PS: Same old question, first pass, then change.
"Sir." Asakami Yasuzo respectfully called out.
His respectful demeanor was completely different from his usual dignified demeanor. But fortunately, he had already ordered the butler to send away the surrounding servants, and ordered them not to come over without being summoned, so he didn't have to worry about his image being affected.
Sei Itō slightly nodded, as a greeting, and stepped into the room.
After he sat down, Asakami Yasuzo took something like an account book from the butler's hand and respectfully handed it to Sei Itō.
Sei Itō didn't refuse, and reached out to take it, and lowered his head to look at it.
"Swish, swish …"
The pages of the paper were flipped one by one.
Until a moment later, it completely stopped.
"Tell me about your daughter." Sei Itō closed the account book, threw it aside, and said with a smile.
"It's like this …" Asakami Yasuzo slightly leaned forward and talked about his daughter's problem.
Although he said that she was his daughter, she wasn't actually his biological daughter, but a daughter brought over by his new wife. Her name was Fujino, and she was the daughter of the Asakami family head. In terms of status, she was a direct descendant, and she was much higher than the Asakami family head.
Of course, this was under the condition that the Asakami family hadn't declined yet. But now, the family was heavily in debt, and there was no other way to maintain their livelihood except to sell their ancestral property, so it wasn't the case.
Coupled with Asakami Yasuzo's recent rise, Fujino Asakami's status in the eyes of Asakami Yasuzo was no higher than an ordinary girl.
And the reason why she was able to become Asakami Yasuzo's daughter. It was because she came with her mother who remarried to pay off the debt of the main family, so they were father and daughter.
But if it was only this reason, it naturally wouldn't trouble Sei Itō. But what made Asakami Yasuzo feel troublesome was that Fujino had awakened her family's bloodline power — — superpower, a kind of eye power that could distort things. This was a taboo for Asakami Yasuzo, who had already stepped into the upper class and took over the main family's position from the Asakami family, so he really wanted to seal Fujino Asakami's power.
Just like how he treated Fujino Asakami in the original work.
But now that he knew Ito Sei, he naturally wouldn't use that kind of inhumane method, so he directly brought up the matter of Asakami Toshino in this routine letter.
"Bring your daughter, Fujino Fujino. Let me see. "Sei Itō said.
Asakami Yasuzo nodded. Slightly saluted, then got up and left the guest room.
Taking advantage of this time, Sei Itō's mind began to recall Fujino Asakami's information and her ability.
Fujino Asakami's original name was Fujino Asakami. After her mother remarried Asakami Yasuzo, she changed her surname to Asakami. She had the ability to distort things seen through her line of sight.
This ability originated from the Asakami family's bloodline. It was a kind of superpower, belonging to the suppression force of Alaya. But for the Asakami family who had this kind of power. They didn't know that their power was a benefit given by the suppression force of Alaya. They only thought that it was an abnormal awakening. Similarly, there were several other retired magician families.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap …"
At this time, a faint sound of footsteps interrupted Sei Itō's thoughts.
Sei Itō turned his head and looked at the door.
Then Asakami Yasuzo's figure appeared at the door. At the same time, a little girl wearing a pink kimono with a white pear flower pattern on the surface, looking only five or six years old, with a timid expression, also appeared in Sei Itō's line of sight.
Needless to say, this little girl was Fujino Asakami who had not been forcibly made painless.
Asakami Yasuzo expressionlessly walked into the room with Fujino Asakami.
"Fujino, go and say hello." Asakami Yasuzo said in a deep voice.
"Hi, hello, I am Fujino Asakami." Kotou timidly walked out from Asakami Yasuzo's leg, her small face was full of nervousness as she saluted and said.
"Your name is Fujino? How old are you? "Sei Itō asked softly with a gentle face.
"Six and a half years old." Feeling Sei Itō's gentle aura, Kotou slightly relaxed.
"Six and a half years old. Have you gone to school? "Sei Itō asked again.
This time, Kotou did not answer, but looked at Asakami Yasuzo on the side. The latter did not know what Sei Itō wanted to do, and his heart was full of doubts as he replied: "No."
"Come, take this and eat it." Sei Itō nodded, turned his hand and took out a piece of milk and handed it to Kotou.
Kotou still did not speak, and looked at Asakami Yasuzo.
"Take it." Asakami Yasuzo said.
"Thank you uncle." Fujino Asakami took the milk and thanked him.
"Uh … call me brother." Sei Itō's expression stiffened, and his mouth twitched as he said.
"Oh, thank you brother." Kotou blinked her eyes and changed her words.
