Chapter 1834 - I Don't Mind Being Your Friend, But You Want To Become My Grandpa?

Of course, Kudo couldn't tell what Haru's words meant, but he was quite surprised when he heard the police had already come. He raised his eyebrow and asked, "So you have expected this problem?"

"Yes." Haru nodded.

"So why didn't you tell the committee?" Kudo asked.

"Because even the excellency Kudo isn't perfect and can't even tell there's a rat in this competition." Haru pointed his finger at the staff member whose face he stomped and said, "If I tell you, can you guarantee everyone's safety? It'll cause even more chaos later, and they'll do something crazier."

"...."

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard Haru's words since he dared to talk like this to Kudo Retsu, who was known as the leader among the Magicians in Japan.

If Haru knew what they were thinking, he could only shake his head since, in his mind, Kudo was just an old fossil. Sooner or later, this old man would die, and soon, it would be the turn of Magicians around his age to control this world.

Everyone was very nervous at that moment, but...

"Fwahahaha!" Kudo laughed very hard at that moment.

"....."

"That's true. I'm not perfect. You have done a good job, so can you tell me what this person had done before the police came?" Kudo asked.

Haru took the CAD on his back and threw it to Kudo.

Kudo easily caught the CAD with his hand and observed it for a while. "Indeed, there are Golden Electron Silkworms inside."

"!!!" The staff member whose face was stomped was startled when he heard Kudo's words.

Golden Electron Silkworms is an SB magic or magic that uses spirits as a medium. It passes across connections to invade electronic devices. It's magic that disables precision weaponry. The silkworms don't rewrite the process itself. Instead, they interfere with the output signal and may even alter the signal. These delays spell activation by hampering electronic mechanisms without triggering OS or anti-virus programs. Prior to identifying the Golden Electron Silkworms, Japanese forces suffered terribly under its effects.

"I've seen this before. While I was still in service, the Far Eastern Army's Magicians frequently used these." Kudo looked at Haru and asked, "Were you aware of this?"

Mizuki didn't intend to talk since she was too nervous and left everything to Haru.

Haru also wouldn't let Mizuki talk since he wasn't sure what this girl would say. "No. However, I was able to see that within the system, I designed something resembling a virus infiltrated inside."

"I see." Kudo nodded with a smile, then said, "Then I'll leave this person to you, and I'll take care of the committee so something similar won't happen again in the future." He didn't even glance at the man whose head was stomped by Haru and kept looking at him all the time with a smile.

Haru wanted to tell Kudo not to worry since the No Head Dragon would disappear tonight, but in the end, he said, "Then I'll leave the committee members to you."

"Good." Kudo nodded, then looked at the committee chairman with an expressionless gaze. "For someone on the operating committee to be able to perform illegal modifications, this is a scandal of unprecedented proportions. Save your excuses for later. I want a full explanation, committee chairman."

The committee chairman's body was shaking. His face was full of fear.

Kudo then looked at Haru again and smiled. "Are you satisfied, Rokkaku Haruka-kun? I have saved you some trouble."

"It's your duty, of course. You need to do this. However, I'll thank you regardless since you save me from some trouble, and I don't need to handle the committee chairman by myself," Haru said while glancing at the committee chairman lightly with a smile.

The committee chairman dropped on the ground directly since his legs were weak at that moment.

"By the way, do you have a fiancee already, Rokakku Haruka-kun?" Kudo asked.

"Just call me, Haru, Mr. Kudo." But then Haru felt weird by this question and said, "No."

"I have a grand-niece around your age. How about you marry each other?" Kudo asked.

"......."

Haru's lips twitched, Mizuki was in shock, and everyone in the tent was dumbfounded.

Haru could see that this guy was persistent, so...

"I don't have a fiancee, but..." Haru then pulled Mizuki on his arms and hugged her waist tenderly, placing his head on her shoulder and saying, "As you can see."

Mizuki's face was so red that her head almost exploded at that moment. She then looked at Haru nervously and shyly and asked, "Ha - Haru?"

"Help me a bit, Mizuki. This old guy is troublesome," Haru whispered.

Mizuki nodded gently since she knew what Kudo had asked Haru was a very troublesome thing. She also didn't really like Kudo, who suddenly asked Haru to be engaged to his granddaughter.

"Is she someone from Numbers?" Kudo asked.

"No," Haru said.

"Then just marry her too," Kudo said.

"......"

Kudo smiled and said, "You think that I don't know that you have seduced many girls. If you like any girls, just get them."

"......."

"...It's my first time for someone to say something like that to me," Haru said with a speechless expression.

"Unlike most heirs who act like a good boy, I like you since you show your true nature, and the way you handle the problem is also good. If you don't like someone around your age, I also have another granddaughter, but she's a bit older than you. If you don't mind, why don't you meet her and have a tea or something," Kudo said with a smile.

"........" Haru was too speechless to say anything.

Not only Haru, but everyone in the tent was also lost for words, but the identity of both Kudo and Haru wasn't something they could offend, so they could only stand there silently.

"Haru!"

Suddenly Erika's voice was heard, and a group of police also entered the tent.

Haru then kicked the staff that tried to sabotage CAD, making him pass out. "Here's the guy. You can also be committed to Mr. Kudo on how to handle this problem."

"Mr. Kudo?"

Erika and the police group turned, and they were surprised when they saw Kudo was there too.

Kudo nodded with a smile and said, "I'll cooperate with all of you here." He then looked at the random staff and said, "Bring this guy with us."

"Ye - Yes!" They quickly nodded and didn't dare to question Kudo's order.

Kudo was about to go but stopped and said, "If you're interested in my granddaughter, you can visit my house in the future, Haru." He then smiled and left together with a group of staff and the group of police, leaving everyone who was lost for words at that moment.

"..."

"Haru, Mizuki, why do you two hug each other?" Erika asked with a frown.

"........." Haru and Mizuki.
