"Sigh… Is Kimihito still not home? Even though it's already evening..." Yuuna said in a bored tone.
"Don't worry, he'll definitely be home." Answered Chitose, who happened to be accompanying her at the moment.
Right now, the two of them were in the room near the entrance. Yuuna had been waiting for Kimihito for a long time, who still hadn't come home, and it bore her. For some reason, it felt like being left by him made her bored even though she had often been like this.
Chitose, who no longer had work, also accompanied Yuuna to wait for Kimihito. She was currently drinking tea as usual after doing work.
"But still… Huh~"
"It seems that you really like Kimihito-kun. Fufufu~" Chitose teased because she felt Yuuna looked happier after Kimihito lived in Yuragi-sou.
"Of course! T-that's because we're friends..."
When Chitose heard the reason, she thought, 'Maybe more than that, right?'
"Fufufu~"
"I am home!" Suddenly the door in front of them opened and revealed someone.
"Welcome back."
"Kimihito, welcome back!"
"Yuuna and Chitose-san!"
After seeing Kimihito coming over, it seemed that Yuuna noticed something was wrong with him. "W-what happened to your face?!"
Currently, on Kimihito's face, they can see the bruises as it had just been hit hard. Many traces of dried blood were also visible on his face. Of course, Yuuna automatically became worried. She was afraid if something happened to him.
"Ah! it's just a little practice, don't worry."
"But are you all right?" She asked again to be sure.
"I'm fine. I'm sure it will heal in a few days too."
"You can't do that, Kimihito-kun! Here I will compress with ice." Chitose said with a worried tone.
Chitose couldn't take it anymore after seeing the wound on Kimihito's face. Even though he said he was fine, it still needed to be treated.
" Sorry for troubling you, Chitose-san." He said, feeling bad for bothering Chitose.
With that, Chitose immediately took the medicine box and ice cube bucket. It didn't take her long to prepare it all. And when everything was ready, she said, "Now, take off your clothes."
"Eh?!"
Already getting ready, Kimihito suddenly became a little surprised after hearing Chitose's words. He was trying to hide something and didn't want to show it to others because he was sure it would make Chitose and Yuuna even more worried. However, he seems to have underestimated the Zashiki Warashi intuition, who has lived for almost 1000 years.
"I don't think that's necessary..."
Hearing his refusal, Chitose immediately said, "Of course it's necessary. You may have wounds on your body as well, right?."
'It can't just be your face that gets hurt, right?' Chitose thought.
Indeed it would be strange if only Kimihito's face was injured while his body was fine. It is logical to think that his body was also injured or even worse than the wound on his face.
Because Chitose continued to force him, Kimihito finally decided to take off his clothes. His body began to be seen, especially his lean muscular build. However, something went wrong there.
"Th-this..."
"How did it come to be like this?!"
"I was just pushing myself a little." He said with a smile.
Even though Kimihito was smiling, his smile didn't reduce their worries at all. How could Chitose and Yuuna be relieved after seeing his smile with a face full of wounds and blood marks. It just made them even more worried.
***
Before Kimihito headed to Yuragi-sou, or rather when he was still at Bang's dojo. By now, they had been fighting for about 6 hours non-stop since lunch.
"I guess that's all I can teach you." Say Bang.
Bang's current condition can be said to look good. Although not serious, the marks of punches and kicks were clearly visible on his body. In addition, due to old age, his stamina is almost exhausted, and the pain in his back is increasing.
On the other hand, Kimihito's condition can be said to be much worse than Bang's. In addition, a little blood was seen coming out of his mouth. But Kimihito himself still believes he can continue to fight because he still has a lot of stamina, and his consciousness is still evident. In contrast to Bang, who is less injured than him but can't continue the fight due to lack of stamina and his back pain that was getting worse.
" Thanks for the lesson today, sensei." Kimihito thanked Bang for teaching him a lot today.
Kimihito has learned a lot from this battle for approximately 6 hours. He had already imitated the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist techniques that Bang had used in combat, and it just kept getting better the longer he fought.
Bang and Bomb were undoubtedly surprised to see Kimihito's ability to continue to develop in battle. But the two of them didn't expect him to progress so far in just one fight. They knew it had been a tough fight for him, but it was surprising to see him able to endure to the end.
'Looks like I've created a monster- no, but a great Hero.' Bang thought while smiling towards his current best disciple.
"Are you okay, Bang?" Bomb asked, worried about his little brother's condition.
While stroking his back, Bang then said, "I think my back pain is getting worse."
"Sigh… It's because you pushed yourself too hard…."
"Hahaha sorry sorry onii-chan"
"Haa..."
"Kimihito-kun, since you've learned everything, now you can train with my Onii-chan."
"Hm… I'll wait for you to fully recover first." Say Bomb.
"Um, I'll call Sensei when I'm already healed."
"Oh right! I forgot to give this." Suddenly Bang reached into his pocket and handed Kimihito a piece of paper.
"This?"
"It's a prestigious martial arts tournament ticket. You can use it to register."
"Only certain people are given the ticket. Since you've learned the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, I was thinking of giving it to you."
"It's a month away..."
"I think that's enough time... You still have time to learn my martial arts techniques." Bomb said while stroking his long beard.
" I will come later."
"You must! Hm…If I remember correctly, the main prize is around 3 million yen."
"3 million yen?!"
For Kimihito, 3 million yen is a lot of money. He could live comfortably in Yuragi-sou for more than 15 years with that much money. Although it seems strange to use Yuragi-sou as a standard of living, the reality is that if he counts it with rental costs and eating costs there. He could live comfortably there without thinking about lodging costs for over 15 years.
