Shirou's clones number 30 million

"Wait a minute! That guy! I'll never forget that face."

Before the age of five, I lived with Erina.

Although they were separated by distance, they agreed to keep in touch by writing letters regularly.

For this reason, I wrote many, many letters.

However, he never received a response from Erina.

I initially thought it might be that her reply was sent to the wrong address, or for some other reason, but that day, I witnessed Azami Nakiri tearing up all her letters in front of the mailbox at her doorstep.

Then, everything became clear.

He wrote so many letters, but not a single one reached Erina. They were all intercepted and destroyed by Azami Nakiri.

If he hadn't done such a despicable thing, my relationship with Erina would definitely be better now!

Therefore, he is Alice Nakiri's lifelong enemy.

Azami Nakiri glanced around, strode to the high platform in the hall, picked up the microphone, and loudly proclaimed:

"I am Azami Nakiri. By decision of the school, I have become the new Commander-in-Chief. Now, as the new Commander-in-Chief of Totsuki Academy, I hereby announce an order."

"This residential training program has now come to an end. All students, please pack your belongings and prepare to return to school."

"We will be using this hall soon, so please leave as soon as possible."

The next moment, the audience erupted in an uproar.

"Who is this guy? He actually claims to be the new commander-in-chief of Totsuki Academy."

"This guy I've never heard of before doesn't look impressive at all."

"What on earth is going on? I woke up to find that the Supreme Commander of Totsuki Academy has been replaced?"

"Where were the resort staff? Why didn't they stop him? They just let him spout nonsense."

"Aren't those the members of the Top Ten behind him? And so many famous seniors too. Could it be that he's telling the truth? Impossible!"

Amidst the whispers and pointing fingers, Alice Nakiri clenched her fists, glaring angrily at Azami Nakiri.

Based on her understanding of Azami Nakiri, that guy would never say something like that without being sure of himself.

In other words, he has definitely already obtained Totsuki.

But, as I said before, how is that possible?

Chapter 180 The Fox and the Tiger

Chapter 180, Section 181: The Fox and the Tiger

"It's been a long time, Uncle Ji."

Alice Nakiri stepped forward, looked directly at Azami Nakiri on the stage, and asked expressionlessly:

"There is absolutely no way my grandfather would pass on the Totsuki clan, which he has devoted his life to, to you. So, how did you get the position of Supreme Commander?"

"Alice, thank you for taking care of Erina." A hint of mockery flashed across Azami Nakiri's face.

“Answer my question.”

Alice Nakiri, whose skin was already very fair, exuded an even colder aura when her expression darkened.

"Totsuki, how did you get your hands on it?"

"Have you forgotten the Council of the Ten Heroes? As long as more than half of the Ten Heroes agree, a motion to replace the Commander-in-Chief can be initiated. And this motion has just been passed."

"what?"

Alice Nakiri's expression changed slightly. If he said that, it must be true.

Given my grandfather's personality, he would never stoop to playing dirty tricks, nor would he deny it to the death.

After all, the decision on everything at Totsuki Academy can be made with the consent of half of the elites; this has been the system since the academy's founding.

If they stubbornly deny it or change the school rules at the last minute, they can still cling to the position of headmaster.

But if we did that, all of the school's rules and the reputation that Yuyue has built up over the years would be destroyed.

As the saying goes, a gentleman can be deceived by his principles.

Azami Nakiri seized the position of commander-in-chief of Totsuki Academy by knowing that his grandfather would never break the rules he had upheld his entire life.

I never imagined that this system, which was originally intended to enhance students' autonomy, would lead to a change of ownership at Totsuki Academy.

This kind of thing would never have happened in any other school, or if a less rigid person had been the principal.

After all, if the top ten students in a school unite, they can change the principal.

Such an extraordinary event is unheard of anywhere in the world.

However, Azami Nakiri was originally his grandfather's son-in-law.

So, in the eyes of outsiders, this is probably just a normal case of a son inheriting his father's business, right?

Although she had figured out what had happened, Alice Nakiri still couldn't help but struggle and shouted:

"What you're saying makes no sense! No matter how powerful the Ten Outstanding Students are, they're still just students. How can students unite to drive out the principal and then replace him with someone else?"

