Akane's pov

"Alright that should do it~" I grinned wiping away the blood from my thumb as I slapped the ground, "Tiger Lilies, Fire wall"

That should keep them busy for now~

"...you spent hours just for this temporary barrier? This isn't even the right temple..." they growled as I made my way back to the city to buy myself something

"Hahh how many times should I say this...Senkoji Temple has 2 shrines one being the glorified tourist attraction and this other creepy one"

"But why are you doing this?? You could've made an actual veil instead of wasting time with this?!?" They screeched pointing behind us making me sigh

"Correction it's only been an hour and a half, if I had bring out the actual veil they'll be calling for help"

"And you would lose?"

"Pft the fuck? No, but I hate having my hands dirty in a fight" seriously I used to be able to finish without too much blood drenching me and I can't even get out a fight without my clothes dying on me
"If they lower their guard with that shit barrier, then it'll be an easy win with quick deaths~" why do they look surprised at my thought process

"...you set your blood for the temporary barrier as a bluff?"

"Yep~Nothing brings people together more than a common enemy and overbearing pride" I cheered as we finally arrived at our destination
Well it's more like mine but I digress

"I understand that but why are we now in this place...?"
We were in front of a 24 hour clinic that I'm just so glad exist near the temple

"Ahahaha you see," I pulled open my glasses that made them cringe at the sight,
"My eyes are very red as you can see, I need the aid of eyedroppers" I got them back on and made sure my mask covers my face well,

Essentially I need to look like a shady drug dealer but if I to rub my eyes any longer they'd probably just pop out of my eye sockets...

——a few minutes of shopping later——

I went over to the bench with a huff as Uraume appeared in front of me, arms crossed, eyes glaring, and a vocabulary book mouth to degrade me

"You're telling me need that insignificant liquid in order to raise the king...?" this feels like a courtroom...and I would know

"It's not my fault..." I trailed off, taking my glasses off and using two droppers at a time, "...that this shitty curse gives really dries up my eyes..."

As soon as I did I can see...everything...and it is painful... why is it even when people are sleeping I can still hear them...I JUST WANT TO COMMIT A CRIME

WHY CAN'T I HAVE THAT

"Fuck how did the old man deal with this..." I hissed overly blinking my pruned out eyes

"It took him a few years, you should consider trying to be like him in a few hours"

"Ok now you're just being unreasonable...ah it's almost midnight, your hand please"