"Kimihito-kun looks like your uniform is all torn off... Wait, I'll give you a new one."
"Oh! Thank you, Sensei." He also just realized that the uniform he got this morning was torn, and he was only wearing his pants.
After receiving his new uniform, Kimihito decided to go home because it was already evening. He didn't want to make the others worry if he came home too late at night.
"Then, Sensei... I'll take my leave. Thank you for everything you have taught me."
"You didn't forget to bring your meat, did you?"
"I have brought everything."
Bang nodded after hearing Kimihito's words. He then thought, 'Hope he doesn't become like Garou...'
Kimihito began to leave Bang and Bomb, still in the dojo. After he left now only the two of them were there.
"Looks like I'll be staying at your place Onii-chan."
"Huh… What can I do? You can't sleep in this place… Besides, you're also too much."
"Hahaha… I'm just too happy to have such a talented disciple." Bang does not regret the results today.
"Hm, I'm sure he's more talented than that brat."
"Hahaha… That's obvious, isn't it."
Hearing his little brother's optimism, Bomb just said his hopes."I hope he won't change in the future."
What kind of nightmare would Kimihito deviate from the right path. Moreover, he was a very talented person. Neither of them could imagine how bad the situation would be if that happened. All they could do right now was do their best to guide him and hope he didn't stray.
"I'm sure he doesn't... O-ouch, my back seems to be getting worse."
"I'll treat you later."
"Thank you, Onii-chan."
The result of today's battle lasted approximately 6 hours.
Dojo Bang was destroyed during the fight.
[DING!]
***
Back to Kimihito right now, he has finished being treated by Chitose, who is also assisted by Yuuna. As a Zashiki Warashi who had lived for almost a thousand years, she naturally possessed an extraordinary basic medical ability.
Chitose quickly treated all the wounds throughout Kimihito's body and wrapped his body with bandages. For minor injuries, she only smeared it with medicine and plastered it. Yuuna also helped during the process. She prepared various equipment that Chitose needed.
"Phew~ With this, it's all over," Chitose said while wiping the sweat from her forehead.
"Thanks, Chitose-san and Yuuna. I feel like I can train again." He said, joking.
Hearing Kimihito's joke, Chitose's expression immediately changed.
"Kimihito-kun, how about I make you rest properly? I can confirm that you know~" She said with a smile, but somehow Kimihito felt something different behind that smile.
"C-calm down Chitose-san! I was just joking about that."
"Fufufu~ That's good then. Make sure you really get some rest."
"Um... Oh right! My teacher gave me the meat earlier. I thought about letting Chitose-san cook it." He then gave a bag of meat to Chitose.
Chitose who saw the amount of high-quality meat became shocked. "Isn't this too much?"
"Don't worry, my teacher just lives alone, and he can't eat it all, so he gave some to me."
"Please convey my thanks to your teacher."
"I'll tell him sometime."
Meanwhile, Yuuna became shocked when she saw a lot of meat, "Whoa, are we going to have a party?"
"Since I've cooked dinner today, maybe we'll do it tomorrow."
"Then I'll have dinner first."
"Wait, Kimihito! I'm coming too!"
***
Kimihito started walking to the living room with Yuuna. After arriving in front of the room, he immediately opened the door. Inside there were only Sagiri and Nonko. She didn't see Yaya.
Sagiri and Nonko, who were having dinner, immediately looked at the door as soon as it opened. They were both shocked after seeing Kimihito's different appearance.
"What's the matter with you, Kimihito-chan?!"
"Did you just fight with the thugs?"
Currently, Kimihito is wearing a Yuragi-sou yukata. It looks like some plasters are plastered on his face to cover some wounds. In addition, the entire upper body to the neck was wrapped with a white bandage.
"I'm fine. It's because I pushed myself a little while practicing earlier. Chitose-san and Yuuna also helped treat me just now."
"I see... Looks like you've been training hard."
"Then~ How about we have a drink later, Kimihito-chan~ I heard Sake can also make you feel better, you know~"
'Where did you hear it?' He thought.
"That can't be! I will make you a Chuuma Ninja herbal concoction. Although it tastes strange and bitter, it has extraordinary properties!"
"Calm down, you two… I'd be happy if you guys were worried about me, but I'm fine now."
"Fuaah~" When the three of them made a fuss, suddenly Yaya came out from under the kotatsu table.
After getting out of the kotatsu, Yaya then looked around. Then her eyes looked at Kimihito in front of her, who seemed to be injured. Without saying a word, she started crawling towards him and licking the scar on his face.
"Yaya?!" Suddenly it surprised him. He didn't know what Yaya was thinking.
"Yaya, what are you doing?!" And of course, Sagiri immediately rebuked Yaya when she saw Yaya doing such a nasty thing.
"I'm lick... taking lick... care lick... of lick... Kimihito lick..." Yaya replied while continuing to lick him.
Sagiri immediately separated the two of them because it seemed like Yaya wouldn't stop licking all of Kimihito's wounds.
"Moou even though Yaya wants to treat Kimihito."
"Thanks, Yaya... I feel better now..." Even though he didn't understand what Yaya had just done, he still had to thank her, maybe.
"Umu," Yaya answered briefly. She was happy because she could help treat his wound.
After that incident, Kimihito continued his dinner, and it ended quietly without any Sake, Chuuma Herbs, or catgirl licks.
