12 chapter12: swords

Today was the day we were not leaving this place and I was not going to go alone, because now I will be accompanied by Mikumo, since she also told me that she would go with me, and said something about having to take care of myself from danger or something So.

I'm not complaining, there is nothing wrong with having someone to talk to when you are alone and not get bored, in addition, Mikumo has the gift of silence that I like so much, she only talks a few times which is to ask me if he needed something or among other things .

Some time ago she gave me a beautiful Katana that has passed in her family from generation to generation.

Although I am not from Katanas. The katana I took from Michael I had planned to sell if it was worth anything, so I kept it by my side. But Mikumo seeing that, misunderstood and gave me her familiar katana that she found shortly after under the rubble of the temple that I destroyed.

Apparently that katana was well hidden and came to light just because I destroyed that place, obviously at first I refused but she insisted so much that I finally finished with two katanas on my waist.

Well, I'll try for a while, I'll be a swordsman, although I prefer the fists.

We were currently walking through the forest behind the temple to find a city because we do not know if there are any.

Some time ago when we were about to leave, I asked Mikumo a very stupid question, I asked her what was the way to go towards human civilization and there I knew that I screwed up. Because, how is she going to know where to find a city if she has never left her house, that time she just looked at me with a kind smile plastered on her face and said nothing to me.

The forest we were walking through had huge trees, some wild animals passed in front of us from time to time, there were different species of animals here in this immense forest, in the distance you could see a mountain that was where we were going, we planned cross it to see if there is a city behind it.

"But how excited I am." Mikumo said. "At last I was able to say goodbye to that damn place I've been trapped for a long time, ahem, with you by my side I am twice as happy, no, three times as happy, to have the opportunity and the fortune to travel by your side is wonderful."

Mikumo ended up jumping on top of me rubbing her cheek with mine. Seriously, it's very sticky and it's like a child.

I saw her that she was very excited, she looked like a little girl to be taken for a walk to a new place, she acts like a girl, an (old woman-girl). But truth be told, she's just very curious seeing new things for the first time in her life and I think anyone in her shoes would act that way.

Well, not as weird as she is, but even though I call her old she doesn't look like one, she looks like a young woman, and if someone were to say that even though she looks young on the outside, she is still an old woman on the inside.

But if you think about it, she is just a girl compared to the dragons Slayers, since they have more than 400 years to travel from the past to the future-present and they look young, then you could also call them that they are old, to I have not heard anyone say that Wendy is a (Milf-loli) even though the word Milf is misused there, and there is also the case of (Zeref). I haven't heard anyone talking about him being a lolicon because he got together with Mavis when he is over 400 years old and immortal.

I heard Mikumo start to hum while jumping, even though I noticed that what he was doing was dangerous, for more than one reason and I told him. "Hey, hey, soothe your boobs."

Mikumo was happily bouncing ahead and her breasts began to move from left to right looking for a way out into the open air.

She stopped and looked at me, approaching me she said. "But I just can't help it." Spreading her arms wide, she exclaimed. "This is the greatest happiness I have had in a long time, I thought it was my destiny to stay locked up for my whole life until you appeared as a prince saving the princess from danger."

I shook my head in amusement and warned him. "You just have to remember to be careful with people because not all of them are good, some just need to give them a look to get offended and attack you."

"Of course I know, and I will not let someone hurt him Yuujiro-sama, I will protect him from all danger." She said decisively clenching her fist, then she looked at me nervously bowing her head rubbing her hands playing with her fingers. "And then you will thank me and rub my head and then, and then."

And there she's acting weird again putting on that perverted sex predator face, I'm really wondering if I was right to bring her with me because it really scares me when she enters her crazy imaginations and ... Woah again she's drooling, but look like this, if she continues like this, I can't let the children see her in that state because it scares them, and if she continues to act like that in public I'm only going to be ashamed because she doesn't leave my side and everyone will see that we are together…

"So where will we go once we get to a city?" Mikumo asked after fantasizing.

"Oh, so you finally came out of your delusions, but first wipe off the drool that comes out of your mouth." She proceeded to clean herself in a hurry embarrassed, I sighed and told her. "Well and you asked me where we will go, well, I really don't know. Where do you want to go?"

"Well, to tell the truth, since that time when you told me the story of the giants and told me that they still exist, I have wanted to know them. What will those huge humans be like? How big will they be? How long will they measure? Height?" Mikumo replied.

That was not what I expected, so I began to explain to him that first we had to look for information about where that town was because maybe it is a little difficult to find because not many people know about the existence of giants or other species, and to tell the truth, know to one it may not be bad at all, how strong they will be.

Walking for a few moments in silence admiring the landscape ahead of us, a question came to mind. "Hey Mikumo, I had already forgotten and I forgot to ask you, but, have you got some information about the katana you gave me, do you know its history or does it have one, because I can see with the naked eye that it is not ordinary."

Mikumo seemed to think about it with her finger on her chin and said to me. "Oh, it's true, I was actually able to find some writings that contained a part of her story."

"The katana has the name of 'Onimaru' it is said that it was used to kill demons in ancient times, the color of its blade is pure white with a red handle, the story goes that the katana was forged with the sacrifice of a pure priestess and that was made in one night under the light of the full moon. "

"It is said that on full moon nights an energy is created that comes straight to the earth and that is why they took advantage of that energy to forge it. That katana was made to kill the demons that at that time were terrorizing humanity."

"It is also said that the woman who sacrificed herself to be able to make the katana was a strong and beautiful woman with white hair and that she had a small part of her hair that was red and maybe that is why the katana took that form."

What a story, I grabbed the white katana and stared at it for a while thinking of something. Don't tell me that afterwards that woman's spirit will come out and appear in front of me in the future! because that would be a double hassle, although it was nice to know that the katana was used to fight demons, as it will be very useful when I meet one on the road.

"And also find information on that black katana I had from the beginning." Mikumo said, I looked at her, and she continued with the information she obtained.

"That katana has the name of 'Muramasa' and it is a cursed katana, it is said that the Muramasa brings misfortune to the person who carries it, and that with each moment in which the user uses the katana to cut a person this he will take the souls of the dead to become stronger and stronger. "

"It is also said that the soul of the user is taken away at each moment in which she uses it, and when the wearer dies, the curse of the katana will also take the soul of the person who used it and will absorb it,.

After Mikumo finished explaining I was a bit surprised. I didn't really think that this katana that I originally thought was a trinket turned out to have some history, I mean, the original wielder was Michael, an idiot. Maybe he stole it from somewhere, I don't know, it's just my guess.

Curving your lips slightly, remove the katana and look at it carefully. So this katana every time I use it will take a small portion of my soul and when I die the curse will be complete and I will lose the opportunity to reincarnate, or that is what I understood, in addition to taking the souls of the people I cut.

Well for now I will take her with me by my side, it will be very helpful if I meet a demon.

After hearing the story of the katanas we continued walking through the forest that was becoming gloomy and somewhat creepy every time, but then I remembered that I had to say something to Mikumo.

"Hey Mikumo, would you mind not making that face when we're in public."

Mikumo turned to look at me and asked confused. "Which face?"

"You know, that crazy perverted maniac creepy face you put on when you're in your fantasies."

That was something direct, to Mikumo's poor and innocent heart, she was ashamed and turned her gaze refusing to meet my eyes.

Then it was a long walk in silence.
