PS: Thanks to "Boring Saint" and "Instant Potato" for their tips.
Two days later, in the Enosaka family's mansion.
Sei Itō and Enosaka Toshiomi stood facing each other.
"Can you promise to pass on all your magic knowledge to my child?" Enosaka Toshiomi asked in a low voice.
"I can't. But I can promise that as long as it's suitable for her and she wants to learn it, I'll teach it to her. As for whether or not she can learn and master it, that's not something I can interfere with. "Sei Itō shrugged.
Then, there was another period of silence between the two.
"I hope you can keep your word." Enosaka Toshiomi spoke again.
"Only at times like this can I see you as a 'father.' How rare." Sei Itō chuckled.
Enosaka Toshiomi ignored him.
"Then, who is my disciple?" Sei Itō didn't continue to tease and asked.
"It's my youngest daughter, Sakura." Enosaka Toshiomi answered.
"The eldest daughter inherits …" Sei Itō said softly.
Enosaka Toshiomi remained silent.
"Okay, please let my disciple come out and meet me." Sei Itō raised his spirits and said seriously.
"Wait a moment."
Enosaka Toshiomi turned around and left the room. A few minutes later, he brought Sakura, who was wearing a dark blue girl's dress, back into the room.
"Sakura, from now on, Ito-san is your magic teacher." Enosaka Toshiomi announced.
"Please take care of me in the future, Sakura." Sei Itō bowed. He looked at Sakura, who was standing timidly beside Enosaka Toshiomi, and reached out his hand with a gentle smile.
"H-hello, Ito-san." Looking at the outstretched hand in front of her, Sakura hesitantly reached out her small hand and held Ito Sei's hand, then said softly.
"Sakura, call Ito-san master." Enosaka Toshiomi reminded.
Sakura raised her head and looked at her father, then looked at Sei Itō and said, "M-master."
"Hehe, there's no need to go through so much trouble. Just call me Brother Cheng. "Sei Itō shook Sakura's hand. He smiled.
Sakura raised her head and looked at her father again. Seeing that he did not object, she called out softly, "Brother Cheng."
Sei Itō smiled and let go of Ying's hand. He straightened his body.
"When do you plan on taking Sakura away?" Toshiomi Enaka asked.
"The day after tomorrow. At least give Sakura two days to say goodbye to her family. "Sei Itō lowered his head and looked at Sakura, who was beside Toshiomi Toshiomi's leg.
"Many thanks." Toshiomi Enosaka expressed his gratitude.
"Also. I don't have that many rules. So, if you want to see Sakura in the future, you can visit me at my place, or let Sakura stay here, "Sei Itō smiled. He continued.
"… Thank you very much." Toshimi Enosaka was silent for a moment before expressing his gratitude again.
"It's nothing. This is for Ying's own good. After all, she's still young. "Sei Itō smiled.
Then, the two of them talked about Sakura's problem and the rules of living in Fuyuki City. Sei Itō, Toshiomi Enosaka, and Sakura Enosaka left the Enosaka family's mansion.
Not long after he left, a series of hurried footsteps sounded. Rin Far Asaka, dressed in a black short skirt and a red top, pushed open the door and rushed into Toshiomi's room, panting as he called out.
"Father."
"Rin, what's the matter?" Toshiomi Enosaka frowned and said in a low voice.
For someone who paid attention to etiquette and rules, Rin Enosaka's behavior at this time was not good, and it made him feel a little angry.
"Sakura, Sakura, is she really going to be sent away?" Rin Enosaka, who did not notice the change in his father's expression, asked anxiously.
"She's not being sent away. She's just going to her master to practice magic." Toshiomi Enosaka frowned and said in a low voice.
"Magic practice? Doesn't she have a father? "Rin Enosaka asked strangely.
"Sakura's attribute is not suitable for the family's gem magic." Toshiomi Enosaka said.
Sakura's attribute was the special type [Shadow]. Although it had no effect on the gem magic released by the special gem, it was still lacking compared to Rin's [Five Elements] attribute, so she could only be excluded as the heir of the family's magic engraving.
