"But what if Ta chews it?" The little girl, her face being pinched, pitifully furrowed her brows and mumbled her reason for doing so.

This was what my sister asked her to do. Why are you blaming her now?

"Is this the tone you use to write a challenge?! It's infuriating, and you still want to talk back."

He kneaded his own even more vigorously.

"Um, excuse me for interrupting, but even putting aside my misunderstanding, could you please explain why you did this? Logically speaking, we shouldn't even know Cai Shu, right?"

Zuoyou scratched his face. Although watching two young girls being affectionate was actually quite amusing, he hadn't forgotten that there were three onlookers hiding behind him. If he didn't understand why he was messing with Qingchu, he'd be mistaken for a lolicon, and that would be the end of him.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know us, we'll get to know you eventually. As long as we know you, that's enough!" The little girl with pigtails, having put down her sister who was completely limp from being squeezed, turned around, arms crossed, and looked up at the boy who was half her size taller.

"So where exactly did I see you guys that you had to make such a formal scene to face me in front of the village?"

Sōyu covered his head; this child was more difficult for him to deal with than any woman or strange being.

Who can blame her when she really is just a child?

"How dare you say that? You pretty boy who bewitched Kaguya-neechan! Because of you, look what Kaguya-neechan, such a cool and confident girl, has become!" The little girl looked like she was going to do justice to God, her small body in her Sakuragi school uniform standing straight, her finger pointing at Saya's nose.

"So, I'm going to challenge you and make Kaguya-neechan turn back into her original form!"

"You know, Kaguya-neechan used to only come to the school to see the two of us, but because of you, you pretty boy, she didn't yell at Wakasayu even once this time. The little girl's expression looked just like someone had taken away her beloved toy."

"Wait a minute, you just said... Kaguya? Hazaki Kaguya?"

Sawa raised a hand, as if to say, "So the reason they know him is because of this guy? Then they should go find the real person, why are they sending him a challenge letter?"

No, what does that "pretty boy" thing mean? It's like he sold his body to distract Kaguya from everything else. There's a limit to making baseless accusations! wihl

Yes, it's Kaguya-neechan! Let's duel! If you're even a man, you wouldn't be afraid of a little kid, would you?

Ignoring her younger sister's attempts to stop her from pulling on her sleeve, the twin-tailed girl pulled a white glove from the pocket of her skirt and slapped it hard at Wakasayu's face.

"No, tell me first, how do you want to challenge me? And are you even ten years old yet?"

Sawa caught the white glove that almost hit his face and sighed silently. This should be considered an undeserved disaster.

Who would have thought that someone who rarely interacts with outsiders could attract such a young girl?

"A duel is a martial arts duel, of course! Don't underestimate me just because I'm young. Let me tell you, I've studied Bajiquan!"

Clenching her little fists and aiming them at Sayu, the girl with twin ponytails actually struck a rather powerful punching stance.

Saya had no interest in playing with kids. It was a misunderstanding after all. Judging from the situation, Kaguya should come out and explain herself; otherwise, dragging him into this is just asking for trouble. Sighing, Saya was about to beckon Kaguya over to see the mess she'd made, but his complete disregard for her clearly angered the little girl. She quickly stepped forward and delivered a perfect side kick to Saya's shin. A dull thud echoed, and Saya looked down at the trembling girl.

"Are you... alright?" The young girl's strength was surprisingly great. If Saya were just an ordinary high school student, he would probably be lying on the ground clutching his leg, crying in pain.

The problem is, Sawa is completely unrelated to ordinary people. So the twin-tailed girl's attack backfired on her – the harder she kicked a steel plate, the greater the feedback she received.

Tears welled up in her light blue eyes, and she looked as if she was about to burst into tears.

But she still forced herself to bite her chin, enduring the pain, and looked at Sōyū with a sorrowful and indignant gaze.

Does this guy have a steel rod inserted into his calf? How can it be so hard?

"I don't need your concern, you pretty boy!"

Squeezing out those words through gritted teeth, the girl was helped up by her younger sister who rushed over from the side.

"Fine, fine, I'll call her over and she can explain to you herself. I'm truly innocent." whl

Seeing this, Sōyū could only shake his head helplessly and wave to the three people hiding over there.

"You dug this mess yourself, so you'd better clean it up yourself, my dear Kaguya Hatsaki."

