The Lord of the Universe
Chapter 85 - Building Relationships
Next day. After yesterday's events, the state of me and my friends in the Machinery universe has been acknowledged by the soldiers and Liyu, but not by Sumiko. Sumiko still doesn't accept my existence here.
At some point, I walked towards my room that uncle had provided. On the way, I accidentally met Liyu who had just climbed the stairs. He looked at me and greeted me.
"Good morning, Brother Nakano." said Liyu,
"Good morning.".
I also talked to him a little. And also me and Liyu have had a good relationship. Yesterday he asked me to practice the match and we trained 30 rounds with the result of me winning all the rounds. I didn't think Liyu had high stamina. As a result of that match in addition to Liyu who lost 30 rounds, we also started to have a good relationship. I think of her as my own sister and I think she also thinks of me as her own sister.
"Oh yeah, where are you going?" ask Liyu, please,
"I? I'm going to the room. I just took a shower." I replied,
"Oh. that's it. Then I'll go take a shower first.".
Liyu ran behind me and turned around. He then waved his hand in the air.
"See you later, Brother Nakano!" he said while yelling at me.
I waved my hand back to him. He also ran to the bathroom. Good boy.
I turned my back and continued walking to my room. But as I flipped, I saw Sumiko and she also saw me. He directly lowered his head and walked hurriedly in the same direction as Liyu. After yesterday's incident, we never spoke again. I had a bad relationship with him.
I sighed and walked to my room.
When I got into the room, I walked towards the bed and immediately lay down on it. Because a lot of things happened the first time I stepped on this universe I forgot my main purpose here. My goal here is to find the next generation of serrated controllers, Inara's own uncle's son, but who? Liyus? There's no way he's. He is good in physical. Then the last one is Sumiko. If it was really her successor controller then it would be difficult especially me and her having a difficult relationship. But there is still a possibility that the successor is not him. Clearly he was his successor, that power was passed down to the first child and as far as I could see Sumiko was the first.
I breathed not knowing what to do next. I can only hope that there is something going on that can build my relationship with Sumiko. I don't expect him to be anything like a future wife or anything, I just need some of his strength.
Wait for... If I take that power, will Sumiko also lose her power? I hope not. If I were told to choose between my power to defeat Wynox or to let this power itself be buried within Sumiko, which would I choose?
I breathe again. I have too many thoughts. I got up from the bed, picked up the jacket I used to wear and walked out of the room. I want to go for a walk for a while.
Suddenly a thick black smoke came out from a building not far from me. The smoke began to fly into the air.
The smoke? It's just a fire, right? I looked around and started to feel strange. The eyes of the people around me were full of fear. I tilted my head and raised my eyebrows slightly. It's quaint... The people here seem scared... Butwhy?
Suddenly I heard a sound like a vehicle that braked long enough. His voice came from the place where the smoke was coming from. I have a bad feeling about this smoke. I jumped on the roof of the house near me and jumped again to another one to get closer to the location where the smoke appeared.
When I arrived, I saw the skull walking with fire enveloping its body. Whatisit? And somewhere else, I saw a team of some kind of firefighter coming. Are they responsible for this incident?
"Yosh you! Let's extinguish this creature with great affection!" said one of the team.
Lovingly... for a monster..? And again it seems he is the leader. Now... how do they cope with the raging monsters?
One of them immediately moved forward quickly. I saw clearly and saw that the boy was spouting fire on both of his legs. The boy advanced quickly and pointed one of his legs at the monster. The kick hit him but didn't give a good result. Then one of his other legs kicked the monster's head and he took off his previous leg. He threw the monster into the air and he flew up and kicked it at one of his team.
The monster leads to a child with golden hair. The boy was preparing for his position and suddenly a kind of sharp fire weapon came from within his two hands. The weapon was like a sickle blade that was inside the legend of the 'Grim Reaper'. The boy thrust it into the monster's body and it disappeared into ashes. Suddenly a girl there said something like a prayer.
"O soul that wanders. I will cleanse you and free you from your suffering... Accell.".
After that everyone on the team said the last words the girl said.
"Accells.".
It seems like in any universe. There must be danger hanging around there huh. Whether it be monsters or humans or any other race, every universe must have its problems. I don't know why, after I thought I was starting to worry about someone.
Mother... are you okay there as the ruler of the new Universe?
I forgot about it and started to focus. There doesn't seem to be any danger around here. All the dangers there may have been a team that will overcome them. After knowing that fact somehow I felt relieved and anxious at the same time.
Wait... If there is no danger anymore..how can I build a relationship with Sumiko? No, wait.is there no other way to establish a good relationship with someone. but. I have to ask the experts and ask her out occasionally. I also don't know what to do after this as well. Rather than being dumped into it I'd better use this opportunity to cement our relationship. He and I never dated again. Yosh! I'm going on a date with one of my future wives right now!
Not in this chapter, okay?
