Kuzu Inou【Ondo Wo Kaeru Mono】 No Ore Ga Musou Suru Made - Chapter 83 Kiris.h.i.+ma Family 1 Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune

83 Kiris.h.i.+ma Family 1 Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune

Please raise your head, Merisan. Theres no need for you to apologize like that

The previous capital that was destroyed during the great war, and in exchange for that, the center city Imperial Capital was newly established in Tokyo. Among the buildings in the Imperial Capital, there was a black skysc.r.a.per that stood out. Kurono Meria and Kurono Kagen.o.bu were in the office at the top floor which is where the leader of the army is.
It was the room of Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune, the most important person of the Imperial Army who is appointed with the role of Commander, and also the founder of the world-leading munition corporation Kiris.h.i.+ma Corporation.

Sorry, Masa

Kurono, if even you apologize, it makes me feel regretful. I was the one who left my daughter in your care. Originally, its a parents duty to protect the child. From the beginning, I dont think of making you to carry such responsibility

No, Commander Kiris.h.i.+mathis occasion was a deplorable event of our school. I think that no matter how many times we apologize, it wont be enough since we made your daughter to go through such thing. We are really sorry

Saying that, Kurono Meria kept her head bowed. Then, Teihen High Schools princ.i.p.al, Kurono Kagen.o.bu stands up.

I have already received enough apologies. Above all, regarding this case, its also my fault that I didnt disclose the information about Kaname properly. If you have the information from the start, things may have changed. Anyway, please raise your head, Merisan. Youre making me troubled

Yes

Upon hearing that, Kurono Meria straightens herself silently.

In front of her, there is a mountain of doc.u.ments on the table, and a large man whos wearing the unique Imperial Army Leaders black uniform, Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune is standing beside the table. He is 195cm tall which is slightly lower than Kurono Kagen.o.bu, but still, his trained body happen to have the dignity as one of the top in the power of the state.

I heard that you obtained some important information on your side, butlets start from the reason why my daughter was kidnapped. I prefer it that way

The man begins the talk politely to the two of them.

Do you have a clue?

Ah, yes. And this is something that I must apologize to you two. Well, lets not talk while standing. Please have a seat

Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune said that, and suggested them to sit on the sofa. After making sure that they sat on the sofa, he opens his mouth slowly.

My third daughter, Kaname was the Extra Individual (EP) of the final stage of the Talent User Production Project, Project Number Six during the war. First, I should have told you that before she enrolled

Hearing that, Kurono Meria opens her eyes wide.

Project Number Sixthen, Kiris.h.i.+msan is as expected!

Hey, what do you mean by that?

Thats right. It looks like Merisan have already guessed it, butKaname possessed an artificial Talent. My Talent Divider was used as the original and was copied into her. Her two older sisters are the same too

The Extra Individual (EP)of the Talent User Production Project is the secretly tested subject. I have seen the numbers of subjects through doc.u.ments, but

Ah, thats right. Satsuki took the surgery when she was 11 in Project Number Four, while Setsuna took it when she was 7 in Project Number Five. And they manifested the Talent Divider. After that, at the final stage of Project Number Six, it was Kaname who took the surgery

That Habas research, huh. You let him touched your own daughters?

Ah. You can laugh all you want. At that time, I really believed that it was the best for my daughters. That in order to survive in this abnormal era, theres a need to obtain a strong Talent

Everyone would think so during the war

Upon hearing Kurono Merias words, Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune smiles slightly and nods silently.

But I realized my fault long after that. 9 Sites signed an agreement of inviolability, and the long war endedEven the opposing power signed a peace treaty and peace came to this era.
And yet, those girls chose to join the battlefield on their own. Thats all because they have power

Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamunes voice was filled with regret, and the two of them just listened to him silently.

I allowed them to hold such power. Ultimately, Level 5Kurono, I know that they wont stand a chance against you guys of the top level

I dont think it was useless

Haha, if Kurono say that, it feels slightly weird

Then, Kurono Meria slipped in a question.

But if I am not mistaken, Kaname-san was

Yes, thats right. Merisan.
Kaname was different from them. According to Haba, he performed the surgery normally, but for some reason, the Talent almost didnt manifest. In the end, it seemed that the copy of the ability failed

Failed, is it?

