"I want a head pat too!"
As Lin Feng was picking up the cards scattered on the floor, a voice came from behind him.
"Alright, alright!"
"Hurry up and get some rest with Kaguya. Even though there's no school tomorrow, waking up early is still good."
Seeing Chika's expectant look, he reached out and rubbed her small head a few times.
"Hmph!"
Just as Lin Feng was about to leave, he saw Kaguya puffing out her cheeks and heard her soft harrumph, expressing her dissatisfaction.
After pacifying both of them, Lin Feng finally left Kaguya's room.
"Feng-kun? What were you doing in the room with those two?"
"Nothing much. Let's get back to our room too! It's getting late, don't forget we have to wake up early tomorrow."
Ai hugged Lin Feng's arm tightly as they walked back to her bedroom, leaning close to him.
He slept until dawn. By the time Lin Feng woke up, Ai had already left the room. It seemed her habit of waking up at 5 AM wouldn't be easily broken anytime soon. After all, she had maintained it for ten years.
"Kaguya-chan, an invitation arrived from Shinomiya Unyo."
Walking downstairs, Lin Feng overheard Ai and Kaguya talking.
"Shinomiya Unyo..."
Hearing the name, Kaguya knew exactly what kind of person her third-ranked brother was. He was the most vicious of the three, prioritizing violence in almost everything, and he had irreconcilable conflicts with the branch family, the Shijos.
Moreover, now that she was gradually taking control of the Shinomiya Group, Unyo—threatened from both sides—seemed unable to sit still any longer.
"I feel like this invitation is a trap, a 'Hongmen Banquet'. Kaguya-chan, should you go?"
Ai's instincts were sharp. An invitation at a time like this was definitely not good news. Her first recommendation was not to go, but then she thought this might be a good opportunity to deal with them once and for all.
"Go! Why not go?!"
"Can I borrow your Lord God to be my date and accompany me to the banquet?"
Sitting opposite Ai, Kaguya naturally wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop to avoid future trouble when she left this world. The time ratio between the two worlds would flip; thirty days in DanMachi would be only one day here.
"What do you mean 'my' Lord God? We are both in the same Familia now. We are family."
Ai looked at her Young Lady in surprise. She hadn't expected Kaguya to learn how to tease in just a few days. Good kids really do learn bad habits easily.
Walking down the stairs, Lin Feng realized only Kaguya and Ai were in the living room. Where are the other three? Still sleeping?
"Ai, Kaguya, what invitation? Let me see."
Hearing his voice, both girls turned their heads. Kaguya stood up and handed the invitation sent by Unyo's men to Lin Feng.
"Isn't this your brother? And judging by the content, it seems to be for all four siblings."
Lin Feng glanced at the invitation and knew what it was about. A pile of grandiose words, but he only needed to scan for the important parts.
"Yes. I want Lord God to accompany me."
She had already cleared it with Ai; now she just needed Lin Feng's consent.
"That's a small issue."
"Hehe!"
Seeing Lin Feng agree, Kaguya happily hugged him with both arms.
This scene made Ai a little jealous. The Young Lady had basically never hugged her, only becoming intimate recently after her change in attitude.
"Call Chika and the others down. What time is it? If they don't eat breakfast, it's bad for their health."
Seriously? Chika slept in the same room as Kaguya last night and didn't notice the person beside her was gone? She sleeps like a log.
"True. It's almost eight. On a normal school day, they'd have left for school ages ago."
Ai knew how hard her old life was—taking care of Kaguya, seeing her off to the car, and then rushing to school herself.
It took ten minutes for Ai to drag a sleepy-eyed Chika downstairs. Moeha and Kei, however, were already up when Ai knocked. They had been whispering about something, their faces flushed, and let out small screams when they heard the knock.
Ai didn't think much of it and just told them to come down for breakfast.
In the afternoon, Chika finally took Moeha and Kei home.
"Kaguya, get ready. We're going to the banquet soon."
The urgency of Unyo and his brothers was evident. Invitations were usually sent three to five days in advance, but this one was for the very next day. They were desperate.
"Ai will come with us too."
"Okay!"The venue chosen by Unyo and his brothers was a large hotel secretly under their control. By the time the invitation was sent, the hotel staff had already been replaced by their thugs.Weapons had been hidden in places difficult to spot. Upon hearing the sound of a cup shattering on the floor, his men were to rush in immediately.
This was the plan Shinomiya Unyo had arranged from the very beginning.
The hotel was situated in a newly established special zone that hadn't fully developed yet, so foot traffic was sparse. This made it easier for them to manage the subsequent events; otherwise, they wouldn't have specifically chosen this location.
Soon, three luxury cars appeared in succession around the corner ahead. Unyo immediately ordered his subordinate to check if there were any people hiding nearby.
This was to ensure everything was foolproof.
They hadn't considered—or perhaps refused to consider—that Shinomiya Kaguya truly had the attention of a God.
"Yes!"
The subordinate standing behind him immediately left the room to carry out the order.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, it seems we should go meet our lovely little sister."
"To think that in just a few days, the three of us would be suppressed by Kaguya."
Unyo laughed at himself somewhat mockingly. The age gap between him and Kaguya wasn't huge, but there was still a difference of more than five years.
If not for his ruthlessness and preference for solving problems with violence, he wouldn't have been able to snatch so much from his two older brothers, who had established their power bases long ago.
Yet Kaguya, the daughter their father Gan'an had originally disliked, had suddenly gained his approval and taken control of the Shinomiya Group as if she were destined to rule.
