Shirou's clones number 30 million

If you want to find a certain type of dangerous species, you can activate your Observation Haki and find a whole bunch of them in an instant.

In the mountains and forests outside the capital.

Tazumi stood on a tree branch, using the leaves to conceal his figure.

Since encountering the dangerous species and becoming separated from Sayo and Ieyasu, he has been living a solitary adventure.

"Are they both alright? Sayo is smart, she'll definitely be fine."

On the contrary, what direction is the capital city again? Could I be lost?

While I was deep in thought, several loud noises suddenly came from afar.

Boom...!

The deafening sound almost made him fall off the tree.

Tatsumi hesitated for a few seconds, then quickly walked toward the direction from which the sound came.

He walked through the woods and parted the weeds on the ground, then froze on the spot.

In the distance, a handsome young man with blue hair, or rather a young adult, was fighting against several dangerous creatures.

No, to be precise, it's bullying dangerous species, just like adults bullying children.

boom!

His seemingly effortless punch instantly turned a dangerous creature, tens of meters tall and covered in scales, into a bloody mist.

Blood splattered on the leaves above Tatsumi's head, dripping down one drop at a time.

Such a scene is truly terrifying.

Tatsumi instinctively covered his mouth with his hand to prevent himself from screaming.

This guy looks too ruthless. If he's discovered, I'll die! I'll definitely die!

far away.

Shirou noticed that someone was watching the battle, but he didn't pay any attention to it.

Based on his Observation Haki, the onlookers weren't very strong; they were probably villagers who had come to the mountain to hunt animals or gather herbs.

"Did I use too much force again? I deliberately used my fist to keep the corpse as intact as possible, but I guess I should have used a sword."

Shirou clenched his fist, and with a thought, an ice sword instantly appeared in his palm.

"Roar!!"

A flash of sword light streaked past, and the dangerous creature that had been roaring and charging forward froze, its head and body separating as it fell to the ground.

Dangerous species are very resilient; what is fatal to ordinary animals is only a minor injury to most dangerous species.

Therefore, the simplest way to kill dangerous species is by beheading.

To preserve the complete corpse of a dangerous species, ice can be used, but if the temperature is too high, it will be difficult to kill the dangerous species, and if the temperature is too low, it will destroy the material. It is difficult to strike the right balance.

"I didn't expect this to be such a technical job. I shouldn't have agreed to it so quickly last night."

"Speaking of which, the fighting style of these dangerous species is very easy to understand. They only use the same routines over and over again, without any novelty. It's not nearly as interesting as fighting humans."

Looking at all this, Tatsumi felt an indescribable sense of oppression all around him, his heart was filled with fear, and his body trembled involuntarily.

Wow, that's incredible! Can humans really be this strong?

If I were to become his enemy, I would probably be killed the moment I met him.

Shirou stored the Hazard Species' corpses into his White Mist Space, jumped onto a treetop, and ran towards another Hazard Species gathering place discovered by his Observation Haki.

They were constantly running back and forth until sunset.

"I am back!"

Hearing Shirou's familiar voice, Chelsea, who was chatting with Leone, immediately transformed into a kitten and muttered softly:

Why did he shout? Was he trying to warn me?

"Of course. So, when are you planning to confess?" Leone asked with a light laugh.

Why would I do such a thing?

Chelsea had barely finished speaking when she heard approaching footsteps and immediately shut her mouth.

Chapter 128 Will You Spend the Rest of Your Life With Me?

Chapter 128, Section 129: Will You Spend the Rest of Your Life With Me?

"You're back."

As soon as Leone approached, she smelled a strong stench of blood and involuntarily took a step back.

"What have you been doing? Did you slaughter an entire army?"

"Huh...? Does it smell strong? I'll take a shower after I finish cooking."

Leone paused for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening.

"You're cooking yourself? How's your cooking? Don't make some culinary disaster."

"My cooking skills... are not bad, right? Today I'll show you what I'm made of."

Shirou chuckled, took out a huge Dangerous Species from the white mist space, held it up in his hand, and strode towards the kitchen.

Watching him leave, Leone's gaze shifted to the kitten Chelsea:

Can he cook? How good is he at it?

"I don't know, I've never seen it before."

As she spoke, Chelsea simultaneously reverted to human form.

"It's much more comfortable this way. Staying in cat form all the time is so tiring."

"It's been so long, haven't you gotten used to it yet?"

"I'll never get used to it, I'm not a real kitten."

"By the way, Chelsea, he went to cook himself."

"Ah."

“If this continues, you’ll just be watching us eat later. Besides, if we don’t bring this up soon, it will only become more and more difficult to say anything.”

"Well……"

Seeing this, Leone smiled and shook his head, not continuing to try to persuade him.

More than an hour later, at the family dining room.

At this moment, there are more than ten dishes neatly arranged on the table. Apart from two plates of vegetables, the rest are meat dishes made with special dangerous species.

In the most prominent spot in the middle of the long table, there is an oval plate about one meter in diameter, filled with roasted meat, emitting a rich aroma.

Shirou, who had already changed his clothes, looked back and forth between Leone and Chelsea, who was dressed as a kitten, and asked with a smile:

"How was my cooking? Not bad, right?"

"Hmm...that's nice. But is it just the two of us?" Leone hesitated.

"No, there's one more person."

Shirou picked up the kitten, placed it on the chair next to him, and slowly began to speak:

“Akame and the others are having their meal with the servants in another place. It’s just the three of us here. So, let’s eat.”

Leone looked at him and the kitten Chelsea, puzzled, and thought to herself:

Could it be that the two of them have already confessed their feelings to each other somewhere I don't know? But that's impossible.

While Adris was cooking, Chelsea was with me the whole time; the two of them didn't get any time alone together.

Thinking of this, Leone tentatively asked:

"Isn't it just the two of us and a kitten here? Could it be that there's actually someone else here who can't be seen or touched?"

"Those that can't be seen or touched aren't people at all, are they?"

Shirou couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark, then turned to Chelsea the cat and laughed:

"Aren't you going to eat? You used to sneak out to the kitchen at night, but today you can sit down and eat with us openly."

Huh...? Are you talking about me?

Chelsea was startled and stared at him blankly. She quickly realized that she could no longer pretend.

The next moment, she nimbly jumped onto Shirou's shoulder and asked softly:

When did you realize I wasn't a real kitten?

"Would you believe me if I said it was just a second ago?"

"Yes, I believe you."

"Actually, I knew from the beginning that you weren't a kitten."

"I see..."

Thinking of her past self who thought she was safe, and of how she used to sneak out to the kitchen every night, or transform back into human form and sleep on his shoulder, Chelsea felt her cheeks burning.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she gradually transformed back into human form, pressing her body against Shirou's back, her arms hanging down in front of his chest, her chin resting gently on his shoulder, and said in a very low voice:

"So... when I sneak out of bed every night, do you see me?"

"Ah."

"When I secretly...secretly...kissed you, were you awake too?"

"Ah."

"Did you hear all the whispers I said in your ear?"

"Ah."

Upon hearing his admission again, Chelsea felt her brain burning intensely and briefly felt dizzy.

At that moment, she dared not look at Leone's face beside her.
