A Sudden Business Dinner? (5.5K)

As for Chelsea, whom he brought back, she also integrated into the group in her own unique way.

For example, when I have nothing to do, I tease Mine, just like right now--

"Oh~ a petite girl with small breasts, flat-chested~"

Mine was so angry that she pounced on Chelsea like a cat with its fur standing on end.

But Chelsea easily dodged it.

"Can't catch it, can't catch it~"

The two of them had a complete falling out.

However, some people are not interested in these trivial daily routines, such as Esdeath.

This woman first fought against Kisara Tendo. Although she was suppressed by Kisara's outrageous swordsmanship, her extremely strong ice control gave her the advantage.

In the end Kisara Tendo was defeated by her.

Moreover, this woman is not exactly a docile person.

Having just arrived in this world, before he could even get to know it, he was told he was going to conquer it.

Mahiro didn't refuse and let her go.

After all, this was agreed upon from the beginning.

Besides the Mez and the Suzuka that were forcibly brought back as her subordinates, Yotsuba Mahiro also handed over Tina's younger sisters to Esdeath and obtained several magicians from the Yotsuba Family as attendants.

Since Esdeath intends to cause chaos, how can she manage without some subordinates?

But that's all the help he can offer; Esdeath has to do everything else on her own.

After all, most of the children in Arcadia didn't want to fight, and he simply couldn't bear to.

However, when talking about Tina's younger sisters, we must mention Lina.

In the past three months, Lina has finally calmed down completely. According to Kayo, Maya seemed to have talked to Lina, but it's unclear what they discussed. Since then, Lina has become completely well-behaved.

In addition, the Stars, led by Sylvia Marjorie Fast and including several female members, was also forced to settle in Arcadia.

These people originally planned to sneak into Arcadia and rescue Lina.

Result...

Needless to say, they were captured on the spot and, like the dowry sent by USNA, were married off to Arcadia along with Lina.

This can also be considered a family reunion, something to celebrate!

After finishing all these tasks, Yotsuba Mahiro naturally returned to school life.

Incidentally, all the Imperial Arms he collected in the Akame ga Kill World, except for those that belonged to specific members, were all given to Tatsuya as souvenirs.

Anyway, they're useless to him, and Tatsuya seems quite happy to collect these otherworldly artifacts.

"Yawn~"

"Mahiro, you're not allowed to doze off! You've already missed two months of classes. If the teacher catches you sleeping in class again, you really will be expelled."

In class, Kyoko Fujibayashi was giving a tutoring lecture.

Meanwhile, Yotsuba Mahiro Honoka quietly reminded her, and even Shizuku earnestly echoed her sentiment:

"Honoka is Mahiro. Even if Mahiro doesn't want to listen, he has to pretend."

"Shizuku! You Mahiro too much!"

"I just think that with Mahiro's abilities, it's okay if he doesn't pay attention in class."

The two of them were clearly trying to teach him a lesson, but they ended up arguing with each other from a distance.

Miyuki, who was not far away, secretly glimpsed this scene and covered her mouth to chuckle.

But to be honest, Mahiro feels like she doesn't need to go to school anymore.

After all, his studies had become dispensable, or rather, merely an added bonus.

Mayumi and Watanabe- senpai have already graduated.

Although Sayaka has moved up to the third year, she is always busy with club activities.

He's sitting in the second-year classroom now, simply to keep Kitayama Shizuku, Honoka, and Miyuki, along with Erika Chiba and Mizuki Shibata.

However, when talking about the new school year, we must mention the first-year students.

This year's cohort once again boasts a number of influential figures.

For example, the sisters of the Saegusa Family, and Shippou, who is a candidate for the Eighteen Families, and Sakurai Minami, who serves as his monitor and maid, also enrolls.

But what surprised him most was that the siblings Ayako Kuroba and Kuroba Fumiya were also attending First High School!

Suddenly, things became very turbulent at First High School.

Chapter 172 An Unexpected Business Dinner? (5.5K)

"You should all give up by now, right? Brother Mahiro will absolutely not go with you!"

Wearing the school uniform of First High School, but dressed like a porcelain doll, Ayako stood with her hands on her hips, protecting Mahiro like a lioness.

Even when Fumiya tugged at her sleeve, it was to no avail.

Simply because, opposite them, two girls stood there like obstacles in their way.

Two girls, one with a shoulder-length bob and a feminine charm, and the other with short, somewhat androgynous hair.

Those two were none other than Izumi Saegusa and Kasumi Saegusa from the Saegusa Family.

"What gives you the right to say that?! Even if you are Mahiro's cousin, you have no right to decide who Mahiro walks home from school with!"

"Oh dear, how could you not be qualified? Don't you know? A cousin-cousin combination is the strongest! A biological sister can't marry her biological brother, but a cousin has no problem!"

Ayako smiled back at Kasumi Saegusa.

However, what she said seemed to be correct, because her father, Kuroba Mitsugu, was born to the Yotsuba Clan Yume and Kuroba Shigetoshi, and Yotsuba Clan Yume and the former head of the Yotsuba Family, Genzo Yotsuba, were siblings.

In the current Japan magical world, there's no problem with him marrying Ayako.

It's acceptable in every aspect.

The key question is, doesn't this scene look a little familiar?

Others might not know, but he did find the face somewhat familiar.

