Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Sweet karma

Yuuma looked up at Shirayuki what was this crazy princess going on about they were only 13 far too young to get married and have children, while Yuuma knew that Yokai and cultivators valued strength this was just ridiculous.

 

"Princess Shirayuki can you please let me up and we can talk about this , this is all a bit sudden after all we are only 13" yuuma tried to reason with the princess.

Yumma looked towards Mr Karasuma and his friends for help, the bastards were pretending not to notice, what was worse is asuna and Kai were laughing at Yuuma's misfortune he would be sure to get them back for this later!

"It's just Yuki not Princess or Shirayuki, those other names are much too formal" Yuki pouted and let yuuma stand up.

As soon as Yuuma got to his feet he made a break for it trying to escape only to have Yuki crash into him from behind and pin him to the ground again.

For a little girl she sure was strong her brute strength reminded him of his older sister Sumi, were all yokai girls as strong as monsters or was he just unlucky?

As Yuuma was pondering this thought and lamenting his life Yuki spoke to him once again with a pout "That wasn't fair Husband you said we would talk and than you tried to run away from me, if you keep trying to run away I will never let go of you again" Yuki giggled slightly as if imagining never letting him go again.

It sure was going to be a long year if Yuki kept clinging to him like this , Yuuma sighed softly "Yuki how about if you let me up you can join me and my friends for burgers after school today? We were planning on hanging out after school and celebrating getting into the cultivation academy"

Yuki's ears pricked up and she started wagging her tail madly, as a wolf kin she was almost liked an excited puppy "Really you mean it Husband I can join you and your friends for burgers after school you promise?"

Yuuma chuckled to himself if he was going to be stuck with this calamity he was going to make sure to drag his friends with him, "Of course you can Yuki I promise if you let me up you can join us for burgers later but on one condition you need to stop calling me Husband my name is Yuuma or you can call me Yuu like my friends and family do".

Yuki stood up and helped Yuuma to his feet before clinging to his right arm "It's a promise than Husband ... I mean Yuu-chan, you can't go back on your words now, let's get back to the rest of the group and see what else Mr karasuma is going to teach us today".

As Yuuma and Yuki arrived back to where the rest of the class were Mr Karasuma clapped his hands, "Okay now children let's head back to the classroom and I can explain to you all about cultivation and how it works, I'm sure your all very eager to start your journey".

As they were walking back to the classroom Asuna quickly caught up to Yuuma and walked next to him on his left side mocking him for his misfortune"It seems like your eagerness to fight backfired on you, Yuu-chan seems the princess has taken a liking to you'.

Yuuma flashed Asuna a devilish grin "Oh that's right Asuna I would like to introduce you to princess Shirayuki, though she would preferred to be called Yuki, she will be joining us, Kai and your sister for burgers after school today, I thought it would be a good opportunity to get to know her"

Asuna pinched Yuuma's side sharply causing him a moment of pain before smiling and reaching a hand across in front and introducing herself to Yuki "I hear your going to be joining us this afternoon for burgers after school today Yuki, I look forward to hanging out with you and getting to know you better"

Yuki sniffed the air slightly "Is that a hint of jealousy I smell, from the smell of it you want to mate with husband as well, we can be sister wives and share him a strong yokai needs to have plenty of mates husband is going to be the strongest I will make sure he has a hundred wives and we will have a hundred babies" Yuki's tail swayed more and more as she got excited.

Asuna's face went bright red as she got flustered " I-It-It's not like that I swear me and Yuu-kun are just childhood friends, there is nothing between us like that and anyway we are only 13 we are much too young to be talking about things like that".

Yuuma laughed at Asuna's misfortune payback was sweet, inviting Yuki to hangout with them later was a brilliant idea, as they arrived back at the classroom they walked towards their desk to listen to Mr karasuma explain to them about how cultivation worked.

Yuki finally let yuuma go before going to where she was sitting before, at last he was free kai sat down next to him.

"Yo Yuu what was that all about man you seemed super close to the Princess think you can put a good word in for me, maybe she get help me get demoted to C class I don't belong here man it's a mistake"

Yuuma rolled his eyes at Kai "You can ask her yourself man, she is going to be joining us for burgers this afternoon it was the only thing I could do to make her let go of me"

Just as Yuuma was starting to relax and getting ready to listen to Mr Karasuma's lecture Yuki walked over towards their desk and approached Kai "excuse me I was wondering if I could trouble you, I would really like to sit next to my husband.... I mean Yuu-chan if you wouldn't mind".

Kai looked up at Yuki in shock this was his opportunity " I mean I don't mind moving princess but I was wondering if you could do me a favour in return, you see there has been a terrible mistake and they have put me in A class , I don't belong here I'm no prodigy like you guys, but maybe if you put in a good word for me they will listen to you"

Yuki looked at kai and thought about it for a few seconds "I'm sorry but I can't help you with that unfortunately the school has it's own ruling and even as royalty I cannot interfere, how about if I give you 3 gold coins instead as gratitude for letting me sit beside my husband?"

Kai didn't even need to think for a second before packing his things up and getting ready to move "You have a deal princess I am most happy to help you in your quest for true love" kai bowed to the princess before scuttling off to sit beside Aisha after the princess had paid him.

The rotten bastard had sold him out for money Yuuma almost couldn't believe it but than that's just how kai was, Sighing to himself it was going to be a very long year.

Mr Karasuma clapped his hands to get everyone's attention "Okay now children im going to explain how cultivation works, cultivation is divided into nine different levels: chi gathering, foundation establishment, golden core, nascent soul, hollow spirit, body condensation, cauldron filling, disaster transformation and the truth realization. Then, each state has nine smaller levels. It is 81 small levels in total to reach truth realisation state peak, once you reach peak truth realisation you will have the chance to attempt the heavenly tribulation and ascend to immortality"
