Kurokami Mansion.

Kurokami Maguro's POV*

That boy gave me goosebumps. I can't understand what he is thinking, fate? Does something like that really exist? I find it hard to believe in abstract things like fate, they are too vague to be understand and here is a boy saying that he fought one before. Wouldn't something like that really be mind boggling? "Ah, my head is aching just thinking about it. I should probably stop" I muttered while massaging my head. The thing that scares me the most is that the boy is a friend of my sister, I know that he is something that could help my sister understand humans more but the thought of him being in my sister's side is making me worry a lot.

That girl with him is also worrying since she seemed rather apathetic to everything except for the boy. If the boy is not a normal human then I could consider the girl as one too, I don't know what her abilities is but my instinct never failed me before. "I need to consult to father about this, I wonder what his stance in this particular case.. would he let the boy be at Medaka-chan's side and corrupting her in the process or would he force them to separate and let her live freely. The second one might be inticing but the consequences is something that father could not afford to fix" I muttered while thinking about it. If father forces them to separate then Medaka-chan would live ignorant for how a human being really live.

I stopped thinking when I saw I was the only one in the hallway, I remembered that Xander-kun just vanished as I became worried. If he is an assasin then his target would be the most vulnerable one, then that person is..!? "Kujira-chan..?" I immediately went to my sister's room and opened her door with a bang. "Kujira-chan! Are you okay?!" I shouted only to be dumbfounded when I saw both of them talking with smile on their faces. "Huh? Aniki? What are you doing here?" My little sister asked seemed dumbfounded by my outburst.

I can feel my gaze heating up from embarrassment, those two's gazes are too intense for me to stay sane. "Hoh, your brother is quite protective of you huh, Kujira-chan" the boy said making my lips twitch. I stopped for a moment when I noticed how he called my sister, "Kujira-chan?" I asked looking at my little sister who just smiled. "What's wrong with that, Aniki? He seemed to understand my situation better than anyone so letting him use it is already acceptable" Kujira-chan said as I was alerted by that, "What does that mean..?" I carefully asked while looking at Xander warily, I wonder what this child planted in my precious sister's mind.

"I mean, he mentioned something about his readers complaining that he doesn't get that much spotlight.. I don't really understand it but he understand me better than even you" Kujira-chan said some hurtful words. Still this little boy know my little sister better than me? That's an insult for a siscon like me. "Anyway, what are you doing here, Xander? Shouldn't you be with Medaka-chan and her other friends?" I asked bringing one of the things that Kujira-chan doesn't like. Knowing that Xander is a friend of Medaka-chan, I am sure that she will change her mind about him.

"Kurokami-san mentioned about us to freely move as we wanted. Your father also gave us the freedom so I'll abuse that privilege when I can still use it" Xander said as my lips twitched. Kujira-chan just stared at our conversation looking forward to how it will end so I just stopped. "I'll go out now, Kujira-chan.. please don't lose yourself" I gave one last advice to my sister who is slowly getting out of her shell. "I know, Aniki. Losing control is one of my least problems" Ah she misunderstood my intention but I can't blame her. She is still a child after all, she still don't know about the real side of peoples.

3rd POV*

Xander looked at Kujira and smirked. "Your brother worries about you a lot, he is already expecting me to corrupt you just like how I changed your younger sister" He said as Kujira yawned, "He is always like that. Just thinking of the outer picture without checking first if it would be advantageous to the people who will experienced it" Kujira said while shaking her head. Nonetheless she still couldn't hate her brother as she knew that he is only doing it for their sakes.

"Still you entered this room without activating any of the traps that I made, I can understand if its Aniki since he is always monitoring both Medaka and me but for you to enter easily.. you must have some abilities right?" Kujira said looking at Xander who smiled in return. "Saying it immediately would boring so I hereby challenge you to uncover what my ability is" Xander said grinning at the girl who just sneered. "Who do you think you are talking to? Even though I am not as talented as both of my siblings are, I am still confident in my ability to inspect things" Kujira said accepting Xander's challenge.

The two grinned at each other before Xander walked to the door, "It was nice meeting you, Kujira-chan. The conversation was pleasant" Xander said while waving his hands at her. Kujira didn't respond as she just watched Xander getting out, this meeting gave Kujira a lot of informations to what she would do from now on. 'Xander Ranvil.. an enigmatic guy that even aniki couldn't understand.. I'll see what you can do' Kujira thought while looking forward to what would happen in the future.

