Chapter 222: Chapter 17: Justice or Love?



Rentaro Satomi didn't doubt her words at all. 

Although this girl seemed unreliable, she hated hypocrisy and would not lie. 

Moreover, Rentaro Satomi did not think that what Nia Honjo said was just a guess. Because she possessed the power of omniscience, it was entirely possible that she knew how Kisara Tendo felt about him. 

He suddenly felt his mouth go dry. Happiness had come so suddenly. 

For a moment, he even forgot the stiffness and discomfort caused by Nia Honjo's forced change of topic and became a little shy. 

He liked Kisara Tendo. 

It had been like this for a long time. 

As adopted sons of the Tendo family, Rentaro Satomi and Kisara Tendo had been childhood sweethearts and shared a deep friendship. 

As they grew older and became more aware of their genders, their friendship naturally deteriorated a little. 

But they didn't say it out loud. 

Or maybe they hadn't had the chance to say it yet. 

On that day, under the planning of other members of the Tendo family, the Gastrea invaded the residence of Kisara Tendo's parents and killed both of them. 

She herself was injured in the attack and permanently lost her kidney function. In order to protect her, Rentaro Satomi lost his left eye, right hand, and right foot. 

It was also after this disaster that Rentaro Satomi became a mechanical warrior, and Kisara Tendo turned into a vengeful demon. 

She could have gone to the hospital to get a kidney transplant, but she didn't. 

To let the pain remind herself not to forget her revenge, she endured the pain and inconvenience, unwilling to make things easier for herself, even though she had to go to the hospital for dialysis every month. 

It was precisely because she had devoted her life to revenge that her heart had no room for anything else. 

"Young man, do you know why Kisara-chan doesn't want to accept your feelings?" 

"Yes… it's because of revenge, right?" Rentaro Satomi replied with mixed feelings. 

"That's right. If you want Kisara-chan to accept your feelings, there are only two ways. The first is to make Kisara-chan give up revenge." Nia Honjo raised two fingers. "The second is to help Kisara-chan get revenge. Which method do you think is better?" 

"Of course, the first one," Rentaro Satomi said without hesitation. 

"But haven't you been trying the first method all these years?" Nia Honjo said. "Not only has there been no progress, but Kisara-chan's determination for revenge has become even stronger. If you keep going against Kisara-chan, one day… you will be on opposite sides." 

"..." Rentaro Satomi did not say anything because, deep in his heart, he had vaguely had such a guess. 

"Perhaps you were still a little bit lucky before, thinking that you have the ability to change others, but I advise you not to overestimate your abilities." Nia Honjo patted his shoulder. "Which one do you want to choose: the justice you want to uphold or the love you want to get?" 

"I… I don't know." 

"You hesitated, which only shows that your justice is not firm." Nia Honjo patted his shoulder again. "Take advantage of the opportunity to stay by her side and let her rely on you. Become her new pillar of support. Only in this way, after revenge is completed, will she have a reason to live." 

"That's too despicable." 

"Love is inherently mean." 

After some warnings, Nia Honjo gave him some time and walked back to the office door. 

She knocked on the door and heard the sound of trotting footsteps. 

After waiting for about three seconds, she opened the door and walked back into the office. 

Kisara Tendo sat in her chair, seemingly without moving. 

But in the situation just now, only a fool would not have eavesdropped. Nia Honjo was sure that when she was talking to Rentaro Satomi, Kisara Tendo had definitely been eavesdropping. 

"You guys are done talking, right?" 

Kisara Tendo's mood had calmed down a lot, and her hostility toward Nia Honjo disappeared without a trace. "Well, then, it's time for us to talk about cooperation, Miss Honjo." 

"You finally believe me? I'm so touched, Kisara-chan!" 

"I'll say it again: I cannot trust a mysterious person like you whose background I do not know, but the benefits you can provide are beyond my ability to ignore." 

"Tsundere is out of fashion now. In this era, it's more in line with expectations to play it straight." 

"What! It's not you that I like!" 

Kisara Tendo glared at her, then asked seriously, "But before we cooperate, I need to know where you got this information from." 

"This is not convenient to tell Kisara-chan. After all, this is one of my secrets." 

"Okay, but I need a complete chain of evidence that can prove the Tendo family's guilt. Only in this way can I bring down the Tendo family." Kisara Tendo spoke more seriously. "Only when they lose their original status can I kill my enemies. If you can't prove the reliability of this evidence, then I need you to provide a more complete chain of evidence." 

"Of course, it's a piece of cake," Nia Honjo said casually. "Then, as a token of my sincerity, I will help you take down one of your enemies: Kikunojou Tendo." 

Kikunojou Tendo was the lowest-ranking of the five people who had killed Kisara Tendo's parents and was also the easiest to bring down. 

As the black glove of the Tendo family, he was responsible for assassination missions. Once discovered, he would be abandoned by the Tendo family without hesitation. 

"Thank you so much for your help… really." 

Kisara Tendo stroked her demon sword and asked excitedly, "So, what do I need to provide for you?" 

"Let me join your company." 

"That's it?" 

"That's it." 

"What exactly are you planning?" 

"I've said it before: I'm doing this to make the world a better place." 

"I thought you were making that up to mock me." 

"Kisara-chan, I never lie. I don't like hypocritical things." 

"Then you can just tell me how you can make the world a better place." 

"Although I won't lie, that doesn't mean I won't hide anything." Nia Honjo smiled. "I believe our cooperation will go smoothly, Kisara-chan. During this period, you just need to treat me as an ordinary employee, like the boy." 

Kisara Tendo nodded. 

Although she still didn't know what Nia Honjo was up to, the benefits she offered were real. 

After signing the contract and Nia Honjo telling Kisara Tendo all the evidence of Tendo Gentsuku crimes, the two officially reached a cooperative relationship. 

"Ms. Honjo." Just as Nia Honjo was about to leave, Kisara Tendo called her. 

"Anything else?" 

"Um… thank you." 

"You're welcome. Isn't the essence of cooperation mutual benefit?" 

"No, that's not what I'm talking about." Tendo spoke more awkwardly. "I mean… what you said to Rentaro." 

"Oh, you mean that? I didn't expect you to thank me for something like this." Nia Honjo showed a foxy smile. "You've become a little more straightforward, Kisara-chan, but being straightforward with me won't work. You have to be straightforward with the boy." 

"No road race!" 

"Ahahaha, then I'll go back alone." 

Nia Honjo covered her mouth and laughed, then left the office. 

"I'll leave the boy to you. I won't disturb you two from loving each other."
