Yuri, Iwasawa, and Kosaka had been watching Haru and Ayase talk to each other. They saw Haru sent out Ayase who was full of smiles and couldn't help but felt curious.
Haru felt relieved that he had taken another step in his plan. He had named his company "One Piece" because there wasn't any "One Piece" manga in this country and felt that this name was suitable since this company would become his treasure.
"You're confident in him, Haru?" Ritsu asked.
"He's quite talented," Haru said.
"I can help you alone though," Ritsu said.
"I don't want to trouble you that much," Haru said.
"Just give me a warm body and I can make you billionaire," Ritsu said.
"What are you planning with a body?" Haru asked.
"I am curious about sex," Ritsu said.
"...." Haru was wondering whether he had corrupted this artificial intelligence. "I am planning to build a body for you, but please be patient."
"Alright," Ritsu answered.
Haru saw that everyone was looking at him. "Is there something on my face?"
"....."
"What is that?" Kosaka asked.
"My financial consultant. I thought about opening an investment company to manage my own funds," Haru said.
Yuri was worried and said, "Haru. Tell me the truth that you're not going to rob a bank, right?"
"Of course not." Haru shook his head and said, "I am going to rob some countries."
"......" They were speechless when they heard his answer.
"I am joking, but I am glad that you're not angry anymore," Haru said while looking at Yuri.
Yuri's face turned red and she looked away. "H - Hmph!" She ignored him again but didn't walk away from him.
Haru shook his head and sat down with everyone. He was thinking of contacting Sanzaemon for the catering of his event later.
"Haru. What are you planning to do?" Kosaka asked.
"What do you mean?" Haru asked.
"I mean, I feel like you might want to buy a game company later," Kosaka said worriedly.
Haru was wondering whether this woman was afraid that he would leave her. He nodded and said, "I am not going to hide it from you. I am planning to buy a game company."
"What about me?" Kosaka asked.
"I thought that I should open two different game companies," Haru said.
"Two different?" Kosaka was a bit surprised.
"I can see that you don't have that much interest in smartphone games," Haru said.
"...." Kosaka didn't say anything since she really didn't have that much interest in that genre of game.
"That's why I am planning to buy the game company myself to make the smartphone game," Haru said.
"Then what about our cooperation?" Kosaka felt uncomfortable when Haru suddenly decided to leave her alone.
"Of course, I am also planning to continue. This is our dream, right? I have said that before," Haru said while holding Kosaka's hand trying to reassure her that he wouldn't leave her.
Kosaka looked at him and realized that this guy was really greedy. 'This greedy guy.' She sighed and knew that she had been trapped by him. She made up her mind and said, "Who is going to be the leader of the game company that you're going to buy?"
"It should be the technical person in that company. I am not going to change anything and only give them a game design to work with," Haru said.
"Do you have that much of an idea?" Kosaka asked.
"I have it." Haru was confident and said, "That's why you don't need to worry that I am not gonna leave you. You're irreplaceable for me." His tone was sincere while looking at her deeply.
Kosaka was red, but she didn't look away from him. "Haru...."
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
"....."
Their atmosphere was broken when they heard a loud cough by their side.
Haru and Kosaka looked that Yuri, Iwasawa, and Shiina had been looking at them.
Haru looked at them and thought. "How about we go out for a few days at the beginning of December?"
"Huh?"
Everyone seemed to be surprised when they heard him.
It was in the middle of October and Haru was quite busy since he needed to become Kirari's bodyguard. Even though he was quite free, he needed to do his job. He knew that Kirari was alright on the outside of the school, but inside the school was different. Her plan would start soon and he was ready for it.

"Is that true?" Hakuryuu asked.
"Yes. We're planning to do it in a month," Koumei said.
"Don't say anything. Keep it a secret between the four of us," Kouen said while looking at Hakuryuu with a serious expression.
Hakuryuu's body was trembling and didn't expect his step-brothers to decide to do it. He knew that he had been waiting for this time. "What about sisters?"
"Don't tell her," Kouen said.
Hakuryuu nodded and said, "Don't worry. I understand." He looked at them and asked, "But can we win?"
"Kouha's friends will help in our matter later," Koumei said.
"Kouha's friends?" Hakuryuu was curious.
"Yeah. You don't need to worry about them. All of them are very strong," Kouha said while yawning.
Hakuryuu raised his eyebrow and wanted to ask Kouha again since he had always wanted revenge on his mother. He wanted to ask him again but stopped when he heard Koumei's question.
"Hakuryuu, I want to ask you something," Kouemi said.
"Yes. Older brother," Hakuryuu said while looking at Koumei.
"Are you planning to become the king of Kou?" Koumei asked.
"....." Hakuryuu could feel pressure from three of his older brothers. He shook his head and said, "I don't plan to become a king. What I want is to destroy the woman who has stolen everything from me." He clenched his hands tightly while gnashing his teeth.
"...." Koumei, Kouha, and Kouen looked at Hakuryuu and nodded.
"You can go back now," Kouen said.
Hakuryuu nodded and walked out of this room.
"What do you think?" Kouha asked.
"You can read the future," Koumei said.
"What we can do is make it a better place for everyone in the Kou Empire," Kouen said.
Kouha and Koumei nodded in response.
They waited for the moment where they would start their fight against their queen and her organization.