Xander left the room as he teleported to Mashiro's side. "So? Did anything noteworthy happened?" Xander asked while looking at Mashiro. "Um, Medaka couldn't understand the feeling of the maid who broke a vase.. am I the same as her Xander?" Mashiro asked while being worried that she might be something like Medaka who can't understand emotions at all. Based on what Mashiro has observed, Medaka doesn't understand anything that is connected to human emotions, she just copied what she saw the others do so sometimes there might be confusing things that happens.

"Nope, not at all. You're doing great Mashiro, instead of not understanding anything, you are slowly learning things. Don't hasten it up and just follow the flow, you will eventually understand the thing called human emotions" Xander said some assuring things while patting Mashiro's head. Zenkichi and Medaka finally noticed his presence as they looked at him, "Where did you go, Xander? Its been 15 minutes already, you never left that long" Medaka asked while narrowing her eyes at Xander. "I just met your sister, she is quite interesting if I may say" Xander said gaining the suspicious look from Mashiro's face. "Well, Mashiro is more interesting" he defused the bomb by saying that.

"My sister? Oh right, I forgot to introduce everyone to Kuji-nee. Do you want to meet her?" Medaka asked the others, "I'm tired, Medaka-chan. You've been leading us for many hours already, I wanted to sleep" Zenkichi complained while Mashiro did the same. She wanted to eat baumkuchens already since she only ate a little during breakfast. Medaka was confuse to why they are exhausted but still accepted it, "Okay, let's rest. We will sleep in our mansion for tonight! I want you to see the stars that will be visible in my room" Medaka said with an excited look on her face, she wanted the others to appreciate the beautiful view that she is always seeing everynight.

They went to the children's room where many beds were already lined. Zenkichi climbed to the big bed as he was immediately knocked out. The exhaustion has caught up to him, leaving him with no choice but to sleep messily. "I feel sorry for that child, being dragged around like this" Xander said looking at Zenkichi, "Why? Isn't Zenkichi having fun with us? He should be happy right now" Medaka tilted her head in confusion, "Right now you might not understand it, but you dragging Zenkichi everywhere is bad. Please lessen it in the future." Xander said to Medaka who was even more confuse but has no choice but to nod her head.

Xander let Mashiro rest as she was also exhausted, not in body but in terms of mental health. He recalled the talk with the servant before, the proposal was a nice thing for him as the thing he wanted the most was in that village. He accepted the proposal of becoming one of the Shiranui while being the double of IIhiko Shishime. Being a double might be stupid for a being of his strength but Xander don't care about such measle things like status. He can just destroy anyone who says otherwise of his decisions. Though Xander was not permitted to meet Iihiko, he was fine with that, he would just wait until the Unknown Shiranui arc would come.

"Say, Medaka-chan. What is the purpose of your existence?" Xander asked a rather powerful question that made Medaka froze in her spot. She began thinking about the first guy she met before, that man was saying something about people live for no purpose. "I don't know.." she muttered as she looked at the air in daze. "Then you should look for it, not having a purpose for living is not good for anyone's health" Xander said while Medaka just stay in dazed. Seeing that his words couldn't reach her anymore, Xander just shook his head before going to the kitchen. He would cook something before Mashiro wake up.

The next day, everyone woke up as Zenkichi and Mashiro noticed that Medaka wasn't in her usual mood. "Medaka-chan, what's wrong?" Zenkichi asked worried about her condition. Medaka stopped staring at the air before looking at Zenkichi, "Zenkichi.. for what reason do I live? I have been ignoring that for a while now but I never really know the purpose of my existence" Medaka said making Zenkichi tilt his head in confusion, "I don't really understand some of your words but you're wrong Medaka-chan! Ever since you came in my life, everyday has been nothing but happy day. Your purpose is to bring happiness to everyone around you!" Zenkichi exclaimed some words that made Medaka's eyes shine.

"Really?" Medaka asked still unconvinced but it was fixed when Mashiro, the worst one to be asked nodded her head. "You can do it" Mashiro simply said making Medaka smile greatly. "Then I'll do my best to make people around me happy!" Medaka shouted while pumping her fist. She swear to not make anyone around her sad. Zenkichi just clapped his hands happily not knowing that his words would be the reason why Medaka became an slave to that words in the future.

Few days have passed since then, Medaka and Zenkichi are currently out as Medaka is doing something while Zenkichi is going out with his mom. They were busy so Xander and Mashiro was left in the hospital, they were quite bored before they saw two childrens sitting on the waiting chairs while waiting to be called. Xander went towards them before calling out, "Hello, are you two new here?" Xander asked while waving his hands at them. "Hm? Who're you?" The little girl asked with her eyebrow raised. "Xander Ranvil, this is Shiina Mashiro, care to introduce yourselves?" Xander said looking at both of them.

