Realizer of Death : The Reaper

After they finished their lunch and their stomachs were full, Kohana and the others took a tour around lake Motosu. The three enjoy the scenery, take photos together, and fish by the lake. They seemed to be having much fun there, especially the little girl.

Kohana is satisfied because she can spend her vacation with the two people she cares about the most, after her parents. Even though she hasn't known Tenku for long, Kohana feels very close to him and believes he is a good person.

Most importantly, Tenku had saved her life, and he looked cool to her. He was the right person to accompany her older sister. That way, Kohana can meet Tenku more often.

"Big brother! Big sister! What were you two doing in that place!? Please help me catch this butterfly!?" Kohana shouted at Tenku and Setsuka. The two sat by the lake, watching her play with the butterflies around her.

"Okay. I'll be there now." Tenku replied and then looked at Setsuka.

"I'll go accompany Kohana to play."

"Yes. But please don't spoil the little girl too much. I'm sorry if she troubled you." Setsuka said apologetically.

"You don't need to worry about that. I enjoy playing with her." Tenku smiled and left Setsuka in that place alone. He walked over to the little girl with a small net in his hand and helped her catch the butterflies.

On the other hand, Setsuka rested her chin on her hands and watched them play together with a warm smile. She secretly captured the moment they were catching butterflies.

Setsuka took photos of Kohana when she fell from running, when she screamed in annoyance because the butterfly she caught flew away, and when Tenku carried her on his shoulders. The more Setsuka saw them together, the wider the smile on her face. But a voice interrupted her while she was enjoying the heartwarming sight.

"Excuse me, are you alone in this place? May I join you?" A man spoke to Setsuka.

His name is Ichiro Noguchi. He was in his twenties and had a very handsome face. In addition, his body is tall and athletic. Ichiro is a League of Heroes Organization member and works as an actor. If he hadn't been wearing glasses and a hat to disguise his appearance, Lake Motosu would have gone into an uproar, and people would have gathered around him to take photos and ask for autographs. Based on that, Ichiro had the confidence to speak with Setsuka.

"No. I'm with my boyfriend here. Please go and do not disturb me." Setsuka replied indifferently without even looking at him. She forgot that she had removed her mask and made the men around her mesmerized by her beauty. They held back because they didn't have the confidence to approach her, and only Ichiro dared to do so.

"Your boyfriend? Where? I didn't see anyone with you?" Ichiro was not angry after hearing Setsuka's answer and instead smiled. He had seen many beautiful girls but none as stunning as Setsuka.

"Are you deaf? I already said that I don't want to be disturbed. So get away from me now before I use force to drive you away." Setsuka looked at Noguchi and said.

Ichiro's face sank when he heard Setsuka's threat. This was the first time a woman had spoken to him like that. Usually, the women would kneel to him when he talked to them. After that, they would have a romantic relationship, and he would leave them after he got bored.

He had to admit that Setsuka was very attractive, far prettier than any of the women he had ever met. Ichiro wanted to have her all to himself and held her all night. But if he knew that Setsuka was the daughter of the current head of Fuyushima Temple, he wouldn't dare to think about that.

"Don't you know who I am? I am a Moon phase Realizer from League of Heroes. Besides that, I'm also a famous actor." Ichiro said in irritation and explained his identity to Setsuka. He could no longer keep his composure after hearing she would chase him away using force.

Ichiro is a potential young Realizer, and Setsuka's words hurt his pride. He had hoped the girl would be frightened after knowing his identity and would kneel before him to beg for his forgiveness. Unfortunately, Setsuka's response was the opposite of what he had imagined.

"So what? Get out of here now before my patience runs out." Setsuka said coldly, and the temperature around the place dropped drastically. She is fearless even though her phase is below him because she has Fuyushima Temple behind her. Besides, she couldn't show weakness in front of such a man.

"You!" Ichiro was angry and intended to manifest his Phantasmal Object. But before he could do so, a voice stopped him.

"What is going on here?" Tenku came closer to them and asked. Even though he was playing with Kohana quite far from Setsuka's location, he could sense anything happening around him using the divine consciousness he released. It was called a spiritual sense, and Tenku acquired it after he practiced the Spiritual Lord Heart Sutra on the Pool stage.

Tenku left Kohana for a while after noticing a handsome boy approaching Setsuka. He didn't need to guess why the man bothered her after seeing that the girl wasn't wearing her mask.

"Who are you? Don't meddle in my business, or you'll regret it!" Ichiro glared at Tenku and said in a threatening voice.

