A/N(2024-01-04): Alright!~
And while I'm waiting for the bank to announce the final results, I've decided to prepare a new chapter. Yup, when one sharpens the blade by learning C#, you have to find someway to distract yourself...
So, it's a matter of time when I could make VNs (yup, but for now, aiming for the smaller goals like making a text-based battle game which is still WIP)
Either way...
Unfortunately, I would need to divide the current chapter into a couple of parts.
So, yeah, today I'm adding part 1, and part 2 is still in progress.
Anyway,
As always,
Enjoy!~
________________________________

A day has passed since the mysterious entity assaulted Yagami.
Even if Iori is in better shape than yesterday and almost acting the same as before the incident, Kyo keeps an eye on him whenever he can.
More so, the brunette cannot rest until he takes matters into his own hands and visits one abandoned storage where all his remaining clones live.
But for now, he waits until Iori falls asleep and hopes he won’t get caught trying to sneak out.
Some time has passed. It is the middle of the night.
All the clones are sleeping peacefully under the warm futon.
After all, their adored leader is watching them over tonight on his throne, which is at the end of the storage so that he can check on everyone without needing to leave his comfortable seat.
By far, nothing has disturbed such a serene night. Not even a tiny mouse dares to run.
But for now, one tanned brunette’s, covered in a snow-white bandage, hands are itching for the action. It’s too boring!
If it wasn’t for the snow and too cold outside, he would leave and seek anyone who may be a suitable time killer for him, even if it’s for a few minutes.
Unfortunately, only fools want to catch a cold or any other nasty disease in such weather.
However, a strong feeling in his guts insists that something interesting may happen soon. It has to. After all, it never betrayed him before.
But for now, Kusanagi relaxes with one leg thrown over his lap, rests his head on his palm, and yawns as wide as a large feline.
After he opens his glowing crimson eyes, he cracks a smile and speaks up in a sleepy tone. “Come out, come out, wherever you are. How long ya gonna keep me waiting?~”
Suddenly, he shakes his head and shrugs.
As he rubs his arms, he murmurs. “Maybe I need to grab more heaters or warm clothes for the boys. Yeah… Tomorrow is gonna be a busy day~”
In the end, he leans to the side and picks up a bottle of the finest brand of whiskey from the box beside his throne.
A half-hour passes by. Finally, the brunette has fallen asleep with his arms crossed and his head thrown back.
However, thanks to the loud banging on the metal door, his sleepiness is gone instantly.
As a few replicas of Kyo lazily lift their heads, Kusanagi addresses them in a chill voice. “It’s just a stray animal. Go back to sleep, okay?”
However, after a several seconds, a loud banging continues.
When Kusanagi lifts his eyes, he orders one of the clones. “Sakura, go check who is asking for the problems.”
“Fine…” the clone in purple replies in a half-sleepy voice and gets up, no matter how much he prefers staying under the warm embrace of the futon.
When he makes his way to the door, he asks. “Who is it?”
“It’s me - Kyo. I only came to talk with your leader. So, is he there? Or do you want me to leave a message for him?” The voice behind the door asks politely.
Suddenly, Sakura widens his eyes and turns his head. “Big Bro, it’s original! What should we do?”
Meanwhile, ‘Nagi cracks a smile and narrows his gaze. “What do you mean, what to do? Of course, we’re gonna greet him! So, how long you’ll stand like being kissed? Let it him in.”
The replica in purple only lowers his gaze and doesn’t object to Kusanagi. Lastly, he removes the lock and opens the door.
Most of the clones are in awe as if a living ghost is in front of them.
However, the tanned brunette only chuckles and observes with amusement the Kusanagi heir brushing off the snow from himself but keeping a serious look on his face.
While ‘Nagi cozily sits on his throne, he mockingly addresses his guest. “Why would you look at that? How’s the weather outside? It must be a lovely one, eh? Come on in, and we’ll get you warm, princess.”
A second later, he grinds his teeth and frowns. “Oi, ya gonna just stand there? Close the damn door and stop letting the draft in! ‘Cos then I gonna catch a cold and die, you fucking selfish moron!”
