The Sekirei’s Covenant

Sekirei are a peculiar existence. Similarly, Ashikabi are also a peculiar existence.

Not all humans can become Ashikabi . Only humans who possess something called "Unique Gene" within their bodies can become Ashikabi , awaken the Sekirei, and unlock the hidden power within them.

Many people believe that Ashikabi are incompetent beings. Compared to the Sekirei who possess powerful combat abilities, they are just ordinary humans, which greatly limits the development of the Sekirei.

However, the truth is not so simple.

Ashikabi , through Unique Gene, awaken the Sekirei, and at the same time connect themselves with the Sekirei, and connect their own Sekirei with each other, forming a whole.

At the same time, Ashikabi have a very special and heaven-defying ability:

Ability Sharing!

That is to say, if an Ashikabi awakens a Sekirei, then he can also possess the abilities of that Sekirei!

Just like the lightning power that appeared on Sora's body before, it was the ability he gained after awakening Hikari and Hibiki!

This is an ability that every Ashikabi possesses, but in fact, apart from Sora, no other Ashikabi can use these abilities.

The reason is simple: they only possess the abilities of their Sekirei, but they don't have the power to activate those abilities, which is the Sekirei power.

It's like giving you a gun and bullets, but the bullets don't have gunpowder. It's as good as nothing!

When Sora discovered this special ability of the Ashikabi , he was very excited. According to this situation, the more Sekirei he awakened, the more abilities he would possess. When several, dozens, or even hundreds of abilities appeared on one person at the same time, the scene was exciting just to think about!

Moreover, with these abilities, his combat power would undoubtedly increase greatly, which would add a lot of winning weight to the inevitable battle of fate in the future.

As for the lightning clone that Sora used before, it was naturally not an ability from the Sekirei. This move was something he learned from humans themselves.

Once, when he traveled the world with his three Sekirei to cultivate, they discovered an ancient site deep in the mountains of Hokkaido, Japan. That site actually contained records of the cultivation methods of ancient ninjas, such as how to extract chakra and how to release ninjutsu!

In that site, there was also a record of a theoretically possible ninjutsu - the "Clone Technique." According to what it said, as long as you had a strong enough mental power, you could materialize chakra and control it, and theoretically create a clone.

The reason it was said to be theoretical was because no one had ever practiced it. Human mental power is innate, and even if you can increase mental power through meditation and other methods, the effect is minimal. To perform a clone, you need at least twice the mental power of an average person!

Such powerful mental power is basically impossible to exist in humans, so the Clone Technique has always been just a hypothesis. But Sora is different. Kochou is a mental-type Sekirei, and although her mental power is not as good as Glasses-chan, it is far beyond ordinary people. Sora naturally possessed the same powerful mental power as her after awakening Kochou.

Therefore, with the joint support of Sekirei power and mental power, he successfully turned the theoretical existence of the clone into a possibility!

Sora suddenly using a clone in the middle of the night was naturally not to show off, nor was he going crazy. It was because he suddenly received information from Kochou.

The information Kochou sent was not using modern technology, but direct telepathic communication.

This is not a special ability of the Ashikabi . The reason why Sora can communicate telepathically with his awakened Sekirei is thanks to the golden Sekirei pattern on the back of his neck.

The golden Sekirei pattern had disappeared because its energy was exhausted, but Sora always had a feeling that it still existed. Sure enough, later, with continuous cultivation, the Sekirei power accumulated in his body became more and more, and the golden Sekirei pattern reappeared.

However, the current Sekirei pattern is still relatively faint. Sora guessed that it was because his strength was not strong enough. When his strength became awesome one day, it should be able to restore that golden, shining appearance.

As for the function of this golden Sekirei pattern, apart from being able to communicate telepathically with his Sekirei, he really hasn't discovered anything else. Sora isn't greedy. Just this one thing is good enough. It's convenient and saves a lot of phone bills.

Uh, of course, although Sora doesn't lack money now, MBI still has half of his shares, but people, being able to pick up some small advantages is also quite happy.

…

Under the night sky, Sora's clone turned into afterimages, constantly traversing and flashing in the sky above the city of Teito, until it landed on a high platform and stopped.

