Slow life | Ryuu 4

"Worry not Ryuu my techniques are not that easy to replicate even if someone were to see it being used, I dare to say they cannot understand it, unless…"

"Unless…?" – Ryuu waited.

"Unless, they're have the same level of talent, genius and understanding of biology as mine." – I said puffing out my chest proudly and with a grin.

"And if that time comes they do deserve to learn the technique."

...

I myself just copied the technique from the enemy I fought and modified it to my own standards.

So if someone of the same talent as mine appeared then they deserve it.

I don't really care to begin with as Silent Flash Step is one of my lowest grade technique in my arsenal even though it have one of the highest potential.

...

"Ok…"

Ryuu nodded her eyes burning with passion (not a perverted passion) but a question was left unanswered in her head.

'What is biology?' – She never once heard of the term.

'Ryuu is really a person of few words, if it weren't for my ability to see through her, I might mistake her way of interacting to me as a show that she did not like my accompaniment.' – I thought letting out a silent sigh.

"Ryuu, can you first let me see the full power of a level 4…"

I politely asked.

"I'm sorry Kai…"

I raise my finger to stop her from continuing.

"You worried about the area getting devastated right…"

I said to her.

She nod.

"You don't have to worry."

Saying so I step my left foot forward, then a massive magic array containing intricate symbols and runes quickly spread on the ground encompassing the entire open space.

"Kai-san… this is…"

Dumbfounded once again Ryuu couldn't form her words.

'The more I knew about him the more mysterious he is.' – Ryuu thought.

"This is the ISOLATION REALITY MIRROR ARRAY ZONE, it separates us from our reality allowing me to create a parallel mirror copy of our reality and manifest it in this small isolated field we are now in."

'Damn, that cost me big, 90% of my reserves were gone just like that, thankfully my resource recovery speed is astronomical a minute or three and I'm back to my peak.' – Kai grumbles.

"Isolate…W-what?" – Ryuu didn't get it Kai talk too fast for her to understand every word he says.

Her expression is a bit comedic.

Her ears were raised, the same goes for her eyebrows that were also raised, added to her sync pout and frown, and not to forget her cute nose twitching.

Seeing this expression of her's I couldn't help but chuckled.

Noticing my reaction she quickly…

"What's with your look?"

I shrugged the back of my head as I replied.

"Oh, I just thought you looked cuter and more beautiful the more expressions you let out."

"Please stop with the teasing." – She said returning to her stoic face trying to hide her embarrassed blush.

/Cough/ /Cough/

I fake a cough to clear the awkward atmosphere I've created.

"Back to the subject…"

"What happens inside this space stays in this space and cannot be reflected on the outside." – I said to Ryuu.

"But the same cannot be said to our own bodies." – I follow up.

"The pub wouldn't be damage?" – She asked.

I nodded.

"You sure!"

I nodded again.

She let out a sigh and looked me into my eyes trying to make sure I am not lying or trying to trick her.

It seems that it's not just me who's afraid of mama Mia and now that I have a vague understanding of the power adventurers held a reminder come to mind.

I should never provoke mama Mia or make her angry.

…

"Kai and Ryuu, nya…"

Just as I was about to ask Ryuu again to demonstrate her level 4 power I noticed Chloe emerging from the shadows.

"Hey, what is this place, nya…"

Chloe asked, she looked around, trembling… scared.

'Don't tell me, is she around us all this time watching from the shadows. I couldn't sense her at all, that's scary.' – I thought.

"How long have you been here with us? Chloe…" – I ask trying to confirm things.

"Just five seconds before the space suddenly changed…" – She quickly replied.

"And where were you all this time?" – I asked again.

"There at the corner most part of this space, I noticed you two enter the training area so I decided to sneak up to you when the entire area suddenly changed." – She explained.

'No wonder I couldn't sense her at all.' – I thought.

"So Kai, nya. Answer me what had happened here?"

I shook my head and began explaining to Chloe what is this space supposed to entail and when I'm done explaining she had this super dumbstruck expression on her adorable face.

"You're really amazing, nya." – She said grabbing my left hand stroking her head to my shoulder.

Ryuu snapping out from her stupor look at Chloe in shocked.

"C-Chloe, what do you think you're doing?" – Ryuu screamed.

"I'm being myself, nya." – Chloe replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"…" – Ryuu was speechless.

She then made her own move.

She grabbed my right arm giving Chloe a sharp glare.

"E-Eh, Ryuu your so bold…" – Chloe commented with a grin.

"…" – Ryuu was speechless for the second time.

Ryuu was about to let go of me when I grabbed both the two of them in the shoulders.

"You two are a handful you know that, can't you be honest at least once in a while." – I said holding them tighter.

A blush quickly sprung on both of the girls faces.

Ryuu's ears twitching nonstop.

Chloe's tail swinging wildly.

"Unfortunately, girls this is nor time and space for us to be lovey dovey, this is a training space." – I said and as they heard my words the mood was instantly dampened.

The two of them gave me a glare for ruining the mood but I did not care.

I have this policy of mine.

Priority first before anything else.

"So, Ryuu, how about showing me the full power of a level 4, now?" – I asked.

"Kai you idiot…" – Ryuu said.

"Kai you mood wrecker…" – Chloe followed.

I scratch the back of my head knowing fully how they felt.

But no matter…

I must see with my own eyes the power of a level 4.

"IF you two are that eager to advance our current relationship I do not mind, but…" – I said a grin on my face.

Realizing what I am trying to convey the two girls blushed profusely.

"For now it's better to take things slowly, a hasty relationship is not good you know." – I said.

This time the two of them just nodded to my words, understanding where I am coming from.

"So, Ryuu, please satisfy my curiosity on how powerful a level 4 is."

"I won't be holding back, I will attack you with my full force." – Ryuu said, her expression serious.

"Are you ready?" – She asked me.

"Come at me."

/Swoosh/

Ryuu moved at a speed comparable to me using Silent Flash Step…

No, she's faster…

To cope up with her absurd speed I was forced to use Silent Flash Step repeatedly and even after doing so the only thing I could do is dodge her attacks, attacking isn't an option.

So this is the power of a level 4.

I can barely keep up.

She appeared behind me and coming from above she swung her Alf's Lumina to strike me down.

I lowered my head to delay the time of the incoming attack reaching me while also sending a counter attack in the form of a side kick targeting her legs to force her back.

And just as expected she stopped her attack to dodge my kick.

Stepping back a few steps Ryuu immediately searches for me.

But I've was long vacated my previous spot.

I vanished from her sight.

And before she could locate me I teleported beside her, using my right leg I directed a kick aiming for her stomach.

Having no time to dodge she crossed her arms trying to receive my attack.

But just as my kick was about to reach her I performed a 180 degree twist midair in a speed comparable to a level 4.

The back of my left leg appeared before her shock eye.

/Boom/

A direct hit on the face.
