The next day, Theo was at the front of the Yukihime High School and he was truly impressed.
It seemed more like a university than a high school. He walked into the campus and he had to ask for directions because the school was too big and he got lost. After a while, he arrived at the Admissions Office of the school.
"Hello, I would like to apply for an admission exam?" he asked the secretary
"Sure, our admission exam from First to Third years will happen in 10 days. The application is for you or someone else?" the secretary asked.
"It is for my sister." Theo said
"Okay, you can wait a moment and I will take you to talk with the head of the office" the secretary said
Theo already waited 30 minutes when he was called into an office that was the same size as the principal's office of his school.
'That's crazy. I imagine whoever is the head of this office is more influential than my school's principal" Theo thought as he looked around
It was then that an extremely beautiful woman entered the office. She had black that went until her hips, an oval face, red cheeks, and her eyes were green like the sea.
Theo was momentarily stunned but he got hold of himself in no time.
"Good morning, my name is Theodore Gray and I am here to apply for the admission exam for my sister" Theo said without beating around the bush.
"Good morning, my name is Eshiki Asuka, the head of the Admissions Office. If you pass me the necessary documents, I can apply for an exam for her." Asuka said surprised at his antics but she was pleased nonetheless.
Asuka examined the documents and when she saw that Theo was the legal guardian of his sister, her eyes became tender as she wondered how such a young person would be responsible for another being.
"I see that everything is in order. Aurora can come to take the test in 10 days. The results of the exam will be posted on our website the next day after the test." Asuka said directly.
Theo was happy that everything went well.
He bade farewell to her as they finished the application.
Later that day Theo was training Aurora in self-defense.
"You have to always protect your arms, someone can grab your arms and have more power than you. As they can put you down and overpower you. So, what you have to do is while they go for your arms, you defend and grab theirs instead." Theo said.
"But what if someone is able to grab my arm. How do I get out?" Aurora asked.
"In that case, you have to use your whole body as leverage to defend and counterattack." Theo said as he demonstrated how to get out of the grab.
After they finished their training Theo said to her:
"I got the application for the Yukihime High School admission exam. The exam is in 10 days. If you want, I can help you study for it." Theo said tenderly
"Thank you, brother. I would love to get your help." Aurora said sweetly.
Aurora always loved expending time with her brother.
So, for the next 5 days, Theo had the same routine. He would train in the dojo in the morning and during the day he would study his knowledge for his graduation exam. And at night he would train Aurora and solve doubts she had in any subject of the admission exam.
Theo now was in his office studying the report Sam delivered him about the Fuji Jump Co. He was pleased with her work. She managed to find out that the company originally was worth over 1 million dollars but now that it was on the verge of bankruptcy, it was only worth 300k. She also managed to find out that someone made an offer for them of 150k to buy the company. But the Fuji Co. didn't answer.
Theo decided tomorrow he would go there to buy the company. He was looking forward to owning a publishing house and completing his system mission too.
The next day Theo wore jeans pants and a black shirt. He had money to buy more expensive clothes but he preferred dressing simply.
He arrived at the Fuji Jump Co. And he observed it.
It was a 4-store building that looked somewhat old but also stylish. He arrived at the front and saw a young girl that he assumed was the greeter.
"Hello, my name is Theodore Gray and I have an appointment with the Head Manager?" Theo said.
Theo wasn't like some characters he had read in some novels in his past life that seemed to like being humiliated by not being prepared so he called the company to appoint for a meeting with the manager and it was surprisingly easy.
The girl looked at the schedule that she had and indeed it had a Theodore Gray.
"Hello, if you go to the fourth floor, you will be taken to the head manager's office" the girl said with a smile.
"Thank you" Theo said with a smile.
The girl was stunned by his smile.
'He is so handsome…' she dreamed and when she was thinking about asking his number he was already gone.
Theo arrived on the fourth floor and waited 10 minutes until he was called into the office.
He entered the office and thought it was a pretty neat office. He looked at the desk of the head manager and found a child seating behind the desk. She was 1,50m and had a baby face that made one think that she was a 12yo child.
Only she wasn't a child. She was the Head Manager.
'Thank you, Sam, for your report. If I didn't know before, I would think she was a child and be rude to her' Theo thought relieved.
"Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Theodore Gray" he said while extending his hand to greet her.
"Nice to meet you too, my name is Haruno Sayuri" she said surprised as she was used to being mistaken as a child when people first meet her. Nonetheless, she was happy that she wasn't mistaken because she hated being treated as a child.
"Thank you. I came here today because I have a proposition for you, Haruno-san" Theo said formally.
The Sakura Abode Country was a mix of two clans. One had the resemblance of England (named Pendragon Clan) and the other with Japan (named Yamato Clan). Some centuries ago, the 2 clans almost went to war to claim hegemony of the land but before the war could begin. The princesses of the two clans managed to convince the clans that peace was the best path.
So, the two clans signed the peace treaty in the center of the Sakura Forest where an abode was built for the occasion. The scenery was so beautiful that they named the new alliance the Sakura Abode Alliance and many years later became a country.
Even though the clans mixed up and some traditions lost being obligatory. It was polite to refer to the Yamato Clan descendants with their tradition.
That's why Theo used her family name and an honorific.
"You can call me Sayuri, you can state your business" she said surprised. As it was rare for someone to use the Yamato traditions these days.
"I want to buy this company" he said directly expressing his intentions. As he wanted her to contact the owner of the company to state his proposition.
