"Six hundred.. ninety-seven..." Said Koizumi who tried to collect breath while doing a pull-up of 697, three more then he will set a new record.
His body was hard filled with sweat even he had just finished carrying out a rebellion mission that was continued with training so that he could continue to grow stronger again and again.
"Six..hundred... nine..." Koizumi's two arms trembled as she could not withstand the other loads but she forced him to set a new record of 700.
With the load he carried like a bag behind him, "Koizumi, are you inside?"
"Y-Yeah..." Koizumi removed the iron above the training room and threw her bag until it cracked the floor because the load contained inside was quite large.
Haruka opened the door of the training room and she was surprised by Koizumi who was so wet from sweat, her clothes even translucent to show her clear skin.
"Once again you force yourself to do such a difficult exercise..." Haruka crossed both arms, seeing Koizumi continue the exercise by doing sit-ups.
"Already, use the time off to shower, eat, and dress to be able to play with Hinoka." Haruka started to clap her hands a few times.
"Just let me step on the number 100 just do-" Koizumi widened her eyes when she saw Haruka put on such a frightening look.
"Ugh, okay..." Koizumi rose up with a sore body, he immediately warmed up to disappear all the achy feeling.
"Hinoka's coming?" Koizumi asked who could feel her existence so clearly that Haruka smiled proudly that she could already feel the existence of someone at the age of five.
"True, before that dry all that sweat that keeps flowing.You should also be able to behave more like a girl and care about your body that will grow as beautiful as Mama." Haruka throws a towel at Koizumi.
Koizumi caught it and wiped all the sweat that was falling, took a hairband to tie her long hair so she could feel a little cool.
"Aren't you going to cut your hair short?" Haruka asked as she stroked her long hair.
"I don't want to be so comfortable having short hair, at least Mama also lengthen the hair even longer." Koizumi looked at Haruka while taking a glass of water.
"Mama is trying, hehehe.. anyways the characteristic of a mother has long hair, right?" Ask Haruka.
"Grandma Korrina has short hair."
"Uhh... Why do you have to compare grandma to me?" Haruka puffed her cheeks.
"Just... it feels quite rare to know Mama wants to lengthen her hair, is it possible to be envious of this?" Koizumi touched her long hair.
"Ugh.. that's right. somehow you look so matched with long hair like that, it feels like Mama gave birth to an angel."
"Mother gave birth to the goddess of death half an angel." Koizumi dries her head with Haruka's startling remark that her daughter is indeed thick as Rokuro.
"Wanna take a shower?" Ask Haruka.
"Yes.it's so sultry." Koizumi undressed without thinking twice because there was no man in her house except for Hinoka and Haruka.
"You made Hinoka wait a long time..."
"I know, please make him tea or milk to keep him in the same position." Koizumi dries up the sweat and walks to the bathroom, but Haruka appears before her.
"Look yeah..."
"mm?"
"Koizumi, do you remember what Mama said since then?" Haruka asked as she clasped her arms together.
Koizumi recalled clearly all the warnings and explanations, "I have to take care of Hinoka and Koneko..."
"Hinoka and Koneko still can't fight because no one can guide them well..."
"...even I myself feel unfortunate with Hinoka who has been dated by Aunt even Koneko who has to live with the help of technology so that he can fight and do something like an ordinary Legend."
Koizumi put on an annoyed look and clenched her fists, "Almost all Legends regard Koneko as a monster that can threaten at any time..."
"...all of it happened because of the incident of destruction from Neko Isle until all the Legends grew blind." Koizumi said with an enlarged tone of voice because she had seen Koneko almost often thrown stones.
"Have your mind calmed down if your body receives all the pressure and fatigue you face when you practice." Haruka stroked Koizumi's head.
Koizumi let out a slow sigh and went to the bathroom to take a bath and dressed to meet Hinoka who was waiting for her.
Koizumi widened her eyes when she saw Hinoka looking at the family photo until her vision was distracted by her cousin's naked body until it was filled with sweat that continued to flow.
"Oh shit..." Koizumi saw Hinoka smiling broadly at herself.
"Koi~ Zumi~" Hinoka began to move closer to Koizumi while extending out both of her arms.
"Sway...! Do you not have the shame to approach your cousin who is naked and covered in sweat...!?" Koizumi began to panic seeing Hinoka not stop moving.
"It's okay~ I really like the smell of your sweat that..."
"Crazy...!" Koizumi stopped for five seconds and fled into the bathroom to hide inside.
Hinoka who was trying to hug Koizumi instead hit the wall until Haruka saw him then she held back her laughter that he was really similar to Honoka when trying to hug Kou.
"So it was almost. If he hugged me then it would be terrible..." Koizumi touched her fast-beating chest because it was a life-and-death situation for her.
