CHAPTER 31

They were in the limousine, next to it was the woman who was gently healing him.

"It's surprising that you continue as if nothing had happened with those injuries and blows you suffered, you really surprise me,...Shouko-chan."

"It's like you don't feel anything."

And it is that in fact...he doesn't feel anything.

Shouko already verified it when he manipulated his mental power with his mother and made her not feel pain, he has also done it with himself.

Practically, he activates it when he is going to train to be able to give a good performance, but he does not have it activated all the time, because, for some reason, those who have this inability to feel pain, are in the hospital all day, since your brain does not send alerts of the problems thatthe body suffers.

So shouko only activates it at necessary times and when it is an emergency.

Also through that, he can manipulate many things about himself, such as accelerating the pumping of his blood, making it faster, or accelerating his regeneration, etc.

But obviously, it doesn't do it because, so far it's not necessary.....or well, until today.

Shouko found it strange to let this woman begin to heal her wounds, but she wanted answers so, she just left her.

-Will you tell me, how is that, to make me the strongest person?

"Calm down dear, everything in good time."

"That I still need to heal your wounds completely."

-If the people you sent me to attack didn't feel like killing me, it would have been better.

"Well-well, look on the bright side, you're still alive."

"You surprised me, how could you adapt to my boys and finish them off, even with a disadvantage, they are not the strongest, but they are scary."

Minutes later.

"And...ready with this, that's it."

Shouko had bandages and Band-Aids on the cuts and bruises she had.

But if he put on clothes, it wouldn't be as noticeable.

- Now if you spoke?.

"Now you can ask me, all you want."

-First of all.....because I, how come I caught your attention, it can't be just because of that 1-minute encounter we had.

"Actually that was just the beginning."

-?.

"First to answer your question, I will tell you who I am."

"I am Kure Yakusha."

"And I come from the Kure clan."

-A clan?

"That's right, my Kure Clan, it is a powerful league of assassins who are notorious in the criminal hell, we are a very influential clan in a region of this city."

"My clan comes from the sakura period and has gone through 1300 years, through a selective stage, adoption of martial techniques and external combat arts."

"In the process of selective reproduction, we take care of connecting with the strongest so that the next generation is very powerful."

[That is something logical, but very primitive].

Shouko began to listen to everything Yakusha told her.

-And....then, what do I have to see, that you want to catch me to get pregnant, you're crazy if that's the case.

"Of course not dear, wouldn't that make a lot of sense, having your little friend down there?"

-Hey?.

"You are surprised that I know your secret, we have been professional assassins for years, nothing escapes us.....and also because in your medical examinations, it did not say anything about that."

He said that taking out some papers.

-And why do you think it would be a secret.

"Well, if it doesn't say anything on these sheets and you have it...add 1+1 and you'll see the answer."

-...

-How much do you know about me?

"Shouko komi, her parents are Shuuko komi and a younger brother named shousuke komi, she studies at Itan private high school, she is praised as God in her school and it is said that she is the owner of a very dangerous sect, Height 1.81, I weigh 82 kilos."

"Although I think these last two have changed a bit."

"Current author of the novel 'Kimetsu no Yaiba', reserved and not very sociable person, good grades, also attached to the kendo club and of course to the gym where we met."

-...

[Okay knows.....knows a lot].

"Don't be too surprised, my clan dominates this entire region, looking for information is easy and we always do to select our victims."

What do you really want from me?

"Before that, how do you want me to treat you, as a man, as a woman or both?"

-Man.

"It is OK darling".

"You know the day I met you it wasn't my intention either, I was just there training with a friend, it was just a coincidence that I saw you break a record like it was nothing."

-Only for that?.

"As a selective breeding clan, we have a very keen eye for people who have great potential and your darling, you do."

"Not just breaking 2 records, in the course of two weeks and without the body of a professional athlete."

"That's why I investigated you, I took time, a whole week to be able to do our meeting, I was watching you inch by inch every movement you made through the gym cameras and carrying that weight, dear."

"It's surprising huh."

Yakusha made a flirtatious movement with his elbow on Shouko's arm.

"Lastly, we also put a camera in the bathrooms, because we almost always lost sight of you, so after seeing your movements and how you came out, we followed you and called the boys to say hello."

[I suppose I didn't go unnoticed, when they watched my movement centimeter by centimeter, I also would have known that they would do that, until they controlled the GYM cameras, that's sick].

-Get to the point.

"Example, okay."

"You have potential and a lot, but you are still a small weapon that needs to be polished, but don't worry"

"Because that's where I come in, I will make you reach your limits and you can be the strongest person in the world."

-Aha, what do you want in return?

"Oww, how bad shouko-chan, how can you think that about me, I just want to help you with all my heart."

-You come from a clan of assassins, so much heart I don't think you have.

"Very funny, Shouko-chan."

"Anyway, it's just something simple, when you're the strongest person, have a baby with my daughter."

-Hey?.

Do you want me to have sex with your daughter?

"You see, my daughter is the member with the highest potential in our entire clan, you could say that she is the strongest, but obviously that has made her reproductive selection have the same potential as my daughter."

"Although, if you don't agree to be with my daughter, you can take me too."

Yakusha opened her shirt a little, showing shouko her breasts.

-I also have one of those, so your charm will not have as much effect.

