Chapter 73: Peace (1)

Chapter 73: Peace (1)

—

Neji was back in the car after Gara pulled him out.

Gara had come to the school directly from work, he could tell from her car. Her assistant, Kujou Sara, had brought her here with her car after Nejire had notified her.

Kimi had come with another car to pick the siblings up, and currently, they were inside that car with Gara sending Sara away. Neji sat on the back seat with Nejire on his right and Gara on his left, who had her arms around his head as she talked to her phone about an emergency.

Staring at her with a curious gaze, Neji waited for her to finish talking. Nejire stayed silent too after Neji told her to, and Kimi simply peeked at him every now and then from the rearview mirror. She was worried, but she couldn't express it outright in front of Gara. It was… hard for her sometimes.

Gara cut the call and immediately, Neji asked, "Mom, what's your relationship with the Principal?"

"Hm?" She turned to him, her hand on his head as she patted his hair. The hair made of actual silver felt weird in her touch, it was very light silver, each strand barely weighing more than actual hair strands, but if she isn't careful her palm might start bleeding, though that won't stop her from patting her son.

Neji continued. "I know you are influential and all, but I don't think it's enough to shut the Principal of UA's mouth like that."

She smiled and giggled. "Oh my, you underestimate me, son. I do have enough influence of my own to do that, kind of. But you're right, my influence isn't the reason behind it."

"Then?"

"You want to know?"

"Yes."

At Neji's nod, she stuck her tongue out playfully, something she won't do outside her family. "It's a secret."

"..."

Neji asked her again, but she just laughed it off. Though he had some ideas, he wasn't sure about any of them. It's kind of an open secret that Nezu was experimented on by humans once. Maybe his mother was involved in that? As in, maybe she saved him. Though it was most likely just one of his drifting thoughts… but eh, he would figure it out someday.

"So, Neji!" Then Nejire called, her hands sliding into his right arm, acting as if Gara wasn't even there. "What did they do to you?"

"Just some question, it's nothing bad." Neji shook his head. "Instead, I got information that will help me tremendously."

"Oh?" Her eyes sparkled up, this caught her curiosity. "And that is?"

Neji curled his lips up. "It's a secret."

Behind him, Gara gave a hearty laugh. It was delighting seeing him copy her, but that didn't mean she wouldn't make him spill the beans.

While Nejire pouted and glared, Gara tried to ask herself, but he didn't bend and instead gave a half-hearted answer. She knew he was lying, but she couldn't make him tell the truth without him forcing her secrets out. Maybe she should force the mouse to spill the beans, instead?… But then again, she didn't like to push the mouse without any actual reason behind it. Her son was that reason today.

Finally, the car reached the mansion's large gate as they waited for the gate to open by the security guard. Then Kimi drove to the parking lot and Gara and Nejire walked out.

"Huh, aren't you coming?"

Neji smiled at his mother's question. "I have something in the car, I will go with Kimi."

Nejire narrowed her eyes at this but said nothing. She wanted to have a hearty talk with Neji about how he should always let the teachers and others help him in a fight, that's if he even jumps in, so that he never faces such a situation again.

But Nejire had noticed how Kimi was holding back from showing her worry, and with Gara back early today, Kimi won't get the chance to vent her worry inside the mansion.

"Oh, okay then, Nejire~ let's go."

Gara ruffled Nejire's hair which the girl didn't like at all and then walked away, and as they went, Neji locked the door and hugged Kimi's neck from behind.

"Hi."

"Are you okay?"

Ignoring his greeting, Kimi asked worriedly with her head turned backwards immediately, her lips thin.

"I heard you were all bloody before…"

Neji slipped in the front seat and sat on the seat beside Kimi before guiding her to sit on his lap, her hands locking on his neck.

Kimi didn't know about the dangers inside the dungeon since every time he came back to the hotels in their journey, he was completely fine because of the health potions and extra sets of clothes inside his inventory. So this was the 2nd time she heard him fight, and 1st time where he was bloody injured.

