Yorikawa Naohito, Centenaire Éguilles Gra.s.s, Bank

“I am really grateful to you, President-san!”

After both of the young and old fatties got taken away by the police, Nagisa took a deep bow towards the perverted old man, and the swaying of her b.o.o.bs almost made his eyeb.a.l.l.s pop out from how intently he was staring.

He laughed lightly, “No problem, after all, am I not the medical saint?  Besides, helping you has also helped our hospital by giving us cause to be rid of that Akahos.h.i.+ family from this place, so personally curing your father is only natural.”

“No!  No matter what, I must repay the President’s kindness.”

“Oh?  No matter what?  Must repay me?”  The corner of the old man’s mouth slightly curved up, a very lewd smile.  How did he infer that based on what Nagisa just said?  Did Nagisa even say she must repay him no matter what?

“Hey!  Perverted old man, don’t get any funny ideas about Nagisa…”

s.h.i.+t…  I shouted out the nickname I gave him in the heat of the moment… the people present also averted their gaze from me…  It appears that I have offended their respected President.

“Oh?  Kid, what did you just call me?”  The perverted old man’s expression darkened, his eyes unceasingly glaring at me.  I must say, those sharp eyes can definitely put pressure on people.

It was the slip of the tongue… now what?  Don’t tell me I should respectfully call him President?  Impossible, I will not be afraid just because of this.

“I just called you…PERVERTED! OLD! MAN! ”  I said it resolutely without missing a word.  s.h.i.+t!  Screw death, why should I be afraid of you?

“Pu…Hahaha~~~!  Oi!  Michita, although his spirit is not even a sliver of Lin Fan’s, this defiant att.i.tude of his is definitely similar to that of his father’s.”  The perverted old man laughed suddenly… so, he’s not angry?

“Right, in this world, only that brat Lin Fan dared to call you a perverted old man to your face.  Even so…  Haa~~even his son addresses you as such.  Can’t you just change your perverted nature?  Even though your morals are good, and you have not committed any crimes of indecency..”

“Ha~~?  Of course my morals are good, furthermore, I am not perverted…  I mentioned this multiple times, I am observing their breathing pattern.”

Observing their breathing?  Even if that’s the case, from the time you met us until now, how many times have you checked Nagisa’s breathing pattern?  Could it even be that Nagisa was sick?

“Then why did you smile so lewdly just now?”

As expected of the Headmaster, he hit the nail on the head!

“Ugh…  Hey!  Why are you people still here?  Slacking off from your duties, are you?  Hurry and get back to work.”  The perverted old man could not find any excuses, so he vented all his frustration on the hospital personnel that were still in the room.

All the high-up personnel scrambled out of the fatty’s office, after receiving the perverted old man’s rebuke, without a hint of complaint…  It seems like this perverted old man’s authority must be rather great.

“Okay, it’s fine, little girl, you don’t need to repay me with anything.  Just promise me you will take good care of your dad.”

He really deserved the t.i.tle of perverted old man…  Can’t you just talk normally and look at the girl’s face instead of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s?  Although at the start… I also stared at her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, but I didn’t look with perversion as you did, right?

d.a.m.n it!  I really wanted to viciously give this shameless and perverted old man a good scolding!  I have never felt such a strong urge to vomit before… but against this unique old man… the urge just came naturally.

“Thank you, Mr. President.”  Nagisa once again bowed, she can actually forgive the unruly behaviour of this perverted old man? …Haaa~~ Forget it, since the person in question did not complain, then I shouldn’t say anything.

—————————— Patient Ward

“Oh, Nagi-chan, you came… this… these people are…”

A man lay on the bed, ashen-faced and lifeless, his eyes filled with suffering and determination.  He first looked at Nagisa and smiled, then showed a face of cautious surprise when we followed in.

“Father… this is the President, this is my Headmaster… and… this is… Lin Xiang.”  Nagisa stuttered somewhat when she mentioned my name.

“Lin Xiang?!  You are Lin Xiang?”  Nagisa’s father gave his attention not to the President, but to my name?  What is happening?  In addition, he was also staring intently at me.

“Uh… that’s me… is there a problem?”  Faced with the intense scrutiny of Nagisa’s father, my whole body felt uneasy…

Nagisa’s father merely nodded with appreciation, “So it’s you?  Mhmm~~ Not bad, you have a righteous aura about you.  No wonder you were willing to unconditionally help Nagisa.”

“Uh… I don’t quite understand.”

“Actually… it’s just… my daughter… she… ”

“Dad!  Do you know?  I brought along the President.  Why don’t you greet him?  The President will be the one who is going to cure your illness.”  Nagisa’s dad was interrupted suddenly by the embarra.s.sed Nagisa.

Looks like she was hoping for the President to cure her father first~~~ What a good daughter.

“Oh?  The President?  Please excuse me, because of some things on my mind, I forgot to offer a greeting when you entered, only… you… why did you agree to help such an ordinary commoner like me?  If I remember correctly, you are the renowned medical saint.”

