I already suspected something was amiss but never expected it to be this big. And for Father to have a past with these groups only to meet them again in the future is just proof that this is just a small world we lived in.

"Are there any clues about the ones who have planned this?" I asked the investigator.

??

"As of now, I have possible leads but I didn't have concrete evidence that pinpoints them as the main culprits. There is already one that I have already confirmed to be one of the responsible. Do you want to know who this person is?"

"There is no need to delay about the identity of that f*cker or whoever that person was. I want to know their names."

"Well then. Have you heard of the Amakano family?"

"I heard of them. They hold a big business of food processing goods and one of the family who has control over the quantity of food being distributed to many stores in Nagoya."

"Yep, that's the one. As you can see, the female head of the family, Amakano Fuyumi is your father's ex-girlfriend in the past. I don't have the info about why they decided to split up but I managed to gather some info that Fuyumi is very obsessed with your father to the point of stalking him and monitoring all of his movements all around. Maybe it was discovered by your father and that must be the reason why they split up but it was just speculation since it would be indeed creepy to have a stalker even if she is your girlfriend or boyfriend. That is just speculation on why they split up but I already confirmed that she is one of the culprits that caused the accident of your mother."

"Does this woman still harbor feelings for my father?!"

"Yes. As a matter of fact, she is still stalking him now. She seemed to bear a huge hatred against your mother which is why she tried to kill your mother. Due to this, I think the other people involved decided to use her stalking tendencies to give a big blow against your father."

While listening to the investigator in the other line, I started taking notes about Amakano Fuyumi. To think the other people who hated my father used the yandere tendencies of Amakano Fuyumi to strike against my father. They are indeed quite smart.

"Although we can confirm her as one of the people who are involved in your mother's case, we can't sue them because she immediately used the power of the money to erase the traces that she was involved in this case. She also didn't show up to reveal herself to your father too which means she still has no plans on meeting up again with your father until she managed to eliminate your mother for good."

I scratch my head as this was indeed getting complicated. So not only those people who hate father are involved but also someone who loves him very much that she would kill for it.

"I am still investigating about the other people involved and are just trying to gather decisive clues that they are the ones who did it. They have hidden quite a lot of clues that will show that they are involved with your father. Even though they can easily kill your father and mother easily and use their money, they seemed to be trying to make your father suffer a lot and despair."

So that was what happened. Although the accident didn't happen in the past, this same thing happened before which drove my father to kill himself after my mother died from complications and some sickness that I think was bogus because I find it quite suspicious in the past. My mother suddenly died despite being very healthy when I visited her before in the hospital due to her sickness. Maybe those bastards are also going to try and do something too which will cause the death of my mother in this timeline too.

"Thank you for the info. Please continue the investigation. The money is not an issue so do what you can do."

I hang up the call after that and stare at the notebook with the notes I scribbled about the name of one of the perpetrators. It seems like this is not the time for me to just stay idle and do anything in the background by supporting my parents. It is not a reliable tactic especially after knowing that there are some bastards who are willing to do some things just to bring ruin to people they hate even if they needed to drag other people to this.

"I needed to get stronger and I needed to fight back to protect my parents in all of this web of conspiracies."

My anger is boiling and I am not holding back. Just when I was trying to control my anger, I suddenly felt the itch. It was not an itch caused by being bitten by a mosquito or an ant, it was an urge to do something.

Channeling my mana in my left hand, I stretch it out and my eyes grew wide. A familiar-looking sword appeared in my hands as it slowly materialized. When the materialization was complete, my hands started shaking when I saw the finished product of the materialization.

"The Versatile Weapon..."

In the past timeline, not only the magic skills can be materialized in the real world, even some items in the game can be materialized in the real world. The very prominent to materialize are the weapons. However, the materialization process takes time to perfect and it can only last for a short time due to how high of mana intake it uses just to materialize something in one go especially during the beginning. But seeing the Versatile Weapon materialize right before my eyes, I think my anger allowed me to developed the materialization faster than expected.

Raising the weapon up in the air, I didn't expect it to appear just how exactly it looks in the game. Now, does this one can already change form? I tried to focus on doing it but I think it still isn't the time since before I can actually try to change the weapon's form, my nose started to bleed.

One thing is for sure, I am able to materialize my weapon in this world now. I am no longer stuck to only using magic. If I want to fight in close combat, I can just materialize my weapon and deal with things my own way.

Then I realized that maybe the way the materialization happened after my anger about the enemies of my parents reached the peak. Maybe it was a sign that if I want to solve the case of my parents with brute force rather than using the power of money.

Looking at the sinister-looking Versatile Weapon in my hands, I think it is time for me to take the matter in my hands and dig deep to protect my family from them. If they think they are the only people who are fine killing a few, I won't hesitate to also do the same to the people involved.

I grab my holophone once again and decided to call my father. I need to make things clear with him. I dematerialized my Versatile Weapon while waiting for my father to pick up the phone. Soon, he picked it up and started speaking. I noticed his voice became raspy compared to the last call. It was like he has a cold or a cough.

"Father, how is it going over there? It's been a while since you called and I was also busy which is why it took quite some time before I get to call."

"Oh...it is just you Manato..." my father sighed in relief.

"What's wrong father? Is something the matter?"

"No... there is nothing wrong. Don't worry about it."

His response is a bit suspicious. It seems he was expecting a call from someone that made him nervous. Not only that, I can tell from his voice the stress levels he was suffering. However, I didn't ask him about it just yet.

"How is Mother doing so far? Did she already wake up from the coma?"

"Sigh... she still hasn't regained her consciousness or showing signs of waking up. The doctors said that her vitals are fine but something is wrong since she was perfectly healthy but she is still not showing any signs of waking up."

If only my mother's head got a big injury in the head for her to remain in a coma seems to be more legit and believable. However, for Mother's situation, it is somewhat a big mystery as to why she still hasn't woken up even though she didn't suffer any head trauma from the accident. She should have already regained consciousness.

Now that this matter is over, I decided to start confronting my father. He is the only one who can answer my questions.

"Father, you are hiding something from me, aren't you?"
