Echo Reincarnation Journey Through Multiverse - Chapter 29

It’s been three years since I lost my V card, Virgin for three lifetimes. I should have already become a Sage. Now, I am 18 years old and just graduated from College at Teihou University the one that Kanou Akihiro graduated from.

Kuro and Shiro because of my guidance succeeded in skipping grade for a year. Now, they are a second-year at Kamii University taking business management since they didn’t want to repeat their father’s failure in managing a company.

Touka wants to enjoy her school life so she goes to school normally. Though she only has one friend at school, she is content with it. Her work at Anteiku proceeds without a problem. Like my prediction, she has become a foodie now and always drags us to a culinary tour. She also starts to learn cooking.

It’s been an uneventful year except for Yomo introducing his friend Uta and Itori to me. He told them that I have an RC solution that can increase RC cells to them and they want to buy it. Good thing that he didn’t tell them about the Serum or I has to kill them since I know that Itori was an information broker.

Another thing that happens is that I got acquaintance with Tsukiyama Shuu. He tried to get me to go to his Banquet like what he did to Kaneki. But, one look at him with my Mystic Eyes and he immediately abandoned the thought of messing with me. Because, anyone that was looking at mystic eyes of death perception will feel absolute fear of death from the depths of his soul. From then on he always stays away from me.

He also meets with Eto on many occasion, she is close with the twins now. She also brought Tatara to meet him once and he also becomes Echo sparring partner like Eto. He also told them his identity since it was tiring to hide it all the time. At first, they were angry with him selling and manufacturing quinque which is an anti ghoul weapon. But, thinking about it does humans hate a weapon maker for making a weapon? The answer is no, all that is just business and since Echo didn’t especially target them, they let it pass.

Right now, I was at Anteiku. Looking at this world protagonist joking around with his friend. Kaneki Ken, the miserable victim of Kanou. Half-human half-ghoul that his life was full of misfortunes from his mother died because of overwork, his girlfriend tried to eat him, becoming a ghoul, friend being killed, tortured, etc.

His life was so full of up and down and I will not prevent him from becoming a ghoul but I can help a little bit after that. It makes me think, who will Kanou turn into a ghoul with Nashiro and Kurona with me.

Right now Kaneki friend, Hideyoshi Nagachika was trying to flirt with Touka which she answers by pointing at me saying that I was her boyfriend. He looks at me then deflates himself into the table.

Not long after, Kamishiro Rize comes and makes eye contact with Kaneki. Seeing this, I know that it was about Time that the canon start. I look at them for a while until his friend left him alone.

Echo:” Touka, I am going home now. I’ll be here when your shift is over.”

Touka:” Okay, then come at 7.30 pm.” She said while taking an order.”

Echo:” Yeah, well then. See you later Yoshimura-san, Koma-san, and Irimi-san.” I got up and left the cafe. As I walk out, I look at Kaneki and Rize for the last time and left.

Kaneki POV

I was now at Anteiku with Hide, this cafe was now one of my favorites to hang out. Right now we are waiting for my crush to show Hide her looks.

Hide:” Hey, Kaneki Is she not here yet? Is it her or that girl in the window? Or that cute waitress over there?” he looks around while pointing every girl here asking me which one is her.

Kaneki:” It’s not her! Don’t point around at people, This is embarrassing! Although you are right that the waitress is cute. But, the one I like still hasn’t come yet.” I answer him while trying to calm him down. When we are talking, the waitress comes to us.

Touka:” Hello sir, can I take your order?” she asked us with a smile.

Kaneki:” Ah, I will order a coffee and a Hamburg steak, please. What about you, Hide?”

Hide:” I want to know what your name. Cute waitress-chan, do you have a boyfriend?”

Kaneki:” Hide, what are you doing? I don’t want to be banned from here because of you.”

Touka:” fufufu, it’s alright. My name is Kirishima Touka and I have a boyfriend. Look, there he is at the bar seat.” hearing her, we look at the bar seat and see a man with a wavy black hair looking at us or precisely at Touka-san.

