Nobunaga Oda's Isekai Cultivation Experience

If he were being honest, Nobu was a little creeped out when Cho mentioned placing 'extra love' into the dishes. Despite this, he still enjoyed the food quite a bit. After all, even if she did place something 'extra' inside, it didn't really matter so long as he didn't know what it was."Thanks. It was delicious..."Amused by her Lord's awkwardness, Cho covered her mouth with her sleeve, giggling before sending a playful wink his way and teasing, "Don't worry. I would never befoul my Lord's meal by adding anything strange. My happiness is your ability to eat without worry..."Punctuating her statement with one of the most radiant smiles Nobu had ever seen, the latter found himself seriously considering apologizing. Instead, he just watched as Cho bowed low enough that her breasts nearly spilled out, wholly unable to speak until she had departed with his empty plates in hand..."That woman is dangerous...""My Lord...?"Hearing Yui's voice, Nobu shifted his attention towards her, confusion visible in his face until his mind fully processed why she had called out to him.Waving his hand in a dismissive gesture, Nobu said, "Nah, it's nothing bad. It's hard to explain, but it was basically a compliment.""Oh...I see..."Though she didn't really understand Nobu's way of speaking at times, Yui didn't doubt he was telling the truth. Thus, rather than press the issue, she changed the topic of discussion, asking, "What are your plans for the rest of the evening? Should we prepare for a bath or are you still going to be meeting with Rukia-dono and Takao-san...?"Remembering his promise to the mother-daughter duo, Nobu's face formed into a frown as he shook his head and said, "I'm not really in the mood to be gawked at like a circus freak. If they want to stop by, I don't mind meeting them. I just don't feel like taking a bath right now."Nodding her head, Yui's gaze flickered towards Ayane for a brief moment. In response, the latter returned a nod of her own before promptly disappearing into the ceiling above. This time, however, she moved much slower than normal so that Nobu was able to perceive her departure.Following Ayane's departure with his eyes, Nobu fell silent for a brief moment before shaking his head a second time and asking, "Where is Yuriko? I haven't seen her ever since she left this morning. Don't tell me she went on a mission or something..."Having anticipated this question for quite some time, a smile developed across Yui's face as she explained, "Today was Rynka's and Shizune's final evaluation. As the kunoichi assigned to oversee their mission, Yuriko's presence was requested. She should be returning shortly after the sun sets."Though he wasn't particularly upset, Nobu couldn't help wincing when he imagined Rynka and Shizune becoming kunoichi. He didn't really know much about the former, but the latter gave off a very spoiled, borderline intolerable vibe. She had clearly received special treatment compared to other kunoichi, and, while he could understand the reasons why, Nobu was still far from truly forgiving her. He might never.Noticing the discomfort visible in her Lord's expression, Yui was about to say something when he suddenly interjected, saying, "Don't worry about it. I just get a little pissed whenever I think back to what happened in the forest..."Shaking his head clear of such thoughts, Nobu was seriously considering taking a nap when a muted sound emanated from outside his door. It hadn't even been a few minutes since Ayane left, so, unless they had literally been waiting nearby for his invitation, it couldn't be Rukia and her daughter."I come bearing a message for Nobunaga-dono. The Matriarch has requested his presence in the main hall. Please attend at your earliest convenience..."Without waiting for Nobu's response, the voice and presence from behind the door vanished without a trace."Annoying..."Smiling wryly in response to Nobu's grumbling, Yui attempted to defend her Grandmother by saying, "I'm certain this is a good thing. Your abilities are unlike anything I have ever seen or heard of. Grandmother wouldn't let anything happen to you."Rolling his eyes, Nobu rose to his feet and said, "Whatever. Let's just get this over with..."......After a quick journey through the main estate, Nobu found himself in a much larger room than the one he had met Hitomi in previously. It was almost like a throne room, but, instead of anything more ornate, the most extravagant seat in the hall was basically just a cushion on top of a slightly elevated platform.Unsurprisingly, this centermost seat was occupied by Hitomi. She wasn't the only one present in the room, however. There were six other ornate seats in the wide and open chamber, three on each side of a central aisle. Four were occupied by remarkably beautiful women while the other two, one appearing far more ornate than the other, were currently empty."You arrived much sooner than I expected. For that, you have our gratitude..."Tearing his eyes away from the big-tittied woman smoking a pipe with a seductive look on her face, Nobu met Hitomi's gaze and