Jinno Takashi imdiately gave a cold order, "All of you, get him! Take this brat down for . I'm going to skin him alive and torture him properly so he knows the price of deceiving , Jinno Takashi!"
As soon as Jinno Takashi spoke, most of the thugs who had been standing outside rushed in and charged toward Hikari.
At the side, Jinno Sumire quickly warned, "Hikari-kun, be careful. These are professional enforcers raised by our family. They're very strong. Very—"
Before she could finish, before Jinno Takashi's smug expression had even fully ford, before he could enjoy the sight of Hikari being crushed into a dead dog, before he could even think up lines to mock him—
Those professional thugs rushing at Hikari began dropping to the ground one after another.
Honestly, Jinno Takashi couldn't believe one person could knock them down that fast. For a split second, he even suspected these so-called professionals were putting on an act for him.
But the way their foreheads slamd down with full force, shattering the tiles, the blood splashing out, proved that no acting in this world could look that real.
Hikari cut them down like harvesting wheat. The speed shocked everyone present.
Jinno Takashi was stunned.
Naoya, Jinno Sumire's nominal husband, stood there with a blank face.
Even Jinno Sumire, who had been sowhat prepared, had her lips slightly parted and her beautiful eyes wide open.
Under their shocked gazes, Hikari knocked down dozens of professional thugs in just a few seconds.
"Family Head Jinno, your turn," Wiping the blood from his fist, Hikari grinned and walked toward Jinno Takashi, whose face was now full of fear.
"D-Don't… don't co over!"
"I'm telling you… he… he has a gun!"
"Don't co over!"
Seeing Hikari step closer, Jinno Takashi, who had just been so confident and sure of victory, completely lost his composure and started threatening him.
The personal bodyguard standing beside him cursed inwardly.
He had planned to wait until Hikari ca a little closer before secretly pulling out his gun and putting a hole in him.
And now his biggest trump card had been exposed by his idiot employer.
But after witnessing Hikari's terrifying combat ability, he didn't dare hesitate.
He imdiately reached to his waist and pulled out his hidden handgun, ready to show Hikari what "tis have changed" ant.
However, when he raised both hands to aim, he realized his palms were empty. He was gripping nothing but air. The gun that should have been there had vanished.
"My… my gun?", The bodyguard was dumbfounded. A gust of wind had passed, and the gun in his hand disappeared. Was this magic?
Hikari was already at his side. He kicked him down, casually fired a shot, and watched blood spray as he smiled.
"Haven't you heard? Beyond seven steps, the gun is faster. Within seven steps, the gun is fast and accurate. But that's only if you actually have a gun."
As he spoke, he pressed the barrel against Jinno Takashi's head.
Feeling the cold, black muzzle pressed tightly against his forehead, and seeing his bodyguard lying beside him with a hole in his head in a pool of blood, Jinno Takashi's legs went weak. He slid off his chair and knelt on the ground smoothly, begging for rcy.
"Hik… Hikari-kun, I was wrong! Please spare !"
He begged desperately. He had never imagined Hikari's fighting ability would be this monstrous. So many n, even with a gun, couldn't beat him.
If he had known Hikari was this capable, letting him marry into the Jinno family wouldn't have been impossible.
'Damn it! I should have secretly killed him earlier!'
Though his thoughts were a ss, his mouth kept pleading.
"Hikari-kun… I truly know I was wrong. Please be magnanimous and spare ."
"One call of father-in-law ans a lifeti as father-in-law. I didn't treat you badly before, did I? Please, leave alive…"
"I'm willing to let Sumire be with you. You two can inherit the Jinno family together. That's fine…"
"Please spare . Sumire and I have a good relationship. She can't be without her father. Ai can't be without her grandfather!"
"Spare . I truly know I was wrong. I'll kowtow to you. Bang, bang, bang!"
Looking at Jinno Takashi begging nonstop, Hikari shook his head with a smile, "You don't know you were wrong. You just know you're about to die."
"NOOOO!", Hearing what sounded like the trigger being pulled, Jinno Takashi scread. Yellow liquid soaked through his pants.
Bang!
A dull sound rang out. The back of Jinno Takashi's head hurt. His vision went black. He collapsed, his whole face plunging into the puddle of urine he had just released.
Hikari ultimately did not kill him.
After all, he was Jinno Sumire's father. He already knew her depths, and she had also learned his length. So he didn't want to execute Jinno Takashi in front of her.
Putting the gun away, Hikari walked over to Jinno Sumire, who was leaning against the wall.
Perhaps because of what just happened, she was angry, anxious, and shaken. Her body felt weak as she leaned there.
He held her slender waist and supported her full, soft body upright.
"Hikari-kun…", As soon as she felt the warmth of his hand, Jinno Sumire dropped all restraint and face and threw herself into his arms.
"Aunt Sumire, are you okay?", he asked.
"I'm fine!", She shook her head and looked at him with concern, "Hikari-kun, are you okay?"
Though he had just taken down those n like slicing vegetables, it had still been many against one. She couldn't help worrying.
Hikari waved his hand, "I'm fine. How strong my body is, Aunt Sumire should know best. You understand better than they do. Of course I'm fine."
