When the city beca painted with vivid red colors once again, its citizens regained their vitality and could return to their normal lives. Their cheeks were flushed red with so sha, but more importantly, their lives weren't in danger anymore!
As so whispers and talks began to spread throughout the city, Kyoya and Rosa were already past its gates.
On their way back ho, Kyoya was silent. His mind was in turmoil as he couldn't understand how soone could treat their own children or siblings like weapons. Throughout his new life in such a world, Kyoya has gone around many floors and knew that 'bodies' could be a good ingredient for the weapon.
He killed monsters, beasts and humans too!
However, it was far different when it ca to one's children or siblings.
Kyoya couldn't understand it, but his guess was that Rosa's eldest brother is the source of her problems. Because of this man, Rosa stopped at the 20th floor and didn't dare to go up because it was just pointless!
Her brother was stronger and her life was already decided to be a weapon.
There weren't any rumors about their Nure Family internal battle, so this technique must be common practice in their household!
This brought up many disgust out of the husband's heart. He felt like all lightning male believers were bastards and it was his path to punish them all! This kind of feeling fueled his desire to build up the surprise even more.
'The rest of lightning equipnt should be devoured… This lightning resistance might co in handy soon.'
The husband couldn't possibly ask Rosa how much ti there was left for him and what it depended on. He was sure that Nure Household would do their best to achieve the most in the upside down castle, so there was a high chance that they might reach for Rosa's body soon!
'I can't… go against Rosa's elder brother… He's too strong…'
Kyoya found himself in a hard situation that required him to be many floors ahead. He knew that going against eldest brother would be like a suicidal move, but if necessary, then he would do it one hundred percent!
"You are unusually quiet, the husband."
"Ah… No, that's not it. I am just thinking about sothing."
"I guess it has to be the queen? She might be the 19th floor's queen, but the queen is the queen. And what a beauty she was~~ I am cheering on you, the husband."
"I wasn't thinking about Yue. But you are right, Rosa. I should think about the invitation too."
"So what were you thinking about?"
"About you."
"..."
-
Xiaoxiao was on the watch!
It was her turn!
The ladies in the husband's absence were taking turns to protect their household from any bad groups our neighbors! It was Xiaoxiao's turn, her body clad in the familiar red yukata. In front of her eyes was the design window from the ga system.
This design window allowed Xiaoxiao to perfect her technique from the goddess! She was designing her yukata to be more battle-like, so that she could freely fight while having proper defenses and 'passive' attributes.
Those terms were kinda hard for Xiaoxiao, but she liked the fact that her strength could go higher and higher.
"Hmm… Maybe I added too much…"
Xiaoxiao added a lot of fla transparent armors that should appear the mont she summons her equipnt technique. The worst thing was that she added many of those and it looked so weird Xiaoxiao tilted her head while biting her red lips.
It was sort of hard to just turn the yukata into battle equipnt!
"Maybe I should just put everything into passive ability…"
"What kind of guard are you, Xiaoxiao?"
"Ahh! Don't scare like that, Kyoya!"
"A cute guard, haha!"
It seed like the husband's sudden words soothed Xiaoxiao's heart as her freaked out expression turned calm. A smile then replaced it and she welcod back the husband and Rosa!
She got so subrged into her design that the husband could poke her cheeks from the side, but he held himself back and just startled her with his voice. Then, the husband rebuked Xiaoxiao as he was the leader who aid to have the best party.
"A cute guard can only appear to guard sothing within our house."
"How about protecting the bathroom, so that the husband can not peek?"
"That's good idea. Hehe!"
The ladies joked to Kyoya's words causing him to sigh deeply. But he was relieved that Rosa still could be herself despite everything. It wasn't like she knew about Kyoya's sudden finding, but the husband was still worried.
This didn't go unnoticed for Xiaoxiao.
She didn't ask straightaway, but only when Rosa excused herself did Xiaoxiao pat the area next to her! And as Kyoya wanted to have so ti to think about it, he took a seat next to the cute guard and threw his mind back to the past.
So ti passed just like that.
"If it's not sothing deep… then you can tell , Kyoya."
"Ah, you could tell? I guess Rosa could've seen through too…"
At least Rosa had no way of knowing that Kyoya was thinking about her family's sacrificial technique! Kyoya also didn't use the connecting card, so he was safe here! He scratched the back of his hair awkwardly, then decided to share the news with Xiaoxiao.
Just like Xiaoxiao shared the most important part of her life and her desire to find her sister, Kyoya felt like he could share this burden with soone. For him, Xiaoxiao was already like a family.
"So… there is a lightning technique to turn soone into a weapon…"
As Kyoya began to speak with utmost seriousness and worry, Xiaoxioa straightened her posture and listened attentively to his words. It shocked her heart when she learned that Rosa was 'the weapon' and that it was her close family that turned her like that.
Similarly to Kyoya, Xiaoxiao couldn��t understand why soone would treat one's family like that, but it was a matter of different status.
While Xiaoxiao was a villager, Kyoya himself had a normal family, so it was understandable. However, Xiaoxiao had more to say and so she did! Her hands reached to hold the husband's who were a little cold.
Her warm hands imdiately began to perform the magic as Kyoya's eyes shifted to look at her deeply.
"It might be like your power is the omnipotent one as it could find such a secret, but I am sure it is Rosa who opened herself more to you, Kyoya. It's because you have allowed her to feel like a human, like a woman! So don't sulk like that and be yourself… When the ti cos, I will stay by your side and confront the bad noble family."
It was so suicidal for both of them to think about it! But Xiaoxiao cheered the husband and promised to help him despite possessing the deep goal of finding her sister, her only family.
"Cheer up, okay? We can't worsen our party's mood and it might also affect our training. Let's focus on sothing else."
Xiaoxiao did the sa when it ca to Akaro. She focused wholeheartedly on the training and the joy that ca out of life with the husband. RIght now, Kyoya also needed to brighten the mood as much as possible, so Xiaoxiao did as much as she could.
She raised her hand to pat the husband's hair which was done rather roughly. It was filled with Xiaoxiao's usual cheerfulness, though!
That was why Kyoya couldn't stop himself from smiling.
"Thanks Xiaoxiao."
"Mmm… Thanks for sharing it with too…"
"I hope you never leave …"
"Eh?"
Crack!
