Rebirth in Against the Gods with The Ultimate System - 94 Chapter 94
Yun Che was bathing by himself after Kon passed out after staying in the hot water for too long. As he was washing himself he suddenly heard an alluring voice behind him.
“Young master, can I wash your back?”
When he turned around, he was blushing slightly as he saw Retsu walked in with her wrapped towel around her. That luscious legs with white and wet creamy skin stunned his eyes. If he were a normal man with less conscious, his desires would taken over him in an instant. Even those two well rounded breasts of hers looked appetizing. That towel is the only thing blocking him from the full view of her perfect body. She even looked ravishing and luscious as she lets her hair loose, making her look desirable. Too bad she wasn’t naked. Last time he saw her naked was during her rebirth in the inner world which Shirayuki closed his eyes afterwards.
He was startled for a while before calming down. “Retsu…? Why are you here? Where’s Jasmine?”
“She decided to soak for a while. But, I want to wash your back. Can I?”
“Ah, uhh. Sure…” He slowly moves forward so Retsu can take a dip as well and started to wash his back slowly. If he was a normal man, he would have lost control of himself at this point but to it’s a miracle that he cultivates a skill from his previous world. The skill that kept him of embarrassing moments and fear situations.
“Well, good thing the ‘Gamer’s mind’ passive skill works or else. Who knows what happen?” He slowly thought in his mind.
The ‘Gamer’s Mind’ passive skill is a skill that he developed during his adventures in his previous worlds. The skill allows the user to remain calm despite the raging situations. The skill will never allow him to feel fear or embarrassed in certain situations to avoid him committing a mistake he would regret later. Well, since he didn’t feel fear anymore. Fear wasn’t necessary. The skill also functions to suppress his inner desires and forces him to calm down if the limit is critical. However, that doesn’t stop him from being himself such as enjoying the softness of Retsu’s body or complementing her figure.
Suddenly, he felt Retsu suddenly hugging him pressing her huge and soft racks behind him. Yun Che was slightly shocked as Retsu was never this bold. She might sound inviting but being bolder wasn’t part of it. “Young master, are you listening in on us?”
He breath a breath of relief as it wasn’t the situation he imagined in mind. He grins slightly before rubbing the back of his head. “Ehee, busted. You know my senses are heightened. Right?”
Retsu shakes her head indicating she didn’t mind for him to listening in on her. “But, is there something we can do to help sister Jasmine?”
Yun Che widen his eyes at her questions but calmly spoke “No, we can’t revive a person. That’s not our task. Our task just guides the soul into the afterlife. However, we can revive the person who just recently passed by reattaching the soul back to the body but if the person wishes to passed. There’s nothing we can do.” Yun Che knew what she was talking about but didn’t want to give her false hope.
“But, young master. I really want to help sister Jasmine.”
Yun Che holds her hand wrapped around him and said “We can provide the comfort of a family to her. Tell her that she’s not alone. Soon, we’ll become real family anyway.”
Then, Retsu started to blush before deepening her hug against him. “Hnn, I look forward to that day. Young master.”Her face started to get red all of a sudden imagining the day where both of them walk hand in hand as husband and wife.
The moment last for a while in embarrassing silence before Yun Che decided to break the atmosphere. “By the way, I wanted to ask you, Retsu.”
“Ehh, what is it?” She jolted from her daydream.
“How long are you going to call me young master? You’re my fiancee and my soon to be wife. Maybe its about time you use my real name?” He slowly turned his head towards her.
She suddenly unwraps her arms around him and turned her back. “But, I tried practicing calling your name in secret. It still embarrassing.”
Yun Che rubs the temple of his nose while shaking his head. “Retsu. We kissed, hug, cuddle and even snuggle together but you’re still embarrassed when it comes to my name?”
“It’s still embarrassing for me.” Despite her boldness, Yun Che started to sigh. If it were the original hundred plus-year-old Retsu. She wouldn’t mind this kind of request. But, she was reverted back to 18 years’ old which is her younger self which is embarrassing for request like this one.
Then, he pats her head from behind to calm her down. “Try to call me by my name. You have to use it when we’re married in the future.”
She turned around and face him and said with some difficulties.”Muu. Then, let me try. Yuuu…yuuu..ki..-san.”