"I heard from your father that you can twist things just by looking at them, is that true?" After a short silence, Sei Itō asked again.
As soon as he said this, the joy in Kotou's eyes from receiving snacks immediately disappeared, and her eyes were filled with fear, and she lowered her head with a gloomy face.
"Before she came to my house, she was rejected by the villagers because of that power, and they regarded her as a cursed child." Asakami Yasuzo explained.
Sei Itō nodded, reached out and gently held Fujino Asakami's arm, gently pulled her in front of him, looked at her and said softly: "Can you show that power to brother?"
Of course, this referred to the situation when the Asakami family had not yet declined. But now that the family was in debt, and there was no other way to maintain their livelihood except to sell their ancestral property, it was not the case.
Coupled with Asakami Yasuzo's recent rise, Fujino Asakami's status was not much higher than an ordinary girl in Asakami Yasuzo's eyes.
And the reason why she was able to become Asakami Yasuzo's daughter was because she came with her mother who remarried to pay off the debt of the main family, so they were father and daughter in terms of relationship.
But if it was only for this reason, it naturally would not trouble Sei Itō, who was a character in the manga. But what made Asakami Yasuzo feel troublesome was that Fujino Asakami had awakened her family's bloodline power — — a power that could twist things. This was a taboo for Asakami Yasuzo who had already stepped into the upper class and took over the main family's position from the Asakami family, so he really wanted to seal Fujino Asakami's power.
Just like how he treated Fujino Asakami in the original work.
But now that he knew Sei Itō, he naturally would not use that kind of inhumane method, so he directly brought up the matter of Fujino Asakami in this routine letter.
"Bring your daughter, Fujino Asakami, I want to see her." Sei Itō said.
Asakami Yasuzo nodded, slightly bowed, then got up and left the reception room.
Taking advantage of this time, Sei Itō began to recall the information about Fujino Asakami and her ability in his mind.
Fujino Asakami, originally named Fujino Asakami, changed her surname to Asakami after her mother remarried to Yasuzo Asakami. She has the ability to twist things through her vision.
This ability originated from the Asakami family's bloodline. It's a kind of superpower, belonging to the suppression force of Alaya. But for the Asakami family who has this power, they don't know that their power is a benefit given by the suppression force of Alaya. They only think that it's an abnormal awakening. In the same way, there are several other retired Genjutsu families.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap …"
At this time, a faint sound of footsteps interrupted Sei Itō's thoughts.
Sei Itō turned his head and looked at the door.
Then Asakami Yasuzo's figure appeared at the door. At the same time, a little girl wearing a pink kimono with a white pear flower pattern on the surface, who looked only five or six years old, with a timid expression, also appeared in Sei Itō's line of sight.
Needless to say, this little girl is Fujino Asakami who hasn't been forcibly made painless.
Asakami Yasuzo expressionlessly walked into the room with Fujino Asakami.
"Fujino, go and say hello." Asakami Yasuzo said in a deep voice.
"Hi, hello, I'm Fujino Asakami." Fujino timidly walked out from Asakami Yasuzo's leg, her small face was full of nervousness as she saluted and said.
"Your name is Fujino? How old are you? "Sei Itō asked softly with a gentle face.
"Six and a half years old." Feeling the gentle aura of Sei Itō, Fujino slightly relaxed.
"Six and a half years old. Did you go to school? "Sei Itō asked again.
This time, Fujino didn't answer, but looked at Asakami Yasuzo on the side. The latter didn't know what Sei Itō was going to do, and his heart was full of doubts as he replied. "No."
"Here, take this and eat it." Sei Itō nodded, turned his hand and took out a piece of milk and handed it to Fujino.
Fujino still didn't speak, and looked at Asakami Yasuzo.
"Take it." Asakami Yasuzo said.
"Thank you, uncle." Fujino Asakami took the milk and thanked him.
"Uh … call me brother." Sei Itō's expression stiffened, and his mouth twitched as he said.
"Oh, thank you, brother." Fujino blinked her eyes and changed her words.
"I heard from your father that you can twist things just by looking at them, is that true?" After a short silence, Sei Itō asked again.
As soon as he said this, the joy in Fujino's eyes from receiving snacks immediately disappeared, and her eyes were filled with fear, and her face was gloomy as she lowered her head.
"Before she came to my house, she was rejected by the villagers in the place where she lived because of that power. They regarded her as a cursed child." Asakami Yasuzo explained.
Sei Itō nodded, reached out and gently held Fujino Asakami's arm, gently pulled her in front of him, looked at her and said softly. "Can you show that power to brother?"
