The three seats were not far away.

The young woman, dressed in a shop assistant's uniform and with a rather good figure, continued to watch their retreating figures with a complicated expression.

Shiina Tatsuki is a first-year high school student at Hanasakigawa Girls' Academy. She is a lone wolf who likes to be alone.

He is serious, rarely smiles, and speaks frankly, like a tomboy, but in essence, he is just a problem child who uses this to protect himself.

Of course, none of the members in the bands they were in were without problems; she was one of the less problematic ones.

It's nothing more than having an older sister who is so outstanding that she feels ashamed of herself.

(Yukinoshita: You too?)

Of course, she wasn't like Xue, who was trying to replicate her sister's path in a twisted way.

But his competitive spirit remains undiminished...

So... was what they just said true?

The girl's beautiful, jewel-like eyes widened as her thoughts churned within her.

The three people didn't speak loudly, but they didn't try to hide anything, since no one would believe them anyway.

At first, she didn't care and just thought it was a gathering of people with chuunibyou (middle school syndrome).

It wasn't until that young man with a smile that made you want to punch him spent 130,000 in one go.

The store manager asked her to keep an eye on things so that the other party wouldn't abandon the two high school students and run away.

Yes, that's definitely the kind of person he is.

She listened from a short distance and quickly determined that this guy was definitely a person with a terrible personality.

But as she listened, she began to lose her sense of direction.

Those two boys weren't just acting like teenagers; they had genuinely encountered something beyond common sense, and ended up here after being rescued...

So, is what that young man called Chaldea and the end of the world true?

That's too surreal.

Shiina Tatsuki really wanted to say that, then finished work as usual and went home, secretly hoping for a call from Akari-chan...

But a voice told her...

Lixi, isn't this what you've been waiting for?

Shedding the label of "ordinary," she is as outstanding as her older sister, or even more outstanding.

She has a full understanding of her own talents. Even her drumming skills, which are very advanced for ordinary people, were achieved through extraordinary hard work.

She's on a completely different level from her older sister, who is the captain of the brass band at Haneoka Girls' Academy and won first place in the regional orchestra competition.

But what if it's another world? What if it's something supernatural, perhaps...

For some inexplicable reason, Shiina Tatsuki absentmindedly asked the store manager for leave.

"They seem to be talking about going to this place where horses are trained, right?"

.......

"So, Rother..."

"Call me Director."

Rosser corrected her as he walked toward the parking lot.

"Alright, Chief Rosser, what are we going to the Toyokawa family for? I remember they're a very famous conglomerate, aren't they?"

"Of course, it's exorcising spirits!"

Rose took out his Onmyoji license card and put it in his chest pocket, looking at him strangely.

Before Hachiman could say anything, his expression changed, and he said resentfully, "I had my eye on a mansion a few days ago, a real old-fashioned one, and they dared to ask for 1.3 billion. Why don't they just rob me?"

Hachiman Hikigaya was internally ranting.

Isn't this robbery?

It's the old-fashioned ones that are valuable.

Moreover, these houses are usually located in good areas, so the prices are already very high.

And you mean you can really come up with over a billion? Just how much money have you swindled from others?!

Even Ayanokoji was starting to lose his composure.

No.

Being a charlatan... okay, the teacher is the real deal, but does he really make money like this?

Judging from the teacher's age, he probably hasn't been out of school for very long, yet he can come up with over a billion yuan?

He's even thinking that once he learns magic, he might get an Onmyoji license and work part-time in that field.

You don't know the cost of firewood, rice, oil, and salt until you're in charge of the household.

His current savings are only enough for next month.

"Don't be envious."

Rosser waved his hand: "You guys work hard for me..."

Hachiman's heart skipped a beat: "I can buy it too?"

"No, it's because I can buy another villa. Don't you know that many people from China have come here to speculate on real estate recently? The housing prices are going to rise. If you have spare money, hurry up and find a good location to buy one. It will definitely appreciate in value."

"I only told you this because you're my younger brothers."

Rosser seemed completely open and honest.

Hachiman's dead fish eyes almost rolled back: "Then thank you, sir."

If he had a billion or even a hundred million, would he need to give up on himself and want to find a rich woman to be a stay-at-home husband?

Ayanokouji stroked his chin and said, "I remember the Toyokawa family was recently swindled out of 168 billion yen, right? They even kicked out their heir because of it. This should just be a test..."

