Clack
Noah & co saw the guest room when they opened the door to this cabin
A fareeted them
He was an old ht back and he also sat at the couch with perfect styleHe waited there with closed eyesHe looked like a disciplined warrior who isat hi at the old man who they haven't seen for quite some time now, Rentaro and Kisara had tense expressionsThey weren't treating each other like family members, it's like they were faced with their arch-nemesis
Cohting against the old man for a whole year looked rather coo play with Enju and Tina”
Kayo who knew about the relationshi+p between Noah and Kikunojou nodded without delayEnju who hed in reliefThey were glad they didn't have to deal with this
Tina doesn't know about the animosity between Kikunojou and NoahShe is also unaware of the implications of Kikunojou's visitHowever, she can tell soirls out of the guest room
Kisara and Rentaro stayed, rather, they looked like bodyguards when they stuck by Noah's sideThey also kept their eyes trained on Kikunojou
Kikunojou is Kisara's grandfather, and, the enemy she can never reconcile with
Kikunojou is Rentaro's adoptive father, he's also his ht him battle skillsDue to Kisara's bad blood with Kikunojou, his relationshi+p with Kikunojou soured as a resultHowever, he doesn't hate the guy as much as Kisara
Noah didn't ask them to leaveInstead, he sat doith the two in tow
Time froze, the roosMeanwhile, Kikunojou, Kisara, and Rentaro sat in Seiza
Kikunojou said nothing for a full 5 minutesHe just sat there with shut eyesFinally, the old ht I would visit this sanctuary”
The mood immediately turned hostile
”Really?”
Noah grinned
”How do you feel?”
”As you would expect”
Kikunojou opened his eyes, he used his sharp gaze on Noah
”I've been tolifeI even ventured into Gastrea monster densBut, this is the worst place I've been to”
Indeed
As the poster child of the one who hated cursed children, this figurehead of the Stolen Generation abhorred the idea of co with cursed children
Noah just laughed Kikunojou's harsh words off
”Good, it would upset”
The tasted no ti the already tense nite
Watching the two co at each other ood look at the animosity between them
They assumed they were just on bad terms
Kisara and Rentaro didn't think they would unabashedly jab at each other with no signs of coThey were like water and fire
Anyone watching theet nervous no matter their nerves
Yet, the tere unperturbed
Apparently, verbal blows like these were custoot tired of this uncultured exchange of hostilityHe looked at Kisara and Rentaro
”You two, so this is the kind of place you two visit?”