Meanwhile, Kyo only closes his eyes and enters, while one clone immediately closes the door and turns on the light switch.
As the entire storage lightens up by the orange light, Kusanagi asks. “Don’t just stand there? I ain’t gonna bite you. Unless you get on my nerves. Then I would chop you into pieces and feed you to the pigs.”
While Kyo keeps a serious look on his face and approaches ‘Nagi, he looks on sides time from time at his replicas, who don’t trust him and move aside.
But for now, ‘Nagi raises his eyebrow while resting his chin on his fist. “What’s wrong? You didn’t come all this way to stare at me like you ate some shit, did you?”
“You have gone too far this time. However, I’ll consider sparing you if you apologize to me for hurting Yagami and promise me you will stay away from him.” The Kusanagi heir explains calmly.
Meanwhile, the tanned brunette covers his mouth and snorts.
Suddenly, the replica in brown frowns and shields with one arm the precious leader. “Oi, you better watch your mouth! Remember to whom you’re talking.”
“That’s right! It was the Red Demon who assaulted Big Bro first. So, we had to protect him from that bastard and show him a lesson about what happens if he attacks the wrong person.” The clone in blue indignantly adds while repeating his brother’s moves.
Meanwhile, Kusanagi only keeps a smug face and interrupts them. “Hoki, Mero! Enough.”
When he gets the twins’ attention, his face changes to a serious one. “You two, and anyone else - do not interface. I’ll take care of him. You all just watch, got it?”
Lastly, these two clones only nod and step back while staying close to Kusanagi’s sides.
After a brief pause, the tanned brunette stands up and rests his hands on his waist. “Apologize to you? When did a not feathered little rooster like you grew so bold to speak like this to his superiors? You are nothing but an inferior breed. Either way…”
Meanwhile, Kyo only patiently listens and refuses to give in a cheap provocation.
After all, it’s better to refrain from unnecessary violence for now and let ‘Nagi speak. Or so the brunette decides.
When Kusanagi stands close to his new prey, he thrusts his chest forward to touch his one and looks down at him. “Listen up. What I do with him shouldn’t concern my boys or you. So, why do you care about him so much? Who are you? Is he your boyfriend or something? Aren’t you supposed to hate his clan and pray for his downfall like the rest of you should?”
As he gently slaps Kyo’s cheek, he grins like a Cheshire Cat while studying the brunette. “Hey, a woman should not stick into men’s business. So, why don’t you let us settle down like adults, baby face?”
After the Kusanagi heir closes his eyes, he brushes off ‘Nagi’s palm.
When Kyo opens his amber eyes, he replies in a strict tone while trying to remain as patient as possible. “I won’t repeat twice - leave Yagami out of this.”
Yet, the tanned brunette only comments. “Oh~ Look who is speaking.”
When he places his palm on his chest, he proudly explains. “Hey, ever since your oh-so-precious husband left a huge scar on me I can’t just leave him as nothing happened without taking any responsibility. You see, it’s something very personal between us and I can’t just let it slip through my fingers. Not until he is under my foot and I’ll crush his beating heart in front of his pathetic little face.”
But for now, Kyo lowers his head and clenches his hands into fists.
“Aww, what’s wrong?~ Did I make ya cry? Go on and cry like that one oversensitive fool!” Kusanagi teases him.
Suddenly, Kyo launches a powerful punch into the tanned brunette’s face.
As Kusanagi rubs the running blood from his nose by using his sleeve, Hoki growls. “You son of the bi-!”
However, before he charges at Kyo, ‘Nagi’s voice stops him. “Hoki, didn’t I tell you all earlier? Do not interface.”
“But he hurt you, Big Bro!” the replica in brown objects.
“Shush… What did I say?” Kusanagi turns his head and gives an icy glare.
After this, none of the clones dare move and only silently observe their adored oldest sibling.
Meanwhile, Kyo straightens his back and keeps a calm stance.
Suddenly, ‘Nagi grabs his opponent by his jacket and barks like a feral animal. “Hey, you think you can mock me?! I’ll make a piece of shit like you into our doormat, and you’ll beg to lick my shoes ‘til they shine!”
