She Shinra Building's opulent interior, then turned to Lufus, who was sipping wine by the floor-to-ceiling window, and asked with a smile.

"By the way, what's for lunch today?"

The Shinra President slightly raised his eyes, smiled elegantly, and answered politely.

"I can make Japanese, French, or Chinese food; I have a whole team of chefs."

Tendou Kisara, immediately took his hand off the microphone, and began to shout in a rough and arrogant voice.

"Don't worry about saving money for the meal. Invite Xiao Cui and the Nightingale sisters over! Someone's treating!"

"Huh? What do you think we should do about Rentaro and the others?"

"Three grown men, Akimaro-bro, Rentaro, and his classmate, could they starve to death?"

Upon hearing this, Lufus's face stiffened, and he almost lost his composure and elegance.

This was the first time he had ever seen such a group meal ticket scheme. It seemed that in the eyes of this socialite from a political family, the top floor of the Shinra Building was a cafeteria where one could freeload meals.

This woman Tendou Kisara, is not only desperate for money, but she has also almost completely lost her moral compass.

Kevin was both amused and exasperated by the sight.

It seems that his and Jill Hera's previous investment in the Tendou Civil Security Company has clearly gone down the drain.

"By the way, can I pack some to go? I'd like to take some back for my grandfather to try. Lately, he's been eating pickled vegetables, radishes, and white rice for every meal. I'd like to give the old man a little something different."

"After all, I would be very sad if he died from malnutrition."

Tendou Kisara rested her chin on her hand and asked, revealing a beautiful smile.

"Nengneng, you can eat whenever and however much you want. The doors here will always be open to you all; after all, we've all been through thick and thin together."

The meal ticket itself tried its best to maintain its image, nodding earnestly.

Perhaps their relationship wasn't that deep before, but in terms of things like betraying one's father and grandfather, Lufus seems to have found a rare kindred spirit.

However, after such a long period of imprisonment, it's unclear whether Tendou Kisara of mockery or resentment.

"Okay! I want Chinese food! Big portions and flavorful!"

"It has to be pizza! Not made to order, just order it for me. If the restaurant remembers to include a points coupon, I'll give it a five-star review!"

"We want Japanese food, and we want it to be Masamune..."

At this moment, led by Tendou Kisara, this group of "bandits" who had usurped the place made one after another request for lunch from Lufus, treating him exactly like a waiter.

Looking back down at the street below the building, Kevin and Tifa were already walking further and further away.

Walking side by side down the Midgar Street, Tifa's eyes occasionally glanced at Kevin's soft profile.

After staring at it for a while, the fighter became momentarily distracted and nearly crashed into the patrol team and vehicles in front of him.

This is really... so embarrassing!

Tifa, regaining her senses, looked embarrassed, a slight blush rising to her cheeks. She realized she might have a bit of a brother complex.

When the guy who entered her life as her younger brother suddenly grew into an adult, and the two grew closer, she felt somewhat lost about their relationship.

She wanted to calm down and re-examine their relationship, but in the critical moment, under Sumire Muroto's guidance, the siblings broke through that taboo.

It has to be said that this entanglement will probably last a lifetime.

But for Tifa, she still needs more time to process and face it.

Just as the older sister next door was about to distance herself and calm down for a few minutes, her right hand was suddenly pulled over and held tightly in her palm.

The thick leather texture between his fingers made Tifa instantly realize that he was now wearing the boxing gloves she had given him.

"Sister Tifa, that's not fair! You've finished watching, but I'm still not satisfied!"

Kevin raised the corners of his lips and smiled gently, his carefree banter easing Tifa's embarrassment.

Then, after the neighbor girl half-heartedly gave in, the man pulled Tifa along for a quick tour.

On the way, Tifa gradually relaxed, and Kevin intentionally brought up the topic.

This friendly older sister shared updates about her old friend from Avalanche, as well as her experiences living with the Cursed Children.

As the pleasant conversation unfolded, the atmosphere between the two became increasingly harmonious.

As the two passed the Seventh Heaven Bar, a familiar yet slightly teasing call stopped Kevin and Tifa.

