Chapter 867 Glorious Suns.h.i.+ne Part 21

"Then would you tell me if we were elsewhere?" Miya challenged.

There is no way she will simply let this subject drop.

"I have nothing to talk to you about." Hiriji said sharply.

Miya frowned. Why is this guy being so stubborn? He clearly still cares for Sumire.

Before anything could happen, somebody removed Hiriji's hand from her mouth. Miya turned to see a man with golden coloured hair. It takes her a moment to recognize him. Ah, this person. He is also one of the members of nanairofeather isn't he?

While she attended the same middle school as Sumire for at least a year. She was in the general course, and didn't pay much attention to the music students. However, even though she didn't pay attention. There was one that stood out to her. Tachibana Masaru.

Nearly all the girls in her cla.s.s spoke about him, and there were many who had a one night stand with him. It disgusted her, since they were clearly too young to do anything s.e.xual. Normally she isn't the type to believe rumors, but after hearing so many she started to believe them.

"Out of our old friends.h.i.+p, I shall let you go here and turn a blind eye to the fact that I saw you and that s.h.i.+zune Miya met with you."

"I see, I apologise for the trouble Masaru."

"The day finally came where you called me by my name and it's in this circ.u.mstance. As the lady would say how unpleasant."

"Is she doing alright?" Hijiri asked.

Masaru shuts his eyes, his gaze softens. "Yeah, she is. She has people who love and care about her deeply. Friends who have her back and family whom she can rely on. As well as someone who she will be bound with forever."

"I see. Then it's alright now, to leave it in his hands." Hiriji turned to leave. "Miss Miya, you do not have to respond to the invitation. I am aware that you told your parents that you don't want anything to do with me. Lucifer will not care about losing one n.o.ble household, so you don't have to worry about your family being at risk."

"I'm going to go." Miya declared. "But not as your ally."

"Alright." With those words said Hiriji left and Miya slumped to the ground in defeat.

All the tension since earlier left her body.

"This is an unusual first meeting s.h.i.+zune Miya."

Miya turned to look at him. "Thank you for helping me. But, I am capable of handling myself." She said as she stood up.

Tachibana Masaru gave a low chuckle. "It seems that side of you still hasn't changed. But, I guess I should have known."

"Excuse me, do I even know yo-" Miya turned and Masaru grabbed hold of her wrist and dragged her to a nearby wall. "H-hey, what on earth are you doing?"

"Taking my payment for saving your life."

Miya frowned. "He wouldn't have hurt me."

"You have no idea what he is capable off."

"I think I've just been pa.s.sed from one wolf to another." Miya said confidently. But, the reality was she felt her body trembling. Before Masaru could do anything however, a yellow coloured barrier wrapped around her body.

"I see, you really are an evolved human. Is that why you carelessly got close to Hiriji?"

"I got close to him because we are friends. At least before I learned of him betraying Sumire." Miya explained what she learned.

She was still nervous and watching him with caution. But, with her barrier up. He shouldn't be able to do anything.

"It seems your information is limited. Hiriji did more than attack the school. He is responsible for the death of Sumire's parents."

At that comment her eyes widened. What?

"You heard me just now. That man you were following around? He is a cold blooded murderer. He could have hurt you."

Miya recalled the sensation of Hiriji's hands at her neck and she froze. Just now she instinctively put up a barrier around Tachibana Masaru, but she didn't do so in front of Hiriji. Even though he was clearly threatening just now.

Masaru chuckled. "You really don't change do you?"

What is he even talking about? Masaru turned to leave. "I'm going to see the lady now. I suggest that you come along too, and explain what happened."

Miya could only nod. She made sure to keep the barrier around herself as she walked a few steps behind Masaru. Did she ever cross paths with him in middle school?

SUMIRE

Seeing Miya aside, when she saw Masaru with her. She sighed deeply.

"You weren't invited for the contest, what on earth are you doing here?"

"Now, now Lady. It's your first major concert. Of course I will be here." Masaru winked.

Miya speaks up. "Sumire, you really have strange friends. Your friends with this huge flirt?"

"Unfortunately."

"That's cruel lady, I came all the way out here for you."

"You should have stayed back home." Sumire mumbled.

"The town is fine. Ryuuji behaves that way but he makes a good leader and Futaba has no choice but to shape up too. When she is serious, she is a force to be reckoned with." Masaru trailed off. "Besides, I hear you have been having far too much contact with Lucifer these days."

Her sweat fell seeing the evil smile on his face. Geh, she should have known better than to hide it from him.

"Nao just arrived. You don't have to worry."

"I know, I saw him patrolling outside."

Sumire's eyes widened alarmed. "You should have brought him with you. Earlier-"

"He told me what happened with Hijiri, and that incident is why he is doing what he is."

'I was with Hijiri afterwards and he didn't do anything to me. He could have, they were sitting so close to each other. Hijiri won't hurt me directly that much I know.' But, explaining that to Nao won't be easy.

Hearing the sound of babies crying, Sumire turned to crib and picked up Satomi. "What's wrong little one? Mama is here."

Satomi immediately stopped crying and placed kisses on her cheek.
