Chapter 1681: The Aftermath 2 (1/2)

When Haru taught Yuri about the happiness of a woman, Shin talked with his grandparents about what had happened in the academy, telling them about his battle against the devil, Haru's support, and how grateful he was when Haru stopped him from killing people for the first time.

”Ho?” Merlin was surprised and asked, ”This Kasugano-kun, you say that he's powerful?”

Shin nodded and said, ”Yes, if I'm not wrong, as long as it is fire magic, he can make it disappear without a trace.”

Merlin and Melinda were surprised, hearing Shin's words. After all, both of them knew very well that fire magic was the fiercest element among magics, and it represented destruction. Even though both of them could only use a barrier to protect themselves from this magic, Haru could erase the fire magic without a trace, which surprised them.

”Do you know how he has done it?” Merlin asked.

Shin thought for a while and tried to remember a memory from his previous life. Still, after all, he was only a normal salaryman, and he also wasn't a good student either, so he didn't know how Haru could erase fire magic like what Haru did. ”I don't know.”

Merlin was surprised, but at the same time, he was also happy since he thought that his grandson had met his match. After all, he also knew how strong his grandson was, or rather his grandson was a monster. Because of that, he was afraid that this guy would be lonely or something, but it seemed that he didn't need to worry about that.

”Shin, is Kasugano-kun on your mouth is Kasugano Haruka?” Melinda asked curiously.

”Huh?” Shin was surprised and asked, ”Do you know Kasugano, Grandma?” He looked at Melinda and wondered how his grandma knew Haru.

”....”

Melinda and Merlin looked at each other and sighed since even though their grandson was all-powerful, this guy had one or two screws loose on his head, right?

”You know... you should learn more about the world, and Kasugano Haruka in your mouth is a powerful youth.” Melinda looked at Shin and said, ”You might be powerful with your magic, but your mind... even though I don't want to say, you're very naive, Shin.”

”Me? Naive?” Shin was dumbfounded, and as an adult in his previous life, he felt complicated when he was called naive by his grandmother, but he had to admit that even if he combined both of his age in his previous life and this life, both of his grandparents were still older than him.

”Kasugano Haruka.” Merlin nodded and then looked at Shin. ”Shin, you're good, but I also agree with your grandmother that you're still far behind him.”

Shin frowned and asked, ”Just who is he?” After all, in his mind, Haru was only a student with a normal face who was lucky to have many girls around him. Still, after the battle with the devil, he also knew that Haru was more about his appearance, but he still didn't know much about him, and if his grandparents didn't tell him, he might be clueless and didn't know anything.

”Kasugano Haruka, he's one of the newcomers on the Els. With just a few months, he can create a business empire that didn't even lose to anyone in this continent, and he is also the youngest member of council in the Els, and if there isn't a problem, the position of the president of the Els will be his.” Melinda had a serious expression on his face and said, ”You should know that in the Els, it is all about ability. Without an ability, no one can even rise to the top, unlike in this country where everything is hereditary.” In her mind, she also had a good opinion about Els. After all, she was also a commoner, and someone who could raise the top was someone with a talent, not in this kingdom, where the nobility was everything, but she also knew that the world had always been unfair, so she didn't say much about her prejudice.

”EHHHHHH???!!!!” Shin was in shock and asked, ”He's so amazing?” He didn't expect that someone whose face was so ordinary could forget easily on the crowd would be someone so amazing.

”He's very amazing.” Merlin nodded and said, ”You should also thank him since he has helped you.”

”Help me? You mean defeating the devil?” Shin raised his eyebrow and said, ”But I can defeat that devil.” He had to admit that Haru was amazing and all, but he didn't lose to anyone in terms of power.

”No, it is about helping you not to be involved with the kingdom and stopping you from killing Kurt,” Merlin said, but as expected, Shin was confused by his words.

Looking at Shin, Merlin and Melinda sighed and felt a bit tired somehow.

”Yes, I'm grateful that he has stopped me from killing Kurt, but what does it mean by stopping me from being involved with the kingdom?” Shin was confused and didn't understand.

”Shin, you should know that even though Kurt is a devil, he's also a noble, and if you kill him, then you might receive revenge from Kurt's family. Worse case, they might send you an assassin or poison your food,” Melinda said with a serious expression.

”Is it that serious?” Shin asked with a frown, but if it was an assassin, he believed he could defeat them after all.
