Chapter 137: chapter 137 - Plot Armor
"They're split up? What they're planning?"
Said Tokugawa Asahi who kept a safe distance from Taufik, he was afraid if he moved a little closer than this, Taufik would find him, but one thing he didn't know was that Taufik and even Rani already knew his presence, but they kept silent, waiting for Tokugawa Asahi to come out on his own.
"Husband, are we just gonna wait like this? That guy was too afraid to come out"
"Hmm~"
Taufik was humming; it seemed that he was hesitant to approach Tokugawa Asahi directly, and Rani, who Saw this, was confused though that her husband may be...
'Is my Husband afraid? No, Something like that was Impossible... then what the reason for him to hesitate like this?'
"...Husband are you, Somehow... Just somehow... Was afraid?"
Ask Rani, who can't find the Reasons behind why Taufik was Hestited like this.
"Afraid? Me? Don't be ridiculous Rani"
"Then... Why did you hesitate so much?"
He heard Rani's question, and Taufik shook his head.
"Rani, hear me out, you know where we are, right?"
"... Japan, right?"
*Nod*
"Yes, we are in Japan; Here, we can't act carelessly; you know why?"
Said Taufik, with the utmost serious face that Rani had ever seen In her husband.
"*Gulp* w-why"
Rani asked very nervously.
'I-if even my Husband was this Serious, then Maybe It was Something very Dangerous'
"In here, the "Plot Armor" Is very thigh, that's why you can't act carelessly"
"P-plot Armor? What is that?"
"It is some kind of Blessing that every Protagonist In Anime has"
"..."
"Like this, if we approach him so suddenly, he will think that we are up to something bad, then he will attack us directly without asking because he thinks of us as a bad guy, and after that, we will defeat him easily, and here where the "plot armor" begins, after he was defeated, he will think something very precious to him, like his friends, childhood friends, Family, or anything else that he thought was precious to him, but the worse is, if he had a sick mother's or sister that waiting for him to back at his house, this was the Dangerous one"
"..."
"With that, he will gain a strength no one knows from where; if this happens, he will do anything to win; isn't it a Dangerous situation?"
Explained Taufik like it was something that absolutely would happen, and Rani, who heard it, was Dumbfounded at his absurd explanation; although she had only been on earth for a few months, she knew the term 'Anime' that Taufik was talking about.
Because after they do their 'Nights Activities', Taufik occasionally watches some of that Anime, and With Lembuswana, who is Always watching it too, inevitably, she and the others are familiar with what Anime is.
"Husband, Sometimes I don't know if you really Taufik I used to know or just straight a dumb person, Now, I was for the first time Worried for our future kids"
"W-what?... "
"What you just saying only happened inside Anime, it's not real, even Alice knows that too"
"I-I know that too, but I said "if" Just "if" I was just an ordinary man a few months ago, even your existence was a fantasy for me, but Know, you're here standing in front of me, who knows if something that happened in Anime was adapted from the real world? Everything was possible, isn't it?"
Said Taufik frustrated at what Rani just said.
"Yeah~yeah~ c'mon let's finish this quickly and Join the others"
Said Maharani, and then moved with a high speed, to the point if someone saw this, they would think she used a teleportation.
"*sigh* not fun"
Said Taufik and then also followed Rani.
-------------------
- back to a few minutes ago, with Tokugawa Asahi, who is still hiding from Taufik and Rani.
"___.___"
"___.___"
Tokugawa Asahi, who is hiding quite far away from Taufik and Observing them, can't hear what the two of them are talking about.
"___.___"
"What did they discuss? I can't expense my senses like before, because they will find out my whereabouts"
He was already getting caught from the start, but seeing them just Talking, Tokugawa Asahi thought that they still couldn't find out about his presence.
"But they were a very beautiful person, especially that woman, her beauty was so inhuman, she will be a Good Wife material"
Said Tokugawa Asahi, Praising the beauty that Rani has. But then...
"!!!"
"Huh? They're disappear; where they're gone?"
Seeing them disappear, Tokugawa Asahi suddenly stood up and then looked around, searching for where Taufik and Rani were going.
"On your back, young man"
"!!!"
He heard a woman's voice from his back; Tokugawa Asahi made a safe distance, turned his body around, and directly unsheathed his two Katana.
With a Battel posture, Tokugawa Asahi observes the Two of them.
"... Who are you? And what is your purpose for coming here?"
