"Dangdang!"

"Beep————————————"

With the same reaction again, Mitsunobu Kushima could feel certain of his earlier guess.

Mayumi Nanagusa, who had been listening to the conversation silently, looked at Mitsunori Kushima with a puzzled expression.

But she quickly dismissed the idea, since if Kushima Mitsunori was Trust Silver, then there was no need to start a new company.

Moreover, given Silver's reclusive nature, it was impossible for him to have revealed his true identity yesterday.

"It seems that we still need to let Grandpa investigate this matter. Relying solely on my own intelligence sources is too much of a strain."

After thinking for a moment, Kushima Mitsunori wrote down the details of the Shiba siblings and his current speculations into his terminal and sent it to his grandfather, Kushima Retsu.

Given the Kushima family's connections in the government and the military, it's estimated that the Shiba siblings' information should already be in his inbox by the time he gets home that evening.

"Lord Guangxuan, you don't seem to be in very good spirits?"

Mayumi Nanakusa finished her work for the day and took a cup of coffee from the coffee machine, placing it on Mitsunori Kushima's desk.

However, Kushima Mitsunori rubbed his slightly stinging eyes and took a sip of the coffee from Nanagusa Mayumi.

It must have been a psychological effect! After drinking the coffee, he did feel that his mental state had improved considerably.

"Thank you, senior!"

"I just used my spare time to finish the work I didn't complete last night."

"Is this about CAD tuning?"

Mayumi Nanagusa pulled out the chair next to Mitsunori Kushima and sat down.

"No, do you remember the spell I used yesterday? I went home last night and improved it. I'm just doing some finishing touches now."

After typing the last character, Mitsunobu Kushima let out a heavy sigh of relief and stretched.

"Is it finished?"

"Yes, it's done."

"What will it look like after it's finished?"

Mayumi Nanakusa asked with great interest, since yesterday when Mitsunori Kushima used that magic, he said it was just a simplified version.

From her perspective, once that spell was completed, it should be a very powerful spell.

"It's quite difficult to describe it just with words. I'll demonstrate it for you next time if I have the chance."

"How malicious of you! You know people are so curious."

Mayumi Nanagusa poked Mitsunobu Kushima's muscular arm with her finger and pouted as she spoke.

"Speaking of which, senior, you were in a hurry to go back last night. How did things go?"

"Because I was afraid of bothering you, I didn't send you any more messages to ask."

Kushima Mitsunori shut down the computer and turned around to face Nanagusa Mayumi.

"Things went quite smoothly, it's just that Kasumi was really rude to you yesterday." Nanagusa Mayumi still felt a little embarrassed when she thought about it.

After all, it was she who asked Kushima Mitsunori for help yesterday, even though she had some ulterior motives of her own, but her younger sister's attitude was so bad.

“I already said I don’t care about that matter, and judging from Kasumi’s appearance, she must really like her senior!” Kushima Mitsunori shook his head and said.

"Yeah, Kasumi has always admired me since she was little, so she always acts like that when there are men around me."

Mayumi Nanagusa frowned slightly. She also felt helpless about this matter. In the past, it was people she wasn't interested in who would do this. Instead of being angry, she would be happy to see Kasumi do this.

But now that the target has changed to Mitsunori Kushima, things are not looking good!

"These two are getting less and less discreet!"

Watanabe Mari, watching the two of them, nudged Ichihara Suzune beside her.

"Isn't that a good thing too!"

Ichihara Suzune replied without looking up.

"Mari, I told you it wasn't like that!" Mayumi Nanagusa naturally heard the two's undisguised discussion and immediately got up from her chair, ready to shut Watanabe Mari up.

Originally, I wanted to shamelessly offer a reward for signing the contract today to see if I could get a better result, even though it flopped.

Seeing my typing speed, I silently shed tears.

I still want to thank everyone for their support.

Chapter Twenty-One: Such a Perfect Appearance

Kushima Mitsunori got home early today because he received a message from Kushima Retsu right after school.

However, what was sent to Hikaru Kushima was not directly information about the Shiba siblings, but rather a request for a video call after school.

Good evening, Guangxuan.

"Grandpa, it's so good that you're in good health."

There weren't many unnecessary formalities between the grandfather and grandson; they simply exchanged a normal greeting.

However, this video call was different from the previous ones, as it was not just the grandfather and grandson; Ken Kuki, who had worked for the Kushima family for many years, also entered the country.

