Chapter 559: The Mysterious Shoguns
-----
The Walker, an enigmatic figure, a man that is said to look like a run-of-the-mill homeless man that walks around using his powers to manipulate spacetime. With them, he had gained himself the nickname of "The Walker" because he walks through all paths and cannot be stopped by any sort of barrier or wall.
He walks through space and time, of course, so there is nowhere where he cannot walk. He is also said to be an innate nomadic man, he likes to wander around the world aimlessly, although Frank quickly realized that he is not an aimless man at all. With his very words the old man had said that he protected the entirety of Japan from "the outside" as if the entirety of the world was some kind of dangerous place or something, even though there are many other countries.
So what is he protecting? Its certainly unlikely that everywhere except Japan is just some sort of wasteland, right? So what could it even be what he referred to?
As Frank pondered these questions and was introduced in more detail about the strongest of the Four Shogun of Japan, The Walker himself watched over him for a little bit as he walked away.
Suddenly, Alexander, who was a sharp kid with a power that allowed him to even defy The Walker\'s spacetime magic glared at him. The beautiful boy\'s big and glowing starlight eyes shone with sharpness… he was so young yet he seemed to be rather fierce when protecting his family.
The Walker looked down at the kid as he felt his pressure.
"My, my, this kid is really a problem… Well, to be expected of a quarter Overseer… He also got a crazy Trait to boot, I am left speechless, I guess I don\'t have to worry so much about the future when there\'s a kid this strong around… Sigh, fine, fine, I am going away, don\'t look at me like that, kid, you shouldn\'t have such malice at a young age…" sighed the old homeless man, a gentle smile surged on his lips as he suddenly teleported away.
Alexander sighed in relief right after that, as he rubbed his face over his father\'s shoulder and then kissed his cheek while cuddling with him.
"Papa… I will protect you…" he said cutely.
"Eh? A-Alex?" wondered Frank, feeling rather surprised by his little son desire to protect his father.
"I suppose he\'s just shocked from what happened, he had gone out of his way to break the space that the Walker himself made… Alexander\'s powers might even surpass that man in the future…" said Kaguya.
"Wow, you got a very talented baby, Frank." Said Matsuo.
"Hehe, of course!" said Frank with a bright smile.
"Alexander…" sighed Gwendolyn, feeling rather worried about her son.
Meanwhile, The Walker walked through space time in a place named Hyperspace, a tunnel within two different areas of spacetime which he walked leisurely, step by step.
"Yawn…"
He grabbed a floating bottle around, there were actually floating bottles everywhere, and even a chair, which he sat over to drink.
"Hm? Ah this one is empty… Let\'s see… this one? Empty… this one? Empty… Ugh… Hmm… how about this one! Ah, this is my favorite liquor, please have something on it!" muttered The Walker, looking at yet another empty bottle.
"Sigh… No booze… How will I get through the trauma that fox kid left on me now?" he sighed, as if he were despairing. Despite his strength, he was a very hardcore alcoholic.
The Hyperspace around him had been used as his temporary home for several years now. Since he discovered his powers that he had escaped from the harsh and cold streets of Japan and has been living in this space which seems to look rather cosmic, stars, planets, sometimes even Divine Beasts of Space Attribute crawl around here, it is a nice and cute place to be… Or so he thinks.
He quickly walked back to his floating bed, pushing it down and resting over it.
"Ah, my job is done, fueling the barrier really puts a strain on me… I might as well take a nap…" he sighed, quickly cuddling in the mess of a bed he got.
…
Flash!
However, another figure emerged inside, looking down at him.
It seemed to be feminine, and had long red hair, sharp crimson-red eyes, and strange tattoos across her body. She emanated a strong fiery aura, stronger than anything.
"Ah… It got so hot out of the sudden… Did I turned on the air conditioner?" he wondered, as the man began to sweat profoundly.
The girl looked down at him with sharp eyes, her entire figure growing more and more blazing with flames, as her aura continued to become like a sea of fire.
"…"
"Agh! Okay, what do you want?! Can\'t a man sleep for once?! Also, why can\'t you greet me like normal people? Did you really need to burn me alive?" he asked.
"Makoto, you\'re not in the position to actually tell me that I am unpolite when you didn\'t even noticed me when I got here…" said the girl.
"D-Don\'t call me by my name! I go by The Walker, The Walker! Or do you want me to call you Yukihime?" asked the man.
"I go by The Flame!" cried the girl.
"You got a weird nickname anyways! Who would even call themselves "The Flame" anyways!" asked Makoto.
"And why would you call me Yukihime?! Ice Princess does not go at all with my abilities!" she cried.
"Ugh, kid, give me a break. What do you want?" asked the man.
"I came here to check you out. I see that you already went to talk with the Source? The World Traveler?" asked the girl.
"yep, that\'s all done and over with, so you can go away, we don\'t need you here." He said.
"You bastard, I even brought you some of your favorite rice wine… Fine, goodbye." Sighed the woman.
"Eh?! W-Wait! Didn\'t I told you your eyes are the prettiest when you get angry?" he asked.
"You Casanova…" sighed the girl.
