Reincarnated in sekirei

Chapter 224: CH.221: Omamori.



( Yuuki's POV )

The next day, after helping Shera form a pact with her summoned creature, she bombarded me with questions like how to take care of it or what she should feed it, while we were doing chores around the temple.

Other than that, this was a pretty normal day, but for some reason, Lucoa had been pouting at me for a while now, I was tempted to just ignore her, but maybe that would only make things worse.

Yuuki: What's wrong now?

Lucoa: Uhm, you two suddenly seem really close, that's not fair.

Yuuki: I don't know what you're talking about, stop imagining things.

I don't know why she was suddenly saying that but she seemed not to believe me because she moved closer to me while we were working, I let her do whatever she wanted until she stuck to me and let her breasts rest on my head, I was going to push her aside but I got distracted when I felt a presence at the entrance of the temple.

These presences were of normal people, in other words, our first visitors, I left Lucoa behind to check on that, and as I approached those people, I frowned in annoyance.

They were a group of teenagers who were trying to spy on the temple, more specifically on Lucoa.

Yuuki: Can I help you with something?

Teenager 1: ugh, Get out of the way, brat.

Teenager 2: Hey, don't be rude, hey kiddo, we didn't know there was a temple here we were just curious.

Yuuki: If you don't have business here then leave.

Teenager 2: Wow little guy, don't you think that's a bit rude?

Yuuki: No, make an offering or something, or get out.

For obvious reasons, I wasn't projecting much intimidation to the group of young people, so I called Grimm to help me, he grew to an intimidating size, and with a growl, he forced the youngsters to make a hasty retreat, perhaps an overreaction on my part but then again it's not like we needed visitors.

Having taken care of that matter, I put on a small smile and turned around, at that moment, Lucoa picked me up and began to hug me tightly.

Lucoa: aww Little Yuuki you got jealous, that's cute~

Yuuki: You're imagining things again.

I tried to push Lucoa away, but she used all her strength to grab me, I could have teleported away, but at this point, it was better to wait for her to have her fill.

Unexpectedly, before that could happen, one of the young men I had chased returned to the temple.

Yuuki: Hey, didn't you hear what I said before?

Teenager 3: No! I have a reason, I wanted to buy an amulet.

With Grimm still nearby, the young man tried to explain his return quickly, I could see that he was telling the truth, so I calmed him down with a wave of my hand.

Yuuki: ...ok, Lucoa, put me down.

Lucoa: umm? What was that?~

Yuuki: fine, you take me to the temple.

Lucoa: OK~

/////////////////////////

There were many things abandoned in the temple that we kept in a large box, there I found a forgotten amulet and when it was in my hand an idea came to my head, Gods can give blessings to people and objects and since I'm part god I should be able to do the same even more so than before after defeating a real god.

With the amulet in one hand, I pointed my finger at it and closed my eyes to concentrate.

Lucoa: What are you doing?

Yuuki: Experiment, I'm trying to put some divine favor into this amulet.

Lucoa: OK~

My concentration was not broken even with Lucoa's interruption, and after a few seconds, a small golden light came out of my finger and entered the amulet, I don't know what effect this will have, but it couldn't be a bad thing.

When I finished that Lucoa walked back to the entrance, then I threw the amulet to the young man, I didn't ask for money and I just told him to go away, with that I returned home early to attend to other matters.

/////////////////////////

When I teleported home, I brought with me the ingredients that I asked Lucoa to buy the day before, Añas a thank you for what the Nagumo family had done for me, I decided to bake a cake for them, and after starting, Hajime was quick to come down from his room.

Hajime: Hey what are you doing?

Yuuki: Baking, do you like sweet things?

Hajime: I guess so.

Yuuki: Well, after today, you're going to love them.

I also didn't forget to prepare something for Shera and Lucoa, I left two cakes ready, and when Hajime's parents arrived, I put the cake in the dining room for them.

Sumire: Yuuki-kun, where did you buy this?

Yuuki: I didn't buy it, I made it, Hajime can confirm, please try it.

The cake looked amazing but they were a bit hesitant to eat it, understandably, It's not very common for an eight year old to be able to bake like I do but when they took a bite they were delighted by the taste, so much so that it took them a few moments to come out of the trance.

Shuu: This is very good, you have a real talent.

Sumire: Very good? This is incredible, where did you learn to do something like this.

Yuuki: Just a hobby of mine, I wanted to thank you for letting me stay here.

Sumire: We appreciate that but we like having you with us, you don't need to pay us back, I hope that someday you can feel truly comfortable with us.

I could see the honesty in his words so I decided to respond, there was a lot I had to keep hidden, but I could at least say this.

Yuuki: I really like this place, almost like my real home, I want to show that in some way.

Sumire: Oh Yuuki-kun.

After telling her how I felt Sumire hugged me tight as only a mother could, and when she let go the four of us sat together and enjoyed the rest of the cake.

//////////////////////

The next day during recess, as usual I teleported to the temple with the second cake I had made.

I left before they started eating and when I reappeared on the school roof my instinct told me that something was wrong, not like I was in danger but like something bad was about to happen or maybe it was specific to say annoying.
