I Will Be The Harem King - 64 Time With Kagura
Right now, Kagura and I are sitting under a tree in a small forest of trees behind the guild. After the fight, Kagura has been quite and has been in the middle of contemplating something. It seems she was trying to learn something from the fight. Although most would say that it wasn’t a fight and was merely a little scuffle that lasted a few seconds. To the truly trained fighters, a few seconds of a fight is much longer than others presume it to be.
Those kind of people have trained their bodies to the limit and so can do multiple movements in a single second. For example, a normal person may take teen seconds to throw twenty punches but a trained person can throw the same amount in five seconds to a single second. It not only depends on the amount of movements you do in a single second but also the strain your body can take.
For Kagura, that few seconds were like an hour long fight. Not long enough to have her out of breath but enough to truly give her things to think about. This was the same thing I went through. Despite all of my fights not being long, for us who were fighting it felt like we did. Although I wasn’t a seasoned warrior then, I had trained my body to my limits at the time and my body could also take the strains of multiple movements in quick succession.

Anyway, I let her go through what she learnt from that and stayed silent. Meanwhile I enjoyed the sight before me. Just like how she looked the part, she also acted like a Japanese. She was sitting in a seiza position with her hands on her knees and her head bowed slightly with her eyes closed. Her sword was next to her as the wind blew her hair to the side from time to time. She opened her eyes after a while and stared at me.
“Thank you. Although I wasn’t able to fulfill my promise to get you serious, I have realized my increase in strength and I was able to see one of the top of the current mages. When I had found out just how strong you were when news started to spread about your exploits, I knew I had to get stronger if I wanted to find my brother and stand by your side.” She started off as she went on some sort of acceptance speech or something.
“No need to be so formal. Anyways, I’ve been meaning to ask someone this in detail but never got to it. What exactly was told in the rumors about me. I mean I know the rumor were about me going around fighting people but I don’t know about the finer details.” I could only smile at her words as I asked her my question that I wanted to ask for some time now. I’ve been meaning to ask this to Makarov or some of the girls but never was able to for one reason or another.
“The normal people were shocked and also impressed that such a young person had managed to fight those long famous mages from the beginning but the magic council and the truly strong mages didn’t spend too much of their attention on this news.” I could only nod my head at that because for normal people magic was something that grew stronger with age so a boy appearing and fighting men who has stood at the top for so long and live through it questioned their beliefs in regards to magic.
But those truly strong mages and those in the magic council, along with the royal family and their person guards knew that it wasn’t age that brought the best out of a mage but talent and training at the beginning and then experience as they grow. So all they must have thought was that a good enough mage was in the making. But from the way Makarov talked about this when I first arrived in the guild it looked like something changed.
“But that changed when you fought God Serena.” As expected. That rattle mouth must have said something that changed the opinion of the council and the wizard saints along with Jura who must have backed up some of the thing he said in some form. This could have led to the royal family getting in on the know as well.
“God Serena said that you were able to punch him in the face twice and make him bleed. None of the other wizard saints are able to do that. So you can guess why the council started to pay more attention on you. And then Jura came saying that he also fought you and that it ended in a draw. Although he also said that you seemed to be holding back quite a bit and that should the match had continued he would have lost. This once again increased the council’s interest in you and they began to search for you.” Kagura finally managed to fill out all the details of the rumors about me and to be honest, I don’t care.
The fame that I got from this little adventure didn’t really interest me and the council wanting to find me? That doesn’t sound like anything pleasant at all. So yeah, I don’t really care. I was just doing what I wanted to and will continue to do so.
“Ok, now that the boring stuffs out of the way. How about we get to catching up now?” There was no need to think of all these things too much since it already happened so I decided to change the direction of the talk.
The day was spent just talking with Kagura and to my relief, she didn’t turn into a yandere. It seems having heard my rumored strength didn’t give her enough time to think about that and she spent all this time to either get stronger or look for her brother Simon. I have never been so thankful to the rumors that I unexpectedly created.
We did have a few moments here and there where the atmosphere turned pink. Mostly me since Kagura was the quite type and was a pessimist when it came to relationships. But it was really cute to see her like that. You know, blushing and squirming.
All we did was talk to each other and when night came we didn’t even notice. We were about to continue but then I suddenly felt a massive tug. Not physically. Like something was pulling on my soul. Because of this I promised Kagura to visit again before I took my leave. And as soon as I teleported into the hotel room I had booked in the town, I blacked out.
