To tell the truth, Seiji admired Michirou Juumonji for being willing to kneel down in order to protect his family's territory.
Of course, he was part of the mafia, and his businesses were all underground; they weren't exactly honorable, but they were also at the bottom of society. Some people were complete scumbags, while others would stick to their bottom lines.
It wasn't that the latter were noble, but it was more admirable for someone to be able to persevere in such a dark environment.
Being at the bottom of society didn't necessarily mean that everything was dirty, just like being at the top didn't mean that everything was honorable. They were all... humans.
Seiji remained silent for a long while as the mafia boss kowtowed for the second time.
'Even though you want me to tell you the answer, the problem is that I don't know either, mister …' Seiji felt helpless.
How was he supposed to fool him?
"Please get up, Juumonji-san." At any rate, he had to make Michirou raise his head first.
"I... do know some things, but I don't know how much I should tell you." Seiji rubbed his chin.
"I need to go back and think about it, and... discuss it with someone. If there's something I can tell you, I'll tell you... is that alright?"
Michirou raised his head, and something flashed in his eyes.
"Haruta -sama... even though we're outside right now, I'm sure you still need to follow certain rules."
"I know that it's a little difficult for you to tell me the truth, but it's only natural that you need to think about it."
"Even though I'm thick-skinned, I'll still... sincerely wait for news from you, please!"
After saying this, he lowered his head once more.
"I'll think about it." That was all Seiji could say.
That was the end of the formal conversation.
...
Takashi Kobayashi and Kahei Watanabe waited in silence.
Not much time had passed, but they felt that it was difficult to bear, and their minds were spinning with all sorts of thoughts.
But no matter how they thought about it, they couldn't do anything about it.
This feeling of helplessness and helplessness was really annoying!
"Eh... Kahei, just what are we?" Kobayashi crouched down and hugged his head, appearing dejected.
"Takashi..."
"I got into a fight on the street and was almost beaten to death … I was saved by my classmate, but he betrayed me … Even though I followed him here, I could only stand here like a fool … I've never felt so useless before!"
Watanabe also silently crouched down.
"There's nothing we can do. We really are trash, because we don't have any power," he said indifferently.
If he had the power, he wouldn't have dragged Harano into this in the first place.
"Power … Yes, if there's power …" Kobayashi's eyes flashed. "By the way, why is Harano so strong?"
How can I … be as powerful as Harano?
He was clearly a student of the same year and class as them, but he had such unimaginable skills.
That night, as well as just now, that calm and valiant figure had left an extremely deep impression on them.
If Harano used his full strength, then even if he was surrounded and attacked by everyone in this mansion, he would still be able to escape, right? Kobayashi suddenly thought of something.
'What? Me and Watanabe coming along is a complete burden!'
'I accidentally betrayed my classmate and willfully followed him here, but I'm just pure trash … I'm so useless, I'm basically trash!'
Takashi Kobayashi fell into deep self-criticism.
Up until now, he had never felt like there was anything wrong with his lifestyle, but this time, he reflexively began to reflect on his own life.
On the other side, Kahei Watanabe had a similar feeling.
The two delinquents squatted together, forming a gloomy shadow.
Until Harano and Seigo reappeared.
"Harano -san … are you alright!?"
"Oh … I'm fine." Seiji waved his hand at the two of them. "I just chatted with their leader."
'Chatted with their leader … for a while!?'
Although Seiji said it casually, Kobayashi and Watanabe instantly imagined all sorts of incredible scenes.
On one side was a bald man covered in tattoos, and on the other side was a calm high school boy; the two of them were fighting with real swords in the dojo … or something like that.
"Even though I told him it was fine, he insisted on treating us to dinner, so let's have dinner here." Seiji smiled at the two of them.
'Did they come to a mutual understanding after an intense battle to the death!?'
Kobayashi and Watanabe exchanged glances as they imagined even more incredible scenes.
Seiji couldn't possibly know about the little drama in their heads; if he did, he would definitely retort.
Then, the three of them were brought to a large hall. Although the decorations were extravagant, there were no chairs as usual.
Seiji was led to the main seat in the hall, while Kobayashi and Watanabe were arranged to sit on the right.
Moments later, Michirou Juumonji walked in and bowed to Seiji before walking to the main seat next to him.
'Is this … their leader?' Kobayashi and Watanabe's imagination collapsed.
Following behind Michirou was Feng Wu, as well as a slightly hunched man with messy blonde hair.
This man was wearing a shirt and cropped pants, and he seemed rather sloppy. He could be considered handsome, but his black-rimmed glasses and dark circles under his eyes ruined his natural handsomeness, and instead made him seem like a pervert.
There was an inexplicable sense of humor in seeing such a guy walking together with a beautiful girl who was shining.
The two of them walked in and sat across from Watanabe and Kobayashi.
"Feng Wu … Harano -sama already knows her, right? The other one is my second son, Tomohisa Juumonji. He's always acting so ridiculous; I apologize for my rudeness." Michirou sighed.
Actually, he should've called his eldest son, Zankita; even though he was an idiot, at least he had a decent image, but he was currently in the hospital … So, he had no choice but to bring his second son, Tomohisa Juumonji.
Speaking of his second son, Michirou felt rather helpless. Even though he was quite handsome and intelligent, he was a little weak as a man, but that didn't really matter. In this day and age, brains were more important.
But this guy just had to have some strange hobbies, which resulted in him becoming like this.
Michirou lost count of how many times he'd asked him to change, but he still continued to do whatever he wanted. If it weren't for the fact that this guy was still contributing to the team in his own way, Michirou would've kicked him out long ago!
'It's just a meal together; I don't think he'll cause any trouble in front of Haruta -sama.' That was what Michirou thought.
But when he turned around, he saw that Haruta -sama was looking at his second son with a strange expression.
"Juumonji … Tomohisa -san, right?" The more Seiji looked at him, the more he felt like he was right. "I have a question for you …"
"Eh?" Tomohisa Juumonji paused for a moment before looking at the boy at the head of the table.
When their gazes met, there was a flash of light, as if he sensed something.
A question?
Michirou paused for a moment, and so did Feng Wu.
Kobayashi and Watari were even more confused.
They'd just met, what kind of question was there to ask?
"Compared to Idelia, Leila is Sparrow's true love, right?" Seiji said slowly as he looked at Michirou.
Silence.
Just as Michirou was confused, Tomohisa's dejected eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped the floor with a loud smack!
"Wrong!!!"
He was practically shouting out loud.
"Although Leila's performance in the last few episodes has completely surpassed that of Idelia, who's just a bystander! But no matter from Peach-sensei's perspective or Sparrow's, Idelia is Sparrow's true love!
The last few episodes are nothing more than a prelude to the even more exciting later episodes! Although Leila has shown her absolute presence, she's only a stepping stone for the later episodes. Even though I think it's a little cruel, this is the truth, and the current plot proves this point as well …
"Leila is about to disappear, and Sparrow and Idelia are about to meet, and the two of them will act out the climax of the recent plot! All the fools who have been bewitched by the current Leila will discover at that time that their faith is nothing more than a temporary evil!
"Under the guidance of the Creator Goddess Peach-sensei, my Big Idelia Faction shall obtain the final victory …"
Tomohisa raised his hands high and knelt down on one knee, as if he was praising the sun as he spoke in a devout manner.
Everyone was rendered speechless.
Michirou was dumbfounded, while Feng Wu held her forehead and sighed. Kobayashi and Watari were both dumbfounded.
Seiji couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He knew that he wasn't mistaken.
