Chapter 8: Life 8: Retail industry Investment? Monsters Lurking!!
The Next Day:
After Furuichi had woken up he headed to the bathroom he had a shower and washed himself, brushed his teeth before exiting with a white bath robe on his body.
He then headed off to the kitchen as to make breakfast and have some toast, eggs, mushrooms, etc. And after having finished making the breakfast he began eating in a eloquent and calm manner, but the speed at which he was consuming the food was extremely fast as if someone would take his food if he didn't eat faster than the speed of Light.
Seeing this Shiori approached him with her robotic body, as she watched her Master eat his breakfast, as if the sight of him wolfing down food was an incredibly fantastic sight to the eyes.
After another ten minutes had gone by, Furuichi had finished his breakfast as he wiped his mouth before turning his head towards Shiori, as he said.
"Shiori, can you help me look for a bigger house and somewhere kind of secluded, so that we can carry on investing in companies while I continue on being a superhero in peace."
"... Sure Master... Looking through the area I have found several mansions that are within secluded areas away from society meaning we can continue with our work without any disturbances and I can finally upgrade myself."
"A location that I have my mind on is Blue Dragon Lake, can you check there for me Shiori?"
"Sure Master... *Ding... I've found a mansion within Blue Dragon Lake and it seems the area is free from the public and it's also quite big and quiet around them areas."
"It seems that not many people live with Blue Dragon Lake surprisingly, *Ding... Wait no one lives there other than some people owning some properties there."
"And we do have the money to buy the house, Master what do you say?"
"Sure, as long as it's quiet and is big enough I'm okay with it Shiori-chan."
"Mou, master you're making me embarrassed..."
Said Shiori as her spherical head began blushing into a light red. As she moved about wildly profusely suffering from embarrassment.
After this Furuichi grabbed up Shiori-chan's little body as he took her to the living room, as he wanted to play some videogames, having not played for a while.
He turned on the CPS (Couch Potato Station) 5 as he loaded in Dra'Goon Bell Zetto: Fighters, instantly the iconic theme song began playing as he began choosing his favourite character until Shiori suddenly tugged at his trousers in hopes of getting his attention and she succeeded.
As Furuichi turned his head down in wonder if what Shiori wanted to say, "What is it, Shi-chan?"
"Master why are you playing it like this for, why don't you use me instead...!"
Said Shiori as she got angry seeing that her master seemed far more interested in playing Dra'Goon Bell Zetto: Fighters than paying her any attention.
"What do you mean about using you instead Shiori?"
"Have you forgotten already, it seems you've forgotten but when you created me you made me able to tap into other electronics and also make your viewing experiences luxurious and very realistic."
"Here I'll show you."
After that Shiori merely touched the CPS 5 as suddenly the whole world around me changed and I no longer had my controller within my hand, rather I was in a desert wasteland as I looked down I saw in front of me was a flame haired male crossing his arms as he began grunting, "Hmmph, when will we begin Carroto."
'Carroto, wait isn't that Dra'Goon Bell Zetto's main protagonist, why is he calling me that, and isn't that, yes that that's Vegetables-Sama, the crown prince of Planet Vegetables.'
'Could it be that Shiori made my game too realistic.'
And after that I heard a "three, two, and one let's begin the fight...GOO!"
As if that was confirmation Vegetables rushed at me from below as I was sent back with one blow, yes with one blow I was simply no match for this monster, but my body didn't gain that much damage as I looked up seeing only 2% of my health was gone.
But my body was fine as it seemed that both him and me were of equal strengths, as he came hurling down at me from the sky, seeing this I wanted to dodge as subconsciously my body propelled myself upwards to the right successfully dodging Veggies punch.
"WHOOSH!!"
Came the sound as from behind me Veggies appeared at this point I knew I couldn't block as subconsciously once again my body went into a stance as my mind was telling me to push out my palm and catch Veggies punch.
"BOOOM!!"
"CLASSHHH!!"
Echoed the sounds as I did just that and I clenched on hard before grabbing his forearm and then I began smacking him from left to right upon the ground causing blood to appear in his mouth as he said, "Damn it Carroto you forced me to do this."
As suddenly he let out a massive burst of energy causing me to fall back into the ground skimming my body multiple times as my health bar just went 66% with that one attack and as I was struggling to get Veggies appeared with a vein filled face as with a headbutt I was knocked back down again as he grabbed my neck before flying through the mountains with my face feeling the tormented grounds power.
Blood, blood, and blood formed as I felt immense pain as a red critical sign appeared in my vision my health it seems reached 22% and I couldn't do anything he was too skilled and read all my moves before he flew up and chucked me to the ground.
As he did this I heard a sound in the distance. "GAAAARRRLLLIIICCC AND GIIINNGGEEERR GUNN!!"
As the last words I heard were 'Garlic and Ginger Gun' I blanked out as the surroundings changed before I heard a "K...O...!!"
At that moment I was back in my living room sitting on the sofa as my controller was in my hand my body wasn't damaged in the least, it was all just a game.
"Shiori, What just happened!!??"
