After looking at the kid for longer than he should, Keitaro took his satchel and made his way toward where he felt the presence of the Zenin clan head. He had a bunch of very important pills to deliver to the old man.
As he entered the area, he could feel Naobito Zenin's presence, the man had the presence of a clan head that was for sure, but the pressure felt pretty light to Keitaro.
It probably had a lot to do with the very simple fact that...He was so far from Naobito it wasn't even funny, he could probably kill the man 10 times over before the man would have any time to react.
It was like comparing the speed of sound to lightning, he was just so laughably faster.
As he was even faster than lightning, at full speed, Ie, when he is teleporting, some could even say he traveled faster than light, the only thing really slowing down his speed is the simple fact that his reaction time needed to be up the par but that was about it.
Keitaro pondered a bit on that, using the lightning to stimulate his senses and the wind to further boost his speed, he could technically get a lot faster than lightning, still slower than light, though he could react to attacks that moved at the speed of light.
His reaction time was out of this world.
As Keitaro pushed the door open, he was greeted by the sight of Naobito lounging on a low wooden Bench, a bottle of sake in his and in his empty hand, another bottle of Sake could be seen.
Sheesh, this was an alcoholic through and through.
His gaze met Keitaro, he seemed like he had expected him, which was well to be expected as Keitaro had basically told the man he was coming in advance.
"Keitaro," The man greeted, Keitaro watched as the man placed his bottle of sake aside.
"Where are they" The man said cutting straight to the point with no need for pointless chatter.
"You may be my senior, but they are something called manners, I wished you had them," Keitaro said nonchalantly.
Whatever drunken state the man was in vanished.
Ah yes, he forgot, this man in front of him could kill the entire Zenin clan before he even would have time to finish drinking from his sake, probably even faster if he had this place marked.
Though Keitaro did not continue on his threat, he just let out a chuckle, he got close to the man before placing the satchel on the table between them.
"The batch is ready as promised. High potency, same quality as last time."
"And please do remember, I am not your subordinate, I would not want for us to disagree," Keitaro said with a small smile, from Naobito's point of view, he looked like the devil himself like this but he who cares?
The man opened the Satchel and examined the pills in there, he could practically feel the faint glow from them.
The power that the pill seemed to exude was all there.
"Excellent," he muttered. "Your work never disappoints."
While the man was thinking of the quality of those pills. They were like always, basically perfect.
Keitaro feeling like this was a good time as any, decided to talk about the person that had caught his attention while he was in the Zenin clan compound.
"I saw two girls in the garden on my way here," he began, his tone casual. "One of them seemed... unique. Green hair, a lot of potential, even if it's not conventional."
The man's eyes seemed to darken a bit, he probably knew who those 2 girls were, though he didn't seem particularly interested.
He reached for his sake bottle before proceeding to chug all of it down in one swig.
He then opened his mouth and said.
"Ogi girls. Twin daughters of that fool Ogi. As useless as they come. One doesn't even have cursed energy—an absolute waste of Zenin blood. The other are barely competent enough to call a sorcerer."
"You say that as if the strongest Zenin wasn't a man with no curse energy"
That seemed to shut down the man a bit.
"And you acting like this man sound did not possess the ten shadow, it hard dealing with people stuck in the past," Keitaro said sighing a bit.
"Untap potential or not, those 2 are a waste of Zenin blood"
Keitaro crossed his arms. "And their parents? Won't they have something to say about this?"
Keitaro said those words because the way, the man made it sound, it felt like he was ready to gift the girl up for free.
"Ogi? That spineless drunkard will agree to anything if it means he doesn't have to deal with their failures. Do you think he cares about his daughters? He'd probably thank you for taking them off his hands."
.....
Well isn't that just sweet?
Now, time for him to speak to some parents about adopting some kids, he sure hoped, the parents would at least be concerned about their kids.
At least just a bit.
