The all-powerful middle schooler

In the end, he gave up.

Anyway, there's not much need to mention it.

The girls didn't chat in the group for long before running off to engage in intensive training, because they were all holding their breath.

Although it was only a fleeting glimpse, the power displayed by the Heron Palace still made them feel pressured.

Even though they were all supported and promoted, a sense of pride is an indispensable component for becoming strong.

……

"Bang... bang... bang..."

In the deserted park at night, the sound of something colliding could be heard repeatedly.

The silver-haired beauty struck various fighting stances, and with each powerful punch, the surrounding air vibrated.

In a world unseen by ordinary people, she is engaged in a real physical combat with Platinum Star.

As a stand-in, Star Platinum is a perfect sparring partner.

No matter how proficient she is in mastering the power of Ripple, or how much power she unleashes, she doesn't need to worry about hurting her opponent.

Conversely, if you are sparring with your teammates, it is definitely difficult to have a clear understanding of your own strength.

After another round of conscious self-training.

"call……"

The silver-haired beauty was covered in sweat, completely lacking her usual affected elegance, panting heavily, her chest heaving.

"not enough!"

"Not...enough!"

She wiped away the sweat and continued to immerse herself in the story.

The Platinum Star doesn't need any training; as long as her spiritual power increases, her strength will also increase.

However, if she herself is too weak, she will easily become a target. After all, the power of a Stand takes time to be enhanced, and the stronger she is, the stronger the power of the Stand will become.

Sweating more now means bleeding less in the future...

She wasn't secretly trying to kill everyone; she was just following the minister's advice!

Moreover, she believes that others are working hard behind the scenes.

After once again teetering on the brink of collapse, Natsukawa Masuzu strolled back to her apartment.

After going upstairs, she saw a young girl sitting at her door, hugging her legs and looking helpless.

"What's wrong? You look like a stray dog."

Chapter 63: His initial arrogance followed by obsequiousness is laughable.

"Xiao Liang".

Mana Natsukawa looked up, biting her lip, looking pitiful.

If it were any other time, given the girl's personality, she would have definitely retorted directly, but she simply wasn't in the mood for that now.

This point was also keenly noticed by Natsukawa Masaki.

"Let's talk after we come in."

She took out her key, opened the door, and went inside.

Natsukawa Mana hesitated for only a second before bracing herself with her hands on the ground and following him inside.

"Tell me what's going on."

A few minutes later, Natsukawa Masaki placed the brewed black tea on the table.

Mana Natsukawa held the cup in both hands, feeling the warmth emanating from her hands and heart.

"Dad, something happened to him."

"Ok?"

Natsukawa Masaki narrowed his eyes.

Although she didn't have a good impression of that person, he was, after all, her biological father and had raised her.

"He's dead? When is the funeral?"

Sensing the urgency in her sister's words, she maintained her sharp tongue and spoke lightly.

"No, no! Dad is alive and well... but he's practically under house arrest. There are some problems with the Xia Chuan family right now; someone's trying to seize his power and position. I only received news of him this afternoon, and then I..."

Mana Natsukawa was initially flustered, then her voice weakened.

"And then you came running over?"

"Wouldn't it be better to leave this kind of thing to the police?"

The older sister's nonchalant tone chilled the younger sister's heart and ignited her resentment.

"They wouldn't dare get involved in something like this! And Xiao Liang, you don't need to be so harsh! If you hadn't insisted on going against Dad, he wouldn't have stopped giving you the money..."

"Really? You haven't grown up yet. Do you think the conflict between him and me is about these things?"

Natsukawa Masaki shook his head and sighed.

She had thought that the girl would improve after entering high school, but it seemed that as the eldest daughter of the Natsukawa family, staying in an environment like Shuchiin was still too comfortable.

"I don't understand! I just don't understand! Why can't you all speak clearly? Everyone speaks in veiled terms, it's so annoying, so annoying! Whether it's Xiaoliang or Dad, can't you all just give in a little?"

Mana Natsukawa's emotions had reached the point of a volcanic eruption; she roared angrily while tears streamed down her face.

