Chapter 459 - 458: Mai couldn't hold back anymore
Chapter 459 - 458: Mai couldn't hold back anymore
And the boy who once swore he would protect her had become a dog of the Shinra Company. When she needed him most, he wasn't by her side.
She couldn't even find him at all.
Tifa unconsciously bit her lip.
She no longer knew whether she should still hold expectations for Cloud Strife.
After all…
He had joined Shinra Company.
And Shinra was the organization that destroyed her hometown.
Would he still stand firmly on her side like he used to?
Tifa didn't know.
But she knew very clearly that if Ryuji continued treating her this gently and thoughtfully…
Then maybe, one day, she would forget Cloud.
Just like those children who left the village and eventually forgot the village itself. Cloud would forget her, just as she would forget him.
The two of them would gradually forget each other.
After all, she had already arrived in another world.
She secretly glanced at Ryuji again.
Although Ryuji had said he possessed a way to send her back, the way he kept avoiding the details and refusing to explain it clearly still made her unable to stop herself from overthinking things.
Is it a method with a huge price attached to it?
Or maybe… he himself doesn't know whether it would succeed?
Naturally, Tifa had no way of imagining what Ryuji's conditions for sending her back actually were.
But instinctively, she still thought about it.
Because judging from how generous Ryuji normally acted, it wasn't difficult for her to guess that the conditions required to send her back must be extremely harsh.
So, I might have to live in this world forever?
But if that's the case… then the only person who knows who I really am, and where I truly came from…
Would only be Mr. Ryuji.
Thinking of that, she couldn't help looking at him a little longer.
And then she noticed Ryuji flipping through his notes, allowing her to glimpse some of the words written on it.
'Adaptation of techniques between Shiranui-ryū and Zangan Style Martial Arts.'
Because Ryuji had already left such a good impression on her, Tifa naturally interpreted his actions in the best possible light.
…Is he thinking about how to make me stronger?
Tifa felt even more lost and uncertain inside.
But Ryuji himself didn't know any of this.
For some reason, inspiration was continuously surging through his mind right now, all kinds of new ideas constantly appearing one after another. By the time Mai finished cooking again, he had only barely managed to finish writing down all of his thoughts.
However, his reorganization of both the Shiranui-ryū and the Zangan style was already complete.
By combining breathing techniques, Life Return, and the various other things he had learned, the new version of the Shiranui-ryū martial arts placed even greater emphasis on the coordination between body and mind, while greatly enhancing physical shaping, potential growth, and the expansion of one's limits.
Whether practiced by men or women, the practitioner's physique would become exceptionally attractive. Sleep quality, memory, and thinking speed would all improve significantly. Skin quality and eyesight would also improve greatly, to the point where nearsightedness could even be completely cured.
However, for some inexplicable reason, the martial arts system he had modified for the Shiranui-ryū style had also gained an additional function.
Why does it have the ability to regenerate hair follicles?
Looking at the new Shiranui-ryū manual he had compiled, Ryuji genuinely couldn't understand why, among all these nearly perfect effects, there would suddenly appear such a strange function that was difficult to even evaluate.
He had not developed anything related to that area.
But this method wasn't without flaws.
That is…
The nerves would become somewhat more sensitive, and the stimulation toward hormones was also rather strong. It would make people more attractive, while also intensifying their desires.
It was difficult to say whether this counted as a positive effect or a negative one.
After thinking for a moment, Ryuji placed the little booklet in front of Mai and Tifa.
"This is the new Shiranui-ryū martial art I compiled by combining everything I've learned. Tifa, you can take a look too, but there's no need for you to learn it. This path doesn't suit you. If you combine your Zangan style with Life Return, your future accomplishments will only be even greater."
After all, Tifa's talent unquestionably surpassed Mai's.
Tifa obediently nodded, not doubting him at all.
"Mm, I understand, Mr. Ryuji."
Watching Mai pick up the booklet, Ryuji smiled and shook his head at Tifa.
"You can just call me Ryuji. There's no need to be so formal. We're companions."
Tifa hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
"Alright, Ryuji."
She smiled very happily.
But on the other side, Mai, who was flipping through the booklet, was completely stunned.
She could tell that this truly was Shiranui-ryū martial art techniques. She could easily switch over to it, and it was astonishingly simple to understand. It could even be said to be a higher-level training method custom-made specifically for her advancement.
But why does it feel like even the basic principles have completely changed?!
Was this really created based on my family's inherited qi techniques?
Why is Ryuji suddenly this incredible?!
Mai felt somewhat bewildered.
The last time she met him, his martial arts skills and knowledge of qi had still been relatively shallow!
But almost immediately afterward, Mai covered her heart with one hand.
Because her mind could only think of one possibility!
Ryuji definitely learned all of this specially for me!
The moment she thought of that, she could no longer hold herself back. She grabbed Ryuji's hand and dashed wildly toward the outside, while shouting toward Tifa:
"I'm borrowing Ryuji for a bit! You eat first!"
She swept away like a whirlwind while dragging Ryuji along, leaving Tifa standing there completely confused, unable to understand what Mai was doing.
"Is she going to tell Grandpa Hanzo and the others?"
That was the possibility Tifa came up with.
But the place Mai headed toward wasn't anywhere near them.
Instead, she brought Ryuji to the artificial rock garden of the Shiranui dojo, leaving even Ryuji himself confused about what she was planning to do.
However, once they arrived, Mai released Ryuji's hand, took a deep breath, lightly pressed her rosy lips against his, and then quickly crouched down.
One hand grabbed onto Ryuji's pants as she began undoing his belt, while speaking softly:
"Mm… tonight I still have to sleep together with Mom… so we still can't do anything further…"
"But I know you've been holding back for a long time already, Ryuji, so…"
And so, she grasped Ryuji's hardening cock. With flushed cheeks, Mai struck out her tongue and looked up at the gradually rising cock with eyes full of anticipation.
Then, once it fully revealed its imposing shape, she happily leaned in and licked it.
