Chapter 67: The truth about the Rainy Mansion

“Hey, why don’t you leave this place already? Aren’t you bored staying here?”

That was what Chizuru always said to Satoshi. She herself knew very well that their relationship would end once he leaves that place.

Satoshi was just a personality floating in the toilet. Such unreliable existence was no match for Kengo, a living person. Once Satoshi leaves the toilet, he would definitely be absorbed back by Kengo and cease to exist.

“Go away! Or better yet, please just disappear from this place!”

Satoshi was pretending not to notice the anguish in her words. There was no way that she had feelings for him. Such audacious thought should be put away. Being together with her was something so inconceivable, more ridiculous than going on an adventure in Egypt.

But after seeing Akito and Toru who never stop loving Chizuru even after getting married and having kids, Satoshi started to feel annoyed with himself. What annoyed him more was Chizuru giving birth to a fatherless child.

Then all of a sudden, an opportunity had come – though Satoshi was unsure if it could really be called an opportunity.

After repeatedly witnessing Toru and Chizuru’s affair, Akito finally lost his patience and strangled her inside the storeroom. But eventually, Akito couldn’t bring himself to end her life.

After Akito left, Kengo happened to walk past the hallway. Satoshi realized that it was his only chance to use the fallible Kengo’s hands to kill Chizuru.

Even if he had become a separate personality without his original memories, both of them were basically the same person. Their hearts had always been connected to each other.

Just one more push, and she would be gone. Both Satoshi and Kengo thought so. Once she was gone, no one could ever win her heart anymore. And she wouldn’t bore another man’s child ever again.

Chizuru was barely breathing. Kengo used his hands to cover her mouth and nose while Chizuru stared straight at him. She reached out her shaky hand and stop right before it touched Kengo’s cheek.

Although Kengo’s hand was covering Cizuru’s mouth, he could see from her eyes that she was smiling. Tears were flowing down Kengo’s wrinkled cheek as he wondered why he was trying to kill this young woman.

Satoshi couldn’t stop his tears from falling but he continued to put strength into Kengo’s hand. He could sense someone was standing outside the storeroom but he didn’t have time to care about it.

“Hey, why don’t you leave this place already? Aren’t you bored staying here?”

He knew that he wouldn’t be able to listen to her gentle voice calling his name anymore if he continued to suffocate her. …He had a dream once. He was traveling on a desert far away. In that dream, his younger self and Chizuru was riding a camel.

Ayano was in the precipitated memories in the Rainy Mansion.

Natsu rarely interacted with her but she always treated all the kids inside the mansion fairly. There was one time when Ayano climbed up the veranda after playing and was scolded by Natsu because her hair was messy.

“Come here.”

Ayano followed Natsu into her room and saw her taking out a hand mirror from the drawer chest. Natsu then told Ayano to hold the mirror. It was a beautifully crafted red-colored round-shaped hand mirror.

Ayano was a bit surprised that Natsu had something like this. Natsu normally wore elegant but plain colored kimono, so Ayano didn’t expect that Natsu would have bright colored ornaments.

Ayano sat in an upright position while holding the mirror. Natsu sat behind her and started to comb her hair.

“Your hair is so pretty. Your mother also had beautiful hair and pretty face.”

Natsu continued to comb her hair without talking a word for a while.

“It’s done. A girl should always take good care of their appearance.”

After she finished tying up Ayano’s hair, Natsu put her bony fingers on Ayano’s shoulder. Inside the mirror, Ayano saw Natsu’s face reflected beside hers. Natsu was looking at Ayano with sharp eyes through the mirror.

“You are really— You have such a pretty face.”

When Natsu passed away, all family members received remembrance token, an article that belong to the deceased when she was alive. And somehow, that hand mirror was given to Ayano.

Actually, Ayano could guess why the mirror was given to her. Natsu had always know about everything. Natsu must have known who Ayano’s father was. That was why Natsu cursed her – it was actually a warning.

Ayano must not fall in love with Takato.

Ayano must not fall in love with her half-brother, Takato.

Natsu had been watching over Ayano, a child born from the woman she hated and the grandson she loved, from inside the mirror.

Natsu let out a sigh before saying, “In the end, it seems the great grandchildren that I’m most worried about was you.”

Takato’s face tuned pale when he heard the sentence.

“Well then. It is time for me to leave. I believe you all will protect this storeroom,” Natsu said.

“… Natsu-san.” Natsu heard a soft voice calling out her name. Satoshi showed himself at the corner of the hallway. “Natsu-san.”

Satoshi had finally left the toilet. He picked up a comb that was on the ground nearby Natsu’s feet and held it out to her. “Is this thing unnecessary to you? I know I’m insensitive and this was my first and last gift to you.”

Natsu took the comb and stared at it fixedly. The next moment, Ayano realized she was standing at the veranda under the bright summer sunlight. Next to her, Natsu was sitting while watching the garden.

“I was born in the summer. That is why my name is Natsu. I once complained to my parents for giving me a name perfunctorily but they told me that they gave me that name because the summer sky seen from here was so pretty on the day I was born.

Even though I’m like this, my parents loved me. After my first marriage failed, my father arranged for me to marry Kengo. It was not for my family business. It was because he knew I like Kengo. Well, for Kengo, it must have been a nuisance though.”

Natsu smiled gently unlike her usual self. It gave a different vibe from the constantly serious Natsu who lived as the heir of the Rainy Mansion.

Ayano had a feeling that this must be Natsu’s true self. “Everyone likes you, Natsu-sama. They respect you.”

Well, it was more like respect out of fear actually.

