THE LECTURE

In the old Yamazaki home, Daiki faced off with his father.

Unlike the mansion in which Daiki and his family lived, the old Yamazaki house did not have the ostentatious air of wealth. However, its traditional architecture was quite amazing for the modern era. The simplicity was not seen in many parts of Mountain Ridge.

From the zen garden to the ponds with lively koi fish, the home had a quiet air of class.

"How far do you want the Yamazaki name to fall?" Elder Yamazaki asked with a strange calmness before sipping on his green tea.

Daiki looked at his father with a little apprehension. When the old man was unhappy, he would be calmer than usual, and he was already a very composed man.

Daiki could not recall a single incident in which he had raised his voice, even when he and his siblings were naughty.

His innate demeanour had a certain force of power that forced people to obey without the need for yelling.
