Later at the night, Ryo laid by Zero Two on the bed, ready to hug her to sleep.

"Darling! You promised to teach me a new way to 'Kiss'!"

As if remembering his promise, Zero Two quickly perked her head toward Ryo in expectations. Making Ryo freeze for a second.

Then he nodded and said, "Darling... I am going to teach you how to do a... French Kiss."

"French Kiss...?"

"Yes. It is a very special type of kiss that I heard of. This kiss is only done between two lovers, In this kiss, we use our tongue to connect each other and kiss each other in a exciting way."

Ryo felt difficulty describing how to French kiss someone. Although they were shown how to reproduce, they were not taught how to kiss or various types of kisses, making Zero two wonder what it was about.

Shaking his head, Ryo looked at Zero Two who was looking back at him excitedly, making him feel a bit nervous. This will be the first time that he will be doing this type of kiss, making him excited and a bit nervous.

"Follow me, Darling."

Ryo said, as he lightly licked his lips and with a slow motion reached out to her lips. Zero Two followed Ryo by licking her lips and reached out to Ryo too.

As their tongue touched, Zero Two and Ryo felt tingling feeling on their tongues. Although the starting was slow and awkward, tongue is said to be one of the most sensitive part of the body. With the Klaxosaur-Hybrid Body, this same 'good' feeling was enhanced, making them move their tongue awkwardly.

Much to astonishment of Ryo, their awkward kiss soon turned into a small brawl of two tongues as Zero Two started to take initiative. It was as if she was natural kisser.

Their mouth became a mess as Ryo, not backing off to Zero Two's advances, making this kissing session into a sloppy mess of saliva.

"Huuu."

Zero Two started to breathe rapidly as kissing for a long time, her body had become a lot sensitive. Her body twitched a few time, making her feel a look at Ryo. Then with a slow action, she pulled his right hand, placing them into her Crotch.

"D-Darling! I am feeling weird here."

Breathing heavily, Zero Two rubbed Ryo's hand in her crotch to relieve herself from the flaming born in her body, only for it to grow stronger, making her look at Ryo in expectation.

Feeling his body grow hotter, Ryo looked at the misty eyes of Zero Two, which were looking back at him with the same expectation, he decided to help her.

-

*Tring*

Waking up to the alarm, Ryo stopped it and opened his eyes slowly.

Soon memories of the previous night flooded in his mind, making him get a bit more sober.

Due to the heat they were in, Ryo was almost not able to control himself. Thankfully he didn't do anything major.

Using his hands, he helped Zero Two feel relief two to three times in a row and after letting her rest and sleep, he had to go to the bathroom to relieve himself. If not for him having strong will power, he would have done something that he really didn't wanted to do.

He waned to wait a few more years for Zero Two to grow. Although their body has grown a lot compared to how their actual age is, he wanted Zero Two to be in her best condition, both mentally and physically.

Sadly this also made him remember something.

{Ryo's Previous life}

[[ Play: Clair De Lune Ethereal Remix with Rain Ambience by Scringus ]]

-

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap* *Tap*

Rain drops slowly poured down on the car window, making Ryo wonder how something as colorless as water could have made the clouds turn dark in the sky. Their trance inducing sound made him go into deep thoughts.

Wiping the foggy glass of the car, Ryo looked out at the busty city with several skyscrapers as various different aerial vehicles traveled over the car or a sort of aerial vehicle he was in himself.

Watching at the busty city, he saw how the people lifelessly walked or traveled to their work with an expressionless face. Most of them having a air filtering mask over their face. Their fate was same. Being trapped in the loop of working for the higher class to earn their livelihood.

The richer got richer and poor got poorer, and it wasn't avoidable. The Higher ups had already predicted that all. At least they were able to stop the monopoly of all the families.

Due to the war, although how many times the government had tried, they knew that the atmosphere was too contaminated. So the richer families got their lungs replaced by nanotech filtering artificial lungs. While the poorer had to wear masks all the time.

As he looked at the lifeless scene for a short time, he thought for himself.

'What is the purpose of my life? After I will give the pendrive to Simmons, there are chances of him trying to kill me. I won't be able to survive if he had planned to kill me.'

Thinking that, Ryo placed his hand over his heart. With the recent technology and nenotech, he was able to insert a huge bomb directly around his heart. Once it stops beating, it will cause a super huge explosion, enough to gain attention of various different organization.

'Otsuki Ryo. What is that you desire? Is it saving her?'

