When Yahiko heard Nanako’s promise, his voice softened slightly as he asked, “Nanako, have you eaten your lunch yet?”Nanako replied truthfully, “Eminent Father, I continued training after returning from the stadium so I have not eaten lunch yet.”Yahiko hummed as he said, “That’s good. Since it is also noon now, I think you should just ask Jiro to stay and have lunch with you then. That way, you would have already done your best to serve and entertain him on behalf of your father.”“Ask him to stay for lunch?”Nanako could not help but feel a little reluctant.She had always had a relatively cold personality. When her family was teaching her feminine etiquette, she had always been asked to maintain a sufficient distance from men outside. In addition, Nanako had been obsessed with combat and fighting for many years. Therefore, she did not have much contact with men at all.Aside from her own family members, Nanako had never dined privately with any young men although she was alre
After that, Jiro sighed again with deep annoyance as he said regretfully, “I’ve just arrived at Aurous Hill this morning. I came here directly immediately after completing the immigration procedures. I did not make it in time to go to the stadium to watch your match today, Miss Ito. I heard that you defeated your opponent in just one round today. I feel really regretful that I was not able to watch the match!”Nanako replied, “Mr. Kobayashi, you’re too kind.”“From now on, I’ll definitely be there to cheer for you in every single one of your matches, Miss Ito!”“To be honest, my Kobayashi Pharma sponsored this combat and fighting championship. When the time comes, I will be presenting the trophies to the winners of the championship. I can’t wait and I am already looking forward to the finals, where I will be presenting the champion’s trophy to you, Miss Ito!”Nanako replied humbly, “Mr. Kobayashi, before the competition is over, no one knows for certain who will win the championshi
Nanako did not expect to hear that Jiro’s brother had actually died in Aurous Hill. She felt a little embarrassed and thus, hurriedly said, “Sorry, Mr. Kobayashi. I had accidentally mentioned and reminded you of your painful memory.”Jiro hurriedly waved his hand before he said seriously, “It doesn’t matter. Although this is a very depressing matter, Miss Ito, you are not an outsider to me after all. I can also relieve some of my sadness and grievances by telling you about it too…”In fact, Jiro was not sad at all when he thought about his brother, Ichiro. On the contrary, he was actually very happy.The idea of the eldest son inheriting the family business had always been deeply ingrained in the mind of the Japanese.No matter how big or powerful a family was, the eldest son would always inherit the family business eventually. Even if the eldest son’s ability was not as good as the second son or the other sons’, he would still end up as the head of the family and his more capable
Jiro did not give up. Instead, he continued asking, “Then, why don’t you give it some thoughts now? What kind of man would be able to meet your criteria and standards?”Nanako thought carefully before she said, “First of all, the main criterion is that he would have to be better than me!”“Better than you? In what sense? In his career? Education? Or his achievements?”Nanako replied seriously, “He would have to be better and stronger than me in terms of his combat and fighting skills! I do not want to find a man who would not be able to defeat me in the future.”Jiro coughed awkwardly as he thought to himself, ‘Although Nanako looks like a quiet person, she’s actually a rather competitive person.’It would be fine if she enjoyed combat and fighting and wanted to pursue combat and fighting on her own. However, why would she have to look for a man who is stronger and more capable compared to her when it came to love?After all, he was a physically weak person who lacked strength. W
Aurora smiled shyly before she said obediently, “I got it, Dad. I’ll accompany Master Wade and drink a little with him then.”Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “Aurora, I will have to help you absorb the power of the magical pills after dinner. So, it isn’t very good for you to be drinking now. If you really want to drink with me, then you can just wait to drink with me after you win the championship.” Aurora bit her lower lip and she was felt very unconfident as she said, “Master Wade, to be honest, if I were to compete against Ito Nanako, I am not even 20% confident that I will be able to win…after all, Ito Nanako is really very strong and powerful. She has no rivals at all among those who are of the same age as her.”Charlie smiled before he asked, “Is Ito Nanako really that amazing?”Aurora said, “Ito Nanako had started practicing combat and fighting since she was five years old. Moreover, she had always been training under the top combat and fighting master from Japan.
Charlie nodded as he said, “Okay, you can take the medicine now and I’ll guide you to absorb the medicine quickly!”The magical pill itself was a very good medicine for the treatment of any physical or internal injuries. As it was shrouded in some Reiki, the effect of this medication had been qualitatively sublimated.Middle-aged and elderly people would have a lot of physical conditions in their bodies, and their organs would also have reached a certain degree of regression. Therefore, as soon as they took the magical pill, the effect of the medicine would act directly on these patients to repair their bodies and there was no need to guide them at all.However, since a young person’s body was still strong and since her organs would generally still be at their peak, the powerful magical effects of the pills would not be absorbed into her body if she were to just take the medicine blindly. If a human’s body were to be compared to a sponge, the body of a middle-aged or elderly perso
As Charlie was guiding the absorption of the medicine in Aurora’s body, Charlie deliberately placed some Reiki in Aurora’s body. This was so the Reiki could silently supplement Aurora’s body like the spring rain.The effect of the Reiki was even more powerful than the effect of the magical pill that he had previously concocted himself. It would not only greatly improve Aurora’s physical fitness, but it would also greatly strengthen her muscles, meridians, bones, and her internal organs.Although Aurora had been practicing combat and fighting for many years, she was still an ordinary person after all. For an ordinary person, the power of Reiki was even more powerful than a panacea.Aurora’s physical strength was beyond comparison now.When Charlie told Aurora that everything was done, Aurora let out a long sigh. After that, she hurriedly stood up before she walked over to the sandbag to perform several sets of punching movements.However, since Aurora did now know how much Charlie
Aurora hurriedly said, “Master Wade, you have to come for my match the day after tomorrow!”“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely be there!”***At this moment, at the country’s largest entertainment company, Yorkbel Entertainment Group, located at the central business district of Eastcliff, Yorkbel’s top female artiste, Quinn, was in the Yorkbel Entertainment Group’s studio as she was shooting for the cover of a fashion magazine at this time.This would be the fourth time that she was going to appear on the cover of a fashion magazine. Therefore, it was already commonplace to her.Quinn was inside the studio and she was wearing a black and white contrasting dress which was specifically tailored made for her by Chanel. She looked a little aloof in her glamor and she looked like a strong woman who could only be looked at from a distance, but could not be toyed with.After the photographer took several shots of her in succession, Quinn finally completed her task. At this time, her assistan
