Odyssey - How To Tame A Demon

Chapter 29: A win for the Redhead

Returning to the hotel, Chuuya found Fyo still fast asleep. "Tch." He went to the terrace to find the fresh air that he did not enjoy when he went outside just a while ago. Trying to relax himself on the chair while looking at the ocean, he saw a familiar figure a few meters away from the hotel building on the ground. It was the man whom Fyo talked about, their new lead for the next key. Having their room on the second floor, he could easily see the people below. The man was also wearing traditional clothing but was talking to a man dressed all in black from his suit and coat, seemingly a trustworthy guy (note the sarcasm from Chuuya's point of view) under a tree near the ocean.

Using his ability, Chuuya flew above where the darkness could hide his figure. Situating himself above the tree and hiding in its leaves, he intended to listen to what the two men were talking about.

"The prime minister and the king will arrive in the assembly; we must secure the data first before that."

"Yes, in a few days I will have it in my hands."

"And don't worry about the platoon in the north, they are having fun," said the man in the coat with mirth in his voice.

"What the hell are they talking about?" Chuuya thought.

"Hold on, someone was here," the man in the hotel before stated as he looked around, sensing another presence near them. His colleague took his gun with a silencer ready to shoot. Chuuya was ready to fight and knock them both, but suddenly a bird on the tree flutters its wings and flew away. There was a nest far from the leaves Chuuya was hiding in.

"It's just a bird," said the man in the coat.

"Well, I can't stay any longer; I'll be back once you secure the data we need," followed the guy and left, leaving the man in a yukata.

"He's good," Chuuya had to admit as he watched the unsuspecting doe walk away. They had to be careful if they want to deal with him. From the way the man moves and talks, he can assume that he is a trained spy or an agent. He will ask Fyo about this man later on. Ensuring that both men are out of range, he slowly returned to their hotel room using the darkness to hide. To his disappointment, he still had to deal with this obnoxious subordinate of his who is covered with blankets and pillows.

...

Seated and facing the bed, Chuuya's mind was filled with the details of how they are going to get the other keys and what role the two guys he spied on earlier have to do with it.

He looked outside, but nothing came to him.

"Arrggg," he rummaged his head as he could not come up with anything. They were not in Yokohama; therefore, he was not really familiar with anything, and all he could do is depend on the information they have on hand, in his case, Fyo.

Unable to come up with anything, Chuuya decided to forget about everything and proceed to sleep next to Fyo after putting a large number of pillows and a blanket between them. However, before he could finish, a hand suddenly grabbed his waist and pulled him to the bed for an embrace. Now, with only the pillows and blanket in between them, a tall guy was glued to Chuuya.

"F*ck, unhand me jackass!" Chuuya exclaimed, struggling to free himself from Fyo's clutches. Fyo's face then emerged from the pile of pillows with a smile as he tightened his grip on the redhead.

"Nope," the tall guy replied, still smiling.

"Are you drunk or something?" he loudly asked.

Chuuya was surprised by the other's action, heat starting to climb on his face, but he fought his thoughts. Looking at Fyo looked like a toddler wanting to be picked up by his mother.

"I said let go!" Chuuya shouted as he managed to sit down on the bed and pushed the tall guy. And because of how flustered and unprepared he was, he shoved the other with force causing Fyo to hit his head on the headboard of the bed and faint again. Chuuya blinked, trying to fully understand what just happened.

It took a couple of seconds for Chuuya to fully understand what just happened. Chuuya poked Fyo's shoulder to check on him, but there was no response.

"What the... you're not dead, are you?" he asked, his face contorting, waiting for a reply.

"Hey?"

...

The next morning, to Chuuya's great disappointment, he found himself wearing a beautiful black kimono decorated with countless different-colored flowers, his hair adorned with beautiful hairpins.

With Fyo at his side, hands glued to his waist, they walked down the street heading to the stores.

"What's with the long face?" Fyo asked the redhead.

Chuuya quickly looked at the person in front of him and glared. "This is not a long face. If you are not aware, this is my angry face!" snarled the redhead.

"Oh, it's no matter. Even if you're mad, pretty chibi, you're more beautiful than any scenery around here, and I will be thrilled to see your face every day," Fyo replied with an amused smile.

"It's so early in the morning and this f*cker, has the need to flirt," Chuuya thought his temples twitching with annoyance.

Chuuya was in disbelief as Fyo managed to convince him to wear a disguise as a woman again. The reasoning was that most of the people and personnel in the hotel, especially their target, had seen him before wearing a dress and under disguise. And the subordinate of his had the audacity to scold him for going out last night in mens clothing. For now, they should avoid the places he had been before to avoid suspicion, as Fyo had said.

And for the mission, Chuuya was displeased but had no choice but to oblige.

"Are you not doing this as revenge for what happened last night?" Chuuya muttered angrily.

Fyo looked down at him with an unreadable expression. Fyo soon reached out to his head, lightly brushing it, trying to feel something. His face was confused as if he were remembering that he hit his head right after fainting.

Chuuya grabbed Fyo's hand, yanking it away from his waist.

"Watch where you're doing, or I'm going to beat you... again!" and he walked away, leaving the stunned Fyo. Chuuya was somehow content, as for the first time he had the last word and left the dumbfounded Fyo.

Anyways so yeah, the latest release shows events that happened 12 years ago, Chuuya and Dazai were probably around 9 or 10, and probably a toddler little Atsushi in those events. And there's Fyodor, A grown-ass man?