Saya complained irritably to Kaguya, who was watching them with a conflicted expression, before crossing his arms and joining the onlookers, including Amakawa Tsubasa and Saya.

"So can you explain? What's going on, Saya-kun?" Amakawa Tsubasa lowered her voice and moved closer to Saya. They were too far away to hear what he was talking about with the two girls.

Saya, who was standing nearby, also came over, her little ears perked up, looking curious.

"These little girls are fighting over a guy, and he's not even eating mine! They're blaming me for stealing their older sister. Tell me, isn't that unfair?" wh

Saya rolled his eyes and pointed to Kaguya Hazaki, who had already stood over to check if the girl's calves were injured.

"Pfft, I thought that Saku's charm had reached the point where even elementary school students of this age couldn't resist it."

After hearing Saya's explanation, Amakawa Tsubasa quickly realized what was going on. She couldn't help but smile, covering her mouth and looking at Saya with a playful gaze.

"Forget it, alright. Pedophilia is a death sentence. I, Sayu, haven't reached that point yet."

Sawa ignored her mockery and could only look at the two girls with a troubled expression.

However, there was one thing he was still very curious about: he felt that the two girls looked somewhat familiar. He would have to ask Kaguya to come over and introduce them to him later.

And Kaguya actually has a younger sister or something, which is the first time Sawa has found out. Although it's definitely a cousin or something, the fact that she actually lowered herself to go and check on Kaguya's wounds shows that she genuinely loves the two of them.

That temperamental young lady actually has her own loyal fans, the kind of die-hard fans who'd challenge her to a duel at the slightest provocation.

"Then, does that mean that the whole love letter thing was just a misunderstanding?"

Saya touched her chest, and as she finally came to her senses, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"That was clearly a love letter. It was a challenge, you know! And I even got called a gigolo. Don't you think it was a misunderstanding?" wihl

Saya irritably ruffled Saya's hair, who was sitting next to him. Why was she still bringing this up?

"A pretty boy isn't bad, at least it's a compliment for you, Saya-kun, right?" Amakawa Tsubasa's smiling face stiffened slightly when she saw Saya's hand on Saya's head, but she continued teasing him as if she hadn't noticed. So, Saya likes this kind of weak-willed persona, huh? That was a bit unexpected. Just as she was still teasing Saya, Kaguya, who had been scolding the two girls, walked over with them, her face stern.

"They're like my two younger sisters, Rin Tohsaka and Sakura Tohsaka."

First, she pointed to the twin-tailed little girl whose face still showed a defiant expression, and then pointed to the mushroom-headed little girl behind her whose temperament was very similar to Saya's. Kaguya then explained to Saya with a headache-ridden expression.

"And you two, go and apologize to him."

Chapter 170 As Cute as You

"No! Why should I apologize to him? Was I wrong? It's because of this guy that you've become a completely different person, Kaguya-neechan!" Rin Tohsaka pouted, glaring angrily at Saya, as if the man in front of her had just lectured them, not Kaguya. Saya, on the other hand, had no intention of arguing with this slightly more assertive kid. In fact, upon hearing their names, he couldn't help but want to say something.

Why are these two studying here too? And given how young they are, is there some kind of Holy Grail War brewing in Tokyo?

Just thinking about the bunch of gods who appeared in her father's battle made Zuoyou's lips twitch.

However, the thought that the world might not necessarily follow the plot he knew only made Sawa rub his temples. After all, his senior wasn't even a senior yet; maybe their...

"So, Kaguya, you're their older sister, a distant cousin?"

Ignoring the twin-tailed little girl who was still glaring at him, Saya looked towards Kaguya, who was clearly reluctant to face him any longer.

"We're not exactly cousins, but the Hazaki and Tohsaka families have been allies for a long time. So I've been in contact with them since I was little. They're also quite attached to me, their older sister."

Kaguya gently pressed down on the heads of the two girls, a rare tenderness on her face, and said while rubbing their heads.

"Kaguya-neechan is just like our own sister, we're all the same."

The mushroom-haired girl named Tohsaka Sakura tugged at Kaguya's sleeve and whispered something to her in a somewhat weak tone.

"Yes, Kaguya-neechan, you love us the most. That's why we can't let that pretty boy take you away from us!"

Pointing her finger at Saya, Rin Tohsaka still didn't realize her mistake, and spoke to Kaguya with a self-righteous air.