"You're joking at a ti like this!", Hearing the hidden aning in his words, her small face turned red as she glared at him.
Then she wrapped her arms around his neck and sincerely thanked him, "Hikari-kun, thank you for coming to save Auntie. Thank you so much!"
After saying that, she directly kissed the corner of his lips.
Feeling her fiery emotions after surviving disaster, Hikari could only respond.
Jinno Takashi was still lying on the floor in his own urine.
Naoya, her nominal husband, was still curled up in a corner.
Watching the handso young man and the glamorous mature woman embrace tightly and kiss passionately, his face was blank, silent.
He didn't even dare move, as if trying not to be noticed.
From the mont Hikari appeared, Naoya hadn't dared to speak. So Hikari and Jinno Sumire treated him like he didn't exist.
After kissing for quite a while, until Jinno Sumire was almost out of breath, she finally pulled away, panting.
Seeing the thin strand stretch between them in the air, Naoya's eyes were blank. No one knew what he was thinking, but deep inside were traces of intense resentnt.
Neither Hikari nor Jinno Sumire paid him any attention. They simply looked at the bodies of the thugs scattered across the floor.
Turning back, Hikari asked, "How do you want to handle this? Need my help, Aunt Sumire?"
She waved her hand, "No need. Just get my phone back for ."
He walked over to Jinno Takashi, took the phone from him, and handed it to her.
She quickly made a call. Soon, her trusted aides rushed over.
Entering the side hall and seeing the thugs lying everywhere, they were shocked.
Seeing Jinno Takashi lying in urine shocked them even more.
But before they could stare, Jinno Sumire gave orders.
They wasted no words and imdiately began carrying them out.
Several docunts were handed to her. After she signed them swiftly, the aides carried the thugs' bodies, along with Jinno Takashi and Naoya, out.
"Where will they be taken?", Hikari asked curiously.
Jinno Sumire's stunning face curved into a slight smile, blooming like peach blossoms, "To a ntal hospital. My husband who's been missing for years has gone insane and even passed the illness to my father, giving him dentia. His mind is gone, almost vegetative. He needs soone to care for him."
"Hikari-kun, sending them to the hospital is reasonable, right?"
Hikari nodded, "Mm, very reasonable. Aunt Sumire, you're really too kind."
"Thank you for the complint," she smiled. For those who had just tried to harm her, she felt no pity.
Though he felt it was still a bit conservative, he said nothing.
Because though she hadn't ntioned it, he had sharp eyes. He saw that among the papers she signed was an agreent transferring them from the ntal hospital to the crematorium after six months.
When a mature woman handles things, it really puts people at ease.
After chatting a bit with him, Jinno Sumire began directing matters that needed her attention after Jinno Takashi's disappearance.
Hikari sat beside her. On the surface, he looked like he was playing on his phone, but in reality, he was checking his system rewards.
[Ding! Host successfully thwarted Jinno Takashi's sche, saved the cold and elegant shrine beauty, and promoted the spirit of pure love!]
[Reward: Pure Love Points 200!]
[Ding! Host has once again saved the noble and aloof shrine beauty. Jinno Sumire's affection toward you has reached a certain threshold.]
[Reward: Pure Love Points 300!]
Looking at the notifications, Hikari checked his points record.
Though this ti's reward wasn't much, since returning to the countryside he had received many scattered rewards. Combined with recent gains, he had accumulated over five thousand Pure Love Points.
Seeing so many points, he calculated. After deducting daily stat upgrades and buying pure love items, he still had plenty left. At least enough for a hundred or two hundred draws.
He imdiately activated the roulette draw.
Having saved up so much, he didn't hesitate and went straight for one hundred ten-draw pulls.
[Ding! Consud 1000 Pure Love Points! One hundred roulette draws in progress.]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you obtained: "Kidney-Treasure Brand Nutritional Drink" x1!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you obtained: "Kidney-Treasure Brand Nutritional Drink" x1!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you obtained: "Kidney-Treasure Brand Nutritional Drink" x1!]
[Ding! …]
As expected, most of the rewards were the guaranteed Kidney-Treasure Nutritional Drinks.
It wasn't that they were useless. Sotis they were very useful. But when sothing isn't rare anymore, it loses its value.
And besides the drinks, most of the guaranteed ten-draw items were small useless props like "Super Windproof Lighter" or "Jump Shoes That Let You Hop Three ters on One Foot But Only on One Foot".
In short, it was similar to his previous draws. The first hundred pulls gave almost nothing.
Not completely useless, just completely unusable.
Looking at the pile of trash, Hikari gritted his teeth, "Another hundred ten-draw pulls!"
[Ding! Consud 1000 Pure Love Points! One hundred roulette draws in progress…]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you obtained: "Kidney-Treasure Brand Nutritional Drink" x1!],
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you obtained: "Kidney-Treasure Brand Nutritional Drink" x1!]
[Ding! …]
Again, countless Kidney-Treasure Nutritional Drinks and a pile of junk items and skills.
But just as he was about to give up, a flash of golden light suddenly appeared.
'A golden pull?'
"It dropped!"
His eyes widened slightly. His small consciousness-hand trembled as it reached toward the golden light.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you obtained: "Divine Ability · Dharma Heaven and Earth"!]