"According to your logic, if I could win over more than five of the Ten Heroes, wouldn't I also become the Supreme Commander?"

"Being one of the top ten is not a difficult task."

Azami Nakiri showed a hint of surprise on his face, then nodded slightly:

"You've reminded me, Alice. I'll change the school rules right away and add the clause that the Supreme Commander cannot be decided by the students."

"what!"

What a despicable fellow!

He used this method to oust his grandfather and become the commander-in-chief, and then, to prevent others from using the same method to oust him, he made a decision to redefine the rules.

Azami Nakiri glanced at his watch, then looked at Alice again and said in a deep voice:

"Time is running out. Let's end the explanation of why I became the new commander-in-chief here."

“Next, I will use this hall to entertain some special guests. As a member of the Nakiri family, Alice is qualified to participate, and I can give you a spot.”

They really are quite aloof and superior.

Alice Nakiri glanced at him disdainfully, about to refuse, when she suddenly remembered Erina, who hadn't shown up for the past few days.

The selection of the Supreme Commander will be decided through the Ten Great Meetings. As one of the Ten Greats, Erina should also participate, right?

Erina seems to have always been afraid of Azami Nakiri. I wonder how she is doing now?

"Will Erina participate?"

"Perhaps."

"Then I want to participate too."

More than an hour later, foreign businessmen and local politicians who had been invited by Azami Nakiri arrived one after another.

Led by staff from the Far Moon Resort, they took their seats one by one.

Sitting in the middle of the hall, Alice Nakiri couldn't help but feel nervous. She glanced again at Azami Nakiri, who was chatting with someone in the distance, and thought to herself:

These people are either extremely famous wealthy businessmen or powerful officials. How did he manage to invite them?

Even my grandfather couldn't possibly invite so many people all at once.

In that instant, she began to understand, to some extent, why Azami Nakiri was able to seize the position of Commander-in-Chief.

If all these people supported him, even his grandfather wouldn't have been able to withstand the pressure.

After all, Totsuki Culinary Academy has never been just a culinary school.

Sitting alone in the middle of the hall, looking at the tables almost completely full around her, and at her own table alone, Alice Nakiri felt confused and unconsciously thought:

What exactly does Azami Nakiri mean? Why is he leaving me sitting here alone? Is he trying to intimidate me?

No, it shouldn't be that bad.

Moreover, everyone here is rich and powerful, so even if he were targeting me, he couldn't be so obvious about it.

As I was lost in thought, someone else walked in from the hall.

Before Alice Nakiri could even notice who had entered through the door, she suddenly realized that everyone around her had stood up, and she froze in place.

Looking around the hall, all the wealthy businessmen and high-ranking officials who had been chatting were now standing ramrod straight, as if they were welcoming people at the door.

Turning her head, she saw Erina and the man who had previously partnered with her walk in together.

"what……?"

Erina? Impossible!

No matter how you look at it, they couldn't possibly have come to welcome Erina.

Could it be that man? Who exactly is he?

Lost in thought, I heard whispers around me.

"I didn't expect that Nakiri would actually bring Mr. Sakurai over. It seems that what he said before wasn't just bragging."

"The girl next to Mr. Sakurai must be Nakiri's daughter, right? She seems to have a good relationship with Mr. Sakurai. That Nakiri guy is really something."

"It seems we need to pay more attention to Nakiri from now on. Otherwise, what if he becomes the Boss's father-in-law..."

"I wonder if the boss still remembers me? Should I go up and say hello? But there are so many people around, it's not appropriate."

Alice Nakiri looked back and forth at the whispering crowd, her mind filled with astonishment.

What's going on here? Why are all these people acting so humble and subservient?

That guy seemed to be of high status and very respected.

Could he actually be a prince of some country? Even so, it seems unlikely.

"Mr. Sakurai, welcome to witness this grand occasion of the change of commander-in-chief at Totsuki Academy." Azami Nakiri walked quickly to the door and said with a smile, "Please come this way, your seat is here."

Looking at the bright smile on his face, Erina felt extremely awkward.

That stern, vicious, and cruel father could actually show such a fawning smile—how disgusting!
