Chapter 65: Chapter 65 - Smooth Criminal
A surprise to be sure, But a welcome one after hearing the responses from Kie who blush after saying it while Ryuu fell silent. He didn't expect her to speak that way but doesn't care anymore. Making her happy is all that matters and didn't care if it goes against his morals.
He only smiled giving a light night before turning attention to the frozen using his [ Petrification Gaze ]. They were extremely frightened under the gaze of Ryuu whose eyes seemed to glow in blood soak red.
In a blink of an eye the two faces were grabbed by Ryuu and were dragged through the forest in order for Kie to not see the carnage that soon came.
When he was far enough covered their mouths with blood to stop them from screaming. Ryuu laid their body in a nearby rock as they pleaded with their eyes but it was too late.
"Did you know that being a surgeon also means that you'll know which body induces the most pain?"
He said that made the two terrified and the next minutes to describe what happened was that their flesh was ripped as they pulled apart between their legs.
If they were able to speak then the two would beg him to kill them. Ryuu cleans their corpse before heading back to the lake where Kie dresses herself in her clothes but lets her hair down.
She was in the process of wearing her white apron-like clothes. Ryuu couldn't help but swallow a bit seeing how beautiful she was without the apron and her down.
Kie noticed his arrival and immediately moved her way towards him before embracing him.
"T-Thank you for saving me…"
"No, it's fine I was careless that you had to experience something unpleasant."
Ryuu felt ashamed that he was careless and cursed the one who intervened with his intuition. Kie felt happy being embraced by someone that warms her heart. She still loved her husband but knew it was time to move on like his last wish.
"R-Ryuu…"
She called his name, still nervous but didn't hesitate to give him a quick kiss that soon turned into a make out session, surprising her at how Ryuu moved his tongue with hers. Kie already felt that he might have someone else since her daughter was included and felt a small guilt for stealing him from her.
However, she knew Ryuu was too nice to reject any of them. It was twisted that her mother was sharing the same man but it doesn't matter anymore.
She wants to do everything to help Ryuu in the future and doesn't want to be powerless like earlier. Once their tongue departed leaving a string as they just stared intently with their eyes.
"Kie...you must know that…"
"I know but I don't mind. Just don't dare ignore my needs."
Ryuu smiled at how easily she accepted things and swore to not forget about them. He planned to have some break once they finish Muzan before heading back.
"I will. Also please always let your hair down since you look amazing this way."
Now that he didn't need to hide it complimented her beauty that made Kie smile slightly blushing.
"If you say so, can you tell me about the other woman you have?"
"Well, you will meet them soon. For now let's head back."
Kie wrapped her arms around Ryuu having a blissful smile already forgetting the traumatic experience she had. They soon arrived where the children were playing and greeted their mother.
Nezuko noticed how they were acting rather intimate, which made her jealous and wanted to know what happened.
"Kaa-san, why is your hair down?"
"Fufufu well I decided to let it down to try new things. Why do you think so?"
"I think it's great, Kaa-san!"
"Yeah you look beautiful!"
Tanjiro and Hanako complimented their mother who patted their head. They didn't know what just occurred around them which was good.
"Nii-Nii, Carry me?"
"Sorry, Rokuta, I need to prepare lunch. Be a good boy and wait alright?"
"Alright, Nii-san."
Ryuu patted his head entering their home letting Nezuko have the opportunity to talk with her mother about what she noticed. The children continued to play while Tanjiro trained.
Inside, the two Kamado's were looking at each other with Kie slightly sweating under her daughter's gaze.
"Kaa-san tell me something? Do you like Ryuu-Nii?"
She didn't hesitate to go straight to the point that made Kie more nervous since he needed to tell her children about having a relationship with another man. Kie knew that hiding it when it was obvious would be futile and looked at Nezuko with a loving smile.
"Yes."
A moment of silence came as Nezuko had a wide array of emotions from disappointment, jealousy and sadness that her own mother would fall for the one she liked.
She wanted to be angry at her mother but couldn't. Nezuko soone recalled her father dying word that was for her mother to be happy and find someone else.
Nezuko vaguely knew that her mother didn't want it but everything just happened. She then saw her mother's expression and knew that there's nothing she do.
