Chapter 329 Cold Drinks and Tax Evasion Gang
"My name is Kurogiri Mikiya, and I'm in the same class as you."
The words Ryougi Shiki says to the boy seem somewhat like the way she's dealing with a younger brother or sister who innocently says they'll marry him when they grow up, but the girl's unfamiliarity with herself is truly heartbreaking.
But now, I guess I've gotten to know Ryougi-kun, right?!
Kurogiri Miya took a deep breath and, with an almost self-deceptive spirit, tried to comfort himself.
"It's getting late, I have to go back now, so I won't disturb Ryougi and little Broly any longer."
Kurogiri Mikiya politely said this and then left the library.
"A strange person."
Ryougi Shiki watched the boy's departing figure and muttered a comment.
Her outward personality is influenced by the root of her inner personality.
If they hadn't encountered an even more peculiar Saiyan, Root might have developed some interest in Kokutou Mikiya, an individual who was so ordinary as to be almost unbelievable.
but now……
"I also have sea snails, scallops, and seaweed soup made from sea bream."
Seeing that the outsiders had left, Broly began feeding the kimono-clad girl next to him, laying out plates of small dishes, about a third the size of Fujimura Taiga's bento box.
Ryougi Shiki stared at the food in front of her, remained silent for a moment, and then asked, "So, you want me to eat this stuff here in the library for you to see?"
"No, it's not that. It's just that now that we've finished eating, I can clean up the dishes. But if you're not hungry yet, you can take the food home to eat."
"How am I supposed to carry all this food back?"
"I can take them with me and go home with you."
Seeing the boy's serious expression, Ryougi Shiki rubbed her temples.
"My family is a vicious and ruthless underworld family."
She threatened the boy.
"What a coincidence, Fujimura-neechan's family is the same, and I'm currently staying at her house. The meals are made by her cook, and her cooking skills are excellent."
The boy's unfazed response startled Ryougi Shiki, and a hint of annoyance appeared on the girl's face.
If I bring this boy home, my family might think I've developed some kind of unusual fetish.
While it's true that it's her own quirk, and Origami is another side of herself, Ryougi Shiki would still like to avoid trouble if possible.
It just so happens that at this time, after returning home, it's actually time for dinner. After thinking for a moment, the girl in the kimono started eating.
"How is it? Is it delicious?"
Broly rested his face on the table, watching Ryougi Shiki taste each dish, and then asked a question.
"Mmm, delicious! The saury is very fresh, and the conch meat is very chewy and springy..."
Ryougi Shiki, to be honest, still had a somewhat indifferent expression on her face, and did not show any signs of being satisfied with the delicious food.
However, Broly didn't care much, because on the Crystal Palace panel, the happiness value of the girl named Ryougi Shiki was already starting to rise.
"What about the sea bream and seaweed soup? The cook told me that this is one of her specialties."
Broly looked at her with some anticipation.
"Sorry, I actually prefer cold drinks to hot soup."
Ryougi Shiki took a sip of the hot soup; it was indeed very delicious, but it wasn't to her liking.
"Okay, I've got it. I'll bring you a cold drink tomorrow."
Broly nodded and then asked again.
"But what kind of cold drink do you want?"
There are techniques to feeding your wife. Feeding her the foods she likes can significantly increase her happiness level.
Upon hearing the boy's question, Ryougi Shiki hesitated for a moment before replying, "I'm fine with any cold drink."
The female personality type doesn't currently have any particular taste preferences; she simply doesn't like drinking liquids that burn her tongue.
"it is good."
Broly nodded and cleared away the plates after the girl in the kimono finished her dinner.
"This time, it really is tomorrow."
Broly waved goodbye to Ryougi Shiki.
"See you tomorrow."
Ryougi Shiki also waved goodbye, watching the boy walk into the corridor bathed in the twilight sunlight, his figure quickly disappearing around the corner.
After saying goodbye to Fujimura Taiga, Broly returned to Fuyuki City.
That evening, right after dinner, Rin Tohsaka and Sakura used water-generating magic to help wash the dishes. Illya watched curiously from the side, when Rin Tohsaka came over.
The girl had already discussed with her father at noon that she would sponsor the research on Aozaki Touko in Kanbuko City, and she even took a good nap in the afternoon.
"What kind of magic trick is this?"
At this moment, full of energy, she looked at the two people sizzling water over a pile of bowls and plates and couldn't help but ask.