"No."

Natsukawa Masaki's eyes were cold.

She may have appeared strong on the surface but was actually vulnerable inside, and might have been submissive under pressure. But now she is determined to be herself and acts entirely according to her own ideas, without any constraints.

"That's it..."

This answer shattered some kind of illusion that Natsukawa Mana had.

"Well then, I'll take my leave."

As she spoke, she rubbed her tear-filled eyes and turned to leave.

"Where else can you go? You were forced into this situation, weren't you?"

"Where can't I go? I can always go to my older brother. He's a good person, he'll definitely take me in!"

"You may have misunderstood the minister... Never mind, I can't explain it to you, but if you're willing to ask me for help, I can help you."

Natsukawa Masaki's expression changed, then she rubbed her forehead and softened her tone.

"Really? Xiao Liang, would you take me in?"

In that instant, Xia Chuanzhen's sorrow turned to joy, and she reached out and grabbed the other person's hands.

"Why should I take you in? You're not a minister. If you were, I would have agreed."

"You're saying this when it's just the two of us? Xiao Liang, you really are serious..."

"It's just a habit."

"What can Xiao Liang do to help me?"

She noticed an unnatural look on her sister's face and asked with a smile.

"What else can we do but help your good father get through this difficult time?"

“No, Xiao Liang, their power is too strong. Even your father is under their control. The other shareholders probably tacitly agree. According to your father, the person who split up the family may have an existence in the underworld behind him.”

"So what?"

Natsukawa Masaki turned his head to the side, let out a contemptuous sneer, and lightly clenched his fist in front of him, making a 'snap' sound.

"My fists are just as hard!"

"Wait... Xiao Liang, what's wrong?"

To Natsukawa Mana's utter surprise, her seemingly gentle and weak older sister actually possessed such a strong and fierce side.

Moreover, simply clenching your fist can cause an air explosion...

Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?

……

The Natsukawa sisters went out.

"Sister, when did you learn such amazing martial arts? Did you learn it from your older brother?"

Inside the elevator, Natsukawa Mana asked curiously.

“This is not martial arts, this is ‘Ripple Qigong,’ this is ‘spiritual power.’”

Natsukawa Masaki overlooked the latter question.

"But isn't that something from a comic book?"

She knew her sister's preferences, which was why she was able to ask that question.

"You just need to understand something similar."

"Then may I cultivate?"

"No, this is my own ability."

"Eh, Xiao Liang is actually a superpowered person!"

The girl was overjoyed. The thought of having her older sister's help gave her confidence in her future plans.

"Alright, stop chattering away, I'm already annoyed by you."

Just as she was about to ask more, Natsukawa Masuzu waved her hand impatiently.

Then Natsukawa Mana covered her mouth until they arrived at the tram station.

"This isn't the way to the Natsukawa family's house, Ryo."

"I need to see the minister first."

"Hmm? To see the older brother? Why?"

"Because the minister is very interested in this matter."

A while passed.

"Xiao Liang, now that you're a superpowered person, it's not like the members of the Far East Magic Society are also... "

"It's just as you imagine, but even though you know..."

"I know, I know, the mysterious organization hidden in the school, right? I've read a lot of comics, I know this kind of thing."

Natsukawa Masuzu glanced at her out of the corner of her eye and saw her younger sister's slender legs swaying gently in the air. Coupled with her talkativeness along the way, it was enough to show how excited her sister was.

But that's understandable. After learning the relevant information, even she, who wasn't exactly a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), went on a rampage of "Ora Ora Ora!" at her bed for a while...

It was past lunchtime, and the streetlights in the neighborhood were starting to come on.

Mana Natsukawa walked along the path, holding her older sister's hand.

Once a person has someone to rely on, they become much bolder.

Normally, she wouldn't dare to go to such a place.

"arrive."

"Is this your older brother's house? It looks dilapidated."

She looked up at the two-story ordinary residential building.

"If you can't speak, don't speak."

Natsukawa Masaki smiled and went over to ring the doorbell.

"This day has finally come."
