Chapter 125 - Spatial Gates

Once Yuki and Marcell arrived at the store, Yuki walked inside the back where the kitchen was and Marcell went to flip the sign which said "closed" to "open" once they were ready to start business once again. Just like the previous day, Marcell would come inside the kitchen about once an hour with a pile of dirty plates and bowls. However, unlike the previous day, the pile of plates which Marcel brought were much larger than before. Since Yuki was able to clean up at an extremely fast rate, Marcell could let loose and use his ability to make as much food as the customers wanted without having to worry about staying late to wash the dishes. As such, their profits would grow at an exponential rate as well. 

Once the first batch of dirty dishes came in, Yuki created his fire constructed flying hands and made them do all the work. While at first Marcell didn't trust the flames to be able to clean the dirty dishes without breaking or burning them, Yuki quickly convinced him otherwise by presenting how clean the plates were. Yuki had set up about 10 flame hands which all played their role in cleaning.

As time passed, Yuki continued to sit down on the chair which was in front of the island table in the middle of the kitchen. At some point Yuki had grown extremely bored of doing nothing. It wasn't as if he wanted to wash the dishes himself either since it would be a waste of energy and time. Instead, Yuki remembered something. 

"How could I forget!" Yuki said.

[Open inventory]

Yuki took out "Fallen angel of hell" out of his inventory and hugged it. It had been so long since he had made full use of his blade. He had been treating it as just a normal blade instead of unleashing the power which made it special. Yuki once again held his blade with both his palms as he closed his eyes and began to concentrate on pouring his stamina into it. Unlike before, Yuki was able to activate the red solid aura which shouded the blade with ease. To add on to that, Yuki was able to create 2 small spatial gates using his blade. From those spatial gates, Yuki was able to bring out 2 very small versions of the spatial blades which appeared when Yuki had accidentally used the full power of "Fallen angel of hell". Although it was a big accomplishment for Yuki at the time, in the grand scheme of things, it was minisquil to what he had done previously since the spatial blades were less than half the size of the real "Fallen angel of hell".

Right as Yuki began to have the blade under control, Marcell barged in the kitchen to give Yuki the next batch of dirty dishes. Right as he walked in the kitchen, he was surprised to see Yuki wielding a large blade with 2 other gates which had blades of their own. 

"I can explain-" Yuki said before Marcell could get angry. 

"Don't worry, there's no need to say anything. As long as you don't break anything and continue to do your job, I'm fine with whatever you choose to do with your free time," said Marcell. 

"Thank you for being so understanding. I'll get my flame hands started on washing the next batch of plates. The ones from last time are already cleaned and dried so you can take them with you if you want," Yuki sudjusted. 

Hearing this, Marcell munovered across the room and took the clean plates and bowls with him to the front of the store. After all, he did have many more customers to serve. After taking the plates and bowls, Marcell closed the door to the kitchen and went back to work. 

Now that Yuki was alone once again, he could concentrate on what he wanted to do. Which at that time was to see if he could manipulate the size of the spatial gates. At first, Yuki closed one of them and enlarged the size of the other one. In doing so, Yuki was able to increase the overall size of the one spatial blade he had to match the size of the original "Fallen angel of hell". 

Once Yuki increased the size of the spatial gates, Yuki tried to make the blade extend out of the gate like he had done the first time he used the spatial blades. However right as the hilt of the blade got out of the spatial gate, it stopped moving outwards. Yuki just assumed that the chains were clogged so he concentrated more and began to tug at the blade to push it outwards however right as he did that, Yuki felt a sharp pain in his chest which caused him to fall on his knees. Luckily Marcell didn't hear him as such he wouldn't be worried about Yuki which was the last thing he wanted. 

"Well, I guess that's my limit," Yuki said to himself. 

However, Yuki wasn't done testing out his blade just yet. Since he could increase the spatial blade gate to a certain degree, there was no reason why he wouldn't be able to decrease it as well. As such, Yuki once again closed his eyes as he began to concentrate and pour his stamina into "Fallen angel of hell". As the seconds passed, Yuki slowly but surely decreased the size of the spacial gate which also caused the spatial blade to decrease. 

Yuki had decreased the size of the spatial blade to the size of a toothpick which he could later on use as a sneak attack tool. Even if he didn't want to do that, Yuki could create a bunch of spatial blades all around him which could act as a detecting mechanism to sense anyone else who might try to attack him. However, if he wanted to do something like that, Yuki would need to make the shape of the spatial blade and chains a lot smaller which wasn't possible for him at the time as it took a high level of concentration and stamina to create something so small but still have it keep its original size.