"Rai! Rai! Rai!" Three sounds of air being pierced, and then several figures appeared behind Sora.

"Kochou, what's the matter?" Sora asked, facing a mature, older sister-type figure behind him.

"Master, the Sekirei you are looking for has been found, in the park ahead." Sweet and melodious, Kochou's voice was as full of endless charm as her appearance.

A flash of light appeared in his eyes, and a smile curved on Sora's lips. He looked at the park not far ahead and said:

"Let's go, to save that lost little bird and welcome your new sister."

A clear breeze blew, swirling up fallen leaves. The voice still echoed in the air, but the figures on the high platform had already vanished without a trace…

…

Although it was late at night, the park was still brightly lit, and many nocturnal people were still wandering around.

In a certain rest area, many people were standing. Some were looking at their phones, some were talking, and some were walking back and forth as if nothing was happening.

It was an ordinary scene.

If their eyes, with their strange gleam, didn't occasionally glance in a certain direction.

Following that direction, there was a girl, a girl sitting listlessly on a long bench.

The girl had short, light brown hair. Both her figure and face were very striking and beautiful. A white short coat was casually draped over her body, revealing countless patches of snow-white skin, which looked very alluring.

However, compared to these, the girl had one most obvious feature:

On her forehead, there was a fiery red Sekirei pattern!

This Sekirei pattern not only didn't ruin the girl's image as one might expect, but instead added a touch of unusual beauty to her.

However, although the girl was beautiful and alluring, she was currently staring blankly at the ground in front of her, her eyes empty, as if everything in the world was irrelevant to her.

Moreover, a faint chill strangely permeated the girl's surroundings. As soon as you got close, it would instantly fill your entire body. Coupled with the many other abnormalities about her, it made many people who wanted to strike up a conversation with her hesitate.

But even so, many people were still unwilling to leave. Even if they couldn't get close, they were willing to stand on the side and look with eyes full of desire.

However, everything changed until a figure arrived.

A young man, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man, with black hair and black eyes, and a charming smile on his face, walked towards the listless girl on the bench under the surprised gazes of the crowd.

At this time, the surrounding people no longer focused their eyes on the girl on the bench, nor on the young man, but on the other three figures behind the young man.

Three women, three beautiful women they had never seen before! Whether it was the two extremely similar women dressed in S&M outfits, or the silver-haired woman with a graceful figure and an endless charm radiating from her entire body, all made the eyes of these people shine brightly, and they kept swallowing their saliva.

Although they all wanted to step forward and strike up a conversation with them, even if it was just to say a word, no one took half a step, and even involuntarily stepped back to make way for them as they approached.

It wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they didn't dare! Each of these three women exuded an invisible aura that made them unable to approach even slightly!

Although their bodies dared not approach, and the feeling that these women were very dangerous kept echoing in their hearts, no one was willing to leave.

Perhaps in their eyes, taking one more look was a gain.

Not paying attention to the gazes of these people, Hikari and Hibiki had seen too much of this kind of thing since they had been following Sora all these years. Let them look as they like, anyway, they can't get anything, so let them be envious to death.

Slowly walking to the front of the girl with the blank eyes, Sora stopped and said with a hint of playfulness in his tone:

"It's late, this is not a place for girls like you to be."

Hearing Sora's words, the girl did not look up, her expression showing even more loneliness, but she replied:

"I have nowhere to go…"

The smile on his face grew even more, Sora said again:

"You are really special. How about it, want to come with me, become my strength, and… woman?"

This time, the girl finally looked up, and a glimmer of light finally bloomed in her empty eyes, staring incredulously at the young man who suddenly appeared in front of her.

A smile, a charming but very warm smile, seemed to melt all the ice in her heart and soul…

However, then, as if remembering something, the girl's pupils suddenly dilated, and she said with great shock:

"You are, Sora…sama…"

Without denying it, Sora stepped forward, one hand lifting the girl's chin, his charming but exceptionally handsome face almost touching the girl's forehead.

"Long time no see, Abandoned No. 7. But, don't call me Sora-sama anymore, call me… Master."