Although being hurt, his feeling for her was still there. He was finding a way to become stronger both physically and economically. And it was impossible. Government was giving him some support from shadows but he knew that once the mess got any worse, they will be the first one to betray him.

He was going out for meeting Simmons, an ally of his who was with him in his fight to deal a huge blow if not destroying the Yokoyama family, one of the largest industrial giant of the District he was living in.

As the rain drizzle down, an unnatural sadness dawned in his mind.

His love, Nana, was actually from the Yokoyama family. A family with huge influence, who would have never allowed a low life like him to even reach out to him. He was like an ant compared to their business empire.

Just when they made their relationship official, the Yokoyama family couldn't stop themselves anymore. They were not going extreme because of their daughter. Nana was the only reason he was still alive.

This hurt him a lot. She kept it all hidden till now. Her background, her actions, her everything that he knew about her and love her came crashing down.

He himself couldn't believe it himself. But, what can he do? His feelings for her was still there and he couldn't stop himself.

'Father. I think that what you said previously was all but true. Love? I do not think I feel it now. Heart-broken? I indeed am. Why didn't she said about her background from the start? Was it just a game for her to be playing with my feeling?'

As soon as their relationship was announced, he was almost killed by some of the students. thankfully with some of his connections and some bribing, he was able to escape and go into hiding.

Hiding for a long time, his place was later raided by some mercenaries. If it was not for him being prepared with countermeasures and various escape paths, he was sure that he would have been killed.

He knew for sure that the Yokoyama had already been keeping tracks on him. They just wanted Ryo to feel a little hope before they crush it.

Thankfully he was able to hack into the cybernet section of the Yokoyama and obtained an important information. The 'Cybernet' something sort of 'Internet' but more like it being mixed with 'Cloud' networking. With that, he was able to hire a super mercenary with some of his connections and obtain a pendrive which contains some evidence of them killing the members of Grigory Family, a family on the same level as Yokoyama family.

The person, Simmons, he was going to meet was the current head of the Grigory family.

-

*Ziuu*

A holographic image appeared in the middle of the room Ryo was in.

In the holograph, Simmons Grigory was sitting on a chair as he looked at Ryo sitting at him. Simmons was fairly young, probably in his early 30-s. A very rare young aged family head. If it was not for him to be a 3rd-Rank mutant, he would not have been able to become a family head easily.

"Hmm. If the information that you gave me is correct, you have my words, I will definitely destroy those bastard Yokoyama-s. How dare they tried to hurt my aunt."

Gripping his chair, the man in front of Ryo replied to him. It was unknown to him what the real feelings of Simmons is, because sometimes the bigger families are a huge mess. With technology, the incest was a thing of past. But Ryo didn't asked anything. He knew his limits.

He was just getting a bit anxious as the Yokoyama might be cooking some stuff up to break him.

-

It's been 4 years, a new was announced to the world which made the already broken Ryo go more sadder. Nana was engaged to a 3rd Rank young man from another family to aid themselves and get an ally in the mess they were in.

Ryo did have to say that Grigory was actually much much more power when they went full on out on Yokoyama. Due to this, Yokoyama had suffered a 10% loss in their economy, which is like several Trillions dollars.

After the news broke, Ryo, who had been living alone, in a house provided to him by Grigory with great protection, had continuous nightmare for several weeks, as his health condition declined.

-

It has been 5 years. Ryo looked at the stary sky. At this point of time, he had given up on living. He had grew numb as his facial features has turned emotionless.

Spreading his hands in the foggy sky without any visible stars, Ryo acted as if he grabbed the stars in his hands. An impossible dream for a guy like him.

"You know, young man, for my benefactor, won't be able to live for longer. I could extend your life using Nanotech but I think it would only prolong your suffering."

A voice of an old man surprised Ryo. Moving his face to the side, he saw an old man with almost all his body parts being made out of metallic structures.

The person in front of him was none other than the grandfather of Simmons.

Staring at him for a long time, Ryo didn't replied.

'Am I still alive at this point?'

Ryo asked himself. Because of the belief set by his father that he will find true love once in his lifetime, he had given his everything to Yokoyama Nana.

'I think I indeed found my love. But it was found only at the wrong time and in the wrong era.'

As a naïve fool, Ryo had developed all his feelings towards Nana. He was not an actual fool. If he knew that Nana was from an influenceable family, he wouldn't even bat an eye to her. But it hurt him a lot when he found out that she might have been only playing with his feelings.