"I had some magical items that helped me heal, I am fine now."

"Yeah, but…"

Kimi trailed off while Neji's mouth caught her lips. She didn't resist and let his tongue invade her mouth, slowly coiling around her own like a snake. One of his hands lowered and pulled her waist towards him while another grabbed her large breasts. She moaned softly and shuddered in pleasure, enjoying his ethereal touch with heavy breathing.

Finally, he let her go and a string of savila connected their mouths. Neji sucked in the string and again kissed her, this time pushing her on the glass window and touching her under her maid dress.

"S...stop!"

Kimi finally squealed when she got the chance to open her mouth once, and Neji chuckled. He knew she liked it when he did things against her words. After teasing her for a while, he did stop.

Kimi breathed heavily.

"If you go any further then I…"

Neji grinned at her. He didn't mind doing it right now, it would help his stiff body relax. But the matter of fact was that his mother was home, and knowing her, if he spent too much time on the car, she would come to check. So he couldn't help but stop.

"Are your worries gone? I was just proving I am all fine now."

Kimi nodded, her usually pale face red from her neck to ears.

"I am sure you are…"

While Neji laughed she slowly placed her head on his chest, trying to hide her face.

After a long silence, she said, "It's... hard, sometimes, needing to hold back my worries."

Neji shrugged at this. "I mean you don't have to. It's normal for you to get attached to me after spending 2 years out. I would say acting normal is abnormal in this scenario, instead. I am sure my parents would only see it as you caring for me as a sister, or aunt, I guess. You oldey."

Kimi raised her face to meet his eyes, ignoring his joke, she thinned her lips. "But what if Mistress Gara gets suspicious…"

Neji only grinned. "In that case, she would instead be eager to see her grandchildren."

"..."

Kimi didn't want to ruin the moment, but a trail of cheerful laughter left her at that moment.

"Meow…"

Kurai could feel Neji's life force all the time. So at first, when she sensed him getting beaten up, she wanted to jump in his general direction right then, but his life force was barely damaged, and soon it healed too, probably because of a Health Potion. If not for the fact that she suddenly felt his power jump up magnificently, she would have rushed in even then.

Because of that, she was displeased to see Nejire and Gara walking inside the mansion alone. She could sense Neji's presence right around the corner, but he wasn't coming. She was worried, and that old man was probably doing some idiotic things like always.

She was about to rush in, but her aunt, Nejire, caught her midair and started playing with her. Oh, she loved Nejire alright, but she can be very annoying sometimes, this was one of such times.

Luckily, before she decided to blast the mansion with <Hell Fire>, an attack that she made by mixing her Sun God powers and Death God powers, both her parents walked in.

Kimi wore her usual maid outfit, but a strangely happy smile was on her face. Kurai couldn't fathom why her mother would work as a maid, but eh, her mother was still a human and humans were weird. Though it was pleasing to see her bright smile. Then came her father, he yawned and stretched his limbs, looking all tired, but she knew better.

Freeing herself from Nejire, she jumped at Neji who's eyes jumped open as she approached his face. He didn't try to defend, and that annoyed her, she wanted to jumpscare him.

She landed on his left shoulder softly, as light as feather, and licked his cheeks while purring.

"Are you hurt... Otou-san?" She asked, calling him Otou-san instead of 'Pops', as her mother had taught her today morning. She didn't want to call him that, but Kimi had ordered her seriously to be a good girl after she had almost burned the whole garden yesterday using her fire.

This was her punishment for this week.

At her words, her Otou-san stared at her face silently before rubbing his nose with her, suddenly causing her to flinch. She actually liked his touches, it had some kind of calming effect, but not this, it was too sudden.

She tried to jump while purring, but Neji's hands grabbed her mid-air and rubbed her cheek with his.

"Good girl, you're finally becoming a good girl."

She almost went unconscious because of the heat on her cheeks that she forced herself to believe came from the rubbing of two cheeks.