"Sister, this is water magic. Broly taught me this."
Sakura replied that washing dishes used to be a chore, but now it's more like a special kind of game.
"This is water magic that Master Aqua taught me, and it can be used normally in this world. Rin, would you like to learn it?"
Broly asked.
"Okay, I'll try to learn too."
Rin Tohsaka was interested in Aqua's magic and readily agreed.
Her talent is similar to Sakura's.
Before long, the number of people splashing water at the sink increased from two to three.
"A very interesting technique; it seems like a great way to hone one's magic manipulation skills..."
After Rin Tohsaka learned and used the water-generating magic, she gave her evaluation based on her experience.
"Ilya, aren't you coming along?"
Then she looked at the doll girl next to her.
"I can't let it go."
Ilya didn't not want to play in the water, but after trying to learn water-generating magic, she found that she couldn't cast the spell at all.
Her doll body lacks magical circuits, so she cannot use magic to create a water-generating magic circle as easily as Sakura and Rin Tohsaka.
Although Ilya has sensed ki, she cannot manipulate it as precisely as Broly, and therefore cannot use water-generating magic by converting ki into magical power like the boy.
Therefore, she could only watch the three people playing in the water with a touch of envy.
"Don't worry, Father has agreed to my sponsorship of that puppeteer. I believe your body will also be able to have magical circuits in the future."
Rin Tohsaka offered a word of comfort.
The three of them used water to create magic to wash the dishes and chopsticks. With the help of the other maids, they quickly finished washing the pots and pans that the Tengcun family needed to wash that night.
"So, sister, what are your plans for coming over tonight?"
Back inside, Sakura looked at Rin Tohsaka, who had brought a small travel backpack, and couldn't help but ask her a question.
"I've decided to come and stay with you temporarily."
Rin Tohsaka stated frankly.
"Huh?"
Ilya was somewhat surprised.
"Don't be so surprised. Although I said this morning that I was just playing with you guys, I'm the kind of person who doesn't want to lose even when I'm playing games, so I came over."
Broly is temporarily staying at the Fujimura family's house. As the saying goes, being close to the water tower gives you an advantage, and Rin Tohsaka doesn't want to lose to her sister and Illya just because they spend less time together.
"So, in that case, Tohsaka-neechan and we are competing on a level playing field!"
Ilya blinked and then said.
"Hey, isn't that a little unfair to Karen-chan?"
Because of Rin Tohsaka, Sakura will also go to the Fuyuki Church. Kallen and Sakura have a good relationship; Sakura is like a little sister to her.
"Sakura, the world is cruel. That guy is so arrogant; this will give him a taste of what a brutal defeat truly is!"
Ilya was still a little angry when she thought about what happened that morning, and in her opinion, that white-haired little nun was doomed to lose.
"Well, Ilya, don't be so petty with a child. If Kallen joins the Crystal Palace later, then she'll be a companion from the same world as us."
"Ha, who wants to be friends with that guy?"
"Okay, even if we don't become teammates, if she finds out this duel was unfair, she definitely won't accept it in the future, right?"
After a pause, Rin Tohsaka asked her younger sister, "Sakura, are you confident you can beat Kallen in a fair competition?"
"have."
Upon hearing this, Sakura nodded confidently.
"Look, even Sakura has this kind of confidence, don't you have any?"
"Waaah..."
Ilya frowned slightly and thought for a moment before relaxing her attitude a little.
"Alright then, fair competition it is."
"Alright, since Ilya-neechan agrees to fair competition, then I'll contact Kallen-chan right away."
Sakura took out her phone and immediately dialed the Fuyuki Church's number.
"Hey, Broly, I've done you such a big favor, aren't you a little happy?"
While Sakura was on the phone, Rin Tohsaka moved closer to the boy, nudged his waist with her elbow, and whispered something.
"Hey, what did you do for me?"
Broly looked at the girl who had come closer with some confusion.
"Broly, you're still a blockhead. Even Sakura is helping out, but you didn't realize it."
Rin Tohsaka covered her forehead, and seeing that the boy still looked somewhat confused, she began to explain.
"Now that Ilya and Sakura have convinced her to accept fair competition, Kallen should also come and stay here temporarily. And the more time you spend together, the easier it will be for you to increase her happiness level, right?"
"Hey, hey, hey, Tohsaka-neechan, I'm still here! Is it really okay for you to tell me that you and Sakura are working together like this?"
