Yuahuatouri: A New Life Being a Legend

Chapter 732 - Wants to See Himself As a Decent Legend

"So that was pretty fun, huh?" Konomi chuckled to see Hinoka currently rubbing her reddened forehead as it received a powerful jolt from Koizumi.

"It would be more fun if my cousin could figure out the monster early." Hinoka sighed then she looked at Shinobu who was laughing a little.

"I told you not to talk about it that way again...! What if you were in my position?! You'll have a hard time believing it, won't you...!" Koizumi.

"You only have a soft side to Koneko while for me it's just a flick."

"Which soft side?! I didn't mean it that way.that doesn't mean I'm being nice to Koneko..." Koizumi looked the other way while crossing both arms.

"Fufufu... It turns out that you do love me ya~" Hinoka started hugging Koizumi from behind until she surprised herself.

"Let go!"

They all began to share the happiness they felt, Haruka and Kou could only see with a smile attached that children like them were still well awake about happiness.

Hopefully that childhood can continue to advance until they reach adolescence, continuing life as a Legend that will certainly face a sense of bitterness in a life that is so cruel in the era of the kingdom.

Ako's stomach started to sound, "... ...!!!"

Ako immediately hid behind Konomi until Hinoka realized she was hungry, "That is a sign...! Let's go to Shimatsu's restaurant!"

"We've planned that way, haven't we...?" Ask Konomi.

"Obviously, this stupid cousin of mine is forgetful." Koizumi walked out of the room to go outside, breathing fresh air so she could mend her sense of defeat again.

"Te-he~ Sorry-maaf~ if my stomach is empty then I can't think well." Hinoka patted her head slowly then they all left herself alone.

"Oi! Waitaminute! Don't leave me alone...!!!" Hinoka started following them all from behind but he saw Shinobu start picking up one journal that he wrote using feathers with ink.

Shinobu begins to write all the pleasant experiences with her friends and cousins, she writes them all in a diary while she also writes them in a life journal.

The game had taught him that trust could not last long enough that even a serious and decisive person would have a soft side.

"Break..." Shinobu smiled and closed her daily journal and took a life journal to bring to the restaurant because who knew she would find something worth writing about.

"What are you doing, Koneko~?" Hinoka started greeting Shinobu from behind so it jumped in shock like a cat being startled from behind.

"Eukkkk...!" Shinobu looked back and held her journal tightly because she did not show it before she finished the third volume.

"Hehehe~ I won't take it. Come on, we're eating a lot!" Hinoka extended her right arm to Shinobu.

"Mm...!" Shinobu nodded then she grabbed Hinoka's hand and followed him away towards the stairs that led them to the cabin room.

"Uwahho... Koneko is not ashamed anymore?!" Hinoka smiled broadly at the sight of her smallest cousin not feeling embarrassed and frightened again as she grabbed his hand.

"M..." Shinobu nodded then smiled so she saw Koizumi approaching.

"Hinoka, don't scare Koneko..." Koizumi could see that Hinoka had ill intentions to make Shinobu fear her return.

"No, it's just. Look!" Hinoka began to show Shinobu's hand that he managed to hold, just seeing it made Koizumi jealous so he immediately grabbed another Shinobu hand.

"What are you doing, Koizumi?! I've held her hand first, buuuu..."

"Your Koneko is my Koneko too. She's still my cousin, you should be able to share it!" Koizumi replied with a serious look.

"Koneko is--"

"Koneko us, period, or I'm a flick!" Koizumi showed her finger ready to flick Hinoka so she started laughing.

"Hahahaha~"

"Why are you laughing?"

"No~ It's fun enough to be able to spend time together like this huh." Hinoka looked at them all.

Koizumi could only remain silent when she heard Hinoka's words like that, most likely she started to remember the quite traumatized times since seeing Honoka filled with blood.

"Hinoka, are you going to try another challenge like ordering a spicy dish? If it's not wrong the restaurant held a discount." Konomi started talking to Hinoka.

"Ehh? Discount?" Haruka looked at Konomi with a confused look.

"Did Brother not know about the discount either...? If it's not wrong, if one is able to finish the five most spicy dishes then he can get a full meal card."

"Specialty who likes spicy dishes anyway, let alone someone once won but he never returned because he needed intestinal surgery and he spent hours in the toilet."

Konomi's words surprised them all, "Huh?! Such a challenge is quite dangerous."

"Grandfather thought about what the hell..." Koizumi.

"Well, wow, that sounds pretty interesting. Too bad, I don't like food so spicy." Haruka sighed.

"It's better to eat something balanced than an excessive sword, didn't you hear that...? Operation and toilet for hours...!" Kou said.

"I want to try it!!!" Hinoka brandished her arm until it shocked all of them.

"Heh?! You sure...?!" Koizumi was surprised to see Hinoka without hesitation to try the challenge.

"Hinoka. but you're still a child, your stomach definitely can't hold it." Kou said.

"I was born for this, trying all the spicy dishes that can make me satisfied...! Especially if I succeed then..."

"...all Shimatsu dishes can I buy!" Hinoka exclaimed with lips that stretched until she couldn't wait to try it.

