Reincarnated as Rikuo's Twin Brother | Nurarihyon no Mago

Message

After two hours or so, Reiji finally woke up from his sleep. Feeling energized, he jumped up from his bed and started stretching his body, making some snapping sounds from time to time.

"God.. *yawn* that felt nice..." He muttered as he entered the bathroom.

As he did, he immediately went to the faucet and washed his face whilst looking at himself at the mirror.

The water splashed onto both of his hair and face, making it squeaky clean and his hair droopy. Facing the mirror, Reiji could see himself and his wet bangs, looking like an exact copy of Rikuo.

He couldn't help but smile at this.

"What if... I infiltrate the Nura clan estate..." he said to himself as he stared in the mirror with a grin.

"Tha'd be fun!" he said excitedly

After his quick daydream, Reiji fixed his hair back to its original position and change his clothes. Taking off his button-up, he grabbed a blue hoodie and changed into it. His grin, never disappearing.

"Now then... to the abandoned building!" He cheered while raising his fist up.

He immediately ran out of the room, grabbed his sword, turned off the lights, and locked the door, before rushing out of his apartment.

**************

On the way there, Reiji, once again stopped by a fast food restaurant and bought some food.

Who doesn't like food?

Quickly buying another burger, one French fry, and a cup of soda, he jogged to the closest building near Rikuo's abandoned school building and set up there. 

Turning into his own fear, he floated up the building and arrived at it's rooftop. He immediately sat down and watched the action from there..

"I guess its starting.." Reiji muttered as he saw the glass being shattered from the abandoned building.

Taking a sip of his soda, he watched as Rikuo, his classmates and the Rikuo's followers interact with the dangerous yokai. Running away from the said Yokai, protecting Kana since she fainted, and the other two attacking the yokai head on.

"Honestly, it's not as fun watching it from here.." Reiji said as he took a bite of his burger "No, actually, I don't think it's fun anymore.." 

'Disappointing ' He thought darkly

With a heavy sigh, Reiji took the entire container of French fry and dumped it all into his mouth.

After swallowing them all down, Reiji jumped down from the building and threw all the other trash in the bin.

He then ran towards the abandoned building and hid in the very corner of the abandoned building, away from Rikuo and the other's eyes.

Reiji retracted his fear and presence at the same time, making him almost impossible to sense.

Keeping quiet, he listen to their conversation.

"You guys, you were here from the start.." Rikuo said as he looked at Aotabo and Yukionna, as he held Kana in his arms.

"Yes, at home, outside, and even at school... Ever since that day Rikuo-sama awakened, we have always watched over you. . " Yukionna replied

Hearing Yukionna's voice, Reiji felt a tinge of sadness.

He was thrown away without warning, and so young too. He didn't have the chance to talk to Yukionna that much. . .

His presence was already disappearing from a very young age. .

"Ha. It's like I've become a certain *abbysgate.." Reiji chuckled sadly at himself.

He closed his eyes in a wryly smile, as he leaned into the wall and sighed a bit. He was quickly snapped out of his trance when he heard a tiny scream coming from Kana.

"Its alright, Kana-chan.." Rikuo said "There we're no yokais!" He lied

(A/N I know the plural is still Yokai but in english it just sounds so off, I need to add an 's')

"Really?"

"Hm! Really."

Ending that conversation, Rikuo invited Kana over the Nura mansion, and they soon left the vicinity.

Seeing as no body was left, Reiji came out of his hiding place and stood where Rikuo was earlier.

His face revealed a bored smile, his eyes turning red, a sign he was partially turning Yokai "This wasn't as exciting as I thought it would be." Reiji muttered coldly

"Rikuo. . you're slowly disappointing me."

With that said, he took his sword out of his fear and drew it out of it's sheath, revealing a dark blade underneath.

With a cold smile on his face, he faced the abandoned building and swung his sword, releasing a sword slash made out of his own fear. With a few swings and carve, he sheathed the sword once again, and left for his apartment with a satisfied expression.

There he wrote:

<<The Nura clan shall rise again>>
