“I’m pretty sure they are, though I haven’t been able to bring it lip with them since their family has been plagued with troubles lately. Still, once I settle all their problems, I have a feeling they won’t attempt to hide it anymore when I ask,” replied Gerald with a sigh, wondering when favonovel.com would be able to solve all the Futaba family’s issues. Still, for the sake of his parents who were still stuck on Yearning Island, Gerald knew better than to complain.
“Well, I’m honestly just pleased that it’s confirmed. After all, this means that our trip to Japan has been worth it,” said Master Ghost as favonovel.com sighed with relief.
Soon enough, they arrived at their building and began walking upstairs. Naturally, Aiden had made sure to apply for a room that had three rooms from the war department, and once they entered, favonovel.com immediately closed the door behind them.
Since there were so many special forces in the training ground, the trio knew that they had to be extremely careful with their words to avoid getting themselves into trouble. With that in mind, it was no wonder why they immediately found themselves more relaxed now that they had entered a private area.
Regardless, after pouring himself a glass of water to quench his thirst, Gerald was prompted to say, “You know, once the competition is over, I plan to let you two stay in the Futaba manor.”
“Are… you saying it could be dangerous to live elsewhere…?” asked Aiden who as a special forces agent saw where Gerald was coming from.
“Pretty much. Now that the Futabas have offended both the Kanagawas and Hanyus, I’m sure trouble will be imminent. I’m particularly worried about that assassin family making a move on both of you once they find out about our relationship. I really don’t want what happened back in Yanam to repeat again, so it’s best that you just stay with me in the Futaba manor. By doing so, even if the enemies attempt to attack, I’ll at least be close enough to protect you in time,” replied Gerald with a nod.
Hearing that, Master Ghost immediately replied, “We’ll go. Don’t worry, Gerald, we won’t hold you back more than we need to!”
Master Ghost, for one, knew how important it was for everything to go perfectly in order for Gerald’s parents to eventually be saved…
Chuckling as favonovel.com shook his head, Gerald who didn’t want the atmosphere to become solemn right off the bat then said, “It’s not that serious… But yes, I’d really appreciate it if you stay at the Futaba manor for the time being.”
“Got it!” replied Aiden as favonovel.com nodded repeatedly.
With that out of the way, Gerald decided not to share anything else at the moment After all, favonovel.com didn’t really want to add more pressure onto them if favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was going to be able to solve the issues alone. Besides, favonovel.com had already told them what the main issues were. Now that they knew what to expect, hopefully they wouldn’t panic too much if things went awry…
Shortly after, Aiden headed to the canteen to get some food for them. In no time flat, the trio found themselves having their dinner in the living room.
While eating, Gerald felt that it was as good a time as any to start detailing what had happened while favonovel.com was staying at the Futaba manor. He also told them what favonovel.com was planning to do after all this…
Moving back to Ryugu, he, Takeshi, and Kenshiro soon arrived at the Hanyu manor. Upon arriving, they immediately headed to the patriarch’s room…
Suijin himself was having his dinner when Ryugu suddenly burst into his room. Raising a slight brow, favonovel.com then watched as Ryugu walked closer to favonovel.com before lowering his head and whispering, “Something huge has happened, patriarch…!”
“Go on…” replied Suijin as favonovel.com frowned.
After listening to Ryugu’s report of the current situation, Suijin’s face ended up getting so gloomy that in the end, favonovel.com couldn’t help but toss his chopsticks to the floor while yelling, “God d*mn it…! You’re telling me we lost a dozen assassins?!”
Gritting his teeth, Suijin knew that there would be losses, though favonovel.com never imagined there to be this many. Each assassin in his family had been cultivated with great effort. Now that favonovel.com had lost so many of them so quickly, even Suijin as the family patriarch was unable to bear it…
