The Legacy System

The situation got even harder for them when they heard Young Master Takeshiba Yuto say,

"Brother-in-law you can deal with this situation as you see fit, you have my full support!"

They were doomed. If Eric wanted to destroy their lives for their disrespect towards him, he could, and they wouldn't be able to do anything to defend themselves.

But contrary to their worst expectations, they heard Eric say,

"Well, we don't have to make this a bigger issue than it already is brother-in-law, as the personnel isn't guilty of this one idiot's faults.

This guy will be the only one who will assume responsibility for this, as I will think of his punishment later, but now we have a more important thing, or more important idiot to take care of, to be more precise!

How do you think we should deal with him, brother-in-law? After all, he is your good friend at the end of the day!"

Even though Eric and Young Master Takeshiba seemed to be really close due to their way of speaking towards each other, or even acting, they clearly had their reservations towards each other.

Young Master Takeshiba Yuto was on Eric's blacklist, and also the person who was trying to take one of his women from him so there could never be a good relationship with him.

On the other side, Eric was Takeshiba Yuto's ex-enemy, and also a possible threat to him, and his plans, so he was on high alert against him.

So, one could say that if the Oscars would be given for acting in real life, then surely these two would have a tiebreak and share it in half.

While their talk seemed really close and cringeworthy, they were continuously trying to test and play each other with their words.

Earlier Young Master Takeshiba had tried to make Eric owe him a small favor, as he was even throwing the security personnel into the flames, but now it was his time.

Eric had left the responsibility of punishing his 'good friend' to him. While he didn't like this guy, he was surely a useful chess piece and there surely were other ways he could use him.

At the same time, he couldn't let him go easily, otherwise, it would be the same as offending Eric himself, and his belief in him.

Not that he cared much, but for appearance's sake he couldn't do it. So he was stuck in between a rock and a hard place.

To make matters more complex, the guards had taken off the Red Alert, and everything inside the building was working once again, so the elevators rushing to this place, arrived just in time.

As soon as the first elevator opened up, the red, bruised, and bloodied Young Master Shiba came out of the elevator, with clear fury written all over his face.

He had thought that the guards had taken Eric and his team into custody, so he would just come here and use his status to take him away and teach him a good lesson.

So while he was angry, he was in high spirits about what was to come. Only to come out of the elevator and be dumbfounded by the scene in front of him. 

Eric seemed to be talking with his 'good friend' Young Master Takeshiba, and they seemed a bit too friendly, while the Captain that had helped him earlier was in the 'monster's' hands with a gun to his head.

The guards seemed to not only not captured Eric, but they also seemed to look at him with grateful looks.

This scene didn't make sense, he ran towards his 'good friend' as he said in a loud voice,

"Brother Takeshiba, why are you talking in a friendly manner, with this brute piece of trash. Do you know what he did to me!?"

But he got a reaction he would have never expected, as Young Master Takeshiba gave him a tight slap, as he said with a fuming voice,

"You fu*ker, just what did you say to my brother-in-law!? I was trying to make him forgive you, but you come here and do something like this!

Why the fu*k don't you use your brain for a moment, and consider the situation!"

His words stunned not only him but also all the crowd of Young Master coming out of the elevator, as none of them expected something like this to happen.

If what they heard was true, then all their high and mighty attitude of earlier was just useless crappy attitude.

While Eric might come from a poor background, and even inexistent one, the fact that he had married into the Takeshiba family, was enough to make him have a higher standing than any one of them.

As the whole crowd was still startled and shocked by what they heard, Eric added salt to the injury as he said with a calm voice,

"Oh, brother-in-law I am not the only one he offended, as he offended even these ladies, I am sure you already know this, but they are agents of the Special Unit."

He did that as he showed towards Tatsuya Minami and Inuhara Hina. Only now was Young Master Takeshiba Yuto able to have a look at the other people beside Eric, and he was more than startled.

He wasn't startled by their beauty, but from the fact that Tatsuya Minami was supposed to be his professor in University, as he looked towards her and said with surprise,

"Professor Tatsuya, you…"

He was cut short though, as Tatsuya Minami was clearly in a bad mood, as she said,

"I am no longer a Professor in the Tokyo University, Young Master Takeshiba, that was just a cover for me as I was on a mission.

From now on I am the head of the security personnel of your brother-in-law sent by the Special Unit. But I must accept I didn't expect to encounter your 'good friend' downstairs and be treated like a cheap prostitute!"

Young Master Takeshiba was shocked by what he just heard, this fu*ker had truly messed up with the wrong people, as the block he had hit was truly big.

While the Special Unit was supposed to be a secret agency, they had decided to take their head out of the shadows, so they could acquire more public recognition and support if possible.

It was for this reason, that Tatsuya Minami could use her identity so easily, and openly, to state her ground.

After hearing that, Young Master Takeshiba understood that his 'good friend' had no salvation, and he could only try and save him by including his father in all of this.

With these thoughts in mind, he turned towards his personal secretary as he said with a slight sigh,

"Sigh~! Call his father, and explain to him everything that happened. Tell him that if he wants to settle this he better come, apologize, and compensate well!

The rest is on his hands!"

Then turning towards Eric, he made a slight bow, as he said,

"Brother-in-law I am really sorry for this guy's behavior, and words. But please let's try to make big issues small, and small issues disappear, as I will make sure you get a sufficient explanation for this."

Hearing those words Eric didn't even stop to think about it, as he said,

"Since brother-in-law has spoken such, I have no reason to bother about this anymore, and will leave it in your hands!"

With that he made a sign towards Inuhara Hina to release the guy she had in her custody, to show that he had truly left everything in Young Master Takeshiba's hands.

The truth was that he was hoping for something like this to happen more from now on, as like this the compensations he would receive would be a huge boost to his capital, and development.

With the Takeshiba family name backing him up, no one would dare to offend him, and not apologize and compensate.

At the moment, money was a big concern for him, as he needed a lot of money to develop his forces, and power so that he would be able to survive, and have a stable footing after the S-day.

On the other hand, Young Master Takeshiba could only curse his 'good friend' for being such a good for nothing, as he not only had made troubles but had also forced him to ask for a favor.

While it didn't look like it, right now Eric was doing him a favor, that he would have to repay in the future.

Considering this matter finished, Eric changed the topic as he said,

"Well letting this unsavory situation behind our backs, you must know why I am here today brother-in-law!"

Young Master Takeshiba could ask for nothing more than this, as he did the same and said,

"Yes brother-in-law, I have already prepared all the best to choose from, as I will personally accompany you to have a look at them."

With that said, he took a look towards the other Young Masters that had come here with Young Master Shiba, as he said,

"Well Gentlemen I am sorry for the created situation, my staff will immediately be at your disposal, so it can take care of you, and your needs in my Real Estate Agency!"

While he wasn't calling on them for watching the show, he surely wanted to rip them a bit of their skin for watching it.

In this situation, none of them could leave the place without having a look around, or buying something. Otherwise, it would be an offense to Young Master Takeshiba and Eric.

They couldn't say that they were there to watch a good show could they? After all, each of these figures was one they didn't dare to offend.

With that taken care of, Young Master Takeshiba accompanied Eric towards his own office…