“Hmm, we can’t use my real name in the real world and you can drop the honorifics. What about Yuu-kun? My alternate name is Yun Che. So Yuu-kun should be in the middle.”
“Yuu-kun. Yuu-kun. Yuu-kun. I think I need some time to get used to it. Youn…I mean.. Yuu-kun.” She slowly said with an embarrassed face.
“There, you have to get used to it. When we’re married later. I think I am going to call you..” Then he slowly whispered to her ears. “Honey… or even Sweetie? Or Dar-ling..”
“Mouuuu, Yuu-kun. Stop it or I will die in embarrassment.” She said with a red face as she wasn’t ready for him to call her by those names.
Seeing her using his name casually, he grins and said “See, it wasn’t that hard.”
“Mou…. That’s mean, Yuu-kun. Teasing me like that.”
“Haha, you look so cute when you’re embarrassed.” But when he saw her embarrassed look and alluring eyes, those soft lips of her seems inviting him to get close. Then, He take this chance to deepen his bond with her by slowly moves to her face and said “Retsu..”
Retsu’s face was alluring. So beautiful especially covered with the water from the hotspring. As he got closer, she responded “Yuu-kun”
As they were approaching each other’s lips, a voice suddenly heard from the rock behind them. “Retsu, are you done? I am getting out to get dressed.”
As she said that, both of them startled at the same time before turning their heads towards the voice. It belongs to Jasmine who had a towel wrapped around her. If any man were to see her, they will be tempted and seduced by her. Good thing Yun Che skill was active or he will be tempted as well. Since she was used to having Yun Che around, she didn’t mind showing him her skin. Besides, he didn’t have any reaction gazing on her body which sometimes disappoint and annoyed her. She, a princess of the God’s realm have a body with unparalleled beauty but have no effect whatsoever with this blockhead?
Yun Che regained his composure and said “Oh, Jasmine? You’re done?” He wasn’t ready to gaze her her with a perverted intent. By the way, gazing her like that will make him more like a criminal and deserves to served a lifetime in jail.
“Yes, kind of. So what are you two doing?” Jasmine spoke while drying her wet hair.
“Nothing, she offered to wash my back.” As he was explaining, Jasmine’s eyes darted to the extremely embarrassed Retsu looking down in the water playing with her fingers.
Jasmine was protective of Retsu. She might tolerate if he do things out of her view but if he did things to Retsu in front of her. Maybe she’ll castrate that little brother of him. “What did you do to her?” She suspected Yun Che must’ve done something to her and asked him with a heavy atmosphere. Then, Yun Che can see that her right hand was forming into a fist and transformed into jade black.
“He teased me.” She slowly said caused Yun Che to widen his eyes. Then, he slowly turned to the extremely pissed Jasmine with a killing aura around her.
“Jasmine, let’s be civil about this.” Yun Che hold both of his hands in the air defending himself but Jasmine’s wrath knows no bounds especially when her friend is teased by a lecher. But, his pleas were deaf in her ears as she slowly walked above the water towards him.
*KNOCKS
“My bad, I am sorry.” Yun Che bows his head after getting hit by Jasmine. Even though her cultivation isn’t that strong yet but she coated her hand with haki before hitting him and it’s still stings a lot. Well, he did tease Retsu a lot so he can’t talk himself out of this.
“That’s what you get for being a lecher to her.” She folded her hands before looking at him before started to murmured in her mind. “Hmph, if only you looked at me with those eyes.” But, that will never happen. Until she turned into the legit Big bust Rias Gremory, then he’ll look at her with those eyes.
He fling her hair backwards and said “Anyway, I am going back to the inner world.”
“You’re going back?”
“Hmph, that woman over there is waking up. I am not revealing myself to her.” With that, Jasmine who was still in her towel transform into a streak of light back into Yun Che’s inner world. He sighs and said “At least she’s going to be surprised once she sees that hot spring in his inner world.”
Then he turned he eyes towards Retsu who darted her eyes somewhere and grins. “You sneaky little girl.”
“Sorry Yuu-kun, I couldn’t help it. You were teasing me and I needed get back at you.” She said making her looked really cute.
“I’ll be sure to tease you more in the future.”
“But, not in front of Sister Jasmine. She’s really protective of me.”
