"Hmph, look at this good-for-nothing guy. A dignified member of the Hyuga clan is actually practicing Steel Fist!”When he walked into Kirito's residence, he saw a group of elders from the Hinata family.
The branch family that the Tongren was in was responsible for guarding the Ri Ri clan's main family's children for generations. It actually had quite a status among the branch families. At least in the eyes of the other branch families, the Tongren branch family was the branch family closest to the main family. One could tell from the Kirito's living environment. There was a spacious room and a small courtyard. The living conditions were even comparable to some of the main clans. However, as both of Kirito's parents had sacrificed themselves for the main clan, and the only heir was a good-for-nothing who was born unable to open his eyes, the rest of the clan would feel unhappy if they continued to live in this good place. He wanted to find a way to chase the eyesore Kirito out of the Hinata family.
Kirito himself did not care much about these things. To be honest, as long as the Zong Clan gave the word, Kirito would immediately move out of this place without any psychological pressure.
When he saw the elders and higher-ups of the Hinata clan gathered in front of the door, Kirito immediately stopped practicing his steel fist. He did not feel any fear or disgust, and just performed the etiquette of a junior to an elder.
However, Kirito's magnanimous and appropriate calmness made the elders of the Hinata clan feel extremely displeased. In their opinion, they were of extraordinary status in the Hinata clan, so they naturally deserved to be feared by their clansmen. If the main family's disciples had such an attitude, they would have praised them. They said that they were calm and measured, and the branch family disciples did not distinguish between superiority and inferiority. However, Kirito was a member of the Hinata branch family, and he was the shame of the Hinata clan. Now that he saw them, not only did he not feel fear or shame, but he also had a normal and indifferent appearance. Neither servile nor overbearing. This phrase was not suitable for just anyone!
Although he was unhappy, he couldn't openly reprimand them on this point. After all, there was no rule in the Hinata family that stipulated that the descendants of the branch family had to bow down to the elders.
The leader of the elders coughed and said coldly," From today onwards, move out of the house.”He was prepared to give Kirito a show of strength. He went straight to the point as soon as he came up, as if he was specifically planning a sneak attack to catch the other party off guard.
"I understand." However, Kirito's reaction was far beyond the expectations of the elders. In their opinion, after Kirito heard the verdict, it would be as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. Then, he would cry for his parents and kneel down to beg them, although they might not retract their orders in the end.
Now, he agreed without hesitation. Immediately, the elders felt as if they had hit cotton with their strength. He couldn't help but snort," Hinata Kirito, you should understand what this means, right? In the future, you are not allowed to do anything in the name of the Hyuga clan, and you will never be able to obtain the protection of the Hyuga clan!”
Kirito nodded indifferently. Kirito had never done anything in the name of the Hinata clan. As a branch family, he had never enjoyed the so-called protection of the clan.
" Hmm…It's good that you understand." The leader of the elders was even more displeased with Kirito's indifferent expression. He added," By the way, you are not allowed to take a single cent of what belongs to the Hinata family!”
Kirito continued to nod calmly. As a member of the Hinata family, he was supposed to receive a sum of money from the butler every month for his living expenses. However, a year ago, after the housekeeper deliberately deducted his monthly salary, Kirito did not collect it again. He relied entirely on his part-time work to pay for his living expenses.
"..." The elders of the Hinata family were puzzled by Kirito's free and easy attitude. Kirito did not make a big fuss about the deduction of the monthly salary, so very few people in the Hinata family knew about it. As the elders of the Hinata family, who were high and mighty, it was even more impossible for them to pay attention to such trivial matters.
Kirito was surprisingly easy to " get rid of ". For a moment, the elders of the Hinata family looked at each other in dismay. They had prepared a bellyful of mocking words in advance. Now, he had not objected at all, nor did he go against them. This time, the well-prepared mockery could only rot in his stomach.
"Humph! That's it, take care of yourself, Hinata Kirito!”The reason why they did not strip the Kirito people of their surnames was not out of pity, but rather because in the history of the Hinata clan, there was no such person who had been expelled from the clan and stripped of their surnames. This was a " heinous crime." The Hinata family was also proud of their family's good family history. How could they allow Kirito, this trash, to break it?
Also, I forgot to mention that the Hinata branch family had to be branded with the " Caged Bird " curse that controlled the fate of the main family since they were young. This was because the original Caged Bird curse was developed to prevent the limit of the blood inheritance of the Hinata family from being spied on. After a branch family member died, the Caged Bird's spell would automatically activate and seal Bai Yan's power forever. Just like how Yun Yin had obtained the complete corpse of the Hinata clansmen through extremely sinister means ten years ago, but he had failed to pry into the secret of White Eyes. Another point was that every Japanese clan master had a secret technique that could control the Caged Bird Curse Seal. If a branch family dared to resist and offend their superiors, they could use the power of the Curse Seal to control the members of the branch family. This was the reason why almost 80% of the Hinata clansmen were branch families, but they were controlled by 20% of the main families. Of course, a large part of the reason for this was because of the pure bloodline of the main family. The blood inheritance limit was perfect, and the talent and talent were not comparable to most of the branch family members. Of course, this was not absolute.
As for the relationship between the main family and the branch family, I won't explain too much here. Back to the original problem, because the Caged Bird's curse was designed to target the whites of one's eyes, the foundation of the tactic was also based on the whites of one's eyes. Therefore, as a branch family member of the Kirito family, the Caged Bird's curse could not be placed on him because he had yet to awaken the White Eyes.
