Yato watched Keiichi and Sakura with a smile.
"Master, you were very generous to them," Yerin commented about the price of the items Sakura and Keiichi bought, especially the skill book: Magic Eyes.
"Well, it's just a small gift," He replied.
The Magic Eyes could easily cost over 100k points, but Yato was very generous with them. Well, he was in a good mood.
"Now they can defeat that lizard if they make a good strategy," Yerin commented.
Basmakal's speed would still be a big problem for both of them. But with a good strategy, they could win.
"Well, they'll have an opportunity to test this," Yato said. "It's time for them to come home."
Yerin placed her paws on his chest. "Meow."
Her eyes were watery, and she was asking for affection.
"You never get tired of it, right?" Yato hugged her.
"Meow." Her expression showed happiness to see her goal achieved.

Sakura felt a sense of relief upon seeing her room. She had a feeling she hadn't been back to her room in years.
"Sakura, come to have your breakfast." Chiyo entered the room. "...Sakura?"
"Onee-Chan!!!" Sakura jumped into her arms as she cried.
"S-Sakura- What's Happened?!" Chiyo was worried, thinking that something serious had happened.
Sakura was silent as she sobbed. She just wanted to keep feeling the familiar warmth her sister exuded.
*Sigh!*
Chiyo sighed, concern evident on her face.
"...I-I had a nightmare," Sakura said in an almost inaudible tone.
"No worries. It'll be okay." She stroked her pink hair affectionately.
-
Sakura ate her breakfast with a smile on her face. She missed this quiet life.
*Ring!* *Ring!*
Her phone rang, and she answered it with a curious expression.
"Moshi Moshi."
"Boss! I have great news!" A female voice came from the phone. The voice belongs to Sakura's company CEO, i.e. her assistant.
"Huh? What happened?" Sakura asked.
"Sky-Chat has already surpassed 500 million downloads! It's a record!"
"Ehhh?!" Sakura exclaimed, surprised to hear the news. She didn't expect to hit 500 million downloads so fast.
"Boss, didn't you say you had another app coming out? I think this is the best time."
"Alright, I'll finish it." Sakura hung up after finishing the subject.
"What do you think?" She asked Yato.
"You should launch the video-sharing app. After that, it's checkmate. Nobody can stop you." Yato replied. "Besides, you won't be able to keep your identity hidden for long."
"Well, I don't mind revealing my identity after that." Sakura got up and went towards her room.
"I already have the app almost ready, it will be easy to finish."

Chiyo got out of the car and looked at the big mansion in front of her. This mansion is where her parents live.
*Sigh!*
After entering the mansion, she saw a man and a woman sitting on the luxurious sofa in the living room. They looked as if they were waiting for Chiyo. Anyone who saw the inside of the house would no doubt be surprised at the rich they had.
"Greetings, Otou-san, Okaa-san." Chiyo greeted her parents.
"Chiyo, sit down." Her father said.
His name is Koji Kanami. He is the current leader of the Kanami family. His appearance is that of a well-groomed elderly man. His hair was gray ash and he wore thin glasses.
"We called you here to talk business." Her mother talked about why she was called here.
Her name is Mayoko Kanami. She is also the leader of the Kanami family. Despite being a middle-aged woman, she looked young.
Mayoko and Koji were responsible for the Kanami family's rise in the business, although Chiyo was a great help too. The Kanami family eventually became one of the most powerful families in the country, and one of the richest as well.
"Business?" Chiyo showed a curious expression.
"Look this." Koji took out his cell phone and handed it to her.
"Is that… Sky-Chat?" Chiyo frowned.
"Exactly. I want you to buy the company that made this app. I also want you to find the person behind this company." Koji said with a serious expression.
Mayoko had said that this app could revolutionize the media. He thought she was overreacting, but surprisingly, Sky-Chat was growing at an incredible rate, taking him by surprise.
Koji and Mayoko had an urgent trip to take, so they decided to leave that matter to Chiyo.
"I've heard that this company is not open for negotiations," Chiyo replied, trying to get her parents to give up.
"It doesn't matter. If they don't want to sell, you can force them." Koji replied.
The Kanami family is very powerful, so they had a lot of methods for dealing with small companies.
"...All right." In fact, she won't do any of that, because that company belonged to Sakura. However, she couldn't protect her forever; sooner or later her parents will find out.
"We're going on a trip, so I hope you'll take care of that," Mayoko said.
"Aren't you going to talk to Sakura?" Chiyo asked with a frown.
"That ungrateful girl doesn't need to know that." Mayoko retorted.
"...How long are you going to stay in this little game? Sakura is also your daughter." Chiyo's voice became gravelly, indicating her annoyance.
"Sakura almost caused serious damage to the entire family. Her current condition is a consequence of her actions." Koji replied with an impassive expression.
"She was just a kid!!!" Chiyo exclaimed impatiently.
"It doesn't change what she did." Koji retorted.
When Sakura was a child, she was responsible for a serious accident that happened in the Kanami family. At the time, Koji and Mayoko were furious with her, nearly deserting her from the family. After that, she went to live with Chiyo, her older sister. However, despite not being kicked out of the family, she lost the position of an heiress.
Chiyo clenched her fists. She knew this discussion would lead nowhere, so she decided to walk away.
"Don't let us down, Chiyo," Koji said as he watched her leave.
