Chapter 19 - A pop up[Unedited]

Ryuu sat down with his parents while watching the television as their dinner table and kitchen were the same place and the living room was just in front of them. They had simple coffee and Pandesal bread stuffed with hotdogs and eggs. 

He ate while looking at the news, ignoring some of them and drank his coffee, finding the taste of blood was better than the coffee.

"In later news there had been a strange sighting of flying…"

Ryuu almost spat his drink looking shocked at the news showing a video and photo of him flying in the air. He felt facefalming himself for being stupid enough to fly in the sky forgetting the possibility of people taking video. He only sighed trying to hide that it was him to his parents.

"Sheesh, people still believe in that crap!? Owww!"

"No swearing at the dinner table!"

"Hehehe sorry."

Ryuu was fortunate enough that his father wasn't one who believed in superstition and the supernatural but still believed in the Almighty. He continued to watch and soon saw a familiar sight.

"The next news is a tragic one, A recent investigation about human trafficking had been discovered. The police stated that they were able to rescue the people safely but before that arrive to see the gruesome sight of the people responsible for the human trafficking brutally killed. The cause of death is unknown as they were sliced and chopped in many pieces with some dead from gunshot...."

The news showed the bloody mess that was censored heavily that would easily make anyone vomit. Ryuu looked at his parents to see their reaction as he was the one responsible and afraid but to his surprise they were unfazed.

"Human trafficking ah? Well I think a quick death was a mercy for those scum."

His father angrily said looking at the people's rescues that vary from young teens to small children.

"Dear you shouldn't say, we don't know what those people reason for doing such a thing."

"I know but it would have been better if they were sent to prison and severely punished. They had a choice and chose the cowardly path!"

"*Sigh* Dear calm down….sister in law wouldn't want to get angry."

Ryuu heard them recalled his aunt that had been kidnapped in human trafficking and thought she was safed before getting sold end up in her death. She was played with by those scummed that led to her committing suicide.

It had happened before he was born and hardly any feelings why he wasn't in rage for them being human traffickers but still understood his father's pain.

"*Sighed* you're right…." 

After having breakfast with his parents, Ryuu soon excused himself telling them that he needed to go to his jobs which they had let him do. They trust him enough that he would do anything drastic which made him feel his heart being pierced. 

Ryuu disliked lying to his parents as they were the one who raised and loved him and owned everything from them.

He's not some selfish protagonist who would suddenly go lone wolf to protect them and focus on getting stronger to help and protect them. Ryuu learns about the supernatural and realizes that danger lurks in the shadows.

'They still hadn't opened the chat group. I guess it's best to start training since my breathing technique still hasn't acquired a style.'

The reason why his [Breathing technique] was only breathing was due to the lack of style in fighting. He first needs to train with any weapon and create his own technique. Ryuu pondered if it was possible to be trained by Shinobu but her style was completely different from his. 

He went ahead and bought some food along with pigs blood from the market to test something. His magic was better if there was an outside source to turn into his magic blood to increase its quantity and control. 

Ryuu soon arrived in the mountains where the oxygen was thin to help him train his lungs and create his own style of fighting. He laid down the plastic bag on the grass and immediately went to test his new skills.

His palm soon produced blood that was the same height as him and started to form hands and legs to hair and clothes that had the same appearance as Ryuu with the only difference his color was completely dark red and made of blood. 

He used his [Parallel Thought Processing] to split his mind and was able to control it without a problem. Ryuu felt that they shared the same thought without any delay as if the blood clone was him.

Though, he is not one who used this on the bed if he ever plans to do it. Ryuu felt disgusted at the thought of blood busting and focusing on training with his clone. 

He was unsure if it functioned similarly to Shadow clone to cut his training as the Blood Clone didn't need to breathe. 

Ryuu created more clones to see the limits and found that he was able to make 20 to 40 times without feeling a pulsating pain in his mind. Even if he had split his mind did not mean it wasn't taxing. 

He soon dispelled the clones since his skill was already recorded by the system and only needed to train his body in order to handle the skill. Ryuu sat down taking deep breaths, maintaining a constant rhythm, having a slight difficulty due to the high altitude causing the oxygen to grow thin. 

It was difficult to control while he tried training his body and instinct by running around the mounting to avoid any danger. Unlike the tanjiro who had trained in the mountains trying to avoid traps made by his master. Ryuu is left with the natural terrain to train him. 

"Haaa...haaa...dammit….I thought….it would be easy…"

He gasped for air having trained over five hours before taking rest to let his body heal itself. Ryuu could feel his muscle aching from the slip up he did while descending and ascending the mountains.

Ryuu sat down drinking the pigs blood feeling energized by the taste that was somehow sweet and sour compared to humans that tasted like fine wine. 

[Exhibitionist has gone online]

[Self Proclaimed Human had gone online]

[Flame Emperor has gone online]

[Titania has gone Online]

[Butterfly Hashira has gone online]

He was surprised to see them get online at the same time but smiled wanting to know how they were doing after learning their future. Ryuu thought that they were able to find a way to tell their comrades about the information.

[ Exhibitionist: Good afternoon everyone.]

[ Self Proclaimed : Hello, it's been a while.]

[ Butterfly Hashira : I am thankful for everything, Ryuu-san. I've read it and my future is truly Grimm…]

[Titania: I am as well. Now I'm well aware who my past was.]

[ Flame Emperor: Oh sorry I hadn't been able to chat for two weeks. I've been busy cultivating.]

[ Simp for Makima: It wasn't a problem and I should be glad that you believe me. I hope you don't treat it as set in stone. Also a week @Flame Emperor? It's only been two days though? ]

[Exhibitionist: Yeah for me it's been only two days. ]

[ Self Proclaimed Human: Mine is the same, five days have passed since you all were online.]

[Titania: How odd, mine it's been four days had passed ]

Ryuu was surprised to learn that their universe had a completely different timeflow. He had the same timeflow as Rias. His thoughts ponder if it was due to their timeline story having a different length as Vandalieu took 14 years to end while Xiao Yan 31 years to finish.

[ Simp for Makima: It appears that we have completely different timeflow and my theory is due how your timeline story should have been. Rias story only took a year which meant that mine hers is somehow closer.]

[ Exhibitionist: that is probably the most logical explanation in our situation. ]

[ Flame Emperor: Whoa that's surprising. You're probably right, that's perhaps the reason. ]

[ Self Proclaimed Human : Well, anyway thank you for showing my future. Now I know what I have to do and who to trust. I'm sorry I still haven't find a gift to give you.]

[ Simp for Makima : It's fine but if you receive the Demon king Blood then give a taste. I was able to unlock my magic and gotten [Blood magic] or rather it possible to upgrade it into [Blood Dragon slayer magic] 

[ Exhibitionist : Demon king Fragment? I might try to read your story as well, Vandalieu-kun ]

[Titania: Blood magic ah? A dragon slayer type too?? How is that possible!? ]

[Butterfly Hashira: I wonder if it's possible for me to gain magic?]

[Flame Emperor: Me too, I'm interested about this magic]

[ Simp For Makima : I don't know how but I'm able to upgrade it into one. As for you, Shinobu-san and Xiao Yan, I'll send you the book once I've finished copying the contents. Though, I must say it would take a while for you two to acquire magic due to having different worlds. I've only recently find out that my world has supernatural crap. ]

The two members understand and merely curious if they are able to acquire the ability to use magic. 

[ Exhibitionist: Oh interesting, care to tell what happened?] 

Ryuu smirked and started to tell the story that caught their interest. Shinobu was unfazed by his action since she didn't primarily hate demons but human scum as well. Soon as they were chatting a new notification pipes out.
