Abnormal Moon

So, it seems, this was actually to conceal the presence of the seventh person?

The purpose of having someone hide here is probably only one: to be wary of this unfamiliar sorcerer with top-tier strength!

Right.

Old Deng, who held power like them, was extremely afraid of death. How could he possibly meet with them without doing anything?

Considering that the guards' strength must be at least equal, is this person hiding in the shadows Gojo Satoru, Otsukotsu Yuta, or Tsukumo Yuki?

Or other sorcerers with super high mobility who could rescue them all the moment the battle started... Roy had never heard of such a person existing in this world.

It's more likely the former.

"Your Excellency, such a significant matter as adding seats requires the consent of both the Chief Minister and the Prime Minister. As for the Prime Minister, whatever his wishes may be, he has no say in the affairs of our Spellcasting Department. As for the Chief Minister... if Your Excellency can grant me one request, I can stand on your side and speak to the Chief Minister on your behalf."

At this moment, an elderly Chinese man suddenly spoke up.

He pondered for a long time, and when he spoke, his tone was as taut as a bowstring, as if he were making a high-stakes gamble.

The figures behind the other windows and doors also seemed surprised by his attitude, and they all fell silent, intending to observe his plans.

"ask?"

"good."

The man nodded solemnly.

Following closely behind was the saying, "If you don't say something shocking, you'll die trying."

"I have a granddaughter. I ask that you take her as a concubine. She must bear me at least one child, and I hope that this child will return to my family!"

"……what?"

Even though Roy had prepared himself mentally, he was still completely bewildered by the old man's antics.

I've never seen a condition for him to rise to power being that he take his granddaughter as a concubine!

And do they have to return to their family after giving birth?

What's the matter.

Do you expect my child to inherit the position of head of your family?

Isn't this a classic case of losing both wife and army?

"You don't want to..."

"I see!"

"How cunning!"

Roy hadn't even realized what was happening yet.

The other elderly Chinese men began to shout in disbelief.

"You're targeting his genes, aren't you? No, you should say, his innate magical abilities!"

"Being born with a technique is a hereditary talent. The reason why the three major families have stood firm is because each of them has several innate techniques with varying powers passed down through generations!"

"This guy wants to pass down the life-giving techniques of foreign sorcerers as his family's heritage..."

Roy understood.

But as he understood, he couldn't help but feel a stomachache.

By the way, the techniques one is born with can indeed be inherited; techniques that appeared in one's ancestors may appear in one's descendants.

Especially those spells that demonstrated extraordinary power hundreds of years ago, as the direct descendants of those spell holders, they still hope to inherit that powerful force.

The reason why the three major families have so many descendants in each generation and still maintain the custom of having multiple wives and concubines is to give birth to children who can inherit the powerful magic of their ancestors.

And at the same time.

The three major families will also try their best to recruit outstanding sorcerers and have them marry into their families. In this way, the sorcerers' techniques may be inherited by their descendants and become the family's treasured heritage.

Especially those powerful lone mages, they are highly sought after by the three major families, and are considered walking treasures.

For example, yiguyoutai.

For example, Roy.

Every sorcerer family wants them to marry into their family, so that their spells can become their family's inherited spells, allowing their family to be prominent even a hundred years later.

Even the senior members of the General Affairs Department, although they chose the path of politicians, are all sorcerers. Some of them come from families of sorcerers, and some may even be pawns of the three major families to enter the political arena.

They all deeply understood that a powerful magic formula was the foundation for the family's long-term prosperity.

They desperately wanted Roy and Yuta's genes.

Because they are so obsessed with power, if there is any hope of inheriting the techniques of these top-level experts, then it is not impossible for them to give away not only their granddaughters, but also their daughters, daughters-in-law, or even their wives.

However, special-class individuals like Roy and Etoyo are not subject to coercion through power.

The special-grades have such a high degree of freedom that they can easily cause crippling damage to the country of Japan. Even the Directorate General is no big deal to them. The Directorate General cannot force them to do things they are unwilling to do.

Although they were very unwilling, even they could only use benefits and beauty to lure others and use transactions to try to obtain the technique.

"Since that's the case, then I also have a daughter! If you're willing to take her in, I'll put in a good word for you with the chief!"

“I also have two nieces, both quite beautiful, and they’re twins… Even you, sir, couldn’t possibly be unaware of the Zen-in family’s reputation, could you?”

Old Deng's first words were like flipping a switch.

Two more of the six old men stood up one after another, their voices impassioned, like generals reviewing their troops on the battlefield.

But who would have thought that they weren't ordering soldiers, but their own daughters and nieces, wanting to give them away as concubines?

And those twins from the Zen temple family, could they be the twins he was imagining?

You really don't care about the wishes of your descendants at all!

How did such a family survive in modern society?

In the eyes of these old men, Roy's value had now surpassed that of Eto'oku.

Although Yi Gu You Tai is strong, he is still quite inexperienced and needs more training.

Roy, on the other hand, was already a very mature and powerful individual. He single-handedly overpowered three top-tier curse spirits and then appeared completely unharmed. Even disregarding his techniques, his value as a person alone was immeasurable.

If we can take this opportunity to bring him to our side, then even if we have to sacrifice some of our interests in the General Headquarters, it will be well worth it!

While the three of them took turns seducing Roy.

The aura of the seventh person in the corner once again escaped uncontrollably, as if he was angered by their shameless behavior.

"I disagree!"

Don't you think you look terrible?

"This is a disgrace to Japan!"

The other three old men were so angry that they jumped up and down, pointing at the other three and cursing them out.

"Oh? Do you really think so?"

"After all, you come from humble origins and have a small population."

"I doubt you have any eligible descendants in your family. If you did, you wouldn't be saying this now."

The other three were equally unwilling to admit defeat, some smiling, others sneering, as they unleashed their utmost sarcasm.

We've been colleagues for so long, who doesn't know who we are?

It means they don't have any eligible descendants in their families, otherwise they would be just as shameless as them.

They are essentially power chasers, willing to do anything for power. They may put on a show of respect in public, but when it comes to their own interests, they will all run away as fast as they can.

"So it looks like it's three against three?"

Roy looked at the almost farcical situation before him.

Although he was speechless about the situation, he would never let go of anything that could be used.

"In that case, it depends on the opinions of Principal Nightmoth and Principal Rakanji..."

Roy was recommended the Zen Institute twins, and Old Deng, who was probably from the Zen Institute family, frowned upon seeing this.

As long as they can obtain Roy's genes, they wouldn't mind if the descendants of all three families attacked together, as the three families still maintain the custom of having multiple wives and concubines.

The three old men who tried to bribe Roy all had the same idea.

As for the competition for Roy himself, it depends on each person's ability—but there is a prerequisite: Roy must join the world of neon sorcery.

Therefore, the three of them naturally ended up on the same side.

The other three opponents stood on a different front.

With six old men, three in favor and three against, a stalemate ensued.

In that case, we'll have to see what the presidents of the two colleges think.

"Make the call now, I'll wait here."

Roy looked around.

Are there any chairs?

"Wait a moment, I'll have someone bring it over."
