"Great Ancestor, I am honored to be called by your divine grace."
Matsuo first kneeled before the Great Ancestor and lowered his head, touching the floor with it.
He looked at Frank and Harumi, asking them to do the same.
The two looked at one another and only kneeled a bit.
"Fufu, there's no reason to kneel, dear, come here." Said the Great Ancestor. "I've known you since you were a mischievous little child, Matsuo. You have truly grown a lot. But you're also our most talented member, and the future of the clan might one day belong to you."
"T-Thanks…" Matsuo muttered, feeling embarrassed.
The trio walked forward and sat down in front of the Ancestor. There weren't any seats though, they had to sit down over the carpet.
