Maya Shiba and Miya Shiba were originally siblings, and their relationship was once very close. However, after Maya Yotsuba became the head of the Yotsuba Family, their relationship gradually became distant. This estrangement became even more apparent after Miya Yotsuba's wife passed away. As for the various incidents that Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba experienced, they were actually orchestrated by Miya Shiba and with the tacit approval of some of the family elders.
Although Maya Yotsuba felt a slight aversion to this behavior at the time, she was, after all, a new head of the family, with a low status and weak voice, far less prestigious than she is now. Her words carried significant influence on the family's decisions, and this was indeed inseparable from the support and assistance of Baifeng Uesugi.
"That's right. From what I understand, I went to see Tatsuya late at Miya during the Nine Schools Competition. But Tatsuya's attitude was unusually cold," Maya Yotsuba said truthfully.
"Oh? Could it be that Miya has changed his mind and wants to repair their broken family relationship?" Baifeng Uesugi looked astonished.
"Perhaps that's true, but he's still old-fashioned. Otherwise, why would he pin his hopes on acquiring those unfathomable magics?" Maya Yotsuba sighed helplessly.
"Actually, I've always been quite curious. Is the position of head of the family really that alluring? That it can make so many people yearn for it?" Baifeng Uesugi sighed helplessly. "I can't say for sure, but if it were up to me, I'd rather give up this position. Otherwise, I'd be entangled in all sorts of trivial matters all day long, how would I have time to spend with you!" Maya Yotsuba gently leaned her head on Baifeng Uesugi's shoulder and said softly.
Upon hearing this, Baifeng Uesugi's heart stirred, and he suggested, "Why don't we find a suitable time to pass the position of head of the family to someone else?" In recent days, he had personally witnessed Maya Yotsuba's busy situation - even when she was at home, she had to bury herself in handling family affairs, and she was simply overwhelmed with work.
After a moment of silence Maya Yotsuba replied, "Let's wait and see. Once I'm no longer the head of the family, my authority to mobilize the Yotsuba Family's resources will be greatly limited. After I've taken care of things for you, I'll step down from this position. As for the successor... how about Miya?" she asked thoughtfully.
" Miya? I think he's going a bit too far. Actually, I think Tatsuya pretty good." Baifeng Uesugi said earnestly.
" Tatsuya? But Tatsuya's emotions were blocked during the adjustment process, so I feel he's not quite right now," Maya Yotsuba said, frowning in thought.
"That's easy. We just need to resolve the problems from back then. Besides, Tatsuya's emotional issues can't continue like this. And when I was at the academy, I noticed that his emotional situation seemed to be improving," Baifeng Uesugi explained casually.
"It might not be as serious as you think."
"Really? But how do you plan to help him resolve his emotional issues?" Maya Yotsuba asked curiously.
"Initially, it was because the magic system was too large, so some unnecessary parts of Tatsuya were removed to allow his brain to have sufficient capacity to hold magic. So, reducing the magic capacity should solve the problem. I still need to verify everything," Baifeng Uesugi replied confidently.
"Being able to fix Tatsuya's emotional problems is fantastic! If it really can be done, then without a doubt, Tatsuya the most suitable candidate." Maya Yotsuba's face lit up with joy, expressing her complete agreement.
"Yes, then I'll personally verify it over the next period of time to see if I can successfully reduce Tatsuya's magic capacity."
Shan Bai Feng said firmly.
It's important to understand that Tatsuya Shiba's magic is extremely unique and powerful. Its basic abilities can be divided into two categories: Regrowth and Decomposition. Regrowth allows any target to rewind to a specific point in time, while Decomposition can reduce any target to nothingness. Although these skills may seem simple to describe, they actually contain an enormous amount of information, which is why they fill the entire capacity of Tatsuya Shiba's brain.
In the days that followed, Baifeng Uesugi devoted himself entirely to studying Innate Magic. He gave it his all, hoping to master the two Innate Magic techniques he was currently researching as soon as possible and ensure that he could execute them perfectly. After all, there was still an extremely difficult and demanding research task waiting for him to complete in the future.
Time flies, and a whole month has passed since Mayumi Saegusa returned to school.
During this time, Tatsuya Shiba school was exceptionally fulfilling. He diligently assisted Rei-chan in completing the experimental work for her graduation thesis.
However, the situation for Miyuki Shiba and Mayumi Saegusa was not optimistic. Especially for Miyuki Shiba, when she learned that Mayumi Saegusa had become Baifeng Uesugi's person, her emotions once again became extremely out of control. If it weren't for Mayumi Saegusa's timely persuasion and role, the situation would probably have become very serious.
Time flies, and after more than a month, Baifeng Uesugi has finally mastered two unique skills— Innate Magic! One of them is the astonishing " Absolute Defense," which can build an unbreakable defensive line within a specific area, easily resisting both fierce magical attacks and powerful physical assaults without leaving a trace. In fact, this skill is inspired by the awe-inspiring Phalanx of Katsuto Jumonji, but it surpasses it, becoming even more superior.
Another Innate Magic is called " Eternal Night," a fitting name that, when cast, plunges those within a specific area into endless darkness, as if they were in a long, unending night. Once enveloped by this mysterious Innate Magic, they are trapped in a boundless illusion from which they cannot escape. However, the illusion experienced by each person varies greatly depending on their state of mind—some tremble with fear, some are overjoyed, some are filled with grief and indignation... all of which are left unsaid.
After equipping the two Innate Magic, Baifeng Uesugi secretly pondered how to allocate these two powerful cards. After some thought, he decided to give " Eternal Night Maya Yotsuba.
