Chapter 71: Hinami's Free Day!

(Time quickly went by in the Realm of Light which Gaito was waking up from his nap after sleeping for a full five hours which was two weeks that went by on Earth. Gaito then got up with his pelt and headed down to the training room to check on Hinami.)
"Gaito: Lets go see how that girl's handling herself."
(As Gaito finally descended to the ground, he then saw Hinami out of breath but several burn scars around her body from the sun's immense heat followed by bleedings on her shoulders. Gaito then saw Hinami holding a handcrafted version of Hellblazer which had him surprised.)
"Hinami? How long have you been down here?"
(She turned around and saw Gaito but had a new yellow color in her eye pupils but was very exhausted, tired and in pain.)

"Hinami: So.. many hours that I lost count plus its like you said... You wanted to give me... non-stop training. It took me lots of effort and tries... But I finally took down...-"
(She coughed and fell to one knee but Gaito saw the extreme difficulty setting on the computer generated Zeus. He then looked at her bloody burn scars and the fallen A.I Zeus.)
"Gaito: Hinami..."
(She tried standing up but fell but Gaito quickly caught her.)
"Don't even think about moving, you've already ruined your body."
(Gaito then ended the training simulation for her and took her back upstairs to the mansion. A short while later, Hinami was then sleeping as Gaito laid Hinami down in his bed so she could rest and Gaito then sat on the side quietly but began to meditate. Meanwhile in Olympus, Kazuya was training with Choryrth but was becoming more irritated by the words Gaito said.)
"Choryrth: Hold up! Kazuya, is there something bothering you?"
"Kazuya: N-No.. Lets continue!"
"Choryrth: I can tell when you lie Kazuya. Come now, what's bothering you?"
(He sighed and sat down.)
"Kazuya: Its Gaito... He said until I learn manners and quit being myself, he forbids me from going back to his mansion and hanging with Shibuto."
"Choryrth: Oh... That..?"
(He nodded in silence.)

"I see. Well Kazuya, Gaito is... considerably different than any human we've ever encountered or met. Unlike all humans, Gaito is the one being who does not care what the answer is, he'd still go out there and do it like he doesn't care."
"Kazuya: But why..?"
"Choryrth: Well, Gaito is only acting this way so he can protect us in the future. Besides, even I agree with his actions from time to time. As much as I want to stop him, we just can't."
"Kazuya: But the reason is why can't we..?"
"Choryrth: Unfortunately, I cannot say. He plans on keeping it secret for the time being."
"Kazuya: Fine. Can we continue training?"
"Choryrth: Of course, Kazuya."
(As they was about to train more, Helios stormed in the throne room and yelled out Choryrth's name. The both of them was then irritated.)

"Helios: CHORYRTH!!! WHERE IS MY SPOUSE?!"
"Choryrth: What?!"
"Helios: As I've stated to you before, I demand a spouse that YOU'D help me win so SHE may take my hand in marriage and we both shall rule as the God and Goddess of both sun and light!"
"Choryrth: Why exactly should I help you with that?"
"Helios: Because!!! I'm going to MAKE you...-"
(Helios took one look at Kazuya and sniffed him once.)
"Why do I smell sunshine on you..?"
"Kazuya: None of your damn business!"
"Helios: Oh..? None of my business huh? Then let me ask you a question... Are you familiar with a certain "God" of some sort..?"
"Kazuya: It depends on who the hell you're talking about..!"
"Helios: Oh? You do not know? I think the name is... Magachi?"
(Kazuya quickly jumped and backed up as quickly as he could then was in a fighting stance. Helios then smirked with a chuckle at the response.)
"So you do know him..."
(Choryrth separated the both of them.)

"Choryrth: Even if he does know Sawano, what is your point?"
"Helios: I want... Hinami Magazaki... As my fiancé!"
(They both gasped in disgust.)
"Kazuya: YOU'RE F**KING SICK!!"
"Helios: Its how all Greek Gods are like my lad and since you know Hinami... I demand that you take me to her at once!"
"Kazuya: LONG DAY IN HELL! I'D NEVER LET YOU HAVE HER!"
"Helios: Are.. you.. DEFYING A GOD?!"
(He quick-crafted a sword of light and tried to strike Kazuya which Choryrth then gripped Venomshank's lightning saber and slashed through the light blade, surprising Helios.)
"Kazuya: V-VENOMSHANK..?!"
(Choryrth then looked at Helios with a serious stare.)
"Choryrth: I go by a simple rule to become a nice king among the gods... But those who uselessly rely on their own rank and power to get whatever they want is nothing but distasteful to the heavens. I do not wish to harm you Helios, but you're tempting my patience on it... Leave."
(Helios was speechless but smirked again and turned around to leave.)
"Helios: Oh well, I guess I'll just find her myself. I shall take my leave now!"
(Kazuya quickly ran towards him but was stopped by Choryrth, letting Helios leave peacefully.)

