Kryptonian: Man of Steel
Chapter 1100 The Wrong World
The next morning, the sun shone through the cracks of the delicate paper sliding door, and sprinkled in Saeko Busujima's neat bedroom. The air was filled with the faint scent of cherry blossoms, and the occasional bird calls from outside the window intertwined into a peaceful picture.
However, this tranquility was soon broken by a rapid phone ring.
Saeko Busujima slowly opened her eyes from meditation, and her deep eyes flashed with the calmness and sharpness unique to kendo masters. She got up lightly and walked to the living room to answer the phone.
On the other end of the phone, there was a long-lost and familiar voice-her father, Shinichiro Busujima.
"Hello, is this Saeko?"
On the other end of the phone, Shinichiro Busujima's voice was more concerned and missed his daughter.
"Yes, father, why did you call suddenly?"
Saeko Busujima's voice was calm and polite, although she was surprised by this sudden contact.
Only then did Saeko Busujima realize that Luther was not lying. He was really introduced by her father. However, her father vaguely said that Luther was very mysterious, so Saeko Busujima tried every means to build a good relationship with him.
"Father, why did you do this? Who is Luther?"
Saeko Busujima asked directly.
On the other end of the phone, Shinichiro Busujima was silent for a while, as if he was considering his words.
"Luther is a very complicated person. His background and abilities are beyond the understanding of ordinary people. The reason why I introduced him to you is because I think you may be able to establish a special connection between you. Of course, this is not to force you to have any form of communication with him, but I hope you can keep an open mind to understand and accept him."
"I hope you can try to contact him and establish a friendly relationship."
"So, do you want me to marry him?"
Saeko Busujima asked directly again. There was no hesitation or shyness in her tone, but instead revealed a maturity and calmness beyond her age.
As a traditional Yamato Nadeshiko, she was not opposed to marriage. However, Saeko Busujima was not an ordinary boudoir girl. There was an unknown sharpness in her eyes, which was a temperament honed by long-term rigorous martial arts training and innate fighting instinct.
Her violent tendencies and tyrannical nature did not come from malice, but from the desire and control of power in her heart. This trait made her look out of place among her peers, and she had never had real close contact with men so far, let alone dating for the purpose of marriage.
In this island country, marriage is a common means to consolidate the family's status and expand influence.
Many schools regard their daughters as a medium for recruiting sons-in-law. Although biological sons are important, blood ties cannot be changed. Whether they are dragons or insects can only be left to fate; but sons-in-law are different. He can be carefully selected from many excellent candidates and can even become the heir of the family.
Such practices are not uncommon in island countries, and have even become a fashion.
Some chaebol founders even publicly stated that they would rather have a daughter than a son, because having a daughter means they can freely choose the "ideal son".
But Saeko Busujima's father was not like this. He had long noticed the talent hidden in his daughter, which was a kind of sharpness and strength beyond ordinary people, as well as a deep understanding of kendo.
So he decided to break the tradition and train his daughter as an heir, instead of just treating her as a tool for marriage like other families.
In the process of Saeko Busujima's growth, he devoted countless efforts, from the most basic swordsmanship practice to complex tactical layout, to the cultivation of the mind, every link was personally guided and strictly required.
His expectation for Saeko Busujima was far more than becoming an excellent swordsman. He hoped that she could become the spiritual leader of the future of Busujima swordsmanship and lead the school to new glory.
On the other end of the phone, Shinichiro Busujima was silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words.
"Saeko, you know, I never regarded you as a tool for marriage."
"The word marriage may be too serious, but it is undeniable that I do hope that you can maintain a good relationship with Luther. As for how the future will develop, it depends on your own fate."
"In this turbulent era, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy. Moreover, Luther's ability may help you or even the entire Busujima family one day in the future."
Hearing this, Busujima Saeko's heart could not help but ripple.
She knew her father's character very well. He never easily evaluated people so highly, and would not easily pin the fate of the family on others.
Luther's appearance obviously caused a lot of waves in his father's heart.
"I understand, father. I will try to understand Luther, but the final decision is still mine."
Bukujima Saeko's voice was firm and powerful. She would not be easily swayed by anyone, including her father.
After hanging up the phone, Busujima Saeko sat alone on the tatami in the living room, lost in thought. She recalled the education she had received since childhood and the high hopes her father had placed on her.
As the eldest daughter of the Busujima family, she had been trained as the future head of the family since childhood.
Kendo, tea ceremony, flower arrangement, calligraphy... She strived to be the best in every skill, not only for the glory of the family, but also to prove her own value.
However, growing up in such a traditional and strict family environment, Saeko Busujima's character inevitably has a tendency towards violence and tyranny.
Her talent in kendo makes her almost invincible among her peers, but at the same time, it also makes her have a kind of indescribable contempt for the weak.
This character makes her always keep a certain distance in interpersonal communication, not to mention establishing close relationships with men.
The call from Shinichiro Busujima made her have an unprecedented curiosity and desire to explore Luther.
She wanted to know what secrets this mysterious man was hiding, and whether he could help her in the future.
After Luther arranged his identity and background, he didn't care, because he would develop on his own.
"Be careful."
Luther grabbed a girl, and before the other party could react, a sign fell from the sky and hit her in front of her. If she had just continued to move forward, she would have been hit.
This made the high school girl wearing a white headband and pantyhose very scared.
"Thank you, sir."
The girl hurriedly thanked Luther.
Luther looked at the girl in front of him.
“You’re welcome.”
