Start by Eating Jake Jake no Mi

For people in this country, especially for an older generation like him, whose diets mainly consisted of carbohydrates, his height was high, as he reached 170 cm. 

His suit was neat and tidy; his hair was styled in an elegant style, like a distinguished gentleman, yet even so, one couldn't help but flinch when they saw his face. 

Similar to Masa, Eriri could see that this old man was quite handsome in the past, but unfortunately, half of his face was disfigured. 

Or rather, this guy was like a villain! 

No, this old man would be a villain if Masa knew what Eriri thought. 

Still, with such a face, it was impossible for Eriri not to know this old man. 

"H-Hayami Katsumasa-san?!" 

Yes, this guy was a famous industrialist and billionaire in this country! 

The founder and CEO of the electric power industry supported the electricity of the Kanto region, Yamanashi Prefecture, and the eastern portion of Shizuoka Prefecture, Toyo Electric Power Co!

Or rather, all the electricity in Tokyo was supported by Hayami's company! 

This man was the one behind all of those! 

Yes, Eriri might be silly, but even so, it didn't mean she was ignorant, especially since she often talked with Masa about the richest men in this country, and because of that, she knew how frightening the power of this man was. 

Yet, somehow, she didn't feel surprised. She felt like it was natural for Masa's father to be an impressive man.

"You must be Sawamura Eriri, right? You suit each other well. Please take care of him." 

Watching Hayami bow his head lightly, Eriri was also flustered and quickly bowed her head, too. "Ah, um, I-I will take care of him and make him happy!" 

"....." Masa. 

"Haha..." Hayami laughed and said, "Anyway, come in. We can talk slowly inside." 

"Yes!" 

"...."

Watching Eriri, who wanted to appear like a reliable woman as if wishing to show the best of her impression to her father-in-law, Masa sighed helplessly. 

Nevertheless, as the three entered, the three talked to each other. 

"Sorry to bring this up all of a sudden after you just got home from school." 

"It's fine." Eriri shook her head and said, "Compared to his stalker incident, this is nothing, and it is also a good deterrent, so no strange women or guys will try to approach him." 

Yes, having Masa's father's people pick Masa up under the gaze of many would make all of those people understand that Masa and those people were people from two different sides, and instead of having an unrealistic dream, it was better for them to just dream and worship him from afar. 

Still, with Masa's career as an influence in the past, he had many stalkers, which caused chaos in the school previously, and then, the one who took care of it...

"Uncle, were you the one who handled that incident?" 

"You can call me Father if you want. You are going to get married, right?" 

"Ah, um..." Eriri blushed, but she then looked at Masa eagerly. 

"She is." 

As long as this country only allowed one wife, then his wife was definitely Eriri. 

"That's good." Hayami nodded and said, "You should just marry right after graduation." 

While Eriri never expected Masa's father to agree to their relationship so easily, she was happy!

So, she had to make sure that Hayami knew nothing of her abnormal fetish! 

"..." Masa. 

Regardless, Hayami stared at Masa's face for a while, falling into a daze, and said, "You really look like your mother." 

"And I am glad for that." 

"Is that how you talk to me?" 

"Do you want me to talk to you respectfully like your followers? I can adjust my tone if you want." 

"No, it's fine like this." 

Eriri looked at the two and hoped that they wouldn't fight. 

She might be a little slow and even silly, but she could tell well that Hayami appeared to care about Masa much, but Masa didn't seem to wish to get close to his blood-related father. 

Still, as they arrived at Hayami's study room, which was filled with many books, while Masa was curious, looking at the collection of books, Eriri stared curiously at Hayami's half-disfigured face. 

"What's wrong? Are you curious about my face?" 

"Ah, um..." 

"It's fine. It isn't a secret anyway." 

"Er... what happened to your face... Father-in-law?" 

It was a bit strange to call Hayami a father directly, but it was fine if she added an "in-law," right?

"It's nothing. My enemy just poured acid on half of my face." 

"...." Eriri. 

Masa looked speechlessly at Hayami and asked, "So... do you want me to help you to handle your enemy?" Based on his understanding of this world, he knew well who Hayami's enemy was.

"No, I have already won." 

"...you have won?" 

Unexpectedly, unlike Masa's imagination, Hayami didn't appear to have an obsession with his enemy. 

Also, wasn't this guy a loser who had never won? 

Why the heck did this guy win?

"Unlike him, who has failed descendants, my son is much better than his, and sooner or later, you will control everything, right?" 

Yes, if there was a reason why Hayami didn't appear as aggressive in the past or in the original story, it was because of Masa. It was because his son was so exceptional that he knew sooner or later this country would be under Masa's control. 

"That's great!" 

Eriri was also happy. 

"...." 

Still, Masa was a bit helpless, but then again, even if his father was the villain in the Kenganverse, he felt that it was okay. "But are you okay with those bodyguards? They aren't fully loyal to you, right?" 

"You can tell?" 

Instead of frowning, Hayami was happy that Masa could notice the strangeness of his people. 

"I do. It's like they are a spy or something." 

"It's fine." 

"Is it?" 

"Yes." Hayami nodded and said, "We're just using each other, and if they want the future, then they have to serve me." Their relationship was dependent, and if this group of people wanted to achieve their ambition, then they had to serve him well as his tool, or else they could do nothing.

Still, Masa was confused and asked, "You are the founder and owner of Toyo Electric Power Co. All the electricity in Tokyo is supported by your company, yet even so, you still need other's help?" 

"I am." Hayami nodded, and his expression was one of hatred as he held his disfigured face. "My enemy is nothing, but the one that supports him is annoying." 

"Who?" 

"Kure Clan." 

"Oh, that assassination family." 

"Oh? Have you heard of it?" 

"I have." 

"Then, that face of yours?" 

"It was caused by the leader of the Kure Clan." Hayami sipped his wine and said, "Enough about me. Don't you want my help to acquire that company?" 

"You know everything, huh?" 

"It is because of my influence that you got to where you stand, right?" 

"That's true." 

"But Toshiba, huh? Well, it is a good company, but can you handle its burden?" 

As Hayami knew most of the things about Masa, it was natural for him to know what kind of a company his son wanted to acquire. 

Toshiba. 

It was one of the largest electronics companies in this country and even in the world, but it faced a crisis due to accounting scandals and the failure of its nuclear energy company's subsidiary. 

Frankly, this country was in jeopardy, but if Masa could handle this company, this would be the first step in which Masa and Hayami could cooperate, and even if it was impossible to have a normal father and a son relationship like any other normal family, helping him to acquire this company would close their relationship. 

After all, if Hayami's company wanted to develop a new energy plant, he could contact Masa, who controlled Toshiba, which had an energy plant construction company. 

Or rather, as long as Masa controlled this electrical company, he would be as good as the god of this world, especially with the memory of Masa of Mahouka. 

As for the money, Masa also had an investment firm, and Hayami also knew Masa's talent in finance; the problem of money definitely wasn't something that they were worried about. 

Regardless, Masa and Hayami looked at each other with a smile, thinking that it was good to have a powerful father (talented son).

Still, Eriri, who was by their side, only widened her eyes when she was about to put brownies in her mouth as she remembered Masa's goal to dominate the world, and with Masa's father's support, she came up with one conclusion. 

'My boyfriend is a villain!'
