"Look what you've done, you idiot!"
Throwing a stack of newspapers at Naoki's face as he lay on the sofa, Rin shouted angrily with an almost tearful expression.
"How dare you directly destroy the Mirror World, even pulling down the moon! Do you know how chaotic Fuyuki City was last night! Because of you, Luvia, me, and the church side nearly died cleaning up this mess! Luvia hasn't even rested until now! Do you ever think before you act?! Don't just randomly use such high-level Magecraft!"
"Oh, oh... then thank you very much for your hard work..."
Seeing Rin's extremely intimidating aura, Naoki, who knew he was in the wrong, could only keep agreeing.
Last night—or rather, in the early morning—because it was his first time using Arcueid's power, Naoki, in his excitement, directly performed Moon Fall, destroying Pseudo-Heracles along with the Mirror World.
In terms of actual results, there was no problem. Pseudo-Heracles instantly lost all his remaining lives, and all the Class Cards were successfully collected.
But the problem was, the power of Moon Fall was too great. Although Naoki had tried to control himself so as not to unleash his full power, the impact still spread throughout Fuyuki City, including but not limited to strong tremors like an earthquake, tidal problems, damage to many buildings, fainting symptoms in nearby residents...
In short, Fuyuki City was now in complete chaos.
"I'm really sorry, is there any compensation I need to provide?" Naoki unconsciously asked, "Although I actually don't have anything to give either. The money from Old Man Jewel hasn't arrived yet, I don't have a single penny right now. If I have to mention something, it's only my Magecraft knowledge and extraordinary fighting strength."
"I'm not saying you have to compensate—although personally I really want you to go bankrupt, become a homeless person, and finally commit seppuku as an apology, but looking at the actual situation, you don't need to provide compensation." Rin's tone sounded very regretful.
No need to compensate?
Hearing those words, Gray, who had been tense all along, instantly felt relieved, but quickly she asked again: "But... is it really okay if there's no need to compensate? The losses Big Brother caused... must be huge, right?"
"Well... to put it simply, it's the same as a nuclear weapon."
Rin explained: "For the current world of magic, your brother is a super strong Magus who has mastered world-destroying level Magecraft. Everyone is worried he'll drop the moon again. Everyone is afraid of offending him, and they don't even dare to ask for compensation. If the process of discussing compensation makes him unhappy and he drops the moon again..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but Rin had clearly conveyed her meaning to both of them.
The people in the world of magic were just scared, scared that Naoki would drop the moon anytime and anywhere regardless of the situation.
"Do I look like someone who has no common sense?"
"Someone with common sense wouldn't drop the moon in the middle of a city! Reflect carefully on your own actions, you idiot!" Rin glared at the seemingly innocent Naoki with annoyance, "Just facing a Shadow Servant, was it necessary to use such earth-shattering Magecraft?"
"No need, it's just that my hands were itchy... but this time I did go too far, sorry, I'm reflecting."
Frankly speaking, Naoki lowered his head to apologize to Rin. Although it was unintentional, wrong was still wrong. He wasn't so selfish as to think he was innocent.
"Is it really unnecessary for me to compensate? My Magecraft might be able to help a little in the reconstruction."
"I told you it's unnecessary. Well, if you want to do free labor, it's up to you, I don't care either." Rin sighed resignedly, "By the way, there's one more thing I need to discuss with you. This is the final arrangement of the world of magic for you."
Naoki frowned: "Arrangement?"
"After all, you are a monster with power far exceeding a Shadow Servant, even capable of summoning the moon. The world of magic deems it necessary to monitor a dangerous person like you. Frankly, they want to place some people near you to report information about your life periodically."
"Monitors? I don't really like being watched all day."
"It's useless even if you refuse. If they can't do it openly, there will definitely be secret monitors." Rin waved her hand resignedly, "You should understand a little about those elders who can't stand any more shocks. They'll only be at ease if everything is under their own supervision."
Rin's words made Gray unconsciously look at Naoki with worry. She knew her brother didn't like this kind of thing. Although he was very willing to act within the bounds of rules and very willing to abide by them, but facing unreasonable things that others wanted to force on him, Naoki always ignored them.
'Will there be trouble?'
Naoki's silence also made Rin unconsciously tense up. She had come this time also as a semi-spokesperson. After all, Fuyuki City was the Tohsaka family's territory. As the head of the Tohsaka family, she had to come here. If Naoki refused, she would have big trouble later.
"Shouldn't Magus focus entirely on reaching the Root? Why are they so concerned about the affairs of the outside world? The Mage Association is the same in any world... Thousands of years of power struggles should be enough, right?"
Naoki's tone was somewhat helpless: "Then, who are the potential monitors? Has it been decided?"
"The Church and the Mage Association each sent one person. The Mage Association's side... is me." Rin pointed at herself, "I volunteered. Until now, you definitely don't want two more strangers near you. Besides, Fuyuki City is also the Tohsaka family's territory. Of course, I won't interfere too much in your daily life, at most I'll just call you once or twice a day. Is that okay?"
Just calling a few times to confirm the schedule, this level of supervision was indeed very loose.
"No problem?" Naoki asked, "Taking such loose monitoring measures against me, whom you consider a 'dangerous person'?"
"My monitoring won't have any effect, and you also have a real monitor, don't you?" Rin's gaze fell on Gray, "Please take good care of your brother, Gray."
"Leave it to me, Kak Rin, I will definitely take good care of Big Brother!"
If there was anyone who could control Naoki, besides Merlin who was far away in another world, only Gray, who was his housekeeper, could. Even Gray's words might have more influence than Merlin's.
Seeing Rin take such a simple, loose, even perfunctory attitude, Naoki unconsciously felt relieved: "What about the Church side? Will they directly send someone from the Burial Agency from the Holy Church headquarters?"
"You even know about that... what a pity, isn't it." Rin shook her head, "I don't know who it is either. After all, the relationship between the Church and the Mage Association hasn't been good since the beginning. It's possible that the stranger you meet one day will be him."
"I see..."
Meaning one openly and one secretly?
Naoki sighed somewhat tiredly: "Hah, I haven't even been in this world for two days and I've already caused so much trouble. Thinking about it, I've experienced too many things in the past two weeks."
"We'll discuss the parallel world later, after the important matters are settled. Next, we'll discuss personal matters—about the Class Cards."
