Meeting 2

After talking with Yasaka while they were going to her base he could understand the situation, it turned out that these guys who were chasing her had captured her daughter when she came to rescue her.

She was surprised by a suppression skill that they used among all those who were chasing her, he had to admit that it had to be too incredible to be able to take someone of high rank to such a state.

The strange thing is that he didn't know this new faction that rose against the Yokai, so he thought that the future would change due to his actions, they quickly reached a deserted place or at least he believed that until they crossed some barrier, he was surprised.

Yukio: "Incredible..."

Yasaka: "Haven't you seen a barrier like this before?"

Yukio: "No... I haven't really seen anything except what a normal human would see."

Yasaka was perplexed how it would be possible that someone at his rank wouldn't experience things like this but saved her questions for later, at this moment her daughter was hurt.

Yasaka: "For now let's go in, sorry I can't give you a nice welcome but bear it for now."

He quickly shook with his hand and smiled "You do not have to welcome me, experiencing this type of barrier in itself is already a reward."

Yasaka felt that this child was quite funny and smiled at him as they moved forward.

---

After a few minutes of walking, he took him to what appeared to be a large room, Yasaka, went to take his daughter to be checked while he sat in a free place to talk to the system.

( System How much have I changed the future? )

System *DING* [Analyzing]

System [User has changed 20% of the future]

(Ugh... So little? I thought I had done well until now)

System: [Note that the gears are beginning to reform because the user has not caused a big change they are trying to return to their origins]

(I see, that means that if I take with me someone who is supposed to be bad in the future towards the path of good, will the gears change? )

System: [Yes, you must still change all the gears until you reach 100% if not each one will return to the starting point destroying and reaffirming the infinite cycle]

(It's hard... At least I have some knowledge about this world but because I keep making changes I don't really know if my plans will keep going... Well let's hope and see later)

Yasaka: "Yukio-kun?" He saw Yasaka enter the hall, she had a bandaged arm, he imagined she suffered some injuries.

Yukio: "Is something wrong?"

Yasaka: "Oh no, it's the opposite I want to thank you for saving me in that difficult moment if it hadn't been for your help my daughter would have left this world together with me" He saw her smile bitterly, he felt a little sad seeing her like this.

Yukio: "Don't worry... Does it hurt?" he pointed to her bandaged arm.

Yasaka: "Are you worrying about me?" She asked in a confusing manner, as a human caring about a Yokai is strange, what a weird child.

Yukio: "I would lie if I said no... Would you mind accepting this?" He took out a healing pill that cost him five hundred tokens but he knew it will be worth it!

Yasaka: "What is that?" Her curiosity was triggered by that green sphere that was releasing energy.

Yukio: "It's a healing pill that will help you heal your arm..." he looked at her and could see her caution, so he smiled hollowly "It's not like I'm going to poison you after saving you."

Yasaka could feel her face getting hot because that's what she was thinking, but she applauded and took the pill in one gulp.

Soon she felt strange energy traveling inside her body.

She was a little scared but realized that this child for some reason saw her with a loving and attentive look.

The sensation inside her body was refreshing when soon her arm felt completely healed, she was surprised and looked at this child in front of her.

Yukio: "If you keep looking at me like that, I'll be embarrassed, you know?"

Yasaka "*Cough* Excuse me... Could I know exactly what that pill was?"

Yukio: "I don't mind telling you but..."

Yasaka: "Is it private? If so, I won't force you."

He felt like Yasaka really wasn't a bad person and when he wanted to tell her there came to noise.

Yukio: "Actually when I saved you I was thinking about going to eat, therefore... *grr*" She heard his stomach growling.

Yasaka: "Jajajaja you just had to say it before! I'll make something for you."

He was really embarrassed ...

---

In the middle of lunch he told Yasaka about the healing pill, she was a very funny and sincere woman. When he thought about leaving, she wondered if he still had some healing pills, offering me a lot of money, he knew it was for her daughter, so in fact, he gave it for free.

The only thing he asked her was to keep in touch, he liked to chat with her, but he had to leave because the meeting would start soon and he had already promised that he would attend.

---

The meeting was very typical, they thanked him for publishing his work in their company or for asking him if he was going to launch a new one.

He only half answered, he did not want to bother with that, but he told them that soon he would send another game that would make everyone happy after his wallet got fat.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still time before the Brooch was worn out, he decided to go to the bank, he wanted to have cash and ended up making a massive withdrawal that surprised the manager, but he told him he had come with a car. Therefore, he did not ask, although it was really a lie, he put it in his dimensional pocket while he disappeared from the place using [Light Steps].

It's not like he stole it, it's that he knew he'd be watched when he left, it was annoying!

---

When he got home, his parents greeted him as usual, he did not see Issei, he assumed he would be with Katase, and they introduced him to her, and she was a very strict and polite girl if you asked him.

He entered his room and wanted to rest after this arduous day but he heard a sudden voice.

And when he saw those who were there, he knew he wouldn't have his happy rest...

--- POV Yasaka ---

I am Yasaka, leader of the Kyoto faction, I will not say much about myself if it was not for my situation and my encounter with an interesting child.

