67: Higher Demigod
Too many things happened, in fact... they keep happening as time goes by after the end of the battle. First off I didn't receive any abilities from Jeanne D'arc, a bit sad... I only received a thousand Chaos Points.
[+1000 CP]
But things got a bit more interesting with Heracles, son of a b*tch killed me once so it was good that he gave me something useful.
[+1500 CP].
[Congratulations, you have obtained a new skill: Sun Explosion].
I don't know how it works or what it does, but I know Heracles could explode anything he came into contact with, so it must be something like that. And lastly, Georg... this guy gave me a surprise.
[+2000 CP].
[Congratulations, you have obtained a new skill: Moonlight Mist].
With this one, I have no idea. This guy was just spamming protective spells all the time to protect against Disruption, I don't even know what his power was aside from magic... some research will be required. The most important profit though... was my rank up.
[Rank Up! Higher Demigod].
The only downside... that costs quite a bit of chaos points.
[System Capabilities have doubled].
[Physical Capabilities have doubled].
[Moon Authority +30%].
[Congratulations, you have obtained a new ability: Radiation].
I received yet another ability and just felt my strength... I feel stronger although I don't know by how much. Physical capabilities doubled, does that mean my super strength? I mean I was already steamrolling Heracles as I was...
[Don't underestimate this rank up, as I promised we will start your training soon and then you will notice the difference. Although physical strength is one of our fortes I didn't even need to use it the majority of the time... it is unsightly to even have to touch an opponent in order to defeat it]
The haughty Elysir is back, sure... we wouldn't want you messing up those nails, goddess. I'm actually looking forward to the training to see how strong I have become. The fight with Heracles was fun but he's just a stepping stone. I know he's weaker than Diehauser and Risevim.

"Ray-chan!"
"Son-in-law!"
Ray embraced the two ladies who jumped at him the moment he showed up, a little astounded at Sanae's openness but he sort of imagined she'd also be afraid under those circumstances. He patted both of them lightly before the milf realised what she was doing and backed off a bit, standing next to Yuki but still smiling in the joy that all of them managed to live past this hurdle.
"It's glad that you're all okay but I really would like to know what happened" He said, trying to make a picture of the whole situation before he arrived and yet unable to. He didn't even know why they were attacked by such a lineup, was Cao Cao's objective Yasaka? but it wasn't just him in there, there was another group.
"I apologise, Ray-kun. It was all so abrupt and unexpected… but this is my fault" Yuki confessed with a deep bow and regret, Sanae patted his back, that was until she caught the sight of Yasaka coming together with Hasshaku-sama.
"Yasaka-sama, thank you so much… I don't deserve it" Sanae knelt in front of her ex-master while Yuki glared at Kuu with apprehension.
Yasaka nodded; her gaze determined to settle down all past scores, she bent down to pull the lady back up much to her shock.
"I believe we all have much to talk about, Sanae. Kuu invited us to have a cup of tea at her place so that we can discuss everything that happened".
The husband and wife stared at the tall woman who not so long ago had been their enemy even now she was carrying one of their enemies on her shoulders.
"Fufu~ you're all welcome. Let's leave adversities to the side as we're rivals joined together to fight the same foes".
"Sure…" Yuki accepted albeit reluctantly.
To go to her place to get a cup of tea, that was the plan but nothing went according to the plan.
"Ma ma~ looks like I'm homeless now" Kuu-sama pouted playfully towards the fox who all of the sudden became the centre of attention.
"Sorry..." Yasaka sighed, in front of the group there was nothing but a pile of debris. During her fight with Cao Cao and the Vanishing Dragon in her berserk state, she happened to blast both of them exactly where Hasshaku-sama's house was, destroying it.
"We should head to Sapporo, there will Onmyouji expecting us there and we can book a hotel in the meantime, this incident is sure to have garnered a lot of attention if even Grigori made a move" The kitsune stated and pulled Ray's hand.
"Yasaka?"
"Sapporo is a good few kilometres away... you should ride on my back" It was as if she forgot that it wasn't just the two of them.
"Riding the fox, how romantic~"
Yasaka snorted towards the ancient Youkai who seemed hell-bent on teasing her throughout the journey, perhaps as a vengeance for her destroyed house. As if that wasn't enough, Anna pulled on Ray's sleeve and pouted towards Yasaka.
