Chapter 173

During physical education class, Nibuya Morika did leg stretches while speaking.

"This has nothing to do with you."

Sitting next to him, Natsukawa Masuzu said without even turning his head.

She was mostly indifferent when interacting with other people.

"We've known each other for so long, and your attitude is still so awful."

Nibuya Morika's eyes showed some dissatisfaction.

"I'm the 'Witch' the Club President talks about, do I really need to be so nice to you?"

The Silver-haired Beautiful Girl's lips curled into a slight mockery.

"Hmph, you really do always talk about Seeker of Truth the Dao, as expected of you..."

"I didn't! I didn't! You, you're talking nonsense!"

Faced with that amused gaze, Natsukawa Masuzu Masaki immediately lost her composure.

"Tsk tsk tsk, see? I didn't even say anything, and you already knew."

Nibuya Morika spread her hands and clicked her tongue.

"I..."

Natsukawa Masuzu opened her mouth slightly, trying hard to think of a rebuttal.

"That's just because the Club President has a lot of influence over me! It's the same for you, isn't it?"

Still being stubborn!

Nibuya Morika snorted, smiled without saying a word, and did not provoke the other party further.

Otherwise, if the other party comes to their senses and retaliates, it will be troublesome.

Far East Magic Society.

Just as everyone was in the club, using different methods, such as reading comics and novels, immersing themselves in the previous exciting battle, and recalling Hasegawa's earnest teachings to improve their own level and strength, an uninvited guest arrived.

It was Natsukawa Masuzu Little Sister had been chattering away and making the atmosphere unpleasant earlier.

"Why are you here again? Didn't I already tell you? I have nothing more to say to those people, so there's no need for you to come again."

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Natsukawa Masuzu's eyes.

Don't flatter yourself! I'm not here to see you this time!

The blonde, blue-eyed girl first put one hand on her hip and pointed at her with the other, then changed the subject.

"I came to play with the big brother!"

With a pure smile on her face, Natsukawa Mana clapped her hands and looked at him expectantly.

"It's not fun, kid."

Hasegawa Izumi merely glanced up and gave a cold response.

"Little, little kid!?"

Natsukawa Mana was deeply hurt by those words. She looked down at her chest and then pouted.

"Big brother, I'm not a little kid anymore! Look, none of them are older than me!"

Faced with the girl's criticism, Takanashi Rikka and Dekomori Sanae were taken aback at first, then realized what she was referring to.

"The Sage wasn't talking about... breasts! You're just too naive! You're acting like a child!"

"Your mind is too filthy! How could the Lord Sage joke about such a topic!"

They blushed and said angrily.

Not really.

Hasegawa Izumi thought to herself, "This is something I'm not happy about."

It seems that his image is still distorted in the eyes of different people.

As the saying goes, longing is the emotion furthest from understanding.

Even after spending so much time together, it's still the same.

"Alright, there's no point in arguing about this. In the eyes of Seeker of Truth, size doesn't matter."

As Nibuya Morika spoke, she puffed out her chest, proudly displaying her weight.

This drew disdainful glances from the three petite girls.

It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering, isn't it?

"Mana, alright, you're not exactly a popular one in our club, so you'd better go back now."

Natsukawa Masuzu maintained the same attitude.

Natsukawa Mana seemed not to hear her sister's advice. Instead, she raised her right hand and pretended to whisper, "Listen to me, big brother, I'll tell you a little secret! Actually, Xiao Liang is in dire straits right now. She probably doesn't even have 50,000 yen on her. If this continues, she might starve to death, let alone pay her tuition."

"Why is that? Isn't she the Young Lady of the Natsukawa Family?"

Hasegawa Izumi asked, slightly concerned.

"Because she's an idiot! She dared to provoke Dad, so he cut off the money, and that's why she's in such a predicament. It's ridiculous! If she had just obeyed, she wouldn't have had to worry about such a small problem at all."

Natsukawa Mana put a hand to his mouth and laughed heartily.

However, no one else found it funny.

A Greedy Witch, submitting to her family—that would be the biggest joke of all!

Natsukawa Masuzu remained silent, his back turned, and said nothing.

"Huh?"

Natsukawa Mana looked surprised, her reaction to the others was unexpected.

She originally thought that M Liang's personality meant he wouldn't get along well with others, and might even be their enemy.

The atmosphere became inexplicably awkward.