"Sir, how about buying your girlfriend a bouquet of flowers?"

Looking towards the source of the sound, they saw a newly built flower shop waving a delicate fragrance. Alice, holding a watering can and spraying the flowers, was smiling and waving at the two of them.

Cissnei nearby, was in charge of counting the quantities and monitoring the sales of the various flowers.

Meanwhile, Zack and Cloud, those two good-for-nothings, were naturally assigned the physical labor of loosening the soil, carrying things, and pruning branches, all to please their respective girlfriends.

Kevin and Tifa exchanged a glance, smiled, and went into the store.

"Ghidorah came twice, but both times the customers left. Business is bad. How about you lend us some money as a favor?"

Alice looked at the deserted shop with a sense of helplessness.

Kevin smiled and bent down to examine the variety of bouquets in the shop. From simple details such as the soil and branches, it was clear that these natural sprites were well cared for.

"This will do, please wrap it up as a bouquet..."

Seeing this, Alice turned around and looked at Kevin and Tifa with a hint of mockery in her eyes.

After cutting and wrapping the flowers, this flower lover, with a touch of tenderness, repeatedly instructed Kevin on how to care for them and prolong the life of the bouquet as much as possible.

Under the watchful eyes of his old friends, Kevin presented the bouquet to Tifa. After exchanging a few words, the man sensed the runes lighting up once more and hurriedly bid farewell to Le Alice and the others.

Suddenly, Alice, who had just waved goodbye, seemed to remember something, and her face stiffened.

"Wait, it seems they forgot to pay..."

"Well..."

Zack and Cloud exchanged glances, wanting to offer words of comfort, but then they saw Alice gazing at the empty flower branches, murmuring softly with heartache.

"Blue Enchantress, oh, these are Blue Enchantress I painstakingly cultivated; they're rarely seen on the market..."

After muttering to herself for a while, Alice looked in the direction the two had gone, shook her head slightly with a wry smile.

Well, it's not bad to give it to someone who knows flowers.

The Blue Enchantress symbolizes a lifetime of companionship. Giving it to Tifa might be proof that it represents that person's unspoken promise.

P. S.: By the way, Tifa and Alice's dresses in Final Fantasy VII Remake are absolutely stunning! Unfortunately, the pictures are too big to upload, so I'll just share them in the group chat.

Chapter 907: A Righteous Onslaught! (Section 947)

In Tokyo Bay, behind the dismantled Osmium metal walls, Kevin strolled along the beach, looking back at the somewhat dilapidated scene before him, feeling as if he had stepped into another world.

As for Tifa, who was accompanying Kevin, after giving him directions, she left before he could speak, using the excuse of finding a vase to cultivate the bouquet of Blue Enchantress.

A woman's keen insight can be terrifying, and the unspoken understanding between them goes without saying.

After a short wait, as the seawater surged ahead, two whale-shaped submarines surfaced and slowly approached the shore.

At this moment, the hatch opened, and Jill Hera and his group walked towards the beach.

"Those kids had a meal together on the top floor of the Shinra Building, and they kept saying how much they missed you..."

Seeing that Judicator Mina's gaze was nostalgic and her eyes held a hint of longing, Kevin tactfully gave her the address.

In a sense, these Cursed Children who escaped from Seven Star Village were, to some extent, half-children of Mina. What reason did he have to prevent the mother and daughter from reuniting?

Of course, one of his purposes was also to take the opportunity to send his mother-in-law away.

"I heard about the Monarch Organization outpost 33 in Antarctica. I'm glad you're all alright..."

The man smiled and stepped forward, giving Jill Hera a friendly hug. He inquired earnestly about the details of the encounter and praised the impressive achievements of the Deep Sea Academy members.

Although, according to the divination of the Queen Frigga, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube should undoubtedly fall into the hands of the Deep Sea Academy.

But after going through so much, Kevin's emotional intelligence has improved considerably. If he were to be frank about his purpose in specifically asking for the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, it would be somewhat hurtful.

Therefore, just like a certain sport, if you want everyone to enjoy it, **is indispensable.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with everyone present and warming up the atmosphere, Kevin led Jill Hera to the reef before asking about the whereabouts of the Rubik's Cube.