"… Will Sakura come back in the future?" Rin Enosaka, who had already begun to practice magic under Toshiomi Enosaka's guidance and already knew the relationship between attributes and magic, said in a low voice.
"Ito-san has already promised me that Sakura can come back to the family at any time." Toshiomi Enosaka said.
"Really?" Rin Enosaka looked up at his father and asked anxiously.
"Yes." Toshiomi Enosaka nodded.
"That guy knows what's good for him." Rin Enosaka muttered after getting the answer.
"What are you muttering about? Rin? "Toshiomi Enosaka asked.
"It's nothing, Father. Sorry to disturb you. I'm going back to practice magic." Hearing his father's question, Rin Enban quickly stopped talking and bowed politely.
"Go." Toshiomi Enosaka's lips curled up slightly as he said softly.
He was willing to see his daughter's hard work.
Rin Enosaka slightly bowed to Toshiomi Enosaka and lightly stepped out of the room, closing the door behind him.
"Ok."
…
Two days later, in the Enosaka family's mansion.
"I'll leave Sakura in your care." Toshiomi Enosaka said seriously.
"No problem. After all, she's the person I chose. I won't let her go to waste." Sei Itō looked at Sakura Enosaka and said.
"Sakura, we should go." Then he nodded to Toshiomi Enosaka and turned to look at Sakura Enosaka who was holding his hand.
Sakura Enosaka nervously looked back at Sei Itō. Obviously, for Sakura at this age, leaving her parents and home, and following a strange man who she had only met twice or three times was beyond her imagination. She couldn't help but be nervous and afraid.
"Don't worry. We live in the city. If you miss home, Sakura, you can come back anytime. "Sei Itō said gently.
Sakura Enosaka withdrew her gaze and turned to look at her father. Her father looked at her without any emotion in his eyes. He didn't say anything to comfort her, nor did he ask her to stay. This made Sakura lower her head in disappointment.
Seeing this, Sei Itō didn't say anything. He gently pulled Sakura Enosaka out of the mansion.
"Tap, tap, tap, tap …"
However, at this moment, a series of hurried footsteps echoed in the quiet mansion. Then immediately after. Rin Enosaka appeared on the second floor of the mansion. She stretched half of her body out of the armrest and shouted, "Sakura."
Sakura heard the call and turned her head. Her face was full of joy as she looked at Rin Enosaka on the second floor.
Seeing that Ito Sei and Enaka Sakura had stopped, Rein Enaka retracted his body and quickly ran downstairs. She rushed in front of Sakura.
"Sister." Sakura whispered.
"Sakura. This is for you. "Rin grabbed Sakura's small hand. She put a white belt in Sakura's hand.
"Sakura, if this guy bullies you, tell me. I'll find a way to avenge you. "Rin looked at Sakura with a serious face and promised.
"Sister." Sakura was moved by Rin's words. Her eyes were filled with tears.
"Remember, don't bully Sakura. Otherwise, I won't let you go. I promise." Rin turned her head and glared at Sei Itō fiercely.
"Rin." Seeing that his daughter was becoming more and more unruly, Toshimi Enosaka couldn't help but frown.
"I'm so scared." Sei Itō pretended to be scared. Then his expression changed and he laughed. "Don't worry, Sakura won't be bullied at my place. If you're worried, you can go to my house and supervise me. "
"Hmph." Rin Enosaka snorted in response.
"Sakura." Rin Enosaka looked at his sister and called softly.
"Rin, come back." Toshimi Enosaka frowned.
"Yes, father." Rin Enosaka looked deeply at the teary-eyed Sakura in front of him, then turned around and returned to Toshimi Enosaka's side.
Sei Itō nodded at Toshimi Enosaka again, then left the Enosaka family mansion with Sakura, who kept looking back with a crying face. They gradually disappeared into the distance.
It was also at this time that Rin Enosaka couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes and cried.
Parting was indeed a sorrowful thing.
Ten minutes later, the two returned to the apartment Sei Itō bought in Fuyuki City.
"From today onwards, this room is yours." Sei Itō opened the door and pointed to a room that was about 30 square meters in size. The decoration was relatively simple. There was only a bed, a simple cabinet, a square desk, and a chair in the room.
