I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

The two strolled along a winding, tree-lined path.

Surrounded by lush trees, sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows.

A short while later, I saw a person waiting not far from the back entrance of the arena.

The man was in his prime, with a robust physique and wearing a suit, but his face was unusually fierce, making one wonder if he was truly a social elite rather than someone involved in the underworld.

When Kirin Toudou saw him, she couldn't help but call out to him with a hint of fear.

"uncle."

"Why did it take so long? Didn't I tell you to come over here immediately after your duel?"

Toudou Koichiro looked over, but suddenly froze in place.

It turned out that a boy was standing next to Kirin Toudou.

They looked very young, probably students from the neighborhood.

Despite being a college student, his face looked far too young.

Despite being a high school student, he possessed a mature and composed demeanor, like a seasoned traveler who had long seen through the trivialities of life.

He stood there, seemingly not belonging to this world, but rather a fleeting passerby, carrying a sense of detachment from worldly affairs.

"Who is he?"

Koichiro Toudou's gaze shifted back to Kirin Toudou.

Kirin Toudou seemed to have just woken up from a dream. She wanted to say something, but then suddenly remembered that she didn't seem to know the boy's name.

At this moment, Mingxian stepped forward with a smile and said politely, "Uncle, I am..."

He paused slightly, then said, "I am Long Mingxian, and as you can see, I am Qi Lin's new boyfriend. Please feel free to entrust Qi Lin to me!"

Todo Koichiro: "??"

Kirin Toudou: "?"

A gentle breeze rustled through the leaves on the tree-lined path.

what?

The uncle and nephew were both somewhat bewildered.

Mingxian continued, "Although I am a penniless traveler, I will definitely bring happiness to Qilin."

"What?" Toudou Koichiro couldn't help but look at Naruhiro. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized that this boy was quite handsome. He was indeed the kind of boy who could make naive girls fall deeply in love with him.

Were you fooled by that pretty boy?

Toudou Koichiro's face immediately darkened: "No, Kirin doesn't have time to have a boyfriend."

Mingxian laughed and said, "Why? Is it because you're a family member, worried that your niece will be deceived by some random man? Or is it because you don't want to lose such a useful tool as Toudou Kirin?"

Toudou Koichiro wanted to yell at her, but his words suddenly changed to, "Of course we can't lose her power."

Under the power of words, he must answer Mingxian's question.

Koichiro Toudou snorted coldly, looked at Kirin Toudou, and said in a cold voice, "Now is not the time for you to be in love. Don't you want to save your father Seijiro as soon as possible? Hurry up and make things clear with this guy, and stop getting entangled with this kid."

Mingxian looked at Toudou Kirin with great interest.

I wanted to see how the girl would react.

Kirin Toudou took a deep breath, as if she had mustered up her courage, and looked up at Koichiro Toudou. It seemed that her soul had gained a bit more courage, and she would not be defeated by a few words.

Even if memories are lost due to time rewind.

However, the "weight" that had accumulated in his soul during those battles transformed into confidence.

She said, "Please allow me to refuse."

"what?"

Toudou Koichiro doubted that he had heard correctly.

Kirin firmly stated, "I've already promised to help my senior survive, so I have to keep entangled with him... But the whole dating thing is just a joke from my senior."

Kōichirō Totō flew into a rage and sneered, "Ha, hahahahaha! I thought you were going to say something, but it turns out you're the kind of daughter who's easily fooled by a man and then abandoned by her father. Seijiro is truly pitiful to have given birth to a daughter like you!"

Qi Lin said, "Saving my father remains my wish."

"Then listen to me obediently! I have a way to make you win the championship in the 'Star Martial Arts Festival' in three years, no, two more years... Do you have that ability on your own?"

"No, I don't think there's any way."

"Aren't you very clear about this?"

"But I don't think your method will succeed either, Uncle."

"what?!"

“Those who cannot get out on their own will not be able to overcome any obstacles here. Moreover, the senior’s matter is also very important. Father is only trapped in a cage, but the senior’s matter is truly a matter of life and death.”