"Hello, I'm Chougasaki Gagamaru. I just arrived here minutes ago" the little boy sais while still holding book on his hands, he seemed too calm for someone who is going to a testing room. "Huh? You're really introducing yourself? I guess I gotta do it too. Shibushi Shibuki.. Nice to meet..ya!" The moment she said the last one, she also raised her bat before swinging it down to Xander. Xander didn't move from his spot as he deemed that thing as not an attack, so the bat just hit his body like how a feather fall to the ground. There was not even a shockwave from strong it is, it just placed itself on his body gently.

"Huh? Howd you do that?" Shibuki asked before throwing a punch. The punch landed on Xander's body before Shibuki used her ability to open some scars from the past of Xander. "What..?" She seemed confuse when nothing happened, "You see.. all the scars that I obtained it the past were already erased from the records. I simply 'killed' all of them" Xander explained while clenching Shibuki's shoulder breaking it in the process. "Gah!" She shouted before trying to move from her spot only to fail, she noticed that Xander's strength is unusual as it was too much for a simple child.

"What are you?!" She asked while gritting her teeth to supress the pain she is currently feeling. "Well, bullying childrens are not in my list, please make sure to know who are you challenging before trying to hit them" Xander said before giving her a light slap and backing away. The young boy was amused by their interaction, "Woah, you also have an ability?" The boy asked before getting close to Shibuki who just raised her bath and swinging it at Gagamaru. Gagamaru was forced to kneel by how heavy that swing is but there was no visible damage on his body. Shibuki was confused again as she tilted her head. "What did you do?" Shibuki asked.

"I simply redirected your blow to somewhere else. That is my ability, what is yours? He mentioned something about scars right? Is it connected to that?" The little boy asked looking at Shibuki who was pissed by how calm they were, "Tch! My ability is to open the scars of everything, whether physical scars or mental scars. I can even do this.." Shibuki smirked before touching the wall beside her. Not even a second before cracks appeared all around making the hospital collapse in the process. Gagamaru directed all of the rubbles everywhere resulting of the destruction of the hospital.

Xander and Mashiro looked at it with amused eyes, "Are you sure that's fine? Breaking the hospital that is" Mashiro asked while pointing at the ruins. "Nah, we don't care about our test anyway. We don't want to become a test subject for those old fools, we Minus do whatever we want with a smile on our faces" Shibuki grinned as Gagamaru copied her action. "Where are you going now?" Xander asked tilting his head, "Of course returned to our home, though bringing destruction everywhere is tempting too, we should probably do that in the future" Gagamaru said making Shibuki nod her head, it would be a lie if she said that she isn't tempted by that proposal.

"Minus huh.. you're quite an amusing group. I hope that you will entertain me in the future, oh and if you are looking for someone more misfortunate than you, then you should look for a man named Kumagawa Misogi." Xander said to them who were confused by that, "Kumagawa Misogi? Why is he more misfortunate than us? There is no way someone has more misfortune than us minus" Shibuki said disagreeing with Xander's words. "Yes, Minus are the most luck deprived people in this world.. and that man is the king of minus. You can say he experienced every misfortunate things in this world" Xander said gaining their interest. "Eh, so there is someone like that. I am curious, where can we find an old man like that?" Gagamaru asked.

Xander grinned at their words, "He is no old man, in fact he is just an year older than you two. I bet you would fall in love with him the moment you will meet." Xander said making them shock, "Now that sound like bullshit, how could a 3 year old young child be more unfortunate than us?" Shibuki said shaking her head as she walked away. Gagamaru also followed her lead making Xander sigh, "Why did they not believe your words, Xander?" Mashiro asked tilting her head, confused to why they just walked out. "Well, to them who experienced bad things from birth, the thought of someone experiencing more of what they were used to is mind boggling that they forced themselves to not believe it" Xander explained as he patted Mashiro's head. "Don't worry, you'll understand it in the future" Xander said.

"Hey, don't hide. Bring us to the village already. I want to meet Obi, her proposal interest me" Xander said as someone came out of the shadow. "Certainly, Lord Xander. Lady Mashiro" the servant said as they led Xander and Mashiro to a car. The two gave a last one look at the ruins of the hospital before smiling, "Medaka-chan will really hate us for this right?" Mashiro asked while Xander just shook his head. "Being by her side is too troublesome. I came to this world to make you experience not to lead that girl to a proper life" Xander said while smiling gently. Mashiro didn't respond and just snuggled to Xander who accepted it.
