Chapter 153

Tsukasa was surprised and asked, “Are you sure?”

“Yeah.” Sakuya nodded. “I think you can become Level IV, right?” If it was someone else, she might not have the confidence they could become a Level IV so quickly since one needed to have a strong physical and mentality to become Level IV.

Unlike Level I to Level III, Level IV would be able to use the true power of the Blaze, so one needed a lot of preparation and training.

Tsukasa stared at Sakuya for a moment and nodded. “Thanks.” He took the syringe and stared at it for a moment.

“No problem.” Sakuya shook her head and said, “When are you going to use it?” She wanted to see what kind of power Tsukasa would manifest when he became Level IV.

“Now.”

“Now?”

“Yeah.” Tsukasa nodded and asked, “Can I?”

“Sure, it’s okay. You can use it right away.”

“So, can you step down a bit? I am afraid my body will be surrounded by flames again.” Tsukasa was afraid he might hurt Sakuya during the sublimation process since he knew there was a huge difference between Level III and Level IV.

Sakuya nodded and stepped down while looking at him curiously.

Tsukasa didn’t continue to sit down. Instead, he went to the veranda, where there was free space without furniture. He still remembered when he became an Exceed, and the flame around him was so intense that it would burn everything around him.

Tsukasa decided to be careful, so when he had made sure everything was alright, he injected the syringe into his body without hesitation like the Lukifer entered his body.

*Thump!*

His heart was thumping, and his complexion turned red.

‘It’s hot!’

Tsukasa could see a flame swirling around his body, and he could feel his body burning hot.

While Tsukasa might have gotten used to Stella’s flame, and Stella’s flame might be more intense than the Lukifer’s flame, the Lukifer’s flame not only burnt his body and innards. It also burnt his soul too, which was unbearable.

However, Tsukasa could feel his body becoming stronger and stronger, so while it was hurt, it was also exciting to him.

Slowly, Tsukasa controlled the flame before he absorbed it inside his body and successfully became Level IV.

The increase in physical ability and magic was obvious to him, but what made him even more excited was the true ability of the Blaze.

While Tsukasa knew the true power of the Blaze was rather plain, it was better than nothing, and frankly, the new ability he got was quite nice.

“Congratulations,” Sakuya said with a smile, feeling happy about his success.

“Thank you, Sakuya.” Tsukasa knew that it was his luck to be able to meet Sakuya by chance. If he didn’t meet her, without a doubt, it wouldn’t be easy for him to become Level IV since he might need a long time to do so.

“You don’t need to thank me all the time. You’re going to become my husband anyway. What’s the point of formality?”

“…”

Tsukasa was speechless and said, “Leaving the husband aside, I think it is still necessary for me to thank you. It might be something small for you, but it is something big for me. Also, this thank you isn’t a formality, but it is something that comes from my heart to show how grateful I am toward you.”

In his original world, he racked his mind to increase his magic and how to become stronger.

When he found one, he needed to become either a demon or something else other than a human.

However, in this world, Tsukasa only needed to inject the Lukifer into his body.

While the process was painful, it was only for a moment, but the result was that came from the pain was permanent.

Tsukasa was really grateful to Sakuya, and if there was something that he could do for her, he would do it without hesitation.

“Tsukasa…”

Sakuya stared at Tsukasa in a daze.

“What? Do you have something that you want me to do?” Tsukasa asked.

Sakuya thought for a moment and nodded. “Yes, I do, but may I ask what kind of ability you received after you became Level IV?”

Each individual had a different type of ability when one became Level IV.

Sakuya wondered what kind of ability Tsukasa had received.

“Sure.” Tsukasa nodded, and suddenly he started to float and flew to various places in the air.

“Flying?” 2x

Sakuya and Mikuni were surprised.

However, Tsukasa hadn’t ended and summoned his Blaze.

A black cubic with several red marks appeared, and it started to duplicate itself into hundreds of cubics as it moved around in the sky before he landed on the veranda again and said, “No, my ability is something like telekinesis.”

“Telekinesis?!” 2x

In simple terms, it is to move, manipulate or otherwise interact with objects or matter with one’s mind.

Tsukasa wasn’t sure of the limit of this ability since he just got this ability, but inside his head, he had already thought of many ideas to develop his new ability.

Also, one of his dreams created a million sharp sakura leaves as a means of an attack that would be fulfilled soon.

“That’s a great ability.”

While Mikuni and Rito had similar abilities, neither of them could fly.

However, Tsukasa could do that, and he could also even create many things with his Blaze as long as he understood the mechanism and everything, including the battle armors of the people who attacked them last night.

Without a doubt, Sakuya thought Tsukasa was his husband-to-be.

“Now, can I ask for my reward?” Sakuya asked.

“Now?” Tsukasa asked unsurely.

“Yes.” Sakuya nodded.

“I didn’t bring anything with me. What do you want as your gift?” Tsukasa asked. He had promised to do something for her, so while her request was unexpected and so sudden, he didn’t mind and felt curious about what she wanted him to do.

“Kiss me.”

“…..” Tsukasa and Mikuni.

“Sorry?”

“Kiss me.”

“No, I hear that, but I think it is impossible.” Tsukasa didn’t want to enter the jail, so there was no way for him to kiss this girl.

“Didn’t you say you would do anything? Are you going to break your promise?” Sakuya asked while staring at Tsukasa.

“…..”

Tsukasa blinked his eyes while looking at Sakuya, wondering why this girl was quite promiscuous. Still, he wasn’t the type of someone who would break his promise, and he also didn’t really have any strange feelings toward this little girl.

Tsukasa didn’t have an interest in Sakuya now, but it was different if it was five or six years later when she reached legal age.

“Okay.”

“Eh?” Sakuya was surprised.

“Come here.”

Mikuni, who saw this, hesitated whether he should stop it or not. However, he sighed in relief when he saw Tsukasa only kissing Sakuya’s forehead.

Tsukasa lifted Sakuya’s bangs and kissed her forehead gently like an older brother who cared for his little sister.

While the kiss wasn’t one that Sakuya imagined, she was in a daze while staring at Tsukasa.

Tsukasa patted Sakuya’s head and asked, “Satisfied?”

“Um…” Sakuya nodded with a blush, tracing the feeling of wet lips on her forehead with her fingers.

“Then I’ll go back now.”

“Okay~~!”

“…..”

Tsukasa looked at Sakuya in silence and let out a sigh, hoping he wouldn’t need to enter jail for this.
