I sighed internally when I felt that my body could not move since Mikumo's Ki had surrounded my body.
I put up no resistance against the restraints as despite how uncomfortable it is to not be able to move my body, Mikumo showed no hostility, although if I were a woman and she was a man this would be terrifying.
"I was hoping you would at least try to fight" - Mikumo raised an eyebrow.
"I told you, I don't want to fight with you since I have deep respect for you" - I smiled wryly.
To prevent Mikumo's interest in me from diminishing, I circulated Anti-Rasen to weaken Mikumo's Ki and then used Rasen to break the restrictions she placed on me.
Anti-Rasen prevents evolution and weakens energy, Rasen constantly evolves as she breaks every limitation. Together, these two energies can counteract almost all Ki-based techniques.
Mikumo opened her eyes showing surprise, but more than anything, expectation. - "This is interesting"
"I need to think about what you said" - I spoke with a bit of discomfort and I got up to leave even though this is my room.
Mikumo also stood in front of me preventing me from leaving the room.
Since I do not have a complex with my height I did not increase it with my shape-shifting abilities and I have stayed at a meter with 77 centimeters (5.81 feet). Mikumo is one meter eighty centimeters tall (5.91 feet) so it is the first time I have seen a woman look up to look into her eyes, but that did not matter to me, what caught my attention the most was that her presence was growing as if she was trying to intimidate me.
I smiled wryly at the situation. - "From another point of view you seem like a woman trying to take advantage of a teenager"
Mikumo's Ki increased filling the entire room, but thanks to her control over her Ki, the people outside this room have not been able to feel the shock. - "I will do whatever it takes to meet my goals"
Although Mikumo is beautiful and I want to add her to my harem, the idea of being abused by a woman gives me a bad taste in my mouth.
"First I want to hear why you do this" - I frowned showing that I feel confused with the situation.
I understand what Mikumo said about wanting an heir with her own blood plus her current attitude shows that she wishes to have my son, the problem is that even with the temporary plot armor that I have this is too absurd and convenient which I find suspicious.
"It's very simple" - Mikumo showed a serene expression, but I could feel the despair and anxiety that were eating into her mind. - "I'm running out of time"
It took me a moment to understand what she meant. Even though Mikumo maintains a body and energy on the cusp of her life, she is not immortal.
Time is a terrifying enemy as you cannot defeat it with willpower, even if Mikumo has extended her lifespan by even surpassing Hayato in terms of vitality, she will not be able to do this forever.
"My body has already started to age as a normal person would, I have been keeping my body in the most appropriate state to generate an heir for decades, but in 5 years I will stop being at my best, in 10 years I will not have the best age to have a child, and in 12 years I will begin to weaken "- Mikumo explained coldly, but I can feel her fear, not a fear of death or time, but fear of not begetting a suitable heir.
I have heard of martial arts clans with strange customs, perhaps she received a teaching where from a certain age the creation of a worthy heir is more important than her own life.
I have no idea and frankly, I don't care, I just know that I want this woman in my harem and I don't care what I have to do to get her.
I showed an expression of consideration and concern, but not something born of affection but of respect.
I walked over to Mikumo and took her hand. She showed no resistance and she only looked at my actions with almost imperceptible curiosity, she is good at hiding her emotions, but I can see people's fears and desires thanks to my Madness.
When I held Mikumo's hand I was surprised that she had the softest skin I have ever touched, it is even softer than the brats that harass me, she takes great care of her body.
I accumulated a decent amount of life energy in my body and using Hamon I transferred that vitality to Mikumo.
My body consumes a lot of nutrients, but Madness fuels two specific things, emotions and vitality.
Madness not only eats bodies for his strange hobby of chewing on people's bones and flesh, the vitality in the cells is what allows him to use his corruption and density shifting abilities at full power, in fact, lately Madness developed a taste for eating to people with Ki while they are alive.
Madness can not only store souls, it can also use black blood as a storage battery for life energy so currently a single drop of my blood is enough to make a 90-year-old man on his deathbed rejuvenate 40 years. It amazes me that my humanity doesn't keep going down.