Saya explained helplessly that this was the reason he had been so nervous for so long. He almost thought that someone had actually fallen for him, which was why they sent him this love letter.

"Hmph, I know, this tactic is called playing hard to get, right? It's written in books. Every word a man says is true. You're just pretending to be understanding to make Kaguya feel sorry for you. You scheming bitch." Not understanding Saya's meaning, Rin Tohsaka frowned, her twin tails swaying, her fingers almost poking his nose.

"No, where did you elementary school students learn all this stuff? I can't even give you the person? Please, be reasonable."

Zuoyou clutched his head in anguish. Why was he being labeled a scheming bitch instead of arguing with them?

Yu Chouyi suppressed a smile and patted Zuoyou's shoulder as if to comfort him, but the smile on her lips still betrayed her true thoughts.

"There's no point in reasoning with someone like you. Let's fight, you wicked bastard who seduced Kaguya-neechan!"

Rin Tohsaka said

"Holy crap, that's a forbidden area to attack! Who did you learn these moves from?"

Sōyū couldn't let her hit him like that, so he dodged her attack with a quick movement, bracing her head with one hand and pushing her out of his reach.

"Let me go, you pretty boy! If you're a man, come and fight me fair and square!"

Rin pounded Saya's arm, which was resting on her head, a few times with her small fist. After finding that Saya was completely unmoved, Rin could no longer maintain her fist stance and began to wildly swing her fists at Saya.

"I'm saying, Miss Hanezaki, have you really always thought this way about Ruo? Help me out!"

Sōyū looked helplessly at Kaguya, who was looking at him with the same expression, and said, "The one who tied the knot must untie it. If she doesn't come to explain, this matter will probably never end."

"And you, little kid, you need to behave. Protecting your sister is a good idea, but attacking others is unacceptable." (Turns to the person struggling to hold up a rock, preparing to give him a spanking.)

"Alright, Rin, stop fooling around. Saya-kun... he's kind of my bodyguard, not what you're thinking. The reason I didn't come looking for you was for your safety. If you want, don't overthink it." Having been called out by Saya, Kaguya had no reason to die. She could only call out to Rin, who was still playing around with Saya, and pull her to her side before explaining seriously to her.

"Where did your usual aloofness go, Kaguya-neechan? You're not even yourself anymore, you know that?"

Shin walked over to Kaguya's side with a reluctant expression. In her mind, the perfect image of a young lady should be like Kaguya's in the past, calm and composed in the face of adversity, always maintaining a calm and elegant attitude.

But things changed after Saya arrived. She even saw her idol, who looked like a typical girl, in a cooking class, and what she was making was clearly for Saya.

"Um, it's not what you think. I'm still the same person I always was. As for why things are like this, you'll understand when you grow up." With Saku standing right beside her watching, Kaguya herself didn't know what to say. Any attempt to resolve this would only make things more awkward!

"I warned my sister a long time ago that we shouldn't worry too much about these things, but she just wouldn't listen." Sakura, hiding behind Kaguya, poked Kaguya's slender waist and complained softly. Although she was the younger sister, she saw things much more clearly than Kaguya in this matter.

This is clearly because Kaguya is in love. If we come to bother them at this time, wouldn't that just be adding to their troubles?

"Sakura, you've been bewitched by this pretty boy too? It's all because of him!"

Rin, still somewhat indignant after hearing the explanation, hugged Kaguya's waist and glared at Saya. While it's impossible for someone as simple-minded as her to be completely oblivious, she simply couldn't understand what was so good about Saya that warranted Kaguya sending him a challenge letter. However, aside from his unexpectedly muscular physique, it seemed the only other thing she could tell was that he was a guy who liked to hide behind girls.

"So what does this have to do with me? I'm completely innocent, okay?"

Zuoyou shrugged. There was no way to reason with this kid and girl.

"Rin, you know I don't like explaining myself to people a second time, so please don't be stubborn. Okay?"

Kaguya grabbed Rin's shoulders and stared at her intently for a long time before reverting to her usual tone, speaking to her with a hint of command.

"Alright, since you put it that way, Kaguya-neechan, then I'll let it go this time. But Kaguya-neechan, will you come to my house as a guest later? You haven't played with me and Sakura in a long time."

Rin grabbed Kaguya's arm and acted coquettishly, finally behaving like a sweet little sister next door.

"Okay. I'll definitely go when I have time."

He bent down and touched her twin ponytails before Kaguya softly agreed.
