"That clearly shows that you, as her mother, do not play a single role in her upbringing." Ryan interrupted Satomi in a deep voice, "And, thank god you do not play any role. At least, she is spoiled now, I can not even imagine what, how she would have turned if you would have raised her!"

He stated promptly. 

'Oh, crap…. You have done it, Ryan.' Naomi and Satoru, both thought at once.

"Ryan..." Naomi muttered under her breath. 

Everyone's eyes were fixed on this young man who had damaged left eye, white hair with blood spots on them, a plain blue shirt which's top two buttons were undone.

"Satoru-San." Ryan looked at Satoru and bowed his head a little.

"Ryan-Kun..." Satoru's grip on his daughter's shoulders loosened a little.

'Although you have messed up your start, I am sure you will deal with her somehow… because you do not know anything about her.' Satoru thought with a smile growing over his face.

"Now who might you be to put a finger on my upbringing?! Why is an outsider like you putting his head in someone else's family matters?"

"Ah~ I might be an outsider but I still was not able to stand still while you were insulting Naomi."

"Insult? See, Kid, I do not care whose son you are, stay away from me. You might end up regretting it."

"What I will regret and what I would not; depends on me, it is my decision to make. Do not make it for me, Naomi's mother." Ryan replied in fluent Japanese.

"Tsk! What do you think you are?! You would not understand unless you learn a lesson-"

"Come on…. You do not look like a teacher and I too stop being a student after 2 O'clock."

"Puff-!" Satoru looked up, "Sorry-" he replied at his wife's angry glare.

"Keep your attitude to yourself and get the hell out of here. There is no need for you to interrupt in our family's discussion."

"Ah-hah. Then please, I would like to receive my credit for the job well done by me." Ryan pointed his thumb at his chest.

"Credit? What credit? You are just being-"

"Annoying? Irritating? Do you have any other words cause I am already sick of hearing those from you, Naomi's mother?" Ryan put up a smile and replied politely. 

"You!" She bit her lower lip and gritted her teeth.

"I, Ryan Walker, would like to receive my credit for killing the hundred of zombies and rescuing one badly injured student."

"...You…." her eyes went wide in surprise but soon turned back to normal as if nothing had happened.

"I would like my credit back. Which you have given to your own faction…. Or whatever," 

"Hah. What are you to Naomi, huh? Her boyfriend? Are you her lover? Do you love her? Boyfriend, right?" Satomi quickly changed the subject with her expressions.

"I am Naomi's friend. Nothing more… than that."

'Why the pause then?' Satoru seemed to notice Naomi's dissatisfaction too. 

"Oh~ so you are that guy huh?" she took a step forward, "And what if I said, I do not want to give you your credit? What will you do?"

"I…." Ryan replied in a deeper voice, "...nothing, I guess?" 

"Eh."

"But if that makes Naomi suffer, feel bad, have a hard time. I will surely change my way of doing work. I can not let her feel dissatisfied…. She is my friend, after all, someone, whom I can trust."

Naomi felt the hair of her arms standing up. She got Goosebumps as soon as she heard Ryan. Satoru too felt relieved after hearing it.

"You heard him, right? Now go and tell those reporters that Ryan is the one who saved the students and defeated the Mafia." Naomi took a step forward.

"Uh… yeah, Satomi-San, I think you should just give him his credit. He did something worth praise-"

"Shut. Up. Satoru." That tone sent a chill down everybody's spine. 

'What should I do now? Shall I keep arguing or give in? I do not really mind not getting the credit for what I did, in fact, I would like to stay lowkey. So if someone is taking the credit for it, thank god they are doing it. I do not want to expose myself.' Ryan thought.

"Fine." Ryant took a step forward, raised his head, "Your faction can have the credit for what I did."

"Huh? Ryan?"

"But, Ryan!" Naomi shook herself from her father's grip and went near Ryan, "How can you let this woman take the credit for something you did, by risking your life? That just is not fair!" Naomi shouted.

"It is fine, Naomi. I do not want the media to know about me and my powers anyway," Ryan replied softly under her ears.

"No, Ryan…. But still, you can not-" her words fell off midway when Ryan grabbed her hand.

Satomi's eyes fell directly on their hands. She was boiling with anger when she saw Ryan grab her daughter's- or her tool's hand.

"Ryan," Satoru had also noticed Satomi's glare at Ryan's hand. He took off from his place to warn Ryan.

But before anything, Naomi pulled her hand out of Ryan's hand on her own. 

'Sorry, Ryan.' She apologized in her mind.

'Huh?' Ryan was confused at why she pulled her hand out of his grip all of a sudden?

They have had held hands a few times before but Naomi had never reacted this way. He was confused but soon, he could only come up with a single reason, 'Her mother.' he thought. 

"I have no problem, do whatever you want." With that, Ryan turned around to leave.

"Eh…. what would have you ever done? I would have taken the credit anyway." she shrugged.

"Yeah, yeah. Go live your life, ma'am." Ryan bitterly waved his hand above his head by making his sign. 

"Ryan, wait." Naomi quickly went for his hand and Satoru grabbed his left shoulder, "Wait." 

Ryan was surprised. But decided to wait. Before leaving, Satomi gave Satoru a big lecture about what to do next.

"Make sure the media knows about it well, take care of the external affairs, make sure you impose those new laws and rules. And….. I want this dormitory to be ready as if it is a new building in three days. I am giving you…. Three days.'