answered, "No problem. I didn't really have anything going on right now..."Though his words were far more casual than the situation mandated, Nobu was doing his best to at least sound civil as he approached the final seat, a relatively simple-looking mat set in the center of the hall. There was also a small table with tea and snacks on it, but, other than taking a quick glance, Nobu didn't bother himself with them as he sat down with a grunt and crossed his legs.Under normal circumstances, behavior like Nobu's wouldn't be tolerated. After what Hitomi had revealed, however, each of the Elders present were far more interested in his actions than offended by them. He was basically someone from a different world, and, while he was undoubtedly their Young Lord, he possessed powers and abilities that made him invaluable, not just to the Yoshitsune Clan, but the entire Archipelago.Feeling the eyes of everyone present focused on him, a slight frown marred Nobu's face as he said, "I hope you didn't invite me here just to be stared at..."Covering her mouth with her sleeve, Hitomi issued a light giggle before shaking her head and saying, "Worry not, Waka-chan. We did not call you here without reason. Rather, we wanted to inform you of some good news."Though he was briefly distracted by Suzune waving at him from the corner of his eyes, Nobu quickly regained his focus when he heard Hitomi's words, brows raised slightly as he asked, "Okay? Lay it on me."Raising her own brows at the unfamiliar turn of phase, Hitomi resisted the urge to ask as she went on to explain, "We have discussed the matter in great detail and come to a consensus regarding our previous conversation. In summary, we have decided that, so long as you live among us, we will do our best to ensure that none of our younger generation are sent away on less desireable missions. Specifically, we would ask that you use your ability to ascertain whether or not certain members of our clan possess unique abilities or bloodlines. For each new bloodline discovered, we will provide you with additional resources while also doing our best to facilitate any and all requests you might have."Frowning in response to Hitomi's words, Nobu crossed his arms and asked, "What if I ask you to let them choose a different path? Something other than becoming a kunoichi?"Having already anticipated this question, Hitomi maintained her characteristically confident smile as she answered, "Our clan focuses on rearing kunoichi, not because we want to, but because it is necessary for our survival. If you can help our girls pursue additional paths, we will support that decision to the best of our ability. However, you must have a realistic plan to achieve your goals. Sentiment can only take you so far and we cannot squander resources on those without the ambition or drive to make use of them..."Though he didn't agree with everything Hitomi was saying, Nobu ultimately nodded his head in response, saying, "Yeah, sure. Just don't go sending off children to become prostitutes and shit. That kind of thing makes me sick..."Nodding her head in affirmation, Hitomi adopted a far more serious tone as she said, "I am a woman of my word. So long as you reside within the territories of the Yoshitsune Clan, we will not send our children away to receive that kind of training..."Punctuating her words, Hitomi performed a hand seal that resulted in a buxom kunoichi to appear with an infant bundled in her arms. Then, before Nobu could even think to ask, Hitomi explained, "A few of my fellow Elders still have doubts regarding the abilities you purport to possess. I know this is a bit sudden, but it would go a long way towards allaying any concerns they might have if you can demonstrate your ability in front of them. To that end, I have asked that one of our recently born daughters be brought in. Please tell us everything you are able to ascertain from observing her..."Though he was tempted to refuse, Hitomi's previous warnings were still fresh in Nobu's mind. He was also doing his best to at least appear calmer and more confident, so, despite frowning quite a bit, he ultimately answered, "Fine. I don't appreciate being put on the spot like this but I'll make an exception this time. Just keep in mind that I'll be charging you for each future use. This ability literally consumes my cultivation base so I'm not going to spam it just because you want to test me."Seeing, not just Hitomi, but all of the Elders nod their heads, Nobu shifted his attention to the buxom kunoichi, awkwardness swelling within him as she promptly proferred him the baby in her arms. He didn't actually need to be in contact with the person he was scanning, but, now that he thought about it, Nobu realized there was quite a bit of merit to keeping the specifics of his ability a secret...------------------------------------Name: Yoshitsune JyubeiAge: 19 daysGender: Female, H:49.3cm, W: 4.8kg, B: 42.2cm, W: 43.1cm, H: 41.9cmBlood Type: O+Cultivation: N/AAura Units: 8/10Status: Cursed(+), Hungry(+), Sleepy(+)-Cursed by the Goddess Inari Okami: Probably of bearing daughters increased to 99.5%.

