Please trust me!

"I-Isao... your phone is broken..." 

"The light can't be turned on." 

Isao took his phone before he checked the RV, which he had just picked up before, and as expected, it stopped functioning, which made him sigh helplessly. 

"What's happening?" Yuriko looked at Isao, hoping to hear an answer. 

Isao didn't answer Yuriko's question and looked at Saya, who aimed a sniper at the side, staring at the dot sight, but unfortunately, she couldn't see anything. 

"Dammit, why was this happening?!" 

Saya cursed, wondering whether she had jinxed all of them. She thought nothing bad would happen, but a few hours later, all of this happened, which made her wish to curse her lips. 

"What's happening? Hurry up and tell me!" Yuriko also started to get anxious, as she felt that something huge might happen to her husband. 

"It's an EMP blast."

Isao thought he could escape from this plot, but it seemed he couldn't. 

"EMP blast?" 2x

While Yuriko and Shizuka were confused, Saya took the role of explanation from Isao. "I will take care of them here, Isao." 

"Thanks." 

Isao was glad that there was Saya, so he didn't need to explain the EMP blast to Yuriko and Shizuka, and because of that, he could focus on fixing the electric parts of the car. 

Nevertheless, hearing the explanation of the EMP blast, Yuriko was in a daze. 

H.A.N.E.

Or a high-altitude nuclear explosion. 

If a nuclear missile detonates high enough, gamma rays overload the air molecules with electrons, causing what is known as Compton Scattering. High-speed electrons are caught in the earth's magnetic field and are discharged over a large radius, causing an electromagnetic pulse. 

"It is fatal for electronic equipment! The electric pulse goes through the antenna and burns out the integrated circuits!" 

"In other words, we can't use any electric equipment..." Yuriko felt her body weak as if the strength had been drained from it. 

"Mama!" Saya held her mother's body, feeling confused as to why Yuriko appeared so weak. 

"I am fine, Saya. Thanks for catching me." Yuriko took a deep breath and then looked at Isao. "Isao-kun, can you fix the RV?" 

"Fortunately," Isao answered as he fixed his RV. "I have brought all the necessary equipment to change the burnt electrical parts." 

Yes, it was possible for him to fix this RV. 

Why? 

Not only because of the knowledge he gained from the professors he gained in the past, he also gained the knowledge from the skilled workers and professionals in this area when he got their DNA. Moreover, when he was in the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba," he also met famous 20th-century scientists such as Einstein, Tesla, James D. Watson, and many others, increasing his talents on various other things. 

After all, he had lived for several years, so it would be stupid of him if he didn't use his time to get stronger, right? 

Especially when he knew that his adventure definitely didn't end with just this world and the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba." 

There were many worlds that he hadn't ventured into, and they were all waiting for him. 

However, as he had become a husband of many of his women and a father of many of his children, he had to be responsible, and he definitely couldn't allow himself to die. 

Nevertheless, like Yuriko, Isao also felt worried about everyone who stayed at the Takagi Estate. Even though he knew that Takashi might not do anything harmful to the women, he could tell that an accident might occur, and this accident was caused by Takashi to everyone, especially at this critical moment when all the electrical equipment couldn't be used anymore due to the EMP blast.

'Dammit, who is the idiot who plans to use the nuclear bomb in this situation?' 

Isao wanted to smash those idiots' heads for being brainless and causing so much trouble to everyone. 

Still, even though he could fix this RV, he didn't have a special ability that allowed him to manipulate metal or machinery like in manga or anime, and to fix this RV, he had to use his hands, so even if he could do it, this process was relatively long. 

However, time waited for no one, and when Isao tried to fix the RV, the Takagi Estate was in trouble, and all of those who lived there were confused and in panic when all the electrical devices lost their function. 

"What's happening? There is something wrong with my phone!" 

"Why can't I use the computer?" 

"Is there a problem with the energy plant?" 

Everyone was in a panic when they thought the energy plant was attacked, but as expected, Souchiro, everyone's leader, quickly calmed everyone. "Calm down! For now, let's check the surrounding area! Tell everyone to be quiet, so they won't attract those things! And close up all the walls so those things can't enter our place!" 

"Yes!" 

Under his instruction, everyone started to move. 

However, it was impossible for Souchiro not to lose his calm, but he knew that he had to be calm in this situation. 

Still, as everyone started to move, Takashi, Hirano, and Takazo helped everyone move an item from the bus to the estate. Yes, as they had decided to regain everyone's trust, they decided to work hard for it. 

While it was easy for Hirano and Takazo as they were just being dragged on and kept fighting to save Alice from those things, Takashi had a hard time as everyone was looking at him with such disdain since they had seen him running away to save his life, leaving Hirano, Takazo, and Alice. 

Still, due to his diligence and also the protagonist's aura, everyone started to regain their trust in him. It might be slow, and everyone might not believe him, but he worked hard for it. 

Takashi was no longer that boy who was naive and thought that he would do everything by himself. Instead, if possible, he wanted to stay at the estate forever due to how safe this place was. Still, he had to say this place, which was located at the wall that separated those things from the neighborhood around the estate, was rather frightening. 

"I have to get over it!" 

Takashi wasn't sure why, but he felt those "things" were more frightening than he had thought, yet when he thought about how disappointed Rei was toward him, he knew that he had to overcome his fear! 

However—

"Huh? Why can't the bus move?" 

When everyone opened the concrete dividing wall for the bus to enter, the driver was startled when the bus couldn't move any longer. 

"What's wrong?" 

"I am not sure. The bus can't move!" 

Naturally, this caused a panic, as they moved fast, or else those "things" would come closer and surround them.

"Hu-Hurry up!" 

"I-I am trying! But the bus can't move!" 

Everyone was in a panic, but then they saw those "things" started to move toward their direction due to the commotion. 

"Ru-Run away!" 

"Let's run away!" 

"C-Calm down! Don't make a single noise, or else you will attract them!" Takashi shouted, telling everyone to keep quiet, but at the same time, causing those "things" to run in his direction. "Wh-What?!"

Yet, Takashi was even more dumbfounded when Hirano and Takezo ran away before him! 

Yes, Hirano and Takezo had run away, but this wasn't shameful since Takashi did the same thing yesterday.

Moreover, Takashi was about to do the same thing again! 

So, don't blame them for being ruthless and leaving him behind! 

"You guys!" Takashi was angry since they should have been able to work hard together to fight those "things," but why were all of them running away?

"Wa-Wait! Don't leave me behind!" 

The driver and those who were inside the bus were startled since all of them had run away, and naturally, they also tried to run away, but they were too late! 

Those "things" had surrounded them, and all of them used their teeth to bite into their flesh!" 

"ARRRGGGHHH!" 

"No! No! Don't get close to me!" 

"I don't want to become them! Don't bite me! Please help me!" 

As those "things" bit all of those people and turned them into like "them," they quickly put their attention to the estate, entering through the gate that hadn't been closed by Takashi, Hirano, Takezo, and the others. 

On the other hand, Saya, Yuriko, and Shizuka kept waiting for Isao and helped him in case he asked them for help, and soon, their hard work paid off. 

Brrm!

Once again, the RV was able to move, and all of them quickly entered before they quickly drove toward the Takagi Estate!

Nothing will happen! 

Do you want to see him as Papa in "Kimetsu no Yaiba"?

Also, have you of you watched "Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon"?
