Days?: Failure Is Not An Options! Part 2

(Vale: Vale City: Beacon Academy: Campus: Courtyard)

So after everyone got better from taking the [Abnormal Food]. Izaya helped Momoyo out by finding which areas in Beacon Academy, for Ziarre to come in to get her out of Vale Kingdom.

Afterward, Shigure scout out the area just to be sure Momoyo and Ziarre won't be stopped from leaving. In fact, the only reason Ziarre was able to enter the kingdom was because of the Airship she using, which could go undetected of the Vale Kingdom's radar.

That and she managed to install a cloaking feature into the Airship, giving it the ability to blend in with the surroundings to hide it in plain sight. But, come with the cost of having to use more [Dust] to power it. Which everyone finds it worth it since [Dust] is not an issue in acquiring them.

So after a few minutes of running across the whole Campus. Did Shigure and Izaya finally find a place for Ziarre to pick Momoyo up. After sending Momoyo off and making sure the military doesn't discover Momoyo is missing. We changed spots in the Courtyard, to make it look like the whole group went somewhere else while we wait for the reinforcement to arrive in a matter of minutes.

"So how are we going to do this? Are we going to stay here until Pyrrha is ready to leave or head to Atlas as soon as possible?" Izaya asks everyone.

"Well, before we continue this topic. We still need to get our new members, before something wrong would occur due to their presence not among us." Weiss wanted to make sure our two new members don't mess something up and lead to our identities to be discovered by the military.

"Now that you mention it. Where was she during the whole invasion happening?" I was a little curious what happened to her since the last two days I talked with her.

"Em. You really need to get out more." Pyrrha said to me in a disapproval tone and cut me off before I could reply back as she continues off, "Luckily, I was responsible enough to keep contact with her and answer almost all her questions while I get some answers of my own."

I stare at Pyrrha for a few seconds before I take out my scroll to message Yukiko on her whereabouts. Not after a whole minute, I got a message back from her and explain to me she is currently at her place while trying to stop some creepy people from entering her home. Since she is currently allowing the civilians staying in her Frontyard without anything return, but the condition of others not being able to enter her home without her permission.

"Uh, how about we head to Yukiko's place and help her out with people trying to enter her home without her permission. If we're going to face the military soon. Then, I rather not be out in the open, for their Airships to lock on to us and fire us from the sky." I said to everyone, but it looks like both Pyrrha and Weiss don't want to leave Beacon Academy at the moment, same with Ruby as well.

"I'll stay here then." Izaya quickly figures out that someone needs to help out the new members of the Arcana, and he has no desire to do so. In fact, the only reason he didn't bother to tag along with Momoyo back to Mistral is because of Weiss' problems alone is what keeps him going.

"Actually, we don't...have an option...to pick at the moment." Shigure announces to everyone as she pointed to the people around us. Are beginning to head to the Docking Area, which means the reinforcement has arrived at Beacon Academy.

"So what are we going to do now that the reinforcement arrived?" Weiss asks me since it looks like the only for her to meet up with the rest of her team would be either including the part of our actions to meet up with them or her other half of the team come to them instead.

"Well, you, Izaya, and Ruby can go find the rest of your team while Shigure, Pyrrha, and I find Pyrrha's team. Then, all of us could gather together." I answer Weiss, then glance in the direction of the Docking Area. "And afterward, we can decide on rather stay here in Vale for a while or head to Atlas. Depending on the rest of your teams' choices on the matter."

"At least it something we could do right now." Izaya agreed with my answer and honestly, he wanted to get Weiss' inheritance back as soon as possible. Then, he could relax for a while before going back to gather more intel on the other kingdoms like he usually does when he some spare moment to do so.

"I'm still lost." Ruby mumble to herself, but was ignored by everyone and was dragged by her partner, as they begin their search for Blake and Yang, with Izaya tagging along.

Leaving behind Pyrrha, Shigure, and me, as we took the opposite direction the others are going and with Pyrrha leading us to where the rest of her team should be. Just to be sure, Pyrrha even called one of her team members to find out their exact location.

"So did, any problems show up while I was gone from Mistral?" Pyrrha asks both Shigure and I while we walking towards the temporary are being used as a replacement for the Dining Hall. Since the place is destroyed, which is my fault for throwing multiple [Paladins] without thinking about what would happen later.

