Of course, he didn't care about weapons or humans at all.

What truly concerned him were the other True Ancestors.

He would win in a one-on-one fight against any True Ancestor.

He was confident he could draw even in a one-on-two situation.

Even he couldn't handle a one-on-three situation.

Moreover, the true ancestors of this world are truly unkillable; even he cannot kill them.

Moreover, he is willing to play within the rules if possible; flipping the table is not in his nature.

"Huh, is someone here?"

"This time of day should be the time for men to take a bath, right?"

"Grandma, are there any other men here?"

Just as Makoto Haramura was thinking to himself, a sound suddenly came from the changing room in front.

A slightly immature boy's voice, not yet having gone through puberty.

"This voice... it sounds somewhat familiar."

Makoto Haramura woke up instantly, savoring the continuous sounds, a sense of familiarity always lingering in his mind.

He felt like he had just heard that voice recently, but it didn't seem that important, so he couldn't remember it at all.

As the sliding door slowly opened, the figure that emerged from the misty white fog gradually came into Haramura Makoto's view.

It was a man who looked to be about a junior high school student.

He was shirtless and naked from the waist down, wearing only underwear and a clean towel draped over his shoulders.

His facial expression looked a little down, not the reliable type, but rather a little silly.

Of course, compared to all of these, what's most eye-catching is probably his full head of silver hair.

"Xiaogu City?"

Of course, memories can't be completely forgotten. When the real person stood in front of him, Makoto Haramura still remembered.

Does this person know me?

At this moment, Xiao Gucheng also felt a little confused. Looking at the man with short brown hair in front of him who was smiling at him, his memories began to resurface.

The next second, his expression suddenly changed.

With lightning speed, he performed a sliding meditation, kneeling on both knees and raising both hands above his head.

"Please, save Nagisa."

……

"Please, save Nagisa."

Makoto Haramura looked at the little boy, who was actually about the same age as his body, with a strange expression.

How should I describe it?

You're enjoying a relaxing soak in a hot spring when a little boy you've only met once suddenly begs you to save his sister in the most classic taxi-like manner.

"Hmm, I remember it was that little girl who was possessed by the Primal One back then."

"In short, come in first and tell me the details."

Upon hearing this, Akatsuki immediately stood up, completely disregarding his already reddened knees, untied the towel wrapped around his waist, and walked directly down into the hot spring, standing opposite Haramura Makoto.

This happened in just a few days.

Both Makoto Haramura and Kojo Akatsuki vividly remember the situation at the time and could not possibly forget it.

and so……

"Your sister is starting to have health problems, just like I said."

Makoto Haramura had already anticipated this.

The original soul is not something that can be easily contained, even though Akatsuki Nagisa is considered one of the highest-ranking mediums.

However, the original, violent soul must have caused some damage to Akatsuki Nagisa's soul.

Damage to the soul will eventually manifest in the body.

Therefore, adhering to the principle of after-sales guarantee and also because he couldn't bear to see such a little girl suffer so much pain, Makoto Haramura extended an invitation to Akatsuki's family.

As a result, Xiao's family didn't seem to go to Itogami Island, and he forgot about it.

To be frank, this matter had nothing to do with him in the first place.

Why should he bear the responsibility for what he did in the first place? The fact that he could say such things already shows that he has done more than enough.

It's impossible that he wasn't interested in treating that little girl.

As expected, problems have arisen.

"Yes... Your Majesty the Fourth True Ancestor."

Xiao Gucheng thought for a moment, realizing he didn't know the title of the important figure in front of him, only vaguely remembering that this person was the Fourth True Ancestor.

“Nagisa became very weak after returning from Gozo Island.”

"I am awake for very short periods of time each day. I often feel sleepy again soon after waking up."

“Both my mother and grandmother had Nagisa examined.”

"What is certain is that Nagisa's soul has been damaged, but there is absolutely no way to treat it."

Xiaogucheng appeared very frustrated.

In a family where everyone is a psychic or other superpowered individual, he, an ordinary person, is the most powerless one. So when he sees his sister suffering such pain and still having to force a smile and show concern for him, all that remains in his heart is bitterness.

"dawn……"

While focusing on Akatsuki Nagisa, Makoto Haramura started to ponder the name, and gradually he began to understand its meaning.

"Was your grandmother the priestess of this shrine?"

Xiao Gucheng nodded vigorously, a look of understanding appearing on his face.

"You were invited by my grandmother to treat Nagisa?"

In Xiaogucheng's eyes, the man in front of him was terrifying. If it weren't for his sister's problem, he probably wouldn't have had the courage to appear in this pool.