"What a pity. He's supposed to be a rich kid, yet he's in such a sorry state... It looks like Natsukawa, you'll have to work part-time from now on. You're a student at Shuchiin, yet you're doing this kind of thing. You must be one of a kind."

Instead of showing concern, Nibuya Morika made a couple of sarcastic remarks.

"It's impossible for me to work. I'll never work in my life."

Natsukawa Masuzu stirred, turned around, and said seriously.

"So what are you going to do?"

Takanashi Rikka asked with concern.

"Go steal, go rob... that's the true nature of Witch!"

Natsukawa Masuzu raised his right hand, clenched his fist, grinned, and gave a slightly arrogant look.

"Xiao Liang, when did you become like this?"

Natsukawa Mana looked incredulous and shakily raised her finger.

"It's just that you've never understood me, you idiot."

The latter merely gave her a deep, disdainful look.

"You... just keep going down this path of depravity! I don't care about you anymore!"

Natsukawa Mana gritted her teeth, flung her hand, and stormed out the door.

"Is this really okay? She cares about you a lot, doesn't she?"

Hasegawa Izumi's gaze shifted to that elfin face.

It's not hard to see that the two sisters' relationship isn't as hostile as it seems on the surface; in fact, they care about each other and both hope that the other can live a better life.

It's just that we can't understand each other because of our different perspectives.

"That's fine. She just needs to grow up innocently under the protection of the Natsukawa Family. My existence is unnecessary; I simply don't get along with those people..."

Natsukawa Masuzu smiled sincerely at first, then pouted and acted cute.

"Besides, now that things have come to this, Club President, what else can you say? Didn't you give me the courage to rebel?"

It was because the other person gave her that ray of light that she was able to be so resolute.

"Not bad, Greedy Witch, you have great courage, to be able to make the decision to give up inheriting that power."

Takanashi Rikka on with admiration.

The Natsukawa Family's influence was only second-rate in Tou-ei, but for the newly emerging superhumans of this era, they were still a behemoth.

"You can give it up, but can your Little Sister really take the burden?"

Hasegawa Izumi looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze, indicating her suspicion.

"Indeed, those people's methods were extremely ugly, but if others were to force her to do something she didn't want to do, I would be willing to expose my identity."

Natsukawa Masuzu's eyes were sharp.

Hasegawa Izumi imagined that kind of scenario.

Three years of patience followed by a stunning debut – isn't that the script for "The Return of the Dragon King"?

The thought suddenly struck him as somewhat amusing.

"If that day ever comes, I'd like to go with you on that journey."

In that instant, Natsukawa Masuzu felt a warm current surge through her heart, and her heart skipped a beat.

He was actually just watching the show, but this led the girl to a subtle misunderstanding.

"Yes, thank you, Club President."

She thanked him, then turned away, blushing with embarrassment.

"Oh."

Nibuya Morika noticed this and smiled to himself.

"Alright, Greedy Witch, if you promise not to use Dekumori terms like 'Little Dot' or 'middle school brat' from today onwards, I can lend you money for your death!"

At this moment, Dekomori Sanae's lips curled into a smile.

Although the Dekumori family could only be considered a third-rate power, as the sole designated heir, she was naturally not short of money. So she took advantage of this opportunity to seize the opportunity and establish her leading position.

Natsukawa Masuzu, of course, elegantly ignored the other person and instead turned her gaze in another direction.

"Club President, what should I do? I'm desperate! Do you need a nanny? A maid would also be acceptable, all I need to do is provide meals..."

She put on an act, clasping her hands to her chest, striking a pose that looked like she was about to cry, making people want to pity her.

This time, she was serious.

64 The Far East Magic Society Makes a Comeback

"Not lacking."

Hasegawa Izumi replied rather coldly.

He, as the older brother, could completely replace the nanny.

Even for warming the bed, there's no need for the other person.

"Oh, Club President."

Natsukawa Masuzu bit her lip, looking quite disappointed.

"Enough, Greedy Witch! You just want to use this opportunity to enter the Holy Land! You fool, stop daydreaming!"

Dekomori Sanae looked annoyed and crossed her arms.

"Let's consider other methods. A dignified Witch like you should possess wisdom far exceeding this."

Takanashi Rikka gazed intently at the other person, showing her respect.

Stealing or robbing is out of the question; that would be far too low-class, even with the title of 'Witch'.

So, after some thought, Natsukawa Masuzu offered her opinion. "Actually, I've already made up my mind. I plan to accept exorcism requests online, or rather, sell tools used for exorcisms."