"It might be an internal family feud. These large families are much dirtier than we ordinary people can imagine."

The impoverished Hachiman harbored the most malicious suspicions about these damned rich people.

"Let's go, get in the car."

Rother walked to his mini car and opened the door.

Hikigaya silently gazed at the small, pink car in front of him.

So the car he saw this morning belonged to his superior? Pfft...

After thinking about it, he didn't dare to express his opinion.

But wouldn't people look down on you if you took this kind of car to a wealthy family like the Toyokawa family?

Although not as powerful as top-tier conglomerates like Shinomiya or Suzuki, the Toyokawa family is still a large conglomerate with wealth reaching hundreds of billions of dollars!

Half an hour later.

Sitting in the back seat, through the glass, Hachiman looked at the two rows of men in black suits standing straight and solemn on both sides of the road leading to the classical manor.

There was also a group of Toyokawa's close associates who arrived at the door as if welcoming an important figure, and he remained silent.

Good heavens, could the commander really be some big shot?

Book 1: Chapter 33 You Repent of My Lord!

Ayanokouji did not show any surprise.

As a member of a political family, he knew very well what someone like Mr. Rosser meant.

Not to mention the Toyokawa zaibatsu, even giant zaibatsu like the Shijo Suzuki, which has businesses all over the world, would treat them with courtesy.

But at this level, surely they must be asking for something?

"Alright, get off the bus."

With a casual remark, Rother activated the magical runes inscribed within his body.

Then the two noticed that Professor Rosser's demeanor changed the moment he got out of the car.

With his simple black hair tied into a single strand with a ribbon and hanging down his back, his handsome and delicate face, deep and indifferent eyes, and calm and composed demeanor made him seem to become the center of the world in an instant, radiating a powerful presence.

Even though he was just standing there, he exuded an undeniable sense of oppression.

Is this the real Mr. Rosser?

The same thought flashed through their minds at the same time.

After that, even Hachiman tried his best to straighten his back and widen his eyes, afraid of embarrassing Rosser.

.......

not long ago.

"Does it really have to be this grand, Dingzhi?"

Toyokawa Residence.

The elderly man in a kimono, leaning on a cane, said calmly, "He's just an Onmyoji."

With his white hair but ramrod straight back, Toyokawa Sadaharu (Shoko's grandfather) said in a deep voice, "Haven't you heard the news from the Shinomiya family? This isn't a game with you, Kosuke."

"what news?"

The elderly woman in the kimono gave a mocking smile: "That rumor of a curse? When did you start believing in such things?"

"Times have changed."

Toyokawa Sadaharu took a deep breath and stared at him: "Don't tell me you haven't noticed the changes in the past few years."

"Humph~"

The elderly woman in the kimono sneered, "You will bring shame upon the Toyokawa family!"

"I am the head of the family, Kosuke!"

Toyokawa Sadaharu warned him.

Even though Toyokawa Shoko left, he was still the one who spoke in the Toyokawa family.

"You'll regret this, Dingzhi."

The elderly woman in the kimono snorted coldly and slammed the door shut as she left.

However, Toyokawa Sadaharu was too lazy to pay him any attention.

He knew very well that the other party might know even more than he did.

But it is precisely because they understand this that they want to sabotage things.

His wife, Toyokawa Shoko, belonged to just one of the many factions within the Toyokawa Zaibatsu.

Other factions were equally dissatisfied with him, a son-in-law who had an affair with the housekeeper and fathered an illegitimate daughter, and who controlled the Toyokawa family.

(It has been officially stated that Lao Deng and Zhong Deng were looked down upon by various factions because of their status as adopted sons-in-law.)

After Toyokawa Shoko's father exposed this, he set a trap and swindled his faction out of 168 billion yen.

Although it is a conglomerate with assets of nearly 10 trillion yen, nearly 20 billion yen in cash is not something that can be easily accepted.

Moreover, real estate is the core asset of his faction.

(Xiangzi's father was scammed in the real estate market.)

But compared to their faction's seven real estate projects in Nerima Ward, this 168 billion yen is nothing.

Only six months after that bizarre urban legend appeared, their seven real estate projects experienced a sharp drop in prices, resulting in direct losses of over 200 billion yuan, with estimated losses exceeding 440 billion yuan.

Such a terrible loss is a heavy blow to the entire Toyokawa family, let alone their faction.
