"Although it's appropriate, a name that's too simple wouldn't be recognizable," Seiji commented.
"That's right. My dear sister, apart from expressing the user's ability, the most important thing is their personality. " Tomohisa stated. "It's just like a brand's logo. A cool ability name with a personality is a man's romance!"
"… Take your time to think about it, then."
Feng Wu turned around, flapped her wings, and took flight again.
Flying felt nice, but she still wasn't proficient at it yet. She needed to practice.
She flew slowly above the dojo. It seemed like she was struggling, like a clumsy fledgling.
Seiji and Tomohisa looked at her.
Although her flying was rather awkward, this scene mysteriously moved them.
"It's amazing that she can fly."
"Yeah, it's a pity that we can't let her fly."
Seiji and Seiji silently watched the flying blonde beauty for a while.
…
In the end, they were unable to come up with an ability name that was satisfactory to them.
This topic was only half-joking to begin with, so it wasn't a big deal.
However, after considering the addition of Tomohisa and Feng Wu, more than half of the members of the knight order were Spiritual Ability users, this was no joking matter.
The Spiritual Ability user alliance … was already starting to take shape.
Although he had felt that it would be fun when he imagined it, Seiji, as the "king" of the knights, was quite worried about the actual development.
There were six Spiritual Ability users in the knight order. Apart from himself and Mika, the other four were all Awakened. And the Awakened were currently in a rather bad situation.
Seiji wanted to protect his friends, but there was a limit to what he could do. Even if he became a Yin-Yang Master, there would still be situations that were difficult to deal with.
He had to become stronger, or …
An idea popped up in his mind.
He didn't know if it was feasible … should he try?
Seiji returned home as he mulled it over.
It was already past breakfast time, and Ling Yang was about to go to school.
Mai called him and told him that she had gotten rid of the pests and that there was no need to worry about public security.
As for what kind of "pests" it was or how she "got rid of" them, "she didn't say anything … Seiji felt that it would be best not to ask.
Since the problem was solved, there was no need for an escort. Little Ling Yang happily went to school.
Seiji briefly explained to Little Shi what happened last night. He deliberately left out the fact that he was injured, lest she should worry.
After using the Healing Spell and a night's rest, he didn't feel any pain from his injuries anymore. At most, he would go to the hospital for a check-up later.
Seiji came to a decision after considering that idea. He saved a file in his system and then contacted Hana.
"Your equipment for the duel will be delivered to Wanhua Summer Night's place in two days. Try them on and she'll be responsible for adjusting them," the cat-eared hat girl said on the screen. "These equipment are for you to borrow. Although I don't think it will be damaged, I still have to say that it's best not to damage it. "
"Thank you, my dear sister." Seiji thanked her sincerely.
"Don't disgust me so early in the morning."
"Hana-sama, this humble one has something important to discuss with you."
"… What do you have to say?"
Seiji could not help but imagine the adorable sight of its cat ears pricking up when he heard its alert tone.
"You know about the Awakened, right? I'd like to know what you think about them, as well as Yui and even the Haruta Family's attitude towards them. "
"The Awakened … of course I know about them. Why are you asking about them? Could it be that someone you know has become an Awakened? "Hana inquired.
"Yes, I want to seek protection for them," Seiji told her honestly.
"Them?"
"Yes, more than one person. I feel that it'll be quite difficult for me to protect them by myself. "
The cat-eared hat girl fell silent for a moment.
"I don't have any opinions about the Awakened, but my sister has been paying attention to such people. She even recruited some of them."
"Recruited?"
"Yes, she recruited some Awakened as subordinates and had them go to the Spirit World."
Seiji's gaze sharpened upon hearing this.
He and Tomohisa were guessing that Zankita had been taken to the Spirit World by someone … could it be Yui …
No, that wasn't likely. Seiji reflexively denied this possibility.
"Why are they going to the Spirit World?" Seiji inquired.
"I don't know the specifics, but there are only two things for them to do in the Spirit World: to search for resources, and to cultivate."
"You mean that Yui is raising them?"
Hana nodded.
"My sister probably thinks highly of the Awakened's potential, which is why she recruited some to raise.
The Haruta Family doesn't have a unified attitude towards the Awakened. This is her personal behavior.
I don't know why my sister thinks so highly of the Awakened. But since she's spending so much effort to raise them, that means that those people are worth her effort. "
The cat-eared hat girl folded her arms.
"If you ask my sister to protect your friends, perhaps that's possible. However, they'll be used by my sister just like those people. Perhaps they'll become your enemies in the future.
Although that seems rather interesting, you wouldn't want that, would you? "
"Indeed, I don't want that …" Seiji imagined Tomohisa and the others becoming his enemies and didn't want to think about it anymore.
"That's why you shouldn't do that. You should copy my sister and take in the Awakened as your subordinates, raise them, and use them!" Hana told him in a serious tone.
"… I can't even protect them, let alone take them in as subordinates."
"You can do it, in the name of the Haruta Seiji Family!"
"I think I've already been removed from the Haruta Family."
"Not everyone knows about this. Even if they know, they might not dare to provoke you. That's because even if you've been removed from the Haruta Family, you still have the blood of the Haruta Family flowing within you … "Hana paused for a moment." Besides, you're now a Yin-Yang Master, which means that you're a rather powerful person. Ordinary Spiritual Ability users won't be your opponent. "
Seiji fell silent.
"Be more ambitious, hero sama. Defeating my sister is your goal, yet you don't have the confidence to protect your friends. You even want to ask my sister for help? Isn't that just too useless? " Hana continued. "You dared to go into a Spirit World with a wooden sword, and you even dared to duel other Yin-Yang Masters for the sake of a girl. Why don't you have the confidence to protect your friends?"
"These things are different. Don't generalize them." Seiji sighed.
"Protecting others is quite difficult. There's a limit to what I can do.
Although asking Yui for help is embarrassing, it's nothing compared to the safety of my friends. I don't want to regret it when something truly irresolvable really happens. "
Hana was rendered speechless.
"Of course, I won't shamelessly ask her for help. I just want to ask her. If I can really ask her to protect me, that would be for the best. If I can't, then so be it. "Seiji smiled.
'Idiot.' Hana thought to herself.
"Go ahead and ask her, then. At any rate, you're the one who's going to be embarrassed." The cat-eared hat girl harrumphed and ended the conversation.
Seiji slowly retracted his smile as something flashed in his eyes.
He then picked up his cell phone and dialed a number.
The call connected.
"Good morning, Sister Yui."
