Start By Becoming A Mangaka
Chapter 348: Greetings 1

Everyone went back to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

Yuuki placed Vali on the couch and healed him.

Vali opened his eyes slowly, "..Where is this?"

"Vali!! You idiot!!!" Bikou shouted at him.

Vali twitched his lips being called an idiot by him.

"You were too reckless early on," Arthur said.

"Yeah, we're only training, why are you trying to kill Nezha nyaa?" Kuroka asked.

"That is too much earlier, what if you lose your mind!" Albion also reprimanded him.

Vali ignored them and smiled. He had seen the direction that he needed to train to become stronger. He clenched his hands and would become stronger as soon as possible.

They saw him ignore them and sighed.

"I will go back, I have healed enough, you can ask Le Fay when you still feel uncomfortable or enter the hot bat," Yuuki said.

"Thank you," Vali said.

"No problem," Yuuki said.

"I will go with you, nyaa," Kuroka jumped and hugged him like a koala.

Both of them teleported together back.

Vali stood up slowly from the couch.

"Where are you going?" Bikou asked.

"Hot spring," Vali said.

Arthur and Bikou looked at each other and said, "Let's go then, we're also tired."

Fenrir followed them since he also loved the hot spring.

"Aaaah, I am alone! I want some female members!!" Le Fay complained.

The next day, Yuuki had to come to Marika's home to greet her father.

"Are you going to meet her parents?" Utaha asked.

"Yeah," Yuuki said.

"You should also visit both Yukana and Ranko too," Utaha said.

"Of course," Yuuki said.

Utaha nodded at him, "Don't die."

Yuuki turned his head at her and twitched his lips, "Do you think I will die?"

"Wel, think about it when the fiance of your daughter is dating someone else, what are you going to do?" Utaha asked.

Yuuki didn't need to answer, he knew he was hypocrisy but he was also going to be angry. He shook his head and thought he didn't have a right to get angry if that really happened. He looked at her and said, "I will give her a blessing."

Utaha smiled at him, "Then good luck to get that blessing from him."

"I will," Yuuki said and kissed her.

"Don't go home too late," Utaha said.

"Yeah, I will buy you souvenirs later," Yuuki said and left the house.

Yuuki went to Onodera Sweet Shop to buy a cake for his gift to Marika's parents. He entered the shop and saw Raku was there.

"Wel-, Aniki! What are you doing here?" Raku asked.

"I want to buy some cake before meeting Marika's parents," Yuuki said.

"Tachibana? You're going to marry her?" Raku asked.

Yuuki raised his eyebrow, "Rather than me, aren't you become more courageous now?"

Raku blushed when his older brother teased him, "Don't tease me!"

Yuuki looked around while asking, "Where is Chitoge?"

Raku sighed when he remembered her fake girlfriend. He looked at his older brother and didn't think he should tell him. Both Raku and Chitoge had talked to each other before and they also knew who they loved each other.

Raku looked at him for a while and thought that it was a good idea to let Chitoge date him. He didn't have to worry about pursuing Onodera anymore.

"Aniki, what do you think of Chitoge?" Raku asked.

Yuuki looked at him and told him in a low voice, "What is it? Do you have enough of your fake girlfriend?"

Raku sighed at him, "I can't pursue my love like this, Aniki."

Yuuki turned his head to see Onodera who was decorating the cake, "You really like her, huh?"

Raku blushed but he still nodded at him.

Yuuki smiled and slapped his shoulder, "I guess, you are finally going to become an a.d.u.l.t, I will tell dad to prepare red rice for you."

Raku felt that he was being teased by him, "Enough of that, hurry up and buy something!"

"Ichijou-kun?"

"Yes?" Both Raku and Yuuki said at the same time.

Onodera was startled when she saw both brothers were here, "Yuuki, what are you doing?"

Raku felt jealous when his older brother had been called by his first name.

"Onodera, that's not good, you should call us with each other name," Yuuki said.

"E - eh??" Onodera blushed.

"Ichijou-kun is also the name of our dad," Yuuki added.

Onodera looked at Raku and blushed, "T - then, Raku..."

Raku heard this melodic voice coming out from her mouth. He didn't believe it and thought he saw an angel this time.

"You too, calling her Onodera is just too confusing, call her Kosaki," Yuuki said to Raku.

Onodera blushed but also nodded.

Raku felt that his spring had finally come to him. He took a deep breath and called her name, "K - Kosaki."

Raku and Kosaki looked at each other and the atmosphere became very harmonious. They thought it would be perfect if both of them continued to work like this.

"Ahem, it is good that you start to call each other with the first name but can you handle your customer first?" Yuuki said with an annoyed tone.

"Oh, sorry, sorry," Both of them were blushing and started to help him to choose the cake.

Yuuki twitched his lips and felt that both of them wanted him to go back as soon as possible.

"Please, come back again!" Raku and Kosaki said at the same time.

Yuuki waved his hand and walked out of the store.

Raku and Kosaki blushed again and they were too embarrassed to talk to each other now.

'THANK YOU, ANIKI!!!' Raku thought.

Yuuki arrived in front of Marika's home. He didn't know that Marika lived in a big apartment.

"YUUKI-SAMA!!" Marika looked very happy when she saw him.

"Marika," Yuuki smiled at her.

Marika hugged one of his arms and said, "Let's enter, my father has been waiting for you."

Yuuki nodded and looked at the apartment.

"Ah, the entire top floor is my home, you can visit anytime if you want," Marika said.

"You can also visit my home if you want," Yuuki said.

"Yeah! I will do that!!" Marika said.

They were talking to each other while entering the apartment.