"Well Master, I thought that you'd like to have an immersive experience so I linked your mind into the game causing you to feel lifelike sensations this is why what you faced just now felt so real, and in this way, you can also learn a few martial arts to protect yourself when your powers are away."
———_______———
"Shiori-chan can you check the news agencies and see if anything new has happened."
Shiori looked through the internet as she found an article about 'Akuma' done by a woman that Furuichi found familiar.
"That face yeah I'm sure about it's that reporter that I met when I saved the people from a burning building if I'm not wrong Shiori show me her info."
[Name]: Nagasawa Shiina
[Sex]: Female
[Height]: 1.78 Metres
[Age]: 28 years old
After reading through her bio I found that she was one of the most successful journalists in the industry as she risked her life countless times to get the correct information and expose corruption and things like that.
She really is fierce even when a killer was sent after her she continued her job and in the end she turned the tables on the killer sending him to jail, bloody hell she was one devil of a woman.
It seems that Nagasawa had found some type of animal that had special powers but she didn't have enough evidence to prove it, and I wanted to test whether there really was another species on this planet.
As I looked at the picture it was that of a cat though it looked demonic as it exuded out a savage disposition unlike any other frightening me a little thinking how on earth one took a picture like this admiring the woman's guts of even doing this.
"Shiori can you give her location to me as it's time to begin my fighting with the causes of evil once again."
"Sure Master, remember when I said I would make you a communication's ring, well I've made it here try it on."
As Shiori-chan handed me a black ring outlined with a red light as it instantly connected to my mind the moment I put it on, it felt amazing as if I could control all the electronics within the house I felt as if I could do anything though I snapped out of this delusion shortly after.
"Thank you, I don't know what to say but thank you Shiori, I love you."
"Master, Shiori loves you too..."
As the robot sent out waves of pink in her embarrassment as Furuichi grabbed her and gave her a quick peck embarrassing her even more.
After this he took off his clothes as he quickly turned his Henshin Bracelet, before putting his right hand into the air slanted as he brought it down before putting both hands on his left and finally he brought his hands to waist saying the iconic words, "HenShin!!"
And instantly engulfed by a wave of light Furuichi had morphed into his alter-ego 'Akuma.'
After this he picked up a Demon fruit from his bracelet before consuming it, and instantly he gained his ability it seems that today he had gained the ability of Pyrokinesis as his hands radiated off steam.
And his blood boiled in this extreme heat causing his mouth to let off waves of heat. After this Furuichi headed to his window before he jumped out and after that with a quick boost of fire coming out of his feet he headed towards Nagasawa Shiina-san.
"Why did master undress in front of me its making me feel really weird inside, and why did he use the window when he could've just used the door?"
....
"I think I'm nearly there!"
Exclaimed Furuichi as the armour clad high schooler made twists and turns within the air as fire propelled out from his legs and arms causing him to boost to any direction he wanted to go to.
It seems that Nagasawa Shiina-san's apartment was next to Kurama High, as I flew past my school with a torrent of fire surrounding me, I tried to be low-key as I made Shiori turn off all electronics within my area so I wouldn't be filmed though I'm pretty sure someone had seen me flying past their house.
It seems that Nagasawa Shiina-san's apartment was on the 12th floor of the Seikatsu Building, as I headed towards the balcony of her apartment, "Plop!"
And I was on the balcony as I took back my flames, I tried to land discreetly though I don't know if it was stealthy at all as I looked through the windows in order to see if anyone was inside.
The lights were lit fully as the TV was also on about Akuma being this mysterious saviour of humanity you know the usual, and I saw a leather sofa in front.
And it seemed that the balcony door wasn't closed as I went in I heard some noise of running water echoing it seems that Nagasawa was having a shower, I looked around before I plopped myself on the sofa as I began my wait for her to come out.
And after a while of patiently waiting indeed the water had stopped as the bathrooms handle was pulled upon, Nagasawa was wearing a bathrobe as she washed her hair with a black towel, however she saw a long and ghastly figure of a shadow within the living room as she began screaming, in fear.
Seeing this Furuichi stood up as he brought his finger to his mouth as if to say 'quiet down will you' as she saw the dark figures appearance properly she remembered that this was 'Akuma' the hero that she'd interviewed.
Even though she knew it was Akuma she was still a bit tensed as she leaned against the nearby table as she looked towards Akuma.
Furuichi seeing this put his hands up as he said, "Calm down... I come in peace."
After Nagasawa had indeed calmed down I waved to her to sit down on the sofa, as she moved towards me and sat down she was away from me by half a metre on the sofa as she looked at me cautiously.
After that Nagasawa moved her hands to the table as she wanted to seemingly take notes but before she could Akuma stopped her as he said, "It's useless, you can't record our conversation Nagasawa Shiina-san."
"*Sigh... Fine now let go of my hand."
And so I let her hand go as she turned to me, "Answer a few questions for me will you Shiina-san."
This was a surprise to her as normally she was the one giving questions but it seemed that their roles were reversed, she couldn't help widen her eyebrows as she stared at the man clad in armour.
"Fine... What's your question."
"That picture that you took of that demonic and savage cat, where did you find the creature."
"I'll tell you everything you want to hear after I've changed Akuma-sama."