However, the Kusanagi only narrows his gaze and judgmentally stares at the beast, who grinds his teeth.
“DON’T MAKE FUN OF ME!” the dark brunette yells at the top of his lungs.
After Kyo tightly grips the arm that holds him and his neck, ‘Nagi feels the rising heat on these parts.
“Let me go. Otherwise, you won’t leave the hospital for a while.” The brunette warns.
However, Kusanagi only removes his hand and gives him a mocking look. “As if you’ll do this. You are just a weak creature without a will. A freak and mistake of god as your dear prototype.”
When Kyo releases the tanned brunette, he gives him a piercing look. “If you weren’t someone important and dear to these clones, I would have beaten a living shit out of you until you won’t be able to get up. But now, I can’t just leave them without someone looking after them.”
After a brief pause, the Kusanagi heir adds. “Listen, how about we’ll do it tomorrow at the same old building site where you brought me last time? If I win, you’ll leave Yagami alone.”
Surely, such an offer peeks ‘Nagi’s curiosity. Yet, he interrupts his speech and raises his eyebrow. “Why can’t we do it now? Or you’re afraid of taking more than you swallow? You know, it won’t change the inevitable~ So, ya better prepare to bring someone with you to gather your scattered ashes.”
Yet, the brunette doesn’t get confused and keeps his poker face. “Don’t forget - tomorrow, at the same time as today, got it?”
When ‘Nagi looks around and announces to all the clones. “You heard him, boys? Tomorrow, I gonna beat the original’s ass! So, you better start preparing a big feast.”
After such a speech, all the replicas of Kyo chant Kusanagi’s name and cheer for him.
Soon, Kusanagi raises his hand and silences all the clones immediately.
As the tanned brunette ignites his palm with the same flame that dances in his eyes, he addresses his opponent. “You better do not disappoint me.”
When Kyo repeats the same movement, he backfires. “Same goes for you. However, be careful or else you may get burned.”
In the end, as both lower their arms, the bright orange flames immediately perish. And thus, the Kusanagi heir understands that despite defeating this dark entity in the past, he shouldn’t take him lightly.
Nevertheless, Kyo worries more about whether Iori will catch him this time and tag along or persist that he faces ‘Nagi again on his own.
Some time has passed.
After the Kusanagi heir returns home, he undresses and sneaks into the bedroom without waking up his partner.
However, when he sits on the edge of the bed, he gets startled by Iori’s voice. “Where have you been wandering around all this time?”
As the brunette turns his head, he notices the irritated redhead lying on his side.
When Kyo softens his gaze, he explains. “Sorry if I wake you up. I just went to the bathroom.”
Meanwhile, Yagami sits and pats Kyo’s arms up to his cheeks.
Such a gesture surprises the brunette, but he doesn’t mind Iori inspecting him.
The redhead narrows his gaze, holding his partner’s cheeks. “You’re cold. I’ll ask you again - where have you been? … Don’t tell me you went after that cheap copy. Haven’t you learned anything from the previous times?”
“He only took an advantage of me because he back-stabbed me. This time, I came to his lair on my own and gave him a small warning. However, he refused to listen to me. So, I would need to come back tomorrow to explain to him in the only language he understands.” The brunette explains.
Meanwhile, Iori only sighs and stretches Kyo’s cheeks. “You are truly a stupid, reckless cat.”
When he slides down his hands on the Kusanagi’s arms, he adds. “If I knew that you were going after him, I would have stopped you.”
After a brief pause, he shakes his head and continues without removing his eyes from his partner. “Tomorrow, you will show me where he is.”
“Not under my watch. You are not allowed to throw your life at risk.” The brunette backfires.
Yagami only cracks a smile. “It’s that fool who begs for his death. So, I’ll be kind and grant his wish.”
At that moment, Kyo understands that he’ll convince the wind not to blow sooner than over-talk his stubborn partner.
Besides, even if Iori is bedridden, he would still crawl to face anyone who gives even a single wrong look to the Kusanagi, no matter how many times he is stopped.
In the end, he closes his eyes and sighs. “What am I going to do with you?”