"K-Sister Hinoka... will everything go well...? I don't want that gut---"

"Just calm~ I am a Legend who loves blast magic, that means the spicy taste is not far away with my explosion!"

"Trust me! Te-he~"

Koizumi put on a flat gaze, actually he wanted to follow the challenge but he was only more interested in fries even he had access to free food.

"Then, come on! Don't spend any longer!" Hinoka walked away from the cabin alone as she couldn't wait to try the spicy challenge.

"He was crazy about chili-related foods huh..." Konomi sighed.

"I'm a little kha-- felt uneasy if she wanted to endanger her life from now on by trying to damage her gut that." Koizumi said it with a slightly worried tone.

"You go first, we'll catch up." Haruka said so the children started nodding and walked away from the basement.

"Koneko.. wait a minute..." Kou tries to call Shinobu but her voice is so small and hoarse that it cannot be heard by her.

"Coneko!" Call Haruka who is trying to help Kou, luckily he is next to her and can hear her voice.

Shinobu and Koizumi stopped walking then they looked back, seeing Kou start taking Shinobu for a while to his room because he needed something to be able to leave safely.

Kou opens his closet and he takes a golden robe that can block his head and tail so that no Legend knows that Shinobu is one of the living Neko Legends.

"Koneko, wear this? Every time you come out, this robe will prevent you from any misunderstanding." Kou said.

"Mmmm!" Shinobu starts wearing the robe alone until she has trouble wearing it but Kou helps herself.

"Don't let you take it off in the face of a strange legend..." Kou stroked Shinobu's head and gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"mm! I'll go first, Mama..." Shinobu walks out of her room to follow Koizumi as she can tell the guard for her.

Haruka sees Shinobu who is wearing her robe going with her whole friend, "Era is getting destroyed huh. It feels like Minami's attempt to bring Neko Legend's name crumbled just like that."

"Yes.since Neko Island was destroyed, all Neko Legend rampaged to destroy whatever they saw, can be said they all no longer believe in Legend..."

"...and the Legend itself already considers myself with Koneko including Neko Legend also as a problem and an enemy, if only Shinobu was seen by some foreign Legend then he would get into trouble."

"Uhugh...!" Kou starts coughing until Haruka is worried for a moment, he does not go with them all because Kou needs time with him.

"Kou... You want to talk to me right? Do it now." Said Haruka who took a glass of drinking water for Kou.

"Ohh, about that..."

***

Shinobu who was walking with her friend and cousin had passed through the grave where they could see Hinoka kneeling before the tombstone that read Honoka.

"I thought he had arrived at the restaurant but it seemed... Hinoka never forgot a wish for her mother." The word of Konomi who began to enter the cemetery to meet the grave of Asriel.

"Koneko, would you like to visit your father?" Koizumi asked Shinobu because she herself wanted to pull out some dead plants in her own father's grave.

"Come..." Koizumi walked up to Shuan's grave to remove some of the dead plants and gave her the petals she found.

They all did the same for their fallen families, all expecting a lot to the fallen Legend to rest and enjoy a new life up there.

"All right, let's go." Koizumi said because she did not want them to feel the sadness of being lived by their parents who are very dear to them.

"Ahhhh~ Hungry~" Hinoka began to stretch both of his arms upwards.

"You really want to try that spicy food?" Ask Konomi.

"Of course. If you want to come too then let's do it together, it might feel more fun." Hinoka chuckled until they could only shut up.

"I might.. want to order sweets only.. salty and spicy food..." Ako.

"We are the same..." Shinobu looked at Ako with a small smile so she saw Ako answer her with a smile but she immediately hid behind Koizumi.

"I'm going to order fries, there's no need for such an excessive amount of food because we as women need to pay attention to that food pattern." Koizumi.

"I agree with Koizumi..." Konomi nodded.

There was the sound of a gust of wind so fast that their hair started to hit with the wind and then moved even the robe that Shinobu was wearing until it opened and fell down because the rope was loose.

"... ...!" Shinobu was surprised to see that even at the wrong time, there were some legends guarding the grave and giving flowers to each grave.

They all had a chance to see Shinobu who had golden hair with quite striking ears, just seeing it made them instantly panic and feel afraid.

""Ne-Neko Legend!!!""

***

"It seems. ever since the death of Shiratori Shuan, he hasn't carried away the curse."

Kou's words immediately made Haruka worry for a moment because she knew what he meant, "The plea made by Shuan only transferred the curse to herself."

"Since he fell, the curse or the Crimson disease will never be lost even you need to master it, just like Brother did."

Kou held tightly onto his collar, "I just want to be able to enjoy my last life to see Shinobu become a Legend..."

"..A legend that can protect himself so that he can keep himself from all the problems and dangers that try to interfere with him."

"I've been feeling sick.Even my illness will soon appear like fever and others." Kou lowered the collar of the shirt until Haruka was stunned when she saw such a huge Crimson emblem on her chest.

"I'll come back like that. ever since Big Brother was paralyzed, suffering from curses and illnesses until my life time was limited."

"But now the disease is getting worse in Shuan's body until it moves to me. I'm not sure it can last long..."

"...i'm definitely going to die."
