“Hm? What did you just call me?” Master Jin arched a brow, his eyes suggesting Mizuno should switch to a different form of address.
“…” Mizuno got the hint. He gritted his teeth and forced out the shame-inducing title.
“Fa… father-in-law…...
“Hah?!”
Mizuno froze, completely dumbfounded. For a moment, he genuinely wondered if he was still floating face-down in the pond after Hayakawa-san’s punch, hallucinating this bizarre conversation as his brain shut down.
He’d only met Master Jin twice. The man didn’t even kn...

The swimsuit-clad Uma Musume’s startled reaction caught Mizuno off guard.
That half-uttered name—she’d almost called out his surname.
“Do you… know me?” he asked, puzzled.
“N-no, I don’t!” she blurted, shaking her head far too quickly. ...
