Chapter 156 156

Tenku only takes about three hours by plane to return to Japan. After arriving at the Tokyo airport, he quickly sent a message to Setsuka, Wang Ruyue, and Huang Yuxin. After that, Tenku took a taxi back to his apartment because he had brought many things from China, most of which were souvenirs.

Thirty minutes later, Tenku arrived at his apartment area in the evening. But then he frowned when he saw several people in black suits emerging from the darkness and approaching him.

"Are you Tenku Okuihara??" One of the men in the black suit asked Tenku rudely.

"Yes, I am Tenku. Who are you, and what business do you have with me?" Tenku asked in return.

"If so, you should come with us!" The woman in the black suit said in a commanding tone.

"Huh? Why should I come with you guys?" Tenku narrowed his eyes and felt displeased with the behavior of those people. Moreover, he was confused about how they could know his name and suddenly wanted to take him with them.

"Our boss wants to meet you." The man in the suit said impatiently.

"Who's your boss? I can't come with you if you don't say it." Tenku said indifferently and walked away from them. But before he entered the apartment, the men in black suits blocked him.

"If you don't want to come with us in a good way, then don't blame us if we use force!" The woman in the black suit threatens Tenku.

"Ooh, you want to use violence in this area? If I scream, the people here will know you guys want to kidnap me. After that, they would report this matter to the police or the Realizer. I'm sure your boss will be in trouble for that." Tenku threatens them back.

Their faces darkened when they heard his words. They didn't expect that fifteen-year-old kid to dare to go against them. The people in the black suits looked at each other and didn't know what to do. They were mad at Tenku but couldn't act recklessly in that place. They feared the boy would scream and alert the residents around the apartment.

"Our boss is Mr. Shigeru Yamanaka. He is the owner of the Yamanaka Group." One of the men in a black suit answered. He looks like the leader of those people.

Tenku raised his eyebrows upon hearing that name. He could quickly surmise why those people had come to him. Shigeru Yamanaka is the father of Shinji Yamanaka, one of the students he killed during a mission on Lake Shima. Shigeru must be looking for his son's killer, and Tenku is one of the suspects because he argued with Shinji before leaving for the mission to Lake Shima.

"Can you tell me why your boss wants to meet me? I'm not going with you without a good reason." Tenku asked in confusion. He pretended not to know why they wanted to take him to their boss.

"Do you not know the reason, or are you pretending you don't?" The leader in black said and manifested his Phantasmal Object to threaten Tenku. His weapon was a spear, but his grade and phase didn't seem that high.

"I do not know." Tenku shook his head. The leader felt that Tenku was telling the truth, but he still had to bring him before his Shigeru.

"I can't tell you. You better ask our boss directly." The leader said indifferently.

"In that case, I can't come with you. Goodbye." Tenku firmly refused. He was too lazy to deal with those people and wanted to return to his apartment to rest. But their leader suddenly grabbed his shoulder. He was annoyed to see Tenku's attitude and couldn't hold back any longer.

"What are you doing?" Tenku turned his head and said in a low voice. The leader suddenly kept his distance from Tenku after feeling killing intent from him. The other men in black were confused by their leader's strange behavior.

(What!? What was that!? Why did my body suddenly shiver when I saw his eyes? Am I scared of him? Impossible! We have checked the information about him and believe the boy is a freshman at Suisei High School.

Moreover, he was called the weakest student due to obtaining an F-Rank Phantasmal Object at the awakening ceremony. So how could he possibly release such killing intent!? It must be just my illusion! He must have used some trick to scare me!)

The leader gritted his teeth because he thought Tenku had used a sneaky trick to make him freak out and lose face in front of his men.

"Bastard!" The leader roared and intended to thrust his spear.

On the other hand, Tenku's face didn't change when he saw that person wanted to attack him. A spear thrust from a low-level Realizer wouldn't be able to injure him. What's more, his cultivation base had increased by leaps and bounds. Tenku was sure he could beat him in one punch.

Tenku stood motionless in his position and looked at the leader calmly. He showed no signs of fighting back or moving from that place. The leader got even angrier when he saw that and thought that Tenku was looking down on him.

"Die!" The leader thrust his spear with all his might. He no longer cares about Tenku's threats, as his anger has consumed him.

Even if he accidentally killed Tenku in that attack, he was sure his boss would help him deal with the matter. After all, Shigeru Yamanaka would kill the boy in the end. The leader only speeds up the process. But before his attack hit Tenku, he heard a scream, and a wall of ice suddenly appeared.

Clank!

