Chapter 41 - Prelude

While Yuuki was in the hidden village, at the 7th Unit dorm, Himari Azuma wraps Shushu Suruga's arm with some Mato bandages that quickly heal her.

"How are they The Mato Bandage we just received I Mean"(Himari)

Shushu:Yep I Can Move this is great first Aid But do you think Yuuki, Alright.

"The Shuuki went out of their way to make a trap but they turned tail as soon as they caught him they must have a strong reason for that so I'm sure he's alive. I mean it's Yuuki, we're talking about if anything he most likely let himself get captured."(Himari)

Himari knows him quite well and the details of his true power remains a mystery. Yuuki mentioned that he has a limit and weakness, mainly his consistency of holding back.

"Indeed get ready to leave" (Kyouka)

"Did you figure out where Yuuki is?"(Shushu)

Kyouka:My Body started to move on its own In other words

*His Transformation came undone! I knew that he planned this."(Himari)

"Oh yeah, ability Compensation!"(Shushu)

"My Body that moves to give him his reward is a radar that searches for Yuuki. Nei, will watch the battle from here and report every detail."(Kyouka)

"Leave it to me I've already contacted everyone from the anti-Demon Corps!"(Nei)

"We heard your call, we just arrived just in the nick of time."(Sahara)

Out of nowhere, the 6th Unit appears via Tenka Ame-No-Mitori who is visibly not happy.

"We'll be fighting together, I'm counting on you."(Kyouka)

*The Sixth unit has your back!" (Yachiho)

Back at the hidden village, Yuuki was thinking deeply about the humanoid Shuuki before him.

"...I see, you all became humanoid shuuki but are all Shuuki former humans?"

Yuuki does know the answer and it is not since he did dissect some of them determining that they're biological is vastly different from humans that were malleable. He did try to eat them to gain their property only to find it didn't change his cells and only gave him a boost.

"Nope there monster's from head to toe"(Aoba)

*We're Special."(Naon)

"Were More Like Half-Human Half-Monster."(Koko)

"We all became like this but are souls are still Human"(Aoba)

She said with a sentimental tone.

"Well we did get a bit more ferocious"(Koko)

She gleefully said while Yuuki crossed his arms.

"Is that so, well I could care less what you are."

"Awww, one trillion points!"

Aoba hugged Yuuki as she received a head pat from Yuuki as she said.

"So, have you found another candidate in your harem? I want to test them? Did someone take your virginity!? If that person isn't strong then"(Aoba)

"You worrywart, the answer is yes and she's quite strong. Also, it's around three or maybe four." (Yuuki)

"Umu, as expected of my Yuuki-kun! How about you girls!? You won't find a good man like my brother!"

"Nee-san…."

He looked at them slightly blushing while Yuuki gave an apologetic smile. Yuuki doesn't plan on taking everyone that looks pretty unless they are willing to join.

"Stop it, Nee-san. We don't know each other yet but I do appreciate your help."(Yuuki)

"Hmm, as your first wife and elder sister it's my job to judge worthy women to be by your side! I know you can protect yourself but who would protect you from yourself!?"(Aoba)

"I know…anyway, I have a gut feeling you three have bad blood with the Onmyou Agency."

This enrages Aoba, Koko, and Naon as they declare that the Anti-Demon Corps is their enemy because of how they operate and for treating Yuuki like a slave. Naon also says they are planning to attack a research institute and that the Anti-Demon Corps will definitely interfere.

==============

In order to consume a Peach, women must submit a request to the government. Once approved after a strict inspection, they eat the peach under direct supervision. Conversely, some women do not desire a Peach as they like themselves as they are or they find the Peaches suspicious.

'.....Well, let's try to change the subject.'

Yuuki saw their expression and already gave him all the answers he needed.

".....Nee-chan How did you know I was in Mato?"

He asked as the intense atmosphere suddenly vanished and Aoba smiled.

"Heh I felt my brother's presence."(Aoba)

"You Can Feel that?"(Yuuki)

He pondered the few times he's been in Mato training but he was in his Shuuki form most of those time to disguise himself and master his newfound power.

"Of course I'm your sister after all."(Aoba)

"And guess being the most handsome man in the world does sound like you." (Yuuki)

"Well I Avoided saying this since I don't want to spoil you too much"(Aoba)

She then made Yuuki pose before saying.

