CHAPPY 23 - “I’M HERE TO ESCORT THE MISTRESS.”
--[--]...[--]--
Shenhe took out a card from her cleavage and showed it to Mirko without thinking much about it.
Seeing that the card was issued in the U.S. cleared her suspicion about her unknown origin, and removed her from possible Villains.
"Well, good to know that you aren't a criminal or something. But what is a U.S. Hero doing here?" Mirko returned the card and asked.
"I'm here to escort the Mistress." Shenhe glanced at Kyoka, telling them that she was the mistress, which surprised both Momo and Mirko.
"What kind?"
"My master's lover." Shenhe replied bluntly, causing Kyoka to smile wryly at Momo who was glaring at her trying to hear it from her.
Mirko blinked multiple times, confused about whether what she heard just now was real or not. She then realized how the generation had changed, from the past which refrained from talking about such things and now someone so young had become someone's hidden lover.
Not wanting to be involved, she bid them farewell.

On the other hand, the culprit was lazing on the sofa with his head pressing down on Cyrene's thicc thigh that rippled with every small move.
"Hmm, what's true love?" Kenjiki blurted out as he watched the TV show sideways.
"What's this? Is endless sex still not enough for you?" Cyrene was taken aback by his words. Now that she thought about it, Kenjiki was getting more humane after reincarnating here.
Remembering that he didn't just snatch All For One's quirk after finishing toying with him like his previous self would do. It wasn't an inherently bad change, having an emotionless sex-killing machine as her partner wouldn't do any good.
"Anyway, there's no true love, at most it was a very very tolerant partner." Cyrene brushed his head.
"Then, from all of my wives. Who's the most tolerant one?" Kenjiki returned to his lucky-go-round vibe.
"Of course it's me." Cyrene puffed her chest, as it jiggled on his face.
"Right…" Kenjiki looked at his supposed best wife flaunting her assets over his face. "Also, I've been thinking about it for a while. How do I activate the ability that I got from 'him'?"
In the years that Kenjiki had spent in this world, he had tried to use the ability that he asked for. But no matter how he did it, he didn't receive any new abilities.
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
"You didn't know??" Cyrene had a strange expression on her face.
As far as she was concerned, Cyrene thought that the reason he hadn't been using his ability was because quirks wouldn't really benefit him at all.
Now that she thought about it again, this husband of hers wasn't that keen on new things.
"Do you know about lifeblood? Cyrene asked, in which he tilted his head in confusion. "Lifeblood is basically a pseudo-real hard drive that contains everything about a living being's physicality. From their appearance, abilities, life history, and everything that makes them."
"So, soul? Do I have to be a Soul-Eating Vampire now?" Kenjiki pondered, before concluding that his ability was horseshit. "Can you even see soul?"
"You can think of it that way. Anyway, explaining with words wouldn't result in anything." Cyrene found it hard to explain the concept of Lifeblood, to anyone who hadn't seen it.
At the same time, everyone who had seen Lifeblood or had made contact with it was probably the Universe Supervisor in charge of recycling dead people.
"How about we test the ability by meeting our Transcendent?"
--| Some Days Later |--
Kenjiki and Cyrene could be seen walking around a park where a bloodied corpse of a monster lay on the ground.
"Are monsters supposed to be this common?" Kenjiki asked as he observed the corpse.
In less than a minute of walking upon arriving at the park, there were actually 3 dead monsters just lying on the pavement.
"I suppose not, or else there's no way that those people would stroll around the park knowing about the monsters." Cyrene glanced around in her new fit.
Unlike her previous fit that showed every part of her body to Kenjiki, today she wore a black skin-tight dress that showcased her exaggerated figure layered with her usual coat.
"Anyway, do you want to test it on this?" Cyrene asked as she looked at the gruesomely mangled corpse that still had its head intact.
Kenjiki infused his right hand with pure condensed mana that took him quite some time to gather. He looked at her as if wanting a confirmation, and once she gave him a light nod.
*Crack*
With a crack, his hand pierced the corpse's skull and smushed the brain tissue. Pulling back his hand, it wasn't stained or grazed in any way, instead, it was clean due to the mana preventing anything from even getting close to his hand.
Looking at his palm, he had a confused face because there was nothing there.
He was sure that he had followed Cyrene's instruction. From what he gathered, he should've had an orb of mana floating over his palm supported by the mana he had imbued his hand with.
"You've succeeded, it's just that you don't have the sufficient sense or eyes to see it." Cyrene waved her hands in front of his eyes.
The moment her hand passed his eyes, Kenjiki had a change of expression when seeing the scene above his palm. It was a glowing blue cocoon that housed a few glowing butterflies in it.
It was wholly different from his imagination. He was expecting some sort of dense ball of mana that spun around like that one wind ability he had seen before.
Seeing that it was harmless, Kenjiki unhesitantly put the cocoon in his mouth which caused Cyrene's expression to change drastically.
"Why did you do that?!" Cyrene shouted in horror as her hand sped up leaving a few afterimages behind.
In less than a fraction of a second, her hand was inside his mouth and pulled nothing.
Cyrene gruntled as the confused Kenjiki felt his whole body numb and started to squirm around in pain that came from his entire body.
"It wasn't a literal consume, you dumbass." Cyrene sighed, as a familiar blue cocoon grew around his body, sealing him inside.
