New Company

A few seconds later everything finally calmed down. The surrounding people were very interested and concerned about the young man's condition.

"COUGH COUGH"

Suzetsu appeared in a sorry state. His clothes barely recognizable, his hair returned to its original state, bloodied skin and his breathing was very heavy. He looks really screwed up.

[[You were a lucky brat, that guy was much more powerful than you]] - Kirisu said in a slightly worried tone.

[[That bastard managed to escape, he's a real cockroach. But it doesn't matter, the next time I see him I won't let him go… and as for the other man, I don't want to admit it but luckily that guy left or it would be too complicated]]

[[Better stop talking and worry about yourself, haven't you seen yourself?]]

[[…]] - Finally he realized his situation and a bitter smile formed on his lips, indeed he felt pain but nothing too strong.

"You ... thanks for helping us" -Coriana approached as she leaned in, her face had an apologetic tone seeing the young man's state. Gandoma, Misteeta, and Kuisha also approached while bowing in thanks.

"Don't worry, I got closer because I had some problems with that cockroach, the next one will not be so easy ... COUGH COUGH" -answered Suzetsu but after he started coughing up blood.

"Let me help you" - Kuisha took out some medicines but Suzu shook his head.

He replied - "there is no need" - with a smile. Venelana had sent him some Phoenix tears in case of gravity, but he still didn't want to waste them. He also wanted to test the natural recovery of his body.

"But ..."

Suzetsu took off his clothes leaving only the underpants, then used simple magic to form water and gave herself a wash. Then he just put on a white kimono. If it weren't for the fact that he was a bit pale and a few scars anyone would think he was perfect.

'Shameless…' -Kuisha thought as she turned around, but her eyes drifted to the back of the young man - 'How can he be so perfect?'

Coriana was much bolder, she was stuck looking at Suzu's perfect body, it seemed as if she was about to bleed her nose.

At a distance, the smallest kept helping her brother to recover but when she realized the situation on the other side she simply forgot to attend to him ... the other girl was not very different, first, she was perplexed by the previous situation, even a little upset, but all of that went to hell as her heart pounded.

'not bad, my body has improved in the recovery after improving my strength' - Suzetsu thought happily as he felt the scars were closing.

It wasn't that Suzu was an exhibitionist, he just didn't care about these little things. He didn't even notice the blush of the women. Of course, the young man's mind was focused on his injuries and the 2 women at a distance and Zephyrdor's half-dead man. He had turned his back on them leaving their defenses uncovered to see how they would act, he wanted to see their reactions but they did not move nor did they have any killing intent, quite the opposite ...

"Okay, what are you going to do with those guys?"- Suzetsu finally asked, ending the silence in the area as he pointed to the 10 half-dead men.

"... I'll take them" - Latia replied after sighing.

The two women and Zephyrdor approached. Latia stood next to the 10 dogs and just shook her head, then turned around and looked directly at Suzetsu - "I'll see you again."

"See you ... see you soon" - Iryuka also said goodbye with his face that already looked like a tomato.

Finally, Suzetsu was left with the other 4, and then they moved to another place that had some security.

...….

"mmm So that's how it happened" - Suzetsu said after hearing the story of the others.

Coriana considered herself to be Misteeta's older sister. Their relationship is for several years when they met and they learned that they were both from extinct families, Coriana was basically his protector until they decided that they should train harder not to feel belittled by the other high-class demons, that's how they came to this Forest.

Kuisha was a proud warrior and she wanted to get away from the Abaddon family after learning about some shady moves from her Extra-Demon family.

Gandoma was different. He was simply looking for challenges to further develop the skills of his proud Balam family.

Everyone formed a group when they met fighting the beasts, as they had similar ideas, also they all had analytical capacity so they understood a little the characters of the rest. But it didn't last long.

On a common beast-hunting day, Diodora and Zephyrdor's pair appeared. They wanted to associate to go in search of the fruit <peach> that was, according to them, about to ripen but was being strongly defended by high-level beasts.

Gandoma didn't think too much about it, he already knew the two men in some upper-class youth meetings so he never thought they would act so treacherous. Only Kuisha and Coriana looked at each other with some concern after noticing some annoyed looks.

Indeed, it did not take long, and when they passed through a certain area an ambush of the ten lackeys who used the powerful bombs awaited them. The rest is history.

...….

While listening to the story, Suzu sat cross-legged to continue recovering, he used some common medicine since he did not want to waste Phoenix's tears, he left them for a more important moment.

The others were not in very good condition either so they also dedicated themselves to recovering. This lasted for some time until everyone stood up, after all the place was still dangerous and they cannot be without proper shelter.

"Since you don't have shelter, how about going to mine? After being in good condition we will see what to do "

Of course, no one had objections, the group went at medium speed towards Suzetsu place, until they reached a beautiful place surrounded by waterfalls.

"This way" -the young man finally said as he took a great leap, reaching the entrance of his cave.

The group looked curiously, the girls gave an amused smile, and then they all flew in Suzu's direction.

Upon reaching the place, everyone looked a little surprised by the cave. Simple, but perfectly tidy, and a great bed that stood out. Also on the wall are some pictures of Suzu's loved ones that aroused great curiosity, especially in the girls.

"They are Rías, Grayfia, Sona, Seekvaira, Yasaka, Kunou, and Venelana" -Suzetsu noticed the reactions so they presented them while he gave a loving smile.

"... I see"

Then Suzetsu enlarged the cave so that there was enough space for the group.

So everyone returned to focus on recovering from the injuries.

The first to stand up was Suzetsu who without wasting time went in search of some beasts to prepare food.

...…

On one side of the river was Suzu cooking the meat of the beasts. In the time that he has been training he has notably improved his culinary art, he made it one of his goals to surprise the girls when they meet again.

He also found himself chatting with Kirisu about the group that was in the cave. He had some interesting ideas, although they also need to evaluate them a bit more. It was not as if he trusted them completely, but rather that he trusted his instincts, in his eyes that allowed seeing beyond the normal and in the opinion of the Juubi.

"... That smells good" - Kuisha was the first to approach.

She was a bit in awe of the beautiful scenery. The beautiful river, the waterfall, and Suzetsu, who is wearing a white kimono and a red cooking apron that had some tomoes on it, it was all a beautiful scene as he cooked on a large grill surrounded by multiple pieces of meat. There were 3 beasts waiting to be cooked, a large snake, a wild boar, and a cow.
