What the Hell Do You Know About Turnips? / A Hot Lap-Pillow Service (First Bonus Chapter)

Kevin yawned, and suddenly missed Bishop Otto, wondering if he was still alive.

Compared to that one, the politician in front of me is far too low-level and offers no challenge whatsoever.

"You two beasts, look what you've done! This is the culmination of the Tendo Family's entire life's work!"

Realizing he had been reduced to Tool Person for consolidating political assets Tendo Kikumori knelt before the table, his trembling, aged hands covering the wide eyes of his four children and grandchildren one by one, his shoulders heaving, tears streaming down his face.

As the Imperial Regent, this man was second only to the Emperor. Although his four children and grandchildren were not very capable, thanks to the influence of Tendo Kikumori in politics, they were all promoted to high positions.

Even the most foolish of them Tendo Wakou, who only knew how to make money, became Vice Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. The remaining three, who were slightly more shrewd, basically all held enormous power.

With the mutual support of the Tendo Family and the wealthy Schrodinger Company, he finally made up for the Tendo Family's last financial shortcoming.

In a sense, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Tendo Family controlled half of Japan's political arena. In order-conscious Japan, they were able to maintain their prominence for at least a century, remaining influential through thick and thin.

However, the family he had devoted his entire life to did not fall victim to attacks from political enemies, but was instead disintegrated by two internal crises.

For the first time, the so-called biological son, upon learning of Tendo Wakou's corruption and the Schrodinger Company's human experiments in the Seven Star Village, actually wanted to uphold justice and expose the dark secrets of the Tendo Family to the public.

What a beast! Does he even care about his family anymore? To still talk about right and wrong, good and evil in politics is utterly foolish! Sacrificing oneself for the family is the only right thing to do!

Therefore, he sacrificed his son and tacitly allowed his children and grandchildren to send that family of four into the mouths of the Gastrea.

Unexpectedly, Tendo Wakou couldn't even handle such a small matter, leaving behind two troublemakers Tendou Kisara and Rentaro Satomi.

A moment of weakness and carelessness led him to let the two juniors go, but instead of being grateful, they insisted on revenge and destroyed his hard work with their own hands!

"I truly dare not forgive you beasts! I deeply regret it!"

Tendo Kikumori gritted his teeth, shoved aside Rentaro Satomi's support, and glared at him with such fury that he seemed ready to devour him alive.

"A beast? Good!"

Tendou Kisara eyebrows were cold and his face was ashen as still water. He drew his sword and thrust it down, impaling four heads one by one on the blade.

"You never even saw my parents before they died! There's not a single bone left in their graves! And I was actually thinking of giving these uncles and elders a proper burial."

"That's not fair, is it? Their heads are best used as sacrificial offerings."

Tendo Kikumori was trembling with rage. His aged body was no match for the Sword Demon had mastered the true teachings of the Tendo Style. After a few struggles, his katana was knocked away.

"We lost, we have to accept it..."

"I am very dissatisfied with your performance..."

Kevin grabbed the Old Man by the collar, snapped his fingers coldly, and a gap appeared in the Space Corridor behind him, visible only to him.

Inside, there were mangled pieces of flesh everywhere, and the heavy stench of blood was nauseating.

Apart from Tiantong Geng, the Tendo Family has truly ended!

With his last hope extinguished, the Old Man, who had been clinging to life, turned deathly pale and coughed up a mouthful of blood onto the table.

P. S.: I still had more fun with Otto. How about I find a way to give him another go?

Last time we just messed things up. What are your thoughts this time? Leave them in the comments section so I can take them into consideration.

Chapter 537, Section 565: What do you know about radishes?

In the far southwest suburbs of Tokyo, at a summer camp, hundreds of little girls, having finished their lessons, gathered in small groups, their eyes full of anticipation, in front of several stalls at the camp.

Because life at the camp was so dull, at Kevin's suggestion, the Toda Hirano couple organized a unique recreational activity.

That is to have the two girls' primary schools near these girls have a joint event, select a representative group, and set up a stall to sell their favorite comic books.

