chapter 28

As izanagis words fell the atmosphere in the Dinning area of the inn was a bit awkward even her father and mother who were in the started looking at mizu weirdly with a hint of fear in theyre eyes meanwhile mizu herself was more helpless then scared she knew from her past interactions with izanagi he didn't mean harm to her rather naive thinking but never the less that's what she thought now looking at the look of others including her parents she could tell they want nothing to do with her afterall ninjas are practically monstrous super humans to regular people no one wants to associate or be close to one it could spell disaster for them mizu who deeply understood this got really scared she's just a common person with no knowledge of the outside world she knew her parents would abandon her but she didn't know anything of the outside world if she really gets kicked out she could get sold to a brothel or worse fates as she thinks of this a determined look appeared in mizus eyes as she ignored all the look of fear

"Your very insensitive you know doing that is akin to not giving her a choice at all" said tomoe as they walked up the stairs she sounded very relaxed and content with her meal not worried one bit while izanagi just said "honestly it could go both ways I don't want anyone to touch her when I leave if I don't take her with me while it nots entirely guaranteed it's the best thing I could do who's to say some powerful noble that's escaping would not take a fancy to her and force her, her parents would abandon her the first sign of trouble after all kids are just tools in these days and I would like to take her if possible" said izanagi as they reached theyre room "anyway let's get ready we only have a few hours till we leave and we will probably be going with dead weight" said izanagi as he opened the door walking in followed by tomoe he wanted to instantly put on his armor and kit up but was stopped instantly by tomoe "we still got a few hours don't hurry let me study your seals" said tomoe with expectation in her voice it seemed like she really wanted to study his seals so he complied moved a chair and table over the table took off his shirt and got to counting shurikens and taking inventory of supplies not long after his shirt was taken off he could feel a warm hand touching his back from top to bottom tracing his seals and fuinjutsu with her fingers this went on for minutes as if she was fascinated soon 10 minutes passed and just on time a knock came to the door "come in mizu" said izanagi he knew it was mizu mainly because he could sense her chakra she was the only one with such large chakra here as soon as he said that the door opened but rather slowly as mizu walked in

Mizu pov: as I walked up the stairs my steps felt unusually heavy especially standing in front of the room my breath sped up rapidly but she was fueled by determination she knew even if the ninja didn't do anything to her she would be kicked out and treated like an outsider there's no way out for her but to make the ninja happy, just knocking on the door felt like her bones on her arms were rattling hearing the man who called her head telling her to 'come in' she steeled herself as she slowly opened the door to collect her bearings as she fully opened the door what greeted her eyes a malicious grin or lustful eyes but a shirtless izanagi his muscles looked strong as rocks while his seals gave him a mysterious vibe the concentration he had while sorting out supplies infront of him made her feel like he was more handsome and Tomoe who sat over him on the bed while touching his back with a serious and fascinated face gave mizu the feeling of a beautiful couple not the mention izanagi Tomoe was highly attractive even to a girl like her she stood at 5'8 with an incredibly well proportioned body if she had a word to describe it would be Thick not to mention her vibrant red hair and beautiful face the best way mizu could describe the seen in front of her was with the word beautiful with all these thoughts running through her head mizu soon got a blush on her cheeks as she lowered her head and held the side of her skirt tightly as she closed the door behind her
