Kurenai shyly hummed, unaware and unsure if it was a procedure. She agreed that her chest had indeed been saved from all those debris.
She could still stick them out of her dress slightly and make it into a good cleavage.
…
Reko lowered his face down, close to Kurenai's waist, using his mystic palm jutsu to clean up her wounds.
His hands emitted the ethereal glow of mystic palm as slowly began to clean the wounds and heal them.
'He is too close.'
Kurenai had her hands on her breasts, covering the front as Reko operated on her. Her eyes peeked at Reko.
'Why am I feeling nervous? It's just a medical procedure. Nothing to be conscious of.'
She had been single for a while and it was obvious that the contact with a strong male was making her nervous, tingling.
'Is it done already? It feels as if he is massaging me.'
Kurenai glanced at Reko. He seemed to be examining her stomach and waist and it strangely felt good to her and she knew why.
His hands were dangerously close to her lower abdomen, even rubbing against her vagina at times.
"The injury to your body is only surface level. Few particles managed to pierce through your muscles in the abdomen but I have removed them."
A few minutes passed and Reko announced that he was done with the procedure. It took him some time but he had closely examined Kurenai and she was all good.
Nothing to worry about.
"Thank you."
Kurenai mumbled as she used her fingers to check on her abdomen, the injuries on her skin were no more. It felt smooth and soft as new.
"Surprisingly…"
Reko mumbled looking at Kurenai.
"Surprisingly?"
Kurenai asked, curious to know what Reko would say.
"Your skin feels really soft. Your body is strong like a Jonin, yet it feels so good to touch."
He trailed his hands through her lower waist to the abdomen as he commented, feeling her up.
"Soft?? That is… Because I am a lady. It has to be soft."
'I thought he was talking about my breasts. They do indeed feel soft. Even right now, I want to give them a squeeze.'
'It is probably because of the treatment but I am feeling really good right now. It's getting difficult to not show it.'
Kurenai paused in shock before speaking. Her skin was soft and felt good tho touch. Though, she had never been complemented in such a unique way.
"Yeah? It feels really good to touch."
Reko nodded at her words, agreeing with her.
"You got injuries that you want me to check out? I can fix them in an instant."
He asked in case she was injured somewhere else too.
Kurenai felt around, stood up and moved her body. She was perfectly healthy and decided that no further treatment was needed.
"Let's move. We are close to completing the mission. It's better to remain cautious and reach the destination."
While checking her body for injuries, she glanced around and found that the client was peeking from the window of the carriage.
She covered up, wearing the spare clothes she had prepared as contingencies.
"All okay? Good."
Reko said before he too decided to focus on getting to the destination.
'That lecherous guy!!'
Reko glanced at the man inside the carriage. That guy was very much ogling at Kurenai while she was being examined by him.
Once aware, Kurenai could not be comfortable to be treated in open anymore and thus denied of any discomfort.
'If not for him shamelessly ogling at her, I would have gotten her comfortable enough.'
Reko was very aware that she was feeling it. He could feel her body heat up as he caressed her body. He could very well feel the quickening of her breathing as he healed her.
The urgency of mission made him loose this chance.
'That aside. Where is the mission from the Root? I did not see any members of that faction.'
Putting those things aside, Reko thought about Danzo and his mission. It was nearing the end of the mission.
By his nature, he should have already sent the shinobis to him already.
'Is there another mission waiting for me after I complete this one on my way back?'
Reko thought curiously, there was a possibility that he would be handed the mission after completing this one? He was not sure.
'No, that would be very suspicious. Kurenai would be able to guess that much.'
'Was it perhaps to test my strength?? Unfortunately, I am unable to sense the enemies.
Even the extra shadow clones I made did not manage to spot an enemy in hiding.'
His other guess was that the root members were already nearby. But instead of giving him the mission, they were checking and verifying his real strength.
Unfortunately for Reko, he had no sensory ninjutsu as of yet, making him unable to verify this theory. For this reason, he had even formed shadow clones while in the battle. They were supposed to stay underground and sense the changes in earth to look for hidden enemies.
The shadow clones did not manage to find any and finally helped in the battle against those enemies.
'I completed the quest. That's the only good thing that has happened today.
Let's see….'
As Reko continued to travel, he checked on his system screen. There was this sudden quest to eliminate the enemy shinobis within five minutes.
Reko easily completed the mission in under two minutes. His attacks were lethal and he had gotten the first blood in his first attack, shortening the battle time.
'Almost 14000 points of chakra. This is good enough to survive against Kage level enemies.'
The total chakra reserves he had was around 14000. He had worked hard and grown it with training. With this high chakra reserves, he could keep spamming jutsu and survive against even Kage level shinobis as long as he maintained the distance.
'The rest of the levels remain the same. Especially the curse mode, it's still level one. And from what I sensed during the battle, there is no way I am going to force use the next level.'
The rewards were good but there was no progress with the curse mode he had gotten from one of the subjects of Orochimaru.
The curse mode showed no progress in level. It did not level up even after he used it in the battle. From his experience, any jutsu that he used in combat would level up easily but Reko had a feeling that this was it for the curse mark.
Sighing, Reko put aside the thought of leveling up curse mode for a while. By his total chakra reserves, he could call his summon Hamster king and request for assistance in learning sage mode.
From what that guy had said, Reko's chakra was already there.
'If I learn the Sage mode then what is the use of this Curse mode? The sage mode is obviously superior and more versatile.'
'Also, the sage mode is one of the solution to my lack of sensory ninjutsu.'
He left the topic of leveling curse mode aside for now. It was his trump card and it did not seem like he was going to need it now.
The requirements to learn Sage mode was all there. He had enough chakra, chakra control, and strong physique. The only thing he lacked was the initiation. The help from the sage mode practitioner to instruct him was all he needed.
As for controlling nature's energy? The curse mode has given him a good measure of how it worked.
And in the worst case scenario where he could not even manage to learn it, he could just Steal it.
Just as he thought of using his kekkei genkai, he checked how the charges had changed after the battle.
'Only three charges??'
He was curious to see how the excess charges would get treated but did not have the resources to try it out.
Now that he had eliminated four shinobis, he found out that the number of charges did not increase, the total charges remained three.
Instead…
'One Jonin level and two Chunin levels? I see.'
Going by the levels, every one of the enemy was above Chunin level, elite Chunin but less than a Jonin.
The fourth charge did not go to waste but got stacked together and became a Jonin level charge. A truly fortunate surprise because Reko could not bear losing a Chunin level charge.
"All good then."
Reko mumbled in relief. With this, he was set to learn Sage mode after completing this mission.
"You were saying something?"
Kurenai glanced back and asked Reko. She heard him say something and hence called.
"Hmm? No."
Reko shook his head. He was not calling for her. He had just muttered lightly to himself.
'She has gotten really sensitive from the incident that time.
Is she dating Asuma at the moment? It's still two years before the Pain arc and Asuma's death is sometime after that.'
He had got some plans for Kurenai. He did not have that much interest in her earlier. But after healing her, he changed his mind for better.
Anyways, it did seem to him that she was giving him attention. Her constant peeking, and her sensitive hearing were proof of that.
