Chapter 361

With the matter happening at the training facility in Okutama, it was impossible for them to stay anymore.

Whether it was Touka or Kanata, they reported what had happened in this facility to Kurono.

Kurono’s expression was solemn, and she told them to go back quickly, especially when Renren needed more treatment.

Renren’s body might be okay now since she was treated by Tsukasa, but the mental damage she received was serious. After all, her body was controlled like a doll. Even if her consciousness remained, she could only watch her body being controlled and attacked by her comrades.

While Tsukasa could help her to tend her, what Renren needed the most right now was a quiet and safe environment. When she got all of that, she could slowly recover.

What if she couldn’t recover?

If she can’t recover, then she might as well stop becoming a mage-knight.

This was a dangerous occupation, and they could die anytime. It was risky. If Renren couldn’t recover from this damage, it was better for her to give up.

After they entered the bus to go home, they talked about their findings.

“Ouma Kurogane?” Tsukasa somehow felt he heard this name somewhere.

“He should be the champion of the Little League and U-12 World Tournament in elementary school,” Touka said after a moment of thought. After all, it had been a while, and her memory wasn’t so good to remember such an insignificant figure in her life.

As for who was a significant figure in her life?

It’s Tsukasa, Tsukasa, and Tsukasa, right?

“……”

While Tsukasa wasn’t sure what Touka was thinking, he titled his head and didn’t remember about Ouma, so he just checked the internet and found out who Ouma was.

Even though there was only a little information about Ouma Kurogane, considering how Ouma had disappeared in the past five years, Tsukasa understood who this young man was.

“The firstborn of the Kurogane Household, huh?” Tsukasa thought for a moment before he let out a long sigh. “Still, the Kurogane household is a messed up family.”

Everyone completely agreed with Tsukasa’s words since, with the appearance of Ouma Kurogane, they could tell the family situation of this family was just too messed up.

The second-born son was abandoned and wasn’t acknowledged by his family.

If Ikki, who was the second-born son, didn’t get a free education, lodging, and food from the Hagun Academy, it might be even harder for him to live.

Fortunately, the Hagun Academy was free, but it wouldn’t raise a slacker, so Ikki knew he had to work hard, so he wouldn’t be kicked out and achieve his dream of becoming a mage-knight.

However, Ikki was completely stubborn and wouldn’t stop training so he could become a mage-knight to the point of obsession. Even if his body was wrecked, bleeding, and any others, he wouldn’t stop.

While it was admirable, everyone could see how abnormal it was.

On the other hand, Shizuku also wasn’t much different. After all, she had fallen in love with Ikki, her own older brother, because she was slapped by him.

Could someone fall for someone who slapped him?

Probably.

However, this person must be a masochist.

Partly, it was also because of the family’s education, or else it wouldn’t have happened.

Lastly, Ouma Kurogane.

While there wasn’t much information about him since Ouma had disappeared for the past five years, Tsukasa was sure that Ouma was related to a terrorist organization or something, considering how Ouma was quite close to the man who had attacked them before.

It could be clearly seen that from the three children of the Kurogane household, no one was right on their minds. They were clearly out of normal, and their act was definitely abnormal.

Tsukasa also often heard how fierce the competition in the Kurogane household was and how people from the same family would fight, conspire, and do other things to consolidate their position in the family or the organization, such as the Japan branch of the League of Mage-Knight.

Still, what even messed up was there was a rumor that the Great Hero, Ryouma Kurogane, was even exiled and had to spend his day in the small thatched house.

However, he knew this wasn’t a rumor.

Tsukasa had asked this question jokingly to Ikki before, but unexpectedly, Ikki nodded and told him that Ryouma Kurogane was treated indifferently by the rest of the family.

“……..”

Hearing that fact, Tsukasa was speechless and felt surprised that Ryouma Kurogane didn’t go on a rampage. He also wondered what was on the head of this person since, with a powerful ability, they could do whatever he wanted. Even a small, puny conspiracy could be easily thrown off.

However, when Tsukasa thought about it clearly, he knew this was a matter of normality.

When God gave you something, they would take something from you.

Genma Kurogane might not be stupid, and he also had a power that could give him the nickname of the Great Hero, but he definitely didn’t have a good EQ, which showed how miserable his life was after his golden age ended.

It was surprising that such a family could almost monopolize the Japanese branch of the League of Mage-Knight, but it might be because they were hard on themselves that they could grow so much.

‘What was it again?’ Tsukasa thought for a moment and remembered the most suited words for this situation.

‘Survival of the fittest.’

Tsukasa felt these might be the right words to describe the Kurogane household. There was no warmth in the family, and everything was based on talent, power, and conspiracy. Somehow he felt he was watching a real-life drama or something, and somehow he wouldn’t be surprised if he saw them starting to kill each other.

Tsukasa shook his head and felt everyone had their own family situation.

However, Tsukasa was glad that he wasn’t born in the Kurogane household, especially when he was only D-rank Blazer in the beginning. The talent he was born as a Blazer might not be bad and even better than Ikki, who was only F-rank. However, he would go unnoticed by the people around him.

‘Wait…!’

With his face, it was impossible for him to stay unnoticed, and frankly, being born in the Kurogane household might give him a layer of protection, so no one would try to harm him.

However, somehow he could imagine how he would be married to someone who was rich or powerful, so it could bring more power to the Kurogane household if he was born into that family.

Fortunately, Tsukasa wasn’t born in that family. After all, if he had been born into that family, it would have been impossible for him to meet Kanata, Touka, and even Nene.

‘Nene…’

While their meeting was rough, Nene had become his woman, so it was better to leave the past and anticipate the future.

Everyone was eager to go back since their minds were quite tense from the fight.

If it wasn’t because of Tsukasa’s presence, which made them feel calm, they would be all tense since they were worried about the attacks of the enemies.

Fortunately, they didn’t encounter anything along the way, and they arrived at the Hagun Academy safely.

“We’re back!” Stella stretched her hands high, causing her big breasts to sway up and down.

“…….”

Tsukasa thought about spending his night with Stella tonight since he was worried that she would be alone and couldn’t sleep, considering she was away from her family and no one could be with her when she needed someone by her side.

Tsukasa made up his mind, but who would have thought another news would come, making him dumbfounded.

“Ikki was caught?”

“………”

Everyone looked at each other and was at a loss since they didn’t know what was happening.