But the war ended immediately after that, and I started to think that she was lucky gradually

Lucky?

While having an important role in the army, I dont want Kaname to step into this kind of barrenterritory if possible. I started to wish so before I know it.
I dont want her to have unnecessary power and I want her to live peacefully. This era allows it. People who have powers can just protect them. Although she didnt like it, I thought that it was the best for her. Its really a convenient story

Commander Kiris.h.i.+ma

Fufu, really, its not something of my position to say things like this. I would be glad if you take this as a foolish fathers monologue

Hey, whats the reason of being kidnapped? Why only Kaname was targeted?

Ah, youre right

Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune ponders for a while and opens his mouth once again.

I dont have anything certain. But there are 2 clues

2, is it?

First one is as a result, due to the cancellation of the Talent User Production Project accompanied by the end of the war, Kaname became Habas finalsubject. He was obsessed with the project. Exceeding the work limit of the secret country project, he seemed to treat research as his own purpose in life. Hence, I think that its not strange that he would target Kaname who became an incomplete subject

Whats the other one?

The next clue is they know each other. For Satsuki and Setsuna, they only took an indirect surgery by Haba because I was cautious of him, so they didnt meet him, but Kaname was the only one who met him directly

Meet him directly? Does that mean that both of them know each others face?

Ah. However, Kaname was 5 years old at that time. She probably doesnt remember about it. But that was really my mistake. At that time, I misunderstood about Haba Ryuuichi. You can say that I already trusted him as a subordinate because he completed the surgery on my two daughters successfully. I misread his true nature and showed an opening. Even though hes in charge of the secret Talent research, I was careless to think that he was just a researcher

Haba is not a person that you can let your guard down. I can say that for sure now, but

When the project was decided to be discontinued, Haba was already moving strangely. There were traces of him taking the research materials to the outside under the pretext of experimenting on the subjects. When I think about it now, I should have disposehim by executing him instantly at that point

Are those the information you have?

Ah, these are originally, information that I should have disclosed. You understand, right? That the moment I didnt tell this, its already my mistake

Well, but still, we are also responsible for it

Hey, Meria. Enough with that already. Nows our turn

Ah, please do so. Can you tell me, Merisan?

Hearing that from Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune, Kurono Meria starts to talk about the information she prepared.

Yes. We have 2 from our side. The first is about your daughter, Kiris.h.i.+ma Kaname-san

About Kaname

Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune cast his eyes down when he heard his own daughters name.

This is only an unconfirmed information, but the mastermind of this case said something really bothering

Something bothering?

I also heard that. He said There are 3 people of the Principle here

While biting his lips upon hearing the words from Kurono, Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune ponders.

Thats the said boy who ran to the site, Kurono, anddont tell me, the other one is

Yes. Guessing from the mans remark in the situation, it is probably your daughter, Kiris.h.i.+ma Kaname-san

No, impossibleyou mean that girl? That Kaname who suffered because she could only manifest a weak Talent?

Regarding that point, it is still unconfirmed, so we need to investigate it. However, on the occasion of the School War the other day, Kaname-sans Talent showed a surprising improvement. Because it was a sudden change, her Talent evaluation was changed from Divider to Edge Manipulator, but this is generally impossible. From my view as a Talent appraiser, there are many strange points about her Talent

I see. But to be a PrincipleMerisan, can such thing really occur?

It is not confirmed yet, but when thinking about the course of events until now, I think you can consider it

This is really a satire. The girl who I tried to keep her away from power, is like that

Just like that, Kiris.h.i.+ma Kanames father, Masamune cast his eyes downwards and pondered for a while.
Unable to just watch him, Kurono speaks.

Its not confirmed yet, right? Its all after investigating it

Ah, youre right. Can you let me investigate about it for the moment? Theres a specialist of this kind of thing in the intelligence department. I also want her to see it. I will report the results to you. I also want to hear Kuronos opinion as a Principle Talent User

Yes, please do so

Then, the next one. Meria

Against the man who started to turn forward slightly, Kurono Kagen.o.bu urged Kurono Meria for the next topic while looking at his wrist.w.a.tch.