Ken Kuki followed Retsu Kushima when his grandfather was young, and even in his old age, he didn't return to his own family but stayed by his grandfather's side as a butler.

It can be said that all the younger generation of the Kushima family grew up under the watchful eye of Ken Kuki, so the Kushima family has great respect for Ken Kuki.

Both Kuki and Kuzumi are among the eighteen families of the Shibu clan. Unlike the other eighteen families, they did not aim for the position of the tenth Shibu clan.

Instead, they greatly respected Kushima Retsu and voluntarily became a branch family member of the Kushima family.

This is why Ken Kushima has been able to stay with Retsu Kushima.

"Grandpa Kuki, it's been a long time since I last greeted you."

"Greetings, young master!"

After greeting everyone, Kuki Ken used his tablet to upload a file to the large screen.

"This is the information we found about the Shiba siblings, based on the data that Young Master Guangxuan sent over at noon."

"Let me see!"

Kushima Mitsunori opened the document and began to examine it carefully.

Kushima Retsu and Kuki Ken also waited silently. They originally thought it was just Kushima Mitsunori's own curiosity that they wanted to satisfy, but who knew that the results of the investigation would be so shocking.

"call--"

After reading it, Mitsunobu Kushima let out a long sigh, then gave a wry smile.

"To be honest, Grandpa, I also thought that the two of them were perfect adjusters from some family of the Ten Masters Clan."

"But who knew they would turn out to be from the Yotsuba family."

Retsuya Kushima placed his hand on his knee. "Yes! But what are your reasons for believing Miyuki Shiba is a Coordinator, Mitsunobu?"

"appearance!"

"appearance?"

Kuki Ken couldn't help but ask, "What does this mean? How can you say that Shiba Miyuki is a Coordinator just by judging her appearance?"

"Of course, besides me, have either of you grandfathers ever seen a human being with such a perfect appearance?"

"If it were just about being pretty, that would be fine, but to have perfectly symmetrical facial features and such a perfect body proportion is also a problem."

"I can't think of any other reason besides the fact that she's a Coordinator."

Ken Kuki and Retsu Kushima readily accepted this reason, after all, their grandson was a living example.

If it weren't for his own grandson, Kushima Retsu would never have believed that such a perfect human being existed in the world.

"But the Yotsuba family is really a bit of a problem!"

"And it just so happens that the two of them seem to be related to the head of Yotsuba by blood."

There's no way around it; it's no wonder that Kushima Mitsunori said that. Leaving aside Shiba Tatsuya for now, Shiba Miyuki looks remarkably like Yotsuba.

"Those Shiba siblings must be Maya's children! Especially since Shiba Miyuki and Maya looked exactly alike when they were little."

Kushima Retsu said with certainty.

"How is that possible!"

"Those two should just be direct descendants of the Yotsuba family. If they were Yotsuba Maya's children, why would they undergo magical gene modification?"

Kushima Mitsunori immediately retorted that he knew his grandfather had three disciples before him.

One of them is the current head of the Nanakusa family, Nanakusa Hiroichi.

The other two are the two genius sisters of the Yotsuba family, Yotsuba Maya and Yotsuba Shinya.

After all, current Coordinators all have certain lifespan issues, and it's very difficult for them to live past forty. If they have experienced intense battles, their lifespan will be shortened even more drastically. Therefore, current Coordinators are basically the children of the previous generation of Coordinators.

Furthermore, given Maya Yotsuba's magical talent, her child's magical aptitude couldn't possibly be too low. Besides, how could her own flesh and blood possibly accept such an adjustment?

If that's the case, doesn't that mean that Kushima Hikaru's claim that Shiba Miyuki is a Coordinator is wrong?

"Perhaps they have some plans! After all, it's Yotsuba!" Kushima Retsuya said with a sigh.

Four-leaf clover, seven-leaf clover

Currently, the two most powerful families among the Ten Masters are considered the twin pillars of the Japanese magic world.

The Nanakusa family is alright. Their strength comes from the large number of magicians under their command, coupled with the current head of the family's shrewdness and cunning. Therefore, even though they are powerful, they are not too feared by others.

Yotsuba is completely different; their family earned the awe of magicians entirely through their terrifying strength.

Originally, Yotsuba wasn't this terrifying 30 years ago, but something happened back then.

Back then, the YD Cult within the Asia-Pacific Alliance somehow managed to abduct Yotsuba Shinya from the Yotsuba family. However, just as the Ten Masters Clan finally managed to retrieve Yotsuba Shinya from the YD Cult after much effort...