"I'm here to find the Ancient water spirit. Do you know something," Taufik said in Japanese language.
Heard that, some scenario playing inside Tokugawa Asahi's head, And it's turned to Misunderstood.
"... So it's you"
"... Yes?"
Rani asked, tilting her head in confusion, Not because Tokugawa Asahi asked questions, but because she didn't understand what He said.
"Do you know what your actions have brought to this land?"
"..."
At this point, Rani Looks at Taufik asking for some help.
"I will finish you guys here in the name of Justice, even if it is the last thing I do"
But there's no time for Taufik to transfer the knowledge of the Japanese language to Rani Because Tokugawa Asahi already charges at Them with his Katana in his hands.
"... Eh~ what?"
----------------
"... Eh~ what?"
Rani was very confused right now, the Young man who had a face that showed that he was a kind person, was not kind at all, Seeing him charge at her with his Katana.
"See? What I told you is true right? That was a template, that cannot be changed"
Said Taufik, but Rani still didn't believe it; then, with only her hands that changed to those Dragon ones, she was ready to face the Young man's assault.
"!!!"
Tokugawa Asahi showed a Shocked Expression when he Saw Rani's hands, but there was no time to understand what it was because he had already begun his attack.
"I will handle this, you just have to watch, husband"
"TOKUGAWA SWORD STYLE-1ST FORM"
Tokugawa Asahi Positions one of his katana in front of him and another one behind him. Then jumping toward Rani.
"RAGING STORM!!"
And with the help of Mana, Tokugawa Asahi spun very fast, creating a replica of a storm.
*FWOOSSH!*
the wind created by his technique was very Sharp, cutting everything in its way.
Taufik was very stunned at this sight, not because of the technique, but because of the way Tokugawa Asahi said it.
'That's so f*ucking Amazing!!! It's so "Anime" Looks like!'
Said Taufik in his mind, praising Tokugawa Asahi, who didn't feel Embarrassed to Say his Technique Name out loud.
But Rani has a different thought than Taufik; She shakes her head in disappointment.
"... Clown"
Rani said, Ignoring the wind that Tokugawa Asahi created, which couldn't even scratch her skin.
With her not-so-full power, Rani tightened the grip of his Dragon Fist.
And then when Tokugawa Asahi was close enough to her, Rani directly hit him.
"Bang!!"
"*Ughh!!*"
With that, Tokugawa Asahi was lying unconscious on the Ground, with his head impaled on the ground.
"..."
"..."
"...J-just like that? I didn't kill him...Right?"
Said Rani while looking at Tokugawa Asahi, who was helplessly lying on the Ground with just one punch from her.
Rani then Looked at Taufik, who was standing behind her.
"... He didn't die Right? Husband?"
"N-...
Taufik, who wanted to say something, Immediately stopped, Looking at the Sight that Happened behind Rani. excitement can be seen in his eyes; it was Like a kid who saw their Idol superhero right in front of their own eyes.
"...Husband? Wh-"
"I can't Die like this; there are still many people waiting for me, there are many people who put their hope on me; I will never Die... NEVER!!! AHHHH!!!"
*SWOOSSH!!*
Tokugawa Asahi suddenly received a power boost, which no one knows from where; a burst of Mana surrounded Tokugawa Asahi's body, creating a powerful Mana Wave.
"See? That's what I meant, he has a protagonist trait, That's what we call a 'Plot Armor', it's a 'canon' thing, Rani, you have to accept it"
Said Taufik to Rani, like that is the most "TRUE" thing that Rani has to accept.
"...Stupid"
Said Rani, then directly charged toward Tokugawa Asahi who still... Stupidly Roaring, with her fist ready.
"AHHHHHH!!!"
"SHUT UP!!"
"AHH- EH? W-WAIT! it shouldn't be like that, you nee- "
*Bang!!*
"*ughh*"
When Rani Fist touched Tokugawa Asahi's Face hard, very hard, he flew a few meters back, hit a big rock behind him, and once again fell unconscious.
"..."
"..."
"W-what have you done, Rani? How can you disturb him in the middle of a transformation?"
Said Taufik, who didn't believe what he had just witnessed.
"What do you mean? Can't I hit him?"
"*sigh* forget it! you won't understand even if I explain, let's just wait for him to wake up again, and ask if he knows something about Undine"
Said Taufik, then Walking toward the unconscious Tokugawa Asahi And Left Rani, who had a face that said, "What the Hell happened in here?" Kind of face.
