Atobe Keigo frowned slightly, put down his crossed legs, and stood up.

Looking down at Kirihara Akaya who was holding an umbrella outside, he said,

"Ah, Kirihara Akaya, don't be so arrogant. It's not your turn to say such things when I'm here."

Kirihara Akaya was furious, "What did you say?"

"So what if I said it? If you want to talk to me, it's either Yukimura or Sanada, or Yanagi can be the worst. As for you, who are you? Huh?"

"You, I am Rikkai's ace, Kirihara Akaya! How dare you look down on me......"

Atobe Keigo hit the nail on the head: "You are not qualified!"

How can I allow you to offend my Ice Emperor's dignity like this!

Mukaito said venomously, "Ace? Self-proclaimed, right?"

Kirihara Akaya alone couldn't win over the entire Hyotei team, but he didn't want to leave in disgrace.

So I got so angry that I stuttered, "You, you guys really don't know how to live or die..."

Just then,

The voice of Sanada Genichirō came.

"Akaye, let's meet at the coffee shop. We are getting ready to go back. What are you still doing here?"

Kirihara Akari also snorted.

Then he turned around and answered,

"Oh, Vice Minister Sanada, I'm just saying hello to the Hyotei people. I'll be right there."

The sound of rain covering the sky covered up the sound of footsteps approaching him silently.

An ice-cold white hand, with the chill of rain, was quietly placed on Kirihara Akaya's shoulder, like the hand of a water ghost, with pale and cold fingertips.

Kirihara Akaya shuddered at the first instant.

"Yes, who, who?"

For a moment, all that flashed through my mind were the images of water ghosts in horror movies, ghosts in the rain, various strange stories in the rain, the unsolved mysteries of people disappearing in the rain, and so on.

Fortunately, that voice was cold and icy.

But it sounded strangely familiar to him.

"Oh? Who doesn't know how to live or die? I can help. The dead can become alive, and the living can also experience death. It's best to experience it yourself, right?"

Fortunately, it was Jingguang senior, a human...

As long as you are human.

Wait.....

Who was it?

The boy's cold tone made the arrogant little seaweed swallow the rest of his words and his hair stood on end.

It's terrible...

What did I just say?

Kirihara Akaya swallowed his saliva, turned his head stiffly, gritted his teeth and said, "You, Jing, Atobe Jingguang, don't think that I, I am afraid of you! Although you are the minister... and my doctor, and you always give me bitter things, but, but..."

You can lose the battle but not the battle!

Don’t lose face!!

He closed his eyes, hardened his heart, and stuttered out harsh words, "But on the court, I'm not afraid of you, and I will definitely not let you win!!"

It's a courageous move to cut the original brand kelp.

Jing Guang nodded calmly, patted his shoulder, and said, "Well, I don't plan to let you go."

I will "educate" you well.

Tell you,

What is cold kelp salad, boiled kelp shreds...

Oh~

How dare you talk to my brother in this manner?

Neither Yukimura Seiichi nor Sanada Genichirō dare to do this!!

"Liu, stop standing there and watching the fun!"

Atobe Kagemitsu glanced at the timid Kirihara with a cold look.

Looking back, he raised his chin slightly and said coldly,

"And Sanada Genichirō, take your directionally challenged kid back home. If he continues to speak out and offend my brother, I can't guarantee that I can resist not punishing him right now! Also, if you disrespect my brother again, even for the sake of Jingshi and Yanagi being friends, it will be useless!"

Why not for my sake?

Am I not a friend?

Genichirō Sanada pressed down the brim of his hat, and a thought flashed through his mind with a bit of depression.
