Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 163: Stay alive

Chapter 163: Stay alive

"Tamazuki..."

Even Rimuru didn't expect that Shizu would confess at this moment, or rather, wasn't this a Flag? Wasn't this a Flag where Shizu was confirmed to die? He looked nervously at Tamazuki, but it was hard to gauge his expression when his bangs covered his expression.

"...Uncle, can I leave the rest to you? I will check her condition first." This chapter is updated by

"Okay, leave the rest to me." Rimuru nodded and decided to leave everything to Tamazuki first. Even though the damage was minimalized by Tamazuki, some panic was inevitable as the power of Ifrit was enough to burn this village to ash. It was fortunate that Tamazuki was there and also learned flame manipulation. Nevertheless, too many things happened, and he knew that he needed to do something, especially in the matter of support.

Moreover, Rimuru also wanted to know about Shizu's condition, so after he called Rigurudo, he went after Tamazuki.

Kaval, Gido, and Ellen also followed, but Tamazuki stopped them since they didn't know anything, and it would disrupt him instead.

"Inugami..." Ellen wanted to say something, but she held it.

After all, Shizu's confession was almost heard by everyone.

Ellen was an elf, and with her ears, how could she miss it?

However, this matter was small compared to Shizu's condition.

Tamazuki brought Shizu to the best tent where Rimuru was living and then put her on the bed.

[Report. Shizue Izawa's condition has been stabilized after you made her body young]

Personal time manipulation.

It was the ability that he learned from Helga in the world of Gakusen. Previously, it could only affect his age and his inner time, but with the help of [Great Sage] and "Seisenjutsu Talent," he could develop it so that he could also affect the time of others.

That way, he made Shizu's age younger, so her weakened condition was erased, and her body was as good as when she was young. However, it might be hard to say her condition was as good as before since now; she didn't have Ifrit on her body.

In the eyes of Shizu, Ifrit's existence might be like a curse, but it was also the one who gave her power.

In other words, the reason why Shizu could still stay alive until now was Ifrit.

Without Ifrit, she would be dying.

Watching her, who slept soundly on the bed, he wondered what he should do. For him, getting rewards from the women was enough, but he realized that each of those heroines had their own problems, and this problem also affected him.

It was like Claudia before, who wished to die and almost made him wage war on the entire world.

Leaving Claudia might be okay, abandoning her and letting her die, especially when he didn't really have that strong feeling toward her, yet maybe, once again, he realized that he was really too kind-hearted.

It was the same case with Shizu, who was sleeping in front of him.

Shizu was already at an advanced age, and even if he made her body younger, it was already at the limit.

In the end, a human was a human.

Their lifespan was limited, no matter how he tried to make her younger.

"You really make a lot of trouble for me."

He lightly touched her bangs helplessly, but at this moment, he didn't give up.

Was there any other way?

[Affirmative. You can wait for her to pass away and reincarnate her by using life and death magic]

"..."

He let out a sigh. 'Great Sage, next time, don't ever suggest such a method.'

[Affirmative]

Maybe, it realized and felt the feeling of its host that it agreed without saying anything.

He knew that [Great Sage] wasn't wrong, and it was normal to suggest something like that as it was only born late without knowing what his bottom limit was. [Great Sage] didn't know right and wrong, and instead of getting angry, he should teach it.

Frankly, such a method was possible, and if [Great Sage] told him so, then a life and death magic existed, and he could learn it without any problem, but if he waited until Shizu died, then reincarnate her, he felt that something might change inside him. He felt that his existence might become hideous and that he couldn't bear it anymore. He might be a villain and a scoundrel, but he still had a bottom line.

[Affirmative. Everything has been recorded for future reference]

Good.

Tamazuki stared at Shizu and knew that she only wished to become a human, so that's what he was going to do.

If any method that he could think of was impossible, then he would create a new one or search for a method in another world.

It might be impossible for others, but not for him.

He was going to make her stay alive, accompany him, and become part of his harem. He was selfish for doing this, but wasn't she even more selfish for confessing to him at the end of her life?

So, don't blame him for being selfish and wanting her to stay alive.

Staring at her sleeping face, he saw his hand was held by her subconsciously. As for whether it was a coincidence or any other, he wasn't sure, but for now, he just stayed there and accompanied her.

If she is going to stay alive, then what do you think he should do?

Is there an anime or something that can make a human become immortal?

If so, can you make a suggestion for me?