She is 19 days old, weighs 4.8kg, and has a Blood Type of O+. Her current Aura amount is 10 and she is currently both sleepy and hungry. As for special bloodlines, she would be normal if not for the Curse affecting your entire Clan..."Hearing Nobu's explanation, the Elders present, Suzune especially, felt varying degrees of excitement. His ability was a lot more comprehensive than they had anticipated. They even suspected he wasn't telling them everything, but, rather than press him for more, they just nodded in approval when Hitomi passed her gaze over each of them in turn.Seeing each of the Elders nod, a smile developed across Hitomi's face as she returned her attention to Nobu and said, "On behalf of the entire Yoshitsune Clan, let me be the first to say that I'm looking forward to a long and healthy cooperation with Waka-no, Nobunaga-sama..."To indicate her sincerity, Hitomi bowed forward, an action promptly repeated by everyone else in the hall. This made Nobu feel more than a little uncomfortable, but, understanding this was probably the 'ideal' outcome, he forced a smile and answered, "Yeah...sure thing..." in an audibly awkward tone.........(A/N: Nobu's ability makes Information Elders moist (UwU)...)

After discussing a few of the particulars related to his move, Nobu returned to his room alongside Yui and Kiku. There, he found Ayane, Rukia, and Takao waiting for him outside.Before the three girls could bow in concert, Nobu preempted their courtesies by raising his hand and saying, "Yo. Let's head inside."Though Rukia and Takao were a little slow to react, Ayane immediately rose to her feet before looking down at the duo and saying, "I told you so..." in her characteristically delicate yet cool monotone.Hearing Ayane's remark, Nobu continued his approach, asking, "What did you tell them?" in a slightly curious tone.Without any shame whatsoever, Ayane looked back at him and explained, "I told them you didn't like courtesies...should I not have...?"Shaking his head, Nobu answered, "Nah. It's whatever." before opening the door and adding, "Let's go."Though Takao seemed extremely uncomfortable by this turn of events, Rukia simply smiled as she pulled her daughter along. If she could help her daughter win the favor of someone like Nobu, she would be able to spend her last few years in peace. Thus, even if the chances were slim, she wanted to at least try...Unaware of Rukia's thoughts, Nobu made himself comfortable before gesturing for the rest to do the same. At the same time, a feeling of incongruency washed over him as he watched the mother-daughter duo take a seat. This was the first time he was meeting with a pair of women after initially seeing them naked. To make the situation even stranger, they were a pair of mother and daughter, so, while it was arguably more normal to encounter them like this, Nobu actually felt more awkward now than he had in the bath...Noticing Nobu's gaze, an intelligent glimmer flashed across Rukia's eyes before she smiled and asked, "What do you think of Takao's outfit? It's similar to the one I used to wear back when I was still active."As a 'retired' kunoichi, Rukia generally walked around in a relatively modest kimono. As for Takao, she was wearing a surprisingly complex set of equipment, but, like most kunoichi, there was also a considerable amount of skin showing. This included most of her back and sides, so, if you looked at her from the right angle, it was possible to view the 'contents' of her outfit without anything being concealed.Though he did briefly cast his gaze to Takao, Rukia's words reminded Nobu of something, so, while it was generally considered rude to ask someone their age, he didn't hesitate to ask, "How old are you...?" while staring directly at the older yet remarkably youthful-looking woman.Covering her mouth with her sleeve, Rukia giggled playfully before answering, "I just turned 33 this year." without any fear, doubt, or even mild trepidation in her voice. She could easily understand what Nobu was truly asking, but, rather than exhibit fear in front of her daughter, she maintained a perfectly calm and dignified demeanor.Furrowing his brows even further, Nobu remained silent for several seconds as he pulled out the stone tablet and checked the cost to befriend