Reincarnated in sekirei

Chapter 227: CH.224: temporary allies.



( Yuuki's POV )

After talking to Erica and the others, I formed a clearer picture of the group their families had created, Their descendants formed two groups that formed a large organization, the Black Copper Cross and the Black Bronze Cross, they both form the Order of the Cross.

They have small bases around the world in all the places where portals have opened, that's why they are here now, while Mythra and the others have been watching them they have had no contact with another world traveler, which was in line with what Erica told me, but I don't know if they know all the secrets of their organization, but now is a good time for a direct conversation with one of the leaders of the order, So the next day when we left school Claire, Liliana, Hajime, Erica and I got into the car that picked up the girls every day.

Hajime: Hey what are we doing here?

Yuuki: We're just making new friends.

Hajime: But you don't make friends.

Yuuki: Hey that's rude.

Erica: jeje But it's true, it was difficult to approach you, I hope we get along well from now on, you too Hajime.

Yuuki: We'll see.

We arrived at the mansion that was Erica's home, and we were greeted by maids, and butlers, I was already used to this environment, but Hajime got a little nervous.

When we entered, we spent some time like normal children hanging out at a friend's house, only with more expensive snacks, In the middle of that, I sneaked away and let the girls distract Hajime, there's also another thing I asked them to do but more on that later.

I followed the directions that Erica had given me a few moments before, I avoided the servants and I arrived at her father's office, I walked in casually and saw a middle-aged man of solid build, he had his head buried in his desk, but when I walked in, he immediately looked up.

???: Who are you?

Yuuki: A friend of Erica's but I'm not here for that.

Erica's father had a serious expression, but when I summoned Thanatos, and Rhym, he jumped out of his chair and looked ready to fight, a good reaction, but at that moment, I threw my hands in surrender.

Yuuki: Please relax, I came to talk, as I said, I am Erica's friend, I am not going to attack her father in his own home.

???: You could have fooled me.

Yuuki: That was just so you would take me seriously, the conversation will go faster that way.

???: And what is that conversation?

Yuuki: About the work we do, you protect this world from monsters from other worlds and I protect multiple worlds from something much more dangerous.

Erica's father returned to his seat and took on an even more serious attitude, resting his elbows on his desk and clasping his hands together like a villain would do.

???: I want to hear what you have to say.

Yuuki: Perfect.

I asked him similar questions to those I asked Erica and after confirming with my mystical eyes that he was telling the truth, I told him about my knowledge of other worlds, travel between them, and the dangerous world travelers who jump between them.

In the end, he decided to cooperate with me at least until I was reunited with my family, after which we could talk about a more lasting alliance.

With official business out of the way I returned to Hajime and the others, I had asked the girls to tell him what I had told them the other day, I was still going to need Hajime's support and if Erica and the others knew who I was, he deserved to know too, Upon returning to the room Hajime was confused with what the girls told him but it only took a small demonstration of magic for him to become a believer.

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

A few weeks later the temple suddenly became more crowded, this was because the student who had gotten an amulet had done a lot of promotion for the place, The reason he needed an amulet was to give himself courage and confess to the girl he liked, that was a complete success and he spread the word with everyone he could, doon other people came to buy amulets and make offerings for luck in studies and health, things like that, the results were always positive and this place ended up being very popular, so much so that we had to hire a couple of helpers.

Mitras Shera and Lucoa were in charge of that, I was fulfilling a commission from the order of the cross, after ten generations of living in a world without magic, there was almost no magic left within them, and because of that they depended on rituals, artifacts and old enchanted weapons to fulfill their duties, but those things also lost effectiveness over time so they used modern technology to make up for that deficiency.

With my skills, I was restoring those artifacts and enchanted weapons to their former glory and also improving the technology they were using, I was trying to concentrate, but it was kind of hard when Erica was breathing down my neck.

Erica: Hey, hasn't any portal opened yet?

Yuuki: No, I already told you that's not something that happens every week.

I told Erica's father that I could sense when a portal was about to open and that I could create a machine that would do the same thing, and when Erica heard that she started coming to the temple every day waiting for news of a new one.

Yuuki: Also, wouldn't it be better if no portal opened again, you know, for safety?

Erica: That was before you appeared, you have a promise to keep~

Yuuki: yeah yeah.

*Beep-beep* *Beep-beep*

I tried to go back to my work, but at that moment, I felt a disturbance in the air, and one of the devices in the room made a loud beeping sound.

Erica: What is that?

Yuuki: it's What you were waiting for.

Erica: excellent~
