At Mirai's words, everyone was left speechless. By now, the story of Mirai killing Baki, the Minister of Internal Affairs of Sharingan, had spread throughout the Leaf! It had been an accident, but it was true that Mirai had killed Baki!
Even Uchiha Fugaku was somewhat panicked. He knew of Mirai's achievements on the front lines, and he feared Mirai as well. If it had been him, he probably would never have harmed a teacher like Baki in his entire life! He had assumed Mirai must have been badly injured before returning! But now, there seemed to be a small problem! This Mirai seemed perfectly fine—only his right hand was injured. The rest of Mirai was flushed and radiant. Did he want to argue with him? He wanted to become the Uchiha Clan Head!
With no other choice, Uchiha Fugaku said, "Uchiha Mikoto, it's time to return to the clan!" He glanced at her.
Uchiha Mikoto looked to Mirai, seeking his opinion. Seeing him nod, she said, "I won't leave Mirai! Mirai won't be going back either!"
"You! You're Mirai's fiancée! How can you say something like that here?" Uchiha Fugaku immediately became furious! If Mirai defied him, he could endure it; after all, Mirai truly possessed that kind of strength and background! But Uchiha Mikoto was doing the same thing! That was unacceptable! In his eyes, women were tools for bearing children and spreading the family line, accessories to men! Uchiha Mikoto's behavior directly clashed with his beliefs.
"Whose fiancée are you?" Mirai had never acknowledged it! What are you talking about?" Uchiha Mikoto looked at Mirai nervously. Mirai had just acknowledged her. Now Uchiha Fugaku was calling her his fiancée. She was afraid Mirai would misunderstand! This was said for Uchiha Fugaku's sake, and for Mirai's!
"Fiancée!" Mirai
