Chapter 7 - Nie Li, Tatsuya, Miyuki

Tatsuya continued to keep an eye on Nie Li. They noticed the changes in his eyes when he looked towards Ning'Er when he looked towards them. It was like he knew them.

When they were talking about Ye Ziyun. Miyuki also heard that she narrowed her eyes "Tatsuya-sama, that love in his eyes seems to be more than just liking or ambitions. It is deeper."

Tatsuya believed what Miyuki said. He knew she was better at recognizing emotions than him.

"What about Lu Piao and Du Ze?" Miyuki knew Tatsuya had plans for some talented students be it from Aristocrats or Commoners. Lu Piao and Du Ze were at the front of the list.

"Let them be I am interested in seeing what will change if they are trained by Nie Li."

Miyuki chuckled "It seems they need some investment."

Tatsuya got up "I will be back."

Tatsuya walked towards Nie Li and asked "I heard you need some money?"

Nie Li suddenly felt a chill on his back when they suddenly heard a voice beside them.

Nie Li backed away spontaneously and looked around soon he saw a boy his age a little taller than him. He had Black hairs and deep-set eyes and a piercing gaze looking at him.

'Where did he come from' Nie Li was shocked. He was lost in thought when

"Nie Li" Tatsuya's voice brought him back to reality.

"Tatsuya"

"I heard you can make them powerful Demon Spiritualist if you had money would you mind if I invested some?" Tatsuya inquired.

Nie Li curiously smiled "how much can you give"

Tatsuya took out 10 million demon spirit coins from his interspacial ring "Here would this be enough"

As soon as Lu Piao saw so much money he whistled and put his hand around Nie Li's Tatsuya and said in a cheery voice "As expected of the youngest alchemist"

Even though Du Ze wanted to become stronger he thought that was too much money to give someone "Tatsuya are you sure about this?"

"It's ok. I am interested in this claim. If you can show me your progress then I will invest 100 million or more." he took out an interspacial ring and put all the money in it and threw it towards Nie Li.

Nie Li caught the ring and looked at Tatsuya with interest "what will you get in return"

Tatsuya walked towards him and patted on his shoulder while moving towards his seat "If you make progress then I will tell you"

As soon as Tatsuya left they heard a different voice

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The bell went off throughout Glory City. The class has ended.

The Holy Orchid Institute's students rushed out of the huge gates and passed through the bustling street in front. The merchants sounded off one after another.

When Tatsuya, Miyuki, Ning'Er, and Ziyun walked out. They heard the sound of vendors.

"Latest Bronze rank battle armors! With Snow Wind Patterns inscribed on them! Noble ladies and gentlemen, are you interested?" A vendor with a grey tunic greeted the crowd with so much enthusiasm. This had soon attracted the attention of many students. Bronze rank armor isn't something an ordinary student can afford. However, within the Holy Orchid Institute, there's still a lot of children of nobility. Some of them are extremely loaded, and they can sell to those rich students if they were lucky enough.

"Look, Bronze rank armor with Snow Wind Patterns inscribed on it!"

The students were excited and talked to one another. A pair of gauntlets were exuding a deep blue light. The surface was covered with mysterious carvings and revealed a faint chilling frost.

"How much is this?" One student asked in a low voice.

"Sixty thousand demon spirit coins!" The vendor said while smiling.

"Good heavens, so expensive!"

An ordinary family couldn't even accumulate sixty thousand demon spirit coins in ten years.

"This is Bronze rank armor with Snow Wind Patterns inscribed on it. The Snow Wind Pattern was drawn using the blood of a Snow Wind Banshee. The banshee was at its prime before being killed. The Snow Wind Banshee isn't easy to hunt. Their characteristics also made the gauntlets gain a strong attacking ability. This is a suitable armor for Snow Wind type Fighters or Demon Spiritualists!" The vendor bragged as he introduced the armor.

Many students looked at the pair of gauntlets with nostalgia, but they still left. Such an expensive item isn't something they can afford.

As they were talking, a figure arrived in front of the vendor.

Shen Yue also looked towards Ziyun from time to time.

"Very good, I'm lacking Bronze rank gauntlets. Wrap this Bronze rank gauntlet up for me," Shen Yue lightly said to the vendor.

"YES, YOUNG MASTER!"

The vendor immediately grinned upon hearing Shen Yue's words and quickly wrapped the gauntlet up.

"Here's sixty thousand demon spirit coins."

Shen Yue took out six demon crystal cards. A single demon crystal card represents ten thousand demon spirit coins.

