"Make up for my lost past?"

Fang Li's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

On the contrary, Tohno Akiha looked completely at ease, as if she were talking about something perfectly normal, but her eyes were extremely serious.

Behind them, neither of the twin maids, the lively Kohaku nor the serene Hisui, dared to interrupt at such a tactless moment.

Under such circumstances, the air in the reception room seemed somewhat tense.

Fang Li, in particular, felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.

Before this, Fang Li had considered all sorts of possibilities, but he never expected that Tohno Akiha would invite the orphan of the Seven Nights Clan for this very purpose.

Therefore, Fang Li said directly, "I don't quite understand what you mean. Could you explain it more clearly?"

Upon hearing this, Tohno Akiha closed her eyes slightly and spoke softly.

"I already know to some extent about what my father did."

In other words, Tohno Akiha knew perfectly well what Tohno Shinku had done to the Seven Nights Clan.

"To be honest, I don't really agree with this approach, but my father, as the previous head of the family, had his reasons for making this decision at the time, and as the heir, I don't want to criticize it."

While saying this, Tohno Akiha actually said this.

"However, now that I am the head of the family, I have my own way of doing things."

His words powerfully demonstrated Tohno Akiha's strength and perseverance.

The meaning that Tohno Akiha wanted to express was also very clear.

Personally, Tohno Akiha does not agree with Tohno Shinku's actions of annihilating the Seven Nights Clan out of fear of their power.

It wasn't because of moral values, worldly ethics, or being soft-hearted; it was simply from Tohno Akiha's perspective that this decision didn't align with his own beliefs.

However, as the head of the clan, it is perfectly normal for Tohno Shinku to make certain decisions.

Therefore, even if Tohno Akiha does not agree with this approach, he will not say much.

However, now, Tohno Shinku is dead, and the current head of the family is himself.

Therefore, as the current head of the family, Tohno Akiha naturally has the right to express her own thoughts, and even more so, the right to implement them.

That's all there is to it.

"So, I had someone find you and sent you an invitation letter."

Tohno Akiha opened her eyes, looked at Fang Li, and spoke.

"I can't say I have the confidence to take on the responsibility my father did, but I think I can help you."

After all, the identity that the Main God Space assigned to Fang Li was that of an orphan of Assassin clan who had been hiding from Tohno Shinku's pursuit for several years, either in the deep mountains or in dark alleys, and had no life of his own, not even a social identity certificate.

In short, that means being an unregistered person.

"If you wish, I can arrange everything for you, give you a new identity, provide you with a place to live, and even take care of your daily life, so that you can have an ordinary life."

Tohno Akiha seemed to have really planned everything, explaining to Fang Li without the slightest hesitation.

"If you wish, I can also get you into school, and after you enter society, I can provide you with a good job where you won't have to worry about food and clothing. I can even arrange blind dates for you so that you can get married and have children."

"This is what I can do for you."

After saying this, Tohno Akiha finally paused for a moment before speaking.

"If you have any requests, you can make them. As long as it's within my power, I will fulfill them."

After saying that, Tohno Akiha stopped talking, as if she wanted to observe Fang Li's reaction.

Fang Li was left Fang Li, silent, inwardly grimacing.

Fang Li quite admired Tohno Akiha's thoughts and actions.

Adhering to one's own style, implementing one's own philosophy, and walking the path of life with integrity—this code of conduct must be very dazzling for someone who has always lived a life of going with the flow in this society.

Tohno Akiha's actions were entirely correct and worthy of admiration.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard Tohno Akiha thought about it, Fang Li never actually experienced the so-called dark life of being hunted down for several years.

So, regarding the compensation that Tohno Akiha mentioned...

"I'm sorry, I don't think it's necessary." Fang Li said bluntly, "You wouldn't understand even if I explained the reasons, but I must tell you frankly that I have not suffered any losses, and naturally I do not need any compensation. I can only express my gratitude for your kindness."

Yes.

Fang Li did not suffer any losses.

The fact that he was an orphan of the Seven Nights Clan was merely an arrangement made by the Main God Space.

In this way, Fang Li has no reason to readily accept the one-sided contributions of others.

In some ways, Fang Li and Tohno Akiha are quite similar; both are true to themselves and walk their own paths in life without bias.

Otherwise, if it were a shrewd and calculating Main God Envoy, he would have already started planning what benefits he could gain from the characters in the story, right?

Of course, Tohno Akiha, who was unaware of Fang Li's situation, could only frown slightly, look directly at Fang Li, and say, "So, you don't intend to get any help from me?"

"You have a reason to help me, so I also have a reason to refuse you, right?" Fang Li said with a half-smile. "Or do you have some other reason that makes you want to make amends to me?"

Tohno Akiha fell silent.

This attitude explains everything.

That's not to say that what Tohno Akiha said earlier was wrong.

However, Tohno Akiha had another reason.

Fang Li guessed that it was probably because of Tohno Shiki.

Another reason why Tohno Akiha wanted to help Fang Li was probably because Fang Li was the only surviving member of her brother's clan.

Although Tohno Shiki had long forgotten everything about Shichiya.

Thinking of this, Fang Li changed his mind and suddenly spoke up.

"It's not about making amends, but if it's just about helping, I'd like to ask you for a favor."

One sentence made Tohno Akiha pause for a moment, then straighten up.

"Go ahead and tell me," Tohno Akiha said. "I'll consider anything that's within my power to do."

"Really?" Fang Li immediately smiled.

The next moment, Fang Li raised this question.

"So, does your family need any help?"
