Miku told her father that she still couldn't believe what she had discovered about herself. "I wish I had known earlier, Papa, why didn't you tell ate that you adopted me back then and I lost my memory?" Miku/Mikaelle mentioned to her father as they were inside the van heading back to the mansion. "I don't want to lose you, Miku, I consider you my own child too, and I'm afraid they will get angry with me because of what I did, I wish I had said it earlier if they thought like this. I would have been with your sister for the past decades," Raiden replied to his daughter as they dropped Shuji off at the agency earlier. "Past is past, there's nothing we can do about it, Dad. For now, it's okay, Papa, does ate live here?" Miku/Mikaelle asked her father as they both got out of the van, which the driver had parked in the garage. "Yeah, Miku, your brother and her workmates, you will temporarily take her place." Raiden said to his daughter, who turned to him," Miku will go to the agency tomorrow for another photoshoot. "Really? I have classes at our school, so I need to go back to Japan, and Mama has someone at home. It's just really a pity that we will be apart again," Miku/Mikaelle replied to her father. "There's social media and everything is high-tech there, you can talk there, ask for his social media," Raiden replied to his daughter as they entered the mansion. Miku asked her father if her sister was on her social media friend list. "None, Miku, I don't know if she has social media," Raiden replied to his daughter. "How do you contact her?" Miku/Mikaelle asked her father, and he just nodded at her, Miku read her father's mind. "She is part of a private company of ours, Miku, she is a top agent of the country's private army, please don't tell your brother she is not just a Nephilim, she also secretly helps people and captures bad guys," Raiden replied to his daughter, smiling at her. "I want to be like ate in a way that I won't just be her shadow, I want to be recognized for my own abilities and not just because I'm her sister, can I, Papa, also become an agent?" Miku/Mikaelle exclaimed to her father. From head to toe, Raiden observed his daughter, he knew this one could do what her sister could do, Raiden just didn't want what happened to his daughter, who almost died at the hands of the enemies, to happen again. "Okay, Miku, you just need to strengthen your powers and skills in fighting you're not strong enough yet, you need to get stronger I have a contact in Japan who can teach you, but only your dad and sister can help you with your powers... Miku, I won't stop you from what you want, just be careful," Raiden replied to his daughter. Miku didn't respond to what her father said, and they hugged each other. Miku thanks her family; if it weren't for them, she would have been in heaven with her mother a long time ago. Miku immediately went up to the second floor to rest and put away her things in the cabinet, while Raiden stayed on the first floor. Shuji went straight to the Sakura Modelling Agency when he was contacted by the manager and his friend. Shuji found his co-models busy with practice and photoshoots, carrying a backpack, and the people there turned to look at him. Shuji's ex-girlfriend Erika and her cousin Hyo, who were sitting next to each other, also turned to look. Shuji searched for his manager and his friend with his eyes. Shuji approached the staff to ask where their manager was. "He's in the restroom, just wait a bit, Shuji, you just got home?" the staff commented on his appearance. "Yes, I just had Papa drop me off from the airport. Our manager said he wanted to talk to me, so I went straight here," Shuji replied to the staff. The staff looked for Lixue with Shuji, knowing that Shuji's father is her godfather. "It just so happened that we also met in Palawan because that's where their family's mansion is, right? She must be busy now—we saw her with her dad, and I couldn't talk to her for long, just two or three hours a day, and then she and his dad would leave." Shuji replied. "Does that mean you stayed there?" the staff asked, Shuji immediately shook his head before answering. "We stayed at another hotel, my dad and my sister my dad didn't have the nerve to reserve at their hotel, besides, it was too late when Lixue's dad offered we were already on our way home they were really busy, honestly, Lixue could have reserved us a spot there when we met in Palawan, but she didn't do it," Shuji replied, yawning now he was feeling the fatigue from the trip. Shuji sat on the monoblock chair that he had the staff bring over. "Really busy?" the staff asked Shuji, and he nodded. "Yes, we are in the same place but we don't see each other even when my sibling and I are out for a stroll. Lixue and I only see each other when her dad calls my Papa," Shuji replied as they both turned when his friend Akatsuki called him. Akatsuki smiled as he approached his friend. "How was the rest?" Shuji asked his friend. "It's relaxing, bro that one year of hard work and the body pain disappeared immediately," Akatsuki replied to his friend. "Did you perform a miracle?" Shuji joked to his friend. Akatsuki laughed at his friend before shaking his head afterward. "Nothing! I'm not that kind of guy when I'm courting someone," Akatsuki replied to his friend. "I just said it," Shuji replied to his friend as he noticed the cousins looking at them. Akatsuki didn't answer his friend. The reason for Shuji's visit to the agency was that he was supposed to start tomorrow with his sister. The manager appeared before them and explained the reason why he called Shuji. "You and Leatrice Snow will be the new pair for the photoshoots, and Akatsuki and Erika will be the pair for the next fashion show," the manager began saying to the models and also mentioned the other pairs for the fashion show. Each model will have solo ramping after the pair ramping, this is what their gay manager told them all. "By next week, will your sister no longer be able to join the ramp, Shuji?" the manager asked Shuji as he suddenly turned his gaze. Everyone with them, including the staff, looked at Shuji when their flamboyant manager mentioned it. Erika and Hyo also approached Akatsuki, surprised by Hyo's embrace. "I'll talk to her, she's going back to Japan, manager," Shuji replied to their gay manager. "Ah...Leatrice, do you have any news about her?" the gay manager asked Shuji. Shuji repeated what he had told the staff earlier, nothing more, nothing less, although not everything was true because there were things his family needed to keep secret. They all just nodded, and some of the other models asked their gay manager. Shuji moved away from the other models, followed by his friend and Erika along with her cousin Hyo. Shuji said goodbye to go home to their mansion he was already feeling tired in his body. Shuji hasn't had a proper rest yet. He turned around when he heard his friend's call and saw his ex-girlfriend, his cousin. Shuji and Erika just exchanged glances, but Shuji didn't pay any attention to it. "Shuji, wait..." Akatsuki called to his friend. "Why did you follow me?" Shuji asked his friend. Shuji stopped and was also puzzled. "When will Leatrice be back?" Akatsuki asked his friend. I just shrugged them off and pressed for a ride on my phone. "Shuji, can we still talk?" Erika started as she approached her ex-boyfriend, who stepped back from her. Reason for Shuji to stop texting his sister who messaged him. "No, Erika, I'm happy that I met you and I was happy in our two-year relationship, but our relationship has become suffocating. I want to find myself again first," Shuji replied to his ex-girlfriend. He also thought that if Lixue wasn't ready for a relationship yet, he would wait. When the Grab taxi arrived, Shuji said goodbye to his friend and ex-girlfriend to go home to their mansion.