"Kazuya: WHAT ARE YOU DOING? HE'S AFTER HINAMI!"
"Choryrth: Hinami is with Gaito. There is no reason to worry or fear."
(He stopped and realized what he said.)
"Kazuya: Yeah... I guess there's no reason..."
(A while later after waking up from her nap, Hinami looked around after sitting up and saw no one in the room except herself. She then got up and walked out of the room to find Gaito.)
"Hinami: Gaito..? Hey, are you in here..?"
"Goxius: He stepped out for some outside training, he'll be back."
"Hinami: Oh? Okay.."
(She then walked outside and found Gaito doing pushups with Isabel and Tayna on his back for extra weight. Hinami then walked towards them which Gaito didn't stop working out.)

"Gaito: Hinami? You feeling any better?"
"Hinami: Yeah. I just needed some rest."
"Gaito: Glad you're feeling much better."
"Hinami: What are you doing..?"
"Gaito: Pushups! I have Tayna and Isabel on my back for added weight."
"Hinami: How long have you been doing pushups for?"
"Gaito: About... two to six hours I think. All I can say is somewhere equivalent to seven hours. I just forget sometimes."
"Hinami: Oh my-"
"Gaito: Yup! Its a hassle, but I'd do anything to get stronger. Hold on girls, I'm gonna switch!"
(Gaito then threw them into the air and flipped on his feet, carrying both Tayna and Isabel on both feet while doing more pushups, Hinami surprised at his quick reflexes.)
"Hinami: So this is what it takes to get stronger hm?"
"Gaito: Yup. Like Lotus once said to me: "Strength is just a vision, not an ambition. True strength comes from what you desire and vow to." That old coot is a wise one alright."
"Hinami: I believe you Gaito."
(His stomach then rumbled as he paused the pushups and carried Tayna and Isabel and let them go which the three of them heard his stomach.)

"Gaito: WHELP! All that training actually got me famished."
"Isabel: I could make a good dinner for us!"
"Gaito: Save it for tonight, I might go and find a bar or somewhere here. Hinami, wanna come?"
"Hinami: Me? Sure!"
(They both then started to leave the residential area to find a nearby bar in the realm.)
"Isabel: Be safe you two!"
"Gaito: Yeah yeah, thanks Isabel!"

(She smiled at him as Tayna went back inside the mansion. After walking around Gaito and Hinami finds a popular bar which was crowded with gods, demi-gods and descendants. Everyone then paused to see Gaito walk into the bar and cheered as they chanted his name. He waved at everyone then the both of them took a seat at the counter and Gaito handed her a menu for Hinami as they picked out their drinks.)

"Don't tell Sawano, but your first drink's on me!"
"Hinami: Oh! I.. can't really drink yet, I'm still seventeen.."
"Gaito: But in the heavenly skies, time flies by so you're actually over a hundred years old up here in the heavens."
"Hinami: How does time even work up here?"
"Gaito: Its... complicated to explain. All I can say is, you're gonna want to grab a massive pack of paper, extra boxes of pencils-"
"Hinami: Never mind!"
"Bartender: Welcome! What would you two like??"
"Gaito: Hmm... Just an earthly beer please."
"Bartender: Of course! And for your friend?"
"Hinami: I would like... the Mt. Olympus Cocktail!"
"Bartender: OO! A splendid choice, I shall have your drink prepared to your liking!"
(Gaito's beer then slid down the counter which he caught as Hinami watched her cocktail being prepared swiftly and carefully. After preparing the final touches, the bartender handed Hinami her ordered drink.)
"Here you are! Mt. Olympus Cocktail!"
(Hinami took one sip and her eyes popped open with a chill shivering her entire body.)

"Gaito: This beer's not half bad... Hm."
(Hinami and Gaito was enjoying their drinks until Gaito's beer then exploded in his face which surprised everyone. Hinami was surprised but silent as she recognized the individual god.)
"Hinami: G-Goddess of D-Destruction.. Xinera!!!"
(Gaito then got up from his seat and stared down Xinera as she did the same thing to Gaito.)
"Gaito: Do you know who you're messing with..?"
"Xinera: I mess with whoever I want."
"Gaito: Classic yet foolish. There are those who surpasses your kidlike strength."
"Xinera: "Kidlike" strength huh..? You mock me?"
"Gaito: I ain't taking the words back."
"Xinera: Then.. LETS..! GO..!"
"Gaito: Fine by me!"
"Hinami: What's GOING ON?!"
(Several spectators made room for the both of them as one table was set in front of them and they both had their elbows down on the table and clasped their hands together. The bartender held them tight as everyone else was watching.)

