Chapter 171 - Why Did Things Have To Be So Complicated?



"But that doesn\'t give you the right to treat your daughter like a tool." I guess this was just being hypocritical of me. I knew this woman didn\'t think of her daughter as nothing more than a tool and yet, I couldn\'t accept reality. 

Marg was behind me, grabbing my shirt slightly. I guess this scenario was a bit nostalgic to her. 

"A tool?" She chuckled loudly. "Well, you\'re right. But now that she\'s ruined, I can\'t even marry her off to a bald bastard."

\'Hey, just because a person\'s bald doesn\'t mean they\'re bad.\' I didn\'t know why but that kind of stung. 

I sighed.. My saber was kind of in the middle of something, so I couldn\'t just whip up a sword. "Marg, can I have your saber?"

"Sure."

I was glad she brought hers with her even on her date. I\'d bought mine too but that was just out of habit. 

I turned on the saber and it glowed in purple. This was good but it reminded me of a lot of bad times: being cut thrice bad times. Anyway, I went to the bunny girl, sliced open the ropes, and almost freed her up. 

"Can you stand?"

She nodded. I unclogged her mouth and cut all the ropes. She did stand, for two seconds and was about to fall face first. I again grabbed her, carried her to the old man, and let him take care of her for the time being. 

The boss bunny didn\'t do anything in particular meanwhile. 

Though this girl was free to talk, she didn\'t. Instead, just her eyes streamed. And now, I had a bit of a stain on my shirt. Oh boy, Merin would really throw a fit once I got back. 

Sigh. 

"I know this is a family thing for you guys and I\'m an outsider, but- are you crazy, do you need me to take you to the hospital?" Because what sort of monster would treat their kids like this? My family had nothing but villains and even they weren\'t half as evil to their enemies as this woman was to her own daughter. 

Oh actually, Branny had a bad habit of torturing strong-willed girls in his free time and adding them to his harem. 

Never mind. 

But was this whole family just full of manipulating assholes?

The woman just glared.  "I run a company. I can\'t afford to be soft. And what are you? Her father? Her master? Her lover? You\'re nobody to her. And can you really afford to cross paths with the international light saber federation!?"

I sighed again. "Look woman, my uncle owns one-tenth of the world. My cousin destroys three or four cities on a monthly basis. I have other cousins who literally run countries through the shadows and I\'m going to start a war with the Battlesuins by the end of this month. You seriously think your measly company would be a threat to me or my family?"

She grimaced but her glare was still here. "Then what? What will I do with her? She has no value and you expect me to just smile and keep feeding her forever!?"

"Can you clean?" Marg asked the girl, totally ignoring all this. I was glad she wasn\'t feeling too bad. 

The girl was silent for a moment and then she nodded. 

Marg pulled my sleeve. "I know it\'s asking too much, but let\'s have her in our house for now, and if she turns out like her mother, we\'ll kick her out on the streets," Marg whispered and she also made sure no one but me heard her. "They manipulated you and I can\'t forgive them. Let\'s just have her in our house for now." 

Was it me or was she mad at both of them? I had a feeling she definitely wasn\'t doing this from the goodness of her heart. 

I nodded. 

And now Marg came forward and stood in front of me. "We\'ll hire her as a maid. She\'ll stay with us."

The woman grinded her teeth. "I\'d rather kill her. She\'d already caused enough problems."

"Well good for you." I grinned and made a bit of plasma on my hand. I threw it straight at the woman, obviously, I made sure it didn\'t hit her, but she at least felt the heat. "I can just kill you all and then all the problem would be solved right?"

Half of her face got immediately burned. Just a mild burn and she was going to recover eventually, it still should have been painful though. But this was just a warning shot. 

This building was the tallest, so the explosion outside didn\'t cause anyone any trouble. I couldn\'t say the same about the falling glass shards though.

Oops.

She still stayed quiet and was about to make a phone call. A bit of electricity streamed out of her but she remained calm. 

"Look, you don\'t want her and you don\'t her to burden you. Good for you. But I\'m moving to a new house, so we\'ll need a maid. Consider herself to be dead to you. Actually, we\'ll make the papers legal. She\'s no longer your daughter." I grinned. "Or would you like me to destroy this place- You\'re whole damn company?" I glared very intently and then smiled "Either works for me."

I didn\'t know why but lately my bluffing skills had improved. 

The woman thought for a second, and then put the phone down. "Fine."

Was it me, or was this a bit easier than I thought? It wasn\'t like this was the outcome this woman desired, right?

Right? 

Well, that was that. \'Wait, doesn\'t that mean, I\'ll have to worry about earning more now?\'

More drag. 

Marg had a smile though and so did the geezer. The girl, however, just cried. 

Without wasting time, we just strolled out. I did catch the boss bunny grinning slightly though. 

I had a bad feeling about that. Just how messed up was this family?

But anyway, if Marg\'s words were right, it meant she wouldn\'t hesitate to discard our new maid if she ever proved to be a hindrance. And she explicitly took her in just to take revenge on her for manipulating me. I didn\'t like the idea, but I didn\'t have anything better to do.

We were a villainous family, so I guess she was just following in my family\'s footsteps. I really wished she didn\'t though.