He was slightly surprised because he didn't notice Tenku when he appeared near him and thought the boy was not ordinary. But Ichiro quickly dismissed those thoughts after seeing Tenku's appearance and the aura he was giving off. He knew the boy before him was a Realizer but a low-level one.

"I came with her. Of course, I will interfere in this matter. So what do you want from her?" Tenku asked and stood between Setsuka and Ichiro.

"Ooh, so you are the boyfriend that girl mentioned before?" Ichiro's face darkened after he heard his answer. If his hunch was correct, then Tenku was Setsuka's boyfriend.

Ichiro looked at Tenku from head to toe and was convinced that he was much better in every way than the boy. He clenched his fists tightly as he remembered Setsuka wanted to chase him away for Tenku's sake.

"Boyfriend?" Tenku was confused by Ichiro's words and looked to Setsuka for an explanation, but the other party quickly looked away from him and refused to meet his eyes. When he saw Setsuka's blushing face, Tenku quickly noticed that the girl was using him to chase Ichiro away.

(I know that beauties will bring you trouble)

Tenku sighed in his heart and returned his eyes to Ichiro.

"Yes, I am her boyfriend, and we are on vacation now. So please leave this place and don't bother my girlfriend anymore." Tenku casually said. Setsuka's face turned even redder after hearing his statement, which made Ichiro burn with jealousy. After all, he had already assumed that Setsuka was his.

"If I want to stay here, what do you want to do?" Ichiro walked slowly toward Tenku and provoked him.

"You!" Setsuka was angered by his words and wanted to retort, but Tenku raised his hand to stop her. Setsuka obeyed and did not continue her words.

"You look strong. So I won't be able to win if I have to fight against you. But are you sure you want to make a scene here? You must know that nowadays a lot of people visit Lake Motosu. One of them might be a member of your organization.

They will surely report you for abusing your powers to fight with members of other organizations, and you will be punished. Besides, your image as an actor will be ruined when the media finds out you are trying to grab another man's lover by using violence." Tenku answered calmly.

Ichiro's expression sank when he heard that. He released his aura and suppressed Tenku because he felt the boy threatening him with his word. Ichiro smiled broadly, thinking that Tenku would kneel, which would embarrass him in front of Setsuka. But then his face stiffened when he saw Tenku standing quietly, unaffected by his aura.

(No way! This brat is just a low-level Realizer! He must have used a trick to withstand my coercion. Then, I'll increase the intensity!)

Ichiro gritted his teeth and intended to put more pressure on Tenku. But before he could do so, he suddenly felt a thick killing intent and instantly forced him to his knees.

"Ugh! Who!? Who would dare to interfere with my business!?" Ichiro looked around but found no one.

His voice made those nearby turn their attention to him. Ichiro didn't think that Tenku was the one who had forced him to his knees because that boy was a low-level Realizer. Thus, he suspects that someone is secretly helping Tenku. On the other hand, Setsuka was not surprised when she saw that because she knew Tenku's true strength.

"Leave this place now. If you insist on staying here and bothering us, then you will experience something even more embarrassing than this." Tenku looked directly into Ichiro's eyes and said indifferently.

Ichiro looked around and knew he couldn't stay in that place any longer as it would become a commotion. Someone might recognize him, and it would be a scandal for him.

"I will remember about this! I will return what you have done to me many times more terribly. I don't know who is protecting you secretly. But you two will surely receive my revenge!" Ichiro looked at Tenku hatefully and quickly left the place. Tenku sighed and shook his head after Ichiro's figure disappeared from his sight.

"I'm sorry for dragging you into this matter." Setsuka approached him slowly and said in a low voice. She shouldn't have said Tenku was her boyfriend because that would have turned Ichiro's anger towards him.

"You don't need to think about that. As the only man among us, I should have protected you. Even though I'm weak, I can still be relied upon in certain situations." Tenku looked at Setsuka and smiled slightly. His words were purely from his heart and not to comfort the girl.

"Thank You." Setsuka sighed in relief after hearing his reply. Then her face blushed after remembering that Tenku had called her girlfriend in front of Ichiro. Even though it was just a lie to drive the man away, it still made her heart flutter.

"By the way, what do you want to do next?" Tenku asked.

"Hmm... I think I'll let Kohana play here a bit longer, and we'll go home in the evening. Why do you ask that?" Setsuka asked in return.

"That's good. Then, please take care of Kohana for a while. There's something I have to do now." Tenku said to Setsuka, and his eyes stared in a certain direction in Motosu's lake. It's time for him to exterminate the pests.
