Chapter 206: Unexpected meeting

(Ryoto's pov)

It was the fifth meeting with the Quincies, and I'm not sure if we are progressing. The old man is stubborn like hell, but I think I noticed a slight improvement. It's probably thanks to Jushiro-senpai's negotiation skills and me being quiet.

I was taking a break when Isamu approached me again. We kinda became friends. He is easy to get along with and reminds me of Rito somehow.

"Good work out there, Ryoto."

"I didn't do anything..."

"But you also didn't anger my grandpa like last time, so I would call it an improvement, but I'm here to ask you one thing."

He became shy all of a sudden, and my curiosity was raised.

"What is it? If you want to know my three sizes are-"

"NO!!!" He refused. "I was just wondering since you are Shinigami and you are probably older than you look, I hoped that you... you know... have some advice on women..."

Before, he had my curiosity, but now he's got my attention, and hopefully, with my help, the lucky lady will get his erection.

I'm a poet in the making, if you couldn't tell.

(E/D: Author give him Merlin's Hero Creation skill so that he can make men and women "equal")

"Hoho, you just hit the jackpot by asking me this question," I said with a smug.

"Why? You have centuries of experience?"

"Not even close, but I have a harem."

Isamu looked at me like I was some kind of miracle worker.

"How!?" He asked, awaiting my answer impatiently, but before I could answer, he added something that left me dumbfounded.

"How do you avoid tripping into her and grabbing her butt!!!?"

...

I didn't expect to meet someone with a lucky pervert in this world.

"What should I do?" He asked me.

"Enjoy the view?"

It wasn't an answer he was expecting, and he quickly got red.

"Don't worry, I was joking," I said before Isamu could say anything about my comment before.

"You are in luck since I have experience with your condition."

"Is it a sickness?"

"No, it's the will of the world, so I would advise you to get used to it."

Isamu was waiting for me to say it was a joke, but I was serious. He was ready to despair about his luck, literally.

"But I didn't say that there wasn't any way for you to confess."

He looked at me as if I had become his savior. He doesn't need to know that I didn't succeed yet, but I'm not willing to give up!

(Zangetsu's pov)

I was walking through the empty town on the rainy side, but there was a difference. A subtle one but a difference nonetheless. The rain wasn't as intense as before, and it's undoubtedly why he could hear the first letter of her name, which I still can't believe it.

I was sure, I would bet my hand that Jacob would never go over it, but it looks like time heals all. The question is how big of a scar it'll leave.

It doesn't matter, really, but bigger scars tend to reopen easily at least emotional ones.

As I was taking a walk, I heard a beautiful voice singing. Since it wasn't me who was singing, only one person left.

*Sigh*

I knew that song very well. You'll never walk alone by Elvis Presley. It's her favorite song.

After I found her under a tree with her eyes closed, I sat quietly next to her and didn't let her notice me. She always liked spots like that. When she wants to have some quiet or so, she can sing in peace, she tends to find some tree to sit under. She says nature calms her down.

I like listening to her voice. It was soothing, and it made me feel like I wasn't alone, which is pretty ironic since I'm never alone. I'm part of Jacob the same way he is part of me. Not to mention shortie next to me.

While I enjoy fighting over anything else, moments like these are not terrible.

(Rin's pov)

Today I'm free to do whatever I want, and since Ryoto is busy with his duties today, I'm going to walk around some lower Districts.

I was playing with some kids and sharing candies. Seeing them be happy just because of a small treat made me smile.

I wonder if I'm going to be a mother someday? Having a child wouldn't be that bad, and I know Ryoto would be a wonderful parent. Maybe a little overprotective.

I giggled at my own joke, imagining him as the father of our daughter. I can imagine him saying something like, "You can't have my daughter unless you defeat me". I know that he would do it only to mess with that unlucky guy.

But right now, my first priority is to get stronger. I want to stand next to Ryoto, not behind him after all. But someday...

I was currently in some grassy area. While I was deep in my thoughts, I wondered here, but I noticed I wasn't alone.

Under a tree, sitting, was a figure that had his face hidden by cloth. He was also having his whole body covered in clothes in a way that didn't show even a bit of his skin.

I wondered what he was doing here, but I was not one to pry into others people's business without any reason.

I would leave him alone, but with a corner of my, I caught something red on his clothes.

Blood.

I didn't panic knowing this. I already observed that he was breathing steadily and was just resting. Because I couldn't feel his Reiatsu, he was either very weak and close to death, which I don't think he was because of his steady breathing, or I won't be able to heal him. I learned some healing Kaido from Isane so I could take care of some minor injuries.

I was surprised by my own calmness to someone's injury. It's not my first time seeing blood, but it just reminds me that a lot has changed. It didn't mean that I didn't feel anything. I wanted to help if I could, but I could think clearly.

Fighting for your life really changes people, but I should focus on the person in front of me.

"Excuse me? Are you alright?"

Hearing my voice, I noticed him flinching. He was on guard against me but seeing my Shinigami uniform, he relaxed. It seems that he at least trusted Shinigami.

"Yes, I'm fine." He said while trying to hide the area where the blood was. He wanted me to leave him alone. Maybe it's a regular occurrence that somebody is harming him. I could conclude it from his reactions.

"I can see that you're hurt. I know some healing spells, so let me heal you."

"It won't be necessary." Once again, with a deep voice, he refused, but I won't take no for an answer.

END

(I'm pretty proud of this chapter. For people who pay attention, it will answer some questions about Ryoto's behavior.

Also, I wanted to show that Zangetsu, while different from Ryoto in almost every aspect, is still part of him. In some other chapters, I tried to show it by making Zangetsu care about the mysterious figure in Ryoto's inner world, but this time I also revealed that he can enjoy quiet moments as well, just like Ryoto tends to savor them.)

(E/D: That is all good and all but I still refuse the child and also. Genderbend Rito and add him to Harem.)

(A/N You are just like a dad who tells he doesn't want a dog but after the family gets it he loves it the most out of all of them. In another word, you are just a tsundere. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