Hide:” Aaahhh, my love leave just like that. Then Black Coffee for me with a little bit sugar for this bittersweet feeling of mine.” he said and deflated on his seat. Touka-san chuckles at his antics and left with our order.

Kaneki:” Hide, can you not do that? I don’t want to be banned from here. This is one of my favorite places and where I can meet her.”

Hide:” Calm down Kaneki, they won’t do that for something so trivial.” he said and look at the TV showing news about Ghoul and it’s danger.

Hide:” It’s scary isn’t it? Out there, in a place we don’t know. there’s a species that look like us human that eats human.”

Kaneki:” You are right, but I think we don’t have to be afraid since there is CCG that will protect us from them.”

Hide:” I don’t know about that. They can’t be everywhere to save us from them. You have to be careful Kaneki, you are the types that easily fooled.”

Kaneki:” Oi, what do you mean by that?”

Hide:” Ahaha, I just want to warn you as a friend.” he said and as we laugh, she comes in and walk past us she crossed eyes with me and go to her seat.

Hide:” Is that her? It’s impossible, give up! She’s not on your league.”

Kaneki:” and why is that? We don’t know if I don’t try.”

Hide:” Well, if you go out with her it will be like the Beauty and the whatever!”

Kaneki:” It’s the beast!”

Hide:” Hahaha, Now that I have seen her. I’ll leave now. Bye Kaneki”

He said then left me alone. Then I heard the boyfriend of Touka-san talk to her that he was going to leave. He walks past m, I feel that he looks at me and Rize-san before he left the cafe.

Seeing him leave, I then take out my book to read and look at Rize-san to see that she also read the same book as me. We look at each other for a while then she giggles at me. She gets up from her seat then walks towards me and sits in front of me.

Rize:” It seems that we have a same hobby. My name is Kamishiro Rize, nice to meet you. You are?” I look at her, stunned. Then I woke up the she asked my name.

Kaneki:” Ahh, nice to meet you. My name is Kaneki Ken and I know about you, Rize-san.”

Rize:” fufufu, Really? What do you know about? I hope it’s nothing bad right?”

Kaneki:” No! I mean, I just know your name and you always come here at this time.”

Rize:” Heeeh, then we must know about each other more from now on. How about a date this weekend?” I was entranced by her and then when I hear her word I was shocked but I immediately answer here.

Kaneki:” D-date? With me? It’s my pŀėȧsurė!”

Rize:” Then, let’s meet this weekend in front of this cafe. I’ll let you choose the place of our date. Well then, see you later.” she said then left the cafe after paying her bills. Leaving me in my seat with a grin on my face.

Kaneki:” I should tell Hide about this.” I get up and pay my bill then left to search for Hide.

—

In another place, there is a meeting called by the Washuu clan.

???:” Kanou, How is it the project of artificial ghoul?”

Kanou:” It’s already at its final stage. All that I need is a guinea pig to test it but I already got that covered, Tsuneyoshi-sama.”

Tsuneyoshi:” Good, with this we can start to mass-produced them. Proceed with it at haste.”

Kanou:” As you wish”

W. Yoshitoki:” Chairman, we also already have many Ghoul investigators now, our weapon development also improved from studying the weapon created by the Yamagami-Gumi.”

W. Daikichi:” Tch, we should destroy them or ȧssimilate them at that time, before they get stronger. Look now, they’ve been ȧssimilating many smaller Yakuza gang around them. If it continues like this, they will become a threat to us.”

Tsuneyoshi:” Calm down, Daikichi. At that time we don’t have the resources and manpower to do it. Now, we can start to deal with them after the project finish.”

W. Daikichi:” Okay, doesn’t mean I have to like it.”

Tsuneyoshi:” Well, that’s all about this meeting. You all can disperse, Kanou hurry up with the project. If you need materials, tell me about it.”

Kanou:” Yes, Tsuneypshi-sama.”

After that they left the room to their own business, leaving Tsuneyoshi alone in the room.