A spark of lightning flew by between the two until Yasaka realised that her current rival was a fourteen years old girl.
'What am I doing...?'
*Cough!*
"All of you mount my back and we will head to Sapporo as I have to meet the priestess of that shrine to talk about this incident".
...
"Yay!" Naturally Anna was the most thrilled when it came to mounting the back of a massive fox and flying into the nightly skies.
"This is certainly amazing~" Hasshaku-sama remarked with a whistle.
"Don't get used to it" The fox growled.
Yuki and Sanae sat on the side and Yasaka didn't lose on the fact that Sanae was rubbing her fur.
...
"Ray-chan… can I have it?"
"H-Here?"
"I want it…"
Anna started all of it and Yuki was in the verge of popping up some veins when Ray bit his finger and drew some blood, putting the finger in Anna's mouth.
!!!
All of the sudden, everything started to make sense.
"Ray-kun…"
"It is a bit embarrassing I know-"
"How long have you been giving her your blood…?" His eyebrow twitched and even Hasshaku-sama was giggling.
As for Yasaka, who sensed everything, she reserved the right to remain silent and continued flying towards Sapporo in a moderate pace, deep inside she already knew this was happening for the last three years.
"I give her my blood whenever hungry? otherwise she would just starve..."
"Since when…? when did it start?!" Yuki was getting more and more anxious.
"For the last three years since she awakened. Is that bad?" Ray mumbled while Anna sucked harder on that finger than ever before, she had been extremely hungry.
"Fufufu! Three years!?~ you can consider your daughter a goner" Hasshaku-sama jested, earning the glare from everyone -even Yasaka- as this was simply not a joking matter.
"No wonder… no wonder she went berserk like that".
"Ray-kun, you shouldn't have-" Sanae patted Ray's shoulder but Yuki shook his head.
"It's okay… perhaps there was no other choice. I was wondering why Anna-chan wasn't getting hungry for the last few years despite having awakened. For a moment, I thought she wouldn't experience the same hurdles, turns out… it is this".
"Can you all explain instead of mumbling?"
"Ray-sama… I haven't personally had it but I can tell your blood is an exquisite delicacy for any Youkai, much more so a glutinous Shinchu. If you have been giving Anna-chan your blood for the last three years, she won't be able to eat anything else for her whole life" The kitsune summarized.
"…" Ray gulped, there wasn't ambiguity in Yasaka's words.
"Her whole life?"
"Her whole life… I hardly doubt any Youkai has the mental fortitude to leave that addiction, let alone a Shinchu who can hardly control her urges. It is also the reason why I haven't sampled it, Ray-sama".
'Being addicted to your hands and m-milk is enough... if I get addicted to your blood as well...'
"In any case, If she doesn't get your blood when she needs it, she will go berserk... now I can sort of imagine what happened, while she was here in Hokkaido, Anna-chan got hungry and you all couldn't give her anything that could sate that hunger".
[This also explains why the Septem Diebus acknowledged her was even able to give her the energy she required to come back to life... I didn't think your blood would have this sort of effect. You have to be careful of who you give your blood from now on, Ray] Elysir added.
Anna was so engrossed in sucking his finger that she didn't even pay attention to what was being said. Ray regarded her cute form, she noticed she was looking and regarded back.
"Anna-chan…"
"H-Hmn?"
"Do you like me…?"
!!!
Her eyes fluttered before she nodded softly.
"I do…"
"I like you too".
!!!
She gasped with fully red cheeks, cutely trying to stop him from looking at her face, a pitiful task as even amidst her bashfulness she refused to let go of that finger.
"So you can have my blood as much as you want… for as long as you want… I don't mind" Ray caressed her cheeks, unaware he just spouted words that sounded like a marriage proposal.
Yuki and Sanae held each other's hand and sighed in relief, following suit with a bright smile. As for Hasshaku-sama, she smirked and merely noticed that the Kitsune's speed had slowed down drastically. Yasaka refused to comment on the matter but the ancient youkai knew better.
'Ray Lux... not only is he strong but to have Yasaka Okami on his finger like this, I should be careful around this boy... him being so hot and sexy... I can't let that sway my mind'.