Why would a man like that come to this godforsaken old shrine, where the only decent thing is the hot springs, if he has nothing else to do?

The only possibility is that this man was invited.

That good-for-nothing, lecherous father of mine, who was just kicked out by my mother, could never be like that.

He hadn't forgotten how his father trembled in fear in front of this man.

My own mother is just a tech geek; she doesn't have that wide network of connections.

The only possible reason is my own grandmother, who is rigid, old-fashioned, but sometimes mysterious.

"It's not wrong to say that I was invited by your grandmother."

Although it was said that he requested it, it was indeed the Lion King Organization that was responsible for the reception, so it is certainly not wrong to say that.

"However, my purpose in coming here is not to cure your sister."

"Besides, I already said it last time, your sister's matter won't be resolved overnight."

"Soul-related issues require slow and gentle nurturing."

"I'm very busy, I don't have time to waste here with you guys."

Makoto Haramura yawned and said coldly to Kojou Akatsuki.

He is compassionate and doesn't mind doing good deeds sometimes, but only if it doesn't affect his own well-being.

"I know."

"Mom and Dad have divorced, and our family is preparing to go to Itogami Island to live and treat Nagisa."

"I just hope to get your contact information so that you can help treat Nagisa when we get to Itogami Island."

Upon hearing Haramura Makoto's rejection, Akatsuki Kojou was not disappointed at all. Instead, his eyes lit up, and he said what he had already prepared.

The whole thing started because of his irresponsible father.

He secretly took Nagisa to such a dangerous place, causing her such suffering, and upon returning, he had no way to resolve the situation, only able to watch Nagisa grow weaker day by day.

It was precisely because of this incident that the mother, who was already in a cold war with her lecherous father, divorced him.

As for the fact that their family chose to go to Itogami Island for treatment, that was purely coincidental.

Regardless, the level of development of the magic industry on Itogami Island is truly the best in Japan.

To treat his younger sister, he needs more advanced and better medical methods.

Therefore, his mother directly applied to the company for residency and a career change on Itogami Island.

As for what happened just now, it was purely because Akatsuki Kojo saw Haramura Makoto and remembered what Haramura Makoto had said to them on Gozo Island. It was just a desperate attempt by a brother who loves his sister.

"Oh, if that's the case, then it's fine."

In that case, Makoto Haramura readily agreed.

No matter what, this is something he promised, and promises should be kept.

"How about this, is your sister here? Let me check on her first."

Chapter 245 Xiao Family's Request

"He's the big brother from Gozo Island!"

Wearing a small-sized shrine maiden outfit, the pure and lovely-looking girl sat on the tatami mat, rubbing her sleepy eyes, and exclaimed with a mixture of surprise and joy.

When Akina was on Gozo Island, she was in a coma most of the time.

Therefore, when Haramura Makoto unleashed his full power and killed the dead emperor, Akina Gisa did not witness it. Her impression of Haramura Makoto was still that he was gentle and kind to her when he took them to the hotel to rest.

"Nagisa, it's been a long time."

Sitting on the tatami mats, Makoto Haramura also greeted Nagisa Akatsuki with a smile.

"It hasn't been that long, has it? We just met a few days ago."

Akinagi pouted her little lips playfully.

"Haha, you're right. But it might also be because Nagisa is just too cute. Even though I haven't seen her for only a few days, it feels like we haven't seen each other for a long time."

As he spoke, Makoto Haramura reached out his large hand and rubbed Nagisa Akatsuki's head hard a few times.

"Cute? Hehehehehe..."

As her head was being rubbed, Akinagi immediately flashed a sweet and innocent smile.

"That's right, Nagisa is the cutest. Mom loves Nagisa the most."

Just as Akinagi was feeling dizzy from being rubbed by Makoto Haramura, a woman wearing a white coat, with a stunning appearance and figure, pushed open the sliding door of the Japanese-style room. With her messy hair sticking up at the edges, she came directly to Akinagi's side and pulled her into her magnificent embrace.

"No, Fukamori-chan, it's so stuffy like this."

"I can't breathe."

For Akatsuki Nagisa, being embraced by so many men would be considered an excellent reward is nothing but an unbearable pain.

She's now being relentlessly bombarded with her mother's face wash and is almost suffocating.

"Cough cough cough..."

An old, dry cough sounded.

Akatsuki and Akatsuki Nagisa turned their heads at the same time, looking at the serious expression on the old shrine maiden's face.

"grandmother--!"

Xiao Nagisa called out somewhat embarrassedly, then propped herself up with her two small hands and pushed her mother away forcefully.

"An antique, a rigid old woman."

Akatsuki gave Akatsuki Hisano a cold look, then released his daughter and sat back in his original seat.
