Reincarnated in sekirei

( Yuuki's POV )

Ranko: Hey Yuuki, I heard you ran into another world traveler recently.

Yuuki: Yes, I had to get serious to go against him, I suspect that he was someone valuable to the enemy, he was the only one they had successfully extracted from danger.

Ranko: hah You're just saying that so casually, you're the same as always, hey, are you busy now?

Yuuki: I'm going on another trip soon, but I have some time before that.

Ranko: Then come with me, this won't take long.

Ranko told me to follow her without giving many details and I obeyed, she took me to our training grounds so I assumed she wanted to show me the results of her training.

Ranko: You said that guy was one of the most powerful members of the Crimson Ravens.

Yuuki: pretty sure, if they had more fighters at the same level as him, they would have thrown them at me, they clearly don't care what happens to that world.

Ranko: That's good, you can tell me how well I measure up against them, Asterius!

Rank llamo a su Persona, un gigante con una cabeza de toro, y inicio un fusión con el espíritu que ahora era varias veces más fuerte gracias al trabajo de nuestra afinadora de espíritus Roderika.

The fusion changed her outfit to a metal bra and a skirt made of fire cloth, with broken horns on her head and a metal forehead protection, silver knuckle dusters and chains around her arms, her power was overflowing into the environment increasing the temperature around us, I used Touki and Hollowfication to increase my physical power and I brace myself for Ranko's blow.

Ranko's fist was surrounded by a powerful flame, she launch herself towards me and I received her attack by crossing my arms, the impact was shocking but I stood firm.

Yuuki: Well, but this would only help you against Red in his first form.

After stopping her attack, Ranko clicked her tongue and jumped back to her starting position.

Ranko: Suzaku! Izanagi!

Ranko summoned two more Personas and she proceeded to fuse them with her body, wings of fire appeared on her back and she wore a long black coat, She repeated the attack from before and I reached for my hands again but when the attack was close my instincts screamed danger, I activated my dragon armor around my arms but when Ranko's attack hit the armor was easily broken, This way she could hold her own and win a battle against Red or someone of his level.

I was intrigued but before I could congratulate Ranko, she fell back and her transformation deactivated, she immediately sat down on the ground and took a couple of deep breaths.

Yuuki: Impressive, but it seems that maintaining control of the function with multiple Personas is a problem, You should ask Roderika and Lisanna for advice, her takeover magic is similar to your fusion technique, I also think practicing Touki could help, I could also create a sacred gear that would help you.

Ranko: Hehe, now you're acting like a sensei to me. Aren't you at least a little upset with me?

Yuuki: Uh? Why would I be upset with you?

Ranko: If I had been faster at the temple, we wouldn't have lost you that day.

Yuuki: That wasn't your fault, and good things came from that accident, so don't sweat the small things.

Ranko: I knew you were going to say something like that.

Yuuki: I'm not surprised, I'm a simple man.

Ranko: whatever you say, but I promised myself that would never happen again, I'm going to reach out and fight by your side when things get tough.

Ranko showed her determination and it was clear to me that she was very serious, she stood up from the ground and extended her fist towards me with a smile, I returned the gesture, and we fist-bumped like brothers in arms.

Yuuki: That's reassuring. I'll be counting on you, partner.

After bumping fists Ranko put on an even bigger smile and she put her hands on my shoulders, suddenly she pulled me close and planted a deep kiss on my lips, I was surprised by that but I was speechless with what happened next, wings of light spread on her back and a Sekirei mark with the number 69 appeared on her shoulder.

Yuuki: You, when you went through the transformation.

Ranko: This is how serious I am, partner~ We'll be fighting together through thick and thin.

Ranko surprised me with her confection and before I could speak she turned around and started walking away but that walk quickly turned into a sprint, It seems she was more embarrassed than she wanted to admit.

/////////////////////////

After the recent increase in the queens of Babylon, I decided to visit Tokyo, in the world of young demons, I came with a small group, Ikaros and Rossweisse acting as my bodyguards, and from my Sekireis were Ranko, Akitsu, Koneko, and Astraea.

The first thing we did was walk around the city, collect souvenirs for the girls who couldn't join us, and in the end we ended up at a fast food restaurant.

Ranko: Hey, I thought we were on a mission, we're just acting like tourists.

Yuuki: Aren't you having fun?

Ranko: Idiot, that's not what I'm saying.

Yuuki: We have no way of contacting the Yokai faction, since this was Odin's advice, I thought he would have arranged a meeting, but it seems that's not the case.

Rossweisse: I apologize for that, he can act confusing at times.

Yuuki: Don't worry, I have my own way of finding the Yokai faccion.

Ranko: Seriously, why didn't you do that from the start?

Yuuki: I didn't want to show up unannounced, that's rude.

I was an expert in detecting supernatural energies and during our walk I found several places that could be the entrance to the Yokai territories, and after finishing our meal we paid a few visits to those places.