“Ha~~ Regardless of my t.i.tle, I am just a normal old man…”

That’s right, just a normal perverted old man.  I added on an extra line in my heart.  Regarding this old man, I really felt like puking.

“…The truth is, your daughter has done the hospital a huge favor and so, to express my thanks, I have come to personally help cure you of your illness.”

“Oh?  My girl has even provided the hospital with a huge favor?”  Nagisa’s father directed his gaze at Nagisa, hoping to get an answer out of her.

“About that… Dad, that doctor… He has been put behind bars.”

“Really?  I have long thought of leaving this hospital but, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he wouldn’t allow it.  Hahaha~~ This really makes me very happy! Wait.  Daughter, he went to jail… don’t tell me you… ”  Nagisa’s father revealed a face of dread after talking up to this point.

“No, never, that doctor did not succeed… you don’t have to worry…  Lin Xiang and the others are the ones who helped me… they got hold of evidence of that doctor’s wrongdoing and had him sent to jail.”

“Oh~~~ it is fortunate that you are fine… President, Headmaster, Lin Xiang, your kindness is too great, I, Yorikawa Naohito, will never forget what you have done for the rest of my life.”

“Okay, it’s not too late to say your thanks after I cure your illness, for now, lie down.  You might feel some pain later on but it will be over very fast.”  The perverted old man yawned a few times.  It seems he is tired of listening to the patient’s grat.i.tude after hearing it so many times from other patients.

After listening to the perverted old man, Uncle Naohito did not get angry but instead lay down quickly.  From the looks of it, he really hopes to be cured as soon as possible.

“Mmm~~ Then…”  The perverted old man closed his eyes while he spoke, inhaling deeply, then he slowly opened up his arms, chanting an incantation… following which, I saw Uncle Naohito being enveloped by a green light.  He began floating in mid-air… the expression on his face alternating between discomfort and ease.

Nagisa’s small hands were firmly grasping mine, her vision was locked on her father and her expression also changed in accordance to his.

————————

About five minutes had pa.s.sed when Uncle Naohito slowly descended onto the bed, his forehead was drenched with sweat.

The perverted old man was also sweating a little.  He slowly opened his eyes and said, with a smile which seemed to laugh, “To heal your disfigured lungs back to their original state was no simple matter…  However, your illness has been cured.  You only have to recuperate for a few days in order to be back in full health.  Later on, I will have a nurse bring you the Éguilles Gra.s.s, you just have to eat it to remove the discomfort in your chest.”

“Hey, perverted old-… uh… President… if you are talking about Éguilles Gra.s.s, I have it right here, no need to trouble the nurse.”  I took out the Éguilles Gra.s.s in my pocket while saying.

But who could have guessed, that the moment part of the Éguilles Gra.s.s was revealed, the perverted old man would tightly grab onto my right hand.  His expression was as if he had seen a naked, beautiful, young lady.  That is to say, he was extremely excited.

“Let go… Let me go… you perverted old man…”  I used force to try to throw him off, but this pervert was still firmly grabbing onto my arm, rendering me helpless.

“Oi, Onion Head, what are you doing?  It can’t be… don’t tell me your other s.e.xual preferences that were kept hidden somewhere in you have finally awoken?”

Headmaster… Are you serious in what you said?

“Indeed~~~”  After a long pause, the perverted old man finally opened his mouth, looked at my hands and nodded, “It is Indeed the Centenaire Éguilles Gra.s.s…  I really was shocked for a moment there… ”

Oh~~~ So it was the gra.s.s in my hand?  I had really believed for a moment there that it was as the Headmaster had said, a different s.e.xual preference had awoken…  If it was really like that… too scary, even just thinking about it… but… Centenaire Éguilles Gra.s.s?  What does this mean?

“Oi, perverted old man, I will give you the gra.s.s, just let me go this instant.”

The perverted old man realised his loss of self-control after what I said…  Although he already has no kind of self-control normally, but the realization of touching a guy’s hand still resulted in some awkwardness.  He laughed sheepishly, “So sorry, kid, I got too excited.  Do you know how difficult it is to get the gra.s.s in your hand right now?”

“Nope.” Who would know how hard it is to obtain this gra.s.s?  It was randomly plucked from beside a brook.  Furthermore, Yalide even said he used it often to make tea.

“Haa~~  It is useless to explain it to you.  You just have to know that this gra.s.s you have is equivalent to twenty-three stalks of the Éguilles Gra.s.s the hospital had just received.”

Hearing the perverted old man’s explanation, I can’t help but be shocked.  “What!?  Twenty-three stalks!?  I say, old man, is your brain temporarily malfunctioning due to an overuse of magic just now?  You actually said that this small gra.s.s here is comparable to your twenty-three stalks of the same species plant?”

“You are not in the alchemic field, of course you wouldn’t know.  The medical effects, as well as the many other uses of the Centenaire Éguilles Gra.s.s, exceeds that of normal Éguilles Gra.s.s by more than a hundred-fold.  Moreover, yours is one that has grown for more than two hundred years…  Hey, where did you find this?  If I recall properly, this kind of stuff can only be found in the depths of the Demon World.”
