The Legacy System

Eric:" I have an assignment for you!"

Siblings:" What should we do for you Master?" replied the siblings, who clearly were tired of the work at the restaurant.

​​

Seeing their readiness Eric was a bit surprised, but anyway continued with his calm look,

Eric:" Well actually it's not really difficult, you will just have to find some good actors for me, or more precisely some impostors.

I need 3-4 of them but they shouldn't know who they are working for, or see your faces. You have 2 hours of time.

When you find them, and make all the preparations I will tell you what to do from there."

The siblings were obviously startled and surprised since they didn't understand what Eric had in mind, but they acknowledged their assignment and left.

Seeing them leave the place, Eric was in deep thoughts for a few moments, the mission he gave to Kirigaya was a wonderful idea for himself too.

But at the moment he couldn't leave this place. While strength was important, having a foundation, and making money were just as important.

That was why he had to find a way to make them both possible, and then he got a great idea. While it was dangerous and crazy it was possible.

While in some places the war was more apparent and the enemies are known, this didn't mean that inside big cities like Tokyo everything was a flowery field.

There were a lot of gangs, and underworld forces out there, the Yakuza were only the ones that had more history, rules, and fame.

But there were other underworld organizations that had almost the same power, or perhaps more powerful than them, just because of their dirty business.

While Yakuza dealt more with protection and settlements in Japan, there were some foreign criminal organizations that dealt with the most precious material in the market, drugs.

Eric didn't care much about them, because in his opinion the buyers were just as responsible as the sellers, but they were good extra points.

He didn't like going out of his way to harm innocent people, and if he did the attention of the police and society would be too tense.

But if he went and killed those people that the society called scourges, he could not only clean the city a bit, but he would also have a good harvest every night.

Of course, he didn't plan to wipe them out in a short time, and frankly, that was impossible to even think about at his current level, they surely had some experts in their midst.

So that was clearly a no go, but it wasn't his intention either. In his eyes, these guys were his golden goose, or to be more precise it was his sheep farm.

Just like a good farmer he was, he would kill his sheep' in such a way that there were never too much, but at the same time never too little.

With the passage of time, he would surely attract attention, and a lot of trouble, but he welcomed them all, they were extra points after all.

Thinking up to here, he immediately sent a mental message to Daisuke and Shiro, to prepare him a file with all the information they had over such organizations.

When he was a little boy, he liked to read the stories about Robin Hood, or Batman, but now he would be like one of those, a vigilante of the city.

This kind of made him laugh because it was only him trying to gain benefits for himself. At that moment he thought, what if, even those guys did what they did, for their own benefit.

Well, that was useless thinking, he had much more important things to think about right now, like starting the chain of restaurants for example.

Thinking about this, he suddenly had a great idea about where should he open his next one, and since he was at it, he could have a little fun.

Kirigaya's restaurant was in Shinjuku district, which was a rather good economical district, Eric wanted to start at least 3 other restaurants in Tokyo, in less than 2 months.

The first would be in Shibuya, the second in Akihabara, the third and the last would be in Aoyama. Like this, he could start controlling the four districts.

He wasn't just expanding his chain of restaurants just as a business idea, those were his roots in those districts.

With the connections and the money he had in his hands at the moment, these four restaurants seemed like a feasible idea.

The reason he thought he would have some fun was that the place where he worked before was in the Shibuya district, and it was a great place for his restaurant.

Since it was part of his district it was clearly under Daisuke's turf, so even if that guy didn't accept willingly, he would accept forcibly.

It was his daughter's fault for messing so much with him, there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't let that become a heart demon, could he?

Auspicious works shouldn't get delayed, so he immediately sent Kirigaya another instruction, to go there and buy the place, and tell him when he could sign the contract.

Now that this was already dealt with, he decided to go and continue his training, and cultivation. He didn't have time to lose.

With these thoughts in mind, he got out of the restaurant and went to search for a place where he could train in peace.

It took him a bit of time to find a small park that seemed to be empty, and start with his training first. In two hours he had already completed the daily mission by 500%.

Naturally, the benefits he got and the points were much needed at this time. He could have continued longer, but it was at that time that he got a call from the siblings.

They had completed their assignment and those four impostors were ready to take the job. Of course, the payment depended on what they had to do.

Hearing that, Eric said calmly, as he wiped the sweat from his face,

Eric:" Well their job is easy, they will have to act as media people in front of Takeshiba Aika, hand her over an envelope, and say that they are doing that for the respect towards Takeshiba family.

Warn them that they aren't allowed to look what's inside the envelope, and not say anything more than that, otherwise, the fishes will have a new company.

As for their payment I don't care, you set the price, but I want total success."

The siblings could kind of understand Eric's plan, after all, they had dealt with cheating and extortion their whole life.

They just didn't understand their Master's obsession with Takeshiba Aika, why was he so after her. What was the need to mess with her?

It wasn't like he didn't have any money and needed to extort her, so there must be something else. But it wasn't their business, so they just acknowledged the assignment, and did what were told.

When he hung up the phone, Eric received a message from Shiro, he had asked him to do a check on all the people around him, and the staff at the restaurant.

And he couldn't help but show a weird smile as he saw the information on that file. It seemed like his Tatsuya-chan was too curious about, maybe he should pay her a visit soon.

All these days, they hadn't communicated much, and Eric told her that he couldn't enter the classroom, and meet with Yoshida Gina, as long as that roach was there.

In fact, Eric could have dealt with him long ago, but the truth was that he let him around because he was a good reason to bunk the classes.

He had much more important things to do right now, so university and the two ladies had to wait. It wasn't like that roach would be able to touch Yoshida Gina anyway.

Now that he thought about it, it had been some time since he last heard from her, or the trouble she was trying to create between him and that roach.

Well anyway, he had a feeling that he would be able to hear from her soon. At the moment he was walking towards his house, he had an urgent need for a shower.

Everything seemed quiet and normal, when suddenly four black cars, surrounded him and blocked every way of retreat.

8 men dressed in black suits, that looked like electric poles with muscles, and a military cut got out of the cars, blocking every angle.

Eric just stared at them to get in position but didn't seem to be frightened. He seemed to ignore all of them, as they were just obstacles in his way, he looked towards the car in front, and said,

Eric:" What the meaning of this Ai—Miss Takeshiba!? I thought you already made it clear that you would take the large path, and I would walk on the narrow path."

Seeing Eric ignore them, and even talk like that to their Young Miss, the guards seemed to be enraged, and one of them couldn't hold himself back anymore as he jumped towards Eric.

From the moment he saw their stance and moves Eric knew these guys were trained, most probably they were ex-military.

It was obvious from their haircut, and their teamwork, not to mention the bloodlust and killing intent they had accumulated.

But Eric seemed to be angry on the outside, but he was elated inside. Who would have thought that Takeshiba Aika would have brought him some punching bags!

With the face of an angry and hurt animal, Eric took a turn towards the jumping guard, slid to the left dodging his punch, and then elbowing him in the ribs.

The guard fell down on the ground like a bag of potatoes, screaming in pain. But he didn't seem to be able to get up from there.

Everything happened in one single moment, the other 7 guards couldn't understand what was going on. It seemed like an illusion, but then…