Koizumi sighed softly and then filled the bathtub with cold water, at least she could enjoy her rest time by sleeping in the tub while forgetting the mission that happened before.
It felt so difficult that he had soiled his arms with blood, that there was no choice but to pay for all the blindness and injustice with blood and life.
Koizumi went into the bath and breathed a breath so relieved, her body felt so calm that she felt a calm feeling due to the cold water.
"... ..." Koizumi began to stare at the self-reflection of the water so clear that she could see herself.
"Mom..."
***
"Koi~ Zumi~ Koizumi! Koizumi!" Hinoka started patting Koizumi on the back doing push-ups, she immediately got up and looked at herself with an annoyed look.
"What...? Huh...?"
"Let's play~ instead of feeling boring to do exercises on holidays?! Even you still haven't rested...!"
"Bright... All right, what do you want? Where's Koneko?" Koizumi asked who saw Koneko creating a sand fort using her right arm to form a bucket.
"In a moment, if it's not wrong to step on Halloween-" Koizumi was surprised to see Hinoka's expression that initially looked so cheerful turned gloomy.
His eyes seemed dead until he forgot something important that his cousin had a traumatic memory of Honoka until he said Halloween would arouse that trauma.
Honoka once said that she looked fine with blood without limbs until she finally said she was carrying out the Halloween near.
Since then Hinoka had a fear when he saw blood, once he saw it he would look moody so Koizumi hugged his cousin who felt the trauma.
"I'm sorry, Hinoka, I didn't mean it." Koizumi stroked Hinoka's head and gave her a kiss on the cheek until she regained consciousness.
"mm! So then... What are we going to play now...?!" Ask Hinoka.
"Yes, that..." Koizumi felt awkward at once because she needed to choose the right word so as not to reawaken her trauma.
"Train it."
"Hehhhhh..."
"Dull what?! Are you a legend or what?!"
***
Koizumi chuckled softly, "Hinoka still doesn't seem to bring up the sense to fight as a Legend nation..."
"...whatever happens, at least as Big Brother's figure to him being older, I should be able to help him fight the fear of blood."
Koizumi began rubbing her body with soap and remembered her smallest cousin, full of passion to fight to fulfill her hobby and goals.
"My little cousin... Koneko."
"The mouth without arms, legs, and eyes certainly sounds quite miserable.he himself is even considered a monster and a troublemaker for some Legends..."
"...i seem to have a safe and quiet life, unlike those who have faced many things. Still, I miss Dad who always sees my progress." Koizumi closed her eyes and looked up at the sky.
"Am I able to take care of my two cousins properly and correctly...? Train them as well in order to fight and protect themselves..."
"...I almost every day saw Koneko injured by being hit by a stone throw, his body scuffed even his forehead once bled." Koizumi clenched her fists hard.
"If it happens again to my two cousins that I have to take care of, I will kill them!" Koizumi smashed into the water with an annoyed expression.
"Hahhh.. After this, I have to play with Hinoka." Koizumi felt a little lazy because he wanted to continue his training.
"But it's not that I don't want to play with him..."
"...at least it's my job as a figure brother to them, yes, it's true..."
"Aren't you going to play with me? I'm lonely~"
"Hmph, don't get me wrong. I don't want to but have to-" Koizumi widened her eyes when she heard Hinoka's voice next to her chuckling.
Koizumi turned to the side and saw Hinoka standing with her naked body ready to be with her cousin as she herself ran away from home just to enjoy the bath together.
"Hinoka!? What are you doing here...!?"
"Ummm.. I want to take a shower with you! Can't it be...? Oh, yeah!" Hinoka jumped into the bathtub until the splash hit Koizumi's face.
"Oi! I haven't looked after you and you're in...!" Koizumi put on an annoyed look with slightly flushed cheeks, most likely Hinoka heard her words earlier.
"Koi~ Zumi~" Hinoka began to hug Koizumi tightly.
"Stay away from me!!! It's...!" Koizumi stopped the time to take off the blow and got out of the bath to get away from Hinoka who was trying to greet her with a kiss.
"Hehhhh. You stop time again, no exclamation, buuuu..." Hinoka puffed her cheeks until she made Koizumi crush the bar soap she was holding.
"What does it mean not exciting...!? We want to reach a big age...! You can't kiss a girl on the lips...!"
"Hehhhh...! But we're cousins, of course, have a blood relationship too, what's wrong with a welcome kiss anyway? That's an interesting characteristic...!" Hinoka got up and moved both sites.
"Aren't you going to kiss me again...? Koizumi...?" Hinoka asked with a clear expression.
"I didn't mean it that way.not that I didn't want to but. The welcome kiss in the bathroom felt--"
"Then, here~ here~"
Koizumi threw the bar soap that hit Hinoka's forehead until she fell in the tub, "Whisper...!"
"...quick out!"
