If ordinary people saw this scene, they would surely condemn the black-haired girl. A nimble young girl attacking a white-haired elder so ruthlessly, every strike aid to kill—it seed utterly insane.
Yet Kure Henzo wasn't surprised. To him, this was completely normal. Though the girl's attacks were fierce and vicious, they didn't harm the elder at all. The old man stood calmly, casually blocking every strike.
"Speak. What is it?"
Hearing clan leader Erioh's question, Henzo quickly said: "Just now, we received news that a fighter has joined the Yukinoshita family."
"Oh?" Erioh was surprised. "Soone still dares to join them? Who is this fighter?"
Henzo replied slowly: "According to our investigation, the fighter who joined is… a high school student."
The black-haired girl attacking Erioh stopped instantly. "A high school student? The sa age as ?"
Kure Henzo nodded.
Karura, excited, said: "Grandfather, can I take care of him?"
Erioh's cheerful face darkened imdiately. "No. Absolutely not."
"Why?" Kure Karura asked, confused. "Do you think I'm not his match?"
Erioh never thought that. His granddaughter, though young, was a true genius of the Kure clan. Few high schoolers could rival her. A random boy defeating her? Impossible. He refused to believe such nonsense. In his heart, his granddaughter was the best.
He refused only because he cared for her, not wanting her to do such dirty work. No matter how she pleaded, he didn't agree.
Instead, he cut the matter short: "Henzo, you handle him."
Henzo didn't refuse. He agreed imdiately. After all, this was the clan leader's order. He had no choice.
anwhile, Kael had no idea the Kure clan was preparing to act against him. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
After leaving Lady Yukinoshita, Kael returned ho. Marin and Saki were still cultivating, not yet awake. He wasn't worried—such things couldn't be rushed.
Around six in the evening, the two finally woke, their bodies stronger than before.
"Co on, let's eat a feast."
Fresh from cultivation, their bodies needed nourishnt. Kael dragged them out without hesitation.
They couldn't resist and agreed. But this ti, they refused to go to Kiri no Ya. They begged, pouted, and acted cute until Kael gave in and took them to a buffet.
Last ti at Kiri no Ya, the bill was over three million yen. Their hearts nearly stopped. One al costing a year's salary for an ordinary person—it was outrageous. Even knowing Kael was rich, they couldn't accept such extravagance. If they ate like that every ti, how could they live? So this ti, it had to be a buffet.
Kael, amused, agreed. After dinner, the three left the restaurant satisfied and smiling. But the buffet owner was dumbfounded. They had eaten far too much. Three people consuming food ant for over a hundred. He had never seen such gluttony. It was the first ti his restaurant lost money.
He called the floor manager. "Next ti they co, let know."
The manager hesitated. "Boss, isn't that wrong? We can't refuse custors."
The boss looked puzzled. "Who said anything about refusing? I want to promote the restaurant. Didn't you see how much they enjoyed the food? If I advertise that our food is delicious and highly praised, won't more custors co? This small loss is nothing. We'll earn it back."
The manager realized his mistake. After the boss left, he sighed. No wonder the boss was the boss. That was vision. Sothing worth learning.
Later, Kael escorted Marin and Saki ho. Then he took a taxi, arriving at Seika Won's Private Academy before eight.
At the gate, he was surprised to see another man—a blond-haired uncle. Though blond, he lacked the usual delinquent vibe. He looked like a weary office worker, his once-straight back bent under life's weight. He seed like an ordinary man crushed by hardship.
But Kael recognized him instantly. He was the protagonist of the adult ani set in this academy. The man hired to help stressed-out students with their desires.
Since Kael was here, he wouldn't let the uncle take the opportunity. He patted the man's shoulder. "Uncle, you're here to apply too?"
The uncle stared at Kael, shocked by his youth. "You… you're applying for this job too? You're so young. Is this really suitable for you?"
Kael said: "Age doesn't matter. Don't you think I match the students better? But you, uncle—do you really want this job? Take my advice. This isn't for you. If I were you, I'd leave now."
