#306 - Chapter 303: Teasing Dong Xiang
“Stop it, and you guys too. I told you I’d give you something to eat.”
At this moment, Amanohane Byakuya picked up the three little girls who were clinging to him one by one, and then put them on the ground.
These little ones finally calmed down.
Afterward, Amanohane Byakuya and Eto Yoshimura led them back the way they came, returning to the surface from the deepest part of the underground labyrinth.
“What is this place? It’s so dazzling!”
“My eyes hurt so much, I want to go back.”
Having lived in the dark underground world for so long, and with it being daytime outside, the dead-fish-eyed triplets couldn't stand it as soon as they reached the surface.
“I’m sorry, I forgot to remind you that your eyes need to adjust a bit when you first come out.”
Amanohane Byakuya said apologetically.
After a while, the dead-fish-eyed triplets’ eyes barely adjusted to the brightness.
Mainly because ghouls have strong physiques and powerful regeneration abilities, their self-adaptation ability is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary humans.
Afterward, Amanohane Byakuya directly took the dead-fish-eyed triplets to the manager's coffee shop.
The most suitable thing to feed these triplets is naturally the carrion preserved in the store.
“Where did these three little girls come from?”
Seeing Byakuya bringing back these three unfamiliar little girls from who knows where, Touka Kirishima immediately asked.
Moreover, Miss Eto came along as well...
“Underground.”
Amanohane Byakuya replied succinctly.
“Underground?”
Touka Kirishima didn't react for a moment.
“There are too many people here, let’s go upstairs to talk.”
Amanohane Byakuya said.
“...Okay.”
Touka Kirishima nodded.
............
Coincidentally, Yoshimura Kuzen was also upstairs at this time.
Rather, the manager Yoshimura is almost always in the store.
“These three little ones, I brought them out from the underground world, which is another world beneath the 24th ward...”
Amanohane Byakuya briefly explained the situation.
“Underground world......”
Soon, he brought several packs of carrion and placed them on the table, “Please eat.”
Because they didn't understand what Yoshimura Kuzen was saying, the dead-fish-eyed triplets looked at Amanohane Byakuya with puzzled expressions.
However, what they did know was that the packs on the table in front of them should be delicious, they could already smell the aroma.
Although it was far less delicious than the scent on the human beside them, he wouldn’t let them have a bite...
“He’s talking to you, eat it.”
At this moment, Amanohane Byakuya said to them in a language they could understand.
“Okay!”
The three nodded one after another, and then immediately went to grab the carrion on the table and started eating.
“The language isn’t the same? No, it still seems to be Japanese, but the accent is particularly different...”
Yoshimura Kuzen said.
“Yes, this is related to the [One-Eyed King] from a hundred years ago. They are the descendants of the ghouls who turned into humans who sank into the ground with the [One-Eyed King] back then.”
Amanohane Byakuya explained.
“So those rumors were true...”
Yoshimura Kuzen was immediately surprised.
With Yoshimura Kuzen’s experience, he naturally knew those rumors, while Touka Kirishima was confused, not knowing what Byakuya and the manager were talking about.
“There’s an One-Eyed King in the underground world... what’s going on?”
Touka Kirishima couldn't help but ask.
At this time, Eto Yoshimura pulled Touka aside and explained these things to Touka in detail.
After a while, Touka Kirishima nodded as if she understood, “Oh, oh, the One-Eyed King of the Washuu family’s founder, I thought the [One-Eyed King] you were talking about was Miss Eto...”
Originally, in her understanding, Eto Yoshimura was the [One-Eyed King] of Aogiri Tree, so she was so confused just now.
But, wait... why the Washuu family?
Touka Kirishima still remembered that the Washuu family was the very famous family that founded the CCG. Shouldn't they be a human family?
How could there be a [One-Eyed King]?
Because Eto Yoshimura hadn't explained the truth about the Washuu family to Touka yet, she was confused again at this moment.
“No, no, no, the [One-Eyed King] of Aogiri Tree is no longer me. Before, it was someone else, and now it’s Byakuya.”
Eto Yoshimura said casually.
“Byakuya is your One-Eyed King now?”
Touka Kirishima was a little surprised.
“Yes, yes, little Touka should know how strong Byakuya is. I have also been deeply fascinated by his heroic figure~”
At this moment, Eto Yoshimura covered her face with her hands, deliberately revealing a silly look.
Obviously, just teasing Byakuya didn't satisfy her, and now she started teasing Touka again.
“What?!”
Touka Kirishima reacted greatly.
However, she immediately realized that her reaction was too obvious, and coughed to cover herself up, her cheeks slightly red, and asked in a very soft voice: “Miss Eto, could it be... do you like Byakuya?”
“What if I said yes?”
Eto Yoshimura replied.
Her probing intention was obvious.
“Then......”
Originally, Touka Kirishima subconsciously wanted to say “That won’t do”, but she restrained herself, “Why would Miss Eto like that guy...?”
“Still asking why? Didn’t I just explain the reason?”
Eto Yoshimura said with a smile without blushing or skipping a beat: “Not only is he strong, but he’s also handsome. I like such manly little brothers the most~”
“......”
Touka Kirishima suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
Although she had a sense of crisis about Miss Eto before, now she has truly confirmed her guess.
At this time, Amanohane Byakuya and the manager could also hear Eto Yoshimura's voice teasing Touka.
Originally, Byakuya and the manager were still talking about the topic of the underground world, but now the topic was suddenly interrupted.
Yoshimura Kuzen was silent for a moment, and said to Amanohane Byakuya earnestly: “Byakuya, I’m entrusting my daughter to you......”
“Don’t listen to her nonsense, it’s obvious that she’s teasing people, okay?”
Amanohane Byakuya immediately corrected.
As soon as Byakuya said this, Eto Yoshimura immediately made a sad and aggrieved expression, “That’s too much, to actually treat someone’s sincerity as a joke.”
