Haru sometimes really underestimated his ability, and he didn't expect that he would be so popular. It was so hard for him to talk around. He had always needed to wear his disguise everywhere, but he didn't wear his usual glasses this time, but he wore skull caps and sunglasses to hide his identity.
It had been a month since his debut, and his popularity had always been at its peak. He had a lot of fans, including both normal people and the Magician. He believed that if he decided to enter politics, it would be very easy for him.
This time, Haru and Sumire were at the private laboratory of the Rokkaku clan that was built shortly after both of them came to this clan.
Sumire learned a lot of things and also understood many things, but one thing for sure, she knew that she had become stronger. Still, if she wanted to become even stronger, she needed to have a brain that could process data like a computer, or else, she needed an external machine to do that, but she had to admit that all of that was very troublesome to achieve.
Still, even if Sumire wasn't as strong as Haru, she was a fairly powerful magician in this world. After all, she was taught a lot of magic and strategy to fight by Haru.
"Still, why have you made so much CAD (Casting Assistant Device)?" Sumire asked since she could see many kinds of CAD that Haru developed were put on the table. There were many shapes of CADs from the bracelet, a mobile terminal, long and short gun, rifle-shaped, special weapons, etc. "Isn't it better to develop a thought-controlled CAD? That way, you don't need to bring a lot of things, right?"
"You don't have a romance, Sumire." Haru shook his head, and in truth, it was his hobby to develop the various shapes of CAD. "Well, my entrance exam might begin soon. Which shape do you think I should use on the exam?"
Even though a CAD might be useful, for Haru, who could do a calculation and did a Magic Sequence on his head directly, these devices were useless, after all, the number of Magic that could be kept inside the CAD was quite limited, and it was better to do magic by himself directly. Still, for the sake of not causing too much attention, he decided to bring it with him, but he had to admit that he had been quite hooked to create various CAD with various unique shapes.
"How about this chainsaw?" Sumire said and took the chainsaw type of CAD.

"Then how about this poleaxe?" Sumire asked and took the poleaxe.
"....." Haru.
Sumire sighed and said, "If you didn't even use it, why did you even create it?"
"It is just a hobby." Haru also wondered why he created a lot of strange shapes in CAD, but then, in the end, he chose the metal bat shape of the CAD and the mobile terminal shape.
"The metal bat? Why?" Sumire asked.
"Well, it can become my trademark or something." Haru smiled and said, "How about we go out and eat something?"
"Um." Sumire nodded and didn't think too much. After all, this guy sometimes was very random.
Haru and Sumire went out, and no one stopped them. They didn't go to the luxurious restaurant, but rather they went to the nearby udon chain restaurant. They didn't bring a bodyguard since they had to admit that their lives in Sendai were pretty much peaceful. After all, this city was the Rokkaku clan's turf.
There wasn't any trouble for them, and they arrived at the udon shop peacefully, but they had to admit that there were a lot of strange things happening along the way.
"Haru..." Sumire, who ordered her udon, looked at Haru and knew that something was amiss.
"It's alright. You don't need to worry." Haru raised his eyebrow and wondered how those two suddenly came to him. He thought for a while, and he knew that he hadn't provoked anyone, nor anyone dared to provoke him. After all, together with the Rokkaku, he also tamed the Rokugo, Roppongi, and Mutsuzuka with money.
Haru knew that the Mutsuzuka clan head seemed to be very close with this person, but he knew that even the Matsuzuka clan was clueless about him. He could only shake his head and waited for this person to come. After all, he didn't feel harm in this person.
Haru and Sumire quietly ate their udon and tempura while talking to each other. Even though the number of the people in this restaurant slowly decreased, leaving only both of them alone, they didn't say much and continued to eat.
Then suddenly a beautiful mature woman entered the restaurant along with an elderly butler.
Haru and Sumire turned, and the impression of the woman in front of them was like a night sky. It was beautiful, but if they got too close, they might be swallowed by the darkness.
"Good afternoon," the woman said with a smile.
"Good afternoon." 2x
Haru and Sumire nodded, then continued to eat, but then the woman suddenly sat beside Sumire.
"...." Sumire.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Do you have something with us?" Haru asked.
"Well, I didn't expect that the most famous superstar would be eating in this cheap restaurant." The woman looked at Haru's food and said, "Don't you know that there's a lot of chemicals in your food? Whether it is antiseptics, colorants, preservatives, acidulants, etc., there are a lot of harmful chemicals in your food, do you know?"
Haru nodded and said, "I know."
"Then why do you keep eating it?" The woman asked and looked at Haru curiously.
The butler who came with this woman just stood there and didn't bother them, but he was also looking at Haru curiously since it was his first time to see him, and he had to admit that he was more handsome in reality. If Haru didn't wear a disguised kind of magic, he was sure that many people would flock around him.
"You can't just eat "what's good for you" if you do that, your body will grow vulnerable. You have to take "good" with a little "bad" once in a while." Haru's chopsticks caught the kakiage tempura on the plate on the table, but no one said anything, listening to his every word carefully. "Food is like life. You need your fair share of sadness, pain, vitamins, and poison to overcome the obstacles. You have to keep taking both of them, in measured quantities, to improve the flow and the growth of bones and muscles in our body."
"...." The woman, the butler, and Sumire.
The three of them didn't expect that his view of food would be so deep.
"Well, I wonder what the head of the Yotsuba clan wants to visit a little singer like me?" Haru dipped the kakiage on his udon broth, then ate it slowly as if he put every bit of his mind and soul into it. He was wondering what was on the head of Yotsuba Maya to suddenly come to visit him. After all, this woman's image was like a criminal, and she often stayed in her study rather than coming out to visit him.
"Well, in truth, I'm just curious at the boy who is capable of expanding the power of the Rokkaku clan into a giant, but I have changed my mind." The woman looked at Haru and said, "Kasugano Haruka, I want you. Be mine." She supported her chin with her hands and looked at him with a seductive gaze.
"...." Haru, Sumire, and the butler.
'Are you serious?' It was what was in their thoughts at the time.
