Chapter 111: Two Weeks (2/2)

Right. I didn't try to stop them. It's really my fault, eh?

Haa. Their innocence is scarier than my Mom. I guess I should really have put a little restraint on them.

On that note, our first day at our house ended. My Dad, after hearing what happened, offered me some advice. He still finds it funny that after all the years of me not having any romantic interest, I brought home two extremely beautiful girls at once and only two months after becoming a high school student. If he knew there's four more and that high school is a scam, sending their son to Otherworlds to help the Heroes save a world, his heart will probably give in from the amount of shock or he will just pass it off as my lame joke.

During the night, I granted the girls' wish and went to their rooms. Sandwiching me between them on their futons, the three of us had a very comfortable sleep.

My Mom upon knowing what I did, finally gave up and just sighed before urging us to wake up and prepare for the day.

With this kind of setup, two weeks immediately passed.

My Mom and Dad already got used to the two girls. For them, it's like they gained two new daughters. There were even times where Yuko and Yumiko would help Mom with the household chores and cooking our meals

There was also that day when Mom brought out my photo albums. In one of the albums in which the photos were taken during the timeframe of the blank in my memory, a young Yuko was there with me. I immediately recognized her upon seeing it despite the slight difference between the young and the current her. There were several photos with the two of us but after that part, Yuko seemingly vanished from my life.

My parents found that odd and surprisingly Yuko too. I don't know, maybe my parents' memories about that time were also erased or modified, I should ask the Principal if he's responsible for it, if not then it's probably the one holding that torn page in my memory.

In Yuko's case, that was probably the part where her memories were fabricated.

During the night that day, Yuko talked to me about it and told me how she found it odd that she also couldn't remember taking those photos with me.

Since I promised the Principal not to tell her the secret, I made her believe that it might have something to do with the blank in my memories. With her trust in me, Yuko accepted that explanation.

The Principal said her memories will naturally unseal itself when she reached the necessary strength, but how strong? Transcendent or more than that? I don't know.

At the start of our stay at home, the Kuramoto Household became the talk of the town when their son, which is me, brought home two extremely beautiful girls.

However, with each day that passed, the neighbors slowly got used to Yuko and Yumiko who seldom left my side.

From doing normal things such as shopping, touring the city, trying out every shop in town, going to the amusement park, getting that driver's license. Everything.

My classmates and friends from Middle School also heard the news so they started to try reconnecting to me just to see the two in the rumors and well, because of that, a sudden reunion party for my class in middle school happened.

Since it's something Yuko and Yumiko never experienced, I attended it with them. They became instant celebrities that I thought they might have a hard time dealing with people but yeah, they just stuck to my side during the whole party which earned me more than just envious glares from the boys in class. Even the girls really found it unbelievable. They knew how I was during our middle school days so upon seeing that the rumors about me were true, they all became shocked.

After that reunion, I started ignoring them as we continued fulfilling everything they listed in their to-do list.

When I saw their smiles and the clear enjoyment they're feeling upon doing all the normal things, I also became satisfied and praised myself for bringing them out of that school.

There were some guys who tried to hit on them, however, one glare from either of them was enough for those who had the idea to shake on their knees and tremble in fright.

Yup. They never hesitated to release some kind of aura to stop those kinds of people from approaching them.

During the past two weeks, we already crossed out most of their to-do list. Also, even if we never neglected our training, I estimated that they will achieve their breakthroughs before this vacation of ours ended. Same with mine. By having them as my supply of Flux energy, I slowly push my cultivation near the 3rd realm.

Right now, we're walking along the streets from Yuko's memory.

”This is where I first met you, Dai-kun.”

In an abandoned park with a huge cherry blossom tree in the middle, Yuko pointed at a broken seesaw.

I don't have any recollection of it but I remember this park. It is a park I often played at before that blank in my memory. What she remembered this time was probably a real memory and not fabricated.

”Un. We probably really met here, I often used to play here. To think that this has become abandoned now.”

I nodded and told them what I remembered.

”I never played outside during my childhood. I'm kind of envious of the two of you.”

Yumiko commented when they saw us reminiscing our childhood.

”Then wanna play here? Maybe we can fix some of these.”

With our strength, I might be able to bend that seesaw back in place.

”Wait. Dai-kun.”

Before I even took my first step, Yuko stopped me from entering the park. I looked at her and saw her frowning as she looked on top of the cherry blossom tree.

A few seconds later, my Adaptability was also triggered. A figure in a black cloak with only his eyes visible appeared on top of that tree and following him, several other figures in the same outfit appeared as they started surrounding us.

”Dark Cult?”

Yumiko whispered calmly. These figures weren't a threat but yeah, for them to have found us.

”Most likely.”

Yuko answered her as I felt her using her Foresight to see what awaits ahead.

”I see. It's already two weeks, and they already made a move, eh?”

Since we were surrounded, even though we're calm since none of these guys was a threat, I told them to act scared or restless.

”Three unusual individuals with higher than normal Power Level were found. What should we do?”

The one on top of the tree said, his eyes were glowing with Dark Energy and he had something like a communication equipment in his hand.

Upon reporting to it, a voice responded to him with its order.

”Capture.”

Upon hearing that order, the figures in black cloak all jump at us with their fists coated in Dark Energy.

These guys, they didn't know who they were ordered to capture. At least I got the information that they're checking an individual's Power Level. However, they didn't have any accurate measuring equipment. Maybe temporarily as it is still within the prediction of the Principal on when they will start showing up.