Rukia. His pupils contracted slightly when he saw the value was 13,892,311. Based on the maths he had performed previously, this would put her around Rank 1 Platinum Hero. If what the girls explained was true, this indicated she still had a few years to live, but, at the same time, it showed that she had once been a powerhouse of the Yoshitsune Clan since women apparently lost upwards of 10% of their cultivation base during pregnancy."It's no wonder she gets to live in the main estate..."Though her eyes glistened with a curious light, Rukia didn't ask for clarification since she could feel the hostility radiating from virtually everyone else in the room. She was a kunoichi that specialized in infiltration and assassination so she was especially sensitive to the intentions of others.Deciding to continue the previous topic, Rukia's expression became ostensibly playful as she asked, "Does Nobunaga-dono prefer older women~?"Raising his brows, Nobu met Rukia's gaze, silence permeating the room for several seconds before he ultimately nodded his head and answered, "If I had to pick between brats and matures beauties, I would definitely lean towards the latter. Why do you ask...?"Giggling a second time, Rukia replied, "Oh, no reason. I was just a little curious. Most people would actually choose younger women unless the woman in question has a high cultivation base. After all, it's a lot easier to shape the hearts and minds of younger women than it is to mold someone much older. Most women can't even find a partner after the age of twenty so they end up spending a few years in a brothel just to find a husband."Though he knew she didn't mean to offend him, Nobu couldn't help furrowing his brows when he heard Rukia's words. Twenty wasn't even considered old back in his world. Rather, the average age that most women got married was pretty close to 31. As for men, they would generally wait until they were between 33-35 before settling down as it was considered financially irresponsible to even try to start a family before that...Shaking that thought from his mind, Nobu reminded himself, once again, that this was no longer his world. Then, despite the mildly concerned looks he was receiving from virtually everyone, he looked towards Takao and asked, "When are you leaving on your mission? Do you know what you'll be doing...?"Sitting a little straighter, Takao did her best to appear calm as she answered, "My specialties lay in infiltration and assassination. I don't know the specifics of my mission, but I should be paired with another member from my generational group. We will work together to eliminate a target from a Lesser Noble family. From what I have heard, there has been considerable unrest in the nearby city of Owari-Asai. Unless my duties are required elsewhere, I imagine I will be deployed there."Blinking in surprise, Nobu shifted his attention towards Yui, but, before he could ask, the latter just shook her head ever-so-slightly as if to say, "We'll talk about it later." or "I'm not really sure." Either way, it was clear she didn't think it was a good idea to discuss such matters in front of guests.Though he couldn't resist frowning, Nobu decided not to press the matter as he looked back at Takao and said, "Well...good luck? I'm not really sure what to say in situations like this. If it were up to me, girls your age wouldn't be sent on missions like this. I mean, killing someone just because someone else ordered you to? That's pretty fucked up..."Not expecting someone of Nobu's status to say such a thing, Takao found herself at a momentary loss for words. It had never even occurred to her that someone might consider it strange for her, a kunoichi trained in assassination, to kill on command. Rather, if it were any other Noble, they would either commend or fear her based on her willingness and efficiency...Stepping in before her daughter could become even more muddleheaded, Rukia issued a sonorous giggle before musing, "Nobunaga-dono is quite magnanimous. Not only are you willing to befriend kunoichi outside your personal entourage, but you even go so far as to show consideration towards your enemies. Though my own views differ due to my particular specializations, it's a relief to know there are such kind and caring individuals among