Chapter 63

As the days went by, Rokudo Mukuro and Sawada Tsunayoshi met every few days, and their relationship gradually became more familiar.

Early that morning, Rokudo Mukuro received chocolates from Chrome.

"Oh my, is this for me?"

Chrome nodded shyly. "Today is White Day. Mukuro-sama, Chisuke, and Inu are the most important people to me, so I'm giving you chocolates."

Chigusa pushed up her glasses. "Thank you, Chrome."

The dog remained as awkward as ever. He turned his head and said in a harsh voice, "Don't think you can bribe me with just a box of chocolates!"

But he carefully put away the beautifully packaged chocolates in his hand.

Rokudo Mukuro also showed a gentle smile. "Thank you, Chrome. I like it very much."

Chrome lowered her eyes, her face flushed. "I'm glad you like them. I bought all of these. After school today, I'll go to the Sawada house with Kyoko and Koharu to learn how to make chocolates by hand. I'll give them to you when they're done."

Rokudo Mukuro was taken aback. Learn to make chocolate by hand? Learn from whom? He remembered that Bianchi was at Sawada Tsunayoshi's house, so he couldn't be learning from her, could he?

The poisonous dish was enough to poison Sawada Tsunayoshi and Gokudera Hayato; he had no intention of trying it.

However, upon further reflection, he felt that his own Chrome would surely know what was good for her and would not allow any poisonous food to appear in front of him.

"I'm really looking forward to it!"

He then turned to look at Chigusa and Inu and smiled, "White Valentine's Day is a day to show off your charm. Chigusa and Inu, you should receive a lot of chocolates, right?"

Qian Zhongshu is aloof and refined, while Quan is the kind of boy who looks roguishly handsome. No matter how you look at it, the two of them would be very popular at school.

Chrome lowered her head, remaining silent. How could she tell her Mukuro-sama that Chigusa and Inu had practically become the leaders of a delinquent group at school, and no girl dared to approach them?

The chocolates she sent out might very well be the only ones they received that day.

The dog is completely oblivious to its own limitations: "If I receive a lot of chocolate today, I will bring it all back to you."

He had no interest in sweets like chocolate; he only liked eating meat. He also knew that Lord Mukuro had a particular fondness for chocolate.

Chizuru is very clear about his and his dog's current situation at school. He is now thinking about whether he should buy more chocolates to bring back before he comes back.

...

In the afternoon, Rokudo Mukuro took Yun-Dou for a walk in the park. The chubby little bird Yun-Dou wasn't very close to Rokudo Mukuro, and at home she preferred to stick with Chrome.

Rokudo Mukuro responded: "Kufufu~ You don't like me? I don't even look at you! How can a little fat bird be as handsome as my Mukuro Owl? In a few days, I'll return you to that little sparrow so you two can live happily ever after."

But thanks to Chrome's persistent teaching, Yun Dou can now clearly call out "Master Mukuro." This makes Rokudo Mukuro very happy.

Perhaps because of Valentine's Day, the park was filled with couples exchanging chocolates, their eyes locked in a tender, almost tangible way, whispering sweet nothings... all of this made every corner of the park seem to be filled with pink bubbles.

More importantly, the majority of these people were students.

Rokudo Mukuro clicked his tongue, utterly unable to comprehend what was so captivating about love that made these young people put on love dramas in the park.

It's really immoral to show affection in public.

A mischievous glint flashed in his eyes, and indigo mist shimmered at his fingertips. Before long, the young couples in the park were all in trouble.

"Oh! Mom, what brings you here? No, no, I'm not in a relationship."

"Uncle, I didn't covet your daughter, please spare me!"

"Oh my god, that handsome guy over there is so good-looking. Mr./Ms. XX, I'm so sorry, we're not a good match."

"What? You're most afraid of dogs? If you're afraid of dogs, then why are you hiding behind me? Goodbye to scumbags who hide behind women when danger is a sign of trouble!"

"..."

The originally sweet and affectionate atmosphere suddenly turned into a breakup drama. Rokudo Mukuro sat on a park bench, watching the farce unfold with amusement, while a little chubby bird flew around in the distance.

That's right! Students should act like students. What are they talking about dating at such a young age? More importantly, don't they know the saying, "Showing off your love will lead to a quick breakup"? Showing off in front of him is just asking for trouble.

In high spirits, Rokudo Mukuro suddenly noticed three figures in the distance: one adult and two children.

The figure over there seemed to have noticed him and was walking towards him.

"Mukuro!" The newcomer was none other than the future tenth generation of the Vongola family—Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was holding a little cow in his arms and had his tutor Reborn on his head.

Reborn: "Ciaos~ Mukuro!"

Rokudo Mukuro returned a smile, "Hello, Sawada-kun, and... Reborn-kun."

"And Lord Lambo..."

Rokudo Mukuro completely ignored this being who was currently only causing trouble.

Seeing Sawada Tsunayoshi's current appearance, Rokudo Mukuro's smile deepened. "Sawada-kun, isn't it rather unseemly for you to appear on the street like this?"

At this moment, Sawada Tsunayoshi was only wearing a pair of pink floral shorts with hearts on them when Reborn forced him to come see Rokudo Mukuro.

Hearing this, Sawada Tsunayoshi's face turned bright red; he was so embarrassed he could dig a castle out of his toes, wishing he could disappear into the ground. Whose fault was it? It was all Reborn's fault!

When Reborn arrived at the park, he keenly noticed something strange about it. There was a subtle sense of unease about the young couples around him. Had Rokudo Mukuro done something?

Soon, several more couples broke up! On White Valentine's Day, it's normal for one couple to break up, but for several couples to break up in the same place is definitely a problem. Reborn quickly connected all the clues, and a speechless feeling spread through his mind: Could this guy have used illusion magic to cause trouble for couples who were showing affection in his place, causing them to break up?

That's so childish.

"What did you do to them?" Reborn asked, somewhat curious.

Sawada Tsunayoshi was completely bewildered.

Rokudo Mukuro looked completely innocent. "I didn't do anything. That guy was a mama's boy, that guy hid behind his girlfriend when he was in danger, and that girl was obsessed with looks, always looking for someone more handsome... None of them really wanted to be in a relationship, so I helped them break up. After all, students' priority right now is studying. Don't you think I did the right thing, Sawada-kun?"

"Huh?! Ah!" Sawada Tsunayoshi looked horrified. Thanks to Reborn's explanation, he finally understood what a illusionist was. Could it be that Mukuro had achieved the status of a "Master of Breakups" through his illusions?!

Mukuro seems to have done the right thing, after all, their kind of love had no future; but then again, it also seems wrong...

How should he answer? More importantly, as a student, he also liked his goddess Kyoko. If Mukuro found out, what would happen...? No, they weren't even dating yet... Thinking of this, he felt even more like crying.

Sawada Tsunayoshi quickly changed the subject, "Mukuro, I'd like to invite you to my house. Chrome is here too, and my mom has cooked a lot of dishes. She'll definitely be happy to have you." He looked at Rokudo Mukuro with anticipation.

"……OK."