"But you're matured enough so I'm just gonna say it! Yuuki Is a hunk worth a quadrillion points. You two Think So Too Don't You."(Aoba)

"Hey."(Yuuki)

Yuuki went with the flow and gave flirtatious smiles making them blush that made Aoba laugh seeing their reaction.

"Attaboy."(Aoba)

Abruptly, Yuuki 's stomach growled. It sounded like a monster which scared Koko And Naon.

"I'll Get Something For you To Eat."(Aoba)

She left to get some food and made Yuuki chuckle hearing her humming, turning his attention to the other two.

"So How's is dealing with My Nee-San going out? Was it hard for you? She's a person who does what she wants and the way she wants."(Yuuki)

"she's way past just "a bit""(Koko)

"She's the definition of a bossy brat."(Naon)

"But Aoba-Nee is a leader we can count on."(Koko)

"Everyone in here likes aoba even her defects"(Naon)

"That's Great."(Yuuki)

As Koko eats a mushroom that was rather large.

"Hey, that smells good."(Yuuki)

Koko explains that it is a mushroom they grow in the village that provides an energy boost. Yuuki knew exactly what it was and could already feel his senses being affected.

"Hmmm, these mushrooms seem to be affecting my senses, making me hallucinate…but I wonder."

Yuuki stared at it then took a bite where he instantly got resistance from it and pheromones to affect people. His body is able to replicate its effect and analyze it. The taste was rather more flavorful than mushroom and I decided to harvest a few then remove some of its hallucinating effect.

"Hmmm, so, does my sister mention anything else about me?"(Yuuki)

"She often mentioned that you were strong, really strong and once beat up an entire gang all by yourself at the age of 8."(Koko)

"We thought that everything would be an exaggeration because of the way he is."(Naon)

"I see, well it's true, I'm stronger than the average person and I am quite a blood lusted boy but Nee-san helps me."(Yuuki)

"Indeed, she is a capable person. Though, I'm curious if it's true you intended to have harem and be with your own sister?"(Koko)

Yuuki nodded knowing that it does sound strange to them.

"Well, morale is to be damned. It's not like I can find a cure for inbreeding, heck I might be able to return you back to being human."

"Whaaat!? Really!?"

Both of them exclaimed while Yuuki nodded as he continued to eat the mushroom.

"Yeah, though, it will take time and your cooperation but I can try. However, it will take time."

They regain hope because of Yuuki and soon Aoba arrives with some food and gives it to Yuuki, who was mostly Onigiri.

"Get your fill, Yuuki-kun because it's time to introduce you to them."

Yuuki was munching on the Onigiri when Aoba summoned the three Shuuki they had been using earlier. Koko sat on the bear like shuuki while Naon rode the lanky multiples arm shuuki.

"They posses great strength even among the Shuuki's, I call this guy Kidoumaru he's call the one Horned by the Anti Demon Corps I think?"(Aoba)

"This Is Kumadouji."(Koko)

"This is Akura."(Naon)

"So they obey you."(Yuuki)

Yuuki said munching on his food and finish it. He frankly view them as wild animals than monster since they don't know what they are doing but then again wild animal has their own integrity.

"We have to let them of our strength first though."(Aoba)

"Looks like they obey us because half of us aren't human."(Koko)

"There is a limit to how many you can command them but they are useful."(Koko)

Yuuki wondered if he could tame Shuuki but he has summons therefore he doesn't need them.

"We'll go on a rampage soon, Kuma! Let's kick the butts of those who stand in our way."(Koko)

Yuuki find their plan to be incredibly stupid and naive especially there lack of Intel and decided to gain their trustsince he knows their reason but wanted them to tell him and act as if he doesn't know.

"In what you said the last time you were asked if you're the leader right, what did you mean by that?"

"I'm The Leader of the Former Humans,But I'm not the leader of "Monster's From Birth Shuuki"... Though I have no idea if something like that exists."(Aoba)

*So that's why you said she didn't know about Mato?"(Yuuki)

"Indeed it's about the reason we became like this "(Aoba)

"Tell me more about that."(Yuki)

Naon Yuno explains to Yuuki how she, Aoba Wakura, and Koko Zenibako turned into Humanoid Shuuki.

Three years ago, Naon was a regular human working as a model in the human world. She had not yet eaten a Peach as she was holding out for the possibility that it would restore her youth when she got older.

