"Mnnn," Damn Guangyao and his absolutely valid way of winning him over through his stomach. It worked when they had first met in Hakagemachi and it was still working now. "You sure you can handle another drink? You already seem pretty lushed up."

Not that he was one to talk. But he at least felt he could handle one or two more.

"It's weird. But I think out of all the worlds I've heard about ours has an almost stupid amount in common," The existence of yao, cultivation, science and magic abound. Although Gojyo was able to feel out that his world was a little more scientifically advanced. But still, out of everyone he spoke to, it was interesting that the people he always happened to find the most in common with were the people from Guangyao's world. Maybe it was because it felt like they came from a similar region as well? "I sloppily learned how to sense and read spiritual energy. Mostly through being around a lot of people who already knew how to. Never been much good at any of that fancy power stuff though."

He could control Shakujo pretty well. But that was due to years of practice and experience. But usually he mostly just relied on his brute force and the fact that he was always surprisingly resilient. But considering the type of person he was, he always felt like not being so spiritually inclined was something that was inherently broken about him.

Even if only half, he was still what he was. So why couldn't he do what came so naturally to most others?