"Bartender: READY..?!?!? ARM WRESTLE!!"

(Everyone was cheering for both Gaito and Xinera as Hinami was watching their pure strength from the two. Xinera began forcing Gaito's hand down to the opposing side which he was smirking with laugher. Gaito then powered his hand out of the corner and forced Xinera's on her opposing side. After two minutes of arm-wrestling Gaito then used fifteen percent of his physical power and slammed Xinera's arm through the table everyone cheering as Gaito won then Xinera held her bruised hand and laughed at her loss against Gaito.)

"Xinera: Haha!! You never change, Gaiti!"
"Hinami: "Gaiti?"
"Gaito: Yeah its a nickname Xinera gave me. Instead of Gaito, the "o" is replaced with an "I" henceforth, she calls me "Gaiti" from time to time."
"Hinami: I'm sorry.. But.. Xinera, aren't you suppose to be one of the most feared goddesses?!"
"Gaito: Well, she actually is the Goddess of Destruction still. But, she comes to the Realm of Light whenever I'm around."
"Hinami: How long have you met Xinera...?"
"Gaito: Actually, I met her in my past life, think of us as spiritual childhood friends."
(Hinami was speechless at the response.)
"Hinami: WHATTTTT?!?!??!"
"Xinera: Yup! Gaiti here is one of my closest!"
(Gaito then ordered another beer and tipped the bartender and took a big swig.)

"Gaito: Yup! Hinami, how's the cocktail?"
"Hinami: Its delicious..!"
"Gaito: Glad you're enjoying it, when you're done we can head back-"
(Everyone was silent after they all sensed an unusually warm presence. Hinami sensed it as well and started feeling nervous. Gaito got up from his stool again and held his thumb on to his cutlass's crossguard.)
"Hinami: G-Gaito..?"
"Gaito: Hinami... get down on the ground..."
(She did so, a bit frightened as the temperature was rapidly increasing in the bar, suddenly the whole bar was glowing which Gaito noticed and acted fast. The whole area then exploded from Helios's beam of light. alerts was blaring in the heavens which alarmed Choryrth as well.)

"Kazuya: WHAT'S GOING ON?!"
"Choryrth: ITS THE REALM OF LIGHT! KAZUYA, REMAIN HERE!!"
(He quickly ran out the throne room and outside, quickly teleporting himself to the Realm of Light to the scene. He then saw Gaito with everyone inside the destroyed bar outside in time. Hinami was then encaged inside a containment cell which she tried to escape out of.)
"Gaito: HELIOS YOU BASTARDDD!!!"
"Helios: YOU CAN'T LEGALLY ATTACK ME GAITO, I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT!"
"Gaito: I'M GOING TO RIP YOUR THROAT OUT!!"
"Choryrth: HELIOS! UNHAND HINAMI AT ONCE!!!"
(His wings then sprouted as he flew towards Helios which he then casted a beam of light which Helios and Hinami was disappearing, Gaito then blasted himself towards the light which disappeared at the last second. He stopped himself as he then looked down with pure anger written across his face.)

"Gaito: HEEEEEEEELLLLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! I'LL KILL YOU, YOU SICK-FILTHED BASTARD! I'LL MAKE YOU SUFFER INTO THE ENDLESS DEPTHS OF ETERNAL HELL WHEN I FIGHT YOU..!!!"
"Choryrth: Gaito! What happened?!"
"Gaito: Helios attacked the bar... Now he took Hinami.... DAMN HIM...! Choryrth, what in the ABSOLUTE hell did he take Hinami for..?"
"Choryrth: He plans on marrying Hinami by force..."
"Gaito: ....OVER MY GODDAMN BODY! CHORYRTH, I DON'T CARE HOW LONG I HAVE TO WAIT, I AM FIGHTING THAT BITCH..!"
"Choryrth: I will make the announcement. For now, relax and wait Gaito."
"Gaito: TCH, WAIT..? WAIT..?!? HE'S GOING TO TAKE SAWANO'S KID AND MARRY HER LIKE THAT?! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE HELL WOULD HAPPEN IF HE FOUND OUT?!"
"Choryrth: Please do not make me imagine his reaction..."
"Gaito: Exactly... Make. The. Match. ONE WEEK FROM NOW."
"Choryrth: One week?! Are you sure?!"
"Gaito: Do I LOOK "UNSURE" to YOU?!"
(He stared at Gaito's irate face and shook his head slowly, saying no.)
"That's what I thought. I'm sorry Choryrth, but I will make him die in his own pool of blood..!"
(Gaito walked off and gripped his fists tightly.)
"Choryrth: Where are you going??"
"Gaito: Gonna bag me some swords. Keep your promise, ONE WEEK... FROM NOW!"
(He nodded to the agreement as Gaito then stormed off towards the Olympus portal.)