One day, Naon was caught up in a Mato disaster and transported to Mato. The Anti-Demon Corps were unable to reach her in time as she was chased by a herd of Shuuki and she encountered a Peach tree.

Desperate, she ate one of the Peaches, hoping that it would grant her an ability to fend off the Shuuki.

However, after she ate it, the Peach's power went wild and she lost consciousness. Some time later, Naon awoke and found herself naked and in the presence of three priestesses.

They explained that Naon was taken to a specialized hospital, but the priestesses had an "omen" and so they took her to her present location. They further explained that they were from the Onmyou Agency, which is dedicated to studying Shuuki.

Naon protested, declaring that she was a human, but she was repelled by a magical force field. As indicated by the head priestess, Naon found that her body had been partially transformed, becoming more Shuuki-like.

The head priestess explained that, in rare occurrences, some women who eat Peaches are transformed as such, and it only happens to those who eat Peaches in Mato, though they are not sure why.

Although Naon begged for a cure, the head priestess explained that they did not have one yet and asked that she cooperate as their research subject.

[ A/N: Just read the manga, I'll be changing few things but long exposition, I'll just try to skip it. ]

"To be expected of them…"(Yuuki)

He muttered under his breath while Naon continued.

"They did provide us the essentials under surveillance that is but they paid no heed to our voices when It comes to the important things, They examined my whole body and treated me like a lab rat. But a Blessing Among those curses….."(Naon)

Naon moved and phase through Koko's body be home intangible.

"The ability to hide within things woke up inside me,I escaped and brought others who are in the same situation the moment I had the chance."(Naon)

"There others who Managed to escape through other means but the overall story is the same. The poor things received so many injuries from being experimented on I was so pissed when I saw her scars."(Koko)

"Did the same happen to Nee-chan?"(Aoba)

Aoba:Up to the point where I ate the peach and it rampage yes,But In My cad The Rampage was horrible I found this place and spent years fighting to keep my human Mind,I Only meet them once it finally calmed down

"You had it bad huh?"(Yuuki)

"Now you see I had to be careful rescuing you Mato's Darkness runs deep"(Aoba)

"Hmm, guess you tried to expose them?"(Yuuki)

"We tried but they crushed our attempts with their abilities."(Naon)

She sighed in defeat having tried to expose their corruption but were ignored.

"The Onmyou Agency is an organization that Claim's Mato Existence as Profit for our country."(Aoba)

*They have alot of influence so they don't hd back using their weight, So We all use our weight too! There might be other's in the same situation we were but more importantly they piss me off! We'll break into Onmyou Agency and turn it into rubble."

"We have enough power with the Shuuki with tamed."(Aoba)

They declared ready for war against a large organization that span the entire Japan while Yuuki shook his head at this.

"Goodness gracious….Nee-san, I can list down a number but one of them is that the power you have is a Cannon fodder compare to the entire force of the Onmyou Agency."

Yuuki facepalm at how stupid their plans was and looked straight in their eyes and said.

"Do you have any idea the overall prowess of what you're up against?"(Yuuki)

They look at him blankly not believing that the power they have is not enough.

"Hey, we know our power is enough to take them down now!"(Koko)

".....guess there's no way of convincing you."(Yuuki)

He gave up since they were stubborn and decided to let them experience what the forces of Anti-demon corp is like since they've been fighting weak fighters at the moment. It was then Both Yuuki and Naon Sense something nearby

"Just as we are in the middle of our explanation speak of the devils,Koko Tell everyone to act just as we planned."(Aoba)

"Right!"(Koko)

"This is the prelude."(Aoba)

Outside the Hidden Village, the 7th and 6th Units follow Kyouka Uzen as her Slave ability leads them to Yuuki.

"We're really close to the border I wonder where Yuuki Is~"(Sahara)

"Yuu-chan, Where are yooou!?"(Shushu)

"It looks like…"(Kyouka)

She indicates that her power is leading them to a pile of rocks.

"My Legs are heading towards those rocks."(Kyouka)

"A Cave is it"(Yachiho)

"So they are hiding the entrance!"(Himari)

"You were a great help tenka we arrive fairly quickly."(Kyouka)

"I've learned something new today."(Tenka)

Tenka then began to crack her knuckles

"So this is how it feels to have your lover taken away."(Tenka)

Both Shushu and Himari agreed since they also felt quite fustrated.
