At that moment, Kaguya's gentle voice came through the headphones.
"What is the content of the email?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.
"An invitation to enroll."
Princess Kaguya said, "It's an invitation to Young Master Mu from Kassel College."
Yuan Zhisheng's eyes turned solemn.
'The downside of requesting Norma's help is that Little Wood is now exposed to the Camarilla's watchful eyes.'
"Reject him outright. Just say that Xiao Mu's bloodline is inferior and he doesn't meet the admission standards of Kassel College," he said decisively.
Xia Mu heard this and turned around to look.
Princess Kaguya paused for a moment, then said softly, "The email clearly states Young Master Mu's identity: the young head of the Uesugi family, one of the top three families of the Snake Clan. Just like you back then, he didn't participate in the 3E exam and was directly given an 'A' grade rating."
Since the Snake Clan is a descendant of the White King, they are naturally unable to resonate with the Black King's dragon runes. Therefore, from the beginning, they fought for the right not to participate in the dragon bloodline assessment and were directly assigned a rank according to their status.
Sword Comes
The top three heirs are directly classified as Grade A, the other five as Grade B, and ordinary family members are classified as Grade C.
In fact, this assessment greatly underestimated the level of the Snake Clan's hybrid race, but they didn't care about the Kassel College's rating at all.
They knew that their family's 'Amaterasu no Mikoto' Genji was a hybrid far exceeding S-class, while 'Tsukuyomi no Mikoto' Uesugi was an extremely evil demon, no weaker than Genji.
Of course, Xia Mu knew her own limitations...
"The invitation was signed by Hilbert Jean Angers."
Genji was still thinking of a reasonable reason to refuse, but Kaguya's additional sentence completely dispelled his illusions.
Angers personally took notice of the matter and noticed Xia Mu, which was the last thing he wanted to happen.
"She only requested assistance in searching a city, yet Norma somehow managed to uncover all of Xiaomu's intelligence reports and give them to Angers..."
Genji rubbed his temples and said to Kaguya, "Let's delay replying for now and wait for the head of the family to decide."
"We have informed the head of the family that he is waiting for you to return at the Tokyo airport."
Princess Kaguya fell silent.
Yuan Zhisheng sighed wearily, turned around and saw Xia Mu's gaze. He subconsciously reached out to touch her head, but then awkwardly froze in mid-air.
"It's nothing, don't worry."
He spoke in a tone used to coax a child.
Xia Mu nodded, looked away, and turned back to the window.
Odin's Word of Power completely drew him into this treacherous world of dragons, from which he could never escape.
In this world, bloodline and the power of words are everything.
'System, have the new exchange items been added?' he asked in his mind.
[Upgrading.]
Xia Mu rested her chin on her hand, looking out the window without moving.
Not long after, the chartered plane began to slowly descend.
As expected, Tachibana Masamune was waiting in a black van. When he saw Genjiro and Natsuki, a warm, fatherly smile appeared on his face.
"Xiao Mu, it's good that you're back."
He reached out and patted Xia Mu's head.
'You'll be in for a surprise when you find out I don't have the White King's bloodline.'
Xia Mu got into the car, thinking with a hint of malice.
I really wanted to find an opportunity to stab him, but unfortunately, the one in front of me was probably some kind of puppet shadow warrior.
The unassuming van drove away from the airport.
Natsuki sat alone in the back, while Tachibana Masamune and Genjiro were engrossed in their conversation, completely ignoring his presence.
"Chisei, what do you think about Angers inviting Koki to study at the Kassel College?" Tachibana Masamune's tone became serious.
“Father, we absolutely cannot let Xiao Mu go to Kassel College, otherwise he will be exiled to a deserted island by the Camarilla and kept under guard, and our bloodline secrets may be exposed.”
Yuan Zhisheng laid out all his thoughts along the way.
Even if it's an invitation from Angers, we only have the option to refuse.
Chapter Twelve: I Want to Sing
“Refuse…Angers…”
Tachibana Masamune tapped the back of the chair repeatedly with his fingers, making a soft sound in the quiet carriage.
Xia Mu's head was facing out the window, but out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at his expression and wondered what kind of struggle and troubles were hidden beneath his calm face.
'If I really did completely swap lives with Erii, it would mean I'd be the one stuck at home, unable to go out. That wouldn't be a good life…'
'Herzog and Angers, Angers is safer. Anyway, I don't have the White King's blood, so there's no risk of me being imprisoned.'
He was thinking to himself.
But it would be too difficult to reassure Tachibana Masamune and Genjiro about his going to Kassel College.
How to do it...?