"Nothing requires your attention. Just destroyed a few enemies' bases to give out a warning and what not." I shrugged my shoulders at Pyrrha, "Unless you want to count the Kagamiin family as a problem."

Once the name of certain family's name was mentioned. The expression of Pyrrha went stiff, then straight to a blank to mask her hidden emotions.

"And pray tell, what did that family done this time?" Pyrrha asks me in a cold tone, which is really rare coming from her, with the way her characteristic.

"Just the usual. Trying to get me to fight one of their family members one more time and they would have tried to get you to face them like last time, but since you're here in Vale. They had to pick me or our cousin, Adamo. By the way, he still mad at you for keeping on shorten his name as a nickname." I answer Pyrrha's question.

"Not my fault that it became a habit of mine to call him that. Can you blame me? It has been years already and not once have I stopped calling him that unless I'm required to call him by his full name at some point." Pyrrha didn't care our cousin is mad at her if anything she finds it funny to see her cousin's face turn red all the time.

"I still don't like the Kagamiin family." Pyrrha said simply and straightforwardly. "Especially the heiress, that makes me feel the urge to beat her within the inch of her life."

"Are you still pissed about Kyoka beating you in hand to hand combat? You know you could beat her with your weapons." I glance over at Pyrrha, who scowls at me for mentioning the heiress of the Kagamiin family's name in front of her. Also, the same character from Dragon Rioting, but as a wolf faunus.

Furthermore, someone I barely have any knowledge of when I barely remember the manga. After all, the time I last read it was when there only a few chapters released in my previous life before I died.

In fact, the only thing I know about Kyoko of her canon part is her speech is laced with food-related allusions. Which is the same in this world version, since she is literally half wolf that is a carnivore.

Before I could continue off with my inner monologue; both Pyrrha and Shigure broke me out of it by pitching my cheeks, with them having a cheek each to pitch.

"Ow." I said with a hint of [Pain] in my voice, but the way Pyrrha staring at me, show me, that she is not amused at all right now because she knew I was doing an inner monologue about Kyoka while Shigure didn't show it on her face. But, even she was annoyed as well and didn't like Kyoka as well.

few minutes later*

(Vale: Vale City: Beacon Academy: Campus)

"Ugh." Pyrrha grunt in disgust as she was the first one to notice two soldiers are in front of her team, with one of the two soldiers is trying to interrogate her team. "Can't believe they're doing this now of all time. Just when we the invasion is over and now they are trying to cause more negative emotions to raise?"

Before Pyrrha could rush over to give a talk or two, to those two soldiers, for messing with her friends/teammates. I stop her before she could cause a problem. In fact, it should be me the one who would rush in to do it my way when my emotions get the better of me sometime. Mostly because everytime I gain a new [Persona], my controls over my emotions tend to loosen for a few days until I get it back under control. And even then, it gets harder sometimes.

But, I won't blame this carelessness on Pyrrha's part due to her being stressed out as it is. Since becoming the new Fall Maiden, half though, and mention of Kyoko in her presence. Plus, having to drink the [Death By Mystical Soup] was already testing her patience.

So having to see someone interrogate her friends just crossing her patience at this very moment. Not even Pyrrha could stay calm after what she went through.

I place a finger on my mouth to signal Pyrrha to quiet down. Then, I made a hand gesture to Shigure to notify her that both of us will take down the two soldiers down in silence.

Both of Shigure and I blur out of sight before Pyrrha could throw in a word or two. As we hide nearby and already picked which ones for us to take out in front of us. With the one on the right is for Shigure while the left one is for me to take down.

This would be the right time for me to activate my [Shadowless Evasion Art], to take out my target, but I decided not to. Because if I keep using this [Fusion Skill] all the time, for stealth usage. I would end up getting rusty with my [Stealth Skill], even if they are already entered the [Master Rank]. I can still get rusty over time.

Once both Shigure and I got into position. Before we take action, we made sure to look each other while making hand gestures to communicate with each other without the need of our scrolls. After a whole minute is over, we rush out of our hiding spots and appear behind the two soldiers without their notices. This included Pyrrha's teammates as well.

Then, we strike both the soldiers at the same time, with Shigure using one of her [Senbon] that is specially crafted to pierce through aura shield with ease and is laced with her [Sleepty-Time Elixir]. Not the [Special Grade] one, but the normal one where it knocks the target out for an hour or less, depending on how strong the target's resistance against Shigure's [Sleepy-Time Elixir].

