85 Explanation

Miu immediately went over to the box and snatched the kitten from it.

She hugged the kitten tightly after getting it from the box and spoke.

"Kitty~! Say meow~ desu wa!"

"Miu, her name is Kushiro, remember that."

"Kushiro? That's a good name! So you're Kushiro, desu wa!" Miu cutely spoke and gently touched the cat's chin. The cat seemed to have enjoyed Miu's gentle touch.

Hito continued. "By the way, I brought Kushiro here so that you can adopt and take care of it as your pet!"

Miu was looking at Hito with a surprised expression with faint hints of joy and worry mixed in it, and replied. "R-really?! B-but…"

She then looked towards Shio, Akisame, Kensei, Shigure, Apachai and her Grandfather Hayato.

She turned gloomy after looking at their faces as she thought that they wouldn't accept her getting a pet cat.

Seeing Miu's sad face, Hayato spoke.

"Miu, if you want a pet cat for yourself then you can naturally adopt it and take care of it."

After Hayato said that, Shio, Akisame, Kensei and Apachai nodded.

"You can take care of it Miu." 

"Yes, having another pet other than Tochumaru is not bad."

"You've been taking care of our needs for so many years now. It's good that you have something else to spend your time with other than practicing and doing the daily chores."

"Apachai doesn't mind! Apachai likes every animal!"

Seeing that everyone agreed, Miu was very happy! But she again remembered that Shigure didn't say anything yet, so Miu asked her.

"Shigure-san! Will you allow me to accept Koshiro as a pet?" Miu had to get everyone's approval before taking care of Koshiro.

Shigure stared at Koshiro for a while and then replied. "I don't mind… but remember that Tochumaru is... stronger than… any cat… he is the strongest pet!"

After getting her approval, Miu was very happy! She even forgot the fact that Hito had swapped bodies with somebody yesterday.

Getting inside her own world, she ignored everyone else except Kushiro. Leaving her to her imaginations, Hayato called Hito.

"Hito, come inside. Let's talk about what happened to you yesterday."

Hito nodded, and went inside the main hall where all of the masters of Ryōzanpaku were gathered.

===

Akisame let Najimi train by himself for now, because he had to join the discussion about Hito's mysterious body swapping.

Akisame and everyone in the Ryōzanpaku had heard about it from Hayato and Miu, which made them interested in it.

It was unbelievable but they still believed it since it was Hayato himself who had informed them about this situation. After all Hayato had never lied to them ever. True, he might've kept secrets from them but lying that never happened, the guy simply couldn't lie.

Now that everyone was ready to listen, Hayato spoke.

"Do you remember what happened yesterday?"

Hito shook his head. "No, not at all. After all, yesterday the person inside my body wasn't me, but the girl named Miyamizu Mitsuha."

Hayato stroked his beard. "Oh? So you know about her?"

"Well yes. Since yesterday, no in fact, 3 years ago I've been inside her body."

Akisame suddenly asked a question. "3 Years ago? Could you explain about it more clearly?"

Hito started to explain in depth. "When I was inside her body, I started gathering a lot of information to understand my situation. That was  the first thing I did so that I could find a way to get out of that predicament and return to my body. While gathering information, one of the first things I noticed was that Mitsuha's timeline is different from our timeline. It's 2018 in our timeline but in hers it was 2015! We are 3 years ahead of her."

Hearing that everyone was shocked to the core, they all had different kinds of  thoughts running in their heads at the same time. Every single one of them had seen weird and strange phenomenons in their lives but this…

Transporting to 3 years ago in the past, and that too in another person's body of opposite gender? How shocking it was! In this room no one was more shocked than Akisame. Since he was the one who was closest to understanding magic, magical based mysterious phenomenons. So, he understood better than anyone that what Hito experienced was a magical concept of highest caliber and almost impossible to experience.

The concept of Time, it was really mysterious and now his first disciple had actually experienced this concept by transmigrating into the past? How bizarre it was!

Hito explained all of his experiences when he was inside Mitsuha's body. But of course, he hid some important facts, like the system and about him wearing a female uniform!

Kensei seemed to have found something strange on how Hito explained his experiences in Mitsuha's body, so to clarify his doubts he asked.

"Since you were in a female body and you also went to her school, which means you were wearing a school uniform for girls right?"

Hearing that Hito stayed solemn and looked at Kensei with a smile and spoke.

"No way! I'd never do that."

Kensei shook his head and bluntly spoke. "No you totally did."

Hito continued to use his lying skill, but he gradually realized his lying skill wasn't perfect since Kensei didn't believe him at all!

Which made him think 'Should I upgrade Lying to Monster grade? Let myself become the incarnation of lying itself?' 

Thinking about it for a while he decided not to. Since he already found out the hidden problem of the Monster grade. it was too hard to control and he had little to no control over his judgement when the skill got activated automatically. He needed to find a way to curb this problem before he upgraded anything to Monster grade.

After that Kensei said some teasing words like, wasn't it nice to be a girl? Did you see her private parts? Did you perhaps grope her boobs? Was it nice seeing her naked body while bathing? 

And many more, but either way Hito didn't answer him no matter what how many times he asked, and no matter what he said. He kept his mouth shut and pretended that Kensei didn't speak by ignoring his existence.

After that question and answer session, nothing really changed. It was just a one time interesting chat, nothing more.

But they still had to be ready for the next time when Hito and Mitsuha swapped bodies.

Akisame created a new kind of machine especially for Hito. It was a punching machine. But, it wasn't just any punching machine. It could literally take 100 tons punching force, but nothing would happen to it!

And Hito needed to reach at least 5 tons of physical strength within 10 punches or else the machine would switch to offensive mode and attack him instead!

Hito didn't have any idea how Akisame made this cutting edge technology! But heck, it was super good! Even the most professional inventors couldn't keep up with Akisames' inventions.

After all, as long as he had the necessary tools and resources, he could make literally anything that could be imaginable and unimaginable alike, that's how smart Akisame is.

However, though he was smart he wouldn't dare to say that he was the smartest, after all there were many other monsters of creativity out there in the world.

It's just, they didn't want the world to know about them and intervene on their peaceful lives.

Hito had finished his training with Akisame, Kensei, Shio and Apachai.

Now, he decided to learn about weapons from Shigure! It was finally time for him to learn it! He wanted to be a master of weapons, and he wanted it so badly!

He looked for Shigure so that he could learn from her. it didn't take long for him to find her, since she was in the attic as she usually was.

"Shigure! Can you please teach me how to use weapons now?"

Hearing that Shigure immediately went towards him and asked.

"You.. want to learn… from me?"

Hito nodded with a smile. "Yes, can I?"

Shigure nodded, she might've looked stoic on the outside but on the inside she was really happy and excited to teach Hito about weapons. She wanted to share her passion with Hito and for some reason the thought of it brought her immense amounts of joy. Joy, unlike she ever felt before.

"Then… let's start?!"
