Chapter 94
Tatsuo Gojo reflexively wanted to scold him, but when he saw Kazuma Hato sitting next to Satoru Gojo and remembered the latter's threat that afternoon, his anger immediately subsided.
We must support Gojo Satoru! Full support!
"What are you talking about? What exists in this world are cursed spirits, not ghosts and gods."
At this moment, even Gojo Tatsuo's reprimands became indifferent, and his tone was extremely gentle, which made Sou's eyes widen as he deliberately argued with Gojo Satoru.
The elders who used to share his hatred and take turns "educating" him are now all wearing unusually tolerant smiles towards him.
"…………"
Aside from his childhood when he was relatively obedient to his family's discipline, when had Gojo Satoru ever been treated with such a kind, grandfatherly attitude again? It was so eerie that it sent chills down one's spine.
Cluck cluck—
The rice bowl that Gojo Satoru was holding instantly cracked, proof that his curse power had been terrified and lost control.
The servant beside him was very perceptive and immediately replaced his bowl of rice with a fresh one.
Gojo Satoru: "..."
Did he accidentally miss some important plot development while taking his afternoon nap?
Or perhaps he's still dreaming?
Gojo Satoru blinked his azure eyes twice, subconsciously looking in the direction of Hagoromo Kazuma—the latter immediately returned his gaze, tilting his head slightly, seemingly curious about what was wrong with him.
Surely it wasn't made by this super silly black Shiba Inu?
Impossible, impossible! He couldn't even change the minds of these stubborn old folks, how could Yizhen possibly do it!
Gojo Satoru silently turned his head back to face the still smiling old man's face.
Of course, Gojo Tatsuo wouldn't tell him that the "invitation to the exchange meeting" was something he had arranged urgently with an old friend that afternoon.
"Okay, let's go take a look."
He replied slowly, even with a hint of wariness.
"Anyway, it sounds quite interesting."
Tatsuo Gojo and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
As core conservatives, they are naturally the absolute supporters of the current order in the world of sorcery—and they only learned of that person's existence through a hint from the head of the supervisory department.
Any opposition to the Directorate's decision, or any fools who intended to reform this old order in a way that suited the times, had already been quietly eliminated.
While the three starter families do occupy the vast majority of seats in the Directors' Office, it doesn't mean that everyone from the three starter families will necessarily become a member of the Directors' Office once they reach a certain age.
This is a two-way selection and testing process. By eliminating the opposition and keeping the conservatives, and through years of concerted efforts and development, it has reached its current scale.
As for that person's existence, it's not to say that they are entirely a threat to them.
They act in accordance with the other party's wishes, and the other party will give them sufficiently attractive benefits in return.
If Gojo Tatsuo wanted to refuse Hato Kazuma's threats, he naturally had a way—he would resign from the General Manager's Office, hand over his position as the head of the Gojo family, and give up all the power he had gained to farm and retire. Naturally, no one would make things difficult for him anymore.
The same applies to the Gojo family.
But Gojo Tatsuo couldn't bear to part with it, and neither could the elders.
Therefore, they willingly jumped into this cesspool, turning themselves into accomplices of the conservatives.
As for Gojo Tatsuo, he really couldn't stand Gojo Satoru's overly willful behavior, which was not as steady and compliant as the son of the head of the neighboring Zen-in family.
Strictly speaking, Gojo Satoru was at most a bit rebellious, but his powerful strength was enough to make up for that shortcoming.
This is how Tatsuo Gojo comforted himself.
In other words, what he needs to do is not difficult; he just needs to stop trying to admonish the other party and instead support Gojo Satoru as the head of the family, as well as the orders he issues after becoming the head of the family.
It's just a matter of changing your attitude, what's so difficult about that?
He had no intention of giving up the power he had already acquired.
—It was only because Hajime Hajime truly understood this that he dared to directly threaten Tatsuo Gojo, trying to get him to treat Satoru better.
However, he also had the plan that if the other party didn't buy it, he would kill him on the spot and make that cult leader clean up his mess.
Anyway, the patriarch still needs him to stop the assimilation of the astral body next year, so we have to protect him no matter what.
Even if it's not guaranteed, he immediately revealed the plan to Tengen-sama, who was hiding in the basement of Tokyo College.
When it comes to betraying his own boss in this game, Kazuma Hatake feels absolutely no psychological pressure.
…………
As for Gojo Satoru, this meal left him completely bewildered.
He couldn't understand why these old guys were suddenly so tolerant, not even getting angry when he deliberately provoked them, and scolding him for "disrespecting his elders".
On the way back, Gojo Satoru asked Yuuichi with some skepticism.
"Could it be that you really did something?"
Kazuma Hatori would never lie to Satoru Gojo, so he would answer every question.
"Anyway, he's afraid of me, so I went to talk to Tatsuo Gojo."
I'd rather not disclose the specifics of how the talks were conducted.
But clearly, Gojo Satoru immediately conjured up a long dialogue in his mind, and even sketched out a picture of a black Shiba Inu baring its teeth at Gojo Tatsuo in a very fierce manner—although the image was quite subtle just to think about, it made him unable to suppress a few pleasant laughs.
"It really was you who did it..."
Gojo Satoru laughed as he reached out to rub the boy's head, never expecting this black Shiba Inu to be so brave!
"Aren't you worried that the old man will treat you badly?"
Kazuma Hatori let his hair get all messed up again, and calmly replied, "He wouldn't dare."
"Don't just run there by yourself next time. What if those elders don't like you and secretly set a trap for you?"
In a great mood, Gojo Satoru put his arm around Hato Kazuma's shoulder, raised his hand and patted his head, giving him a friendly reminder.
"I'm not worried about myself, after all, I'm super strong, no one can beat me. But you're different, you're a magic idiot who doesn't even know how to use spells."
He's the kind of guy who makes you worry.
Thinking this, Gojo Satoru's lips curved into a smile, and his large, round blue eyes narrowed like a cat's, feeling extremely happy and excited for Hato Kazuma's worry about his treatment in the Gojo family.
"good."
Kazuma Hatori nodded, looking exceptionally obedient.
"Oh, and also, don't reveal that you don't know how to use spells yet. I'll tell them you're an incredibly powerful level one sorcerer!"
Slapping his head wasn't enough; Gojo Satoru raised his hand and poked Hagoromo Kazuma's face, reminding him to remember not to give himself away.
"good."
A smile flickered in Kazuma Hatori's eyes.
"Well, before we go to that sister school exchange event, I'll find you a few magical artifacts to disguise yourself..."
Gojo Satoru pinched his chin, seriously considering how to add something intimidating to Hatori Kazuma, making this black Shiba Inu who dared to directly threaten the elder look extremely unapproachable.
"Isn't it enough that Wu is here?"
Kazuma Hatori blinked his dark eyes. "After all, Satoru is the strongest."
"—You little rascal,"
The joy radiating from Gojo Satoru's face was not only impossible to hide, but it even became more radiant, and he couldn't help but start rubbing the black Shiba Inu's head again.
"Trying to curry favor with Senior Wu indirectly won't work!"
"Huh, it's not working?"
"It's somewhat useful—just somewhat useful! Don't be too smug as a junior, are you secretly laughing at me again?"
"cough……"