"It's not fair that you have to say how you feel. I also wanted to be with Ryuu-Nii…."
"Then Kaa-san is willing to share. He told me that there are others and they won't mind having us."
Ryuu had already spoken about them and given their green light as they already know their characters. They wouldn't be this way unless they got to know each other.
Nezuko was silent when she heard her mother and was surprised that their other woman that he has a relationship with. This made her change her mind and doesn't want to think much anymore.
"I knew Ryuu would already have a lover but I didn't want it to be true…..if that is the case then I want to say how I feel!"
Once the mother and daughter ended, Nezuko went to talk with Ryuu who was cooking their lunch and had taken a short break. She took him a few meters away from their home before telling everything how she feels and Ryuu accepted wholeheartedly.
Once lunch ended, Ryuu sat on the porch along with the two lovely women beside him. He planned to bring them tomorrow to the Butterfly Mansion.
[ Side Mission(Accomplished) ]
[ Task: Stop/Kill/Cripple the surrounding Mercenary that had gone rogue.
Reward: Shundō, Kokū Shundō, 2,000 points ]
Ryuu was looking at the panel accepting the requirements and quickly integrated the skills. It took him a split second thanks to his [ High Speed Thought Processing ]
"Why are you smiling, Ryuu-Ni-I mean Ryuu?"
"Did something happen?"
"Yeah, being hugged by two beautiful women would make any man feel blissful."
They smiled before leaning their head on his shoulder watching the children play. Ryuu wanted this peace to last and planned his own place like Asora. Or that one fanfic where the MC made a pantheon of his lovers and made a place called Avalon.
[A/N: "Ascension or journey from world to world" is the title and that is what I plan in this fic. ]
It sounded cliché but set it in order to go on a journey without worrying about his loved one who can't fight.
Moving back to the skills, Ryuu was delighted seeing the description of the skills and the things it could provide in combat.
[ Instant Movement Technique ( Shundō ) ]
[ Description: This is used by concentrating ki(Aura as substitute) into the feet to get from point A to point B in the least amount of steps. The user must hold to the ground with the inside of their feet or they will simply trip. ]
[ Void Instant Movement Technique (Kokū Shundō ) ]
[ Description: Similar to the Instant Movement Technique, this is used by concentrating ki(Aura as Substitute) into the feet to get from point A to point B in the least amount of steps, but allowing the user, in this case, to "kick" on empty air, instead of the ground. ]
It would give more ways when fighting someone in the air even if he could fly was still different when you have something to stand on.
Soon it was nightfall, Ryuu found a familiar scene where Tanjiro brought Coal down the village and hadn't gone home.
'Is Muzan coming? I thought it would be close to the deadline but I guess it's now.'
He murmured under his breath before looking at Kie who was worried for Tanjiro as it was already late and he hadn't returned.
"Kie calm down, Tanjiro-kun would be fine since I've trained him to fight and doubt anyone could beat him."
"Ryuu is right, Kaa-san. I'm sure Nii-chan is alright. Maybe one of the villagers offered to stay since it was already night?"
It's been one day and it was normal for Kie to be worried after what happened to her but Ryuu calms her down with a kiss surprising Nezuko.
"Have you calmed down?"
"Y-Yeah."
"No fair! I also want Kiss!"
Nezuko cried out jealous that her mother made the two chuckle and giggled as Ryuu caressed her cheek and let her have a taste making her moan slightly. It was her first kiss and already felt around from it.
"There? Happy?"
"Very much."
After dinner, the children sleep while Ryuu felt a presence and thought it was Muzan but was surprised by Kie and Nezuko.
"Ryuu if you don't mind us sleeping here with you?"
"I-I want to sleep beside you."
"Hahahah sure come!"
Ryuu opened his arms for them and quickly went by his side. Kie took the right while Nezuko the left. They laid their head on his chest and peacefully slept while Ryuu smiled looking at their sleeping faces.
At midnight, he sent a malicious aura coming closer to their residence and immediately sprung to action. Ryuu quietly moved out of the embrace of the two and headed outside.
He opened the sliding door and saw him walking his way to their home. Ryuu finally meets the progenitor of Demons, Muzan Kibutsuji.
"Jesus, you really look like Michael Jackson."