Even, if the target doesn't have a strong aura shield or doesn't have their aura unlocked yet. Shigure's [Anti-Aura Senbon] would still work like a normal one. As a result, the soldier that Shigure targeted is knocked out instantly before they realize what happened.

For me, I activated my [Master Aura Manipulation Mastery] to use my own aura to overcome the target's aura shield. Bypassing it, where I could strike the back of their neck to knock them out cold.

All this took only a single second for both Shigure and me to take down the two soldiers. And seeing this before her eyes, Pyrrha rush over once she notices the two soldiers are knocked out cold.

"Are you guys okay?!" Pyrrha asks her teammates in a worried tone and notices how Ren is more tired than usual and Nora helping him stand. Jaune on the hand is alright without any injury on plain sight.

"Yeah, we're good. Just irritated that we're being questioned by those two, for the last few minutes. We were just minding our own business while waiting for you guys to show up, then they showed up before you did and outright demand answers from us when we don't even know the answers in the first place!" Jaune scowl at the unconscious soldiers and the lack of being surprised at the actions of seeing two soldiers knocked out by his partner's brother and friend.

"I think we should break their legs." Nora said in a serious tone, which is weird in my point of view. Even just knowing her for a few days; this is a little weird for me because she didn't sound cheerful or excited like she usually is.

In fact, Nora looks like she about to do what she said in a matter of seconds, if it wasn't for Ren's presence that requires Nora's attention more, than she would have done so.

Before anyone could say anything further; the soldier, I knocked out, didn't stay unconscious and already starting to wake up from their surprise nap. This caused a few of us, to take this much more serious than we did before.

Without waiting for the soldier to be fully conscious. I take out my [Combat Knife] and place it against the solder's neck, stopping them from moving and completely force them to regain their awareness that they are in danger.

Unfortunately, instead of stopping the soldier and question afterward. My [Combat Knife] was almost taken from me by them if it wasn't for my physical training. The soldier would have been able to tear it out of my hand, then use the [Combat Knife] against me.

Of course, I didn't just stop them from trying to tear the [Combat Knife] out of my own hand, but also change from a crouching position back to standing up as I plant my right foot against their back, forcing them onto the ground with their back facing us.

A second later, I switch my right foot from the soldier's back to their the back of their neck and I signal Shigure to put the soldier to sleep after having a quick change of mind. Instead of questioning them, I rather not, have them contact their friends to come here.

But, again, I was overconfidence once more due to the fact that I place these soldiers below me, which lead to me almost getting my left ankle cut if I haven't lifted it up at the very last seconds. As the soldier, I tried to get Shigure to put to sleep, drawn out their own [Combat Knife], but a different type of [Combat Knife] that the military gives to their soldiers to wield.

Furthermore, the [Combat Knife] the soldier just pulled out happen to be an [Anti-Aura Weapon], which would easily bypass my aura shield with ease like the [Anti-Aura Senbon] Shigure used a few seconds ago.

It's easy to discover if a weapon is an [Anti-Aura Weapon] is by seeing the weapon itself release a faint glow of the wielder's aura. As the [Anti-Aura Weapon] actually use the wielder's aura to bypass the target's aura shield. This is similar to the way I use my own aura to bypass others' aura shield with or without a weapon. But, I could only use this method after I reached the [Master Rank] in [Aura Manipulation Mastery].

The [Anti-Aura Weapon] is pretty much the shortcut way to use this method without having to go through training to develop this method to bypass aura shield. In fact, the [Anti-Aura Weapon] don't even use much aura from the wielder to activate its special effect.

If I didn't learn about these [Anti-Aura Weapon] from Shigure herself during the time she was learning [Blacksmith] from her Father. I wouldn't have thought there was such a thing in this world. So now, I realize this world is much more dangerous than I usually thought in the beginning.

In fact, the Atlas Kingdom was the first one to build a prototype [Anti-Aura Bullet] from years of research on the progress of making [Anti-Aura Weapon] and bribing multiple people with knowledge on it, to gain research materials to develop this prototype.

Furthermore, if it wasn't for Weiss at the time from stealing the files from her own Father every often. None of us in the Arcana would have any knowledge about it besides there are [Anti-Aura Weapon].

Plus, from last month reports on Atlas Kingdom's R&D happen to start a project to develop an [Anti-Aura Weapon] in the form of battlesuit like the [Paladins]. Making the future battles with the Atlas Kingdom harder than it already is thanks to this new project of theirs.

