Chapter 12: In the hospital: part I
That Yuichi's wish about "learning curses" flew away to a far place.
"..."
Yuichi didn't know what to say.
That golden light was very efficient, too efficient for his own good.
Maybe I should keep quiet?
What a surprise this time.
Yuichi put that concern aside for later.
Hopefully it won't be such a bad experience.
...
..
.
The relationship between Yuichi and the stone-shaped woman had progressed by leaps and bounds.
There weren't many things Yuichi could do while he was pretending to pass out, so his best option was to receive "Sermons" from the woman.
The first sermon he received was something called "common sense", with a dose of "don't do stupid things" and for dessert "heroes die very young".
In short, his relationship with the woman improved in a few hours.
...
Although the woman seemed stern, a feeling of nostalgia hit her hard.
During her youth she was a suicidal madwoman.
After the destruction of her Empire and the death of her entire family, her mind was a bit shattered, well, very shattered.
That caused her to wander through space, challenging powerful existences, invading sacred grounds of certain races, kidnapping empresses and princesses were also her favorite things even though she had no use for them.
Her luck was too good and she always somehow survived, even when she was relentlessly pursued, no one could touch her.
What Yuichi did, reminded her of her early youthful and crazy days, without fear of imminent death, something inside her slowly awakened, that was the same feeling she experienced in her youth, a tempting feeling.
She wondered if Yuichi liked that kind of thing too.
They were partners, joys should be shared between good friends!
The woman decided to take Yuichi on an adventure.
Without realizing it, Yuichi shot himself many times in the same foot that same day.
...

.
Saki Yoshida was also in the hospital.
Although she wasn't hurt, the shock of seeing a truck coming directly at her was harsh.
But, precisely, she was also worried about that man who saved her.
She was aware of how miserable her life was, she had no friends and was ignored.
Her mother had to work for a long time and they usually didn't talk more than necessary.
Also, she never received a helping hand when she was in trouble.
Her self-esteem plummeted over the years, and she just decided that tomorrow she would change her haircut and she would have to adapt to fashion.
She was even tempted to change schools and start over.
But today those plans disappeared from her head.
Saki decided that she first had to meet the person who saved her.
No, she would first have to make sure that person was still alive.
...
..
.
After being scolded for ten minutes, Yuichi had to learn all kinds of magic (although he could only learn the theory given the circumstances).
Abjuration, Animancy, Conjuration, Divination, Nature, Necromancy and Transmutation, the woman in stone form taught Yuichi all the basic subdivisions of magic.
Although it was only "basic" knowledge by that woman's standards, many experienced wizards would cry themselves to sleep, after all, the woman's words were very confusing especially for a beginner.
However, Yuichi absorbed everything like a sponge, he didn't know how good his own talent was, but it should be good, right?
It was 11 o'clock in the morning, Yuichi's body was attached to all kinds of life support devices.
The medical sector was advanced in Japan and Yuichi was tempted to borrow some things.
Yuichi saw his body, it was an exaggerated image, his body looked like a machine with so many cables connected, but a man's life was too valuable and there were certain protocols that were mandatory.
Yuichi stopped counting the number of "Sermons" he received from the woman and decided to open his eyes.
...
..
.
It was 3 in the afternoon.
Why is there a fucking Ministry of Magic!?, Yuichi complained in his mind.
Yuichi knew that this was normal, no one would feel safe if some "Witches" were free and unrestricted roaming the world.
After exhaustive medical checkups, Yuichi was questioned by the "Ministry of Magic", the inspector swallowed his story.
And now they were looking for said reckless "Witch" who dared to give a magical artifact to a man without the mandatory requirements approved by the ministry.
Although the sanctions would be less harsh since her own imprudence saved said man.
The main culprit, the truck, had no driver and was being investigated.
In general, the greatest caution and confidentiality is taken
At 3:30 Yuichi was left alone in the room.
Yuichi sighed lightly and stared up at the neat ceiling.
After a few minutes the door opened, three women entered.
One of the women was the nurse who took care of him for a few hours, the second woman had short black hair.
Her eyes were red and she was crying.
Takeda Kotone.
The last woman was in worse condition.
"Ni-san"
"..."
Takeda Ayane wept copiously hugging Yuichi.
"...", the nurse had a stiff smile as she watched the scene.
"Aniki", Takeda Kotone didn't hold back too much and also hugged Yuichi.
"...", the nurse also wanted to cry, she had a feeling that she would be fired, it was good that there were no cameras here.
Yuichi took a long time to comfort his two sisters.
The nurse stepped back to give Yuichi and his sisters some space.
Meanwhile, his mother was returning from abroad and her flight was delayed for a long time.
"Ni-san, I was so afraid of losing you...", Ayane gently clung to Yuichi.
During the last few hours Ayane fainted more than once after learning that Yuichi had an accident.
On the other hand, Kotone felt very guilty.
If only I hadn't told Aniki to get out of his room and make friends, Kotone wanted to swallow her own words.
Yuichi was very embarrassed and his guilt hurt a little.
"Look at me, I'm fine. I forgot to tell you that a "Witch" gave me a protective amulet, I wouldn't risk doing something so dangerous if I wasn't sure", Yuichi rubbed Ayane and Kotone's head to calm their doubts.
"A witch? When did you meet a witch, Aniki?", Kotone asked as she secretly inspected Yuichi's body.
Even if the doctor told her that her brother was fine, two checkups wouldn't hurt.
"..."
Yuichi looked healthier than a few hours ago and Kotone breathed a sigh of relief.
Ayane had already inspected Yuichi's body while she was crying copiously, aside from his tired appearance, Yuichi was in perfect shape.
"It's a long story...", Yuichi said with a stiff smile.
"Ni-san, we must thank your savior", Ayane was in Dere Dere mode, and her Tsundere appearance was gone, the rest of things didn't bother her as long as her brother was alright.
Kotone also wanted to ask him the reason for the crash, she saw many policemen on the way here and it worried her a lot.
Even as a relative of the victim they did not want to tell her anything too confidential.
Since she was no longer crying, Ayane became aware of her own thirst.
She had cried for a long time and it was a miracle that she hadn't dehydrated.
They continued to talk and Yuichi avoided the problem for the time being.
Ayane couldn't bear her thirst and went to buy some water, leaving Yuichi and Kotone in the room.
"Aniki, where did you go this morning?", after checking that her brother was perfectly fine, Kotone felt aggrieved.
Why?
Yuichi had a deeply ingrained scent, the scent of a woman.
No, to be more exact, the smell of two different women.
Kotone was right, that female scent was Saki's, after Yuichi absorbed a bit of Saki's "Fate", it was the same as absorbing Saki's negative essence, it could be considered a very intimate moment, in this case, the smell was almost imperceptible.
But who was Kotone?
A persevering woman who knew every detail about Yuichi.
The other smell was caused by the woman in stone form, the woman was doing it on purpose.
"Have you been with a woman?", Kotone asked slowly.
Kotone was a bit annoyed when she saw that Yuichi didn't say anything.
She decided to teach him a lesson.
"Aniki, I'm really thirsty too", Kotone licked her lips as she smiled at Yuichi.
They wouldn't be alone for long, but she couldn't bear it, after experiencing "that" in the morning, her body reacted subconsciously to Yuichi's presence.
Her hand moved in Yuichi's direction, she gently gave his cock a squeeze.
"...", Yūichi.
