"Woah, Ayumu, I thought I told you not to fight anyone once you got into town. Yet here you are fighting one of the worst possible opponents. Look at your state."

Tachan looks at me with disappointed eyes while still not letting go out of either of us

"H-hey! That wasn't my fault, this shithead's friends followed after me and started attacking first!"

He turns his eyes to the armored boy and aura seeps from his body

"Is that so...?"

Tachan grip tightens on his shoulder

"Why were you doing this, Mr. Lucifer? Or would you rather I call you Mr. Hakuryuukou?"

W-Wait, he knows about this too? S-so the Tenryuu thing is real?!

"In fact, why are you even in Rias Gremory's territory?"

Rias Gremory again? Who the hell is this girl?!

Uhhh! So many unanswered questions! And my body is getting tense being held like this!

"Tachan, do you think you could let me go?"

I say rolling my eyes as to point out my annoyance

"Hah, right, sorry"

I feel my movements return as I'm finally able to put my arms down and walk again

And to my surprise, Tachan also released the armoured boy!

"T-Tachan, don't! This guy is dangerous!"

I lift my blades up, but Tachan brushes it off

"Don't worry Ayumu, I know about this guy."

"You wha- ugh!" 

I'm interrupted as a feeling of soreness rushes through my body and I stumble

"S-shit"

With my power on it's last legs, of course this is happening.

"Ayumu!"

Tachan rushes to me and supports me by the shoulder

"Thanks, I exhausted all I had fighting this guy"

I say with a bitter smirk, but Tachan replies with a weird expression

"Don't worry, I'll give you some of mine but... err..."

He mumbles through his words, his face becoming red

"What is it?"

I ask confused and he rubs the back of his head

"I-I've been meaning to ask, but... w-what's with the get-up?"

My self-consciousness kicking again, I cover my body and reply with my face beet red

"K-Kusuke did it..."

I reply with these three words only, if it's Tachan, then he'll surely understand

"I-I see... that guy, huh?"

I nod embarassed as he finishes patching me up and I can walk normally again

"Are you better?"

"Yes, thanks"

Tachan gives me a smile at my positive answer, I touch the jewel and return to my normal clothing

"It's good to see you again, Ayumu"

He says looking at me and I feel my face redden even more

"Y-yes, y-you too..."