“Even if the family admire me, the heart of my most important person was never mine.” Natsu held a red colored hand mirror on her knees. “Everyone thought this mirror was a worthless gift from others because it didn’t fit my style. They thought I kept it because I didn’t want to waste. But they were wrong. I bought this mirror myself.

It was my only luxury in my whole life. No— Perhaps the true luxury I had was forcing Kengo to marry me.” Natsu looked at her face shown in the mirror and sneered at herself. “If only I was a bit prettier.”

“Natsu-sama. You are beautiful.” A voice suddenly came from behind them.

    Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) has luteinizing
    hormone (LH) activity that stimulates endogenous testosterone manufacturing in men,
    but not women 27. Exogenous human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is broadly out there, and
    effective when administered twice weekly as a subcutaneous injection. Finally, excessive dosages of testosterone precursors such dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) increase testosterone production and circulating testosterone concentrations.

    A balanced food regimen and healthy way of life might help scale back body fats and
    achieve health objectives. It’s important for ladies considering Anavar to pay attention to these potential dangers.
    Another potential facet impact of Anavar use is bone pain, which may be significantly concerning for these with osteoporosis or different bone-related conditions.
    This can result in signs such as acne, oily skin, and increased body hair progress.

    Oral anabolic steroids have a a lot shorter half-life and recovery of the HPG
    axis is predicted much faster. Although anabolic steroids are by far probably the most abused drugs, a variety of different performance and image-enhancing medication are generally
    used (2, 3). These can be categorized as muscle builders, fats burners, pre-workout brokers and brokers to stop or treat unwanted side effects.

    Depending on the nature and dose of those brokers, additional antagonistic well being results can be expected.
    Similar to AAS, most of these merchandise are illegally obtained and their quality must be questioned.
    Furthermore, scientific proof supporting the claimed effects is
    mostly absent. Steroids are often utilized by bodybuilders and
    athletes to increase muscle mass and enhance efficiency.

    Plus, it helps with endurance, making these grueling exercises a bit more manageable.
    So, we’ve looked at what is Equipoise, the advantages,
    cycles, dosages, and side effects. It may even trigger fluctuations in LDL
    cholesterol, which may trigger blocked arteries, so that
    is definitely worth contemplating before utilizing the steroids, especially if you already have cardiovascular points.

    Consulting with a healthcare skilled skilled in anabolic steroid usage is
    extremely beneficial to ensure personalised steerage and monitoring.
    By following responsible usage protocols, being aware of
    potential side effects, and employing applicable mitigation strategies, individuals can mitigate dangers and maximize the benefits of Primobolan.
    Moreover, Methenolone aids in enhancing endurance and stamina, permitting athletes
    to push their limits and sustain peak performance for longer durations.
    Its positive effects on purple blood cell production facilitate improved oxygen delivery to the muscular tissues, resulting in better efficiency and quicker restoration occasions.
    Whether in endurance-based sports activities or actions requiring explosive energy,
    Methenolone has demonstrated its capability
    to optimize performance and supply athletes with a competitive edge.

    This is due to the compound inflicting an preliminary surge in free testosterone ranges, protein synthesis, and
    glycogenesis. Dbol additionally will increase intracellular water retention, which is proven to extend muscular strength and practical efficiency (1).
    Furthermore, people report that anabolic steroids (like Dianabol)
    can be purchased in Thailand for a fraction of the worth in comparability with the US and UK, causing many bodybuilders
    to take steroid holidays to this a half of Asia.
    There may be a lot of misunderstanding about how drug testing for steroids and performance-enhancing medicine works.
    Many assume it’s a easy matter of supplying
    a urine (or blood) sample, having the sample despatched to
    a lab, and being put by way of a machine that magically detects every substance.
    Fortuitously for athletes and bodybuilders, however not so fortuitously for anti-doping authorities,
    it is far from such a simple and basic process.

    Normal levels of testosterone are important for development and overall wellbeing.

    Physicians ought to pay attention to the clinical and underground
    worlds of AASs and, as with opioids and different potential
    drugs of abuse, mustn’t permit the abuse of these drugs to limit their applicable therapeutic use.

    SERMs act as an oestrogen or an anti-oestrogen, relying on the exposed tissue.
    The results of SERMs haven’t been studied extensively in men and long-term results are unknown. In men, aromatisation of testosterone to oestradiol is
    vital to reach and preserve bone mass, and the long-term effects of SERM administration on bone health in hypo-
    or eugonadal males haven’t been established. Additionally, there’s
    evidence that sexual function in men depends on the
    mixed results of androgens and oestrogens (21).

    Although detrimental effects of SERMs on sexual operate in males have not been reported in small and short-term research (22), these effects cannot
    be excluded. If testosterone levels usually are not
    very low and signs are properly tolerated, ready for spontaneous restoration of the HPG axis is advised.
    If signs are not well tolerated, endogenous testosterone production may
    be stimulated by prescribing tamoxifen 20 mg as soon as
    daily or clomiphene 50 mg once daily for several weeks.
    In a study from our group (Pope et al., 2004), 20 (56%) of
    36 AAS customers reported that that they had never disclosed their
    AAS use to any physician that that they had seen. Most individuals with present or
    previous AAS use are younger males (Brower, 2002; Kutscher et al., 2002; Pope and Brower, 2005), but
    some – especially those that first started AAS
    within the Nineteen Eighties – at the second are reaching middle age.
    Although many of these older men not use AAS, accumulating evidence means that they may still be weak to long-term
    psychiatric and medical effects from their former drug use.
    In this paper, we propose that these results could pose a growing public well being concern, as massive numbers of
    these males move into center age and beyond.