Yun Che sighs in defeat as he couldn’t talk back to Jasmine. “Sigh, you’re right.”
After a while, Cang Yue woke up after passed out from embarrassment and her fatigue. However, she woke up in a new area which isn’t the same as the area she passed out before. But she slowly embarrassed on she remembered that she kissed Yun Che on his cheek which turning her face into a steaming tomato. As soon as her eyes darted to the waters, she immediately saw Yun Che and Retsu next to each other smiling at her. But, their clothing…
Before they even know it, she was already shouting “Yuuu Yun Che… Sister Retsu!!!!, Why are you two in the water together? You two aren’t even dressed. Man and woman can’t bathe together… Sh..Shameless!!!” This is the first time she saw him without any clothing on his body which embarrassed her to the core. If Little Fairy were here, she would beat him senseless for being too shameless. Good thing she wasn’t here at all places.
Yun Che sweat dropped looking at her antics and said “Look like she’s okay. Well, I am to going to get dressed while you helped her cleaned up. I’ll take Kon and we’ll find something to cook for dinner. Then let’s continue our journey to the trial zone.”
“Hai, Youn…I mean Yuu-kun.” She said happily. He slowly pats her head before lifting Kon up to get dressed. Good thing he was wrapped with a towel on his groin area. He turns to the embarrassed Cang Yue who glued her eyes on his body and said “Why don’t you take a bath and here…” He pulls something from his inventory and a full set kimono folded neatly appeared on his hand before passing it to Cang Yue. “You should change from that palace robes of yours.” Cang Yue observed the palace robes she’s been wearing for the past month. Yun Che decided that it’s time for her to change to a new style as she is no longer have ties with the New Moon Profound Palace. Good thing Shirayuki and Kuroyuki made a lot of outfits. Never knew those two really like making clothes.
With that, Yun Che dressed himself back to his usual outfit with his white robe before woke up Kon. More like forcing him to wake up before travel around the forest to look for suitable beast for dinner. As for Retsu, she helps Cang Yue get cleaned up and dress herself up. Since she passed out most of the time, she didn’t know what is happening or their current location and Retsu filled her up with the information she needs.
After get cleaned up, Retsu helped her dressed with the Kimono as this is the first time she donned herself with one of the outfits Yun Che provided her. Never expected she had some affinity with Kimono. She was slightly embarrassed as this is the first time she wore such an outfit, wonder if would look good in Yun Che’s eyes.
“All right. Put the meat here.” Yun Che instructed Kon to carry the meat the hunt as part of Kon’s training but in reality he kind of turned that guy into a gopher.
Kon was in his cub form dropped the large chunk of meat to the ground, he shouted “Bastard, why did I have to carry this thing?”
He turned a deaf ear on him and said “Hey, I did the hunting. You carry them. Fair and square.”
Suddenly, he heard the same alluring voice which came from Retsu. “Yuu-kun, what do you think?”
Yun Che and Kon widen their eyes as they saw Retsu and Cang Yue coming out of the smoke of the hot spring donned themselves with the kimono. Cang Yue was wearing a sky blue kimono with a purple obi and white laces. The hakama underneath her were decorated with purple flowers almost matched the color of her hair. Couple with her fuchsia hair and adorable face, she looked absolutely beautiful. She admits this is the first time she wore such exquisite clothing even though she is the princess of the empire.
While Retsu used a different kimono this time. She used a black kimono alternate with purple flowery patterns. The black color serves as a lining for the flowery patterns along with white sleeves and black linings at the end. The white obi she was wearing had black linings at the middle and around it. Her hakama was white and with a purple flowery patterns. Coupled with her beauty and her braided hair makes her beauty radiate towards her surroundings.
Both of them looked really dazzling and beautiful as if they were fairies descended from heavens. Way beautiful compared to their previous outfit.
“Wow, you two looked really beautiful. I don’t know what to say.” He admitted that he was quite stunned when he looked at these two.
“So pretty.” As soon as he said that, Kon jumped towards the bosom but only greeted by Retsu’s fist directly on his face. Instead of feeling pain, he had a pleasured look on his face.
