I will swear to protect the beauty with my life

After serving all the customers who were eating fried noodles, Zhangye fried one portion and gave it to Shihua who had been waiting for a long time.

As a professional chef, Shihua subconsciously began to evaluate the fried noodles as soon as he received them.

It looks and smells good...and tastes delicious...

Just talking about the fried noodles, it's already at the level of a professional chef. It's incredible that he has such skills at such a young age.

"Very good, I've passed. Do you want to go to Italy with me?"

"Eh?!"

Facing Touka's invitation, Zhangye recalled Touka's glory as a chef... Chef, if you become a professional chef, it would be a very respectable and lucrative job.

Maybe this is not bad...

"Don't decide my sister's future without permission. My sister still has to go to school."

Although anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was a joke, for Zhangye, it was still very worthwhile to be happy that the food she cooked was recognized by the professional chef Shihua.

Yuta looked a little helpless.

"When did you come back? Let's talk and contact us."

Touka looked back at Yuta, and now that she was sitting down, she realized that Yuta was much more robust than before she left, and his muscles made him look even more sunny and handsome.

"Good workout, did you work out?"

"That's not the case..."

It's a good thing that her brother-in-law has become stronger, so he can better protect Rikka. Touka has no objection to this, and she even has a better impression of Yuta.

"So... there are a lot of troubles..."

Shihua seemed to have some difficulties in not telling others about her return. She looked at the beach in the distance outside the store and saw a small figure running towards them. He was holding a small wooden sword in his hand and was running happily on the beach.

And right in front of her, the chuunibyou forces led by Rikka were forming a formation with serious faces, and seemed to be very wary of her, even Ikeuchi Maki was no exception.

In the outside world, Ikeuchi Maki and Touka don't meet each other very often, but in the inner world, Touka's projection, the Saint Counselor, is a real and powerful fighter.

And Nanamiya Chion was actually meeting Juuka for the first time, but she had heard Rikka mention him many times before. According to her, the Holy Counselor was so terrifying...

“Is this the legendary Saint Conditioner?”

"No, it could be a fake."

"It could also be a separate individual death..."

"No, this feeling of oppression... is not wrong."

Touka looked at Nanamiya Chione in the team and felt a little curious. She had never seen this person before, nor had she heard about her from Rikka. Hmm... this little girl is quite pretty.

Just when the girls were on guard, Maki Ikeuchi suddenly heard footsteps behind her...not heavy, but very light, and very close.

Are you a guest?

Before Ikeuchi Maki could turn around, the footsteps behind her suddenly hurried, clanging on the wooden floor, and they were only one step away from them.

"There is a flaw!"

A delicate child's cry was heard, accompanied by the sound of an object breaking through the air. The target was... Rikka's head.

Maki Ikeuchi didn't think much about it, and without even turning her head, she suddenly stretched out her demonic right wrist and blocked it in mid-air to block the sneak attack for Rikka.

Something hit her strong arm, but Ikeuchi Maki didn't feel any pain at all. She just felt something hit her body, that's all. Looking back, she found a little girl wearing a plastic toy helmet and a children's one-piece swimsuit, holding a wooden sword in her hand. It was obvious that this sneak attack was her doing.

And now, the little girl was looking at the wooden sword that was blocked firmly with a confused look on her face, and then she looked at Ikeuchi Maki with shining eyes.

"Samurai! It's a samurai!"

Maki Ikeuchi looked at the little girl with admiration on her face, grabbed the wooden sword with her backhand, and easily took it from the little girl.

"Don't hit others with things like that, kid...where are your parents?"

Facing the child, Ikeuchi Maki was quite patient. She temporarily stopped the defensive formation with Rikka and the others. Just as she was about to squat down and talk to the little girl, she saw the little girl pass her and run towards Touka, then pounced on her and hugged her tightly.

"Tenka!"

It was not until the little girl turned around again that Ikeuchi Maki and others realized that this little girl was probably not Japanese... She had curly brown hair, fairer skin than theirs, and a distinctly European face. Her small stature and the way she hugged Touka tightly touched everyone's soft spot.

Very cute.

Ikeuchi Maki looked at the wooden sword in her hand, then looked at the little girl who was hugging Juuka tightly, and fell into deep thought...

The little girl looked a little shy, perhaps because she came to an unfamiliar environment and met strangers, which made her a little scared. She hugged Touka tightly, but her eyes were fixed on Ikeuchi Maki, on the slightly glowing cool devil's right arm, and on the wooden sword in her hand, her eyes full of admiration.

This look made Maki Ikeuchi feel somewhat useful.

"Excuse me... who is this child..."

Nibutani pointed at the cute child, wondering where the child came from, while Touka lowered her head and touched the little girl's head through the plastic helmet.

"She...she is my daughter."

The air suddenly became silent, and everyone was dumbfounded. Their brains started to work at a rapid speed, and as they worked, their brains suddenly stopped working.

The next moment, everyone's shocked voices passed through the roof and flew into the sky...

"Sister...Sister...Sister...of...Ji...hua's...daughter...?!"

"No way... so young... you can't tell at all..."

They didn't expect that Juhua, who was so young and beautiful, would have such a big daughter...

“I’m already seven years old this year.”

"Seven...seven years old?!"

"That is to say, Sister Juhua, when you were only a teenager..."

Juuka smoothed the little girl's hair and thought for a moment.

"Let me think...I think it was around 17 or 18 years old."

When these words were spoken, Nibutani, Yuta, and Ikeuchi Maki were shocked again.

She gave birth to a daughter when she was only 17 or 18 years old, and she was able to hide it for so long?!

To be honest, they doubted whether Tohka was joking, but looking at the expressionless seriousness on Tohka's face, they still felt...could it be true?

So open?

Ikeuchi Maki looked back at Rikka and found that she was standing behind everyone, with her arms folded across her chest, a look of doubt on her face, and it seemed that she was already brainstorming.

"This...are you kidding me..."

"Yeah, just kidding."

Touka admitted it very straightforwardly.

The scene caused everyone to fall into silence again. Seeing everyone with shocked faces and completely silent, Touka felt a little embarrassed and her face turned slightly red.

"This is an Italian joke...Are you scared?"

Touka blushed, which was rare, but even after the explanation, everyone was still silent.

This time I am speechless.

"Why aren't you smiling?!"

“Who can laugh!!!”

When I was free in the afternoon, I went back to read the previous chapters... From my current perspective, what I wrote in the early stage was just a bunch of shit...

The writing style was so bad that I couldn't even finish it. I forced myself to finish it. I was sighing at my own growth and at the same time... My dear readers, it was not easy for you to persevere and finish reading it. Thank you for your hard work.

Thank you for your support along the way...