So seeing a no named soldier pulled out an [Anti-Aura Combat Knife] like nothing tend to bring some bad feelings. Which is why Shigure change her [Anti-Aura Senbon] with another one that laced with a stronger version of the [Sleepy-Time Elixir], but weaker than the [Special Grade Sleepy-Time Elixir].

However, this wasn't enough for me and a ruthless expression form on my face a little bit of killing intent is being released, but quickly I stop it and the ruthless look on my fact disappear as well.

All this happens in a single second, but was enough to almost cause Pyrrha's teammates to jump out of their skins due feeling heavy killing intent from me. And a reminder to them that I'm not just their friend's older brother, but also a killer.

Of course, if Pyrrha's team members weren't present at the time; well, let's just say the military will be short of two soldiers by the end of today.

"Well, how in the world does a grunt possess an [Anti-Aura Combat Knife]?" I glance at the so-called weapon lying on the ground near the sleeping soldier. No one bothers to answer my question because none of us have the answer to it at the moment.

Shigure grabs the [Anti-Aura Combat Knife] to see if she could check the quality of the bladework and see any flaws before her eyes, then begin her body search on the soldier she put to sleep first.

"I didn't...find another." Shigure said to everyone, but she did keep the [Anti-Aura Combat Knife] just for study, maybe even see if she could get some materials out of it after melting it down later.

"Are we seriously watching one of Pyrrha's friend looting a soldier in front of us like nothing?!" Jaune looks at everyone with a disbelief expression. "I mean sure these guys were messing with us verbally, but they didn't do anything physical to us!"

"Weren't you just irritated and a little bit calm a few seconds ago?" I raise an eyebrow at Jaune, who looks like he would rather not talk to me at any point but answers nonetheless.

"I'm still tired from last night. Anyone would be at this point!" Jaune throws his hands in the air, then let out a deep breath. "Anyway, do you guys have to knock them out instead of talking to them? I know they were jerks and all, but still, they are soldiers that could pretty much arrest us for attacking them."

"And you do remember both Shigure and I are criminals right?" I made a remark to Jaune's responses and feel like Jaune not using his brain outside of tactics. "After all, it's not like we're going to be arrested or anything, right?" I said to Jaune in a sarcastic tone, for not realizing this.

"Come on Em. You can't blame him when he still not back to normal after what happened last night." Pyrrha said to me, which the intent to rescue her partner and preventing him from making this situation any worse than it already is, with two soldiers already knocked out cold and lying on the ground before our feet.

Boom!*

"And that's our cue to leave this place." I said dryly, then glance at the still sleeping soldiers before our feet and glance over the direction the explosion just happens.

After thinking about for a whole 10 seconds, I switched to [Amakusa Shirou Tokisada]. My very first [Persona] and the main one I would use to help me find a path out of Beacon Academy. Thanks to [Revelation] giving me the sixth sense to find the most suitable path while traveling.

[Revelation]:

Passive Effect: A [Personal Skill] equivalent to "instinct". Instinct is a sixth sense regarding battles, but "Revelation" accommodates all matters related to the achievement of a goal (for instance, choosing the most suitable path while traveling). Because there is no basis (so he thinks), it cannot be explained well to others.

Type: Passive

Target: Self

Rank: Tier 10

Cost: None

Yeah, I honestly feel happy that this [Personal Skill] belongs to [Amakusa Shirou Tokisada] isn't locked like the other [Persona] of mine due to the lack of the requirement in [Persona's Rank] to use them.

Not bother to check if Pyrrha's team would follow or not, and started running without thinking which direction to head and picked randomly. As I kept the thought of finding a way out of Beacon Academy's Campus after reunion with Izaya and Weiss, with her team.

"Hey! Wait up!" Jaune called out and quickly chase after me, with the others following along. And it was only thanks to Pyrrha's pity for her partner/leader that she lower her pace to match him, so he won't fall behind.

Nora on the other hand, just pick Ren up from his feet, much to his horror and activate her semblance for a small boost in speed, where she easily catch up with Shigure and me.

"Where are we even going?!" Jaune asked me in a loud voice just enough for his team, along with Shigure and I could hear him. But, not loud enough to allow those far away to hear due to the explosion's noise overwhelm Jaune's loud voice.

Boom!*

"Finding team RWBY, then a way out of here!" I shouted back, right after another explosion was set off. 'And heading to Yukiko's place. I wonder if Momoyo changed her plan to going back to Mistral and instead of heading to her cousin's place.'