"What does it matter? You've already agreed to fair competition, and it's good for Broly too, as he'll get more happiness points."
Despite the fun and commotion, Rin Tohsaka understood the importance of happiness points, and she felt she should consider her little boy's future.
Of course, after you've thought it through, don't keep it to yourself. Be sure to tell him directly so he realizes how good you are to him.
Sure enough, on her Crystal Palace panel, the number of happiness points is now increasing rapidly.
Clearly, winning over a boy and touching his heart can also increase happiness points.
Rin Tohsaka proved her conjecture with her actions, a knowing look spreading across her face.
"Hey, stay at your place? But I still have to take care of my father..."
However, while Rin Tohsaka's theory of accumulating happiness points was successfully verified, her idea of bringing Kallen to the Fujimura family also encountered a problem.
Inside the Fuyuki Church, the white-haired little nun, who had received a call from Sakura and an invitation, looked troubled.
Through the microphone, Sakura explained to her the advantages of spending more time with Broly in gaining the boy's favor.
Karen also wanted to make Ilya suffer, but she had a disabled father to take care of. Although she was sharp-tongued, she was actually a filial daughter.
"It's just a boring competition, and he's just a guy I've known for a few days. Unless I'm crazy, I would never abandon my father to desperately try to please this Broly brother you mentioned, Sakura-neechan, and gain his so-called favor..."
Karen directly declined the invitation from the person on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, Kallen-chan, you have your own difficulties too. However, Ilya-neechan isn't a bad person. My sister and I both hope that you two can get along well."
Just as Sakura was about to hang up the phone, a deep, magnetic male voice rang out: "Wait a minute, Sakura, Karen will be there."
"Huh?"
Sakura was surprised to hear Kirei Kotomine's voice.
"No, Father, you actually eavesdropped on our conversation?"
After her initial surprise, Karen questioned him in a somewhat unfriendly tone.
"I just picked up the phone when it rang; I didn't mean to eavesdrop."
Kirei Kotomine declared his innocence, and then proceeded to say...
"Karen, while other children are able to play and have fun outside, you, at such a young age, have to take on the responsibility of caring for me, your disabled father."
For a long time, I've been the one holding you back, and it's time for that to change.
My daughter, stop worrying about me and bravely pursue your own happiness!
Kirei Kotomine spoke these words with righteous indignation, and just by listening to his words, one would think that he was a good father who cared about his daughter.
But actually, he just wanted to have some fun—his daughter's fun, Broly's fun, his cheap junior sister's fun, and Emiya Kiritsugu's fun with the other party's daughter.
"Sakura, I'm entrusting my daughter Kallen to your care for now."
At Kirei Kotomine's insistence, Karen was forced to decide to temporarily stay at the Fujimura family's residence.
"Bang!"
The phone call was disconnected, and the door to the lounge was quickly pushed open forcefully from the outside.
"My scumbag father, what exactly do you mean?"
Karen stormed in, her face grim.
"My daughter, the most painful thing in my life is that I will have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. My hatred for that magician killer has surpassed everything else."
However, I know that my daughter and I are helpless against him, so the only effective revenge we can hope for is to take it from you.
I know you want to take care of me, but more than being taken care of, I want you to avenge our enemies.
"To steal that guy's daughter's happiness so that my daughter can be happy, that's my revenge plan..."
The moment the door was forcefully pushed open, Kirei Kotomine's expression instantly switched from that of a tax evader to one of pain. He channeled his inner actor, preemptively addressing his daughter who had burst in.
This immediately put the white-haired little nun, who had come in intending to question him about what serious problem he had, into a daze.
"Kallen, can I place my hopes for revenge on you?"
The little white-haired nun sensed something was amiss, but in this serious situation, she couldn't refuse her father's expectations.
"Yes, I will definitely avenge you. Even though you're a scumbag, what can I do? I'm the daughter of your scumbag father."
"Thanks."
Kirei Kotomine hugged his daughter, seemingly moved by her promise, but his face was full of joy where his daughter couldn't see.
[The daughter, instilled with the belief of revenge by her father, will likely have many conflicts with Kiritsugu Emiya's daughter, and the boy who once defeated the King of Heroes will probably have a headache because of her actions...]
The thought that I, who am already disabled, can still cause so much trouble for others fills me with a sense of pleasure.
[Let's open a bottle of red wine to celebrate after our daughter leaves!]
Kirei Kotomine thought to herself.