Mikumo closed her eyes and allowed life energy to flow through her body. Although there were no changes to her body, she reduced the constant wear and tear on her Ki to keep her cells young, allowing Mikumo to use even more Ki during combat.
Maybe if I take it upon myself to give her a constant amount of vitality she will be able to break her current level and be on the same level as Hayato, that would be interesting.
After I gave Mikumo enough energy for her to have an additional 20 years of lifespan, I pretended to feel dizzy and tired, making the color of my face turn a bit pale while my heart rate decreased.
I took a step back and took a deep breath and then looked at Mikumo who was looking at me with a complex mix of emotions.
Now the question is what will Mikumo do.
Will she see me as a gold mine that she must monopolize taking advantage of the fact that I am weak?
Will she lose rationality in the face of short-term benefit and force me to give her all my life energy?
Will she feel sincere gratitude towards me which will allow me to win her heart completely?
Mikumo is ambitious and cunning but has the traits of being a traditionally-minded martial artist so her decisions will conflict between her wishes and her beliefs.
Mikumo sighed and walked over to me, showing unusual care she helped me sit down, then made tea and carefully poured me a cup. - "Giving your life force to a person who you do not know if he is an ally or an enemy can only be considered stupid since you will be weak for a long time and you do not know if you will be attacked"
"Maybe I'm naive or stupid, but I can't imagine that someone with a genuine dedication to martial arts like you could use despicable tricks" - I smiled wryly as if trying to hide my fatigue. - "Besides, it would go against my beliefs not to help a person who has chosen to show me sincerity"
For a martial artist, it is taboo to reveal his own weakness so that her telling me about her health is a show of sincerity, besides that if Mikumo made a bad choice there are several chemical bombs in this place and Navi was ready to call Sayo and the girls to help me kill her, but I judged Mikumo correctly so everything worked out.
Mikumo showed no reaction and sat in front of me while I maintained the appearance of weakness.
Even if she offered a tempting deal, a relationship based on benefits is trustworthy but not what I am looking for, I want true feelings of attachment, dependency, and obsession that ensure that even if I lose my abilities and fall into a vegetative state, my lovers will they will keep by my side.
We were both silent for a long time until Mikumo stood up and materialized a Ki covering that covered the entire room isolating us from external noise and preventing anyone from entering the room.
In an almost mechanical and non-erotic way she began to undress, but the fact that such an exceptional woman undressed for me at her expense was good for my ego.
Her clothes didn't help to hide her beautiful shapely figure, but when her clothes were removed I thought all this stupid acting was worth it as those big breasts with pink nipples were really tempting.
Instead of acting like a shy guy with no experience with women, I frowned as my gaze showed subtle signs of arousal and lust. - "I told you that I need to think about it"
"What you gave me was not just a few more years of life, but hope" - Mikumo finished undressing and walked towards me without trying to hide the region of her devoid of pubic hair, not bad. - "I always regretted that my lack of talent prevented me from reaching a higher level due to lack of time, if my innate talent were greater or if I had more time to train I would have equaled or surpassed Hayato, which was always a scar on my pride…"
Mikumo came in front of me and leaned down putting her hands on my shoulders making her big breasts jerk. - "Now things are different, it is not only your potential to be the strongest man in the world, what you just did makes me indebted to you for my all life"
That is nice. If my experiments go well, that 'for all my life' could become a 'for all eternity'.
I looked Mikumo in the eye with sincerity and seriousness. - "As you should know, I have a relationship with several women"
Mikumo didn't show the slightest surprise and just kept looking at me.
"If what you want is only an heir then I cannot help you, for me the family is the most important thing and if you want to have a child with me I will not be willing to let you go as a one-night stand" - I did not say it authoritatively, but firm and sincere giving the impression that, if Mikumo wanted to back down, I would respect her choice.
"I'm fine with forming a permanent relationship" - Mikumo nodded. - "By tradition of my family, I must marry the man with whom I lose my virginity and in case the man refuses I must kill him, but I could not kill him so I hope you will not be disappointed if you are the second person with whom I do this"
Well, that explains why despite having had an intimate relationship with Hayato she now seems to hate him.