Ah, please continue

Yes. The next one is the information about Haba Ryuuichi

Haba? I think that I heard that you said that this conversation would be on the mastermind of the a.s.sault in the call

Hes not Haba. I saw him directly, so Im sure of it

Ah, I received such report from the armys inquiry division. The DNA extracted from the blood in the site, was concluded to be Kiryuu Yousuke. This information is not different from yours, right?

Yes. However, it is conceivable that the mastermind Kiryuu Yousuke has the knowledge and personality of Haba

What? What do you mean? Dont tell me

Haba probably made his own copy. Furthermore, there is a possibility that there are multiple of them. Their aim is unknown. But we need to create a force to deal with that

Theres a possibility that Habassphere of influence will be added to the Dark Side which is already giving the armys Talent Police Force a problem, is it?

Yes. There is a high possibility that such force will increase below the surface, and I think that it is necessary to get information from now on

While biting his lips upon hearing Kurono Merias words, Commander Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune cast his eyes down and muttered.

Again, a war, huh

In order to prevent that, I think we need to make our move quick

The room was enveloped by silence for a while, and the three of them just stayed silent.

Masa. We can only say this much. Sorry, but were leaving now. We need to meet Akihitonext(TN: Author changed the Mikados name)

It was Kurono Kagen.o.bu who broke the silence. While saying his next plan, he confirms his own wrist.w.a.tch.

Commander Kiris.h.i.+ma, I am very sorry, but it is just as what Otou-san said. We will be leaving now

Turning around to Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune, Kurono Meria bows.

Ah, sorry. My monologue took too much time

Just like that, Kiris.h.i.+ma Masamune calls out to them suddenly when they were trying to leave.

Say, Merisan

Kurono Meria stopped upon hearing the voice, and turned around.

Yes, what is is?

As a military personnel, and furthermore, the head of defense industry, it might be weird to ask something like this, butMerisan. Do you hate war?

Yes. Of course

What do you hate the most in war?

I hate people dying in the battlefield

People dying in the battlefield, huh

Yes. I think human should die like a human. Not dying like being melted in half or being cut into small pieces or exploding like a balloon. If possible, I dont want anyone to die in such a cruel way

Your words are heavy

Because I have killed many. Even during the a.s.sault the other day. That place was a place that affirms such action. And a war makes everythinginto battlefield. I must make sure that no one will experience such thing at least by the next generation

Youre right. I think so too. Its not something I can say because Im still selling the weapons, though

You are wrong, Commander Kiris.h.i.+ma. Power depends on how you use it. Depending on the users heart, it can be a lethal weapon but it can also be a tool for self-protection

Depending on the use, huh

Therefore, there is a need to make the Talent Users of the next generation to have the rightstrength by getting rid of the absurd. I think that way. This should be something that can prevent the disastrous scene

So thats why Kurono created that school as a low cla.s.s that scoops up the overflowing Talent Users from the society

Its not something that complicated. There are too many brats who have Talents, are off the path now. I just created a place for them

Fufu, at first, I thought that you should do something about the name a little more, butthinking back now, I think that its a good name(TN: Low cla.s.s and the Teihen from Teihen High School have the same p.r.o.nunciation, but different kanji)

Hey, enough with the reminiscence

Ah, sorry for stopping you. My bad habit came out again. As the army and Kiris.h.i.+ma Corporation, we value the cooperation with you. Please tell me anything if theres anything I can do. Ah, and

What, you have more?

Kurono Kagen.o.bu looks at the man in front with a fed up face. Although this man may look quiet at first glance, when he starts speaking, it would get extremely long.

If theres any politicians whore a.s.sociated with the Dark Side like Inou, Ill crush them right away. Please report any information without hesitation if you have it

Ah. But dont overdo it

Dont worry. Im just following the current law. Otherwise, it would return to that era. I know that much

Right. Protect the order. Otherwise, youll be the same as them

Ah, I know

Then, were leaving. Dont stop us anymore. Ill bring alcohol the next time

Ah, goodbye. I look forward to it

Just like that, the large man in a black uniform, makes sure the two of them left the room, and he sits on the chair while exhaling greatly.

I need to talk to Kaname about a lot of things, no, first, I need to apologize

When the man muttered that, he started to approve the mountain of permission approval doc.u.ments while thinking about his daughter whos on her way back home.
