ASFUCITWON Chapter 192: Are You Sick?
🕑 Added 2025-04-18 15:51:51 +0000 UTC“…Are you sick?” Reiji asked, his tone filled with disbelief.
“Or could it be... after you fell into a coma, your brain got damaged? Wait, do you even have a brain?”
“I mean, you’re just a dragon spirit bound to me, right? So… technically, you don’t have a brain, do you?”
Reiji’s tone was half-joking, but the expression on his face couldn’t hide his deep astonishment.
“You jerk, human!” Orihime exploded in frustration, her voice trembling with anger.
Orihime’s face turned red, her expression a mix of uncontainable annoyance and overflowing anxiety.
“I just... I just thought, if you try to face everything alone and end up getting killed, then I’ll be killed too!”
Orihime’s eyes were tense, as if there was a fear held back within her, but she was trying hard not to show it.
Reiji, standing calmly in front of Orihime, raised an eyebrow, a thin smile still gracing his face, though there was a hint of concern behind his sharp gaze.
“Alright! Alright!” Reiji replied casually, as if there was nothing to worry about.
“Anyway, I’m strong enough not to just die like that.” Reiji’s voice sounded firm, full of confidence.
Yet there was a slightly softer tone than usual, as if Reiji was trying to reassure Orihime not to worry.
“Even though my current strength is not even half of what I had in my previous life, I’m still strong enough not to be easily killed.”
Orihime huffed loudly, her expression growing more intense.
Her face was sulky, her lips trembling slightly as she held back the anger and worry that had built up.
“Tch! I just don’t want to die,” Orihime said, her voice sounding like a suppressed cry.
“Because you’d die from being too weak!” Orihime’s eyes bore into Reiji’s with a sharp gaze, as if she couldn’t understand why he remained so relaxed in the face of all this.
Reiji, despite his smiling face, had eyes full of confidence that seemed to challenge the world.
“Whatever,” Reiji said lightly, as if there was no problem at all.
Reiji’s smile widened even more. “Anyway, there’s something I need to do now, so I’m off.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Reiji turned around and vanished in an instant, leaving Orihime standing there with a disappointed look, the smoldering anger in her eyes unable to be hidden.
...
...
...
Reiji’s steps felt light as he walked out of his subconscious.
As he stepped out of the house, the fresh morning air greeted his face.
The morning breeze blew gently, carrying the scent of damp earth still rising from last night’s rain, adding to the tranquility that surrounded him.
Reiji smiled faintly, a smile full of hope and confidence.
In the distance, he saw the members of the Uzumaki Clan who had now returned to their place.
A sense of relief flowed through him as he saw them, their lives returning to normal.
Last night, Reiji had said that the best thing was to return the members of the Uzumaki Clan to continue their lives.
Where Reiji knew for sure that the Protective Island Sealing Technique he created was an unshakeable protection.
In his heart, Reiji was confident that no attack could penetrate that protective power.
Thus, he allowed them to return to their daily lives without worry.
As Reiji’s gaze drifted around, he heard the sound of conversations surrounding him.
Some residents who had just returned were talking animatedly.
Their voices echoed in the calm morning air, yet also filled with anxiety.
“Hey, have you heard?” A voice from a simply dressed man rang out loudly.
