Ye Nan coldly shouted at Mirai, her face filled with mockery.
Mirai had not expected to be rejected so simply. He awkwardly rubbed his nose.
He had not wanted to before, but he did now.
Just moments ago, he had so decisively refused Chen Baojun and his disciples' request, and now the very same thing had happened to him. Karma really had come back around!

Anko Mitarashi narrowed her beautiful eyes. As she spoke to Mirai, she flung a kunai at him.

Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!!
This time, Mirai did not dodge. The sound just now had not been kunai striking the wooden door... it had been the kunai snapping apart!