"Who!? Who dares to interfere with my business!?" The leader shouted angrily, but his body trembled when he saw the person who had blocked his attack. She is a girl with long straight black hair and resembles Yamato Nadeshiko.

He knew who that girl was. She was the daughter of the current head of Fuyushima Temple, Setsuka Fuyushima. She was also a senior Realizer of Holy Union. Setsuka didn't come alone to that place.

As usual, she is accompanied by her best friend, Kaede Kobayashi. The leader also recognized her, and their appearance made him break out in a cold sweat. The other black-suited people were also frightened because they recognized the two girls.

Unlike them, Tenku was confused by the appearance of Setsuka and Kaede. After he arrived at Tokyo airport, he sent a message to Setsuka to let her know that he had returned to Japan and would see Kohana tomorrow. But after Tenku returned to his apartment, that girl suddenly appeared, which felt strange to him.

"What is she doing here at this hour? Are monsters roaming this neighborhood again? Did the members of that organization start moving again?" Tenku frowned at the thought of that possibility. He shook his head and didn't want to guess about it. Tenku had to ask Setsuka directly if he wanted to know why. But before that, he had to deal with the matter here.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Why do you want to attack him? Don't you know that using Phantasmal Objects to attack fellow Realizers is strictly forbidden, and you will be severely punished? Or, you are an illegal Realizer?" Setsuka narrowed her eyes and asked.

"That is..." The leader was at a loss as to how to answer Setsuka. Whatever reason he gave would be useless because the girl had seen him attack Tenku using his Phantasmal Object.

"Why are you silent? Answer my question now! What are you doing here? Why did you attack him? If you can't answer that, I will arrest you and hand you to my organization." Setsuka repeated her question, and the temperature in the area dropped drastically.

Kaede was confused when she saw Setsuka's behavior. Her friend had been acting strangely today. In the morning, Setsuka invites her to take on a patrolling mission from the organization.

At first, they had their patrol missions going smoothly, and they avoided crowded places because Setsuka didn't like being the center of attention. But then his best friend pouted when he got a message from someone this afternoon.

Several hours later, Setsuka suddenly asked her to patrol around that area and heard an argument in front of the small apartment. She rushed over after hearing a voice that was familiar to her.

Then the two girls saw a boy surrounded by people in black suits. Kaede recognized Tenku because he was her underclassman and someone who might have a special relationship with her best friend.

No wonder Setsuka asked her to patrol the area and ran over quickly after hearing the argument in front of the apartment. It turns out that Setsuka heard Tenku's voice among them, and she was angry when she saw a man in black attack him with a spear.

Kaede remembered when they had dinner at a cafe yesterday. Setsuka's mood suddenly soured after seeing a certain video on the forums. After that, Kaede looked into it to discover why her best friend had become like that. She found the answer after repeating the video several times.

She finds Tenku's figure in the video, and he is hugged by two beautiful girls who are no less than Setsuka. Now Kaede knows why her best friend got angry and smashed her smartphone. But she was amazed by how Setsuka found Tenku in the video with one look.

It took Kaede several hours to find Tenku's figure in the video, but Setsuka could do it easily as she was familiar with him. That way, Kaede was sure Setsuka had fallen in love with that boy. Then she saw her best friend face to face with the leader of the men in black and was ready to attack him at any moment if his answer could not satisfy her.

"I... I wanted to ask him to come with me, but he made fun of me instead. I got angry and subconsciously manifested my Phantasmal Object and attacked him. I'm sorry that I made a mistake." The leader said with a trembling voice, hoping Setsuka would believe him. He secretly glared at Tenku to silence him and didn't say anything unnecessary.

"Ooh, is that so?" Setsuka looked to Tenku for confirmation, and the other party nodded.

Tenku couldn't kill those people in black suits before Setsuka and Kaede. Thus, he wanted them to leave his apartment area as soon as possible. Tenku already knows the person behind them and will care for him tomorrow. But now he was tired and wanted to rest soon.

"Alright. Since your words are true, you can leave this place now." Setsuka said coldly, and the black suit people trembled.

"We understand!" They answered in unison and quickly left the area. The only people left in that place were Setsuka, Tenku, and Kaede.

After the black suit people disappeared from that neighborhood, Setsuka turned her eyes to Tenku. She was momentarily silent, not knowing what to say to him. But then Setsuka finally worked up the courage and opened her mouth.

"Good evening. How are you after your vacation in Beijing?" Setsuka smiled and asked. But Tenku could feel that his tone sounded prickly at the end of his sentence.
