The disposal of the Shindai family was quickly carried out.
Most of the informed parties and stakeholders were controlled by Rosen, with only a few able to retain their own will.
Those individuals were temporarily left in the Shindai family by Rosen, and out of consideration for Shindai Aiyi, they continued to enjoy the Shindai family's resources. Of course, they certainly wouldn't be able to live as idly as they did now in the future.
Zhoufang Youxi sent the message back.
Zhoufang Yanqing immediately sent congratulations and asked if any other assistance was needed.
Rosen didn't have any particular ideas.
After all, his control ability was very useful, and ordinary people couldn't resist him at all.
After dealing with the internal affairs of the Shindai family, Rosen planned to deal with the other stakeholders in the political arena and other business groups only after he had captured all the Soul-Snatchers in one fell swoop.
Therefore, from now until tomorrow, there would be a period of calm.
"I… I'll go prepare meals for the esteemed sirs."
It was Shindai Aiyi's father who spoke.
This man was considered one of the more innocent and pitiful people in the Shindai family.
Firstly, he wasn't a member of the Shindai family by birth, but had married into it as a live-in son-in-law.
Thus, he only learned about Taisui Xingjun after marrying in.
Secondly, Shindai Aiyi was his daughter. When Shindai Sougen chose Shindai Aiyi to be Taisui Xingjun's bride, he strongly opposed it.
But as a result, Shindai Sougen cut off one of his hands.
His son, Shindai Aiyi's elder brother, was able to leave the Shindai family to care for Shindai Aiyi, which was also the result of his efforts.
Shindai Sougen turned a blind eye.
Anyway, the children this man bore would eventually become pawns for the Soul-Snatchers to exchange for benefits with him.
However, later, his eldest son was accidentally killed by a vengeful spirit attracted by Shindai Aiyi, and his second son was possessed by Shindai Sougen, his soul even eaten, leading to his complete death. Now, only Shindai Aiyi remained as his sole offspring.
Rosen handed over the power of disposition to Shindai Aiyi.
This kind-hearted girl forgave many people.
"Tsk, that's the bad thing about large families. You can't make your own decisions about anything."
Yotsuya Miko complained.
"It's not just large families; in any family with a bit of power, children rarely have a say."
Sakurajima Mai strongly agreed.
If it weren't for Rosen, she and her mother would have found it very difficult to reconcile.
"Rich families are really tough."
Kato Megumi, whose family situation was average, had always lived a very ordinary life, so she couldn't experience any dramatic ups and downs at all.
"Huh? I feel like my fantasy is shattered. Everything in TV shows is so good."
Yurikawa Hana said.
"You know that's a TV show, right?"
Yotsuya Miko was quite speechless.
"Who isn't? If it weren't for the Divine Lord, my family's situation would be similar. I wouldn't have any say in my future choices. But at least it's much better than the Shindai family, who kept a ghost without knowing it, and even worshipped it like a god."
Zhoufang Youxi sighed faintly.
Seeing this.
Baoyue Xiaoxiao also fell silent.
She was very satisfied with her family. Although not wealthy, it was very warm, with parents who loved her. It was just a pity that everything disappeared due to a car accident caused by an evil spirit.
Her father became a Buddha, but her mother's departed soul had never been found.
In order to find answers, she resolutely embarked on the path of a ghost trainer.
"This child… has also suffered greatly."
Baoyue Yongzi stroked Baoyue Xiaoxiao's hair, speaking gently.
Because she couldn't bear to watch Baoyue Xiaoxiao live alone, she volunteered to take care of the child.
Although they were not yet Rosen's dependents, their fates had changed because of him.
After all.
If Baoyue Xiaoxiao were to face Taisui Xingjun alone, it would be almost impossible for her to win.
And after seeing Taisui Xingjun's true strength, Xiaoxiao also understood that even if she brought all her graduates, she could at most only injure Taisui Xingjun.
Moreover.
If Taisui Xingjun were to attack her with full force, she would only die faster.
"Let's update our ability values."
After everyone had their emotional moment, Rosen said.
"I'll go first."
Yotsuya Miko volunteered.
.....
Contractor: Yotsuya Miko]
Class: Low-level Divine Messenger]
Strength: e412 → c652
Durability: e455 → c655
Dexterity: e425 → c685
Agility: f378 → d588
Divine Power: c689 → a889
Skills...]
Yotsuya Miko was surprised when she saw her ability values: "My Divine Power actually rose to A! All attributes still increased by two hundred, it doesn't seem like much of an improvement."
Shindai Aiyi: "Wow! So amazing!"
....
Contractor: Yurikawa Hana]
Class: Low-level Divine Messenger
Strength: f385 → d585
Durability: f368 → d578
Dexterity: f334 → d544
Agility: f312 → d552
Divine Power: b795 → s915
Skills...
When it was Yurikawa Hana's turn, everyone gathered around, and they were all a little surprised to see the conspicuous S-rank Divine Power value.
Shindai Aiyi: "Wow! It's actually S-rank, isn't that the highest level attribute?!"
Yurikawa Hana: "Hehe, not really. It's just that this one increased quickly, but my other ability values are much slower than Miko's."
....
Contractor: Sakurajima Mai
Class: Low-level Divine Messenger
Strength: e434 → c654
Durability: e458 → c678
Dexterity: e429 → c639
Agility: e484 → c694
Divine Power: d561 → b771
Sakurajima Mai looked at her ability values, and from her slightly furrowed brow, it seemed she wasn't particularly satisfied with her improvement.
"The increase in Divine Power is a bit too slow."
"It's normal. After all, although your skills are used frequently, the consumption isn't very high. But this speed isn't slow either, 153."
Rosen comforted her.
Sakurajima Mai nodded.
She naturally knew the reason.
However, with others for comparison, she still subconsciously wanted to be a little ahead.
...
Contractor: Zhoufang Youxi
Class: Low-level Divine Messenger
Strength: f354 → d564
Durability: f305 → d515
Dexterity: f311 → d521
Agility: f300 → d500
Divine Power: f398 → d588
Zhoufang Youxi: "You call that slow? Mine is slow. Some ability values haven't even increased by two hundred."
Yotsuya Miko: "That's because you just joined, right? This upgrade speed is much faster than ours back then."
At first, her and Sakurajima Mai's improvements were only a pitiful ten-odd points.
They hadn't felt it before, as there was no comparison. Now, new recruits often see increases of over two hundred in a single attribute. Compared to their past selves, they could be thrown into a ditch.
...
Contractor: Kato Megumi
Class: Low-level Divine Messenger
Strength: g255 → e455
Durability: g211 → e421
Dexterity: g245 → e465
Agility: g238 → e448
Divine Power: h156 → f376
Kato Megumi was expressionless, but she still received exclamations from everyone.
Compared to this new recruit, Yotsuya Miko and Sakurajima Mai only then realized how slow their previous improvements had been.