"That little blue cube? You mean that thing? It seemed to disappear in the blink of an eye when we were surfacing to fight Ghidorah..."

Jill Hera frowned slightly upon hearing this, her tone somewhat awkward, and her eyes filled with suspicion.

"It's strange, things have been going missing from the submarine lately. Could there be a mole, or has it really been robbed?"

Upon hearing this, Kevin felt a headache coming on; getting involved in the internal affairs of the Deep Sea Academy was no easy task.

No matter who you question, the seeds of doubt will eventually destroy mutual trust.

Just then, as Kevin was pondering his decision, a strange noise came from behind some rocks.

A figure with golden hair, strangely tucked its right arm between its legs, stealthily retreated from beside the reef.

"King Kong? Wait, what's hidden down there? Take it out and let us see..."

However, before the gorilla could run more than a few steps, Kevin, with Jill Hera by his side, blocked it in the middle, giving it a slight, cold smile.

King Kong clenched his arms and spread his hands innocently, trying to prove his innocence.

But when it comes to cunning, this somewhat shrewd gorilla is no match for Kevin and Jill Hera.

Moreover, running away after hearing a single sentence in conversation is basically a classic case of protesting too much.

"Roar!"

Knowing he was being suspected, King Kong forced a human-like expression of anger onto his furry face, shaking his head and pounding his chest in frustration, using body language to defend himself to Kevin and Jill Hera.

Kevin's doubts gradually faded, and he looked ashamed. He stepped forward and patted King Kong on the shoulder to comfort him.

"Friend, it was my fault. I believe you are innocent..."

"Long time no see, good day..."

"Roar!"

As the man gave him a friendly middle finger, King Kong, whose anger turned to joy, instinctively placed his left hand on his right arm, raised his right middle finger high, and couldn't help but let out an excited growl.

"Smack..."

However, a few crisp sounds from the rocks at his feet made King Kong instinctively lower his head.

When it saw the blue cube, which it had been carrying under its arm, bounce onto the beach, its excited and smug expression froze instantly.

Caught red-handed, Kevin smiled and picked up the Rubik's Cube from the ground, then patted King Kong on the shoulder, his tone mocking.

"Bro, when it comes to tricks, I'm a pro..."

"That's too much! Is this how you trick gorillas?" King Kong looked annoyed. The euphoria he had just felt from consolidating his intellectual superiority was instantly shattered by the two-legged creature in front of him.

However, its grief and indignation did not last long before a cold gaze pierced through it, the murderous intent in that gaze making King Kong feel a little uneasy.

"I'm telling you, you were the one who stole the things from the base recently, weren't you?"

"Come back with me and cooperate with the investigation!"

Jill Hera spoke in a sinister tone, plucking her beloved Rose of Fate, her eyes sharp.

Damn it! What I did has been discovered! King Kong's face changed instantly. He didn't have time to argue with Kevin anymore. He turned around and ran away.

"You damn gorilla, where do you think you're going! If you don't explain yourself clearly, not only will you lose your food allowance this month, but you'll also have to clean toilets for a month!"

Jill Hera, in pursuit, saw that even with all its Gene Lock activated, it couldn't keep up with the limb-wielding gorilla opposite it, and angrily threatened it.

After the little incident, King Kong, who was surrounded by the crowd, listlessly showed off the various spoils he had stolen.

Meanwhile, the fat lizard that had also been shrunk down by Pym Particles and uploaded to the scene looked at King Kong's actions with disdain.

A moment later, Kevin sat in the chairman's seat in the submarine's conference room, transmitted the relevant data to everyone, and began to ponder.

"You should be aware of the current situation. Titan Star is attacking. Earth is short-handed, and we have a mission to entrust to the Deep Sea Academy..."

"Unify the Titan Beast under the command of the various outposts of the Monarch Organization, and make them obediently follow orders."

Jill Hera glanced at Godzilla and King Kong beside him and nodded slightly.

"You two must gain the authority to command the Titan Beast and become the King of the Monsters!"
