Yuzuriha Akiha couldn't believe her eyes for a moment, the little guy in front of her seemed to be younger than 15 years old, in fact, he looked more like 12 or 13 years old.
The most surprising thing in her eyes though was that she could easily feel that he was strong, there was inner energy inside his body, and it wasn't just a little sign of it.
The little kid in front of her clearly had surpassed the 3rd level of origin refining body, as he was still 12 to 13 years old.
Her shock became even bigger as she remembered his words though, as she clearly heard him say sister-in-law, despite her own age.
Her husband Takeshiba Tomiyasu didn't have a brother that was so young, so that left the only other option available, this kid was sent there by Eric.
She still was able to remember that when she had made a deal with Eric about the formulae that day, he had asked her body, her daughters, and a few others.
Even though she wasn't that convinced that day, she had still agreed, and now that she had seen the strength, and quality of those formulae she couldn't help but accept it wholeheartedly.
Certainly, that would gather a lot of hate, and trouble on Eric's head, but she didn't care much. To her family was first, and everything else second including her daughters.
But still, such a young child with such a cultivation, and such an age was clearly beyond her expectations.
Furthermore, that mantled guy beside him didn't seem like some normal one either, as he had been able to push back her Pre-Natal stage guard back by more than one step.
Which meant that he was at least that strong, or even stronger. She couldn't underestimate either of the two.
On the other hand, Eric was quite surprised himself, the woman in front of him was certainly not an easy to deal with person.
According to his Legacy System, the guard that he had just pushed back a while ago was level 53, she herself was level 58, and he could feel that there was a much more dangerous person in the area.
He had expected Yuzuriha Akiha to bring her own protection into a place like this, but he didn't expect her to bring such skilled bodyguards.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut that was to be expected as she was the Mistress of the Takeshiba Family and even the little sister of the Yuzuriha family head.
He could see by her eyes that she was contemplating him and his 'junior brother' as well, and there was no sign of her understanding that he was just a clone he had created.
His plan seemed to have worked just fine, the shock, and pensive expression on her face was enough of an indicator of that.
At first, Eric had thought of sending a 'Senior Brother' to her side, but that might make her want to charm him to her side and it would be too much of a bother to deal with that.
After all, he didn't want his clones to have relations to women that would belong to him, even that one case where he said a clone of himself was an exception.
Furthermore, the negotiations would go much smoother if he managed to shock her a bit at the start and make her lose her focus.
As he was looking at the surroundings like that, Yuzuriha Akiha seemed to have regained her control, as she said to the little kid,
"Did that guy send you here!? Why didn't he come here himself?"
The little kid was looking at her from head to toe, as he even spent some special time looking at her chest, and back, as he made a sign for the guard behind him to leave and said,
"Well, Senior Brother has a weird 'brother complex', so Master decided to remove these matters from his care, and leave in the hands of us, his 'junior brothers'.
But don't worry beautiful sister-in-law, we have no intention of removing you from our conditions.
Even though that toad that 'Senior Brother' has for a brother wants to eat swan meat, we won't allow him."
When he said that last line, that little kid even seemed furious for some reason. He looked like someone was stopping him to go and kill that toad where he stood.
At that moment though Yuzuriha Akira seemed to have understood a bit about the relationship between Eric and that bastard that recently appeared claiming to be his brother, Michael.
For a woman of her status and level of strength, it was impossible for her to not notice those lusty and perverted looks of his, upon her and her daughters.
Until now she had been enduring him as she didn't know Eric's position in this, but that hadn't stopped her from warning him a few times.
Now that she knew about the relationship and the situation between them, she thought whether she would be able to use that to her advantage.
But as she was pondering that matter, the child in front of her placed a smile on his face, as he said,
"Beautiful sister-in-law, please don't think of making use of that toad to profit from 'Senior Brother' otherwise Master, and all us disciples will come after you, and everyone related to you, and kill you all!"
Cold! Extremely Cold!
This was the first time that Yuzuriha Akiha had been shocked senseless. His words were threatening but that didn't matter at that moment, what shocked her was the little kids 'killing intent'!
Even though he seemed to like only 12 or 13 years old, he seemed like he had killed thousands or even millions of people.
His killing intent was so strong that it looked like it would be able to slowly materialize, shocking her out of her senses.
Just how could such a little kid have this kind of killing intent available to him. Even her guard beside her seemed to be shocked by what he felt, and he had been a soldier in the army.
The shock was just too great for her, as she made a mental note to never try anything stupid from that point on.
As she was thinking like that, the little kid in front of her, seemed to be pleased with their reactions, and then continued,
"So, Beautiful sister-in-law is everything ready for the exchange!?"
Yuzuriha Akiha was still extremely shocked by everything happening, but still, she managed to recollect e bit of herself with a deep breath as she extended a card to him and then said,
"Yes, the card contains 1.5 billion dollars, as well as information over me and the other ladies requested, I am ready to hand over my body to your senior brother whenever he wishes.
In fact, I am ready even tonight if he wants company!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe little kid took that card from her hands, and then continued,
"Well thank you for your generosity, prepare the participants for the bet, and the disciples ready to leave towards Senkaku Islands in three days."
Then he quickly handed over 2 books, and two pieces of paper to her, and on top of that even a small jade bottle containing a few pills inside.
"That last thing is a gift from Master, he said that it was 'Energy Gathering Pill' that would help someone increase their strength by at least a few small realms.
Master hopes that as long as he is in Senkaku Islands, the country would do its best to help and protect him from the vile beings of this world!"
Yuzuriha Akiha wasn't able to hear what he said until the end, as she was lost when he was describing those pills.
At least a few small realms? The pills able to help with the increase of a small realm or level were already extremely rare and expensive, while this kid was saying a few small realms with contempt.
She couldn't believe what he was saying, the price of those pills was certainly much bigger compared to the formulae in the short run.
There were quite a few people in the family that could make use of these pills in order to reach new heights, so she couldn't understand that that Master was giving these pills to them.
It was just beyond her imagination, or expectations, as she couldn't help but for a second think of her life beside Eric.
If his Master was able to give such lavicious gifts to other people so easily, then what about the people by his side.
Even though she knew that it might as well be impossible, it didn't hurt for her to think like that. As for the protection of those islands, there was no way they wouldn't be protecting them at first.
At least until the bet was over! The big families wouldn't want to lose their descendants in there, after all, so she said with a reassuring voice,
"Certainly, we will do whatever we can to protect that place!"
The little kid seemed satisfied with the answer he received, so he turned around and started to leave, when he was reminded of something and then said,
"As for the matter of your body, I don't think that it will happen tonight, as the bewitching powder over your body is too thick, we wouldn't want Senior Brother to fall prey to that.
I hope that you won't do such an unpleasing thing when the time is correct, otherwise, even 'senior brother' won't be able to save you from Master's revenge!"
