Chapter 17: News from the Family
"Then do you know that there are traces of 'Fa' on Lu Dao's body?" Magician Aozaki asked again.
"Traces of the 'law'? I don't know about it, but I think it's what it does. Mayu replied truthfully.
"So...... Since you're a magic envoy, let's continue to study magic with the orange girl. The magician didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking. However, the last one allowed Mayu to come to Orange to discuss magic.
"Ah, thank you so much." Mayu thanked.
"Thank you, Grandfather." Orange, who hasn't spoken since he came in, also said.
Seeing the magic envoy away, seeing that Orange had been staring at him, Mayu asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Do you have anything to explain?" Orange said, and then probably felt that his words were too ambiguous, "Well, I mean, I don't know much about your magic heritage. ”
"Well, there's nothing you can't say. When I was about three years old, I began to learn all kinds of magic knowledge that she gave me, which means that she was my guide to the magic path. She gave me almost all of my magic. Mayu said, in retrospect, Orionica was almost all of his strength.
Listening to Maha's words, it seems to have resonated with oranges. As the last hope of the Aozaki family, Orange has been cultivated purely as a "magician's egg" since he was a child, and he has been cultivated purely as a magician's genius. Orange's childhood was also spent studying magic. Of course, it's not that Orange regrets it, as a goal that she has worked hard for fifteen years, she doesn't regret it, but she just sighs a little when she mentions it occasionally.
"It's late today, I'll come back tomorrow." Seeing that it was not early, Zhenyu said goodbye.
"Hmm." Oranges should arrive.
For the next few days, Mawa would go to the orange at about two o'clock in the afternoon every day to discuss the problem, and then stay until six o'clock when the sun was in the west. I have to say that the two of them have full interest and tacit understanding in this regard, and in the past few days, whether it is Zhenyu's alchemy or orange's puppet technique, there have been a lot of improvements.
Although they have been alone with each other for the past few days, and there has been no spark of love or anything like that, can you count on the eleven-year-old true feather, or on the orange who doesn't care about the world? Besides, for these two somewhat fanatical magicians, everything after entering the state is a floating cloud except for the subject of study.
Just when Zhenyu was intoxicated with the improvement of his ability, a news came from the family that shocked Zhenyu: the Asagami family declared bankruptcy, and the head of the Asagami family apologized for his crimes.
Can't understand, really can't understand.
Shouldn't the Asakami family go bankrupt when Fujino was twelve, that is, in 1995? It's only 1988.
After Mawa and Fujino got engaged, I don't know what the deal was or because of the future daughter-in-law's affection, Asagami Yasuzo contributed money to help the Asagami family repay part of the loan, and the two families worked together to develop the land in Nagano Prefecture in the form of Asagami capital and Asagami deland. In other words, no matter what, the current situation of the Asagami family is much better than the desperate and bankrupt family in the original book. So, why is the Asagami Feather Boat like this?
Could it be......
Mayu thought of a possibility, but then reacted, and now Asagami Yasuzo has no reason to make a move.
If you want to annex the Asagami family, adopting such a radical form and such an ugly eating appearance, it will make the image of the Asagami family plummet, and it is impossible for Asagami Yasuzo to be so irrational.
Forget it, we'll see you when you get back.
But before that, you need to say goodbye to Orange and Aoko. As for the magic envoy, except after seeing him that day, Zhenyu had never seen him at any other time. According to Orange, the magician often goes out and about.
The two orange sisters are very reluctant, but there is no way to do it, there is no way to do something urgent at home. After agreeing to come back, Qingzi was reluctant to let go of Mayu.
After saying goodbye to the two orange sisters, Zhenyu returned to Buzi City.
In other words, Kanbuko City and Misaki Town were originally adjacent, which means that Mayu ran all the way to Fuyuki City, and then ran back to Misaki Town, which is next door to Kanfuzi City. However, in order to get the information of the Holy Grail first, there is no way.
………………………………………………
Back at the family, nothing has changed, and the atmosphere is a little dignified.
Walk to the family chamber, where everyone is.
"I'm back." Yasuzo Asagami was the first to speak.
"Well, Fujino went back?" Looking around, I didn't see Fujino's figure, and Mayu asked.
"It makes sense that she has to go back first. After receiving the news, I asked her to send her back. ”
"Oh."
Zhenyu was silent for a moment and asked, "What the hell is going on?" How did this happen all of a sudden? ”
"It's just human nature. You're too young to understand. When I reached the position of the head of the family, watching this family fall day by day, I guess I would choose this path too. Unexpectedly, Asagami Yasuzo gave an answer that surprised Maha.
It's not that Mayu doesn't understand, but the concept is different.
From the moment he was born, the views of Maha's previous life influenced him. In his opinion, the family is a dispensable thing, and what Zhenyu cares about is his relatives. The family could have allowed him to make certain things simpler, but that's about it. If the family is ruined, it can be saved, and if it can't, there is nothing.
But in the eyes of these two family heads, the family is almost everything, if you can't revitalize the family, then at least you must keep the inheritance left by your ancestors. If the family is defeated in its own hands, then it can only be self-defeated. Watching the family fall day by day, it is estimated that it is also a torment in my heart.
This is probably what Mayu understood in the words of Yasuzo Asakami.
"Hasn't the Asakami family developed quite well in the past few years? At least it's not going down. "Mayu is still a little confused.
"It's not the Asakami group that's dragged down." Yasuzo Asagami's tone was rarely angry, and it seemed that he was very angry with this Asashimi group, "That group is simply a white-eyed wolf that can't be fed, and Nagano Construction's annual profits are swallowed up at all." With such a bastard who is dragging his feet, it is rare for the Asagami family to survive until now. ”
In Asagami Yasuzo's narration, Mayu probably knew the reason for the incident.
The Asagami Group is a family business similar in nature to the Asagami Group, but its ruler is Asakami Yushu on the surface, but it is actually the elder group behind the Asagami family. This is also the disadvantage of some old families, the elder group and the patriarch pinch each other, there is always one of the two to take power, either a strong patriarch, or the elder group holds a lot of power, of course, there may also be a situation where the two river crabs get along, but after all, it is very rare, in front of interests, family affection is worth a few cents.
Originally, after the fall of the Asami family, the elder group had given up taking care of affairs and began a semi-secluded life. However, after Asagami cooperated with the Asagami family, the Asagami family stopped its decline and the situation began to improve. At this time, the elder group was restless and jumped out to seize power, and the ownership of the Asajin group changed. In the hands of those old guys, the Asagami Group declined within a few years, and was heavily in debt, almost ending up with Nagano Construction. When Asagami Yuzhou saw this situation, he probably died of heart. In the end, he chose to cut himself. After knowing what happened, Mayu was silent.
