Haru and Sumire talked for a while about which clan they should invade.
Some clans were suitable to be invaded by them, especially those clans involved in the 5th Research Institute, the 6th Research Institute, and the 8th Research Institute.
Those three institutes were suitable for them to invade. Why?
This was because the 5th Research Institute researched Material Phase Manipulation Magic, which meant it was very suitable for Haru to enter, after all, his power was water manipulation, and the 8th Research Institute was also good since it researched Four Fundamental Interactions (gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear, weak nuclear), his power was also suitable to enter this clan since he could control gravity. Still, in the end, they chose the 6th Research Institute, out of all the existing institutes, which were led by Mutsuzuka, Rokkaku, Rokugou, and Roppongi.
Why?
Even though the 6th Research Institute researched Heat Control Magic, it was said that this lab alone (apart from the Fourth Institute) had conducted more genetic engineering experiments than any other Magician Development Laboratory.
Sumire wanted to learn more about this world, and she knew that her forte was genetic engineering and medicine, which was why she thought it was better to invade one among four clans involved in the 6th Research Institute.
“But is this alright? Do you have a magic that is related to heat?” Sumire asked.
“Well, the heat can be produced by forcibly increasing the vibration at the molecular level of the target.” Haru looked at Sumire and said, “Did you forget my power? I can control the vibration, you know?” With his “Gura Gura no Mi” power, it was easy for him to create heat, so his plan to invade the clan would be smooth.
“When are we going to start?” Sumire asked after she confirmed that everything was alright.

“After we take a bath, let’s go invade them immediately.” Haru didn’t really want to waste his time and wanted to take over one of those clans immediately, but then, there was something that he needed to ask. “By the way, which is more suitable: Rokkaku Haruka, Rokugou Haruka, or Roppongi Haruka?”
“Why not Mutsuzuka?” Sumire asked.
“That clan head of that clan has quite close ties with the Yotsuba clan. I don’t really have any intention to attract the Yotsuba clan,” Haru said simply.
“Just say that the clan head is a beautiful mature woman, so you don’t want to give her trouble, right?” Sumire said without hesitation.
“…” Haru.
“Well, for your question before, it’s better to choose Rokkaku. After all, Rokkugou and Roppongi sound strange with your name,” Sumire said.
“Alright, let’s go after this,” Haru said without hesitation.
Then both of them continued to eat and went to take a bath before they started their journey to Sendai, where the Rokkaku clan was located.
With the advanced technology, a lot of information could be gotten easily, or rather, it had become quite hard to hide information of someone, which was why when Haru walked, his handsome face had always attracted the attention of a lot of people. Still, most people would only look at him from afar, but he didn’t expect someone to investigate him because of his handsome face.
In the luxurious room, mostly designed with a western-style, a beautiful woman was sitting on the chair, enjoying her afternoon tea session while staring at the beautiful garden through the glass inside her room. Still, in her mind, she was thinking about the young man that she had seen last night and became more and more curious.
*Knock!* *Knock!*
The sound of door-knocking gently was heard.
“Enter,” the woman said.
When the door was opened and an elderly man that wore a butler suit entered.
If Haru saw both the woman and the elderly man, he would be the one they had seen last night at the hotel.
“What’s wrong, Hayama? Do you have any interesting news?” The woman asked.
“Yes, Maya-sama.” The elderly man, Hayama’s name, gave a respectful bow and said, “Yes, it is interesting news.”
“Oh?” The woman, whose name was Maya, looked at the elderly man, waiting for him to say something.
“We have done research on the two people that we saw last night, and it seems that both of them are Magicians, and very interestingly, their information is like an interesting story. I can probably guess that one of them might be a very talented writer,” Hayama said.
“Writer?” The woman asked with an amused expression.
“Yes, you can see it directly, but one thing is for sure, there isn’t much data that we can get from them,” Hayama said and gave the stack of documents that he had collected.
The woman then read the data and the background story of both Haru and Sumire and couldn’t help but chuckle, feeling like it was like a story, it wasn’t perfect, so no one would think that it was forged, but rather, there was some mistake on some parts which made anyone who read it couldn’t find any fault on it. She had to admit that some parts made her nose slightly sore since the story was very moving. “Interesting, but in conclusion that they’re an orphan Magician?” After all, it wasn’t uncommon to see an orphan Magician since most Magicians would become a soldier. Still, she felt weird when she saw that those two weren’t affiliated to anyone, considering how strong they were. “Was this fake data?”
“Probably.”
“Probably?” The woman raised her eyebrow.
“One of them might be a very skilled hacker, that we can’t get their information fully, and as we talk now, most of their information is slowly disappearing…” Hayama said with a hint of amazement since he knew that one of the two people that he had seen last night might be a very skilled hacker. However, he wouldn’t expect to meet them by chance and looked at his mater, thinking that her luck was very great. After all, it was rare that they would meet such a person.
“Hmm… how about the record from the hotel? Can we get their video there?” The woman asked.
“Unfortunately, no, they left in the afternoon. As for their destination, no one really knows where they’re now.” Hayama shook his head.
“Is there some accident that might have been connected to those two people?” The woman asked.
“If I have to say that last night one of the biggest yakuza groups in the Kanto area lost a huge amount of money, but as for how they have lost that money, our investigation team was unable to track them, but if we connect this accident and those two people…” Hayama wasn’t sure what to say. Still, one thing is for sure: he knew that those two might be powerful magicians stealth-type, too. After all, both of them could enter the biggest yakuza group without anyone noticing and stole many things there. Luckily, it was a yakuza group, not their house. If it was their house, he believed that he might not be able to keep his neck, and it was also their luck that his master also happened to ask about their information.
The woman tapped her chin and was in the middle of the deep thought.
Hayama didn’t even talk and waited patiently for his master to talk.
“Well, don’t be that tense. They might be a secret magician that is cultivated by one Ten Master Clans like we do, right?” The woman said.
“As you said.” Hayama nodded.
s
“But keep track of them and try to see if you can get more information about them,” the woman said.
“Yes, Maya-sama.” Hayama gave a respectful bow, then left the room, leaving the room quietly, leaving the woman there alone.
In the world of Magicians, Maya, that name was very loud since it was the Clan Head of the Yotsuba Clan, Yotsuba Maya.
Maya sipped her tea and thought that something interesting might happen sooner.
While Maya ordered her people to investigate both Haru and Sumire, both Haru and Sumire had directly infiltrated into Rokkaku Clan easily without causing any bloodshed and became their family instantly, which somehow might shock her even more if she knew.