the nobility..."As he had never been particularly fond of praise, much less brown-nosing, Nobu had to fight the urge to wince in response to Rukia's words. Even he could tell she was laying it on a little thick, but, after learning more about what it meant to be a kunoichi, her attempts to earn his favor weren't a surprise. She might have other daughters, but Takao was probably the last one she would see grow into a woman...Looking towards the other kunoichi in the room, Nobu didn't have the heart to ask whether or not their mothers were still alive. He was pretty sure that Yui's was already dead based on the fact she had only ever mentioned her older sister and grandmother. As for the rest, well, he had no clue. It hadn't even occurred to him to ask, as, despite the last two days feeling like two whole years, very little time had passed since their introduction.Recalling that Hitomi had said he could interview and personally select staff to help him look after the girls that would invariably be sent his way, an exasperated sigh escaped Nobu's throat before he shook his head and muttered, "Whatever..." before surprising both girls by asking, "How would the two of you like to come and work for me? The Matriarch has given me permission to basically open my own school. I need teachers and teachers' assistants and you're two of the only people I really know in the Yoshitsune Clan at this moment..."Smiling radiantly in response to Nobu's words, Rukia didn't hesitate to lower her head, but, before she could say anything, his voice interjected, saying, "Stop it. I hate all that formality crap. You can bow all you want when the situation calls for it. Just not right now."Though he knew he should be getting used to formalities, it had only been a few days since Nobu revealed his identity. He honestly preferred the way Yui had treated him before. Sure, his life had been a lot more miserable back then, but at least he didn't have to put up with people treating him as though the ground he walked on was somehow sacred. In the end, they were all humans. Since he wouldn't lower his head to others, it felt unbelievably insincere to have other people lower their heads to him.Raising her head, a smile developed across Rukia's face as she answered, "It would be my honor to work alongside Nobunaga-sama. I'm not sure what I can teach outside of infiltration, assassination, and seduction techniques, but I'll do my best."Following her words, Rukia looked towards Takao as if to encourage the latter to do the same. This left Takao feeling more than a little awkward, not because she didn't want to work under Nobu, but because she didn't really know how 'not' to show proper courtesy. All of her training had taught her to revere the Nobility, especially the members of the Oda Clan. Nobu was the first son of their Lord so it just felt wrong not to bow her head...Fortunately, despite her taciturn nature, Takao wasn't a fool. She had also discussed this matter at great length with her mother, so, fearing this was her only chance to improve her position and stay at Nobu's side, she managed to appear unperturbed as she answered, "I won't let you down. Thank you for this opportunity."Returning an awkward smile of his own, Nobu replied, "Don't mention it. I needed people and the two of you just happened to be the first to introduce yourselves. I'll let one of these girls fill you in on the specifics. I'm actually pretty tired so I don't intend to stay up much longer."Realizing he was basically asking them to leave, Rukia and Takao nodded their heads at nearly the exact same time before rising to their feet alongside Kiku. Yui had sent a curt nod towards the latter the moment Nobu mentioned that someone would explain things so it was pretty obvious that she would be the one doing so.With the three girls' departure, only Nobu, Yui, and Ayane were left in the room. This might have given others ideas, but, as he had stated, Nobu was more than a little tired after the surprisingly fruitful day. He also wanted to get a jump start on his personal training, so, after letting his mind wander for a brief moment, he ultimately shook his head and said, "Whatever. I'm going to bed..." in an audibly fatigued tone.........(A/N: Guess Nobu doesn't like the taste of Oyakodon...?)

