When Yamamoto Kazuki received Charlie’s call, anxiety washed over him as he nervously asked, “Could it be… are you here to engrave something on me?!”


    Charlie chuckled and replied, “What are you thinking? You want me to engrave something on you? You really think you deserve that?”


    With a yful grin, Charlie added, “I’m actually looking for a friend this time. He may not have much formal education, but he can definitely write the words ‘sick man in East Asia’. When the timees, I’ll have him engrave it on your forehead asrge as possible, just to make you happy!”


    Yamamoto Kazuki felt a wave of panic and struggled to find the right words. Just then, a staff member from the organizingmittee rushed over to Nanako Ito and Aurora, saying, “Contestants, thepetition has already begun. Your opponents are waiting for you in the ring. Please hurry; if you don’t arrive within 10 minutes, we’ll have to consider it an automatic withdrawal.”<fnd6ec> This content belongs to find~novel</fnd6ec>


    Aurora, still recovering from the shock, turned to Charlie and asked, “Master Wade, should I go by myself, or will you being with me?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie smiled warmly and said, “I’m here today to support you in your match, so of course, I’ll go with you.”


    Aurora nced at Yamamoto Kazuki, who was still on the ground, and quietly asked, “Master Wade, what should we do about him?”


    Charlie reassured her with a smile, “Don’t worry about him. Let him stay here; he won’t be able to escape my grasp anyway.”


    With that, Charlie gently patted Aurora’s back and encouraged her, “You must perform well in thepetition. I’m counting on you.”


    Aurora nodded eagerly, responding, “Don’t worry, Teacher Wade! I’ll do my best!”


    As they left the rest area, Yamamoto Kazuki remained on the ground with Nanako Ito, who was tearfully at his side. She expressed her concern, saying, “Master, I’ll call for an ambnce to take you to the hospital right now!”


    Yamamoto Kazuki quickly waved his hand, insisting, “The match is about to start! You need to go participate—don’t worry about me. Don’t let my situation dy your chance.”


    Jiro Kobayashi chimed in, “That’s right, Nanako-san. If you don’tpete, you may be marked as absent, and you’ll lose your chance at the championship.”


    Nanako Ito, clearly distressed, replied, “But I can’t leave the master here alone! He can’t even move right now!”


    Yamamoto Kazuki urged her, “Nanako, please focus on the game! It’s crucial for you. You must strive to win the championship!”


    “But what about you, Master?” she questioned, feeling torn.


    Just as Nanako felt helpless, Jiro Kobayashi quickly offered, “Miss Nanako, gopete tonight. I’ll take care of Mr. Yamamoto and ensure he gets to the hospital for the best care!”


    Nanako Ito pleaded, “Mr. Kobayashi, can you please take the master back to Japan right away? I can’t let him be humiliated by Master Wade!”


    “What?!” Jiro Kobayashi’s face went pale at her request. “Miss Nanako, are you suggesting I sneak Mr. Yamamoto back to Japan?”


    “Yes!” Nanako Ito affirmed, her determination strong. “I can’t let Master endure such disgrace. Even if he has to bear the name on his back, I refuse to allow them to engrave anything on his forehead!”


    After saying this, she looked earnestly at Jiro Kobayashi and implored, “Please, Mr. Kobayashi!”


    Hearing her words, Yamamoto Kazuki felt a surge of determination within him. The thought of escaping humiliation was overwhelming!


    Taking advantage of Charlie’s absence, he resolved to flee, preferring to never return to Aurous Hill, to China, or even to be a man in Japan, rather than live with the words ‘sick man of East Asia’ etched on his forehead for all eternity!
