Chapter 228

"The boy did nothing wrong, he was nothing but useful to me and Yasaka-hime, and with him we can get an alliance with the Bible Factions." Kurokaze spoke calmly, but one could clearly see the anger in his eyes.

"You cannot see! The boys have blinded you!" Oni roared before being hit by a torrent of pure golden aura. Yasaka stood there with his hand outstretched.

"The guards are taking that senile old fool to prison."

"Hai!"

Several Youkai guards grabbed Baldo as they led him out of the room.

"This meeting is adjourned, I need to make sure my daughter is okay." Yasaka declared as he left the room in a hurry. Kurokaze stood up from his chair.

"Well, that was a complete waste of time. I knew Baldo didn't like humans and I never imagined he would go this far." He thought aloud before leaving the room.

Inukimi watched as the other council members left.

"I wonder what is so special about that boy. Gilgamesh the Sekiryuutei? Maybe I should pay him a little visit sooner or later. And if Yasaka hasn't claimed him yet, maybe ..." She thought before shaking her head.

"No, I'm not going to fall in love with some human. No matter how powerful or special he is." She thought aloud before leaving the room.4

With Gilgamesh and Kunou.

"I will get you Kunou-chan!"

"You will never catch me Onii-sama!"

Gilgamesh decided to teach Kunou to play catch, and the six-year-old kitsune had a talent for it. The fact that she was incredibly fast for her age, even faster than most of the children in the village of Hidden Leaves. Of course, Gilgamesh could easily have caught her if he really wanted to. But he wanted her to have fun, for it was no surprise to him that she didn't have many friends, if any. Besides, he was sure that Yasaka would appreciate it if he expelled some of the unlimited energy trapped inside Kunou.

"Master has several signatures around him and none of them are friendly" warned Regulus in Gilgamesh's mind.

Gilgamesh stopped for the moment and put on a serious face.

"I need you to keep an eye on Kunou-chan for me. Because I will take care of who is out there watching us" spoke Gilgamesh.

A small golden light emerged from Gilgamesh's body catching Kunou's attention, the light slowly shaped itself and when it disappeared Regulus was seen materializing in the form of a Lion cub the size of an ordinary cat.

Before Yasaka could respond, Gilgamesh appeared between her, Kunou and Regulus.

"Yasaka your back." Gilgamesh said with a smile. Yasaka was looking at Gilgamesh and sighed with relief.

"Yes, the meeting was a complete waste of time." Yasaka said as Gilgamesh approached.

"Did you find anyone?"

Gilgamesh nodded as he sighed.

"Yes, I found a small group of pink-skinned Youkai. But as soon as I approached them they ran away?" Gilgamesh looked almost disappointed. Yasaka breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good thing they didn't cause you any trouble. And just so you know, they are commonly known as Oni." Yasaka explained.

"But why would they come after us?" Gilgamesh asked.

"Their clan leader, Baldo, he saw you as a threat and wanted to get rid of you. However, he won't cause you any more trouble. He was a senile old fool who had a strong dislike for humans, and openly hated half-breeds. People like him have no place on the council where he would do anything to get what he wants." Yasaka said with narrowed eyes.

"Well, what's done is done."

Yasaka nodded in agreement with Gilgamesh before turning her attention to Kunou who was hugging her mother's leg and refusing to let go. Giving a motherly smile, she gently stroked Kunou's head. They spent the rest of the day playing with Kunou. Even Regulus spent some time with the energetic kitsune, although they soon retreated to the inside of Gilgamesh after Kunou turned her eyes on him and was chasing the little Lion.

A Few Days Later.

Kyoto, Japan.

Surrounded by trees, the wind blew gently through the area. It was quiet, the animals went about their own business, searching for food or items to create nests. However, this peace and tranquility was interrupted when a large object was thrown against a tree. The impact of said object not only causes the tree to crack, but also to fall.

Gilgamesh skidded when he had been sent away by a surprise attack while leaning against the newly created tree stump. Looking closer, Gilgamesh was wearing only a pair of black kung fu pants and shoes. Looking up, a large orb of blue flames came flying towards him, with a little effort Gilgamesh was able to avoid the deadly attack.

Standing in front of him was Yasaka, who was wearing an oil-blue kimono shirt that was closed by a black obi and dark purple kung fu pants and shoes.

What was happening was a mock battle of Gilgamesh and Yasaka.

A few days after Yasaka's meeting with Baldo she found some time to train her daughter Kunou, and Gilgamesh had decided to help.