At that moment I was surrounded by several subjects who threw some kind of skill together against me, it was really strong enough to weaken me to the point that I was hurt by simple demons of medium level even, still I did not surrender, they had captured my daughter and I had to save her with all my will, finally I made my way to my little girl taking her in my arms while I escaped.

I could hear their screams as they followed me.

"You won't escape!"

"Don't run away dirty Yokai" "They only know how to speak well"

"Is that how a leader behaves" "JAJAJA fleeing weak enemies than scum"

Their insults actually made me angry in the best possible way but I wasn't going to stop if it wasn't for that strange ability: I could have won, but now carrying my daughter in my arms it would be impossible to win, so I kept running as fast as possible, but I was very hurt.

I didn't know how much time had passed since I started to run away but my wounds were getting worse and sometimes they hit me with magic, I wanted to try to transform myself but if I did, I knew that I could endanger my daughter, so I kept on running.

I still heard the leader of the group yell at me.

Persecutor "Surrender! Surrender now dirty Yokai, now is your last chance!"

I wanted to kill them all, I kept running until we reached an open field and I could not continue like this, I had no strength, and I was bleeding so much that I would probably lose consciousness, that's when the leader of the group arrived before he stopped in front of me.

Persecutor "JAJA were you not so proud before, now you are in this state did you not fall too low?"

Yasaka: "Shut up! The only thing you know is how to do low tricks, they're scum.

Persecutor "You bitch! You use such words, being a filthy Yokai you are not qualified for that."

Yasaka: "Why are you attacking us? My faction has never had a problem with you!"

Persecutor "It's true, as you say you have never had any problem with us, but we do not like your faction that is why we have to eliminate all of you dirty Yokai haha."

Persecutor "But rejoice at least you'll die with your daughter Don't you think it's a good ending?"

Yasaka: "You're a bastard! You will see that I will not go out without ..." I wanted to continue insulting him but I had realized that his companions were nowhere to be found and I heard an order to be murdered together with my daughter, I squeezed her hard to try to protect her but after a while, nothing really happened.

I could hear him muttering something as he turned around ready to run.

I did not understand what was happening, but soon everything changed when a small child tore his heart out.

What happened is that for a few seconds I did not see a child, but a young man, I did not know if it was because my eyes were deceiving me, maybe it was fatigue.

Anyway, I tried to get away a little, but I was very tired, I could not do anything.

He approached me and began to talk to me, I did not know why he adopted such a strange posture with such cheesy words, but he made me laugh and the tension in my body relaxed.

He offered to help me and I accepted willingly, I saw no bad intentions in his eyes and I felt safe by his side, so I showed him the way while protecting me at some point we began to talk.

Yasaka: "Why did you really do it?"

Yukio: "Ah? What do you mean?"

Yasaka: "I'm talking about saving us... I don't know you and you could not have done it on a simple whim..."

I saw him smirk at my words, I really felt like hitting him, but his next sentence made me shudder.

Yukio: "I guess because I found you so beautiful, it would be a shame if you died."

I was speechless, I knew it was a child, but even, so I felt happy for his compliment since I did not want to continue with the subject, I decided not to respond.

---

I brought him to my base's hiding place, I did not care if he knew where it was, anyway I had already recovered a bit if we had a fight I could easily win.

I took him to a room and then I took my daughter inside to cure her.

???: "Is it really safe to bring that human here?"

???: "Please, consider this is totally dangerous."

???: "We should capture him and find out his motives."

Yasaka:" No, don't do anything to him, he saved me and it's a debt that I have to pay, if you attack him, it will be taken as a betrayal towards me!" I didn't know why but I felt a bit upset with the way they talked about the child, he saved me and I had to repay him.

I left that place to enter the main hall. I saw him sitting and I approached.

When his gaze passed over my arm, I saw the sadness in his eyes and I could not help asking if he was worried, and his answer was yes, I felt something warm in my chest.

Since we met, he has been showing concern for me, I could not understand this human.

Soon we spoke a little more and I felt very comfortable with this child, his age was like that of my daughter but his way of speaking seemed like a total adult, soon after he gave me a strange pill that cured all my wounds in seconds, which impressed me and I asked him to tell me about it, at first I thought he would not, but he told me the finest detail I felt very happy with his way of being.

Yukio: "It's time to go, I have some things to do."

When he said he was leaving, I did not want to let him go, we barely knew each other, but he felt like an old friend of a lifetime, I liked to chat together.

Yasaka: "Can not you come back later?" I was ashamed of my question.

Yukio: "No ... As you can see, I'm hardly a child and my parents do not know anything about what I do, if I do not get home it would be problematic". He scratched his head and I understood his words. After all, I was also a mother.

In the end, I asked him for a pill for my daughter, I offered him any amount of money he wanted but to my surprise, he gave it to me for free, he told me that it was the payment for a good conversation.

Yukio: "Can we stay in touch?"

His question was the same that I wanted to ask a few moments ago but I nodded and gave him my information, we have long since bought those devices called phones.

Yukio: "Bye, I hope to see you soon."

I dismissed him waving my hand and looking at his back, soon I noticed again that previous phenomenon, for a few seconds I saw him again as a young man of twenty years...

Yasaka: "Yukio-kun ... Actually, who are you?"
