A spacious green lawn, set up with various banquet facilities, and surrounded by security personnel in suits and sunglasses.
"Looks like a banquet hosted by someone from high society." Tenya scanned the area indifferently.
Touka works as a head chef at a high-end restaurant, and to be able to invite her to personally come and prepare a meal shows that the host's identity is extraordinary.
Of course, these so-called nobles and celebrities, to Tenya, were no different from ordinary people. There was nothing remarkable about them.
With Spiritual Sense, Tenya had long since detected their arrival.
Rikka was wearing a dark blue yukata, white socks, and wooden clogs, looking dignified and elegant, giving off the feeling of a young lady.
However, the moment she spoke, the atmosphere instantly changed. "Following the guidance of fate, the Evil King's True Eye User has arrived!!"
One hand dramatically covered her forehead, while the other ade a V-sign, the classic chuunibyou pose.
"Human yukata is really hard to wear..."
Rukia was wearing a yukata for the first time, with black and pink Sakura patterns, and held a floral fan in her hand.
Her entire demeanor was absolutely stunning.
"W-What's wrong?"
"Staring at me..."
"This outfit really doesn't suit me!"
Rukia pulled at the yukata she was wearing, looking uncomfortable.
"No."
"If, wearing your Shinigami attire, your combat power is 5. Then right now, your combat power has reached at least 20!" Tenya teased.
"Are you mocking me, a Shinigami, for only having the strength of a weakling?" Rukia said angrily, clenching her fists.
"No need to be shy."
"Tonight's Rukia, her combat power is not below mine!" Rikka patted her shoulder confidently and said.
"Isn't that still just the strength of a weakling..." Rukia complained weakly.
"The banquet is about to start, let's go in quickly!"
Rikka grabbed Rukia's hand and quickly walked forward like a playful child.
Although she didn't say it out loud, she was still very happy to finally see her busy sister after a long time.
"Ladies, please stop..."
"This is a private banquet, please show us your invitation."
Being a security guard also requires having good judgment.
Although the two young girls were well-dressed and had proper appearances, their running without regard for manners did not resemble young ladies from high society.
"Rukia, the invitation."
"Huh?"
"You didn't bring it?"
"Isn't it on you?"
Rikka and Rukia looked at each other, eyes wide, and the atmosphere became awkward for a moment.
Seeing that the two girls didn't have invitations, a hint of suspicion flashed in the security guard's eyes.
But professional ethics prevented the security guard from speaking rudely, only asking further, "May I ask if you two know anyone attending the banquet?"
"Yes! We are companions of the Saint Chef!!" Rikka said seriously.
"???"
The security guard was instantly full of questions.
"Cough cough!"
"Her name is Takanashi Touka." Rukia added.
"Takanashi?"
"I don't think I've heard of this family..." The security guard frowned.
Only the prominent families from Chiba region were invited to this banquet. There was no family named Takanashi among them.
"Ladies, perhaps you've come to the wrong place?" The security guard tactfully said.
"No!"
"I can sense the aura of the Saint Chef!" Rikka said chuunibyou words, but it was an actual fact.
Under the influence of the Hogyoku, she had awakened the true Evil King's True Eye, and her spiritual perception far surpassed that of ordinary humans.
"Sense? Saint Chef?"
"You two... Are you here to cause trouble?"
The security guard's lips twitched, his patience almost wearing out, and his tone became a little unfriendly.
Tenya walked over and said, "Watch your words."
"As someone from the service industry, one should always maintain a kind and friendly attitude."
"Yes, sir..."
"I've learned a lot!!"
Although the security guard didn't recognize Tenya, from the latter's calm demeanor and the imposing aura he exuded without anger, he subconsciously mistook him for the young master of a large family.
Immediately, he didn't dare to be negligent and immediately adopted a humble bowing posture of welcome.
"Let's go in, Rikka, Rukia."
There was no self-introduction, and no extra greetings.
Tenya just led the two girls directly into the banquet passage.
"Tenya, did you just use a Sharingan genjutsu?" Rikka asked curiously.
"No, why would you think that?" Tenya asked back.
Does dealing with a mere security guard require using genjutsu?
"Then why did that guard let us in so easily?" Rikka expressed her confusion.
They clearly didn't show an invitation, so why were she and Rukia stopped, while Tenya could just swagger in?
"That's probably because of personal aura..." Rukia mused.
For example, the low-rank Shinigami guarding the Soul Society don't necessarily recognize the captains of the Gotei 13.
But for thousands of years, there has never been a case of a gate-guarding Shinigami stopping a captain.
That's simply because Captain-rank Shinigami naturally possess authority. Even without releasing their Reiatsu, they can inspire awe.
Anyone with a bit of sense wouldn't try to stop them.
"I see..."
"This ability shall be named Haki!" Rikka started creating a chuunibyou setting.
"Full name: Conqueror's Haki." Tenya added to the setting.
"So cool!" Rikka gave a thumbs-up in approval.
"Can I learn? That Conqueror's Haki!" Rukia looked very interested.
Although she didn't understand the principle behind it, she had seen with her own eyes how Tenya stood there without moving and eliminated Hollows just by using Haki.
"Impossible."
"Conqueror's Haki is an innate quality of a king and cannot be acquired through later training." Tenya explained seriously.
"I see, that's really a shame..." Rukia sighed disappointedly upon hearing this.
The three walked and talked, not deliberately lowering their voices.
Passersby who heard them gave them strange looks.
"Whose children are those three?"
"I don't know..."
"How can they talk nonsense in this kind of setting?!"
"It's simply outrageous!"
When burly, middle-aged woman's eyes fell on the slender waists of Rikka and Rukia, she felt a strong sense of jealousy.
"Hey! You three, stop right there!"
She chased after them fiercely, scrutinizing them with a judgmental gaze.
"Female Tarzan?" Rikka blurted out.
"What did you say?!"
The middle-aged woman's eyes widened.
