This coaching is not right.

Chairman Sakayanagi pondered inwardly, but deliberately feigned displeasure: "Uncle Toshiaki, Chizuko, you're actually spying on me?"

Sakayanagi Toshiaki leaned back, his expression more relaxed, his tone gentle, showing no sign of tension at all because of his reprimand: "Narimori, of course we believe you. We're only listening to you to ensure the fairness of the assessment and to prevent you from giving your grandniece Arisu too many hints."

His little finger unconsciously stirred the swirl in the teacup in front of him, his tone relaxed, "If you think this is going too far, then we'll have to ask you to stay here for now, and let Akihiko convey the rules."

Chairman Sakayanagi paused slightly, a sense of unease rising within him. He abruptly looked up, his gaze fixed on them: "Uncle Toshiaki, what do you mean by this?"

Sakayanagi Toshiaki smiled slightly and said softly, "Don't worry, this is only temporary. We will send Sakayanagi Akihiko to impersonate you and continue the assessment; they won't know. Once the assessment is over, we will let you leave immediately." His tone was gentle, but there was no hint of compromise in his words.

Sakayanagi Chizuko gently placed the teacup on the table, the bottom of the cup making a soft rubbing sound as it touched the surface. "Yes, head of the family." She lightly stroked the rim of the cup with her index finger. "You've seen Akihiko's ability before. His disguise is perfect, and besides, your body is still intact. There won't be any accidents."

Chairman Sakayanagi's face grew increasingly grim. He had initially thought they were just testing Arisu, but now it seemed they intended to seize power.

He was a little unsure.

However, he didn't let the atmosphere remain tense. Instead, he spoke in a deep voice, "What if I disagree?"

At the same time, he kept his eyes fixed on them, observing their attitude.

Sakayanagi Toshiaki chuckled lightly: "Narimori, we don't want to make things difficult for you."

The fingers moved more and more slowly, the atmosphere growing increasingly tense. "But for the sake of the bigger picture, we have to do this. I hope you understand."

Seeing that Chairman Sakayanagi's expression was still grim and he showed no sign of compromising, he continued, "If you, Narumi, don't agree, we'll have to ask Nobuno for help."

Chairman Sakayanagi's expression grew even more unpleasant.

Nobuno Sakayanagi possesses the ability to seal spirits, with the best effect on sealing similar abilities, and the effect on other abilities being secondary.

For them, having Nobuno ban his "words become law" is basically equivalent to treating him like a fish on a chopping board, to be kneaded at will.

"Are you really going to go this far?"

Before Toshiaki Sakayanagi could respond, Nobuno Sakayanagi emerged from the shadows and said, "Naromaru-nii, I'm sorry, your soul will be temporarily confined here until the assessment is over."

When Sakayanagi Shigemori saw that Sakayanagi Toshiaki had actually sent Sakayanagi Nobuno specifically to have him activate his special ability, he flew into a rage: "Sakayanagi Nobuno, Sakayanagi Toshiaki, what do you mean by this? Are you planning a rebellion?"

Nobuno Sakayanagi smiled slightly and said softly, "Narimori-nii, this is to ensure the fairness of the assessment. Please don't get too excited." He stepped forward, a dim light shining on him. "After all, the greatest sincerity we can show is that you still have energy and mental strength."

As he spoke, he walked up to Chairman Sakayanagi, extended his hand, and a faint glow appeared on his fingertips. "Come on, Narumi-nii, let's shake hands." His tone was calm, but it left no room for refusal. "After all, we'll all feel more at ease if your superpower is temporarily sealed."

Sakayanagi Shigemori gritted his teeth, "Are you really going to go this far?"

“My energy is definitely not as good as yours, Cheng Shou, and I’ve suppressed your special abilities, so you don’t have to worry about Mingyan doing anything reckless. You’ll feel more at ease then, right?”

Chairman Sakayanagi's expression remained grim, but he had to admit that there was some truth to what he said.

However, what he was worried about was not that Sakayanagi Akihiko would use the power of "words becoming law", but that he would discover that he did not have the power of "words becoming law".

So, in a sense, Nobuno Sakayanagi's actions actually helped him.

But he didn't give a friendly look; he just stretched out his hand with a gloomy expression: "It seems I have no other choice."

Nobuno Sakayanagi smiled slightly: "Narimori-nii, thank you for your trust."

"Hmph, I hope you won't disappoint me."

He stretched out his hand, his fingertips gleaming faintly. "Definitely, definitely."

The moment his hand grasped Sakayanagi Shigemori's, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from his palm, and energy surged forth like a tidal wave.

This energy was not violent, but rather precisely and restrainedly invaded Chairman Sakayanagi's mental body, blocking the flow of mental energy, and, through some mysterious connection, quietly sealed off the operation of his supernatural abilities.

However, he was not the kind of supernatural being they imagined.

Therefore, by sealing off routes according to the paths of spiritual abilities, some managed to slip through the net.

He subtly sensed it in his mind.

If he were to forcefully turn against them now, he should be able to regain control of his body and unleash at least a third of his power.

For him, that's enough to get him back to where he was before the ban.

But his expression changed drastically; he pursed his lips, feigning shock that was about to spill out.

Nobuno Sakayanagi smiled slightly and thanked him again: "Naromaru-nii, thank you for your trust in me." His tone had returned to a calm one, a stark contrast to his previous sharp demeanor.

Then, he turned to look into the shadows: "Alright, Akihiko Sakayanagi, you can come out now."

As soon as he finished speaking, a person slowly walked out of the shadows; it was Akihiko Sakayanagi.

With his signature grin on his face, he swaggered over to Sakayanagi Narumi, his smile full of mischief and teasing. "Narumi-nii, don't be so serious." He leaned close to Sakayanagi Narumi's ear and whispered, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of your body and your niece." His breath brushed against Sakayanagi Narumi's ear, carrying a slight coolness, yet it made Sakayanagi Narumi's brows furrow involuntarily.

At the same time, Akihiko Sakayanagi's energy began to cover the surface of Narumi Sakayanagi's skin.

The energy, like a light veil, gently and delicately adhered to Sakayanagi Narumi's skin, slowly seeping in.

He narrowed his eyes, intently observing the flow of energy, his spiritual body subtly changing under its nourishment.

His facial features gradually became blurred, as if shrouded in a thin mist, before gradually becoming clearer, and he was no different from Sakayanagi Narimori.

His facial features, physique, and even subtle expressions were exactly the same as Sakayanagi Narimori's, making it almost impossible to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

Those eyes, once lively and spirited, now held a calm and profound depth unique to Sakayanagi Narumi, with only the occasional glint of cunning hinting at his true identity.

After completing his transformation, Akihiko Sakayanagi turned slightly to the side and nodded slightly to the crowd, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Then, he turned to Chairman Sakayanagi and nodded at him, saying, "Naromaru, I'm going to play with your body now, so you'd better be able to sit still."
