Kaisame could understand their conversation and speak. As the Queen, Yasaka met a lot of Youkai, but there hasn't been a single moment where she heard a Kaisame being able to speak.
"Alright, since you're able to speak, mind telling me why you were around children?"
"I wasn't going to eat them. Our Savior told us to never eat children. I was simply curious about how Humans interacted with one another. I was following an irregular scent and arrived there."
The Kaisame replied, finding them coming close to believing that considering that it didn't appear as if it was lying and seemed eloquent enough to speak without making a mistake. Plus, the Kaisame tend to react and attack through instincts. So, if a normal one ran into a human, even a child, then it would have attacked and consumed it at just a moment's notice without considering the mistakes.
"You're aid?"
Kensei asked, with Yasaka immediately finding herself wondering what it meant and came up with an answer.
"…!"
Yasaka couldn't respond fast enough due to the shock.
But, in that instance, Kensei immediately felt his grip on the Kaisame's being loosened. No, it was better to say that it felt as if his fingers were moved from around the irregular Youkai's neck, then it was floated towards another and was placed gently on the ground.
"Please, I request that you don't be too rough with Kisame."
A familiar voice caught their attention as someone seemed to float towards the ground near where Kisame was put.
"…."
Yasaka found herself glaring at the man who floated on the ground with her fist clenched tightly and shaking.
"Ah, I greet our aid."
"Oh come on, I told you that you didn't need to call me that. Either Kazuo or Doctor."
The man in front of them was Kazuo Enomoto, Yasaka's ex-husband, and Kunou's biological father. A rather youthful-looking brown-haired, hazel-eyed man with his hair slicked back, dressed in a uniform that resembled that of a real doctor. Kensei immediately realized this fact and found himself glaring straight at Kazuo, who continued standing right next to the Kaisame, now named Kisame kneeling in front of him and being told to stand up. More than that, he could tell that the man in front of him wore a defined and almost undetectable presence that he could sense.
Similar to Kuroka and Bikou being unable to sense him because he was better than them at Senjutsu, Kazuo was far superior to him at using Senjutsu.
"Yes, Doctor."
"That's fine. You can return at your discretion, while I continue to…."
Kazuo turned around and noticed Kensei and a familiar-looking person in front of him. He was well aware of who she was, but the thing he wasn't expecting was the fact that she looked like that.
"…."
Kazuo stared at her.
"…."
Yasaka stared back.
"Pft, hahahahahahahahaha!"
Kazuo couldn't help himself from bursting out laughing as he placed a hand at his stomach unable to contain what he was feeling in that instance. And in that moment, Yasaka looked on flustered as she was being laughed at right in that moment.
"Shut up, you telekinetic doctor asshole!"
Yasaka shouted similar to a teenager who was being laughed at while stomping on the ground.
"…."
Kensei was almost unable to way into the conversation as Kazuo laughed without a care in the world and as the teen Yasaka found herself shouting and cursing in response.
"Oh, hahahaha, I'm so sorry. I wasn't expecting to see you as a teenager," Kazuo stated, finding himself wiping away the tears. "Oh, but you trusted Doctor Aozaki again and ended up being turned into a teenager again, didn't you? Oh, I thought that you got used to her tricks and medicines after all this time. Oh, I haven't laughed like that in a while. Ah, it's good to see you're in good health."
"I don't need your damn diagnostics! You're the one who decided to leave!"
"Ah, you're right about that. I'm sorry, it's a habit."
Kazuo stated.
Kensei didn't know what to think about him, he was aware that Kazuo was the person who left Yasaka and Kunou, in addition to the fact that he joined Yami. But, the man didn't seem like a generally bad or mean-spirited person, who was outright to hurt someone. He even spoke about Hinata with proper respect and referred to her as Doctor, as if she were a colleague.
"Oh, so, you're Kensei Amagiri. This is the first time that I've met you without seeing a recording," Kazuo stated, as he respectfully bowed. "My name is Doctor Kazuo Enomoto. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Ah, right. My name is Kensei Amagiri," Kensei replied not knowing what else to say other than that. "So, did you send these modified Youkai here? If so, then you're looking for a fight then."
"Ah, no, that isn't my intention here. You see, the leader of Yami coveted my ability to affect a person's ability to stimulate the natural development of living beings. So, in essence, I can manipulate how things evolve, but even then it was still an incomplete ability that hadn't been mastered. It wasn't even named, so I refer to it as Mutate just to keep it simple enough," Kazuo explained, having no apparent issue in doing such a thing. "And well, how could I say this, he is well…."
"An arrogant asshole who expects everything to go the direction he wants."
Kensei replied without hesitation.
