Event 106: True Grandpa

"Grandfather?!" Haruta went blank, the old man in front of him declared to be his blood relative but in the black-haired's mind there was no memory of his grandfather.

"you do not remember me?" asked the old man removing his hands from Haruta's shoulders to massage his chin while thinking "I can't blame you, when you were born I was very busy with the affairs of my youngest son and the alliances, your father on the other hand was reluctant to visit me, after the death of your mother I did not know anything else about Yoichi "

"Issei-dono this may be too hasty for Haruta ..."

"Ah ...? Are you saying that even if I waited all this time after that bastard azami humiliated my grandson, I didn't take retribution just to face Senzemon-dono and I still can't talk to him familiarly, or defend him when some trash from the Yuuki family tries to corner him? "

Issei glared at Yuriko who had tried to stop his actions, the old man clasped his hands on Haruta's shoulders while his face reflected a big smile "I can finally see my grandson after years, I couldn't be happier but I guess the scenario is not ideal, Shouzou you should make your wife educate herself before reprimanding my grandson maybe she has forgotten what the surname Ichijo means in this country "

Shouzou just nodded as he held his wife and led her away from the place "I am not a violent man but I will never tolerate them disturbing my family, during my youth I would have mobilized everything to destroy the Yuuki family, this Maybe I'll just let it pass as my grandson's girlfriend "

"Well boy you still have a lot to tell me but it will be at another time, Yuriko is right after all, you are not yet ready for you to get involved in this side of the world, at another time we can speak properly" Issei shook Haruta's head with a cheerful smile on his face "Neither of my two sons has as much guts to talk to the heads of other families like you, I guess that trait came out of my genes"

Without saying anything else the old man turned and turned his back on Haruta to walk towards the exit, a few meters before he reached the exit several people got up and followed him without saying a single word, only after he left the laughter and screams could be heard in the room.

"You must have a lot of questions in your head Haruta, a lot happened tonight that I suppose you weren't expecting" Soichiro moved to where Haruta was "But you should know that this man was taking care of you in silence and he may be the person who cares the most have"

Haruta stood firm and pointed his finger towards where his grandfather had come out earlier "is it a yakuza?"

"Indeed, television may not show the best face of the yakuza but you should not be afraid of your family ..."

"I am not afraid, I really expected a development of this type"

"Did you expect it?"

"I have a giant house, only his house is comparable to mine, it is impossible for a chef couple to have the money to buy a place of that magnitude, there was only one explanation but I left it in the back of my mind and now everything is Resolved, I'm the grandson of a mob boss "

Haruta kept calm remembering the large bathroom inside the house, the old library and even the mythical imperial green tea in the greenhouses.

"Now that you know what your family line is, what are you going to do now?" Soichiro kept his attention on Haruta as a person with great social and political power he knew very well that people are attracted to this kind of thing, a relative who appears out of nowhere with great power like the yakuza, no one could resist. It is not news that the young people involved in those situations end with resounding results and since Soichiro considers himself a guardian for Haruta, he did not want it to end that way.

Haruta just raised his shoulders slightly "I have to go home, there are many things pending"

"I'll call a taxi" so you can come closer

"I still have to finish business in the kitchen so I will refuse for now, I am the head chef after all."

Haruta said goodbye to Soichiro, Saya and Yuriko before returning to the kitchen where he was being waited.

Ogata was studying everything that Haruta had given him before while Kuga entertained himself by teaching Suzaku the secrets of his famous mapo tofu, an old chef like Suzaku had no chance to attend Totsuki, the only chance that adult had was to learn by Internet or on television shows but since Haruta arrived at the restaurant his repertoire of dishes was greatly expanded and now he was being taught by another of the tootsuki elites, any cook would be removing his hair if he saw the scene.

"Haruta-chin, I was waiting for you to say goodbye, I would like to spend more time with you but I have unfinished business as one of the ten councilors, remember that we have a pending duel and I hope it will be soon" Kuga did not wait a single second to take his suitcase and her bag and then run to the exit leaving them all behind.

Haruta massaged his neck in discomfort "Well, I guess we finished the job, we should go home and enjoy that everything went well"
