No Otaku with Harem System

Chapter 68: A Strange Story 1

(Mikoto perspective)

Saeko and I reached the room where Luis was resting. Upon entering we saw Luis smiling wryly while Shizuka and Aki checked his body to check that he was recovering.

"I already told you I'm fine" - Luis seemed to find the situation funny, but that fool can't imagine how worried we were.

"Mou, darling you just have to leave everything in our hands" - Shizuka pouted and continued checking Luis's pulse. - "Although I do not know how to judge that your pulse became strange, it seems the rhythm of a rock song or something similar"

In the days that Luis was unconscious, we saw all kinds of strange things in his body. To begin with, there was the fact that he was able to remove his heart and form a new one, his blood gradually turned black, his pulse was no longer that of a human, and the black blood itself prevented a transplant surgery, plus Luis was able to organize a test for Rin and Kaede despite being a vegetable.

The most confusing thing was that his DNA was human, so we did not know what was happening and we only had to ask him, hoping that he knew what was happening.

"Shizuka, Aki, I'm fine and you can do a check-up later, I need to say something important to Saeko and Mikoto" - Luis sighed and then made a serious face.

"Then tell about it while we check your condition, there is something in your body that does not stop worrying me and I do not know what it is" - Aki continued checking the condition of Luis' left arm which had almost been torn in the fight with the man with skin gray.

"..." - Luis stared with a complicated expression, I think I understand his concern.

"Are you going to tell us about a sensitive topic and you don't want many people to listen?" - I asked him directly.

Luis sighed and nodded. - "It's a complicated issue"

"Just say it, or don't you trust us?" - Sayo who was on the side asked him with annoyance.

"... Um, I don't think we have introduced ourselves" - Luis looked wryly at Sayo who was stealing my role as a jealous wife, not that it bothers me, it definitely does not bother me.

"Ah right, haha ​​sorry, Hitsugi Sayo, I'm glad to finally talk to you, I appreciate what you did to save me so as a reward for your sacrifice I will join this colorful harem that you are forming. Great, isn't it?" - Sayo smiled cheekily.

This woman is direct and she does whatever she wants, that's why she didn't want the two to meet, now I can only sigh.

"Well, my group of nurses is growing, maybe I should get injured more often" - Luis smiled.

"Don't you dare say that shit even as a joke! Do you have any idea how worried I was ?! " - I almost rushed to beat up this carefree idiot.

"Okay I'm sorry, I'll be more careful, come, let me pamper you a little" - Luis made an apologetic expression and then made a gesture with his hand.

Even though I felt angry I still walked over and enjoyed Luis's hand on my head stroking my hair.

"I don't want to lose you ..." - I spoke in a low voice, I was very scared of losing this fool, without him I wouldn't know what to do.

"I'll be more careful" - Luis spoke kindly creating a warm atmosphere just for the two of us.

"Mou darling, I've tried to take care of you and I don't have a romantic moment" - Shizuka pouted breaking the atmosphere.

"It will be for later, I really have to tell you something important" - Luis smiled to console Shizuka and then looked at us seriously while he continued stroking my head, I think he has an addiction to patting.

"What I'm going to tell you is something that should not leave this room, and that includes you Yuko" - Luis looked at the door that was closed.

The door opened and Yuko entered with an embarrassed expression. - "I wanted to see your condition, but I didn't want to interrupt them"

"Fine, this is something important since they used my blood to do some tests" - Luis's words froze us.

"How?" - Yuko asked in shock.

"How did I know? Although my body was in a coma, my brain could still capture information from the outside and I have very good senses "- Luis shrugged, I always forget how absurd his body is.

"Okay, it doesn't bother me, in fact, I feel like I owe you an explanation" - Luis gave us that kind and an affectionate smile that makes my heart feel warm.

"Well, where to start ..." - Luis took a moment as if it were difficult to explain her condition. - "First, what do you think is Aki's ability to analyze people's health status?"

I looked at Aki and realized that she didn't know how to respond.

Earlier I thought that Aki's ability was due to her medical knowledge, but over time I realized that it was something more like a supernatural ability. Since I have trained Ki and now with the Bullet Time ability I realize that Aki has a supernatural ability like Sayo's strength.

"Ummm I don't know" - Aki herself tilted her head in confusion. - "I have always been good at seeing people's condition and that is why I decided to study medicine since that way I could help others"

Luis nodded. - "Let's start with something simple"

"As you know Kaede is not human, she belongs to a race with a strength greater than humans as well as an innate power that allows her to form invisible limbs that can smash cars like cardboard"

"Kaede is strong, the problem is that her species seems to follow the evolution cycle where the strong destroy the weak to expand their territory, Kaede sees humans as weak beings who are not worth it, only people who show strength are worthy of attention"

"But don't worry, I've been training Kaede's instincts so she is harmless and even she cares about the people in our group to the point of protecting her lives."

I sighed in relief, Luis has mentioned that Kaede has the potential to match him in strength so it would be scary if that girl becomes an enemy, plus only yesterday three Smokers almost entered the base, but they were killed by Kaede without problems.

