--- Chapter 180 ---

Six days have passed after the slight problem Heroes Faction created in Kyoto. Yasaka resolved everything perfectly, cleaning the destroyed Nijo Castle and replacing it with the new one because it is still a tourist spot.

Apparently, the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi or Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven that the Heroes Faction tried to steal was a fake. The real one is always on Amaterasu's side after her brother gives it to her.

Huo Yuhao also learned why Cao Cao and his group wanted to possess Rune Stones through Jeanne. As the Dragon Nest's presence is known to the whole world, some of the knowledge from Douluo Dalu's Universe is leaked forcibly by reading Dragon Nest's member soul.

However, it was darker than that. A group of Evil Gods wants to use Rune Stones' essence to open the dimension gate toward Douluo Dalu's Universe.

Indra is somewhat connected to this matter because he was Cao Cao's supporter, but his attitude when meeting Huo Yuhao was weird. There is a third person between Cao Cao and Indra, which Huo Yuhao didn't know as he only watched the anime.

He lacked some information but was not discouraged by it.

Another question would be, why did Huo Yuhao stay for six days in Kyoto when the mission was already over?

The answer to that is relationship.

Huo Yuhao has five dates in a row with Venelana, Misla, Raikou, Robin, and Yasaka. Such jealousy-inducing news, but being a Harem Protagonist is challenging indeed.

Of course, Huo Yuhao didn't push their relationship further than going on a date because his relationship with these charming women and ladies is still shallow. Even though Huo Yuhao is horny, he knows how to keep his little brother in check.

Even with Yasaka, Huo Yuhao only enjoyed the onsen and alcohol with the blonde nine-tailed fox. They talked about life stories and hobbies they had, nothing special happened, but they felt good about the first date.

The only exception is Venelana.

The thirsty devil couldn't wait and requested Huo Yuhao to pop her cherry on their first date. As a gentleman, Huo Yuhao couldn't refuse and fulfilled her needs. He also added her to the peerage.

Huo Yuhao offered other ladies to join his peerage too, but Misla and Yasaka kindly refused because they felt their qualifications fell short compared to other women. They believed there would be more deserving individuals for the spot in his peerage.

In the end, Huo Yuhao only gained three more peerage members.

...

...

Huo Yuhao stood in the mountain field behind Yasaka Shrine and faced Kunou. The young nine-tailed fox created several fox-shaped fireballs and launched them at him.

He dodged effortlessly and noticed some fireballs were "actually." fake, which could confuse the enemy. Still, it won't work on him.

As the golden flash skipped the fireballs, Huo Yuhao tilted his head and dodged Kunou's fiery fist. He smiled and flicked Kunou's forehead gently, sending her flying like a shuttlecock.

"Ugh... My forehead." Kunou rubbed her forehead painfully. "Big brother Yuhao, at this point, I'd grow a horn and become an oni because of you."

Huo Yuhao chuckled and replied, "Haha, that won't happen."

Kunou puffed her cheeks and complained, "No fun!"

Shaking his head, Huo Yuhao went to Kunou's side and patted her head gently. "You've become more powerful in just six days, Kunou." He commented proudly.

"Keep training your flame and Spirit Energy, and you'll become even stronger than some gods in this world."

[Kunou's Loyalty has increased]

[You now could awaken Kunou's Martial Soul]

[Do you want to awaken Kunou's Martial Soul?]

[Yes/No]

"Here, I give you a little gift." Huo Yuhao pressed the yes and watched Kunou squirm uncomfortably for a moment.

[Ding! Kunou has awakened the "Mourning Fox's Feathers Fan."]

[Name: Mourning Fox's Feathers Fan]

[Type: Martial Soul]

[Grade: S+]

[Description: Mourning Fox's Feathers Fan is a martial soul awakened from the deepest part of Kunou's soul. It could control fire and wind elements. Also grants a blessing toward the deceased]

[Scanning Kunou Status...]

[Name: Kunou]

[Race: Nine-Tailed Fox(Youkai)]

Huo Yuhao choked on his tempura and chugged a bottled water empty to clear his throat. "Kunou, where did you learn these words?" He gave her a reprimanded look.

Kunou tilted her head and answered, "Eh? I mean, doesn't every girl teach when reaching a certain age?"

Nico Robin couldn't help but cover her face in embarrassment and mumbled, "Me, Yuhao-sama, babies..."

The lunch ended somewhat awkwardly, causing Robin to sometimes steal a glance at Huo Yuhao. She didn't say anything, but her intention was clear and shown on her face.

Huo Yuhao wanted to change the mood and asked, "Robin, do you miss your homeworld?"

However, Robin answered them pretty quickly. "Yes, I missed it."

"Even though my homeworld is full of chaos, it is a special place where I was born and held some of my dear memories... My family and friends are also still there, struggling to survive."

"There is still around nine to eight months before we would meet again at Sabaody Archipelago."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Then, I'll conquer this world quickly."

"I can't let you down, can't I?"

"No, you never let me down, Yuhao-sama. From the beginning till now, I have always been the one who received your help." Nico Robin shook her head while laughing wryly. "I am more of a freeloader at this point."

That's an understatement.

Nico Robin has been researching ancient magic under Azazel and the Devil Kings. Her talents and wits toward this field are rarer than Sacred Gear's Users, making her an exception in this world's standard.

Her ability is one of the few reasons why the area around the Nijo Castle, when the small war happened, is safe.

She also reached over level 70 in just a year. Spirit Masters with the old standards will lose their shits when hearing about this.

As they walked down the mountain, Grayfia appeared from a magic circle and said, "Yuhao-sama, Mistress is calling for you."

"There is an issue regarding the newly added Asgard Faction... They wanted to meet you in person. Mistress said you could refuse, but as the ruler of the Dragon Nest, showing your face is essential in this situation."

Huo Yuhao nodded and replied, "I understood."

"Let me say goodbye to Yasaka and Kunou first."

"Very well." Grayfia returned, staring at Robin calmly.

Nico Robin noticed Grayfia's gaze and responded with a smile.

...

...

At the front gate of Yasaka Shrine, Huo Yuhao is saying goodbye to the mother-daughter foxes duo. "We haven't talked much, but I appreciated your company, Yasaka, Kunou." He said while hugging them.

[Harem Protagonist activated]

[Quasi-Primordial Lucky Bastard activated]

[Milf Hunter triggered]

Huo Yuhao ignored Evo's notification and felt a soft sensation touching his lips.

Yasaka kissed him and said, "Likewise, Young Master Huo."

Kunou's face reddened when seeing this lewd act as she hugged Huo Yuhao's stomach tightly. "Big Brother Huo, are you going to be my father?" She asked in a not-so-innocent manner. There is also a hint of excitement in her voice.

"I don't know..." Huo Yuhao gave Yasaka a playful look.

"We'll see in the future, Kunou."

"H-Haha..." Yasaka couldn't hide her surprise and giggled nervously.

Waving his hand, Huo Yuhao and his companions left Kyoto with teleportation magic.

Huo Yuhao arrived at the backyard of Huo Yun'er quarter, seeing a black flash in the corner of his eye. "Yuhao Darling, Nyaa~!!" An excited voice rang across the garden.

It was Kuroka.

Huo Yuhao hugged the lovely Nekoshou and said, "Ah, I missed you too, Kuroka."

"Hehe~!" Kuroka chuckled while rubbing her chest on him.

"Hao'er." Huo Yun'er called from the window nearby. "Come in. There would be some guests in an hour."

"I want to make my son more handsome."

"Yes." Huo Yuhao replied helplessly.
