The moonlight shimmered with a riot of colors beneath the fireworks that night.
The square in front of the castle was bustling. Crowds of spectators had gathered there for the lively Fireworks Festival.
Yong walked alone along the edge of the square, taking in Lily of the Valley Island's scenery, so different from Ever Grande City's, and enjoying the evening breeze.
"Hello! Sorry to bother you..."
A gentle greeting came from behind him.
Yong turned around and smiled at the boy before him.
"Hello, Yota!"
Yota Ishu wore a pale blue shirt and leaned against the nearby railing. At the greeting, he chuckled softly.
"I've heard a great deal about you, Mr. Shiyan Yong."
Yong leaned against the railing as well, looked up at the moon, and asked quietly,
"Did you need something from me? This is our first meeting, isn't it?"
"You don't need to be so wary, Mr. Shiyan Yong. I'm not like Muren Under the Moon, and Water Ishu isn't like Evil Under the Moon..."
Yong looked at him and smiled.
"I'll agree with you there!"
Yota Ishu smiled warmly.
"Thank you for your approval! And indeed, although the Ishida family isn't one of the Seventeen Families, it's developing rapidly, especially with its upcoming move into the Kalos Region. With you around, the Ishida family's rise is inevitable."
Thinking of his father, his mother, and Uncle Zhibian, Yong smiled silently.
The boy before him truly lived up to his position as Water Ishu's heir.
Like rain that nourished everything without a sound...
Compared to Under the Moon, who seemed domineering, acted strangely, and stopped at nothing, the Ishu were the opposite extreme.
In terms of strength, Water Ishu ranked among the best of the Seventeen Families!
They ranked fifth, behind only Steel Stone, Normal Oak, Psychic Ashita,