Since the incident where Kaede killed the traitors, she has been more outspoken showing her abilities and now everyone at the base knows that she is strong, but they don't know that Kaede is not human and they think that she obtained a special ability like Saeko, Yuko and me.

"Putting that aside, our world has people with particular abilities, Yuko herself is an example of that since her hair changes color when she prepares to fight which somehow improves her speed"

"What I want to get to with this is that I myself have a special ability"

Luis took a deep breath.

"My ability allows me to connect to other parallel realities and obtain knowledge and skills of those worlds, I can also travel to other worlds if I can meet the appropriate conditions"

We were silent, although it sounded absurd when you consider the situation in the world is not entirely far-fetched.

"So your martial arts, Ki, and that black blood are from other worlds?" - I asked curiously, the idea of ​​other worlds is interesting.

"That's where things get complicated" - Luis sighed.

"The journey to other worlds is not so easy, the first time I used this ability was by accident"

"After my parents were murdered when I was a child, I lived on the streets to hide from the murderers, one day I became unconscious in an alley due to hunger and when I opened my eyes I found myself in a world just like ours, but where the Martial arts evolved to the point of generating Ki making humans dedicated to martial arts have a power superior to firearms "

"When I arrived in that world I realized that I had new parents who loved me and I was not alone, although I loved my parents in this world, the idea of ​​having a family again made me happy so I lived peacefully for a while until a car accident took away my second family "

When I saw Luis's lonely expression I took his hand to show him that he was not alone, he smiled at me and continued.

"I fell into depression and I was wandering aimlessly until I met a girl who practiced martial arts, she invited me to be part of her dojo and since I had no purpose in my life I followed her"

"I met some of the strongest experts in the world and became a disciple of the dojo, my talent and dedication was strong so my strength grew rapidly surprising the experts"

"Things were going well and I even formed a relationship with my sword techniques master, but one day there was an incident where my only friend's family was kidnapped, I protected them and ended up murdering the kidnappers."

Although I felt jealous when I saw Luis's affectionate smile when he mentioned his master, my heart ached when I saw his sudden expression of loneliness.

"Unlike you who have no problem using murder to deal with scum and enemies, the martial artists of that other world are divided in two, those who murder and those who do not, my masters were from the group that values ​​life for what my actions caused me to be expelled from the dojo "

I clenched my teeth furiously, but Luis caressed my hand.

"Even though it hurt that they turned their back on me, I don't hate them, they were a family to me and I respect them"

"For a martial artist, principles are more valuable than their lives so choosing the path of not killing is not out of cowardice but out of love of life so don't hate them"

I didn't say anything and just held Luis's hand.

"After that, I thought about leaving the city and looking for a new path, but a martial arts expert kidnapped me and took me to an organization of martial artists who followed the fist of murder and wanted to take over the world."

"The values ​​of martial artists are particular and can be quite extreme when choosing a path"

I'm speechless. So we who use murder to protect people would be the villains in that world? How absurd.

"I refused to join them so they used brainwashing to turn me into a weapon without will."

Luis gritted his teeth furiously, but not at his captors but at himself.

"In my first mission I was sent to a conflict zone, I killed many people, innocent people ... Children, the elderly, pregnant women, I took many innocent lives ..."

Shizuka and I hugged Luis when we saw that his gaze turned gloomy, the guilt in his eyes was so overwhelming that he conveyed a feeling of wanting to die so I could only hug him to show him that regardless of his mistakes I loved him and would not stop loving him.

"Thank you" - Luis smiled.

"On a mission, I was shot in the head protecting one of the few people I liked in that group, when my vision darkened I thought she had died, but somehow I survived"

I remember that they did X-rays on Luis to see her condition and there was a hole in his skull that was covered with black blood to protect him, I was going to ask him what happened, but now I know.

"I was in a dark space, I thought that was limbo after I died, but instead I met someone or rather something, I couldn't remember what happened in that space, perhaps as a result of the headshot"

"When I woke up I came back to this world a couple of months ago. The shot eliminated the mind control and I was filled with guilt for my actions, but I also wanted to look for the murderer of my parents, with my new strength I sought to join the yakuza to investigate who killed my parents "

"Then the infection happened, when I saw how people died in miserable ways I remembered what I did in the other world and I was filled with guilt so I gave up my desire for revenge and focused on saving other people as a form of atonement"

"Until now I only remembered the other world, but I could not remember what happened in limbo, when I was unconscious after the battle in the hospital I was able to return to limbo and recover the memories of the place, I also met the strange entity again"

Luis sighed and looked at us seriously. - "What I'm about to say will sound even more absurd, but I want you to try to accept it as strange as it may sound"

"More absurd than traveling to other worlds?" - I tried to joke, but Luis answered directly.

"Yes" - Luis looked seriously.

I nodded, curious what he was about to say.

"Before I explain I need you to answer something and I hope you think about your answers well, all of you including Aki and Yuko"

Luis took a deep breath, looking at the seriousness in his eyes I felt my heart race without understanding why.

"Mikoto, Saeko, Shizuka, Sayo, Aki, Yuko ..."

I had a strange feeling.

"Will you marry me?"
