Bride Of The Barrier Master Volume 4 – Kureha

He was powerful… Even more than Saku, that was for certain. “Yes, so please, there’s no need to be so cautious. I meant that as nothing other than praise, of course.” “Much appreciated.” Hana’s suspicions hadn’t abated, and one could even call her a bit cold, but Kazura didn’t take it personally. In fact, he started to chuckle.

“I’ve always wanted to meet you. I’ve heard so much from Lord Ichinomiya, after all.” “Heard…what, exactly? I just hope he didn’t run his mouth too much…” Though, knowing Saku, she figured he absolutely did. “Oh no, almost all of it is just him doting on you. The kind that’s so sweet, I worry about getting cavities.” Yep, he ran his mouth. Hana got absurdly embarrassed. Was Saku saying this stuff to anybody and everybody?

Hana suddenly became worried as well. Maybe this was Saku’s way of laying the groundwork for ensuring Hana could never leave him… “I had heard you were a cute young lady, but you really are adorable. It’s a shame we couldn’t have met a few years earlier. I might have put myself in the running before Lord Ichinomiya had his chance.” And he was a womanizer, to boot… Hana was unsure how to respond to this man who seemed to drop flatteries with every breath, but Kazura’s expression suddenly turned serious as he stroked his chin and went deep into thought.

“Actually, it might not be too late. What do you say? I can’t quite provide the life of luxury that you have as the clan lord’s bride, but my salary as an Obsidian-rank practitioner is on the higher end, so I’d say I’m quite the catch.” His dazzling grin wasn’t making this subject any less awkward. Hana’s lips stretched as she looked toward Yanagi to throw her a lifeline.

She figured that Kazura was just giving compliments to be nice to the clan lord’s wife, but this was starting to come off as insulting. “Kazura, any more, and I fear Lord Ichinomiya will kill you.” Yanagi seemed exasperated as he chided Kazura. “Well, let’s leave the jokes at that.” Just after making his expression the perfect picture of someone who wouldn’t hurt a fly, Kazura suddenly asked Hana if she could answer something he wanted to know.

Resisting the urge to sigh at having this conversation dragged on for even longer, Hana half-heartedly accepted. “What is it?” “Those around you have always mocked you for being weak. That’s a pain I understand well.” “I’m sure you do.” An elite practitioner who managed to get his hands on an obsidian pendant couldn’t possibly understand the feelings of a former washout like Hana. “But now you’ve obtained power far beyond what the people who insulted you could ever dream of.