The final sales figures will reveal which book is the most popular, with the event expenses generously sponsored by Kevin.

"We are your divine punishment! Accept your fate!"

The Owl Girl Tina, who was lured into the scene, and the mastermind Enju Aihara, dressed in cute cosplay outfits, waved magic wands, struck cool poses, and recited domineering lines in sweet voices.

"This is the latest complete set of <Tenchu Girls>! Get in line if you want it! Please support us!"

Enju Aihara, who was doing very well in the camp, was a die-hard fan of a certain manga series and naturally went crazy recommending what she considered a masterpiece.

The little girl, who had a knack for sales, gave away various small toys along with the books to the children, which immediately drew cheers and created a lively atmosphere.

Due to a shortage of manpower, Enju Aihara also brought in her elementary school friend, Mai. The children put aside their grudges and reconciled, becoming very close again, their little faces beaming with the joy of being recognized.

"<Hut Mug Adventure> is the best! If you're brave, join HOMU and Houmei to save the world!"

Bronya, Seele, and Ann, dressed in brown and yellow mascot costumes, mustered up their courage to campaign for their beloved book.

The adorable plush toys and the three people dressed in mascot costumes performing diligently immediately attracted a large number of enthusiasts who rushed to buy them.

The other stalls each displayed their unique talents, with works such as "Puella Magi Madoka Magica," "The World's Number One Princess," "Fate/stay night," and "Junji Ito Horror Manga" joining the fray.

Of course, some are happy while others are sad. Compared to the popularity of cute and lighthearted themes, the educational animal picture books at Chizuru Kase's booth are selling poorly.

However, the most unfortunate one was the white-haired girl who drew a corner in the lottery and had not a single fly in front of her.

"Hey! Don't you guys know how to appreciate things?! <Heavy Mech Alahato> is clearly the best!"

Kiana, who hasn't sold a single copy yet, was devastated and lay on the table, weakly trying to argue.

"Mecha? So you like that?"

Just when the young lady thought she was going to end up with zero sales, she heard a question that sounded like heavenly music.

"Of course! Humans are too insignificant! Machines are the way to go! This is the aesthetics forged from steel!"

When guests arrived, Kiana immediately perked up, jumping up excitedly and revealing her admiration for mecha aesthetics with shining eyes.

However, after she saw the person's face clearly, she deflated like a punctured balloon, continuing to lie on the table, rolling her eyes in disgust.

"Hey, you rascal, you came here specifically to make a fool of me, didn't you!"

Kevin stretched his limbs and then turned the pages of "Heavy Mech Alahato" with great interest. The pages rustled as the ink on the worn pages turned.

Kiana, who was lying on the table, twitched her ears, turned her head halfway, then turned it back, responding with an annoyance.

"You're just a pretty face, you don't know anything!"

Kevin casually tapped Kiana on the head, asking with a cold smile.

"Since you're so confident, how about a duel?"

What is the protagonist's signature line in * Heavy Mech Alahato *?

"Tyrant of the Heavens, behold the sight of Star Shattering!"

Kiana, full of fighting spirit, raised the corners of her lips, a fleeting look of disdain passing through her eyes.

"You think you can pass my exam? Hmph, dream on!"

"Listen up, it's my turn!"

What is the name of the groundbreaking work in the Mecha Department anime genre, Gundam?

"Mobile Suit Gundam 0078..."

Kevin was confident and certain, and began to fight back.

Who is the famous manga artist who is Father of Gundam?

"Yoshiyuki Tomino!"

Kiana gave Kevin a serious look, not to be outdone.

How many Angels does the CCP have in EVA?

"18! My turn!"

Kevin blurted out the answer and then moved on to the next question.

What is the specific model of the latest Anti-Entropy mech, Celestial Father, in reality?

"MSR-7 Fusion Mech! Then let me ask you, of the Godfather, Hercules, Mystletainn, Baldr, Warhammer, Spider, Shaman, and other mech series, which ones are not products of the Anti-Entropy Organization?"

"Baldr, Hercules, Mystletainn!"

