The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 898: Hiroshi Family

The moment Aoi learned they were going to her city, she contacted her family and informed them of the visit. By the time Klaus and his ladies landed, there was a fleet of cars ready to pick them up from the private strip where their jet had landed.

It was a quick drive to the Hiroshi mansion, where a lavish meal awaited them.

Naturally, Klaus welcomed the reception because when it came to food, he had no mercy. He liked food, so being welcomed with the finest dishes was a rather good way of greeting him.

His ladies were, of course, happy to indulge in the welcoming experience prepared by the Aoi family.

Aoi’s two sisters, Mio and Miki, were as usual around and easygoing. Tano, on the other hand, was one of the 603 to whom Klaus gave his blood.

In fact, the only people there were Aoi’s father, Ryo Hiroshi; her mother, Miko Hiroshi; and her uncle, Kenji Hiroshi, who immediately came over when he heard Klaus Hanson would be visiting.

Just like Ryo, Kenji was also a swordsman. Although he wasn’t on the same level as his brother Ryo when it came to handling his sword, he could be counted among the top twenty in the world.

He was also a war god who had been stationed in Hipok City, one of the less populated cities in the Southern Union.

Of course, Aoi’s other two brothers, aside from Tano, were now part of the soon-to-be Cavalry of Defiance. They passed Klaus’s trial and joined the 606, which now had only 603 members.

They were among the few who managed to join, despite not being students at the Celestial Mountain Academy.

Tano, of course, now had a good handle on his sword after the humiliation he went through the last time Klaus was there. So, the only ones present at the gathering were the mother, uncle, and two sisters.

Watching Klaus eat made the two sisters, Miki and Mio, giggle. It was just like yesterday when Klaus came to their mansion during the regional trials of the Celestain Mountain Academy.

Back then, Klaus showed them that while he may be a genius with a stellar reputation, when it came to food, all dignity and reputation were set aside. He was there for the food, and that was why, when they saw him eating like he had been starved for years, they couldn’t help but giggle.

”I have to ask my mother-in-law. Do you think I can get this recipe?” Klaus asked, taking a bite of his well-marinated meat.

It came from a mutated cow, one that had more than enough spiritual qi running through it.

Of course, everyone had tasted the finest dishes, but most ate them for the spiritual qi. However, what Klaus was tasting now was on an entirely different level.

Aoi’s mother smiled upon hearing Klaus’s request. Unlike how Klaus mostly jokes about many things, this request was genuine. He truly needs the recipe.

”I believe we can work something out. Of course, you can come around every now and then if you want to have more of it.”

Klaus smiled. ”I guess I will. But not to disturb you, before leaving, I would like to have another bite of this brisket. If possible, I would also take some away so as not to forget the flavour.”

”I suppose I can arrange that.” Aoi’s mother laughed and gave her daughter a kick to the leg under the table when she saw Klaus’s plate was almost empty.

Aoi blushed and refilled the plate, causing her sisters to giggle.

”Who would have thought our dear Aoi would go from being a fan to a fancy? I have to say, my dear sister, you sure know how to shoot your shot,” Miki said, causing Aoi to plant her face down, not wanting anyone to see her flustered expression.

”See who’s shy? I mean, for someone who has cut out chestless photos of Klaus in her room, being shy shouldn’t be on your calendar.” Mio, of course, had to make it worse.

Ryo Hiroshi, who knew they were just trying to disturb his baby girl, shook his head but was deep in thought. His focus wasn’t really centred on the food in front of him.

Looking at the 23 ladies sitting beside Klaus, he could tell he stood no chance against any of them.

In fact, putting his own daughter, whom he had trained less than two years ago, on a scale, he knew deep down that lasting two minutes with her would be a great achievement.

This made him wonder just what had happened to his baby girl, who was now becoming much more powerful than he was. Of course, as a father, he was happy for her, but as a warrior striving to become stronger, this display scared him greatly.

But for now, he would be a father.

”Aoi, don’t mind them. Since they choose not to go out there and find themselves a man, they can only tease you as a way of releasing stress.”

Ryo laughed, and Aoi, who was pampered by her father, felt better. She looked at her sisters and smirked, causing them to burst out laughing.

”Don’t listen to this old man, Aoi. We just happen to be Amazonians, so our life is dedicated to being warriors,” Miki said, and Mio nodded.

”Whatever makes you happy, I guess.” Aoi now felt fine and decided to eat, making sure her man was well-fed. After an hour, dinner was over, and Klaus could only smile and savour the dessert like a boss.

”I guess we will be staying here for a few days if that’s fine with you... Father-in-law?” Klaus asked, looking at Ryo, who scoffed and turned to his wife.

Of course, it had to be the wife. He knew that after Klaus sweet-talked her on how good of a cook she was, if he were to say the wrong words, she would castrate him in his sleep.

So, it’s best to leave the decision-making to the wife, who smiled and, as someone who had been charmed by Klaus’s honesty, was more than happy to accommodate him and his women.

”We have an entire mansion prepared for you and your women; you can stay for as long as you want.”

”You are the best mother-in-law.”

Ryo scoffed again and then stood up. He walked to the door and turned toward Klaus. ”Follow me.”

Klaus smiled, knowing the old codger was still uptight about the fact that he had sunk his fangs into her daughter without his permission.

”I will be back soon, ladies.” Klaus stood up and walked after Ryo. Kenji also shook his head and followed, knowing that if he wasn’t present, perhaps it would be a blood bath.