"Exactly," Kazuo stated without shame, showing that he had some distaste for Arata himself. "So, as a test to see the results of the Youkai that he convinced to join Yami and to see whether or not my abilities are the real thing. Well, I do have people of my own, like Kisame who wanted to come and supervise things for me. So, if possible, I would like them to return relatively unharmed. So, I'll be honest and say that a good portion of the Youkai that'll be coming are following Arata's commands and not mine."
"Well, this has to be the most polite and cordial warning that I'm going to be attacked that I ever heard."
Kensei stated, noticing that most of the time the threats that he receives are actual threats without sounding even a little bit polite or kind-hearted.
"…."
Despite this, Yasaka still felt herself feeling hostile towards Kazuo.
It didn't help as one of the traits about being a teenager meant that she was unable to control her emotions and the pent-up feelings that she had towards Kazuo were coming to the surface. Her mature side was telling her to control herself but the teenage side was telling herself to let it all go. And in that instance, Kensei found himself placing a comforting hand on Yasaka's shoulder almost sensing and noticing those building-up feelings.
"It's alright, we'll get through this together. You're not alone anymore and you're never going to be again."
Kensei stated in a strong and comforting tone, something that Yasaka appreciated.
"Thanks, Kensei-kun."
Yasaka replied.
"…."
Noticing this, Kazuo didn't show much of a reaction to the interactions but seemed to fully notice and understand the pain Yasaka felt in that instance. But, the expression didn't show much before a nearby boulder was lifted out of the ground, then approached him. It was then that it was crushed and shifted into a newer shape, resembling an actual chair that he took a seat in. Based on the fact that Yasaka referred to him as a "Telekinetic Asshole Doctor", it meant that his other preference was Telekinesis and likely other abilities like it.
"I won't be participating in this fight. I'm a doctor, not a fighter, of course. So, I don't like fighting unless I have to," Kazuo stated lifting himself in the chair that remained floating at a comfortable enough distance from the oncoming battle. "Also, as a gesture of goodwill."
As that comment left his mouth, Kazuo seemed to have placed a barrier around the area surrounding the battle that was going to be taking place. It wasn't something that was intended to keep them locked inside, instead based on what Kensei could infer it was to keep people from coming near the area and likely even seeing what was happening from a distance. There was no question that Kazuo was concerned about the innocent people who could get caught up in the incident there and that made it difficult to believe he would join Yami who intended to revive Amatsu-Mikaboshi, a Primordial God who intended to return Japan to its original state, nothingness.
"How sweet, alright," in that instance, Kensei covered himself in a bright light, then once it vanished, instead of his swimsuit, he was dressed in his proper combat attire. "Let's get this settled and return to the last of our vacation."
"Alright."
Same as Kensei, Yasaka covered herself in a bright light and found herself dressed in her usual outfit, but was more made for her teenage self's size. Both of them were prepared for the battle that would be happening right then and there against the modified Youkai that had been sent as a trial for the Telekinetic Doctor from Arata. And based on what Kensei could sense there was at least a total of twenty Youkai there, not counting the ones that showed almost no intent on fighting them.
From his hands, Kurogane appeared in his hands, and surrounding Yasaka's hands were the blue flames produced by the Kitsunebi of a Kyuubi. The couple stood side-by-side preparing to face the threat standing right in front of them, to finish things here and return to their couple's vacation.
"Hm, let's see what you're able to do, Kensei Amagiri. I heard that the Primordial God has listed you as the host with the most potential compared to Arata who received divinity from him. And that isn't something that many people in the world could say is a trait they have."
As a doctor, Kazuo found himself the most interested in Kensei, who was the last remaining member of the Amagiri Clan who wasn't corrupted and someone who stood with the most potential as the others that were turned into the mindless monsters he adjusted. And there was also one particular part of him that was interested in Kensei, outside of the perspective of a doctor.
A/N: And there goes the next chapter of DxD – The Last Amagiri, there goes another chapter in this volume and then there are two more until moving on to the next one. It continues with their vacation in Okinawa, with Kensei and Yasaka receiving a call back from Urakyoto, with the teenage Queen wanting to be mischievous. But, now it seems as if there are going to be battles from two different sides concerning the modified Youkai that received Kazuo's treatment through Mutate. He made his appearance in front of his ex-wife after nearly sixteen years and the first thing he did was laugh at her current appearance. XD
I hope that you liked the chapter, until next time.
Kensei's Harem: Alice, Claire, Hisui, Kunou, Yasaka, Lu Lingqi, Sarah, Minako, Koneko, Kuroka, Ravel, Amaterasu, Brynhildr, Rossweisse, Ophis, Misaki.
