“I’ll be seeing you soon, Kawaki. Enjoy your freedom while you still have control. It will not be long before that body belongs to me.”
Next: @RubianPrincess
— the ancient monk only stood there, watching the boy pick up his lifeless friend in his arms. he folded his arms across his chest looking on as it it were another day.
“But, I thought she was a resilient Rubian prodigy, Kawaki? Surely a little cold won’t kill
he squinted and a portal opened, no longer caring about what he wanted from here on out. “i'm getting her away from here. if she doesn't survive, i'll come back here and kill you.” she had to wake up..
her, will it? If it does, you have no one to blame but yourself. You are the one who chose to defy me and run off. Are you surprised I didn’t resort to such measures?”
— Jigen lightly scoffed at Kawaki’s threats. clearly he underestimated the power of 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮.
Go in and retrieve her.
As for the time I have left? More time than Rainy Rubius.”
— once Kawaki pushed open the door, he’d find Rainy laying on the ground covered in ice crystals. her body a shade of blue. Jigen had been slowly freezing her to death until Kawaki complied.
— the confirmation he was waiting for. his thin lips curled into a sinister grin. that bastard Momoshiki was right. Kawaki did indeed love the Princess. how did Isshiki not see such a thing or perhaps he didn’t care about such trivial things?
“I see. . .
footsteps continued on, his silent and deadly while kawaki was not as light on his feet. the sounds of his feet shuffling along echoed in the winding hallways. “how much time do you have left? am i expected to remain here?”
Seems I must reunite you sooner than not.”
— Jigen placed his palm against a nearby wall. upon doing so, a door appeared. cold mist escaped from the door itself, as if signaling that it was very cold from within.
“The Princess is right behind this door.
“My time is running out, Delta. The vessel must be secured at all costs. I have to say, I’m surprised the boy hasn’t come running yet. His dear friend Rainy Rubius is in a critical state.”
— a final sip of his wine before arising to a stance from his chair. he causally made his way toward Kawaki. not a smile or a glare. an unreadable countenance as always. those dark pearl hues settled upon the youth.
“𝚅𝚎𝚛𝚢 𝚠𝚎𝚕𝚕. 𝙸
this man was a monster and he could've taken kawaki whenever he wanted. this was just a game to him. “what happens when jigen the monk dies and isshiki the bastard is stored inside of me? what will you do?”
— Jigen knew exactly the kind of game he was playing. all a gamble. the clock was ticking for the Princess. each second waste was a moment more she had to endure the frozen tundra.
— he took another small sip from his wine before lowering it back down to the table.
able to access the situation and reel back his aggression. a tough decision when someone he loved was in danger. was this the influence of uzumaki naruto?

— Jigen enjoyed being an absolute jerk to Kawaki, mainly because his dear friend, Princess Rainy Rubius, was in a very critical situation.
— how 𝓮𝔁𝓹𝓮𝓬𝓽𝓮𝓭. right on time. the ancient monk was there sipping on his red wine, while enjoying his dinner. Jigen was enjoying a bite of his medium-rare steak; s͞t͞o͞r͞e͞d͞ to perfection. so delectable he closed his eyes to savor the flavor.
“𝙶𝚘𝚘𝚍 𝚐𝚛𝚒𝚎𝚏, 𝙺𝚊𝚠𝚊𝚔𝚒. 𝙽𝚎𝚎𝚍 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚋𝚎 𝚜𝚘 𝚍𝚛𝚊𝚖𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚌 𝚠𝚑𝚎𝚗 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚖𝚊𝚔𝚎 𝚊𝚗 𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚗𝚌𝚎? 𝙰𝚕𝚕 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚑𝚊𝚍 𝚝𝚘 𝚍𝚘 𝚠𝚊𝚜 𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚎𝚊𝚛 𝚋𝚎𝚏𝚘𝚛𝚎 𝚖𝚎.”
— he took another sip of his wine before addressing the boy calmly.
