Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

Although he knew nothing and was incompetent, the high-ranking boss naturally lashed out at his subordinates.

Hiroshi Nohara, as the section chief, seems to be a fairly good junior manager.

But in reality, he had to face the inexplicable rage of his idiotic boss on one hand, and manage the emotions of his subordinates on the other.

Honestly, at that moment, Hiroshi Nohara felt that his fist was not far from that idiot's face.

It's probably only a matter of three or four sentences.

But thankfully he held back.

"I really want to quit my job."

"I'm tired of this job."

Hiroshi Nohara downed his beer in one gulp and said helplessly.

But this is impossible.

He needs to work to earn money to support his family, pay off his mortgage, and cover all household expenses.

He also wanted to switch jobs to a better company with better salary and benefits.

But it's always just a thought.

Even though he knew there would be opportunities after changing jobs, he didn't dare to take the risk.

What if something goes wrong?

He has a family; he can't gamble with his family.

Perhaps this is the helplessness of middle-aged men.

"Boss, check out."

After weakly uttering this sentence, Hiroshi Nohara slapped his cheeks hard.

I tried to clear my head.

Although he drank alcohol, he managed to control himself and not get drunk.

Even though I'm in a lot of pain inside, I still have to stay clear-headed and control myself.

Even when drinking alcohol, I dare not drink too much.

It feels like I'm in even more pain now.

Before leaving, Hiroshi Nohara noticed a rather thin-looking boy crouching in a dark corner next to the izakaya.

"Who are you......."

When Hiroshi Nohara returned home, Misae Nohara was about to scold her husband, who reeked of alcohol, when she suddenly noticed that his coat was missing.

Coupled with her drunken appearance, as if she had just finished drinking, Nohara Misae had a slightly bad feeling.

Did this idiot get drunk and get into a fight?

Hiroshi, where are your clothes?

"I lent it to a student on the way back."

Somewhat weary, Hiroshi Nohara placed his briefcase on the cabinet in the entryway and said in a slightly hoarse voice.

After a simple explanation, Nohara Misae understood what had happened.

Basically, on the way back, I encountered a child who seemed to be being bullied.

Seeing that the other person looked pitiful, I lent him my coat.

Then I took the tram back wearing these rather thin clothes.

"You really are something."

"The water's ready, go take a bath."

Misae Nohara gently touched Hiroshi Nohara's slightly cool cheek with her palm, then urged him to take a bath.

Although there was some resentment, deep down I felt more heartache and a touch of joy.

In Japan, a society where interpersonal relationships have become quite cold.

Hiroshi Nohara is one of the few people who still has a relatively kind heart.

Being kind-hearted and willing to lend a helping hand to others should be a good thing.

But in Japan, it's hard to say whether it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Imagine what it would be like if a kind person appeared among a group of indifferent and selfish people.

This has been demonstrated in many anime.

It's nothing more than being bullied and targeted.

but........

"I really got you."

Although she said that, Misae Nohara didn't really mean to blame him.

A hint of helplessness mixed with a doting smile even graced the corners of his mouth.

As a wife, no one wants her husband to be a cold and selfish person.

This is also why Misae Nohara is happy.

My husband is a kind man.

This guy can be kind of adorably silly sometimes.

Watching Hiroshi Nohara's retreating figure, Misae Nohara smiled and shook her head, preparing to wash Hiroshi Nohara's clothes.

I'll also prepare the clothes I'll wear tomorrow morning.

"Really, you can't do that again next time."

"Okay, Misae, I got it."

"Ah, you're back."

"Yes, Shin-chan, Daddy's back."

"Wow!"

"Hey Xiaokui, how are you? Did you listen to Mommy today?"

"Wow~"

"It seems not."

In the darkness, the warm family atmosphere remains unchanged.

But right now in Tokyo, next to the izakaya where Hiroshi Nohara left.

A young man wearing a coat that didn't fit his body had his head down.

A dark red mask was stuck on his face, and two upward-pointing demon horns gave him a sharp look.

The shadows beneath his feet shifted, and the boy looked up.

Its demonic face looked incredibly ferocious.

The shadows beneath my feet surged, and countless scarlet lights shone from the alley behind me.

It looks as if the bats sleeping in the bat cave have been awakened.

But this is clearly not something as simple as a bat.

Chapter 1070 Classic Type of Thug

Early in the morning, at the base in Tokyo, Wu Lei'an, dressed in a black training uniform, followed closely behind Luo Zhen.

A tall and muscular body, a cold face, and a neat buzz cut.

He does look somewhat like a bodyguard.

But in reality, the person walking in front could easily hang him up and beat him with one hand.

Are you going back after this mission?

Luo Zhen, who was walking in front, turned his head slightly to look at Wu Lei'an behind him and asked.

Wu Lei'an's initial purpose in coming here was to learn Qi.

This leads to a higher path and the acquisition of greater power.

Having mastered the power of Qi, he had no reason to stay here.

Although he had only grasped the basics, he already had a very clear plan in mind for how to proceed from there.

I am Wu Lei'an.

He was a child prodigy back then.

In some fighting manga, he'd be a genius protagonist...

No, based on my character design, he might be more like a villain?

"Ah."

"I've been here long enough."

Nodding, Wu Lei'an responded in a deep voice.

For Luo Zhen, it didn't matter where Wu Lei'an was.

His current jurisdiction covers the entirety of Japan.

It doesn't matter if he runs to a place like Gunma.

However, Wu Lei'an himself was very stubborn and wanted to continue staying at the Chiba base.

Perhaps it's because Chiba was the base where Luo Zhen had previously worked?

Well, that's what a fangirl is like.

Don't be fooled by the fact that it seems like most people who follow celebrities online are girls.

Boys can be much more fanatical than girls when they're really into celebrities.

Although Wu Lei'an was not a teenager.

But men, you know.

There are only three states: child, teenager, and middle-aged/elderly.

This stage of adolescence can last for a very long time.

A 15-year-old is a teenager, and a 35-year-old is still a teenager.

"After that, pack your things and I'll take you back."

Nodding, Luo Zhen didn't say anything more.

Since Wu Lei'an has already made up his mind, that's good.

At the Tokyo base, Ryougi Shinobu and El-Melloi II can simply exchange greetings.

It is worth mentioning that El-Melloi II is currently still in the position of acting as the site manager.

It's not that the higher-ups are unwilling to give him the position or don't trust him.

Rather, it was El-Melloi II himself who felt that he would most likely return to his own world in the future to fulfill his mission of revitalizing the El-Melloi family.

After all, the root cause of the family's decline was that he had stolen his teacher's relic back then (as Weber believed).

This position, coveted by many magicians, felt more like a constraint to him.

But since it's your responsibility, you should fulfill it properly.

Therefore, although El-Melloi II received a very high salary, he still lived a relatively poor life.

All the subsidies went to the family...

However, El-Melloi II himself was quite pleased with this.

Anyway, he doesn't need to fight now.

Furthermore, due to the broadened horizons, they have further optimized and improved their own ability system.