I honestly don't care about this drama and it's actually more convenient for me as when my strength surpasses Hayato's, Mikumo might develop sincere feelings for me by helping her regain her pride.
"I'm not disappointed" - I did not stop showing fatigue, but still I showed a sincere smile as I approached her face to give her a soft kiss on the lips that she did not reject.
Mikumo didn't show shyness, but her inexperience was obvious so she awkwardly parted her lips and tried to use her tongue to entwine with me.
I found her innocent attempts to make an adult kiss amusing so I wanted to tease her a bit.
Using the best of my experience with women, I used my tongue to attack her sweet mouth causing her to close her eyes at the sensation of being kissed by an experienced womanizer.
She may be more skilled than me on a battlefield, but in the bed she is not my rival.
My hands went to her waist and I drew her to my body. Mikumo pulled her naked body closer and sat on my legs leaving her bare crotch unprotected.
Instinctively she wrapped her arms around my neck as a particular area of her body began to get wet, wetting my pants.
After a long time kissing us, Mikumo parted her lips from mine to breathe. Advantages of training the lungs, longer kisses.
"I admit it ... You are skilled" - Mikumo tried to speak calmly, but the blush on her face and the moisture in her lower region revealed her arousal.
Even though I kept smiling, I didn't stop showing weariness as Mikumo took my clothes off in an instant which was surprising.
"I'm surprised you have so much energy after giving me so much of your life energy" - When Mikumo saw my erection, her gaze turned a bit strange.
"I always have time and energy for important situations" - I smiled as my hands caressed Mikumo's hips.
Mikumo seemed to think of something trying to distract her mind from thinking about how excited she was. - "Dual cultivation should be the best way for you to regain some of your energyb..."
Although my old meditation technique was based on sexual intercourse, I no longer need it thanks to black blood, but that does not prevent me from continuing to practice it.
I don't know who the perverted idiot was who invented the foundations of dual cultivation, but I will always be grateful to him.
"Now that I think about it, you have a notorious reputation in this type of activity" - Mikumo's voice remained calm but her body had started to have small tremors from my touch.
Even if she was not a virgin and of considerable age, she dedicated her life to martial arts so in sexual aspects she is no different than an inexperienced teenager.
"I know" - My hands moved to Mikumo's round and smooth butt enjoying how smooth her skin was. - "And I'm sure they are not exaggerated rumors"
Mikumo didn't show shyness when she used her hand to hold my manhood and press her entrance.
Before she lowered her hips I held her by her waist and looked at her with extreme seriousness. - "I don't want to sound like a possessive idiot, but I hope you understand that doing this means that we will be family, it is not just a relationship for benefits, a real family"
Mikumo showed a subtle smile. - "Until death do us part?"
"Even after that, always a family" - I relaxed my expression and smiled hiding that my words were more literal than she thought.
"I like the way that sounds" - Mikumo's smile grew. - "I will remain faithful to you until the day I die, so if you can extend my life expectancy I will stay with you longer"
Maybe I underestimated Mikumo's instincts, she seems to have the idea that I can actually extend her life expectancy beyond human expectations. A little bit of Hamon, a pinch of Madness, two tablespoons of Rasen with Anti-Rasen, and voila, you get a shelf life of approximately 9000 years.
Mikumo lowered her hips allowing our bodies to come together. She was as tight as a virgin, but being a martial artist, her tolerance for discomfort and pain was impressive so she immediately began to move her hips.
Mikumo lacked the technique and experience to please a man, but her desire to have an heir to her motivated her to do her best which was good for me.
I held her by the hip as she followed her instincts. I don't think Hayato was referring to this when he said that I must learn to move my body according to my instincts, but I must say that Mikumo learns quite quickly.
With subtle movements, I was guiding Mikumo's movements so in just fifteen minutes after she began to move her hips, her movements improved a lot and she even showed great talent in this dual cultivation as she used her excellent control over her own body to make the internal folds of her vagina adequately stimulate my crotch giving me great pleasure.
