The Secret of Itogami Island

"You bastard..."

Upon hearing this Natsuki -chan gripped her folding fan even tighter.

She considered herself a person of few desires, someone who didn't care about many things, yet for some reason, she was always inexplicably swayed by this bastard's emotions.

Seeing her embarrassed and annoyed expression, Mahiro laughed triumphantly.

The task was exceeded.

Feels good.

However, what he didn't know was that his small act that day would create a legend at the Saikai Academy High School that no one could surpass.

"By the way, Yuuma Sengakuji, there's something I wanted to ask you. Do you know a girl named Asagi Aiba?"

"Father, are you talking about Lan Yu? I know her. She's in the same class as me, and she's a very good student. But why are you suddenly asking about Lan Yu?"

Yuuma Sengakuji tilted her head, her face full of confusion.

At this moment, Natsuki Minamiya interjected:

"Hmph, needless to say, he's definitely trying to seduce another young girl."

"Eh? Father's going to make a move against Lan Yu? Although... although she is indeed very beautiful, but... but..."

Yuuma Sengakuji's face flushed red instantly, and she became flustered until Mahiro's large hand landed on her head again, calming her down.

"Don't Natsuki Nagatsuki-chan's nonsense. Do you really think your father is the kind of scum who would lay a hand on a middle school student?"

Upon hearing this, Yuuma Sengakuji hesitated for a moment before shaking her head slightly.

Why am I feeling inexplicably sad?

He raised his head and glared fiercely at Natsuki Minamiya, saying, "I asked about Asagi Aiba because I happened to run into her in the hospital corridor today. Her mother passed away this evening, and I was just there to offer my condolences!"

I don't believe it.

"If you don't believe me, go ask Aye. She stayed by my side the whole day! She can prove it to me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Aye silently got up from the sofa and went back to his room.

He didn't even glance at me the entire time.

"Hehe, what do you say now?"

Seeing the door close, Natsuki Minamiya smiled, a smug smile that conveyed a sense of satisfaction, as if she had finally gotten her revenge.

As for what he said?

What else can I say?!

We have no choice but to accept our fate!

That Natsuki Minamiya!

That wicked Aya Sengakuji!

Sooner or later, he would pin Natsuki Minamiya's true form and Aya Sengakuji, those two witches, to the bed and give them a good spanking to vent his hatred!

Chapter 348 The Secret of Itogami Island

Slurp--

Slurp--

"Ha~~~"

Yotsuba Mahiro, along with the two little girls, Est and Avrora Florestina, curled up on the sofa, savoring the black tea treasured by Natsuki Minamiya. This made Natsuki Minamiya, who was dealing with official business, feel a sense of irritability and powerlessness.

"... Yotsuba Mahiro, are you bored?!"

"Yeah, I do have a lot of free time."

"If you're free, you can go visit that little girl, Kanase Kanon, at the orphanage, instead of bothering me at work here!"

"I already went this morning, and even had a breakfast that Kanon Kanase had carefully prepared."

Mahiro said it as if it were the most obvious thing in the world, and Est and Avrora Florestina nodded in agreement.

The food prepared by Kanase Kanon was indeed delicious.

"Don't you have anywhere else you want to go?!"

"No, it's too hot outside. It's not as comfortable as here."

His tone was very righteous and indignant.

While there was an element of revenge against Natsuki Minamiya for making her a student, it must be said that Natsuki's office was indeed very comfortable.

It's even more comfortable than an apartment, especially with its spacious layout and understated yet luxurious decor—it's even more opulent than the principal's office.

So he stayed here for almost an entire vacation.

At first, he brought the three little girls with him, but later, for some reason, perhaps feeling that he would cause trouble for Natsuki- chan, Yuuma Sengakuji stopped coming and stayed home to study obediently.

Over time, they became three parasites—one big and two small.

Whenever Natsuki Minamiya saw them, she felt a terrible headache. She wanted to arrange work, but nothing urgent ever happened.

She wanted to get rid of him, but Yotsuba Mahiro's shamelessness left her helpless.

Even if they are forcibly sent away, they will still use spatial teleportation to return here in the next second.

In Yotsuba Mahiro's words, "You're the one who insisted on keeping me by your side to supervise me, so please take full responsibility for it."

Yes, that's reasonable and well-founded; Natsuki Minamiya has no way to refute it.

"Do as you please, but if you're going to drink tea, then drink tea and don't make any noise!"

The three nodded and simultaneously made a zipping motion with their mouths to indicate that they would no longer make any noise.

After finishing her tea, Mahiro felt a bit bored, so she wandered around the office, making silent steps, looking left and right, and finally circled around to Natsuki Minamiya's desk.

A dark line immediately appeared on Natsuki -chan's forehead, her face darkened, and she whispered a reprimand:

"Have you forgotten everything I just said?!"

Mahiro didn't say anything, but picked up the organized files on the table and started flipping through them.

