Chapter 244: Why Haven't I Ascended To Heaven?
The Jade Dragon Flag Competition had finally ended. Mr. Matsumura's face was filled with joy the next day. There were deep dark circles under his eyes, indicating his lack of sleep the night before. He led his students and bid farewell to the students from other schools before heading back to their school.
Mizuki Sugawara and Tomoya Saito were reluctant to part ways with them.
Especially Tomoya Saito, he was shedding tears before he left, asking Kimura Kazuki to take good care of Katsuki. He shouted to Kimura Kazuki that he would take her back from Kimura Kazuki when he became more powerful. The others looked at him weirdly upon hearing that. It was fortunate that Katsuki Sugawara was not around, otherwise they reckoned that even Tomoya Saito would receive a dressing down from her. Although Katsuki Sugawara was no match for Tomoya Saito, Kimura Kazuki did not mind lending her a helping hand. He was currently in the mood of killing him with one hit and let there be an end anyway.
He did not even talk much with Katsuki Sugawara, nor did he have her contact number, how was he going to take care of her?
In the end, Tomoya Saito learned about that and handed a note through tears to Kimura Kazuki. He had written Katsuki Sugawara's contact number and email address on the note. Then, he exhorted Kimura Kazuki repeatedly, making the latter sigh heavily. He had never seen such a dummy!
Meanwhile, Chiba Shiori was standing aside with a weird expression on her face. Kumoko in particular, would have babbled the secret that she heard before to onii-chan but for Chiba Shiori covering her mouth.
After all, Katsuki Sugawara was a lesbian.
When Kimura Kazuki reached the school, he saw Principal Saito welcoming them outside, together with all the teachers and members of the student union. There was a long banner hanging at the school gate that said "A Big Welcome For The Champions, Members Of The Kendo Association!"
Other than that, there were a bunch of reporters outside the school.
Kimura Kazuki's mouth twitched. He pulled Mr. Matsumura aside and whispered, "I have some family matters to deal with, please excuse me." He pulled Kumoko along with him and left the school by hiding in the crowd before Mr. Matsumura could say anything.
He did not forget what was published in the Fukuoka Morning Post this morning.
These reporters were experts in capturing candids. They placed Harunaka's photo on the left side and his on the right, making it seem like they were looking at each other affectionately. He was extremely speechless when he saw it this morning.
Kumoko pouted. After all, she loved to be seen in public even though she had always been lonely. But onii-chan doesn't seem to like it.
Two days after that, Principal Saito called and asked him to receive his award at the school hall.
All in all, the Kendo Association had won the Jade Dragon Flag National Competition. Besides, all three categories, the male, female, and individual match were topped by participants from Sakura Kyu High School. It could be said that Sakura Kyu High School had reached its peak of fame this time. Principal Saito could already imagine the amount of students who would enrol in Sakura Kyu High School next year, and Kendo Association would definitely grow stronger in his hands. Now that they had won the Jade Dragon Flag National Competition, middle school students who were passionate about Kendo would definitely fight over each other to enrol in Sakura Kyu High School.
This was the reason why every high school signed up for the national competition. All the members of the society wanted to win the title of being a national champion because other than their personal fame, they could also contribute to their alma mater. The younger generation would look up to them when they talked about them in the future, many students would even want to go to their alma mater solely because of them. They felt good at the mere thought of it.
Being the champion of the national competition was a glory that every high school student had been pursuing. How many students had sweat, shed tears, and bled for this championship? It was beyond count.
Therefore, when Kimura Kazuki came to receive commendation at the school hall, he smiled faintly when he saw the look of admiration and adoration on the face of the students seated below the stage. His sole purpose was to fulfill Furuhashi Sakurakyu's obsessiveness, but Sakura Kyu High School was still a high school that he had to stay for three years, it was also his alma mater. In addition, he had turned over the atmosphere of the school all by himself, which was why he had a purer sentiment for Sakura Kyu High School compared to other students.
This championship had given the students a sense of loyalty for Sakura Kyu High School.
While he was pondering over it, he looked at Furuhashi Harashin who was talking beside him. He was the father of Harunaka and the others.
When he first saw him, he thought he would be a handsome middle-aged man since Harunaka and her sisters were quite good-looking. However, he was actually quite plump, both his face and his body. He looked very simple and honest when he smiled. However, Kimura Kazuki was shocked the moment Harashin spoke. He had heard before that fat people would have a good voice but he never took it seriously. It turned out that it was true.
Meanwhile, Harunaka who was on the stage, Natsui and the other two persons who were under the stage looked unbelievably at their dad. They never knew that Sakura Kyu High School was invested by their mother.
Even though the name of their school was called Sakura Kyu, it was not a rare thing to have the same name. Besides, they thought their father and aunt would never hide anything from them. Now only they knew that Sakura Kyu High School was actually a school that belonged to their own family.
The quadruplets were dazzled and unable to come back to their senses.
On the other hand, Furuhashi Harashin was still pouring out words on the stage. This commendation ceremony was obviously set up to praise the members of the Kendo Association for winning the championship. Other than giving them compliments orally, Furuhashi Harashin would not be stingy on monetary award since the glory of the national competition was hard to come by. Numerous high schools all around the nation were fighting for this one title and it was a huge surprise to Furuhashi Harashin that Sakura Kyu High School could receive such a laurel.
He was disappointed at Sakura Kyu High School initially, but Kimura Kazuki had appeared unexpectedly. Therefore, when Furuhashi Harashin stood in front of Kimura Kazuki and presented the medal to him with a smile, he looked at Kimura Kazuki receiving the medal with an emotionless face and went on saying, "In the Jade Dragon Flag National Competition, the Kendo Association had defeated all its opponents and achieved meritorious excellence under the leadership of Kimura Kazuki. Thus other than the commendation, the school decided to give an extra award of 1,000,000 yen to Kimura-san."
Kimura Kazuki finally put on a smile on his face when he heard about it. One million yen. It will amount to 66,000 RMB. Pretty good.
He had earned a total of 10,000,000 yen during the whole course of the national competition and barely escaped from poverty a year after the time travel. Kimura Kazuki let out a sigh in his heart. It really hasn't been easy.
After that, he had totally lost his interest when Furuhashi Harashin continued his lengthy speech on the stage.
The Commendation Ceremony ended at 5 P.M. Harunaka wanted to greet senpai and make small talk with him, but had to bottle it up inside her heart as senpai had already gone home. She followed Akino and the others to their father's side. They wanted to figure out what was going on!
At night, Furuhashi Sakurakyu was sitting in the house at Weier Apartment and accompanying Kumoko, but she was feeling slightly lost.
According to Kimura Kazuki, she would ascend to heaven when her wishes were fulfilled. He told her clearly about the condition she would be in and how she would feel when she ascended to heaven. She would know exactly when that moment had arrived.
After Harunaka won the championship of the national competition, Furuhashi Sakurakyu did not notice anything abnormal happening to her.
Kimura Kazuki did not pay much attention to Furuhashi Sakurakyu because in his mind, her obsessiveness had yet to be fulfilled. But in Furuhashi Sakurakyu's mind, she was supposed to have fulfilled her wishes. However, she had not ascended to heaven yet.
Hmm... What is going on? Furuhashi Sakurakyu was baffled.