"He's just a stranger!" Toudou Koichiro couldn't hold back any longer and looked at Narugen. "What kind of spell did you cast on him?!"

Mingxian, who was watching the show: "..."

It's not my business?

Why not just keep arguing with your niece?

These kinds of petty arguments between family members are actually quite interesting.

It's like those shows that help regulate emotions; even though you know they're scripted, you still enjoy watching them.

However, Mingxian also has ways to deal with this kind of bully who preys on the weak.

He raised his fist and punched Toudou Koichiro in the face!

boom!

The middle-aged man, who resembled a gangster, flew out like a shooting star and landed in the distant pool, splashing water as it landed on the ground.

Why waste words on someone like that? Just give them a punch and they'll behave.

"senior!!"

Qi Lin was shocked and quickly grabbed his sleeve: "How could you hit your uncle? For a member of the Star Vein generation to attack an ordinary person is..."

Her voice trembled.

Because the power of the Star Pulse Generation is far beyond that of ordinary people, any casual action could cause irreparable harm to ordinary people.

Therefore, there are explicit regulations in society that the Star Vein Generation is not allowed to attack ordinary people casually, and those who violate this rule will be subject to extremely severe punishment.

Kirin's father, Toudou Seijiro, was imprisoned for this reason.

It was clearly self-defense, but because Toudou Seijiro is a member of the Star Pulse Generation, he was sentenced to a long prison term and is still in jail.

In response, Mingxian simply said, "I am not from the Star Pulse Generation."

"Ugh?"

"Besides, isn't this just a family dispute?"

"what?"

"What's wrong with a boyfriend punching his uncle, who was trying to abuse his niece, in order to protect his girlfriend?"

Mingxian smiled and stepped forward, walking step by step toward Toudou Koichiro.

"I will control my strength. Trust me, I'm a professional in this area."

Kouichirou Toudou struggled to his feet, looking at Naruzuru with terror as he approached, and shouted at Kirin, "Kirin, save me!!"

"Hey you, there's a limit to how useless you can be, isn't there?"

Mingxian was speechless.

It should be noted that Kirin Toudou is only thirteen years old and still a junior high school student. As an adult, she not only maliciously suppressed and belittled the other party's self-confidence, but also smugly regarded the other party as a tool.

Now that he's been beaten, he's even calling for help from his niece.

It feels like it would be beneath me to hit someone like that.

Or should we just throw them into the Otherworld to feed the twisted beings there?

"Could you two please calm down?"

A sweet yet unusually calm voice gently rang out, as clear as a mountain spring and as warm yet distant as the early winter sun.

Every syllable of that voice precisely touched the heartstrings of everyone present, drawing their attention involuntarily.

Guided by the sound, everyone's eyes converged on one point.

She was a girl with dazzling golden hair, like an elf who had stepped out of an ancient painting, or the most dazzling light in the morning, instantly illuminating everything around her.

The girl's blonde hair wasn't silky smooth, but rather curled in a free and romantic way, like the most dazzling galaxy in the night sky.

This unique hairstyle did not diminish her beauty at all; on the contrary, it added a touch of unruliness and liveliness to her, making her unforgettable at first glance.

When it comes to beauty, her very existence is proof enough.

Her tall figure, combined with her perfectly proportioned curves, creates an amazing silhouette, making one marvel at her undeniable stunning beauty.

"It's you! Stop this guy!"

Toudou Koichiro shouted as if he had seen a savior.

The girl is the student council president of this school, and her name is "Claudia Enfield".

Claudia said with a smile, "This person isn't from the Star Pulse Generation, so I can't just attack them directly."

"..."

Toudou Koichiro was speechless.

Claudia continued, "I don't intend to comment on your relationship with Kirin Toudou, but she is now an important brand of our school and an asset of the Integral Corporation."

"From my perspective, I cannot allow anyone to get involved based on personal feelings."

"Whether it's you or this gentleman."

At this point, Claudia looked at Kirin Toudou: "Toudou-kun, what are you thinking?"