Seeing Yun Che’s reaction, Cang Yue had look of triumph as she managed to caught his eye with this kimono. If he really likes this kind of clothing, maybe she should get used to it. Retsu smiled to her and said “Aren’t you relieved he complemented you, Sister Yue?”
Cang Yue nodded while hiding her blushing face. She looked really dazzling as she can sway any man with her looks but she only wanted to sway one man. Retsu was used to his complements but she’s really happy if he is the one who complemented her.
Yun Che prepared them something to eat before they decided to resume their journey. After having their dinner, Yun Che decided to hit the deck on one of the soft spot on the hot spring. Despite having a bath and a new change of clothes, he knew these girls are dead tired from the fight. Forcing them to go is like torturing them so he decided to take a moments rest. He deployed a kido barrier preventing them from attracting unwanted attention as he lied down and beginning to descend into slumber. Resting after soaking and dinner especially after that kind of fight really does hit the spot. As he was sleeping, he was unaware that two figures slowly crept next to him and hug his sleeping body.
Morning came by faster than expected as Yun Che woke up well rested from his slumber. As expected, Retsu and Cang Yue snuggle with him all night long. Looks like after kissing him, Cang Yue has become bolder compare to her previous kind and composed self. After waking both of them up with some difficulties as they started to tighten the hug around him. They started to prepare for their next adventure in the Wasteland of Death.
With that marks the end of their small vacation as Cang Yue summoned her eagle and beginning to descend into deeper parts of the area.
Somewhere above the skies of Wasteland of Death
“The trial of the Dragon God?” Cang Yue started to ask him about the trial area. This is the first time she heard about the Dragon God. Last time it was the Phoenix God and now, the Dragon God. Yun Che started to talk about the Wasteland of Death which shocks Cang Yue as they are in one of the most dangerous area in Blue Wind Empire but she immediately calmed down after thinking about their massive strength. After that, he narrates everything about the Trial of the Dragon God which he got from his ‘master’.
“Yes, I heard from my master that deep in the Wasteland of Death lies a hidden trial which hold the same function as the Phoenix from before. So, before we head to the Imperial Capital. I should complete this trial first.”
“Then, how long do you need to complete this, Yuu-kun?” Retsu was used to his new calling which earn her a small smile from him. But, his mind remembered that particular part in the novel. This trial by fire that is totally different than the Phoenix trials. In the phoenix’s trial, the people unable to pass the trial will be ejected into the real world and will never undertake the trial no more. However, for the dragon god trial, people who can’t pass will die.
“Hmm, from what I heard. It depends on how fast I am going in there. The moment I complete the trial will be the moment I’ll come back.” However, even if he said that, The tests will test his innate talent, willpower, and determination. The trial’s difficulty is based his cultivation undertaking the trials strength and his current strength is the Peak of Sky Profound Realm.
“If you want. Yuu-kun. We can come with you to the trial and face it together.”
“No, let me face this one on my own. The trial only test one person. Besides, I’ll better face this trial on my own. It’s for the best.” He started to remember the last time Yun Che bringing a person into the trial. Ended up doing the deed with her. Besides, if he bring Retsu and Cang Yue into the trial, the difficulty will increase and Cang Yue’s strength is not enough to defeat such difficulty. He rather let her stay outside to be safe while Retsu trained her. He rather faced the trial himself then passed the powers of the dragon god to them in another way.
“But…” Retsu started to look down as she has to face separation from him again. Cang Yue was feeling depressed as well but if he could return within a day then all is good.
Yun Che slowly puts his hand on top her head and slowly said “Don’t worry. It’ll be done in an instant. Mostly take about a day if I am fast and strong enough.”
After flying for half a day, they finally arrived at the location instructed by the system. The area wasn’t that much as it was surrounded by a forest thick enough to cover the whole land. Surrounded by rocks and caverns. This area was creepy enough to scare any unwanted visitors. Despite being creepy, they couldn’t help but noticed that the only area wasn’t grow by the forest or grass was the area in front of a massive cave.
But to Yun Che’s eyes, this is the trial zone. This trial area was supposed to be destroyed by Little Fairy’s fight against the two dragons. Their fight turning this land into a complete wasteland before resulting of her crippled body and one of the dragon was destroyed by Jasmine.
As Cang Yue’s eagle landed on the area, a notification suddenly pops into his, Retsu and Kon’s mind.
