"By the way where did you pull the knife out from?" Ryota asked as he gave Akane's Khukuri back to her.

"It's a secret," Akane said with a smile.

Ryota didn't know what kind of relationship where they in right now. Both of them had confessed that they liked each other, then Akane threw a knife at him and finally confirmed her yandere side. Normally, he should be running away and moving to another country but here he was totally okay with her love. 'I guess we are dating now, aren't we?'

The ride stopped as they began getting out.

"You're not going to wear your disguise back?" Akane asked,

"Well from now I'll leave it to you to protect me from other girls." Ryota said with a teasing expression, "But just don't start throwing your knives at them."

"I assure you that I'll protect you with all my strength." Akane said seriously, "I think I can defend you well without using my knives."

"Okay! Okay! my sweet little yandere, I will count on you then." Ryota said as he caressed her hair as Akane stood there blushing, giving him a sweet smile.

"I am so happy!" Onodera whispered to Raku seeing Ryota and Akane together, "They look perfect for each other, don't they?"

"Yeah! but I can't help but feel a sinister vibe coming from them."

"What?"

"Oh nothing, I was just thinking how lucky Ryota is." Raku said shrugging of his previous statement as they went towards them, "See I told you it's better if you don't hide your face, no one here even recogni-"

"Kyaa!!" Before Raku could even finish his words he heard a girl scream from behind him, "Isn't he the guy from th-that advertisement!"

Her shout clearly gathered the attention of others as they began to surround them.

"Yeah! she is right. I can recognize that face anywhere."

"That's because you made the picture your wallpaper, Despo!"

"I thought the picture used a lot of photoshop but seeing him now, he's clearly more good looking in real life."

"Hey, is that girl beside him his girlfriend?"

"No, he can't be taken already, right? I even had a dream about him yesterday."

"..."

Seeing the situation getting a little out of hand Ryota and the others were quite overwhelmed being surrounded like that. Akane was a bit pissed seeing all these girls fawning over him but Ryota held her hands trying to comfort her, "Think of this as a practice for the future."

Though the words weren't the comforting words you liked to hear but Akane calmed a little knowing that this might not be the last time it happens and she can't get pissed at them every time as it wasn't worth it.

"What should we do?" Raku said as he looked around, "The crowd is only increasing and some are even taking pictures."

"What are you waiting for?" Ryota said, "Protect me and my friends."

Raku looked at Ryota weirdly wondering who he was talking to when suddenly dozens of people in the crowd came forward and formed a circle around them blocking the people getting closer to them. They were disguised in a civilian outfit as one of them turned back around, "Young-Master, please follow us."

Ryota nodded as he looked at the others who were frozen looking surprised, "I'll explain later, but let's get out of here first."

With the help of the guards, it was quite easy to push through the crowd, the moment they stepped outside the park, a black limousine with the name Arima financial Combine written on the side of it stopped in front of them. The maid he met back then came out of the car as she bowed towards him, "Please get in young-master."

Ryota nodded as he pulled along the speechless three with him into the car as they quickly got out.

"The mysterious handsome guy just got in a limousine and drove off, he might really be the prince charming I have been waiting for. But it's a shame I couldn't get his name or a selfie with him."

"Didn't you see the name, It was Arima Financial Combine. So he might not be someone normal, or is he going to be their ambassador?"

"My father was talking about a rumor that's been going around about an heir for Arima Corp, could he be that guy?"

"This is amazing. That expensive photography classes finally paid off." A guy said as he looked over at the pictures, that clearly showed him holding Akane's hand and a picture of him entering the Arima Corp. limousine "Not only does he have a girlfriend but he is related to the Arima Corp, as well. I wonder how much I can make selling these pictures but I can't deny that this pretty-boy is really good looking."

---------------------------------------------

"This is annoying." Ryota sighed as he passed over all those flashes and the clicking sound of people taking pictures, "I didn't really expect I was this famous."

"Can you explain to me what's going on?" Raku yelled snapping out of his trance.

"Don't yell." Ryota complained, "You know the last time I told you guys to not use my surname anymore? Well, it turns out my father was an Arima and due to a turn of events, I am one of the heir of Arima Financial Combine."

"So that makes you, Arima Ryota." Raku slowly said as if he was trying to understand his own sentence, "Why the hell are you so calm about it? Do you know how much of a big deal this is? And most importantly you hid it from us."

"Calm down, Ichijou-kun!" Onodera said, "I am sure Ryota-kun had his reasons."

"Not really, I just wanted to surprise you." Ryota said making a silly expression ignoring the annoyed Raku as he glanced over Akane who was just looking at him with a smile, holding her hand he looked at the maid. "Is this going to be a problem? After all, old-man said it was best to keep it a secret about us heirs."

"Master wanted to do so on the front but he had already began spreading rumors about you so people would get excited about the event." The maid said, "But he didn't expect that picture of you to go so viral, so he had already predicted that this might happen, so you have nothing to worry about."

"I understand." Ryota nodded thinking about the old man's decision which was indeed a clever one, "So are we going to announce the news?"

"No, we're still going to follow the original plan and keep quiet until the event." The maid answered, "According to master, this is going to add more mystery to the whole thing."

'That old fart...' Ryota cursed with his lips twitching.

Maid recommendation needed for Ryota:

Criteria: she needs to be from a normal anime(those slice of life), no supernatural or superpowers. And a good background would be better.