Those are the new students' enrollment documents.

He hadn't flipped through more than a few pages when he spotted a familiar face—

Motoki Yaze.

She is a transfer student in the second year of junior high school at the Saikai Academy.

If I remember correctly, this guy seems to be an over-adaptor, similar to a superhuman, and the eldest son of the Yase family, a prominent family on Itogami Island.

However, besides this, he also has a special identity: he is the secret monitor of the Fourth Progenitor, Kojou Akatsuki, in the original work.

However, it has now appeared on the enrollment list...

Something's not right.

Something's nine out of ten wrong.

Mahiro felt like his head was a bit of a mess.

Putting aside the question of whether this guy was actually a transfer student in the original storyline, the matter of the Fourth Progenitor hasn't even been settled yet, and this guy has suddenly appeared.

Who are they here to spy on?

Are they spying on themselves?

Thinking of this, his gaze involuntarily fell on the black-clad Gothic Lolita working diligently beside him. From his position, he could just see Natsuki -chan's delicate, snow-white collarbone.

Because she was wearing a black dress with crisscross ties, the lace ruffles at the neckline and the softness of the slightly sheen black fabric were clearly visible.

However, he looked away after a few seconds.

Hmm, they're definitely not here to spy on me, after all, he's a five-star good citizen of Itogami Island who poses no danger whatsoever.

Not to mention the legitimate official status of a Demon Slayer.

So he flipped down again, and after a few more pages, he saw another familiar name—

Kojou Akatsuki, a second-year junior Motoki Yaze.

Upon seeing his information, Mahiro was slightly surprised.

Did this guy really come to Itogami Island just like in the original story?

However, he has lost contact with Avrora Florestina and has not become Avrora Florestina's Blood Servant, nor has he registered as a human.

So, what's this guy here for?

Forced to participate in the Feast of the Flame, and then, in human form, forcibly devouring twelve familiars to become the Fourth Progenitor?

If that's the case, it's pure wishful thinking.

Although we haven't seen the true Fourth Progenitor yet, the Blue Ice of the Enchantress residing in Avrora Florestina alone is enough to burst or drain a human.

However, it wasn't just Kojou Akatsuki; even his younger sister, Nagisa Akatsuki, came to Itogami Island and enrolled in the junior high school at the Saikai Academy. She was a year younger than Kojou Akatsuki and also a grade below him.

Like Kanase Kanon, she is a first-year student in junior high school.

It's fair to say that all that's missing now is Yukina Himeragi to complete the cast for the stage play.

Mahiro felt his head was in a mess, his thoughts were a bit jumbled up, and the plot seemed to be getting out of control, as if he was being forcibly pulled back to the original route.

"Are you interested in the new student information?"

Natsuki -chan's sudden voice brought him back to his senses.

Seeing that he had been looking at the new student enrollment materials for a long time, Natsuki Minamiya couldn't help but ask him a question.

But Mahiro simply shook his head and said:

"No, I just saw two familiar little guys."

He specifically pulled out the information on Kojou Akatsuki and Nagisa Akatsuki and placed it in front of Natsuki Minamiya. Natsuki Minamiya glanced at it and then said:

"Oh, those brother and sister, I know them."

It was quite memorable.

Because when she was secretly observing, she witnessed Yotsuba Mahiro using some kind of magic to reverse life and death, pulling the two back from the brink of death.

Oh, and there's a vampire too.

She then investigated the siblings' background, and what she found there was astonishing; her expression turned serious afterward.

The siblings' mother, Misaki Akatsuki, is the chief researcher in the MAR medical department.

The father is Jou Akatsuki, a man known as the "Returner from the Underworld," who has survived many dangerous ruins on his own. He even went to the "Death Capital" ruins, where he is said to have encountered fatal danger, but still managed to return alive.

He survived the attack by the [Dead Emperor's Younger Brother] Gren Khasalov last time; I don't know how he managed to live.

It's practically an unkillable cockroach.

But the most crucial person is their grandmother, Hisano Akatsuki.

Born into a family of magic users, he is a priest at the Kamioda Shrine.

Hisano Akatsuki trained many disciples to work for the Lion King Agency, forming a cross-organizational succession network.

And most importantly, the spiritual medium qualities that Nagisa Akatsuki inherited came from Hisano Akatsuki.

Furthermore, the last time the siblings went to Gozo Island, it wasn't just for tourism; Jou Akatsuki wanted to use Nagisa Akatsuki's physique to awaken Avrora Florestina.

I really don't know how much of a scoundrel this man must be to let his daughter do something so dangerous!

Although she was furious inside, her time with Yotsuba Mahiro had forged a strong heart, and she quickly calmed her anger, coldly saying:

"The brother and sister came with their mother Misaki Akatsuki, who currently serves as the research director at the MAR Itogami Island branch."

"Oh."