Luckily for Jaune and Ren, we almost ran into them; well, Jaune did and it was against Blake of all people.

"Ow..." Jaune grunt in pain, as he rubs his head with his left hand while his right hand was being used to help him push himself off the ground, but after he grunts, Blake let out a moan, which caused Jaune to look down at his right hand, which is on Blake's left breast.

Unconsciously, Jaune's right hand gives a good squeeze, which leads to Blake letting out another moan and that was when Blake's brain finish rebooting and realized someone was feeling her up. And that someone is Jaune, who looks right back at her with a blushing face.

Blake's eyes went slit and throw a jab to Jaune's throat, causing the guy to pale a little and cover his neck while looking at Blake in a fearful manner if it wasn't for his aura to protect him from Blake's sneak attack.

But that wasn't enough for Blake, so she uses aura enhance on her right fist and punches Jaune in the gut, launching him off her. And was ready to go an all attacks on Jaune, but we didn't have enough time for this as I grab the back of Blake's collar and pick her off the ground, without the usage of aura enhance.

"Okay, you can claw his face off later. We need to leave." I said to Blake, as the rest of team RWBY and JNPR get off the ground while Izaya himself alone didn't crash into anyone, but literally did a quick spin on his left heel to move out of the way.

"Huh...that...was fast." Shigure shares a look with Pyrrha, who have the same thought as well. After all, it usually takes a bit longer before their fiance/bother's [Revelation] would show the result of using it.

"Well, now that everyone is here. How are we going to do this? Fight or flight?" Izaya simply asks everyone, but was mainly looking in my direction, to send an unspoken question if it's even possible to get away from this place.

So I replied by nodding my head before looking back in the directions, where the explosions just finish going off. And discover a giant scrap metal look like it belongs to the left wings of a Bullhead coming straight at us.

"I thought you were joking that one time." Jaune said to her partner in a squeaky voice after recalling one of the days he decided to listen what Pyrrha had to deal with during one of her training sessions in the previous few years back in the Mistral Kingdom.

And one of them happens to be an incident, where flying strays scrap metal would end up coming right at from the sky or other time, hurling straight towards from other directions besides from the sky. This is when Pyrrha discovered her semblance and didn't have enough control over it at the beginning, which leads to having countless of metal objects being pulled towards her or pushed away all the time until she has some decent control over her semblance.

"Uh. Hehehe..." Pyrrha let out a nervous laugh, then quickly use her semblance to stop it from falling onto us, but she miscalculated on using her semblance over the separate left wing of a Bullhead, as she accidentally sent it back where it came from with ease.

"You know, I feel like this a pattern when it comes to us after coming to Beacon Academy." Yang said to everyone while all of us watch the left wing of a Bullhead disappear from our sights.

I let go of Blake's collar, dropping her back to her feet much to her relief. Then, start running off in the opposite direction where the explosion just occurred. As I continue using [Revelation] to find a path out of this place.

"Sorry, but I am not ready to face an army just yet." I said over my shoulders, which is true and not being humble at all. Actually, by myself alone, an army could beat me easily if I don't use my [Persona], [Magic], and [Fusion Spell/Skill]. Taking those variables would put me at a major disadvantage. Also, facing an army isn't something I could easily do with my current aura reserve, with just a few uses of my [Fusion Spell/Skill] or summon one of my [Persona] will drain my aura reserve before even half an hour is up.

"But, shouldn't we go help the others out though?! And we just protected Beacon last night! What's wrong with doing it again now?!" Ruby shouted at me, with the hope of getting me to help out since she learned a few things about me from Weiss and Pyrrha. One of them happens to be able to manipulate the surroundings with my will alone.

"Again, an army just arrived here. No way am I facing them without an army of my own to support me. If you say with Shigure and Izaya, with everyone here together could face the enemy. Then you're a bigger fool than I thought!" I shout back, causing Ruby to pout at me and with Yang growling at me for mocking her little sister.

Those that know about my true strength shared a look with each and didn't know if they should laugh or cry.

Facing an army alone wasn't something that could be easily happen; well, depending on the quality of the army, then yes, among the Arcana members could take down an army if the quality of the army is low enough, for them to wipe them out without having to resort to using all their cards.

