Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 843 A Parent part 2

Sakura found a bench and placed the wheelchair beside it before taking a seat, "Care to explain?"

"Kisuke is a responsible guy. All the things he does, he's prepared to take whatever the resulting consequences are."

"Bragging now, are we?"

Sakura chuckled at him, "You might be right, but Kisuke's responsibleness goes beyond that and steps into the territory of 'self-blame'. You should already have an idea of what I'm talking about."

"So you're saying that if we were to meet just to talk, he'll apologize? What's so bad about that?"

"You think he's someone that would apologize?"

Barakiel recalled various stories about him and immediately shook his head, "No."

"That's right. As long as he doesn't feel any regret, he won't ever apologize for the things he has done."

"Isn't that how it normally goes?"

"Yes. But even as his mother that watched him grow up, I can count the number of times he's regretted things on one hand, and that's including all the small stuff. Does that sound normal?"

"If what you said includes his childhood, then that's indeed incredibly abnormal." After all, no one can really live their day-to-day lives without experiencing any kind of regret, 'It's either that there's something wrong in his head, all of his actions are calculated, or both. In any case, this opens various possibilities on what he really is, including that myth of 'complete reincarnation'... But less than a myth, that's more of a glitch in Heaven's system.'

"Then Kisuke is-"

"Kisuke is my child." Before he could finish his words, however, Sakura interrupted him with a forceful voice, "Kisuke is my child no matter what he does. I'm his mother no matter what others say or think. Nothing will ever change that."

Barakiel looked at her and thought, 'I see... So she's already aware. Well, if Akeno was the same, I'd have the same stance, so I can understand.'

Not wanting to dwell on this particular topic anymore, Sakura continued, "As I was saying, Kisuke won't just regret anything easily even if it appears to be crazy within everyone else's eyes. However, he seems to be unaware of it, but he does feel guilt. I don't know if my premonitions are wrong but, I think that piling up guilt may end up destroying him."

"Well, it's not like he doesn't have a way to get rid of that guilt, but to do that, he always takes all the blame as long as he had any hand in it, even if it wasn't a choice of his. If he were to meet you in a simple setting, he might have provoked you to hate him to ease his guilt."

"..." Barakiel was speechless for a moment, "...That guy who stood up in front of all the leaders with pride and confidence?"

Sakura laughed, "That's the guy~ He's not a liar, but he's also not honest."

Barakiel found it really strange and he had doubts regarding that claim, but he couldn't really say anything about that either since he's not his parent, "And isn't that a good thing? You said that guilt might destroy him someday, so why stop him?"

"It's because he's not alone. Taking the blame is essentially hurting himself and knowing him, he should be fine taking that since he's strong. However, that doesn't mean I and those around him want to see him get hurt. If it's the guilt, we'll take care of it ourselves."

"...I see... You're one doting parent, huh? Be careful. You might get hated."

Sakura grinned at him and replied, "I think you should remind yourself with that every now and then."

"All the articles and public opinion are split." Seekvaira muttered while browsing the web through her smartphone, "It's amazing that you even got this much support even after the fact that you acted weak to manipulate the bets."

"That's because the character which was based on him has many fans and they're fine with getting fooled.", added Genshirou while also looking through the same things.

Seekvaira placed down her phone and faced Kisuke, who was silently sipping on his tea, "But seriously speaking, how many things can you actually do? In combat, one would only have one or two specialties yet you already showed three very different things at least at master level. In addition to that, you're also a researcher that's an expert in multiple fields. At this point, I think it's better to ask what you can't do. Even Ajuka-sama who's known to be very versatile only really comes down to two things, Magic and Magic Items."

"There are certainly a lot of things I can't do. It's just that the situation coincidentally could be managed by the things that I can do. So it looks impressive ,whereas I'm just similar to Ajuka-sama."

"A coincidence, huh..."

"Yep~ A coincidence."

It's only for a short time that Seekvaira came to know Kisuke but somehow, she couldn't believe that.
