>>5216641“Chaya, what happened to you?” you ask your daughter, shocked by the condition she was clearly in before being healed. Caulifla clearly had given her another magical healing item that she'd taken to Dreadzone at one point too in case of getting messed up, but this level of abuse she'd withstood is insane. She appears to have been beaten and flayed far worst than she did in her battle against that Stand-wielding Sangheili bastard she'd taken down years ago. “I thought you were going to be fighting someone you'd handled easily before?”
“I did. And she's gotten a lot better, too.” your eldest daughter tells you enthusiastically. “She had a whole buncha new swords and stuff, including some that cut me without ever actually hitting me. Those were a real pain. But they weren't even the craziest weapons she had!”
You listen to Chaya as she describes the battle excitedly, the many twists and turns it took, and all the surprises the swordswoman Erza had in store for your daughter. By the time she's finished, all of your students have left, leaving only your family and Raditz, who showed up mid-story, here.
“It was soooo cool!” Kayle shouts excitedly, waving her arms. “Big sis was all, 'Pow, blam! Kaboom!”
“Yeah!” Maz agrees, just as excited as his sister was during Chaya's retelling. “All those swords flyin' around like Momma's Eyes were super cool!”
“It was a close fight.” you hear Broly say, off to the side. Then so low you almost missed it, he adds. “Too close.”
“It was the best fight I had in a long time!” Chaya says excitedly. “But of course I still came out on top. No matter what kinda fancy tricks they try, nobody there's strong enough to beat me!”
“Maybe not, but it's best not to get overconfident.” you say to her cautiously. “Never know who's hiding their true strength, and just waiting for their chance to strike.”
“Good to see you made it back, but we've got to get going.” Chilli then says, catching you a bit off guard. “We've got to get back to the village.”
“Already?” Caulifla asks, looking shocked and more than a little hurt by his announcement. “Are you sure?”
“Yeah, I'm sure Cauli.” he says, bracing himself as she rockets herself directly at him. He actually reaches back and grabs Megumin by the wrist just before impact, as the force of her charge into him creates a decently-sized shock wave. It would have blown the much less powerful Crimson Demon away, were it not for his grip on her. As soon as the blast ends he lets her go, and hugs his now-crying little sister. “But we're hopefully gonna have the house finished up and ready in about a week, and you and everybody can come and see it.”