"See if there's anything missing. Let me know later so we can buy more." Sei Itō walked into the room and put Sakura Enosaka's luggage on the bed.
Sakura Enosaka silently looked at everything in front of her. It was like when she was played by Uncle Bug. However, Sei Itō knew that this was because they weren't familiar with each other yet. He believed that after some time, Sakura would be able to return to her usual lively self.
Sei Itō didn't say anything. He opened Sakura's luggage and took out her clothes one by one, then hung them in the simple cabinet. He said softly, "We don't have much to do today. Let's go out for a walk and familiarize ourselves with the surroundings. We'll also buy some daily necessities for you. Then, I'll take you to eat something good. Tomorrow, we'll start practicing the basics of magic. "
Sakura remained silent throughout the whole process. She silently watched Sei Itō busy himself.
"Speaking of magic, Sakura, did your father teach you the basics of magic?" Sei Itō turned to Sakura who was standing by the door and asked.
Sakura shook her head, indicating that he didn't.
"Tsk, this guy." Sei Itō pursed his lips.
"Then, I'll explain it to you briefly." Sei Itō continued.
"Magic — from sukipedia. It's a phenomenon that surpasses common sense. However, it's not that it can't be explained with common sense. Instead, it's something that can be done with common sense, but it's something that can be done with common sense. Like this … "
At this point, Ito Sei stopped tidying up, turned around, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.
In the next second, a faint flame appeared at the tip of Sei Itō's finger. It was still burning.
Sakura Enosaka's eyes lit up slightly when she saw the flame.
"What do you think my actions look like?" Sei Itō asked with a smile.
"A lighter." Sakura Enosaka tilted her head and said.
"That's right, it's a lighter." Sei Itō extinguished the flame with his hand and said, "The effect that can be achieved with only flint and natural gas, after some special transformation, can be miraculously achieved with human power. This is magic."
"For those who don't understand, it's a miracle. So, Sakura, you're now cultivating to create miracles. "Sei Itō turned to look at Sakura Enosaka with a mischievous smile.
Sakura Enosaka showed an interested expression.
"Okay, let's go out for a walk." Sei Itō said after he finished organizing Sakura's things. The other things that he didn't need were still in the luggage. He closed the lid and put it at the bottom of the simple closet.
"Come, hold hands." Sei Itō walked in front of Sakura and extended his hand.
This time, Sakura didn't object. She reached out and held Sei Itō's hand. Then, the two left the apartment hand in hand. They walked around the surrounding streets to help the newcomer Sakura familiarize herself with the surroundings. Along the way, he brought Cherry to a convenience store where he bought some daily necessities that Cherry needed.
For example, toilet paper.
For example, toothbrushes, toothpaste, new towels.
For example, sheets, blankets, pillowcases, pillowcases, etc.
Then, the two carried their things to a nearby Chinese restaurant and enjoyed dinner there.
"Hmm? Is this Chinese restaurant the same Chinese restaurant? " Just as Sei Itō and Sakura Enosaka were eating happily, a dark figure suddenly walked past them and attracted Sei Itō's attention.
The figure was about 1.8 meters tall and thin. He was wearing a black clergy robe with an iron cross hanging in front of his chest. His face was expressionless and his eyes were empty. He walked to an empty table and sat down like a zombie.
Perhaps he sensed Sei Itō's gaze, the man turned his head and looked at Sei Itō.
"It's really him, Father Mapo – Yan Fengqi Li." After seeing the man's face clearly, Ito Sei thought in his heart, and then nodded politely to Fengqi Li with a calm face.
The latter didn't pay too much attention to it. He nodded politely and withdrew his gaze. The waiter came over to serve him and ordered the dishes.
"I didn't expect to meet him here." Sei Itō, who also looked away, thought to himself. Then, he ignored him and continued to take care of Sakura Enosaka while enjoying the food in front of him.
After all, for Ito Sei, Yan Fengqi Riki was just a minor character. Although he was important, he had nothing to do with his purpose, so he didn't need to pay attention to him.
