Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 234: I am a martial artist

"It seems my husband's clothes aren't big enough for you, Inugami-kun."

Aoi Tohsaka, the mother of the daughter who had helped him, felt her face was hot and blushed when she saw Tamazuki wearing her husband's clothes. Her husband's clothes were a little too small for him, so they showed his perfect body, causing her to show such a cute reaction.

"Sorry..."

Tamazuki could only apologize awkwardly, wondering why fate wanted to push him into the abyss.

Frankly, for him, who had always played with danger, this shouldn't affect him, yet he felt that this was a little bit too much!

Was this the effect of [Jupiter]?

How wonderful... wait! He meant, how outrageous!

Yet, he had to say the appearance of this young married woman eased him.

Tohsaka Aoi is a beautiful woman.

She has long, dark green hair and eyes of the same color.

She has this quiet and ideal version of a wife and a mother.

If he gave a comparison, she was like a white tulip.

While compared to others, the color of this flower lacked an impact, it was quietly beautiful.

Nevertheless, it was such a shame that she had a husband.

Even more unfortunate, she married the "Mage" and became part of a "Mage" family.

A Mage in this world is different from all the worlds that he had ever been.

In these words, the existence of the "Mage" was cruel.

The majority of them were the lowest kind of human, or rather, they couldn't be called a human anymore.

It might not be wrong to say that they had become a different race.

For their goals, they could do anything, even if they had to sacrifice their families.

For her, who was married in such a family, it was nothing but a misfortune.

Yet, for now, she didn't realize that, and she also didn't realize what kind of brutality that her family was about to face.

However, Aoi, who was still oblivious to everything, felt embarrassed and ashamed of her thoughts when she saw this young man. She was a wife and a mother of a daughter, yet how could she act like a shameful lady like this?

"Inugami-nii, are you a martial artist or something?"

Rin Tohsaka, who stood by her mother's side, looked at Tamazuki's body curiously. She thought that for someone like him, whose body was sculpted like a Greek God. No, even better. She felt that he could only be a martial artist.

'Martial artist...'

Tamazuki felt that this identity was suitable.

Still, it was impossible for him to say that directly, so he only showed an awkward expression.

Aoi could see the awkwardness on his face, so she quickly stopped her daughter from asking anymore. "Rin, you can't be so rude, okay?"

Rin stuck out her tongue with a cute expression, but she wasn't a naughty child, so she understood that her question might trouble Tamazuki.

"No, it's okay. She is correct. I am a martial artist."

Tamazuki gently patted Rin's head with a kind expression.

"Huh? Really? Then, are you in the middle of family feuds or being attacked by an enemy school or something? Or were you part of an underground fighter or something? Is there a king of fighters?"

Her eyes shone brightly as she thought about the world of martial artists that was filled with blood and hard work.

Tamazuki's expression became even more awkward while wondering why this little girl loved a martial artist so much.

"Rin!"

Aoi looked at her daughter helplessly, but she would be lying if she wasn't curious.

Nevertheless, the two of them were from a "Mage" family, so they wouldn't be surprised if a family of martial artists existed, but it was their first time seeing one.

"It's okay, Tohkasa-san."

Tamazuki didn't smile, but his expression was gentle. "My war is already over, and I am just wondering what I should do..." His expression was of those forlorn as he was looking into the distance.

A daughter and a mother stared at him in a daze, and they had the urge to hug him since his expression was so sad, and they could tell that he was just facing something sorrowful.

"Tamazaki-nii..."

Rin was on the verge of crying and hugged his leg tightly, watching his sad expression.

"Though I am still alive now, so maybe, there is still a meaning in this world, and I am searching for that."

He patted Rin's head and thought that it might be good to get Aoi as he could get an extra cute daughter.

Currently, he might be a high school student, but for him, who had been chased by that being and ran away to a planet in a different galaxy, age wasn't something that he cared about anymore.

So, even if he might be young, he didn't mind having a child.

Nevertheless, it might be hard for him to have children as he had become a higher being.

Unless he gets a new reward from the system.

"How... how about you stay here?"

Aoi suddenly said those words on impulse.

Yet, Tamazuki shook his head calmly. "Sorry, we just met, and I can't trouble you like this."

Aoi didn't expect Tamazuki would reject him so decisively, so she apologized. "No, it's okay... I am sorry for being abrupt."

"No, I am happy about your offer and..." He appeared a little embarrassed, but then his expression was full of sincerity. "It's my first time for someone to be so kind to me, but I might need a little more time to accept others' kindness. At least for now."

Rin and Aoi stared at him and thought that this young man was honest and kind.

"Is that so? Then, do you have a plan here?"

"Well, I might search for work."

"Should I get my husband's acquaintance to let you work in this city?" Aoi asked.

"Really... it's okay. You don't need to trouble me since I will be alright."

Yet, somehow, Rin and Aoi couldn't help but feel worried.

"But at least, how about you stay first, Tamazuki-nii?"

"But..."

"Yes, at least you should stay for a few days until you find a job."

Tamazuki wanted to refuse, but Aoi quickly stopped him. "Don't refuse me, okay?"

"But... I am not sure how to repay you." Tamazuki showed an awkward expression.

Aoi showed a gentle and kind expression. "It's okay. Just let yourself be pampered for a moment, okay?" She tenderly rubbed his cheeks, then patted his head with her soft and white hands.

Tamazuki knew that his acting was good, but he didn't expect that it would be so good.

Yet, somehow, he didn't feel surprised since his appearance was like a wounded animal, and because of that, they cared about him so much. Moreover, he was handsome.

There is a saying, "Being attractive is justice."

"Yes, yes. Stay for a few days, Tamazuki-nii!" Rin nodded in agreement with her mother's statement.

Tamazuki was quite awkward, but then a loud growling sound was heard.

Aoi and Rin looked at Tamazuki's stomach and laughed.

Tamazuki showed an innocent blush.

"That's right! Since you have taken a bath, how about we have dinner now? I have prepared dinner."

Tamazuki looked at Aoi, who gave him such a kind offer, and suddenly felt an impulse.

What should he do?

He thought that having a married woman wasn't bad at all.
