Chapter 456 - Saying His Goodbyes (II) (2/2)
”Grandmaster told me to tell you that you can stay and finish your schooling here if you want,” Kyle said.
”What? Really?” Sayuri said in surprise.
”Yes,” Kyle replied, ”It's only another two and a half more years after all. The company isn't going anywhere and it's not like you're disconnected from the ninja world. Though you are to report to my Master at least once every two months.”
”Er, why is that? Are you part of the Koga Clan as well?”
”Heck no,” Kyle answered with a laugh, ”We're not even a clan. There's just me and Master Kato now. Father and your Grandfather seem to be very close friends, so he asked Father to take care of you should you decide to stay.”
”Ah, so it's just an informal thing,” Sayuri said in understanding, ”Like visiting family.”
”Yeah, though in this case, it's a Ninja family,” Kyle replied.
”I heard about the Kato clan. There's really just the two of you left?”
”Well, not really. There are many side branches but no direct descendant of pure blood,” Kyle said.
In the ninja world, 'pure blood' meant that the person wasn't associated with any other ninja clan and did not mean he had to be blood-related. Since Kyle had no ties with any ninja clan, he is considered a 'pure blood', even though he was adopted.
”It's a pity. The clan used to be so huge,” Sayuri said with a sigh.
The Kato clan was one of the clans she admired during her studies.
”No plans to revive it?” she asked curiously.
”Well, I don't quite think I can repopulate the entire clan all by myself,” Kyle said with a straight face.
”Why not?” Sayuri answered, with an equally straight face, ”It's not like you're the one who's going to be carrying the babies. All you need is 100 concubines and within one generation, the clan will be huge again.”
Looking at Kyle up and down, ”And I doubt you're going to find it difficult to find that 100 concubines.”
Kyle gave a slow, sexy smile and leaned closer to her, asking, ”So, are you going to be one of those 100 concubines?”
Sayuri snorted and pushed him away ”You wish. Stop using that Seduction Art on me. Won't work.”
Kyle snapped his fingers, ”It was worth a try.”
”So many things make sense now!” Sayuri said as she got up to go to the kitchen. Getting a hand towel and wetting it, she proceeded to wipe the sticky stain on the table.
”Such as?”
”The way you could disappear so quickly whenever Sarah came into view,” Sayuri said.
”Ah, yes. Sarah,” Kyle grimaced.
”Are you going to see her before you go?”
Kyle stared at Sayuri, hardly believing that she had asked that.
