The sound of peaceful breathing sounded in the room.

Kuroha affectionately looked at the girl sleeping close to him. After losing their virginity and ejaculating inside of her, Kuroha was of course still full of energy. Despite that, they didn't continue their lovemaking because, from what he knew, after the first time, the girl should be particularly tender down here for a few days. As such, during this period of time, penetration shouldn't be done.

Still, as Minegata told him, for boys, the physical aspect of lovemaking was the most important, but for girls, the psychological satisfaction was paramount. There were many ways to make a girl happy and satisfied.

When Kuroha finished, the first thing he did was to hold her in his arm for a few minutes. This action while seemingly inconsequential was in fact very important in order to not make the girl feel like she lost all value once the act of sex was finished. Of course, it was only important if you wanted a long relationship.

After that, he took her in a princess carry and went toward her bathroom. There, while she was completely languid and drowsy, he took care of everything and bathed her.

After the bath, he dried her hair, put her in her pajamas and tucked her in her bed. He had also previously changed the cover of the bed and carefully cut the part where her virgin blood feel. He didn't know why, but it seemed that some girls liked to keep it.

It didn't take long for her to fall in deep blissful sleep. While Kuroha stayed by her side and looked at her. All in all, the aftercare provided by Kuroha was basically perfect.

Now Kuroha had a problem. What should he do?

From what the book said, they should sleep in each other's arms before waking up in the morning. But she laid the problem. No, the problems.

Firstly, Momo didn't live alone. During their lovemaking, he already remarked a third heartbeat in the vicinity, close to the door. If he waited until morning, the result might be disastrous.

The second problem was a little more complex. But at the same time more straightforward.

He couldn't sleep.

It was that simple. He couldn't sleep. He didn't know if he should stay or leave. After all, staying in a girl room while she sleeps and looking at her face all night was more than a little creepy.

Finally, he sighed, it seemed like he had to talk to her. Technically, Kuroha couldn't distinguish people simply by their heartbeat. But it was different when it was for his marks. Kuroha could feel all his marks.

In this house, only three people had his marks on them. Momo, Suzuka, and for some weird reason, Momo's mother.

He didn't think that Momo's mother would waste her time behind her daughter's door. As such it was easy to know who it was.

(Well, let's meet her. Anyways, I must at least ask her what this tradition Momo told me about.)

The moment he thought so, he took a paper and a pen, before writing a message in case Momo woke up while he was absent. Then he simply vanished.

A few minutes ago, in the very large martial room of the Yaoyorozu families, the sound of breathing could be heard.

"*inhale* *exhale*"

On one of the tatami, a young woman with seemingly short black hair was seated in seiza, her eyes closed.

Next to her, on her right, a bamboo sword, more precisely, a Shinai could be seen laying down. On her left, was a black helmet. Finally, she was wearing a hakama. All in all, it was clear that she was a Kenshi or more commonly called Kendoka.

The young woman, Hiragi Suzuka was trying to keep her heart and mind calm by entering a state of void, where all thought becomes nil and one could use the maximum of their abilities. Basically, it was a form of meditation.

For a genius such as Suzuka, entering this state of mind was as easy as breathing. In fact, in order to use her quirk to its full potential, you could say that it was a necessity. But, right now, something that she should have easily been able to do completely eluded her.

Of course, she knew why. After all, she was present while IT happened. Remembering this she couldn't help but blush. She also couldn't help but scold her master about how mean and shameless she was.

She knew her master would act boldly when she finally gave her the choice, but she didn't think it would be so soon. Just remembering the sound in the room makes her feel like she would die of shame. After all, despite all her abilities, Suzuka was a blank sheet when it comes to relationships. But, she wasn't naive enough to not understand what was happening.

After that, she couldn't help but flee and come here to calm herself down. She needed to think of her future. It was when,

"Yo!"

*Swish*

Her reactions were immediate, her eyes lost her focus as her body moved completely on instinct. Her right hand snatched the sword next to her, while she did a spin and stood up at the same time. Finally, by the time the voice finished, her shinai was already next to his neck. It was so fast that anyone else would have failed to react.

Thankfully, Kuroha wasn't anyone.

Even though he knew a simple Shinai couldn't kill him, having his neck crushed wasn't a good feeling. As such, he simply took a slight step back and narrowly avoided the sword.

He couldn't help but praise her. That woman was really dangerous. If she had added her quirk, he wasn't sure he would have been able to avoid it.

After avoiding the sword, he raised his hand in a sign of surrender and said,

"Don't continue fighting, it's me. I guess I shouldn't have startled you like that."

Suzuka simply sighed before lowering her Shinai. She also knew that she overreacted. Only Kuroha could teleport in this house. Anyone else would simply be sent to another place or outright get killed by their own quirk. Thanks to the mistress of the family, attacking or infiltrating the house was basically impossible.

She spoke sullenly,

"What do you want?"

"Me? Nothing. It's just that I must go and I didn't want to let Momo wake up alone."

"Youuuu!! DO YOU KNOW NO SHAME?"

Kuroha tilted his head in wonder at this question, before raising an eyebrow

"Shame? Should a servant who was eavesdropping on her master first-time use terms such as Shame?"

"What…?"

Suzuka was dumbfounded. Her mouth flapping like that of a fish as she tried to explain herself. But, she didn't know-how.

(Oops. I did it again.)

Kuroha's bad habit of using his sharp tongue and giving critical hits reared its ugly head. Deciding to stop he raised his hand and said,

"Look, I am not here to insult you. I have more important things to do. Momo talked to me about some sort of tradition. She also asked me that I needed to come to you if I wanted more information. Now I am listening."

Suzuka closed her mouth before looking at Kuroha with a complicated light in her eyes then she said,

"Three days."

"Three days?"

"Yes, I want you to give three days. In three days, at the same time, teleport to my location. We will fight. If I win I will tell you nothing. It would simply mean that you aren't qualified. But if you win. You'll get everything."

Kuroha frowned. Not at the proposition of fighting. Right now, he wanted to fight more. UA could not satisfy him. Someone like Suzuka was perfect. It was the way she phrased her conditions. Only someone stupid or a shonen protagonist accepted a contract without even understanding all the underlying meanings. As such,

"Sorry, but I decline."
