Chapter 96: Witnessing Strength
Masatsuki Aozaki led Suì-Fēng away from the gathering crowd, distancing themselves from any unnecessary trouble.
As they walked, he rubbed his chin.
"Suì... Shāolíng Fēng, can I just call you Suì-Fēng from now on?"
He had always referred to her as Suì-Fēng in his previous life, and changing how he addressed her so suddenly felt a bit unnatural.
Shāolíng Fēng was briefly taken aback before nodding. "Of course."
The codename "Suì-Fēng" originally belonged to her grandmother, and she had inherited it upon joining the Onmitsukidō.
As a lower noble family, the Fēng clan had a long history of serving as executioners and assassins. Anyone who failed to join the Executive Militia was exiled. Because of this, members of the Fēng family underwent Onmitsukidō training from an early age.
For someone like Shāolíng Fēng, who had grown up under strict family training, using codenames was second nature.
So when Masatsuki made his request, she didn't think much of it.
Masatsuki nodded. "Suì-Fēng, let's skip the office area for now. Next up are the training grounds and the Nest of Maggots. Where do you want to go first?"
"Where to go... I heard that Aozaki 3rd Seat and Lady Yoruichi are quite close. Is that true?" Rather than answering, Suì-Fēng posed a question of her own.
