A few hours ago ,Yuki healed Asuma's left arm and his wounds and then she asked :"But, Mister Asuma, who is" beast from hell "?
Asuma answered her saying : "Well, a few years ago I developed a defense mechanism when I lost consciousness in the battles, which is to let my subconscious mind control my body and I will not lie to you. My subconscious mind is wild and barbaric because it represents all the anger and hatred centered on my soul ..."
"so , your subconscious is a monster?"asked Yuki again
"Almost in addition to my memories of when I used to shed the blood of demons without stopping, in addition when I lost consciousness I also lost the sense of pain, which means that the curse will not affect that thing, so it is possible for him to use deadly attacks and kill me with him, so his goal is not to stay alive but Winning the battle no matter what it costs .... ''said Asuma
Yuki was speechless and she was trying to analyse those informations .
Asuma then said :"So , did Scorpio say anything while I was unconscious ? ..."
Yuki this time was the one with the important informations answered Asuma :"Yes, he said that they would use your daughter's blood because she is from the Oni royal bloodline ...."
Asuma: "What ?! "then he started whispering " if my calculations are correct, but how will they do this? Tama blood is a hybrid between me and her mother ....Unless they want to do the ritual of 'reunification'? That explains a lot"and then he smiled.
"What is the rite of reunification?"said by Yuki
"It is a ritual performed by the demons to re-convert a hybrid demon into a pure demon, but it needs to sacrifice the non-demonic side and for this they want me alive in order to sacrifice me ...."answered Asuma
Yuki asked again:"But why do they want to make your daughter pure? Is royal blood so important?"
Asuma "Demons are like bees, need a queen or a king to rule them, and without one they disperse. This is why the owners of royal blood are rare and valuable, which means that they will not hurt her and this will give us plenty of time to prepare ..."
Asuma then got up and asked Yuki :"Should I tell them about the kimono made with fire? ''
Yuki: "Yes,well when you were unconscious you told them and now they are stitching it ..."
Asuma smiled and said:"Well, I'll go do something and I'll come back"and he took his sword and went to the woods .
Currently at the top of a tree Asuma was doing some physical training with rocks tied to his body and he was thinking while doing this training.
Asuma asked himself:" What did he mean when he said that I am not strong enough? Does he mean the curse or the evolution of demons? .. "
He jumped and landed on his feet and Took off the rocks while The sun was rising and the shadow of Asuma appeared in front of him Asuma raised his sword.
Asuma said in the language of demons: "My shadow mimics me in every action I do."
Asuma's shadow was sticking out from the ground and resembling an extremely black form of Asuma
Asuma said in enthusiasm "Let's get started!"
a few hours passed and Yuki was searching for Asuma,and she heard a voice, so followed it until she reached the source of the sound.
Yuki said :"Mister Asuma, your dress is ready ... What happened here?"
Half of the trees were cut down and destroyed, the ground changed shape, and Asuma seated before his sword with a few wounds to his body
Yuki was Terrified and she asked"Mr. Asuma, what happened to you? Did you fight a demon ??"
Asuma laughed and she answered his clueless Yokai friend: "No, Yuki, but I was training so I wanted to fight my shadow and I forgot that the curse is not working on him, so you can say that I faced myself in my strongest state, and I almost died if I had not trained a little ..."
Yuki approached Asuma and started healing him
"So Yuki, where's your family?"asked Asuma
Yuki answered him:"I don't have one. The foxes found me when I was a baby, and when other tails started to appear, I learned to hide them so that I could feel that I was part of them ..."
Asuma said to her"You don't have to be the person others want. You have to be yourself and don't try to hide my true appearance from everyone ..."
Asuma then put his hand over Yuki's head and says a mantra in the Yokai language ,Yuki transforms into her true form, which is a human girl with fox ears and tails
"How did you do? What is this ?!"asked Yuki with great perplexity
"This is your true form, and it was dormant just like your strength."said Asuma
"Now how am I going to get the foxes back like this?"said Yuki with even greater confusion
"I told you to be yourself and nothing else ... and now be encouraged and let us go to town."said Asuma
Yuki was hyped with Asuma's encouragement and said "Okay, but Mr. Asuma, I want to tell you something."
Asuma got up and told her :"You can tell me later when we're in town,if it's not an Emergency."
Yuki :"OK"
Asuma and Yuki went to the city together
later in Firefox City
Fox Leader said :"Mr. Asuma Domain, on behalf of all fire foxes, we want to thank you for saving us and because you opened our eyes to the danger posed by demons and for this as evidence of our thanks we want to give you this kimono made from the leaves of the sun tree in addition to the cloth and silk made of fire specially to face any danger Faces you .. "
"That sounds great ..."said Asuma
Fox Leader and pointed his hand to Asuma's face and said :"But first you have to apologize for what you did last time ..."
Asuma said sarcastically: "You never forget ... well, I am sorry for describing your tails as fluffy bags. I know your tails are the source of your pride and glory. I hope we will open a new page ... Is this good?"
Fox Leader nodded he guided the kimono to Asuma
The kimono is black with the sun symbol around it , Asuma Wore it and it was perfect in every way and he started to feel a great power and a greater hope for the future .
Asuma then went to Yuki to say goodbye and continue his journey after that.
Asuma asked :"So was it that bad?"
"No, it's not. They actually liked my new look."answered Yuki
Asuma smiled ans said:"This is better! So now I'm going ..."
Yuki shouted :"Hey, Mr. Asuma, I want to tell you something !! .."
Asuma stopped and asked her: "Oh yeah I forgot. What is it?"
Yuki brought a backpack and said with exited voice and face: "I'll join your journey, Mr. Asuma."