Shouko looked indifferently at Yakusha, while Yakusha pouted.

[Become the strongest, although I need power to be able to have peace of mind and freedom, it is not that I get it so fast with the gym, if we compare it with real fights].

[It would also be with kendo, I keep fighting with saeko and I still can't beat him if it's based on sword fighting, I still need it, but my progress is fast, so sooner or later I'll be able to beat him and when that day comes, I'll have to seek a real and more intense fight].

[Now this proposal is not bad, get ethical because they are treating me cattle, I never hesitated in that kind of thing, so if you want me to get your daughter pregnant, then I will do it, if I can get stronger faster, I think that it would be a good deal].

[Ash....I would have to talk to Najimi about these things, because sooner or later she would find out, so...why hide it, it's not like I feel something for that girl, it would be the same as deal I have with Yamai, so it won't make much difference].

[But now....what would happen, yes...].

-Kure-san.

"Don't be so cordial Shouko-kun, you can call me by my name."

-Then, Yakusha-san.

"Tell me dear?".

-What happens if I want to deny all this.

"Oh....it wouldn't matter that much shouko."

"If you want to refuse, you can do it, we are not here to force you or anything like that."

"There would only be a small detail."

-Which.

"If you refuse....your whole family will die."

At that moment, Yakusha presses a button and a mini television appears and turns on, it shows us 4 perspectives, one was of some undercover men who covered the area of ​​the house, another was a perspective from afar and you could see your house widely.

Others was the perspective of a group of men preparing to activate something and finally, a man was shown who had a communicator and who began to speak.

• We are here to listen to the order, if nothing is said in 1 minute, we will begin to act with the mission.

"As you can see, Shouko-kun, that's the little detail, but there's no one here to force you into anything, only now....you have 1 minute...or your whole family will die."

Yakusha's warm smile expressed a macabre aura.

Shouko saw all this and…well, she didn't give the expected reaction.

He did not show nervousness, despair, sadness or anything like that, it is now where his habit of hiding his feelings would work well.

Basic rule, do not show your enemy your weakness.

This was like the typical scene where the villain finds that the hero has someone special to protect and kidnaps her, getting into a conflict and being able to trap the hero like a guinea pig.

And if he now showed that he cared about his family, they would use that constant resource, for another possible threat and so on constantly.

So shouko saw all this and her indifference continued.

Shouko saw to one side that there was a container with cookies and orange juice.

-Can?.

"Eh?...Yes, they're not poisoned, just in case."

50 seconds.

Shouko without further ado began to eat calmly.

"Well, you already decided to accept shouko-chan...".

45 seconds.

"Shouko-chan, I'm talking to you."

-Shh...., I don't like to talk when I'm eating so be quiet."

"Hey?".

40 seconds

"Play brave huh, let's see how far you can go."

-They are good, you can tell that they are of quality.

Yakusha had narrowed his eyes and watched as shouko ate.

30 seconds.

"Time is running out on you shouko-chan, decide quickly."

Shouko swallowed the last sip of her drink.

-I don't decide anything...if you want to kill them, well, what can you do...I'm here and they're there, I can't do anything.

"Darling don't play brave with me, just accept."

-You know, what's more... you would do me a favor.

"As?".

-I was already thinking about living alone, buying an apartment, and I would have to talk to them and you know, the typical conversation they give their children when they want to become independent, is a nuisance.

-You would be saving me time on that, so thank you.

20 seconds.

"This is not a game my boy, so leave your jokes for another party."

-I hope it's not a game and you're lying to me.

"Your family will die, won't you do anything?"

-That? , family feeling , according to what you told me , you come from a family of assassins , you would not kill your own family members by proxy , so , for those words to come from you , it is a surprise.

-I am not rooted to that silly feeling, you know yourself, I have money, so if they die... how would it affect me, I would go on with my life.

"Dear, don't lie to yourself, just accept and that's it, everything will be fine."

-Yakusha-san, your target is me, so I know you won't kill me, so, you see that you would change something by killing my family....., everything would stay the same.

10 seconds.

Yakusha looked seriously at Shouko.

He moved Yakusha closer to her.

-How about we sit down and watch the show, take the cookies, they are good to accompany and see all this.

-I'm curious about all the show you've put together.

5.....4....3....2.......1.......

"Stop the operation... the mission is canceled...".

Yakusha spoke through an intercom and stopped the murder of Shouko's family, on the screen you could see all the people walking away and the television was automatically saved.

Shouko had a cookie in her mouth as she ate them nonchalantly.

He did not say anything or anything, at no time did he give an indication of showing that he wanted to save his family.

Yakusha looked seriously at Shouko, he had lost... Shouko was right, it wouldn't affect the deal, nothing if they killed his family or not, as it seems.

Shouko himself, if he was going to accept, but when he realized that if he didn't they threatened to kill his family, well things changed...

He doesn't like to be threatened and manipulated, he likes to be the hunter instead of the hunted.

"I see how things are...."

"Since the gentleman did not want to accept my offer today, I tried to convince him another time, so until then, you can go...".

The limo stopped and stopped in front of Shouko's house, which was very strange due to the difference in street space with the limo.

But I still made it to her door.

Shouko got out of the limo without saying goodbye.

-See you soon Yakusha-san.

"See you soon...Shouko Komi."

The bass and the limo went....