I allowed her to be the one to take the lead in our intimate moment, while she struggled to make me ejaculate to get pregnant, I enjoyed the wonderful spectacle of seeing her big breasts bouncing with each hip shake she performed.
As time passed, Mikumo gave in to the pleasure as she let out her loud moans.
After an hour she had already had enough orgasms to knock most of the women unconscious.
After three hours the room was a complete mess where the sofas, bed, kitchen, and basically everything that was solid was covered in our sweat and other fluids.
In the end, I ended up in the bathtub of private bathroom in the room relaxing in bathtub while Mikumo was resting against my chest.
"The rumors about you in Yami were not exaggerated" - Mikumo spoke calmly.
That's one of the things I like the most about this woman, even when I subjected her to maddening pleasure that could break the mind of a talented woman like Shigure, Mikumo has kept her personality and her ambitions intact.
That does not mean that I like Mikumo more than Shigure, if I had to choose one of the two to stay with I would choose Shigure without hesitation, but even so, Mikumo is among the 5 women that I like the most in my current harem.
"Well, if I'm going to take care of so many women in my family then I need the ability to make everyone happy" - I shrugged.
"A good way to see it" - Mikumo nodded. - "Although there is something about which I am curious"
I can guess what she's going to say, but I've already made preparations, although on the negative side some of my wives will get anxious.
"Even though you have been with so many women you have not got any pregnant, I hope you are not infertile or we will both be in trouble" - Mikumo continued calm as if this did not matter. - "If you were infertile I will have to kill you, and since with your death my last hope would die I will have to commit suicide"
"Why are martial artists so exaggerated?" - I sighed wearily.
"I'm sure you're the same" - Mikumo seemed amused by my comment. - "Although you were discreet, I saw when you threw a needle towards the door when someone tried to enter"
"I do not like to be interrupted when I do important things" - I smiled wryly.
Stupid Tachibana tried to break the door while I was enjoying Mikumo's ass so I threw a black blood needle at him. According to Navi, he didn't die, but someone will need a patch for his right eye, and for some reason, that idiot also had his left hand broken.
"It's fine" - Mikumo didn't sound angry even though I messed up one of her allies. - "I also think that it is disrespectful to interrupt something so important that is why I made my Ki attack anyone who tried to open the door by force"
Ha, I love this woman.
"Back on the topic" - Mikumo interrupted my internal laugh. - "I hope you understand the situation"
"Yes, I understand" - I smiled wryly at how stubborn this woman is. - "Don't worry, as you should already know, there are some techniques used by martial artists to preserve the best of their lineage so that even if they sleep with random men or women there is no risk of pregnancy"
While those techniques are helpful, my Anti-Rasen infertility technique is much better as it prevents even some stupid scientist from cloning my DNA.
"Although at this moment you will not be pregnant as some problems will occur, I promise you that when the situation with Yami calms down I will give you the heir that you love so much" - I sighed internally thinking about the deep shit that I will end up with when this reaches the ears of Sayo and the other women who want to get pregnant.
Well, if I have children, I can see if they can inherit my abilities to put them to some use…. Ah, I'll be shit as a father, it must be hereditary.
"Good" - was all Mikumo said, but I could feel deep happiness and gratitude in her voice.
With my ability to feel the madness in people, I could feel the intense obsession that Mikumo was developing towards me because of her gratitude.
Even if her personality doesn't change, her desires and ambitions revolve around me, something similar to what happened with Saeko.
"Now that there is no need for secrets between us I would like to ask you something" - I smiled when I felt Mikumo press her body against mine in a more intimate way. - "Do you know who murdered Miu Furinji's mother?"
I don't have time to play detective so I prefer information right away, I just hope that the murderer is not Mikumo or things will become a problem since I am not giving up on this beautiful woman.
"I know who it was" - Mikumo replied with a bit of amusement and irony. - "Shizuha Furinji was killed by Saiga Furinji, Hayato's son"
...….. Shit.
