"Speaking of which, it's not just Gabriel I'm curious about. I'm quite intrigued by Shin-kun as well."
On the way to the bath with Shin, Tohru suddenly cast a curious glance at him.
"I originally thought Shin-kun was just an ordinary human... but the last time I secretly observed his body, I noticed that it was filled with a terrifying power."
As a dragon, Tohru possesses many strange abilities, some of which are considered pure magic by ordinary people—for example, she actually has the ability to see through objects.
Clearly, during this period, Tohru has used her X-ray vision and other abilities to secretly observe Shin's entire body more than once.
At first, it was just the behaviour of an obsessive fan, but after observing him several times, Tohru began to realize that Shin's body seemed to contain an astonishing amount of power.
As a dragon, she naturally looks down on humans. Whether in terms of physical strength or magical abilities, humans are far inferior to her.
Although Shin drew the Divine Sword and rescued Tohru, filling her with gratitude and affection, Tohru initially still viewed him as a weak human.
But now, Tohru feels that this might not be the case—Shin's body harbors a power even more terrifying than her own, something that even her father might not match.
"Are you curious?" Shin smiled at Tohru. He had long noticed her strange glances scanning his body but hadn't paid much attention to it.
After all, Tohru meant no harm. She seemed to be quite fond of his body, so he let her look as she pleased—it wasn't like she was actually stripping him naked.
However, he hadn't expected Tohru to bring this up only now. He thought she would have realized long ago that his body was extraordinary.
Thinking about it now, perhaps Tohru hadn't considered it at first. It wasn't until she was utterly defeated by Shin in bed that she realized his physical prowess was anything but ordinary.
"I am indeed curious. Just how strong are you, Shin-kun?"
Tohru nodded, her face filled with interest. As a dragon, Tohru has a somewhat combative instinct, though she has restrained it while serving as Shin's maid.
Now that she knows her master possesses strength surpassing her own, she feels a bit of excitement brewing.
"...Alright, since we haven't bathed yet, it's a good time to stretch a bit and work up a sweat before washing up."
Shin, having reached the bathroom door, placed his clothes in the laundry basket and smiled at Tohru.
"How about it? Want to give it a try? Though Earth might not withstand the impact, so if we're going to fight, we'll have to go to space."
This invitation wasn't for the kind of physical engagement they had earlier, but for an actual battle. Although Tohru's strength is nothing compared to Shin's, it would still be a good warm-up.
After all, Tohru possesses the power to destroy civilizations on the planet's surface.
"Sure!"
Tohru was eager, her tail wagging a few times behind her, her expression growing more excited.
Even if Shin were just an ordinary human, Tohru would still serve him diligently. But if Shin is a strong warrior, Tohru would be even more thrilled.
As a dragon, a violent streak runs through her blood. Being overpowered by someone she loves could be considered a form of play.
"Then let's go."
Shin grabbed Tohru's hand, looked up at the night sky outside the window, and used instant transmission.
If he doesn't use "ki" to lock onto a location, Shin's instant transmission can only take him to places within his line of sight, and there's a risk of materializing inside objects.
But if he's teleporting to the vastness of space, there's no danger.
In the next moment, Shin and Tohru's bodies appeared in space, far from Earth—the blue planet now just a small sphere that could be blocked by a single hand.
Shin has the ability to conceal his presence, and Tohru can confuse perceptions, so they aren't worried about being detected by satellites or the like.
A combative smile appeared on Tohru's face as her body suddenly expanded, transforming into the green dragon Shin had first met, her eyes filled with a fierce, violent glow.
...
The outcome of the battle was a foregone conclusion. Although Tohru possesses the power to incinerate civilizations, she is far from matching Shin's ability to destroy planets with ease.
However, as a warm-up, the goal was achieved. Facing Tohru, Shin could exert a bit of strength without worrying about accidentally killing her.
"That hurt... Shin-kun's strength really surprised me."
Back home, after bathing with Shin, Tohru rubbed her shoulder—it still ached from the punch Shin had landed in space.
"I held back; it shouldn't still hurt, right?"
Shin, feeling refreshed, stepped out of the bathroom and looked puzzled at Tohru, who was rubbing her shoulder.
After their battle in space, they had engaged in another kind of combat on the way back to the bath—at that time, Tohru hadn't seemed to be in much pain.
"It really does hurt."
Tohru's body seemed somewhat weak; two consecutive battles of different styles had taken a toll even on her dragon physique.
But soon, Tohru's next words made Shin understand her intention:
"How about you let me use that strange maid outfit from yesterday again?"
Shin couldn't help but laugh—it turned out Tohru wanted to use the maid outfit's stand ability to recover some stamina, preparing for another round tonight.
In Tohru's mind, if she didn't have the energy tonight, Shin might be taken by someone else, so she had to participate every night.
She's really gotten addicted.
...
Late at night, after a busy period, Shin, holding Irisviel clinging to him, prepared to enter the dream world once more.
However, considering the recent situation in the mission worlds, Shin worried that there might not be much he could do today.
On one hand, in the Dragon Ball world, Bardock is still calling for the Saiyans to return to Planet Vegeta and trying to lure the Ginyu Force, which will take a few days.
On the other hand, in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Stories Chronicle, the Security Force Police is rushing to complete the control console for the Sky Striker AA-sZEUS, which will also take a few days.
Meanwhile, the main quests in the JOJO and TYPE-MOON worlds are still being generated and are inaccessible.
It seems the only option is to spend some time training in the Dragon Ball world.
With this thought, Shin immersed himself in the "Infinite Terror VR Game" mission world selection interface.
And then he immediately noticed that the mission world options seemed to have changed since his last visit.
[Respected Zuke, please select the mission world to enter: 1. "Dragon Ball" (time not adjusted); 2. "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure" (main quest generating); 3. "The Holy Round Table Domain" (time not adjusted)]
[Respected Zuke, your special mission world is: 1. "Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Stories Chronicles" (refresh times today: 1)]
[Respected Zuke, your remaining play times for today: 2]
"...Huh? The Sacred Round Table Domain?"
The name of the mission world, originally "TYPE-MOON," had suddenly changed, leaving Shin momentarily stunned.
