Chapter 127 - Guild Debut

Having experienced first hand the skill and technique that Kanae showcased, Cha Hae-in had her eyes open to the new possibility in improving her swordsmanship.

"Your skill isn't bad but you are using it as if you're fighting a human."

Kanae slowly removed her blade around Cha Hae-in's neck giving a friendly smile while Cha Hae-in was interested in her word.

"What do you mean?"

"You ought to execute your blade in a specific way that only works against humans and also you are not utilizing every ounce of your body in using your sword."

She said having learned the basic foundation in strengthening her body before learning swordsmanship does amplify her own overall Power.

"....Can you teach me how to use Breathing Style?"

Cha Hae-in wanted to improve her skills even further than before and seeing the opportunity didn't hesitate to take it.

"Of course but I can only teach you my technique and I advise you to adjust it according to your preferences or style."

Kanae said since her own style doesn't suit Cha Hae-In.

"My own style…"

"That's right, All known Breathing Styles derived from what's called the Sun Breathing, the first one ever created. The majority of known Breathing Styles mimic a certain element of nature like flame, water and wind and replicate it with the user's movements, techniques and abilities. Take mine for example, I replicate how flowers act and move giving birth to Flower Breathing."

Cha Hae-in was enlightened by her words and started to think about the teaching of her instructor.

"Replicate an element…."

She already started to think about her skills that allowed her to turn her weapon into light causing it to become extremely sharp.

"Thank you for teaching me."

"You're welcome."

After a while the two head back with the other and Cha Hae-in introduces herself with the other girls before excusing herself as she had to go back.

"She is quite amazing to last against you."

Nezuko remarked seeing their fight knowing that Kanae was holding back quite a lot against Cha Hae-In.

"How was her skill?"

Shinobu asked her sister, who started to think for a moment.

"Not bad, talented enough to be a Hashira. Her skill is mediocre but her drive to improve does make up for it."

"Are you planning on teaching her Total Concentration Breathing?"

Mitsuri asked curiously since she could teach her since their movements resemble each other and how it felt like dance.

"I am, and Ryuu is already planning on teaching her Earthland magic."

Kanae glanced at her lover who shrugged it off before everyone headed back inside to rest.

=============

Cha Hae-in was driving home thinking about her experience upon visiting Ryuu having gained an insight in how to improve her own swordsmanship. She also learned that her life had been mundane and forgotten how it felt to share a meal with someone.

Ring!

Her phone could be heard and quickly picked up upon seeing the number.

"Hello, Cha speaking."

[ Hello, Miss Cha. This is chairman Go Gun-Hee. ]

She was a bit surprised that the chairman was calling her and quickly asked why they called.

[ We just want to know if you're willing to supervise a newly established Guild that is led by the new S Rank Hunter, Ryuu Cinco? ]

Cha Hae-In finds it strange that he already started establishing his own guild when he just registered, making think that had a double awakening and had been hiding until now.

'This is just perfect to train alongside them.'

She thought to herself and immediately agreed to take the role informing her that it would start a few days from now.

The next day, Ryuu decided to take his woman to buy some equipment for their future dungeon raid since he was still unsure of the danger lurking. He took them to where a huge display of armory could be displayed.

"There's a lot of selection…are you sure you can afford them?"

Erza asked curious about adding the armor to her collection while Ryuu nodded at her question.

"Of course, I already st-I mean borrowed some money. I swear it wouldn't be an issue."

Ryuu assured them as his woman decided for their equipment that Kie and Rias went to the section that amplified their power while the rest went to find armor that suited them. They mostly have flexible material armor that is made out of Monsters.

He doesn't need armor as his body is immortal and even if his soul is killed then he can just hop into someone else's body and turn it into the main body. Ryuu was worried about dying and more afraid for his woman.

After a while, they all got their armor where Kie had staff that amplified her magical abilities while Rias only took some armor since she disliked having to wield a staff. Ryuu saw they're appearance and nodded how it all matches their personality. Once they all bought the equipment and had them be delivered the next day.

Ryuu received a phone call from the hunter association informing who would be the one going to observe them and was happy that it was Cha Hae-In.

In the next few days, they arrived at the scene where an A Rank Gate was present where reports were gathered around to interview Ryuu and the new guild that had just recently established. It was a bit of a shock to the people when they saw Nezuko riding Blue but just ignored them.

Cha Hae-In arrived wearing her armor and sword to her side looking at them curiously. Ryuu wasn't even in armor, only a blackcoat.

"Why aren't you wearing any armor?"

"Why do I need armor when I don't plan on getting hit?"

Ryuu just bluntly said while Cha Hae-in just let him be, knowing he was skilled enough to back his words.

"Also, is that summon?"

Cha Hae-In asked upon seeing blue since she smelled that it was a monster yet was tamed enough to be around people.

"You can say that. Blue is my pet. Isn't that right blue?"

Growl!

It lightly growled in response, surprising Cha Hae-In a bit and started to give up in using her common sense to Ryuu's guild. The group soon went inside the Gate finding themselves into another deep forested place with Ryuu quickly using his [ Byakugan ] to scout the area and find a number of A rank monsters with borderline S Rank.

"Everyone follows me. The hunt just began."

They all followed Ryuu with Cha Hae-in barely keeping up with their speed and soon arrived to find a large group of High Orc in an open area. They were large, around 50 to hundred of them having massive hulking bodies and the moment they saw Ryuu group roared at them.

Ryuu leaped to action slicing through the horses of Orc followed by Trese who went ahead and used her abilities to immobilize some of them before decapitating their head.

'This is…it's just one sided!'

Cha Hae-in couldn't believe what she was seeing since they were easily defeating A rank monster.

"Flame Cannon! Burst!"

Nezuko used flames under her feet to fly before slamming her feet into one of them while sending an array of explosive fireballs. It instantly burns the monster and kills them without mercy.

"Nezuko, don't burn them too much or the Mana core will burn! Greater heals! Greater stamina! Calming aura! Restrain! Blindness!"

Kie scolded her daughter while using he rmana to support her group and restrain the enemy. Once she debuff the monster, Justine leapt to action and obliterated each orc with her strike.

Cha Hae-In was surprised when she saw Kanae use her magic body creating small seeds enough to enter the monster body that instantly grew inside and killed them.

'Was that magic? I'm really confused.'

She turns to the side where Erza uses to change her armor into the [ Heaven's Wheel ] using the sword to slice through the horde of monsters then Rias turns using her [ Power of Destruction ] to mold javalines that disintegrated their target upon contact.

Everyone easily slaughtered the monster while Cha Hae-in mind was too shocked to even speak. It was just a massacre and everything was over in less than 5 minutes.

"Miss Cha, are you alright?"

Ryuu went closer to check up on her, noticing how everything seemed too much for her to handle.
