Two More Fullbringers

Sawada Iemitsu went to the convenience store again to buy a case of beer, while Noelle quietly went back through the room window, put away her equipment, closed the violin case, and then went to the study.

The door was half-open, and Noelle could see inside the room without even going in. Tsuna wasn't waiting for her inside. Was that person in the distance really Sawada Tsunayoshi?

With these questions in mind, Noelle walked towards the living room. Tsuna's archery position was farther than hers, and with Noelle's own flying magic, she believed that as long as Tsuna wasn't home, the person who saved her must be Sawada Tsunayoshi.

Before Noelle could delve deeper into her speculation, she heard Tsuna's voice in the living room. Tsuna was chatting and laughing with Tatsuki, showing no signs of having just been through a battle.

"Hey, Shinbashi-kun, dinner's almost ready, let's eat." Tsuna raised his hand to greet Noelle, his attitude completely different from when he was questioning Noelle earlier.

"I understand." Noelle suppressed her curiosity to ask more questions. Sawada Nana was right next to her, Sawada Iemitsu didn't want to involve Nana in these strange events for the time being.

"Is something the matter? You can tell me if you need any help." Seeing Noelle's hesitant expression, Tatsuki asked. As a fellow girl, Tatsuki's help would be more convenient.

Tatsuki had noticed the sound of Noelle flying away earlier. She was quite interested in Noelle's flying broom and looked forward to communicating with Noelle.

"Nothing."

Noelle stood quietly to the side, and just as the atmosphere was about to become awkward, Sawada Iemitsu returned.

"Oh dear, it's been so long since I've been back. Karakura Town has changed so much, I even got lost." Iemitsu wiped the sweat from his brow, lying through his teeth.

Sawada Iemitsu's performance was quite good; at least he gained Nana's approval, if you ignore his dirty clothes and sweat.

Iemitsu quickly washed up and changed his clothes. The dinner party proceeded as usual, and everything was developing in the manner of a normal gathering. During the meal, only Noelle's gaze kept falling on Tsuna.

Tsuna and Tatsuki exchanged a glance. They understood that Noelle was about to succumb to her curiosity, so they decided to just be frank.

"Mom, don't rush to clean up. Let's sit in the living room for a while." Tsuna stopped Nana's Mom from cleaning up the mess Tsuna her to sit on the sofa in the living room with everyone else.

"You two are being so serious, are you planning something really big for us?"

Iemitsu's eyes kept scanning Tsuna and Tatsuki. The only thing he couldn't let go of when he was away from home was these two children, fearing that they might do something he couldn't control when they got too emotional.

"This is quite a big job, Dad. This isn't the first time you've encountered a Hollow, is it?" Tsuna asked seriously.

"Hollow?" Iemitsu's expression changed. He had already connected it to those suddenly appearing monsters. He glanced at Nana subtly. "What are you talking about?"

"Dad, excessive protection isn't truly effective protection. The fact that you can attract attacks from the void means that Mom is also a potential target."

Tsuna's words immediately changed Iemitsu's expression, but Nana still asked innocently, "Little Tsuna, what are you talking about? I don't understand?"

"The first time I encountered those monsters in London was when no one could see them, and they only chased after me. Later, I was rescued by a man in military uniform, and from him, I learned that they were creatures called dragons." Sawada Iemitsu slowly recounted his story from London.

"Later, we became neighbors with Noelle- chan. One morning, I was attacked by another dragon, and thanks to Noelle- chan's help, I survived."

"I learned from Noelle that I have a constitution called ' Dragon Rider,' which attracts dragon attacks. I've kept this a secret to protect Nana." At this point, Iemitsu suddenly screamed, "Ouch! That hurts!"

"Honey, aren't you underestimating me? We agreed before the business trip that we'd face whatever comes our way together!" Nana scolded Iemitsu with a rare serious expression.

"I'm sorry, honey..."

"Alright, stop your lovey-dovey stuff and go back to your room." Tsuna forcefully stopped his parents from openly displaying their affection, Tsuna asked Noelle, "That creature that attacked Dad earlier, what do you call it?"

Noelle nodded and said, "Yes, dragons. Generally, dragons are divided into two types: light dragons and Dark Dragon. Light dragons will not harm humans, while Dark Dragon may randomly kill humans. That humanoid dragon from before was Dark Dragon."

"I guess 'dragon' is what you call it in London. In Japan, those creatures are called Hollows. Most Hollows are capable of attacking humans with high spiritual pressure. My dad was one of those."

"Tsuna, how do you know all this? Wait, Noelle said someone saved us, could it be...?" Iemitsu's mind was very sharp, and he immediately connected the dots.

"I shot the arrow that killed the Hollow." As he spoke, Tsuna tapped the ring hanging around his neck with his fingertip, Fullbring, and G's Bow and Arrow were displayed directly in front of everyone.