“We were too nervous. Other Secretaries might not care, but Angers has been keeping a close eye on us.”
My Iceberg Beauty Wife
Tachibana Masamune sighed and said to Kaguya, "Reply to the email and express the Sheqi family's apology in the most tactful way. Kogi is already the head of the Uesugi family and is no longer the heir. It is not appropriate for him to continue his studies as a student."
"Yes."
Princess Kaguya responded.
"Dad, what will someone like Angers do if he gets rejected?" Genji asked worriedly.
Tachibana Masamune casually remarked, "He might come himself to check if there's anything wrong with Koki."
A bead of sweat appeared on Yuan Zhisheng's forehead: "He wouldn't come all the way here himself for something like this, would he?"
“Whether he comes in person or not depends solely on whether he has time, and has nothing to do with how important the matter is. Of course, if he knows about the matter concerning God, he will definitely come,” said Tachibana Masamune.
Yuan Zhisheng frowned and sighed: "It's really troublesome that someone who is over a hundred years old still has such vigorous energy."
"Norma sent a reply email."
Princess Kaguya's voice rang out at that moment.
"What did Angers say?"
Genjiro and Tachibana Masamune spoke almost in unison.
Princess Kaguya reported: "Angers said in the email that it's up to him whether or not someone is suitable to study at the academy; if he says it's suitable, then it's suitable."
The ellipsis on Genjiro's forehead stretched all the way to Tachibana Masamune's forehead, and the two looked at each other in silence.
“How about we transfer Xiaomu to the Ganryu Research Institute? We can tell Angers that he has gone abroad on business,” Genji suggested.
“That will only make him cling to it,” Masamune Tachibana shook his head. “We need to find a way to dispel his curiosity.”
Norma sent another email.
At this moment, Princess Kaguya's voice interrupted again: "Angers replied that they will send an executive department intern to investigate the head of the Uesugi family. He will arrive in Tokyo in three days."
Tachibana Masamune lifted his eyelids, a smile appearing on his lips: "Looks like Angers is busy."
"Dad..."
Genjiro rested his chin on his hand and said slowly, "Do you think Angers might not be that attentive to Xiaomu, but is actually just trying to intimidate our branch?"
Tachibana Masamune smiled: "You're right. While we're worried about Koki being exposed, we can't ignore Angers' true intentions."
“All he wanted to do was say, ‘If I send the head of the Uesugi family of the Snake Clan, he has to come,’ just like he did to me a few years ago,” Genjiro said.
Tachibana Masamune glanced at Natsuki and sighed, "But Natsuki is the one who absolutely cannot go."
"Let's figure out a way to fool that commissioner and make him believe that Xiao Mu doesn't have the talent of a mixed-race person," Yuan Zhisheng said decisively. "Since he's an intern commissioner, it means he's a student. Besides, Angers wants Xiao Mu to enroll. The so-called assessment is just a formality. This student won't be an ace. It won't be hard to fool him."
Tachibana Masamune nodded thoughtfully: "This is our territory. Dealing with an ordinary student shouldn't be a problem. It's just a matter of using the temptations of the red-light district and the intimidation of the underworld."
Xia Mu stared blankly out the window, listening intently to their entire conversation.
Ordinary students? Angers is a true educator, and he knows exactly how to treat the root cause.
If he really wants to find out the truth, then the person he sends is most likely... the red-haired witch, Chen Motong.
Her profiling skills are absolutely unmatched when it comes to investigation and intelligence gathering.
"Princess Kaguya, ask Norma who the upcoming student is," said Genjiro.
Princess Kaguya quickly replied, "Norma cannot tell you, because Angers has not yet given a candidate."
Masamune Tachibana pondered, "It seems this person is not simple. We should be cautious and prepare a good disguise for Koki. It would be best to portray him as an idle and irresponsible figure in the family, a marginalized character with very poor talent..."
“No, Dad,” Genji shook his head, “we overreacted before.”
Tachibana Masamune was speechless: "Then I'll have to trouble you."
“Perhaps it could be the identity of managing the family’s wealth?” Genji suggested.
Masamune Tachibana thought for a moment and said, "That's possible, but Koki definitely can't stay in the heavily guarded room any longer. He'll have to stay outside, but that would be extremely risky; he's unstable..."
Silence fell over the carriage.
Xia Mu seemed not to hear what they were saying, and continued to admire the scenery rushing past the window.
System upgrade complete.
He remained calm and said to the system, "Show it to me."
The following is a list of popularity points that can be unlocked by the system:
[1 popularity points: C-grade bloodline.]
[10 popularity points: B-grade bloodline.]
