Haruki Enjou was currently sitting with his father in a private room. Haruki Enjou’s father’s name was Haruki Jun.Haruki Jun lived in the same city, but his house was quite far from Haruki Enjou’s home. Upon hearing that his son had taken in a stranger whose origins were unknown, Haruki Jun went to Haruki Enjou’s house two days after Shinra Kazan’s departure."Enjou! I really can’t believe it—how could you possibly give our family name to a child whose origins you don’t even know!" said Haruki Jun.“What’s the problem, Dad? Is it wrong for me to take in that poor child and give him our family name?” asked Haruki Enjou."Wrong? You’re asking if it’s wrong? Of course it’s all wrong, Enjou!" Haruki Jun stood up, speaking harshly to Haruki Enjou.“Do you think I’ll accept that mysterious adopted son of yours as my grandson? No way! I won’t acknowledge him—remember that well!” said Haruki Jun with a furious expression.“It’s up to you, Father, whether you want to acknowledge Haruki as you

The next morning, Aoi Mei and Kenzou Hiyori returned to the Eagle Eye Sect. Aoi Mei asked repeatedly about Shinra Kazan’s whereabouts because she couldn’t see him.In the end, Aoi Mei returned to the Eagle Eye Sect without saying goodbye to Shinra Kazan, while Shinra Kazan himself deliberately stayed in his room because he didn’t want the hassle of dealing with a child.“Here are your supplies for a month, and starting tomorrow, Daigo’ll accompany you. Do you have any objections?” said Kenzou Arata.Shinra Kazan simply nodded; in truth, this was the opportunity he’d been waiting for most—to practice his breathing with no one watching over him.Shinra Kazan would only learn to read from books that Takao Renshi would bring to Shinra Kazan’s room.Takao Renshi would teach Shinra Kazan for less than half a day, and for the rest of the time, Shinra Kazan would be on his own.Shinra Kazan would use this time alone to practice his breathing techniques and to search for potions that could acc

Smoke poured out of Shinra Kazan’s mouth, ears, and nose, and the veins on his forehead, neck, arms, and legs became visible.After that, Shinra Kazan felt his body become incredibly light. “Phew… I finally absorbed it!” Shinra Kazan said, breathing a sigh of relief.Shinra Kazan walked to the backyard and sat cross-legged there alone. He took a deep breath until his lungs felt full, then exhaled slowly.“The physical strength in my body is increasing even though I don’t have Ki yet. At this rate, I’ll be able to lift a weight three times heavier than my body!” Shinra Kazan muttered.Shinra Kazan repeated this over and over until he got used to it, but he planned to keep practicing this breathing technique until he had truly mastered it and possessed physical strength within his body—even without Ki.Shinra Kazan didn’t sleep a wink all night, and early in the morning he was already in the yard.“Good morning, Young Master!” said Daigo Renji, yawning and rubbing his eyes.“Good mornin

Shinra Kazan’s training routine remained the same for months on end; the only difference was the volume of his training.Usually, Shinra Kazan was told to run five to ten laps, but the number increased every month.As a result, Shinra Kazan could already lift his body with one hand and raise and lower himself with great ease.Shinra Kazan and Kenzou Arata are currently sitting in front of the house. Kenzou Arata asks Shinra Kazan to read and write every morning.It wasn’t without reason that Kenzou Arata asked Shinra Kazan to do this; Kenzou simply wanted to avoid arousing the suspicion that he was actually always training Shinra.“Kenzou-san, am I bothering you?” Masaki Raikou came over to Kenzou Arata.“Not at all, Chairman Kenzou! Come sit with us here,” Kenzou Arata invited.Masaki Raikou looked at Shinra Kazan, who was reading a book in the chair next to Kenzou Arata; Masaki Raikou’s sharp gaze made Shinra Kazan lift his head and meet he’s gaze.“Kenzou! I don’t understand why yo