It seems like this happened once before, when we first entered first grade, and it was probably because of Miyuki. This time it's just that it's him.

"Oh my, I never imagined Yotsuba Clan would be so popular with girls! Even though she's been skipping classes for so long, she's already so popular with the younger girls as soon as she gets back. And I heard that they even rejected confessions from boys in the same grade just to see Yotsuba Clan!"

The one making sarcastic remarks was naturally Erika Chiba. She subtly nudged Yotsuba Mahiro with her elbow while occasionally making "Look, look" noises.

What are you watching? You're just stirring up trouble!

However, before he could even complain, Miyuki, with her hands clasped together in an elegant manner, spoke up:

"Erika, you're not right. Ayako has liked Mahiro- nii since she was little. And Saegusa -senpai's younger sister also met Mahiro- nii last year."

"Wow, really? Does that mean I've already reserved all the female students before they even enroll?!"

Erika...

They're still fanning the flames! They're still fanning the flames!

Meanwhile, Mizuki, in an innocent and calm tone, added, "If that's the case, then wouldn't Yotsuba Clan have become the public enemy of all the first-year students from the start?"

"Mizuki, as expected of you."

Erika stepped forward, patted Mizuki on the shoulder, and gave her a thumbs up.

"Mahiro, you're such a womanizer," Kitayama Shizuku retorted expressionlessly, but her micro-expressions revealed her jealousy.

Meanwhile, Honoka to the side, was so anxious she was almost in tears.

It's one thing to have Miyuki and Lina in front, but why are there junior students blocking our way from behind?!

If I don't put in the effort now, won't I have absolutely no chance?!

After being thoroughly roasted like that, Mahiro couldn't help but rub the bridge of his nose to relieve his inner fatigue.

Other worlds are one thing, but in this world, he seems to have a huge amount of emotional debt, and the worst part is that it's all piled up together...

Commonly known as "car crash".

However, Ayako's words just now also provoked the Saegusa Family sisters.

"What did you say?! Brother Mahiro belongs to us and Mayumi! You vixen... I'm going to teach you a lesson!!"

Kasumi Saegusa shouted, and then her body floated up lightly.

Her petite body accelerated through the air, not in a parabolic arc, but like a bullet, her outstretched knee aimed directly at Ayako.

It's true that the Saegusa Family excels in all types of magic, and it's also true that they are even more skilled in ranged attacks.

But what no one expected was that they even had the tactic of shooting themselves out as bullets.

"You've come at the perfect time! Let me give you a good meal!"

Unlike Kasumi Saegusa, who took direct action, Ayako's demeanor was very elegant, with a playful smile playing on her beautiful lips.

At the same time, her crimson fingertips slowly rose, pointing towards the approaching Kasumi Saegusa.

A dense wave of Psions emanated from his body.

"Sister, stop!"

Upon seeing this, Fumiya couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

It's important to understand that although Ayako doesn't usually take the lead, and even when they're on missions, it's usually Fumiya who's the main attacker, that doesn't mean Ayako is weak.

On the contrary.

Ayako is very strong; she's the kind of person who strives to be like Maya Yotsuba.

Furthermore, as a member of the Yotsuba Clan branch family, the Kuroba Family, Ayako is also skilled in mental interference magic!

The activation speed was not slow either; at least it was too late for Fumiya to stop it, because Ayako's magic had already been activated.

"Try it, this is Fumiya's magic— 'Direct Pain '~ although I'm not very skilled at using it."

Direct Pain involves directly "imprinting" the pain into the opponent's mind to control the degree of their suffering, somewhat similar to Kuroba Mitsugu's "Poison Bee" technique, but without the risk of death.

However, once injected, it can cause excruciating pain.

This has clearly gone beyond the scope of minor skirmishes!

Stop!

An indifferent voice intervened in their duel.

"Brother Mahiro?!"

"Brother Mahiro?!"

Upon seeing Yotsuba Mahiro suddenly appear between them, Kasumi Saegusa, who was sprinting through the air, and Ayako, who had already activated her magic, couldn't help but scream in surprise.

Because neither of them could stop moving.

If Yotsuba Mahiro doesn't move aside, the end result will be that their attacks will land directly on him!

Mahiro was well aware of this, but he made no attempt to avoid it, and didn't even bother to use the Cast Jamming.

First, he took Ayako's "Direct Pain" with one hand, and then immediately raised his arm to catch Kasumi Saegusa's knee with one hand.

Furthermore, by applying force from bottom to top, the direction of the impact is redirected upwards, causing the inertial direction to shift towards the ground, much like a ballet dancer changing the direction of the force and thus dissipating it.

As the combined speed and movement magic that had been applied to her failed, Kasumi was thrown away by Mahiro.

"Waaaaah!"

Kasumi let out a scream that was hardly cute, and just as she was about to land face-first, her speed suddenly slowed down as if she had been given a slowing spell, allowing her to land smoothly.

This was naturally done by Mahiro. After finishing, he turned around and delivered a chop to Ayako.

"Ouch... It hurts so much Mahiro, Mahiro-nii-san!"

Ayako used a crouching defensive stance with her head covered, letting out a cute, pitiful cry.

"It hurts? That's right! Is that kind of magic that you can use on classmates?" Mahiro scolded sternly.
