Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

------

Fujisawa Ayana waited outside the school gate, gazing in the direction of the teaching building, hoping to spot Isaac as soon as possible.

Soon, she spotted Isaac walking out of the crowd with a handbag.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. I took care of some things, so I'm a little late."

"That's not true."

"Let's go grab something to eat together, since you know this place well."

"Ah."

……

Isaac and Ayana Fujisawa walked out of the school gate together, and Shota Yoshinaga also limped out a short while later.

In any case, receiving a large sum of money today is a pleasant surprise.

My family was already poor, and we didn't even have money for next month's rent. If we couldn't come up with the money, we would really have to go homeless.

Fortunately, Isaac gave him several hundred thousand dollars today, which solved his immediate problem.

He used some of the money to buy some ingredients that he wouldn't normally dare to buy, and walked towards his somewhat dilapidated rented room.

"I am back."

"elder brother!"

As soon as he stepped inside, two adorable little girls jumped on him.

"Mina, Maiko, were you good at school today?"

Yes, there is. x2

"Great! I bought some good stuff for you guys to eat today."

Yoshinaga Shota picked up the plastic bag in his hand, which contained beef and various seafood.

"Hey? Why did you buy such expensive food today, brother?"

"Hahaha, I made a little money."

The door to the room opened, and an elderly woman with a somewhat aged face came out. She was Yoshinaga Shota's grandmother.

After his parents passed away, he formed a family of four with his grandmother and two younger sisters.

"Shota, why did you suddenly buy so much stuff today?"

“I recently found a rich boss and I’m working for him,” Yoshinaga Shota said with a smile.

"That's good. You'll have to thank them properly later," Grandma said with a smile. "Remember, never do anything illegal or disorderly."

"Of course, definitely."

He readily agreed.

I'm just providing some information to this new transfer student... that shouldn't be considered illegal or against the rules, right?

------------

"Tsk, this transfer student named Rentaro Satomi is a bit too arrogant."

On their way home from school, Mao Shibuya and Shiori Okui walked together.

What happened today instilled a certain fear in them of the name 'Rentaro Satomi', but they don't seem to be giving up.

"We must eliminate this problem before we can continue dealing with Fujisawa."

“But what should we do?” Okui Shiori frowned. “If Tsujimura is right, the police in the Shirasaki area were transferred because of him, then this matter is not as easy as we think.”

"Hmph, other classmates might believe it, but I don't," Shibuya Mao said dismissively. "Haven't you been watching the news lately? There was an explosion in Kabukicho, Tokyo, supposedly caused by a foreign yakuza. The police here were probably transferred there as support."

"But is it necessary to transfer him from Shirasaki? Besides, we don't have any means to deal with him right now."

“We have plenty of ways to deal with him,” Shibuya Mao said with a wicked smile. “He may be very good at fighting, but don’t forget that there’s someone in our class who can handle him.”

"You mean... Tokiwa Ren?"

Tokiwa Ren, the delinquent recorded in Isaac's files, had already been excluded from Isaac's list of agents from the very beginning.

As a delinquent, he was extremely bad at school, beating his classmates into the hospital several times, and even the teachers couldn't do anything about him.

"Once we get him to deal with Satomi, we'll have time to deal with Fujisawa." Shibuya Mao had a bright idea in mind. "She dared to hire such a bastard to protect her. What should we do with her afterwards? How about we just take off her clothes after school and throw them in front of those thugs? I'm sure they'll love it."

"Not bad."

As they walked along the road, chatting and laughing, they didn't notice that there was no one around them anymore.

Suddenly, several cars drove up to them and surrounded them.

"W-what happened?"

"I do not know."

The two looked somewhat flustered at the vehicles that had surrounded them.

The car door opened, and several burly men in camouflage uniforms and a woman in military uniform with half her face burned got out of the car and looked at them.

It was Balalaika and the people from the 'Moscow Hotel'.

“They are the people Isaac is looking for. Take them away,” Balalaika said.

"Yes!"

Several burly men accepted the order and slowly walked towards them.

"Wait, you guys..."

Pfft!

The syringe plunged into their necks, and they both lost consciousness instantly.

Chapter 643: Angel or Demon

In a dessert shop, Isaac and Ayana Fujisawa sat together.

This place is very close to the school, and most of the people who come here are students from Shirasaki Junior High School, so the customer flow is quite considerable.

"I didn't expect you to choose this store."

“Yes, it’s been a long time since I’ve been here,” Ayana said with a smile.

Since being bullied, she has rarely been able to avoid being extorted for her money, and she hasn't been able to come to dessert shops like this for a long time.

"Well, that kind of thing won't happen again."

As soon as Isaac finished speaking, his pocket began to vibrate.

He took out his phone and looked at it. There was a text message from Balalaika saying that the two people he requested had been caught and that she had even taken pictures of them.

The scene shown in the photo is in an abandoned factory, where two girls wearing Shirasaki school uniforms are tied to chairs.

"They're quite efficient; no wonder they're former Soviet soldiers."

Isaac silently closed his phone and quickly finished the food on the table.

"Is something urgent, Rentaro?"

Ayana had been watching Isaac very closely since earlier, and her observation of him quickly swallowing his food after looking at his phone was not unnoticed.

"I have some things to take care of tonight, but it's not urgent," Isaac said with a smile.

"Then let's go back first."

Knowing that Isaac seemed to have some urgent matter, Ayana very considerately packed up the food on her table.

"I'm sorry, but I'll invite you to my house for dinner sometime. I'm quite confident in my cooking skills."

"Yes, I'm really looking forward to it."

Ayana's face lit up with a smile.

……

The two houses had a passageway cut between them. After saying goodbye to each other, Ayana returned to her own home.

"I am back."

"Welcome home, Ayana," Mrs. Fujisawa said with a smile as she saw her daughter return home. "Did you have a good day at school?"

"I'm quite happy."

Inside the house, not only Mrs. Fujisawa was present, but Ayana's father, Fujisawa Soichiro, was also sitting at the dining table. He sat there reading the newspaper, not even glancing up at his daughter as she returned.

However, Ayana was already used to it, and went upstairs to put her schoolbag in her room.

"Cai Cai, you can eat in a little while."

"it is good."

The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite strange.

Neither Ayana nor her father said a word, which made Mrs. Fujisawa very embarrassed.

"By the way, Ayana, you mentioned something happened at school, and you didn't want to go back..."

“I was bullied at school,” Ayana said frankly. “You all saw the wounds on my body.”

"This one……"

At this moment, her father spoke up:

“Your grades have always been mediocre, only your science grades are okay, and you're not good at sports either. It's not right to skip school because of something so small. Anyway, you can't do anything right, so at least make sure you go to school every day.”

“Yes, Ayana, you must listen to your father and not throw a tantrum.” Mrs. Fujisawa immediately spoke up for her husband, “Look at that Tsukamoto Miho you used to know, she…”

Ayana listened silently to her parents' lecture.

Without a doubt, they didn't care about my feelings at all; no matter how badly I was bullied at school, they would still insist that I go to school.

The father was only concerned with saving face, and the mother always obeyed him.

'As expected, Rentaro is the only one in this world who cares about me.'

"Don't worry." Ayana smiled at her parents. "I won't throw a tantrum. I will go to school every day from now on."

"Well, that's good then," Fujisawa Soichiro said calmly.