[Ding… Detected massive amount of suppression aura nearby.]
Cang Yue didn’t know about the notification but she could feel her body was being suppressed by an unknown force. She had to depend on Retsu as her Absolute Suppression Skill aura was able to block all kinds of aura. Even from a god.
“So, this is the place.” Yun Che jumped from the eagle and landed in front of the massive cave. All of a sudden, the suppression aura suddenly disappeared and Cang Yue as well as her eagle regain their composure.
“What happened?” Cang Yue spoke while calming her eagle before return it back to its seal.
“That was scary, that aura suppressed us the moment we get here.” Kon said while standing on Yun Che’s shoulder.
“Probably trying to probe any unwanted challengers. From what I can see, the moment I jumped closer, the aura seems to be getting heavier but you know me and Retsu aren’t affected to this kind of aura. So, it dissipates itself. Probably that’s how the trial greeted their challengers. Besides, this place was supposed to have its own guardian.” The trial probably recognized Yun Che as a worthy challenger as he was able to dismissed the suppression aura. Probably why it dissipates itself.
“Guardians?” Cang Yue asked curiously.
“Remember the two dragons we fought yesterday? Those dragons are the supposed guardians of this place. Since both of them annihilated, so this place was left without a guardian.”
“Then, why did they left this place if they are the guardians?”
“Probably interested at the hollow’s gathering. You know these dragons do anything to get stronger. They even benefit from this place. Probably the energy emitted by the hollows interest them.”
“You sure know a lot about this place and the dragons, Yun Che.”
“W…well, its common actually. The phoenix trial had the clan and its not logic for this kind of trial is left without any guards right. So I just assumed those dragons are from here since the Wasteland is not that far from the fighting zone.” Yun Che explained while rubbing his chin and looked sideways. He got all this info from the system and Cang Yue doesn’t know about that. Nor that she ever will.
“So this is the trial area, Yuu-kun?”
“Yes, this is it. So, I should get going. You three should find a suitable place to camp. I promised I’ll be done by the end of the day.”
“Kon, this place should be full of profound beast. You should take this opportunity to level up.”
“Don’t worry about the beasts. Retsu’s aura can scare them away. So those beasts won’t dare to approach this area.”
“Then, I should go. I’ll be done by the end of the day.”
“Yuu-kun.” Retsu came to his embrace and he smiled before embracing her back. He talked to her about the reason he won’t take her with the Tenteikura. She understood his reason and decided to train Cang Yue to master her haki within his place. “Have a safe trip. Come back to us when you’re done.”
“Yes, I promise.” Then, he place his hand on her chin before pulling her closer and kissing her soft lips in front of Kon and Cang Yue. Both of them had gawking reaction but he carried on anyway. Since Retsu closed her eyes and enjoy their kiss. Their kiss last for several moments before he slowly separate their lips much to her disappointment. However, he started to walk towards the blushing Cang Yue and said ” See you later.”
“Hnn” Cang Yue slowly looked down as she was blushing hard. She wanted to say something but the words won’t come out from her mouth. However, Yun Che did the unexpected as he lift up her chin and plant a small kiss on the corner of her lips.
“Ara-ara.” Retsu said gleefully while Kon was ranting about his relationship with the ladies.
Cang Yue was too shocked for his action but before she could react. Yun Che already started to run and waved “Here I go” before disappeared into the darkness of the massive cave. He actually wanted to run away rather than dealing with the aftermath.
“Have a safe trip.” Retsu waved back replied like a lovely housewife watching her husband went to work.
“Hueeehh” Cang Yue started to turned into a steaming hot tomato before passed out in an instant but Retsu arrived on time and hold her before she fell to the ground.
“Man, she has a weak heart. If he keeps this up, she’ll die of embarrassment one day.” Kon suddenly commented on Cang Yue’s antics.
“*Giggle Don’t worry, she’ll be fine. Looks like we need some firewood to build a campfire.” She slowly said while cooling off Cang Yue with her kido.
Kon knew something was off and decided to run away but he was paralyzed by Retsu’s creepy smile on him. Before saying in a creepy but alluring voice. “Kooon, dash off.”
“Hai!!! I understand.” Kon shouted before dashing into the forest and look for some firewood.
