“Okay, not exactly...” Minoru often liked to keep an ace up his sleeve in case something went south. But Ariana had already seen his Sage Mode, so this wasn’t too much information compared to that. He held up his tattooed wrist again. “I can go back whenever I want. But I need their help to go anywhere else.”
Minoru owed that ability, not to his teachers, but to his brother Isamu - who reverse engineered the summoning seal and overlaid it with one of his own. Minoru couldn’t even begin to fathom the kind of things Isamu and a lot of the rest of his clan were capable of, sometimes. He’d Inherited the fire breathing, but that was about it.
As to whether he was followed, or that someone else from Ryuuchi Cave was responsible for the destruction she’d been caught up in, Minoru sincerely hoped that wasn’t the case.
“I mean, it’s possible. But I think we’d have seen a giant snake by now...”
When Minoru referenced the Great Snake Lord Elders, he meant that literally. Human students were actually a rarity there. Most humans who attempt to learn that power and take it for themselves do not survive the first lesson.