Kevin once again got a perfect score on this question. As the former leader of the alliance, no one was more familiar with the data and names of various classified weapons developments than him.

When faced with a worthy opponent, Kiana's interest was fully piqued, and she blurted out a series of tricky and unusual questions.

Kevin remained calm and composed; his extensive knowledge and understanding of all the secrets ensured his victory.

The two, who were originally at odds, gradually began to interact in a way that resembled an offline gathering of like-minded people, and they both started to find each other more agreeable.

"I'll tell you a secret, I personally flew the prototype of Alahato. That thing was just for show; compared to the mechs of today, it was way beneath its years."

"You're just bragging! No one would believe you!"

"The parameters don't lie, do they?"

"Classics are timeless! Alahato will always be the strongest! No explanations! No arguments accepted!"

"The Heavenly Father crushes everything! These days, strength speaks for itself, and he's the true father of the Mecha Department!"

"Alahato!"

"Heavenly Father!"

"Alahato!"

"Heavenly Father!"

Because they couldn't agree, the two cocks stood on the table, cheek to cheek, staring at each other until the stall was crowded with children watching the spectacle. Only then did the two fighting cocks give up and sullenly return to their seats.

"I now believe that you are definitely Siegfried's son, even your stubbornness is something you learned from him."

"You idiot Kevin, do you even know Old Man Stinky?"

"That's rude! By seniority, you should call me uncle!"

"Get lost! Don't think you can take advantage of me just because you're all grown up! Call me 'big sister' first, and I'll pick out a figurine from the house for you for free!"

Kiana raised her middle finger dismissively, while simultaneously casting a tempting glance with a smile.

"Tsk, another one has grown up to be ugly. Lolis are definitely cuter when they're little."

Kevin flicked his finger on Kiana's smooth forehead, causing the overbearing white-haired girl to clutch her head and cry out in pain.

After their bickering ended, Kiana watched as the handsome young man tossed down the money, picked up a set of <Heavy Mech Alahato>, waved goodbye, and left with a flourish. A slight smile crept onto her lips.

This guy isn't that bad.

But if you dare try to take Mei, I'll smash your head in!

Kiana rolled up her sleeves, brandished her fist defiantly, and threatened him viciously in her heart.

"Let's go. There's no time to cause trouble for Jenova now. Let's go check on Mount Fuji first; it's probably about to erupt..."

Kevin, after strolling around the campsite, got back into the car, leaned back lazily in his seat, and took one last look at the amusement park, which was immersed in a joyous atmosphere.

With the Japanese Government's defection, he only had two problems left to solve.

To prevent the sinking of Japan and to carry out the extermination of the Jenova remnants.

Three days is a good amount of time, not too long, not too short, he can take his time.

P. S.: I don't have enough time today, so I can only update twice. To make up for it, I'll update five times tomorrow. I'll compensate three times the amount if I don't update at all.

There are currently 12 chapters owed.

Chapter 538, Section 566: The Passionate Lap Pillow Service (First Update)

Mount Fuji, whose name comes from the Emishi language and means "immortal," is ironically an active volcano since ancient times, like Sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of the Japanese people.

The first recorded eruption was in 800 AD, while the most recent one was in 1707. The violent eruption at that time covered Edo (present-day Tokyo), which was more than 100 kilometers away, with a thick layer of volcanic ash. The vast plains surrounding Mount Fuji have also experienced intense volcanic activity.

Led by Zack, Kevin and his group walked along the northern foothills toward the ley lines of Mount Fuji's main peak, repeatedly reinforcing the hollowed-out rock caves along the way with heat-resistant materials.

The group made their way forward, and when they passed through a transparent passage suspended in mid-air, they looked down and saw that the interior of the mountain was already ablaze with red, with surging magma faintly visible trying to break through the fissures in the earth's strata.

Even with the cooling system running at full power, the scorching heat was enough to make one's hair curl and skin turn red.

Fortunately, after walking a few hundred meters, the group entered the heart of the mountain, where a large laboratory was operating at full capacity, constantly monitoring various indicators of Mount Fuji.

"How is the situation now?"
