My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death

Chapter 424: A Quick Victory

-----

Frank looked over Sadako as she slowly regenerated. The battle had finally come to an end.

He poured a bit of his blood over her mouth, as her slow and painful regeneration became faster.

Meanwhile, it seems that Matsuo and Uehara had ended the battle… And Matsuo had awakened more power than Frank expected. He was truly blessed by the legendary Plot Armor!

Aside from that, Frank found it interesting that he ended not killing the detestable Oni. Matsuo was way more gentle-hearted than he really seemed like, and he stopped the fights and even began to heal the wounded Oni and Monks.

"You're a tough girl, and strong too… Hopefully we can get along later on… Thought it might be harder than I originally would want it to be after I defeated you so badly…" sighed Frank.

Kaguya quickly rushed at his side, glancing at Sadako.

"The fight is over." Said Frank.

"S-She's alive… My lord, you didn't killed her?" asked Kaguya.

"I told you I wouldn't kill her," said Frank.

"Sadako…"

Kaguya moved near the Oni girl, kneeling, and hugging her tightly.

"I suppose you never joined the fight because you couldn't bring yourself to damage her, didn't you?" sighed Frank.

"T-That's right… I can't… I am sorry, my lord… I was so incompetent… Even when… Sadako had come to take my life… I wasn't prepared to take the life of my daughter…" sighed Kaguya.

"So she's like your daughter?" asked Frank.

"S-Since she was a child that I took care of her… When my mother defeated Shuten Doji's son and this little girl was what was left behind by him and his deceased wife… My mother died quickly after the fight, as both had killed each other with fatal moves… Leaving us without parents… At that time, I was inexperienced and still rather young… Despite the war between our families… I just… I just couldn't bring myself to leave a baby alone… Despite her red skin, despite the blood of demons flowing through her veins… I couldn't… I just… I couldn't…" muttered Kaguya, as she began to cry.

"I see…"

"Oh, Sadako… I am sorry… Sniff… I missed you so much, my dear little girl…" Kaguya began to cry like a mother who had reencountered with her child after years.

Sadako slowly woke up as silvery-white hair slowly began to regrow from her head, her wounds were mostly gone by now expect from several scars.

"Hahh… Why are you crying…? You… shouldn't cry…" muttered Sadako.

"Oh… I just… I can't help but find that all of this was so wrong… Sadako… I am the only one at fault here… I am sorry… I should have told you the truth… I should have told you that my mother… that my mother…"

"Tch, if you're going to cry like that then how am I even going to get in the mood to fight…" sighed Sadako.

"I am so sorry… I just wanted to love you despite our races… despite the disputes of our families… Despite… the past… I only can see you with the eyes of a mother…" cried Kaguya.

Sadako got more and more emotional as Kaguya cried out, her lips began to tremble as tears came out of her crimson-red eyes.

"S-Stop… D-Don't cry… I-I was just… an idiot… too… I shouldn't have gotten so angry. I should have… listened to you some more…"

"Oh, Sadako-chan… D-Do you really mean it?" asked Kaguya.

"I was defeated… I don't have the right to lie now… This whole war… I just felt that it was the right thing because… the Oni were so little and… they were living so miserably… As the descendant of my grandpa… I just wanted to avenge our fallen comrades… But at some point… I suppose I just became more and more idiotic… striving from my original path and thinking that by defeating you and the Monk Clan, our problems would be suddenly resolved…" sighed Sadako.

"I see… And I should have tried to look more for you… I was also idiotic… Do you really forgive me?"

"Hahh… I don't really have anything to forgive you for… I am the one that is wondering how you are even capable of forgiving me for everything I've done now…" sighed Sadako.

"Don't worry, they're all fine." Said Frank.

"Eh? W-What do you mean?"

Frank showed to Sadako that although some Onis were on the border of death, they were being healed in time.

"Let's end this fight now. There's no point in continuing this pointless war, especially at this stage of the world. I am the new Lord of the Monk Clan, and I declare the Oni Clan forgiven of any of the sins they had ever committed against the Clan- no, against all of Japan's folk. And also, I want to offer you something. Do you want to join your Clan to mine? I will accept the Oni with open arms, and I will force everyone to accept them, even if by force," said Frank.

"W-What? Y-You're the lord? D-Does that means that… Eh? You're mom's… husband?!" cried Sadako.

"…Well, technically I am. But that's not important right now!" said Frank.

"A-Ah… Right. Erm… Well… Are you sure? We are Oni, you know? We are… savages… brutes… barbaric… monsters… we are… we are not human…" sighed Sadako.

"Hah, I don't think there's anything wrong with Oni. Girl, I've gone to a world where there are many races. Do you truly believe I even mind them being stronger than humans, or looking different? And no, I don't believe that they are as you say. Perhaps the first generations were raised rather animalistic and barbaric… But that has changed. All the Oni here, I can feel that they are fighting for their families, for their children, they are not monsters bloodthirsty with blood… Aside from skin color and physique. There's no difference between Oni and Human." Said Frank.

"We are all the same." Said Frank, extending his hand to Sadako.

Sadako's eyes glowed with bright light, her heart was filled with emotions and hope…

"Who are you? I-I don't even know your name…" said Sadako.

"Name's Frank. Nice to meet you."