After forcing the girls to explain exactly what they meant, Nobu found himself sitting with his left hand cradling his head.Simply put, kunoichi were designed to have an 'expiration date' from the moment they started their training. The poisons they ingested helped to strengthen their body and provide resistance against other forms of poison, but, at the same time, it drastically reduced their lifespan.According to Kumiko, the life expectancy of most kunoichis was around thirty years. Most died long before that due to work-related hazards, but, even if they were extremely careful, most would begin to lose their cultivation in their late twenties.Unless they had a unique set of talents that the clan wanted to preserve, most kunoichi would die between three and five years after their cultivation began decaying. They could lengthen this period of time by working hard or consuming various treasured herbs, but, more often than not, those that reached the age of 'retirement' chose to spend their final few years guiding the younger generation and relaxing."That explains why everyone in the village looks so young...this..."Though he thought he had something to say, Nobu found that he was still at a loss for words. This type of thing would never be allowed back on Earth, yet, as if it was perfectly normal, all the girls around him appeared completely unperturbed by the notion they were already experiencing their twilight years. And what did they intend to spend those years on? Serving him to the best of their ability..."Fuck..."Feeling as though he might cry, Nobu covered his eyes with his left hand as he made a shooing gesture with his right, saying, "Leave...I need to think..."Though he felt a twinge of guilt telling the girls to leave, Nobu didn't want to appear weak in front of a group of people who had dedicated their entire lives to him. He knew this was a little contrary, but, feeling a range of emotions he had never experienced before, he didn't really know what else to do. He just wanted to be alone.A stark contrast to how Nobu was feeling, most of the girls present found it difficult to contain their smiles. It was rare to have a Lord that cared about their subordinates enough to genuinely grieve at their loss, much less the idea that they would eventually have to part. This drastically increased their desire to protect him, as, even in their wildest dreams, they never imagined that their Lord would be such a kind and compassionate man.If he knew what the girls were thinking, Nobu would have felt even guiltier. Fortunately, they quickly and silently filed out of the room. They had been so silent, in fact, that Nobu couldn't even begin to guess how long they had been gone by the time he looked up.Exhaling an emotionally fatigued sigh, Nobu crawled over to his futon before pulling out the stone tablet. The Units and Upgrades tab allowed him to change everything from the girls' size and shape to their various 'preferences', so he was hoping it would allow him to deal with the toxicity issue as well.With this in mind, Nobu pressed on the tiny (+) icon next to Midori's [Cursed] Status. She hadn't been his 'friend' the last time he looked at it so he was hoping there would be some kind of change now that she was listed in his Units and Upgrades tab. To his considerable relief, there was quite a bit of additional information compared to before. This included a section related to removing the curse, and, though he was far from being able to afford the 30,000,000 Aura price tag, the curse of a Goddess had to be more difficult to resolve than simple poison."Fuckin' a, man...I'm so glad to have a cheat right now..."Though he didn't rise from his futon, a smile developed across Nobu's face as he covered his eyes using his forearm. It hadn't even been two whole days since he met the kunoichi who had sworn to serve him, but, after everything that happened since his reincarnation, they were the closest thing he had to family and friends in this world. This might change once he met his actual family, but, for the time being, Yui and the rest were basically his people...he might be an incorrigible asshole, but he still looked after the people who looked out for him.........After lying in silence for the better part of half an hour, Nobu eventually rose to a seated position before pulling out his tablet for a second time. He was a little curious about the other (+) icons, so, now that he had calmed down a bit, he couldn't resist the urge to check them out.Clicking on the (+) next to Midori's [Fear] Status, a wry smile developed across Nobu's face as he saw the familiar, "She thinks you're going to eat her." line. Below that, however, was an option to 'erase' said Status for a mere 390 Aura. This filled his head with various thoughts, but, believing it was only a matter of time before her fear resolved itself, Nobu clicked on her [Natural Jade Body] next.Unsurprisingly, the description for Natural Jade Body remained the same. Now, however, a number of different options existed within the description. This included strengthening the effect, evolving it into something else entirely, or erasing it completely. Fortunately, the interface showed exactly what it would evolve into, specifically the Flawless Jade Body and Immortal Jade Physique."Nice..."Having confirmed his suspicions, Nobu decided to open Sachiko's and Nariko's Status in turn...------------------------------------Name: Yoshitsune SachikoAge: 8Gender: Female, H:129cm, W: 25.2kg, B: 61.1cm, W: 46.3cm, H: 63.2cmBlood Type: AB+Cultivation: N/AAura Units: 1301/1362Status: Cursed(+), Carmine Eyes(+), Confusion(+), Excitement(+)-Cursed by the Goddess Inari Okami: Probably of bearing daughters increased to 99.5%.

