My Demon Hunting System

Chapter 35: Training with an Ultimate Warrior

"Ummm..."

Ary reacted as he felt a soft sensation below his head.

He turned around, still closing his eyes, and placed his right palm under his head, pondering,

'How did the floor become so soft?'

He felt two cylindrical-shaped soft things.

Squeeze!

'What's this? It's so soft...'

Ary pondered while squeezing that soft thing.

"Hmm?"

Ary finally opened his eyes and found that he was lying over a pair of soft thighs.

"Huh?"

He reacted while enlarging his eyes as she saw thighs in front of his eyes.

He was left bewildered and didn't understand what was going on until his gaze shifted toward the top.

"Erica?"

He called out as he saw Erica, who was sleeping due to tiredness.

He got up and glanced at her.

A brittle smile formed on his face. He mumbled,

"What type of person did I become, Damnit! I made her worry a lot due to my actions back then."

He realised that she was quite worried about him.

Sigh!

He let out a sigh while lowering his head, mumbling,

"What's done is done. I'll definitely make that bastard pay for his sins. But..."

Then, he raised his head, and while looking at Sleeping Erica, he added,

"It would be bad if I made her worry."

"Ummm...."

Erica responded as she slowly opened her eyes.

"Hmm?"

Ary reacted as she saw her waking up.

"Huh? Ary?"

Erica called out after seeing Ary in front of her.

But before she could react any further, Ary embraced her tightly yet gently.

"Wh-What's wrong?"

She asked, thinking that maybe some problem had arisen.

However,

"Nothing."

Ary replied and added,

"I just feel like embracing you this morning so that my day will be good."

Erica smiled after hearing this and embraced him back, saying,

"You're free to embrace me whenever you want, Darling~"

"I'm glad, honey~"

Ary replied.

COUGH!

"....?!"

They both reacted as she released each other and shifted their eyes toward the mechanical door.

Kashi, Mike, Emily, and Mary were standing there with Selina and looking at them.

Kashi was closing his eyes due to awkwardness after glimpsing this.

While Emily, Mary, and Selina were smiling at Erica.

"Great job, bro."

While showing a thumbs up, Mike commented.

"J-Just how long have you guys been standing there?"

In an apprehensive voice, Ary asked.

"For around three minutes."

While opening his eyes, Kashi said, showing the first three fingers of his left hand while folding his arms.

".....?!"

Ary and Erica were left embarrassed after hearing this.

Cough!

Kashi coughed again and announced,

"Well, I thought that you wanted to train under my supervision, so I came here to ask you for training. If you're not so busy, then shall we go for the training?"

"Y-Yeah, sure."

Ary said, then he stood up and picked the book of Almita from the ground.

"Also, Ary."

Kashi called out.

"Hmm? What is it, senior?"

Ary asked as he halted.

Ary showed a confidential smile to Ary and stepped toward him, and while placing his right palm over Ary's shoulder, he advised,

"We're always with you. So no need to feel lonely."

"Hmm? Wait! Did you guys—"

Ary asked, but before he could ask completely, Kashi nodded, saying,

"We know."

Then, he lowered his gaze, adding,

"You've gone through so much pain..."

Then, he raised his head and said,

"But now, we're all together. We're always with you to support you and to kill that bastard for what he did. No need to feel that you're alone."

Ary was left in a daze after hearing this.

After a while, he smiled at them, saying,

"Thanks a lot."

His motivation to kill the demon king got a boost after getting their support.

"Well,"

Kashi let out as he turned around, saying,

"Let's go to the Arkinest Dyneema. It's the best place to train."

"Ah, okay."

Ary replied. He remembered that the place that Kashi mentioned was the realm of Ultimate Warriors.

Soon, they stepped outside of the Warriors' cottage, and by using a teleportation bar, they teleported to a realm exactly the same as the Astral Realm. But there was a difference.

There was a sun and a moon in the sky together. There was a ring around the sun, and the moon was circling the sun.

"...?!"

Ary and Erica were left amazed after seeing this.

"Ary..."

"Yeah, I saw this."

Ary replied, while gawking at the sun and moon.

Then, his eyes shifted to Mary, Emily, and Mike. He asked,

"By the way, I forgot to ask this before. Are you guys from Earth as well?"

"Hmm? Yeah."

Mike replied.

"I don't think so."

Kashi said as he turned toward them.

"Hmm? But our residential planet was Earth."

Emily added.

"Yeah, you all might be from Earth but from different timelines."

Kashi called.

"Hmm?"

Everyone except Ary was left dumbfounded.

"What exactly do you mean, Senior?"

Mary asked with a perplexed expression.

"I know this."

Ary called out and got the attention of everyone there.

While raising his left index finger, Ary called,

"According to what Senior is saying, we are all from Earth but from different timelines. It means we are from the same planet, but the time from where we arrived was different. As I said, I and Erica are from the year 2022. What about you guys?"

"2022?! You guys were from the past or something?"

Mike freaked out.

"Hmm?"

Ary reacted.

"So, from which year did you guys come from?"

Erica asked.

Mike, Emily, and Mary looked at each other, then at Ary and Erica, and replied,

"From the year 2067."

"Eh...?"

Erica was left in a daze.

While Ary had a thought strike his head.

He stepped forward toward Mike, asking,

"Tell me something then. Are you guys from Rinia city?"

"Ah, yeah."

Mike replied.

"Did you guys study at Satakino High School?"

Ary continued asking.

"Hmm? Well, yeah. How did you know this?"

Emily asked.

A smile formed on Ary's face. He asked again.

"Did you guys know about the international topper of your school?"

Sigh!

Erica sighed as she understood what he was asking.

While Kashi showed a fake smile at Ary, pondering,

'We are here from training not for some flattering business.'

"Hmm...well, I think I know about him. I don't know his name, though, but I heard that he is a good guy. But I never saw him. I only saw his children once."

Mike replied.

"Huh?"

Both Ary and Erica halted after hearing "children."

Erica stepped forward, asking,

"Did you tell me who that man's wife is?"

"Wife?"

Ary called out.

But while ignoring his call, Erica focused on Mike's reply.

After a while of thought, Mike opened his mouth and commented,

"Ah...well, I didn't see her either. Though I heard that she's so beautiful. Umm...long silver hair...crimson eyes...umm...snow-like fair skin...she's like a goddess if you ask me."

Erica was left startled after hearing this.

Her face turned slightly red as she understood what their future would be.

Cough!

Suddenly, Kashi coughed and said,

"That's the future of their timeline, not yours. Don't be so happy now."

"Ah, yes."

Erica replied, then she lowered her red face.

Then, Kashi spread his arms and said,

"Well, that's the training ground."

The area was big, yet there was one strange thing; there weren't any people.

"Hmmm?"

Emily reacted as she looked around, and after a while, she called out,

"Um... Senior."

"Hmm?"

Kashi reacted as he shifted his gaze to Erica.

"Where are the others? There is dead silence."

Emily asked while looking.

Ary knew that every ultimate warrior lived in seclusion; that's why he didn't ask.

"Because this realm is mine. No one is allowed to enter here."

Kashi replied as he stepped forward and took out his blade from his scabbard. Then, while turning around at them, he commented,

"Now, then. Let's begin our training."
