Chapter 770 - 770
Eiji was very enthusiastic, quickly bringing Edelweiss to a photo studio."Come on, change poses again! Yes, yes, just like that, bend your waist a bit more! Don't cover your chest!"
Holding the student handbook, Eiji happily took photos.
"This is too..."
Edelweiss blushed shyly.
This pose very directly exposed her cleavage.
If only she hadn't agreed to this bastard's request—he kept making her strike strange poses!
"When you wear armor, isn't it even more revealing than this?"
"That's different!"
Edelweiss shouted in shame and anger.
That was combat attire, while this was a maid outfit with twin tails—the mindset was completely different!
But words spoken were like water spilled; for the sake of pride, she couldn't take them back. She could only silently pray for this torturous time to pass quickly.
"Put this on!"
Eiji tossed two more items over.
"This is..."
Seeing the furry objects clearly, Edelweiss's face darkened.
A cat ear set!
"Hurry up, hurry up!"
Eiji urged with an expectant look.
"I want to go back..."
With a look of utter despair, Edelweiss put on the cat ears and tail, and under Eiji's guidance, struck a very stiff cat paw pose.
"Hmm..."
Eiji looked through the dozens of new photos in the student handbook, taken from various angles, but he felt something was still missing.
"One last pose!"
Edelweiss perked up—it was almost over.
"Make peace signs with both hands above your head!"
Edelweiss complied, feeling it was strange. What kind of pose was this?
"Roll your eyes!"
Edelweiss froze for a moment. Was this some new trendy pose? How could rolling your eyes look good?
Though it was very unbecoming, to get it over with quickly, she did as told.
"Blush, open your mouth, drool..."
"Clang!"
Edelweiss drew her sword with a murderous aura, the sinister blade pointing straight at his head.
"Stop, stop! I won't take it, I won't take any more!"
Eiji quickly raised his hands in surrender.
"Delete the eye-rolling photo from just now too!"
"Okay, okay!"
Eiji deleted the eye-rolling photo in front of her.
Only then did Edelweiss relax.
"If I find out you have ill intentions again, I'll gouge out your eyes!"
"Sorry, I was wrong!"
But I'll dare to do it again next time!
Eiji shouted triumphantly in his heart.
Timid in words, bold in heart.
"By the way, Little Edel, you're quite knowledgeable!"
Eiji looked at her with a meaningful expression.
"Not as much as you."
Edelweiss shot him a chilly glare.
Then she removed the cat ear set and went into the changing room to change out of the outfit.
Being nearly forty, she should have been worldly-wise by now, so knowing a little was normal.
After leaving the photo studio.
"Such great kindness, I have no way to repay it."
"I didn't expect you to repay me either..."
"I can only offer myself to you!"
"Whoosh!"
Edelweiss fled in panic, quickly disappearing from sight.
"Heh, do you think you can escape?"
Eiji laughed.
You can run, but you can't hide.
Sooner or later, he would have to make a trip to the Sword Peak.
When that time comes, let's see where you can run!
...
A few days later.
Eiji arrived at the headquarters of the Kidokuhara Consortium.
Upon receiving the news, the head of the Kidehara family immediately came out to welcome him, ushering him into the household with utmost respect.
They had no choice but to be deferential.
As time passed, Eiji's title of Sword God had become known worldwide. The entire Alliance was building momentum for him, with the whole world's attention focused on him. Even the Alliance headquarters was currying favor with him.
His status was so exalted that even the Prime Minister would treat him with reverence, fearing that a single outburst of anger might turn him into another Twin-Wings.
"Head of the Kidehara family, I've come here today with a presumptuous request."
Eiji glanced at the wealthy lady Kanata, who was standing behind the family head.
The two exchanged a smile, and the wealthy lady's face was filled with delight.
Seeing their undisguised affectionate glances, the head of the Kidehara family immediately understood the situation.
"Please, go ahead."
"I'd like to ask you to cancel Kanata's engagement. This is compensation."
Eiji handed over a document.
The head of the Kidehara family had been considering whether to agree directly or more tactfully, but upon seeing the document, his eyes fixated on it completely.
It was the formula for the potion Eiji had obtained from Kiriko the day before. The experiments had finally succeeded, and the document detailed which ingredients could be substituted and the effects of the finished product.
While a potion that healed injuries was convenient, it wasn't enough to sway an international conglomerate like the Kidehara Group.
But the potion that restored magical power left the head of the Kidehara family deeply shaken.
Unparalleled in the world!
Behind this formula lay immense profits!
"Mr. Nangou, rest assured, I know exactly how to handle this!"
The head of the Kidehara family took a deep breath, his face beaming with a smile.
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Not at all, not at all! The family is hosting a banquet tonight. Why not stay, Mr. Nangou? I'll have my daughter keep you company!"
"Hahaha, how could I possibly impose?"
Even as he said this, Eiji was already smiling and holding the wealthy lady Kanata's hand.
Startled at first, the wealthy lady saw her parents looking at Eiji with the affectionate expressions of in-laws admiring their future son-in-law and relaxed, shyly wrapping her arms around Eiji's waist in return.
The family head and his wife looked at Eiji, growing fonder of him the more they saw him.
This son-in-law was far superior to any heir of a Western European conglomerate!
"Here, this is a surprise for you!"
After the meeting concluded, at Eiji's insistence, the two went to the wealthy lady Kanata's room.
Eiji pulled out an exquisitely packaged box from his suitcase and handed it to the wealthy lady Kanata.
"Another surprise?"
"The earlier one was a big surprise, this is a small one! Open it and see!"
The wealthy lady Kanata did as she was told and opened the box.
Then she froze completely.
Inside was a painting, one that had been completed just a few days earlier, bearing the personal signature of "Mario Rosso."
"This… this is…!"
"A few days ago, I met with Mario Rosso and, knowing you're a fan, asked her for an original painting!"
"How could it be so easy to get something like this? This painting would cost at least a billion dollars to buy!"
"It's nothing, just a drop in the bucket. You know how capable your man is now!"
Eiji patted his chest, brimming with confidence.
In truth,
Mario Rosso was none other than his little wife, Sara.
Asking one wife for a gift to give to another wife—it was a foolproof plan!
The wealthy lady Kanata was so overwhelmed with excitement that she threw herself into Eiji's arms and gave him a passionate French kiss.
Eiji took the opportunity to push her down onto the bed.
He spent the next two days in intimate closeness with the wealthy lady Kanata.
"Oh? So fast this time?"
One morning, Eiji was surprised to discover two additional lines of text on the pitch-black gate.