"Young man these days... What was your name... Ah! Ryo. Otsuki Ryo. If I say that I have a way to help you remove all these feelings of sadness, will you agree to it?"

Sitting by his side, the old man looked at the foggy sky. He himself had seen a lot and had suffered the same. Having an influential family means various in-fights for the family head position. It was like a carnage where he could do nothing but see his children kill each other till they become the head.

As the old man said that, Ryo looked at him in a bit of interest.

"I would like to try it."

"Heh. You wouldn't like the technique but still, the effects are impressive."

-

*Boom!*

A huge explosion happened as Ryo with an anxious face ran out of the car by the area of fire.

It has been 6 years. Two years the old man helped Ryo by inserting some nanotech bots which destroyed some part of his brain which could remove the feeling of depression from his mind while not killing him, making him become more lively.

For six whole years, the Grigory and Yokoyama families were on a internal war of some sort. Even when various families were brough in the war, Grigory still shored as a star in dark sky, defeating many of them and showing their poweress. But today was something different.

Today Grigory smelled out the location of the Yokoyama family's daughter and decide to raid it without informing Ryo about their arrangements.

"NANA!"

Shouting out loud, Ryo ran into the burning as if trying to find someone.

-

"Don't be sad, Ryo. *Cough* Please forget about me. Live a normal life."

"DO YOU THINK I WILL BE ABLE TO LIVE A NORMAL LIFE NOW!?"

With an hateful face and an angry face Ryo asked out loudly a question to the reply lady in his embrace. She had shoulder length hair. It would have been romantic scene if not for a few bullet hole on her stomach and legs.

Nana, with an sad face bought her hands to his face and pulled him into a kiss.

But this was only for a second as instead of a normal kiss, Ryo's mouth was covered with blood. Not minding his anger, Nana caressed his face and said, "Yes. My dear Ryo. I believe you could. I had made it so. How do you think that you were able to dive into cybernet and not be caught by my Family? We have a higher rank mutant serving under us who could have easily detected you entering our network..."

Saying that, Nana's voice got slower and slower in the end as she finally stopped saying anything as her body went limp.

Biting his lips, Ryo tried his best to feel the pain that he wanted to experience at that time. For the first time he started to regret having the nanobot removing the part of his brain which was there to make him sad.

With a bit of an angry face, Ryo left Nana's body in the place and left without remorse.

'So what if we couldn't be together? At least you should have given me a peaceful death than to let me live in all the agony, knowing well that all you did was in the end led to your own death and more of my suffering...'

Gritting his teeth, he walked out calmly out of the burning house. He finally understood how Nana used the opportunity to leak a family secret of theirs to help save Ryo and letting him live a safer life, not running away from the Yokoyama family forever. And later she kept releasiing leaks here and there for the Grigory to take and help destroy the family.

'... Nonetheless... Since you did all these for letting me live a safer life, I will live it till the end. I will make it worth your sacrifice.'

Walking calmly into a car, Ryo watched as the house burn down in front of him, removing the existence of the most precious he had after his father. He couldn't understand what he was feelin at the point of time.

Was it sadness? It was long gone. Was it anger? Surely not. Was it the remaining bits of his love? It could be.

'Looks like I will have to talk to the old man. Only he might have the cure to make me feel 'sad' again. And I will have to be on the lookout for a way to maintain my sanity in the world that I will be living in.'

'As our deal is about to over, Grigory family will not back me up anymore... Looks like I will have to take residence in Senator Ronel's shadow. Although the working conditions are ok-ish, at least I will be able to live a 'normal' life...'

'A kiss of... death? Huh. Hehaha'

Touching his lips, Ryo removed the blood over his lips that was there as a remanence of someone. Although he could use it to revive her as a clone. He wanted to have Nana rest in peace.

{Somewhere in another part of the infinteverse}

"No! No! No! No! How can they fail! I am an embodiment of success! How can my plan fail? Wait! Uggh! This again! How long are these bastards going to try control me!? Looks like I will have to go on full on serious. No more play time. Looks like some people need to know their place. Fuck!"

Loud crashing sound could be heard as a red eyed person uses his rage to flare up his aura as it causes earthquake to happen in the whole dimension. If the person was not in an safe dimension, multiple universes would have been destroyed by now.

Past. An important factor which could help one relate to the character they are learning about. I had been thinking about how to introduce Ryo's past to the readers, but I thought that it would be the best time.
