"It's done…"
Seeing the signal light that had been flashing for a month finally stop, Sora let out a long sigh of relief.
Although his life over the past month had been quite comfortable—spending every day rolling in bed with Karasubaba, Benitsubasa, and Haihane, playing games—Sora had still been under a lot of pressure.
Several times, issues had arisen, but fortunately, Sora had managed to correct them in time, though it had given him quite a scare.
Benitsubasa and Haihane also quietly sighed in relief. While the past month had been enjoyable, they had truly been worn out by Sora's antics.
Karasubaba, on the other hand, was more excited than ever, staring intently at Yume and Musubi. Her silver-gray eyes seemed to glow, not missing a single detail.
Finally, under the watchful eyes of the four, the two girls on the experimental bed slowly opened their eyes.
"Huh? Where is this?"
"Ah! Lord Sora, Yume missed you so much!"
Well, that was Yume. At first, she looked around in confusion, not quite understanding the situation. But when she saw Sora, she immediately became excited and jumped up, throwing herself into his arms.
"Great, Lady Yume has finally been resurrected!"
"Lord Sora, Lady Yume, Musubi missed you too!"
Not to be outdone, Musubi, whose tone and actions were almost identical to Yume's, also rushed over.
"Haha, yes, Yume, Musubi, I missed you too. Welcome back…"
Only when he truly held the two girls in his arms did Sora finally snap out of it, a heartfelt smile spreading across his face.
Because of Yume's influence, Musubi's personality and appearance were almost identical to hers. Sora tragically realized that if it weren't for the different names they used, he wouldn't be able to tell them apart!
"Hey, Karasubaba, long time no see! Have you been listening to Lord Sora? If not, I'll have to beat you up again!" Waving her little fist, Yume greeted Karasubaba with a cute smile.
"Hehe… You're finally back! This time, I'll definitely kill you!"
With a bloodthirsty grin, Karasubaba had entered a frenzied state the moment she saw Yume wake up. She was frantically searching for her katana, clearly eager to battle Yume.
Seeing Karasubaba, whom he had painstakingly trained for a month, revert to her old self the moment Yume returned, Sora broke into a cold sweat.
However, if this had been in the past, Sora would have been troubled. But now? Hehe, his number one super fighter was back. How could he not handle Karasubaba?
"Hehe, little crow, little crow, if you want to fight Yume, I'll let you fight to your heart's content later! But for now, your Ashikabi has some important business to attend to!"
Without further ado, Sora picked up Yume and Musubi and headed toward the bed.
He had waited so long, and now he could finally "devour" them!
Yume and Musubi, who were identical, had been a long-time desire of Sora's!
Yume and Musubi were both innocent. Although they didn't know what Sora was planning, they didn't resist at all.
Benitsubasa and Haihane, of course, knew what their lustful master was up to. Their cheeks flushed, and after a moment's hesitation, they followed.
Karasubaba, however, twitched at the corner of her mouth. Her high fighting spirit seemed to have been instantly extinguished, and she felt the urge to rush over and slash Sora with her katana.
But to her annoyance, her katana was missing!
She didn't know that Sora, fearing she might go on a rampage again, had hidden her katana earlier…
And so, under Karasubaba's stunned gaze, Yume and Musubi finally fell into Sora's clutches. Moans and gasps filled the room, and the secret chamber was filled with an endless spring…
Of course, Karasubaba didn't escape either. Before long, she was also dragged into the fray.
…
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
On Kamikura Island, two figures were constantly colliding. Fists flew, sword energy crisscrossed, and the surrounding ground was utterly destroyed, as if the world was ending.
"Lord Sora, Lady Yume and Lady Karasubaba are so amazing!"
Clenching her little fists, her big eyes sparkling with admiration, Musubi watched the two fighting figures with awe.
"Haha, Musubi, you're amazing too. With a little more effort, you'll be just like them soon!" Stroking Musubi's ahoge, Sora said.
Sora wasn't lying. Musubi had an incredible talent for combat and had been trained by Miya, making her progress astonishingly fast! Although she wasn't yet on par with Yume and Karasubaba, it was only a matter of time.
"Mm, Musubi will definitely work hard!"
With a sweet smile, Musubi adjusted herself comfortably in Sora's arms and continued watching the battle.
Since the two were of similar strength, the battle lasted for several hours. In the end, Yume managed to gain the upper hand, defeating Karasubaba and ending the fight.
Watching the disheveled Karasubaba being dragged back by Yume, Sora couldn't help but smirk.
Karasubaba was a pitiful soul. Yume seemed to be her natural nemesis, and even after all these years, she was still being suppressed by her. It seemed Karasubaba would never have her chance to rise…
However, Sora didn't feel sorry for her.
This girl was mentally unstable, and only Yume's sunny disposition could warm the darkness in her heart.
Of course, only Yume's fists could keep her in line.
"Lord Sora, Karasubaba wouldn't listen, so I had to knock her out."
Dressed in the same shrine maiden-style mini skirt as Musubi, Yume handed the unconscious Karasubaba over to Benitsubasa and Haihane.
Originally, she had only intended to teach Karasubaba a lesson, but Karasubaba insisted on continuing the fight, so Yume had no choice but to knock her out.
"Haha, it's fine. She won't behave unless you do that. She'll be fine after a nap."
"Now, let's head back to the capital."
When Karasubaba's madness kicked in, it was endless. Every time they fought, it was the same. Yume had to knock her out, or Karasubaba would never stop. So, Sora wasn't concerned.
Besides, with Karasubaba's constitution, this little injury wouldn't be a problem.
"Mm!" Nodding, Yume replied cheerfully.
…
After a month, Sora returned to the capital with the girls.
"Long time no see, Chairman!" In Minaka's office, Yume greeted him warmly.
"Long time no see, No. 8."
"Heh, I didn't expect you to actually bring No. 8 back to life!"
Staring at Yume, Minaka was also surprised. He was quite pleased that the most perfect Sekirei, second only to the Sekirei Queen, had returned.
"Tch, did you not believe in me?" Sora shot Minaka a disdainful look, feeling a bit exasperated.
"Ahem… Not at all! So, you're aware of the recent situation in the capital, right?"
Looking slightly embarrassed, Minaka quickly changed the subject.
"Yeah, I've heard. It's been so many years, and the Sekirei Plan is finally nearing its end." Nodding, Sora sighed with a hint of nostalgia.
"Time really flies, doesn't it?" Seeming to recall something, Minaka also sighed.
"What are you planning to do with the Ashikabi who didn't obtain a Jinki?" Although he already knew the outcome, Minaka couldn't help but ask.
"All Sekirei will be reclaimed! Since they failed, they must accept the consequences of being losers!"
Sora was well aware that his decision might sever many bonds. But since they were weak and couldn't protect their bonds, why should he sympathize with them?
"Alright, the Disciplinary Squad should be back in a few days. I'll have them send the people directly to you." Nodding, Minaka had no objections.
After all, neither he nor Sora were the type to be soft-hearted or indecisive!
After discussing a few more matters with Minaka, Sora left MBI with Yume and Musubi.
After leaving MBI, Sora didn't head straight back to Izumo Inn. Instead, he took Yume and Musubi to the base.
The base now housed nearly eighty Sekirei, a formidable force! To help them grow even faster in the coming days, Sora decided to have Yume train them.
While Miya guided the girls at Izumo Inn, the base had been lacking a strong instructor. Now that Yume was back, her fists would be more than enough to whip these juniors into shape.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Yume to conquer all the Sekirei with her sunny smile and icy fists. Even the usually prideful Uzume and Tsukiumi were completely tamed by her…
