Chapter 275
They didn't have to wait long before Yukinoshita Yukino returned to the Chiba residence.
Just as she walked through the door and saw her sister and mother, Yukinoshita Yukino was still a bit uneasy.
With her sister's intelligence, she must have guessed how she obtained her power, right?
Would she be criticized?
Yukinoshita Yukino glanced nervously at her mother's stern face and sighed helplessly in her heart.
However...
She didn't regret it.
After sitting down, Yukinoshita Haruno didn't waste words and said directly, "Yukino, show Mom what you can do."
Yukinoshita Yukino fell silent.
Yukinoshita Ruka shot Yukinoshita Haruno a glare.
Haruno was showing less and less reverence toward her.
The two of them didn't speak, just stared straight at Yukinoshita Yukino.
After being stared at by the two for a while, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't hold out any longer.
She wouldn't be able to avoid this day sooner or later anyway.
Yukinoshita Yukino sighed silently, then raised her hand, and a snowflake rose from her palm out of thin air!
"Hiss... cough, cough!!"
Yukinoshita Ruka gasped, but because the ice and snow in Yukinoshita Yukino's palm were so cold, she accidentally choked on the cold air.
Seeing this, Yukinoshita Yukino hurriedly withdrew her ice and snow power.
Yukinoshita Ruka coughed for a while, still feeling cold all over, and couldn't help but shiver.
Then she looked at Yukino in disbelief and exclaimed, "What Haruno said was actually true?!"
Her youngest daughter had really become a supernatural power user?!!
Yukinoshita Yukino remained silent, but her heart was complicated.
It was still...
The first time she had seen her mother lose her composure like this.
However...
What she was more worried about was her mother's questioning and condemnation.
Selling oneself to a devil in exchange for power—no mother could accept that, right?
Yukinoshita Ruka calmed her complex emotions and then thought of what Haruno had said earlier.
Paying a price in exchange for supernatural power?
So what had Yukino paid?
Seeing Yukinoshita Yukino's nervous appearance, she had a rough guess.
She was a bit angry, but also a bit relieved.
Yukino was actually capable of doing something like this?
Was this still the youngest daughter she knew?
As the matriarch of the Yukinoshita family, Yukinoshita Ruka quickly calmed down, and her anger faded just as fast.
Besides, she was only angry because her daughter hadn't consulted the family.
She and Haruno had the same idea.
Since things had reached this point, the Yukinoshita family had to firmly grasp this opportunity through Yukino!
In any case, under normal circumstances, she wouldn't see any possibility for the Yukinoshita family to advance further.
It was better to lean toward the supernatural and find another way!
Perhaps their Yukinoshita family would also become a high-and-mighty existence in human society!
"Yukino, you did well this time!"
Yukinoshita Ruka smiled at Yukinoshita Yukino.
Yukinoshita Yukino: "?"
Yukinoshita Yukino was a bit confused.
W-what was going on?
Mother wasn't angry?
Instead, she was...
Encouraging and supportive?
Her expression was a bit stiff, and she felt a bit depressed.
Mother really didn't care about her, did she?
"Yukino, can you talk to us in detail?"
Yukinoshita Ruka naturally saw her emotions, but now that it concerned the major affairs of the Yukinoshita family, she couldn't worry about Yukino's feelings.
Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a moment, then said, "I need to ask the president for instructions."
What could be said and what couldn't be said had to be decided by Lin En.
It was true that a daughter grown up couldn't be kept; she was already siding with outsiders so quickly?
Yukinoshita Ruka's eyes were complex.
Soon, having received Lin En's approval, Yukinoshita Yukino briefly explained the situation regarding devils and the Familia.
Of course, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't reveal a single word about the Other World, the Blessing system, or the special devils.
Even if they were her family, they weren't members of the Familia.
"I see..."
Yukinoshita Haruno and Yukinoshita Ruka looked enlightened.
They didn't have any angry feelings about Yukino becoming a devil's Familia member.
Rather than marrying some poor boy in the future, it was better to give herself to a devil and gain power in exchange.
Of course, the most important thing was...
Yukino was now a devil too...
However...
Didn't Mr. Lin En have a bit too many Familia members?
And the key was that they were all female!
Yukinoshita Ruka frowned as she looked Yukino over.
She was indeed quite cute, but...
That figure that was hard to describe...
Who could she compete against?
Yukinoshita Yukino felt the malice coming from her mother.
She crossed her arms in front of her chest with an expressionless face.
Seeing this, Yukinoshita Ruka withdrew her gaze, thought for a moment, and then issued the highest directive.
"Yukino's existence has made me re-decide the future development plan of the Yukinoshita family!"
Yukinoshita Ruka returned to a dignified posture, her face once again serious, and she said in a deep voice:
"Our Yukinoshita family must, must, must be tied to Mr. Lin En's chariot!"
Yukinoshita Haruno was not surprised at all.
From the moment she came over, she knew what choice her mother would make.
Yukinoshita Yukino was a bit silent.
However, she had no feelings of resistance.
After becoming a Familia member, she knew deeply of Lin En's and the Familia's power and greatness.
That her mother could make such a decision actually made her feel fortunate.
"However..."
Yukinoshita Ruka hesitated, then looked at Yukino again, and finally sighed helplessly.
"With just Yukino, our Yukinoshita family's status with Mr. Lin En might not be high enough."
She thought for a moment and said, "Haruno, you should also go and request to join Mr. Lin En's Familia."
Yukinoshita Haruno: "..."
