Chapter 240 - The King.
Satoru looked at Ryan from the bottom of his eye, then let out a sigh.
"Haha, sorry. You should not worry about these things," He placed his hand on Ryan's shoulder, "Come on. Let us solve the problem in front of us first."
"What problem?" Ryan asked. He did not want to continue the topic of love with someone so much older than him. Adults are different than teens after all.
"Eh, did you even forget the problem you created? Such irresponsible guy you are. Now I see why Naomi is not being stubborn on taking your relationship to a higher level." Satoru nodded with a frown.
Ryan sighed, "I do not even care at this point." He muttered.
"The Watts." Satoru turned serious, "Although you were just protecting Naomi... Or she was protecting you, you fought with him.? And believe it or not, the Watts are not great people,"
"They are going to be your in-laws soon.." Ryan looked away after saying that.
Satoru ignored his words and continued, "Even if it was his son's fault, that Wade would definitely blame the other person. He would use the political power and money to get things to work his way,"
".... Typical rich people. They have everything,"
"You think so?" Satoru looked at him and raised his eyebrow, "Look at me and then think twice,"
"Yeah... There are some unfortunate people,"
"Well.. I have not met with them either, Satomi went and discussed the marriage matter but I know one thing for sure," He raised his eyes, "America's top Royal family... Is no joke."
"Seriously? They are America's top, why do they want Naomi? How could they just accept Satomi-san's proposal?"
"Uh.. looks like you do not know.."
"What?"
"Nothing. I would like to keep you in the dark for more time,"
"Do not. Tell me what,"
"They want Naomi because, believe it, their son, Allen Watts is–"
"In love with Naomi? Great." Ryan completed for Satoru, "That was the last thing I wanted to happen but that was the most obvious thing to happen too."
"How?" Satoru asked just to hear Ryan's answer.
"I mean, look at Naomi. She is.. she is super h– he is gorgeous."
"Good, you did not complete it. I would have not liked it."
"I know," Ryan felt embarrassed, "It is just that, talking with you feels like I am talking with my brother.."
"Oh~" He raised his eyebrow again, "Brother huh?"
"Naomi is beautiful, she is pretty, has a body anyone would lust over. And look at that egoistic Allen Fucking Watts. Uh, he is not on the ground. Of course, obviously, he would fall for Naomi... Or at least for her body."
"That was bold of you," Satoru replied, "I do not mind it though. But if this is the way you describe Naomi to your friends or other people–"
"I am a loner. I do not have any friends. Do not worry,"
"Watts.. are just like us.. control electricity and power voltage. Their Traits are related to electric power."
"I see."
"And if their only son got married to Naomi... Of course, they would reproduce a wonderful offspring."
For some reason, Ryan felt his heart tightening. His fists clenched harder, blood fists activated on their own, his eye started glowing.
"Whoa.. are you jealous?"
"I just hate the thought of Allen even touching Naomi. That is, that is just pure disgusting. Why? Why would they come for Naomi only? There are other girls out there!"
"But there would be another girl who is the daughter of Satoru and Satomi Mitsuda." Satoru replied proudly, "I am not bragging but.. we were once considered the strongest. We still are.. I guess."
"The strongest? Is Naomi from a Royal family too?"
Satoru started laughing at that silly question. From a Royal family? That was the dumbest question anyone had ever asked Satoru.
"What now...?" Ryan seemed annoyed.
"Haha, okay, okay... Hahaha!" he could not calm down. Satoru grabbed his stomach.
"Why do you keep laughing without telling me what it is?"
"Sorry, sorry." Satoru calmed down at last, "But your question was..."
"What?"
"How do you think we built this mansion? How do you think we became so rich?"
"....you own the Academy? You own some another business..."
"Where did the money to build this Academy come from? What business?"
"I.. I do not know.."
"From fights. From battles. From Leveling games."
"Do not tell me, you own a betting business?!"
"Of course not. Of course, our mainstream income is from the Academy and its students but.. we earn from the government too. For keeping Japan safe."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Tell me," Satoru took a step forward, "Do you ever go in a jungle, find the lion's den, go to him and ask him, 'Who is the king of the jungle?' what do you think he would think? How do you think he would react?"
"....He would ignore me? Or.. eat me? Like, whatever. That is such an obvious thing, who would not know that?"
"Right? Who would not know him? Who would not know who the king is? Who would not know what a lion is?"
"Yeah.. who would not?"
"Then imagine. The property you are standing on is a jungle... Or just consider, I will give you a better one. Consider the land of Japan you are standing on.. yeah?"
"Yeah."
"The land of Japan you are standing on is the jungle; the mansion you are in is the lion's den, and consider.. the lion.. is me."
"...." Ryan was left dumbfounded.
"And you are asking me if we are from a Royal family. As if asking the emperor if you are from one of those king's family."
"No way... Y- your family.. the Mitsudas are.. Japan's top Royal family?!"
Satoru did not reply. Instead, he kept a smile constant on his face, "You really did not know it?" he felt relieved somehow.
At the start, he thought Ryan was with Naomi for using her. She is rich, from a royal family, etc. but when he realized that Ryan does not know about Naomi's family but he loves her and is her boyfriend.. respect, faith, trust in Ryan just went skyrocketing.
"Who are you kidding? Your wife just insulted you," Ryan giggled. But soon realized, it was the foolest thing he could do.
"A real king, bows down only to his queen." Satoru replied, "And when two kings unite, an empire is formed. That is what Satomi plans on doing."
