Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Living Together

As long as Kobeni Higashiyama stayed in this house, she would never be able to live a normal life. She would be exploited by her family for the rest of her life.

So no matter what objections Kobeni’s parents had, he would definitely take Kobeni away from this house.

"How could that be allowed? Kobeni is our daughter, we worked so hard to raise her for all these years!" Shinya Higashiyama immediately objected.

"Worked hard? Do you want me to make everything you’ve done to Kobeni public and let the world judge for itself?"

Kotone Asaba sneered inwardly. This guy really had some nerve.

It could not be denied that Kobeni’s parents had indeed raised her, so he would respect Kobeni’s wishes. If Kobeni wanted to give them living expenses in the future, that would be fine.

Shinya Higashiyama immediately shut his mouth. He knew exactly how he had treated Kobeni.

"Didn’t I just say it? If Kobeni is willing in the future, she’ll naturally give you living expenses. There’s no problem with that, right? And there’s also no problem with me respecting Kobeni’s wishes and taking her away."

Kotone Asaba was too lazy to say any more nonsense. "There’s no need to say anything else. That’s how it’s going to be."

After saying that, he got up and went upstairs, preparing to take Kobeni Higashiyama back to his own home.

As for this, Shinya Higashiyama and Akira Higashiyama could only watch helplessly.

Most importantly, they did not dare do anything to Kotone Asaba. With Kotone Asaba’s identity, how could they possibly afford to provoke him?

"Kobeni, pack up the things you want to bring. From now on, you’ll live at my place."

Once he reached Kobeni’s room, Kotone Asaba said this to her.

"You already talked it over?"

The speed of it surprised Kobeni Higashiyama.

But after thinking about it, she felt that it was normal. After all, Kotone was so powerful. No matter how unwilling her parents were, they would not dare say anything.

After that, Kobeni Higashiyama took her schoolbag and school uniform, then left together with Kotone Asaba.

As for other clothes, they were all hand-me-downs from her older sisters. Usually, she wore her school uniform anyway, so she did not plan to take her sisters’ clothes with her.

Kotone Asaba also noticed that Kobeni did not have any clothes to wear, and he thought that once he had some time, he would take Kobeni to buy some new clothes.

As they walked down the road, Kobeni Higashiyama gradually realized just how bold her actions were.

They had only started dating less than a day ago, and she was already going to live with Kotone!

Thinking of this, Kobeni Higashiyama’s face instantly turned bright red.

At the same time, she also felt a little expectant. What would Kotone’s home be like?

Kotone Asaba saw Kobeni looking like this and guessed what she was thinking. He smiled slightly, but did not say anything.

After that, Kotone Asaba and Kobeni Higashiyama arrived at their destination.

Looking at the new home in front of her, Kobeni Higashiyama felt that it was very luxurious.

In terms of size, it definitely was not as big as the Higashiyama family’s house. After all, there were more than ten people in the Higashiyama family. But in terms of quality, it was much better.

For just Kotone Asaba and Kobeni Higashiyama, plus Pochita, this home was more than spacious enough.

"Kobeni, you can sleep in that room at night. This room here is mine."

Kotone Asaba pointed at the room that had always been empty.

"Ah... okay!"

Kobeni Higashiyama immediately put her things into that room.

When she came back out after putting her things away, Kotone Asaba said again, "Right, I already asked a classmate to request leave from the teacher for us. We don’t have to go to class this morning. Since we have time, I’ll take you to buy some new clothes."

"Huh? I can just wear my school uniform. I usually have to wear my uniform anyway."

Kobeni Higashiyama knew very well that Kotone would definitely have to pay again, and she felt embarrassed to keep relying on him like this.

"Don’t worry about it so much. Just think of it as a gift from me," Kotone Asaba said.

Buying clothes would not cost much money, and besides, this was not about the money. He did not want his girlfriend to have nothing to wear except her school uniform.

"Okay..."

Kobeni Higashiyama was silent for a while. Then her gaze suddenly became extremely determined.

"Um... I’ll become a Devil Hunter with you too!"

Before, her parents had told her to start off as a private Devil Hunter first, then find a way to enter Public Safety after graduating high school, because that way she could make a lot of money.

But she had been very unwilling in her heart, because she also wanted to go to college. Once she became a Public Safety Devil Hunter, she would not be able to go to college anymore.

Although even if she was unwilling, she had no choice. After graduating high school, there were only two choices placed before her, either sell herself or become a Devil Hunter. Compared to selling herself, she could only choose to become a Devil Hunter.

But now, Kobeni Higashiyama no longer had her family’s restraints. She could work part-time as a private Devil Hunter while still going to school.

And she was doing it for Kotone, not because anyone was forcing her.

She did not want to keep being completely useless to Kotone. So even if Devil Hunter was such a dangerous profession, she was still willing to do it.

Hearing Kobeni suddenly say she wanted to become a Devil Hunter surprised Kotone Asaba.

He could roughly guess why Kobeni wanted to become a Devil Hunter. It was simply because she wanted to be able to help him in some way.

Although he felt that it was not really necessary, since Kobeni wanted to do it, he would also respect Kobeni’s wishes.

"It’s fine. If you want to do it, then do it. As long as you have the ability, you can become a Devil Hunter," Kotone Asaba said.

Devil Hunter was indeed a dangerous profession, but that also depended on the person. To him, it was not particularly dangerous, and the same was true for Kobeni.

There was no need to say much about Kobeni’s strength. In the original story, there were only a handful of major characters who survived until the very end.

In the current human world of this timeline, there was nothing more dangerous than Makima, black Chainsaw Pochita, and the Darkness Devil. Yet in the original story, Kobeni had encountered all of them and still lived perfectly well.

"Then... will Kotone enter Public Safety in the future?"

Kobeni Higashiyama cared quite a lot about this.

If Kotone entered Public Safety when the time came, then of course she would want to go with him. But if that happened, she would not be able to go to college.

"You’re worried that after becoming a Public Safety Devil Hunter, you won’t be able to continue school, right?"

Kotone Asaba could tell what Kobeni was worried about.

"Yeah..."

Kobeni Higashiyama nodded. In her heart, she sighed that Kotone really was amazing. He had even guessed what she was thinking.

"Don’t worry about that. Even after entering Public Safety, you’ll still be able to go to school. When the time comes, I’ll definitely arrange it properly for you. Trust me," Kotone Asaba said.

Actually, the method was very simple. They could go to school under the pretext of carrying out a mission.

For example, a certain school was suspected of having a devil that possessed a piece of the Gun Devil’s flesh, and they had to investigate the matter.

Any random mission would do. In any case, his status in Public Safety would definitely not be low by then. It would only take a single sentence from him.

"However, in a few days, I’ll probably have to go to Tokyo Public Safety. You can focus on finishing high school for now. It won’t be too late to come to Public Safety after that."

"Huh...? That soon?"

Kobeni Higashiyama immediately felt a little sad and reluctant.

But she quickly adjusted her emotions. She did not want to make things difficult for Kotone, and in her heart, she secretly made up her mind.

There was still enough time before she graduated high school.

Enough time for her to gain the qualifications needed to enter Public Safety.
