Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1728 Not Again!

　　"This..." Kentucky was expecting to have the Divine Sense in the feather come along with him. He could make good use of its knowledge, after all. For example, sharing some innate skills Minokawas would have and things like that. "So, as long as you stay on this island, you won't disappear, right?"

　　'No,' the feather answered. 'I will only continue existing for three more years at most. The reason I lasted this far was that the Divine Sense and the piece of sentience inside it were both dormant, waiting for you. Now that I've awakened, time started to move for me again. Don't worry. This is just a Divine Sense technique. There's no need to care about it disappearing. You might as well think of me and this feather as a puppet of sorts.'

　　Kentucky's next plan fell apart straight away. He was planning to bring the twins here instead. However, the sentience in the feather obviously wouldn't last long enough. But then again, Kentucky could simply listen to the instructions and head back with the feather to the Jhiod Continent, just like Ume mentioned.

　　However, Kentucky felt like he shouldn't do it. "Sigh... so annoying. I'm not supposed to have any feelings towards you and that mommy of mine. However, the feeling of you disappearing like that doesn't sit well with me. The fact you don't care about it bothers me even more."

　　'Meh.' Ume didn't seem to pay much attention to that. 'You'll get used to it. Besides, I might still be alive, remember? Anyway, let me pass you the method to absorb the blood in my quill.'

　　However, before he could do that, Kentucky used his Divine Soul Power to grab the blood in the feather's quill. "No need. You can explain everything to me while I start absorbing it."Follow current novelenglish.net . s on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

　　'Eh? Weren't you the one who told me that you wouldn't believe me?' the feather asked back.

　　Kentucky shrugged his shoulders, saying, "Thanks to a certain demon, I'm quite confident in my ability to see through lies. For now, I believe that you aren't trying to deceive me."

　　'So you really miss daddy, don't you? Hahaha!' The feather couldn't help but laugh after hearing that.

　　"Fuck you! Who the hell misses anyone? This grandfather is doing pretty well alone, thank you. However, I'll try to take as much information from you as possible, so you better hold in there during these next few years." Kentucky would never admit such a thing. Well, it would be a lie if Kentucky said he was concerned about the feather. It just didn't feel right to have the Divine Sense and the sentience inside it be wiped as a side-effect of bringing the feather away. Kentucky's relationship with his father hasn't grown to that point yet, after all.

　　'Alright, alright.' Ume was obviously happy to hear that, as little as that move might mean in the grand scheme of things. 'Then let me help you.'

　　*Swish!*

　　Suddenly, Kentucky felt a huge pain come from his chest. Before he could do anything, an enormous cut, deep enough to reach the outside of his heart, appeared there.

　　*Arrrgh!*

　　"What are you doing?!"

　　'What are you screaming for? Aren't you a male? It's just a small cut.' The feather didn't seem too concerned. 'Now then, let's continue.'

　　The power of space gathered around Kentucky, not allowing him to move at all. Similar to what he saw Libraia doing, the space that the feather controlled was full of natural runes. It's just that Ume's ones were a lot brighter and seemed much more powerful. Following that, Kentucky saw how Light and Dark Elements took the form of a needle right in front of his open chest. 'I'm going to open a small hole in your heart and send my blood inside. It might be a little uncomfortable but hold in there.'

　　"Fuck!"

　　*Puchi!*

　　Blood began to fall like a fountain as Kentucky's heart tried to beat. 'Well, that's not very nice. In any case, it only took a second. The feather controlled the elements and space power to force all the blood that gushed out back inside. 'We can't waste your blood, right? Your mother would kill me if she found out.'

　　After that, the blood of the quill that was already floating in the air was sent into Kentucky's body through that hole in his heart. 

　　The thing that impressed Kentucky the most was that Ume wasn't using even a hint of Divine Energy. No, it's not that he wasn't using Divine Energy. It's just that he couldn't. The feather only had enough Divine Energy in it to sustain the Divine Sense and the sentience inside. It couldn't use Divine Energy even if it wanted to. 

　　Amidst his pain, Kentucky felt more reassured. 'Well, since he could have done it from the start, I guess he really wasn't lying. I'm basically defenseless in front of this power. But still... fuck, it hurts like hell!'

　　Ume finished sending all the blood inside Kentucky's heart. 'Alright, focus your Divine Energy on your injuries. Although I pierced your heart, it's just a small hole. At your cultivation level, it shouldn't be a fatal injury. I will hold your blood until you can close it.'

　　"There's no need. Just let me go," Kentucky answered.

　　'Oh! You can deal with it alone? Very well.' Immediately, the feather stopped using its powers to hold Kentucky in place. However, although it seemed nonchalant, the fact was that it was ready to intervene if Kentucky couldn't deal with the injury.

　　Yet, it was finally shocked for the first time once it saw what Kentucky did.

　　'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'

　　In front of its Divine Sense, Kentucky's injury, both in his chest and his heart, began to close up at fast speeds. Ume had never seen Light Element be used like that. 'This... how did you do that?'

　　Seeing that the wound was closed up, Kentucky felt relieved. "A certain idiot created this skill, and I got used to using it. It's very convenient."

　　'Con...venient? That's overpowered as hell! What's the name of the person who created it?'

　　*Dum-dum...*

　　*Arrgh!*

　　However, Kentucky didn't have time to answer that. That's because his father's blood began to act up in his body. "Fuck, not again!"