It might not be polite to think of the girls in this regard, but, so long as he wasn't a complete ass about it, he doubted they would mind."It looks like there is still a bit of hope for Yui. So long as I can make her my friend, she won't have to stay flat as a board for the rest of her life..."Since there were options to both increase and decrease variables such as height, weight, and bust, Nobu could literally increase Yui from an A-Cup to a D-Cup if he wanted to. Unfortunately, the only parameters he could affect in the present belonged to a bunch of brats. Sure, he could theoretically give them even better bodies than Shizune. He just wasn't a pedophile. Hell, just knowing the three girls' sizes was already enough to make him feel like a creeper...Shaking that thought from his mind, Nobu began navigating through the other tabs to see if there were options for additional bloodlines available. If he could take them away, it stood to reason that he would also be able to add them. Unfortunately, perhaps as a result of the trio already possessing bloodlines, he couldn't find any options that would allow them to possess another."Guess I need to get serious about increasing my strength. I'm going to need a shit ton of Aura if I want to treat all the girls' toxicity..."As that thought crossed his mind, so too did the notion of curing every kunoichi in the village. This would work if there were no limitations on the number of people he could add as a friend, but that didn't seem to be the case. His current Friends List seemed to be capped at 100, and, from what he could tell, there was no way to delete anyone. As a result, he was already down four slots due to the Transcendent Goddess of the Six Paths basically forcing him to add her as a friend.Unfortunately, even though she was clearly at the top of his Friends List, Nobu couldn't see any of the Goddess' stats or parameters. This implied there was a distinction between the people listed on his Friends List and those who appeared in his Units and Upgrades Tab. Either that or she had gone out of her way to make sure he couldn't see her Status or benefit from her clicks...Doing his best not to think any bad thoughts about the Goddess who had basically fucked over his reincarnation, Nobu occupied himself with clicking until he began feeling peckish. This was quickly followed by a feeling of ravenous hunger, not because he was suffering from the effects of extreme and prolonged malnourishment, but because Cho's food was that good.Suppressing the feelings of guilt that instantaneously reared their ugly head, Nobu set aside his stone tablet before calling out, "Is anyone listening? If you are, go ahead and reveal yourselves..."The moment Nobu finished speaking, Yui, Kiki, and Ayane appeared at the entrance to the room before entering like normal people. Their outfits made this a little strange, especially in the case of Kiku, but that just reminded Nobu of something he had been meaning to ask about ever since his arrival.Waiting until the girls had taken their seats, Nobu asked, "How long will it take to have the Iga Clan prepare a made-to-order mask? I'm planning to try and train my sense of smell in the future, but I'd rather have the option to block things out than suffer the consequences of not having one..."Though she was expecting Nobu to ask about dinner, Yui promptly replied, "The Iga Clan is located in the neighboring province. We're not on the best terms, but the merchant branch of the Oda Clan has been trading with them for the last three hundred years. So long as we issue the order through them, it should only take around two months for the mask to be completed. Until then, we can have our own craftsman begin experimenting with alternative solutions. If you're going to be passing on your unique Cultivation technique to members of our clan, we're going to need them..."Since he was intending to just that, specifically with Sachiko, Nobu nodded his head in affirmation, muttering, "Good...good..." before proceeding to ask, "How soon do you think Cho can prepare a meal...?"Smiling wryly in response, Yui didn't even have to say anything before a gentle tapping could be heard outside the room. Cho had been waiting outside with food and drinks ready to deliver, and, after everything that had happened earlier, she was more excited than ever to provide sustenance to her beloved Lord and Master..."I placed a bit of extra love into these dishes. Please let me know what you think~."......(A/N: Cho is a good girl...)
