Everything seems so smooth?

On the morning after Tsukasa had rested enough, he practiced swordsmanship in the morning.

As expected, with one arm, it was quite an inconvenience for him.

His "Drying Pole" was harder to use since it lacked the strength he used to have.

While his skill wasn't that different from before, he was weakened much since he only had one arm.

However, the eyes of the people who saw him were in a daze since even if he had one arm now, they couldn't see the difference and were still as strong as ever.

Yet it didn't surprise him since the difference in their skill was massive. It was impossible for them to see the difference in the subtleness of their skill.

While many people were looking at him during his morning practice, he ignored them and continued to try various of his techniques.

Riveria looked at Ais, Tiona, and the others for a moment, but she felt their gazes were slightly strange.

"Ais, can you fight me?" Tsukasa suddenly said.

Ais was surprised, but she nodded without hesitation. "Okay."

The two started their fight, and as expected, Ais lost.

Ais blinked her eyes and asked, "You're still strong." She wasn't surprised that she had lost since she knew how strong Tsukasa was. However, she was surprised that losing an arm didn't affect his strength. Instead, she felt his power was more subtle.

"Yeah, but losing an arm makes me weaker, and it is harder to use the "Drying Pole."

"You want to get a new weapon?"

"I have ordered from Tsubaki. It should be ready before the second attack."

However, Tsukasa wanted to train more, so he would be ready for the second attack on the Knossos. He thought for a while and suddenly got an idea where he could train under high pressure.

'Well, I've also promised that boy.'

There were many things that he had to do, which made him sigh.

"Line, follow me later."

Line, who had been waiting for him, nodded.

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't say anything, giving them space.

They knew that it was wrong for them to think so, but they couldn't help but think that the sacrifice of his arm wasn't worth it. Yet if they dared to say that, they knew what kind of price they had to pay.

The unity of the Loki Familia was, without a doubt, the strongest among all the Familia in the Orario.

Tsukasa decided to sacrifice his arm for Line, and everyone was happy that she was alive, so let's just leave it like that.

However, Line felt it was so heavy that even if no one blamed her, she felt she was a burden to him. His actions showed how much she meant to him, but at the same time, he also meant a lot to her. Even if he couldn't become her, and she could be only his lover, she didn't mind since she just wanted to stay with him now.

Staying by his side, watching him, and taking care of him were the only things that she wanted.

"Let's go to my house."

After they ate and cleaned up, Tsukasa whispered quietly to Line.

"...Okay."

Line blinked her beautiful eyes and didn't know what to say for a while.

Tsukasa was too lazy for words, and when they arrived at his house, he quickly took her down and did whatever he wanted with her.

Line also accepted him and even sought him more while crying.

Tsukasa knew Line had bottled up her emotions.

A gentle word wasn't something that she wanted since it would only make her guilty.

The right thing to do was release all the emotion bottled up inside her by doing whatever he could with her.

The two stayed in his house, isolated from everyone, and lost their rationality.

Line was always in the submission position and even wanted him to impregnate her.

However, Tsukasa wasn't ready for a child, and if he had a child, Line definitely wasn't the first one.

They kept doing it, and it wasn't until the afternoon that they stopped.

Tsukasa still had energy, but Line couldn't even lift her fingers. Still, she felt she was alive as ever.

"...Don't do that again," Line said while trembling and crying. It might be because part of his body was inside her that her recovery was also high, but she didn't care now since she wanted to tell him that she didn't want to see him because of her.

"You don't need to worry. I won't be hurt again."

Tsukasa wiped her tears and said, "Anyway, stop crying. It's annoying."

"How cruel!"

"It's too late for you to learn that since I won't let you go now."

"Don't let me go. I am going to be yours forever." Line only wanted him now, and she didn't need anything else.

Somehow Tsukasa wouldn't be surprised if this girl dared to do anything for him.

"Then, can you go again?"

"...Wait, let me rest for a moment." Line must admit this guy was a beast.

They looked at each other before they laughed as they pressed their foreheads.

"I love you." Line said those words and kissed his lips without waiting for his response.

Tsukasa also didn't answer since he knew this was what she wanted.

The two didn't stay in his house forever and went to Tsubaki's studio, wondering whether his sword was ready.

Still, as expected, Tsubaki was startled when she saw him. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"I am okay. How is my sword?" Tsukasa asked.

Tsubaki was annoyed and asked, "Do you think I only care about your dick and ability? I also care about you!" She was angry at his perfunctory response since she would be lying if she didn't have a feeling toward him.

Line didn't say anything and stood slightly behind him, but she said, "It was because of me."

"You...?" Tsubaki frowned while looking at Line.

"Okay, enough." Tsukasa stood between them and said, "You can see my arm now. It's hard to use the Drying Pole. I am going on my revenge next week, and if possible, I want to be ready for it."

"Revenge? Do you need my help?"

"No."

Tsubaki thought for a moment and said, "The katana isn't ready yet, but the wakizashi should be ready in three days. Is that okay?"

"It's okay. I only have one arm now. I can't use two weapons."

"......"

Tsubaki and Line weren't sure whether this was a joke or not.

"What about a prosthetic arm? Do you want me to make it for you?" Tsubaki asked.

"I can make it myself."

"Oh! I can't wait to see that!" Tsubaki was somehow excited when she thought about what kind of prosthetic arm he would make.

The three talked for a while, but when their talk ended, Tsubaki pulled him to the room and said, "I can handle your weapon later. Let's do it now."

Tsukasa could fight back, but he couldn't.

"I will help." Line closed the door and even locked it before she followed.

"Okay, let's do it together." Tsubaki agreed.

"........" Tsukasa.
