Chapter 618 - The Safeties Are Off
??
I wonder how my disciples are doing outside?
Since Tsuki told me that reliving an entire lifetime is about ten minutes in real time, there shouldn\'t be any issues with me being here. I do want to learn everything about my past life after all.
The good thing was that my memories were actually returning to me slowly even though I wasn\'t living through them currently. The feeling is like someone putting some kind of movie into my head directly, playing it back to me even while I continue to live this life.
If I wanted to know something related to my memory, I would also immediately recall the memory perfectly even while still gaining new ones in the background.
If I had to describe it, it\'s like a computer unpacking a compressed file inside its memory storage. It\'s all there, but I just need time to comprehend it.
It\'s still going to take me a while to piece everything together but it\'s nothing I\'ve never done before. It\'s not my first time processing a huge amount of information being stuffed in my head, after all.
I also found out that even though there was only Tsuki and I living in this large house, we still shared the same bedroom because she didn\'t want us to be separated from each other.
In case you were wondering, it\'s a wholesome brother and sister relationship. Really.
You won\'t hear me saying this out loud, but being the big spoon felt kind of nice.
Even though I\'ve done it with my disciples countless times, doing it with Tsuki gave me a sense of nostalgia.
Then again, considering this is technically my past, it would make sense for me to feel that way right?
Somehow I feel like making the decision to stay here just to relax for a bit was the right choice.
No crazy people to disturb me, no power hungry cultivators trying to kill me, no real threat to my cute disciples or even just people I care about in general, no Dark Sect or other worldly beings trying to destroy the world either.
Yep, this place is great.
"Nii-chan~ I\'m off to school!" Tsuki yelled out from the doorway.
I appeared from the kitchen holding the bento I prepared for her, "Be careful now. I placed a few protection inscriptions on you which I doubt anything in this world can break, but that\'s no excuse to be careless."
"Heeeh~ What do they do?"
"Well, let\'s just say that if a truck tried to isekai you, it would be the one that got isekai-ed instead. The only issue for us would be trying explain how you destroyed a truck."
"Guhihihi~ Nii-chan is a worrywart as usual~"
She took the bento from my hands and gave me a peck on my cheek.
"I love you, Nii-chan!" She waved back before running out of the house.
Mmm, little sisters are definitely cute. Now I know why I spoiled Elaria in my other life too.
Cai Hong is still cutest though.
Now I should get to work too, not that it\'s anything difficult to do given my current abilities and also my knowledge of the future.
Since my memories are still slowly returning to me, I don\'t know everything that is set to happen in the future yet. But I at least have knowledge of what was supposed to happen in the next two years or so.
I did a quick clean up of the house before going to my room to put on my suit.
With everything prepared, I left the house just as a black sedan with tinted windows pulled up in front of the house.
I climbed into the back seat and greeted the only other occupant of the car with a grin, "Good morning, Hiroto."
"Good morning, Aniki!" Hiroto greeted me back from the driver seat. "As Aniki had predicted, the Kashima family requested a meeting with us today."
I nodded, "Good, everything is going to plan."
I had never intended to remain subservient to the other three Yakuza families forever and was already making plans to either overthrow them or absorb them ever since the day I took over this Family.
The Kitakura Family was the easiest one since their Matriarch was kind of a shotacon so all I really had to do was seduce her with some bats of my eyelashes.
My next target was the Kashima Family whose main business lies in the night clubs and bars in Kabukicho. I had set up several competing businesses in the area under a different company which took quite a big chunk of their business from them.
If this was the normal me, I would only have succeeded in stealing their business in another year or so, but with my cheats, a single day was enough to utterly turn their fortunes upside down.
They tried to harass and bully the competitors away but were entirely unsuccessful, so they resorted to try and find out where these competitors sprouted from.
It was only recently that they realised they were all under me and now were demanding answers on why we were competing with them.
No big deal, I was already prepared to deal with them. Or at least, the memory me did. He had plans on how to deal with every single one of the yakuza families in case they turned hostile to us, I was really meticulous about it it seems.
"Do you have the things?" I asked.
Hiroto nodded, "Yumi took care of it, she\'s waiting for us at the meeting place. Should we head there now? It wouldn\'t be good to keep Kashima-dono waiting even if we are stabbing him in the back."
I was about to agree when I remembered the fact that I still have my powers from the other world so there was absolutely no reason for me to play by this world\'s rules at all.
In fact, wasn\'t my plan to break this place apart? I almost forgot about that.
I can\'t do something too drastic from the start just in case I rip myself apart with the space, so let\'s just test how far I can take things first.
I smirked, "You know… I\'m feeling a little hungry. Isn\'t there that new ramen place that opened up across the street from our office? Why don\'t we all go for a quick bite first? My treat. You know what? Tell Yumi to come as well."
Hiroto raised an eyebrow at me, "Are you sure about that, Aniki? We both know how serious Kashima-dono is. He\'ll be breathing down our necks if we\'re late, you know?"
I chuckled, "Trust me on this. I know what I\'m doing."
Hiroto still had a rather doubtful expression on his face but decided it was better to trust me.
He took out his phone and sent a quick text, presumably to Yumi, before stepping on the pedal and driving us to our destination.
I took the chance to check on Tsuki through the inscriptions I laid on her and found her just reaching her classroom, waving to her friends with a smile.
Watching her smile like that, I\'m reminded of last night when I revealed my status as a transmigrator to Tsuki.
Seeing her accept me wholeheartedly like she did, there was no way I could let her down in this life.
That\'s why… Just in this world, I\'ll just be a little bit selfish and let people know that they play by my rules.