He made sixty thousand demon spirit coins look light. With an 'I don't give a shit' kind of expression he placed the bronze rank gauntlets into his interspatial ring.

Several girls around him let out light muffled voices. He easily took out sixty thousand demon spirit coins, so rich! Several of the slightly pretty girls had the look in their eyes brighten up. They threw flirtatious gazes at Shen Yue. However, Shen Yue treated them as though they were invisible. He proudly looked towards Nie Li's group of three. Then, he looked towards Ye Ziyun. His eyes clearly said, 'I only have eyes for you.'

Miyuki chucked "It seems like someone is trying to get Ziyun's attention."

Ziyun pouted "I don't want attention like this."

Ning'Er was already dissatisfied with the sacred family. Seeing Shen Yue's action only increased her aversion to them "Everyone from Sacred Family is a bastard."

Tatsuya shook his head at the childish scene Ziyun was City Lord's daughter. Money was one thing she didn't lack.

He didn't pay attention to that. Rather he watched Nie Li and his actions.

After he saw them buy Soul crystal and leave for the library, Checking their Soul forms and finally Nie Li passing on the cultivation techniques.

Sometime later Tatsuya and Miyuki were sitting in their courtyard drinking Tea.

"Onii-Sama are you still watching Nie Li and others."

"Yeah, With this, I have sorted it down to few possibilities about what could have happened with Nie Li."

"Is that why you suddenly gave him 10 Million coins to collect information?"

"Not just that. What bothers me more is the mission."

Miyuki opened the status screen

Miyuki Shiba

Main Mission 2 - Help Nie Li.

"Still no change" Miyuki furrowed her brows.

"Yeah, I did give him the money but there was no change. We are not even getting a hint. Help with what or how or How many times. We basically know nothing at least last time we had an idea that we were making some progress."

"Anyway, Miyuki assign some of your people to keep an eye on Sacred Family."

Miyuki looked surprised but soon figured it out "Is it because of unusual disgust that Nie Li showed?"

Suddenly Tatsuya heard footsteps coming near. Shortly he a guard came and stood in front of them"Young Master Tatsuya, Young Lady Miyuki, I have brought the Soul Crystals you asked force."

Miyuki took the soul crystals smiled and nodded at the man "Thank You."

Tatsuya looked at the man saluting energetically as if he had gotten the biggest reward ever then looked at Miyuki and smiled.

After the guard left

Miyuki sat down beside Tatsuya "Tatsuya-sama why are you smiling?"

Tatsuya just patted her head "Nothing, just thinking as you are growing up you are becoming more and more beautiful."

Miyuki had a happy smile on her face. She tucked her hair behind her ear while blushing "I am happy that Tatsuya-sama thinks I am beautiful."

"Miyuki, why don't you try putting your soul force in the crystal" Tatsuya wanted to take a closer look at Soul Form.

Tatsuya took a sip of tea "things might start becoming more troublesome. We might not be able to live peacefully anymore"

Miyuki looked at the soul crystals in her hand she kept one while putting others away.

Tatsuya looked at the changes in Soul Crystal. He used Elemental Sight to read complete information.

Miyuki looked at her Soul Form curiously "does this have something to do with how Nie Li will make them stronger."

Tatsuya nodded "It seems soul form reflects talents better than Soul Realm. If you practice cultivation technique suitable for your Soul Form."

Miyuki clapped her hands together happily "then we should check Ning'Er and Ziyun's Soul Form. We already have many cultivation technique."

Tatsuya looked towards the direction of the library"I have an idea about how can we complete the mission."

Miyuki asked, "How?"

Tatsuya explained his plan at the end he sighed "Miyuki, I feel like things will get more troublesome. We might not be able to live peacefully anymore."

Miyuki put her hand around Tatsuya's while resting her head on his shoulder "It doesn't matter in what world as long as I have you I don't mind all the troubles that we might get in.

Tatsuya put his hand on her cheek while looking deeply into her eyes "Miyuki"

Miyuki put her hand on his and squeezed it softly "Tatsuya-Sama"

Tatsuya moved in closer to her. Miyuki gently closed the distance.

As soon as they started kissing each other softly Miyuki only felt her heart pound in her chest, her body started to go soft her knees felt weak. She could only focus on how soft his lips felt against her, how his smell invaded her.

Tatsuya didn't know what he was feeling, this was the first time he felt such strong emotions. The warm feeling of her breath, the touch of her fingers, her smell, he felt as if his mind had stopped working.

"Tatsuya-ge!! Miyuki!!" Suddenly they heard a surprised voice.
