"You wouldn't happen to have passed around my mother when I was conceived, would you Master Takeshiba!?"
This guy was dangerous, even though his face had a light smile, and he seemed to be joking in a jesting voice, yet he was so cold and so relentless.
He didn't seem to care even for his father's or mother's honor, as he was cold-blooded and really sharp-tongued.
The first thought that came through Master Takeshiba's mind right then and there was that this guy was dangerous.
He had thought himself to be a really capable fox, or a snake when he needed to, but this guy was so young and so close to his level.
But surely experience was something really valid, as Master Takeshiba just laughed out at his words, as he said in a fake cheery voice,
"I do remember tasting your mother, it was just that you were already born when I did. But looking at you right now, I truly regret not having the chance!"
Young Master Kisaki laughed at his words, as he turned solemn for a moment, sighed, and said,
"Sigh~! It's truly a pity isn't it?"
Master Takeshiba was a bit startled at his words, but this time he also sighed, and said truthfully,
"It really is!"
Then he seemed to be reminiscing about something that had happened in the past when he heard Young Master Kisaku say,
"You are not being nostalgic about the time with my mother are you Master Takeshiba? If you want I can pass your regards to her, and you can meet again!"
Master Takeshiba was baffled for a moment, he had never thought that this kid was so cold, and relentless, that he would offer even his own mother.
No matter the situation, or the benefit there must be a moral line to any human being. Otherwise what makes them different from animals?
Yet this kid seemed to be missing that bottom line, as even his own mother was being offered by him like a cheap whore.
Normally Master Takeshiba would think people like him as lowly animals, who would do anything for their interests, but this guy looked different, as he was so cold-blooded in everything he did.
A guy like him who knew no limits was even more dangerous than a mental person. Or it would be more exact to say that he was a sane mental person.
Either way, this type of person was the most dangerous one, as they would stop at nothing to reach their goals.
The only way to deal with such people was either subordinating them or erasing them completely from existence.
Any other option was destined to fail, or produce even bigger problems. Most probably he already had some kind of security since he had decided to come to this place and ask for a meeting with him.
He was wondering what his safety measure could be when Young Master Kisaki decided to uncovered it himself, as he said,
"I think that our bloodlines weirdly attract each other Master Takeshiba. I would have never dreamed of tasting your eldest daughter, and yet fate brought us together.
She is a truly fierce and fiery lioness that could make any man long for her even on his death-bed. It's a shame that your son-in-law can not take care of her properly!"
Master Takeshiba was startled, he had never thought that this guy's guarantee would be precisely his eldest daughter, Takeshiba Miyu.
But he wasn't that surprised, after all, his eldest son-in-law was literal trash. He was the son of the Yuuto family, and just like his father he was a peace-lover, and an idiot.
He had grown up and studied in the USA, so he lacked that sharpness, and brutality that the Young Master of a big family should have.
He was a successful businessman as he had a lot of connections to the American market, but he was a failure of a man, and husband.
Today he hadn't come to this party as he was in an important meeting in America trying to sign a new wealthy deal, while his wife was doing what she could.
He knew that he didn't want this marriage as he was in love with an American young lady, and he had been forced to marry his daughter.
In fact, he had married just for show and had already made a 2nd setup with his lover in there, yet a man doesn't let his wife act as she wanted.
No matter what, a man's wife was part of his honor, and even if he didn't touch her at all, no one should touch her.
At least this was his opinion, as he had always felt himself superior to women. While he had a lot of mistresses around, he would never allow his wife to cheat on him.
While he was thinking like this, he turned a bit solemn, as he said with a sigh,
"Sigh~! To have given birth to such a daughter, I really think I should have spilled it outside! It's truly complex what lust can do to a person!"
Then as if wanting to turn a new page altogether he said in a serious voice,
"Well leaving all this by the side, I don't think you came here to propose to marry my eldest daughter, so tell me, Kid, what did you come here for?"
Young Master Kisaki could understand his words and meaning, but he was a bit disappointed with his idol, as he seemed to have a bottom line.
In his mind, a person like them couldn't have a bottom line, they could use anything and anyone just to achieve their goals.
That was why he didn't care for his own mother, in his mind he was just a tool he could use, and if she had some worth, then he wouldn't mind using her as much as he could.
The same could be said for Takeshiba Miyu, right now she was useful to him, but if he was able to make a profit from her, he would throw her with pleasure ahead.
That was why even though he had an affair with Takeshiba Miyu he had the face, and courage to ask for the engagement with Takeshiba Aika, her little sister.
In his mind, everything had a value, everything!
Still, he didn't mind that detail much, as he just continued calmly,
"There is no need to rush Master Takeshiba, firstly let me show you the gift!"
Saying that he took a small box out of his coat's pocket, and handed it over to Master Takeshiba. The box was made out of wood and seemed like some piece of antique.
But that wasn't all there was to it, there were some really beautiful green dragons graved on top of it, as each detail seemed to have been worked to mastery.
Master Takeshiba was a bit startled by this box because he already had an idea of what it was inside his mind, it was just that he didn't expect it to be what he was thinking at the moment.
Without losing much time, he opened the box slowly, as what he had in mind appeared in front of him. it was a handmade antique knife, that he had been looking for some time now.
The truth was that he was a big fan of the handmade knives of the previous eras, and had always tried his best to secure them.
Of course, there was a reason to it, but he would never say it or accept that he had one. Even now as he was looking at the knife in his hands, his happiness had a weird serious look.
Young Master Kisaki noticed this but decided to not care about it because each person had his own weird kink or hobby.
His were women, and their screams, while for Master Takeshiba were handmade antique knives. Expensive but they could afford it.
Deciding to place this at the back of his head, he said in a solemn voice,
"My gift for you tonight Master Takeshiba are the two knives you are looking at. Each is sharper than the other, and both have their uses.
One to pierce the heart of your enemies, and the second to create your empire!"
Master Takeshiba had been too focused on the knife, as there was something he needed to check while that knife was on his hands, but hearing those words, his attention turned towards his guest.
He could clearly understand what Young Master Kisaki meant by gifting him two knives. And the truth was that he was truly interested in it.
If he didn't have an option like Eric already, he might have been tempted by the offer. After all, with someone like Kisaki Haoru by his side, he was assured to accomplish his dream.
The only problem was that, if he didn't accept this proposal then he would always have to look behind his back, so he didn't die without knowing how.
A double edge sword was really good to kill the enemy, but one had to make sure that he didn't kill himself on the way.
Furthermore, Young Master Kisaki wasn't able to offer him what Eric could. Only the three potions he was able to produce were already something that the kid in front of him could never give.
But still, he didn't show his thoughts on his face, as he looked him in the eye and said,
"And what does the other knife in my hand ask as a tribute?"
Young Master Kisaki seemed to have already been convinced that this had no way to fail as he said,
"Simple things actually, to enter the shadow of the Takeshiba tree, and a place from where to look at the world from the top!"
A normal person would have choked hearing those words, but Master Takeshiba seemed to have expected it, as he said,
"And how would you become part of the tree kid? Don't tell me you want me to ask my elder daughter to divorce, and marry her to you, do you?"
But just as he had finished his words, he heard Kisaki Haoru answer,
"No, I can't ask you that! But you don't have only one daughter, do you, Master Takeshiba?"
