Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Can I Ask You to Take Care of Her?

"Sorry, Mr. Renji, did you have to wait long?"

Just after practicing with her mother and being exhausted, Nova, upon hearing her mother actually call out Renji's name, sprang up from the ground with a jolt.

Then, the little girl, as if fully revived, immediately set her sparkling eyes straight on Renji, and then, like the girl next door, cheerfully sprinted over.

"Brother Renji! Ugh, practicing is so tiring. Nova doesn't want to learn from mom anymore, she's too strict. Brother Renji, can you teach me instead pretty please~?"

Despite Renji's role in the story being defeated by Noya, he was still a runner-up and among the very few young and powerful in the gladiators. Plus, with his outstanding appearance, he was indeed very attractive to a little girl of Nova's age.
