Chapter 127 - Irina Shidou (2/2)

A gentle wave of energy left her body and entered Kiba, beginning to heal him.

Kiba could feel a soothing feeling washing over her body, relaxing it as he felt the pain vanishing. With tears still evident in his eyes, he looked at her supposedly master. The one he never acknowledged. When he met her a week ago, all he wanted was to learn swordsmanship from her. But due to the trust issues, he never acknowledged her as his master - same with Rias.

But now, seeing the same woman, who he never trusted, saving him and caring for him, he could not help but feel warm - something that he has long forgotten.

”Thank you...” a small voice of gratitude left his mouth. He was really grateful for her saving him. At the same time, he felt guilty and shame for even suspecting her and not giving her his trust. Even though she was his mentor.

Gently ċȧrėssing his head, Shizuku smiled, ”You should rest, Kiba-chan. Leave everything to master, okay?”

Kiba could only nod at his master's words and stood behind her.

Even in Arifureta's universe, when they were summoned, she might be the most sensible after Hajime. And now, many years have been passed since then, though she still contained her childish innocence and still would act like a mother some times, she was completely mȧturėd.

After leaving with other girls, who were from the cultivation world, she was quite obvious of the fact that only power can help you. Things such as justice never existed, only power. If only her friend Kaouki was able to see it.

Anyway, she was mȧturėd and was not new to killing. In ATG verse, she has killed many people, after all.

”You have quite guts to try to kill my disciple, girl.” and it seems like she was catching Wang Lei's, Xuanyin's, and Caiyi's arrogancy.

”Stay out of my way, or Onee-san will have to eat you too~,” back to her playful voice, the woman said. Even though she was cautious, she still did not show it on her face.

Shizuku just coldly looked at her, one hand reaching the hilt of <Murasame>.

Seeing it, the woman took a defensive stand. But all of it was for naught when Shizuku, without anyone present registering it, slashed her sword.

”Let's go, Kiba-chan. Wang Lei should be waiting for us. It's breakfast time, after all.” she said before taking Kiba's hand and started to walk towards the Himejima state.

”But...” Kiba wanted to ask about the woman, but he got his answer the next second. With his eyes filled with astonishment, he saw a long ravine stretching at his back, all the way to the horizon with no end.

He could literally see lava down there! 'What the fuċk!?' was the only thought inside his mind. She literally almost destroyed the planet with her swing.

”Hm, this world's laws are quite weak... even with my holding most of my powers, I almost accidentally bisected the planet. It seems like I need more training.” Shizuku said, nodding as she continued her walk. With his mouth open in 'O' shaped, Kiba could only silently follow his master.

---

”What the fuċk?! What is she?! Even Onii-sama can't do that!” Rias shouted as she looked at the massive ravine down in the jungle.

She was standing in the air, with Wang Lei, Akeno and Shuri, Nekomata sisters, and Grayfia. All of them had their eyes opened to the extreme.

Just one slash, one slash was enough to almost destroy the planet... then what would a full-powered one was like? Destroying the Universe?! The whole concept was new to them.

”Hai~, if I did not stop the slash, then it would have destroyed the echo system...” Wang Lei said before waving his hand and using <Time Scripture> to return the place back to normal. It's a good thing that he built a massive barrier around the area, or it would have been devastating.

”Let's go back, I am hungry.” Wang Lei said before leaving with the astonished faces of the girls. The other reason being that he had promised to go out with Lavinia today. It was his first date after being reincarnated, he was quite excited about it.

The concept of date did not exist in ATG, while girls from Arifureta, mainly Shizuku, never asked for one as she would normally be busy with her household.

But here was different, he could go on as many dates as he wanted with girls. He was definitely thinking of going to date with every girl.

'Should I use shadow clones?... Nah, it just does not sit well. But, am I forgetting something?' he thought before leaving with everyone while humming a song. It was his first date, after all.

”Achoo!” a young man with silver hair sneezed as his finger kept on tapping on his keyboard as different codes of different High-Level Language passes in front of his screen.

”Damn you, Wang Lei! That bastard, did he finally remembered that he came with another person in this world?” the silver-haired man said, but his finger did not slow for even a second.

”Haa~, I am tired. If only Kaori was here...” he thought before looking at his behind, to the uninvited guest sitting there and watching TV.

”Can you not enter my house without my permission, Irina? It is quite annoying for me to take care of another tenant, who I do not even know.”

With annoyance laced in his voice, Hajime said. He had met her on one of his business trips to England. Even though he had the powers to change the very direction of the world with his creations, he did not.

First, he has not completely got his powers. Second, he had close to no knowledge of the superpowers of this world. He did not know what was the level cap of this world. Third, he knew that superpowers were trying hard to hide the existence of it from normal humans, so he also did not want their attention by creating some overly powerful gadgets. Anyway, this world was going to come under them at one point or another.

”How can you say that, Hajime-san?! You will break my heart! Also, I have told you that I have been ȧssigned by the church to follow you; since you already know that, I can just stay by your side. I can easily spy on you that way!” she said, quite proud of herself.

Hajime wanted to smack her head but controlled himself. In the first place, he could only blame himself for letting the church know about his existence. He just could not hold his curiosity when he saw a flying black crow or was it a fallen angel?

Thinking that he finally came in contact with the supernatural, he captured him and started to tor-I mean, ask him some questions. It was then he met her, Irina Shidou, the cheerful and spirited girl... and annoying.

He saw her using something Excalibur, so he created an exact copy of it. It was even better than the original. He was a creator of different top-class weapons, after all. Creating a sword was not that hard for him.

After that, the church sent many different people to try to capture him; he even met angels. But after they found out that none came out alive, even four paired winged angels, they started a pacifist approach. And the present was the result of that.

”How many times am I supposed to tell you that I will not join the church?”

”Then I will not leave either! Not until you follow me back, or they call me back!” Irina said before pouting and continuing watching anime on the TV.

Hajime wanted to shoot a bullet through her head but controlled the urge. Shaking his head, he went back to the computer and again started typing on it.

***

AN: Before you guys say anything, you can think of it as the church has sent her because they knew that Hajime would not kill her or attack her. I know she is a child right now. But you can think of it as it is part of her training.

Or do you guys want a whole chapter of BS to justify it?
