I, the Heir of Heroes

Just like the vernal equinox, there is no sense of oppression or majesty, but the inner fluctuation gently dissolves and neutralizes Jia Luo's blade-like cold temperament.

Old Man Jiudao didn't really want to mention them at this time.

"In this society, false and true is the real face. You can be said to be lucky or unlucky if you have a direct vision of the essence. However, as long as you live here, you need to endure and admit it. Don't pay too much attention to it. Others, insist on your own wishes - you did a good job this time..."

"Yes, I remember."

Only here, Jia Luo will accept the teaching seriously like a student.He who was once self-confident, learned and experienced little by little in this way, and built his own personality.

Only at this time will Jiu Dao Lie feel the majesty of being an elder, and will show a slight smile.

"Remember... that's fine too"

Never accepting everything he taught, Jiudao Lie admired Galo's attitude of verifying and learning all the time.

Even without that god-like power, he thought that Jia Luo would still stand at the highest point in this world, overlooking all living beings.

It's just that Jiu Dao doesn't support Jia Luo's character that he rarely pursues.

Going back to the question just now, from the old man's point of view, those branch families are just a group of ants that can be ignored for Jia Luo, but it will be annoying to show up from time to time.

"After all, they are the same power. Although the scale is not at the same level, they will not give up easily after all."

"Oh~ With the holy relic as the reason, there is no way to prevaricate it?"

"Well, now I have begun to doubt the existence of your special power, presumably they are already preparing to 'try'!"

"They have already acted..."

Recalling the hands and feet that had been touched in various parts of his residence, Jia Luo could no longer show a peaceful expression.

"Really...then don't be merciful, I will help you deal with it afterwards, their extra claws should be chopped off."

The gentle smile that was originally talking with Jia Luo has long since disappeared. When it comes to the uneasy separation between the two, Jiu Dao's face shows the cruelty of the last century who has experienced many battles and looked down on the enemy.

"Let's not talk about that, don't worry about me with your strength."

It seemed that the topic was a bit chilling, Jiu Dao smiled slowly, and then asked about other things.

"Nakusa Mayumi is a very good girl, isn't she..."

The corners of the eyes jumped inexplicably

"Ah."

"Hehe, it's really rare! Galo."

Seeing the slightly dangerous eyes of the young man in front of him, the old man Jiu Dao didn't care at all, instead he laughed out loud.

"This is youth~ It's really good, then at the price of one of your oaths..."

Abruptly, the old man just used an oath like this

"From now on, you will be the acting head of the Jiudao family - you don't need to bear any responsibility, you just need to be a representative."

Without the looseness of laughing just now, Jia Luo's eyes were extremely sharp now - he understood why the old man did this.

"Master, are you serious?"

"Of course. But don't get me wrong, it's not for you, but now Guangxuan's body and ability can't take on this responsibility, can't be a role model, so I hope you can replace him, and the time is up to when he grows up. "

Should it be said—duplicity?

With this layer of identity, there will be no unnecessary obstacles between Jia Luo and Mayumi!

Sighing helplessly, Jia Luo didn't explain and was ready to admit it.

However, it didn't end—

What Jiu Dao said next made Jia Luo's eyes narrow slightly.

"Next is the last oath—I hope you can investigate and monitor your junior, Shiba Tatsuya."

Did not directly agree to——

"reason."

seems to be remembering something

"I once had a student named Shiba Midnight, she belonged to Yotsuba... Yotsuba is too strong now, and their concept of treating magicians as weapons is too cruel. I am worried that their existence will destroy the current balance. This country I once endured your attack, and now I don’t have the extra energy to bear the devastation of the flames of war.”

The old man answered Jia Luo's doubts in a tired tone.

What will happen to this country has no meaning to Jia Luo. In other words, if this country hurts the people he cherishes, so what if it is destroyed—just like a few years ago.

However, since it was Jia Luo's own vow, he would not break it.

"What do I need to do?"

Nine Island's request is not specific.

"I hope you can use [Masquerade Procession] as a common magic in front of the public in the next Nine Schools Battle and in your future life..."

very simple

Gallo nodded in agreement.

"Also, regarding Shiba Tatsuya - I hope you can confirm whether he is the strongest magic weapon created by this generation of the Yotsuba family. If so... I hope you can destroy him!"