Needless to say, the Sawada couple were astonished to see their son possess such a miraculous ability for the first time. Noelle was equally shocked, as she was witnessing an ability beyond magic for the first time.

"It's my fault, Dad. Your high spiritual pressure is influenced by me. Similarly, as my family, Mom's spiritual pressure must also be extraordinary. The reason she hasn't been attacked by a Hollow yet is probably because Mom is just very lucky."

"Huh? Me?" Nana asked, pointing to herself in a cute way.

"There's a way to verify this, Shinbashi-kun. Could you bring out that Hollow with you? You mean that thing you used as a flying broom?"

Noelle paused for a moment. The reason she hid her flight partner was to avoid the sight of irrelevant people. Now that everyone knew about it, there was nothing left to hide.

Before long, Noelle's dragon companions arrived in the living room, immediately eliciting gasps from Nana and Tatsuki.

"Kawaii!"

Tsuna gave his father a look, and Iemitsu knew that hiding it was pointless, as Nana had the same constitution as him.

"Tsuna, why do you know so much about dragons and Hollows?!"

After accepting the truth, Iemitsu's mind became very clear. With her husband's reminder, Nana also looked at Tsuna with a worried expression.

"Little Tsuna, you're not going to keep fighting those monsters, are you?" Even though she hadn't seen the Hollows attacking the people, Nana couldn't help but worry about her son possibly being in danger.

Seeing Nana's appearance, Iemitsu sighed. This was why he didn't want Nana to know; he didn't want Nana to worry about them all the time.

"Don't worry, Aunt Nana, Tsuna has ten years of combat experience. There's no Hollow in Karakura Town that can defeat Tsuna," Tatsuki comforted her.

"Ten years, Masaga!" Nana covered her mouth, unable to believe her own guess.

"Yes, ever since I moved to Karakura Town, I've been fighting Hollows," Tsuna admitted directly.

"Little Tsuna, have you been doing these dangerous things all this time?!" This was the first time Tsuna had seen an angry expression on Nana's face.

"There's no other way. If we don't fight, Aunt Masa might die."

Tsuna's explanation pulled Nana's memories back to every rainy night when Tsuna was in elementary school. "So, you always forced yourself to go out in the rain just so you could do that?"

Nana isn't stupid. She could tell from the beginning that something was off about Tsuna going out in the rain. But since Tsuna always came back safely, she accepted the explanation that it was club activity. Now, putting it all together, it seems that Tsuna was fighting monsters in the rain.

"Mom doesn't blame you. Protecting others starts with protecting yourself, okay?" Nana returned to her gentle demeanor. No matter what, Tsuna's importance in her heart was irreplaceable by any outsider.

"Aunt Nana, Tsuna has saved a lot of people along the way, including me. It was with Tsuna's help that I embarked on the path of protecting Karakura Town," Tatsuki said, patting his chest.

"Tatsuki, you also have magical powers?" Iemitsu asked in surprise.

Tatsuki didn't answer, but directly unleashed the power of the first stage of Fullbring and donned an illusory karate uniform.

"This is why I'm coming clean with you, Mom and Dad. Tatsuki, too, has a higher spiritual pressure than ordinary people because she's been hanging out with me since childhood. With my help, she gained the ability to fight Hollows. We call this power Fullbring!"

"Dad still has a job abroad. Instead of living in fear, it's better to acquire the strength to fight back. Similarly, you don't need to worry about Mom's safety."

After hearing Tsuna's answer, Iemitsu finally understood the reason behind Tsuna's revelation. He sat up straight and asked solemnly, "Can we also wield such power?"

"I wouldn't dare say for others, but you've lived with me for so long that you're already at the level to learn the Fullbring."

"The reason I didn't teach you in the past is the same as what you thought, Father: I didn't want to drag you into the world of fighting against the Void."

"I just didn't expect that you would still face dangers even after going abroad. In that case, the power of Fullbring is necessary."

"I understand, please be sure to teach us." This was Lao Tzu's request to his son.

As Tsuna prepared to begin teaching Fullbring, Noelle, who had been silent for a while, asked, "Should I excuse myself?"

"No need. On the contrary, I'd like to have more conversations with you, Shinbashi-kun. I'm also very interested in that last shot you fired," Tsuna said.

"You mean Magic #31?"

After hearing Noelle's words, Tsuna pondered for a moment, then held up his palm. "Magic? Does this move look familiar to you?"

"Way of Destruction No. 31: Red Fire Cannon!"

A crimson fireball appeared in Tsuna's palm, its shape remarkably similar to the blue cannonball fired by Noelle, differing only in its appearance.

Even Noelle was filled with doubt, "Is magic called 'Hadō' in Japan?"