But, the Manipulator, who is known to bend the [Elements] to his will, could easily take down an army if the battle doesn't take too long before running out of aura to manipulate the surroundings.

"Maybe we could help them out a bit?" Pyrrha asks me, showing a bit of support to her fellow sister team. Even Weiss looks like she wanted to help out too. No need to look at Izaya, since he can't really pick a different option unless he wanted to knock Weiss out to grab her and escape the Campus.

"Pretty sure you helped out already." I remind Pyrrha that she literally throw a Bullhead's left wing back where it came from. "Just don't pay any attention to which side you helped out."

Pyrrha went quiet for a few minutes after I said that, which I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Nonetheless, I rather not put a big target on my back just to help these people out against the invaders. Just because it's the right thing to do. But, if the Council of the Vale Kingdom discovers one of the Mistral Kingdom's worst criminals managed to enter their kingdom without their notices.

'Now that I think about it. Is the Council of the Vale Kingdom even alive after last night?' I thought to myself, and beginning to have second thoughts about giving a helping hand to the students and staffs, along with the soldiers if there aren't any spies among them.

"Hey, Izaya! Is the Council alive at the moment? Because if they aren't. I don't mind helping out at all." Once I asked this question, this draws the attention of everyone. As everyone waits for Izaya's answer, which could lead to a different outcome if the answer fit the conditions to gain powerful allies to defend Beacon Academy once more, maybe even the rest of the kingdom.

Omake: Lessons On What To Do To Capture Another's Heart: Kosaka Style

Lesson 1: Always Know Where Your Target Are

Shigure carefully hides inside a bush while changing to another one every minute or so. Not once making any noise unless she couldn't help it. If possible, she would even use something as a distraction. Which wasn't necessary due to the people nearby walking along and talking.

As she continues to stare at her target: Enma Nikos, for the past 3 hours. Waiting for the right moment to appear without causing her target to realize she been following him this whole time.

Quickly, she climbs up a building behind her to follow her target before she loses her sight of him. As her target started walking towards an area without bushes for her to hide in, and begin to roof jump, passing the target just so she could prepare herself in case he moves in other directions. So she doesn't have to waste any time to find another route to catch up without getting noticed by the target and the nearby people.

Lesson 2: Develop A Profile Of Your Target

Shigure quietly writes down in her journal due the scroll's battery tend to run out before she could finish her research of the day.

As she watches in silent of her target looking very carefully at what to buy for tonight's dinner. Shigure pause in her writing, then pulls out a [Binoculars] to get a good look at what tonight's menu.

'I wonder what Enma making with [Potato], [Cheese], and [Smoked Sausae]?' Shigure thought to herself and put away her [Binoculars] back into her bag and pull out her scroll to text her target, that she wants [Custardl Pudding] for dessert. Like always.

Shigure returns back to her journal and writes a few more things, one of them is that her target love to [Cook], even when he doesn't have to when we could have ordered takeout instead.

Lesson 3: Show That You Care About The Target

Shigure walks up to her target, who look back at her, then pass him a [Kitchen Knives] she worked on for the past few weeks now.

"Oh! Thanks, Shigure. I've been needing a new one after losing my previous one yesterday, somewhere." Enma gives his fiancee a smile of gratitude. "How about I make you something real quick as a thank you, for getting these for me. Wait, are these bought from the stores or you made them?"

"I made...them." Shigure continues to blankly stare at her target before she walks into the Dining Room to wait for her thank you meal while trying to save the smile of her target into her memory bank.

Lesson 4: Capture Your Target

"Uh, Shigure. Why am I tied up?" Enma questions his fiancee while looking very confused at the moment. One second he was going out to training, the next, he found himself tied to a chair.

Shigure blankly stares at her target, then pull out her book: Lessons On What To Do To Capture Another's Heart: Kosaka Style, to find out what the next step to do.

"The heck?" Her target sounded surprised, "Wait, what? Shigure is that-" Before her target could even speak another word. She knocked him out by spraying a [Sleepy-Time Elixir: Spray Bottle Version] onto her target's face.

"Lesson 5:...Do The...Deed?" Shigure tilts her head to the side with a confused look on her face, then her face started to turn red a little after she realized what it means once she continues reading further. "I'll...need to...do some...research."

Shigure glance over to her bookshelf, that happens to contain lots of smut. "Lots...of research." Then at her unconscious target. "And practice...lots of it." Shigure smile to herself, then quickly rush off to get ready after she unties her fiance first.
