Michi, you say that but.
That’s a bit wrong, Michi
I said.
Even among the family, you’re aggressively mingling with Mana, Ruriko, sisters younger than yourself
That’s right, she is.
You’re not talking to your elder sisters that much. Even Misuzu, you still call her Misuzu-sama, a manner of a subordinate That’s Furthermore, you speak so highly with the younger girls. Michi thought of her own elder sister as arrogant, right? My sister was overbearing
aah!
That’s right. Michi’s sister, Haruka-san was definitely an arrogant person. I get it, then Michi needs to fix from the foundation
The concept of elder sister and family is different for each.
No, wait. Is it just Michi? Does every one of us think of the words sisters and family in the same meaning? I mean, is my view on the family the right one? Even I know that I grew up in a wrong family. I know that Misuzu and Ruriko, Kouzuki house is unique. Mana and Megu, they weren’t raised decently by Shirasaka house. Nei, her family, died when she was young and grew up with no relatives. Margo-san was ousted from an Indian settlement and experienced entering a facility. Minaho-neesan too, she’s abandoned by her real father, Kuromori Koichiro. Everyone doesn’t have a decent, no, I don’t know what exactly is decent though. They don’t know what an ordinary family is. I don’t know how were Katsuko-nee and Nagisa raised so I can’t say anything about that. Shou-oneesan and Rei-chan too, I should listen to their stories more. There’s still a lot of things we have to talk about. Let’s talk about this with everyone. Let’s talk a lot. We can’t just assume to know it all
I thought.
It’s my first time knowing Michi seeing Minaho-neesan and other’s Qi
People see and sense something entirely different for me. They judge.
Ah. Edie too. She can also read people’s Qi. I guess I might’ve looked down on Edie a bit
I thought that she’s just a noisy and eccentric girl, but
She might’ve been making noise when she read people’s Qi. In any case, my family is also one who move strongly with their emotions. Ah, I get it
Suddenly, Misuzu speaks.
You also thought Edie could be your little sister, right?
Little sister?
If she becomes Danna-sama’s woman Yes, I’m a senior when it comes to being Master’s woman
Michi said.
What are you talking about, Edie’s a year older than Michi
That’s right, she’s on the same grade as I am.
Edie is on the same year a s me
Michi said.
That’s in America, isn’t it? The division of years is different on both
Misuzu?
In Japan, April is the new school year, but in America, it’s September
Oh, in an American school, Michi and Edie would be on the same school year?
But, that’s what Edie says, therefore, I
If they’re in the same school, she won’t have to treat her as an elder sister but think of her as a younger sister?
In Michi’s case, if she’s a little sister, then she can talk freely. But, Michi’s attitude to younger sisters is arrogant. She’s been dealing with Edie with that kind of high attitude. Above all, I’m much better at reading Qi
Huh?
Oh, I see. That’s the whole cause. Michi’s foundation is a fighter. So she measures people through their skills. Oh, I see. I get it, I know it now. No, that’s not okay. Michi. This is Japan so we’ll do it the Japanese way. Edie’s much older than Michi, so you have to respect her
Okay.
I get it all now. but, Master! Or should I say that it’s impossible for Michi to get along with Edie with that attitude now
I hug Michi and say.
You just assumed that Edie’s skills are inferior that’s why you take that attitude. You think that you can see through Edie and that she can’t see your heart, so you misunderstood that it’s okay to look down on her! I knew it, yo look down on Edie too much i
Michi falters
Michi, you think that you surpass Edie in skills, so you assume everything, it’s turned strange. If she turned it the other way around, what would you do?
I said.
Turn it the other way around If ever Edie got better in reading minds of people than you. It’s troublesome to tell us, so she just shows it in expression, but in reality, Edie can see everything, what would you do?
The possibility is strong.
Edie’s observation of other people’s Qi is sharp like a beast. On the other hand, if she feels that she could rest easy, she relaxes so much you’d be surprised. Misunderstanding that she’s just a dull person. In reality, she’s as sharp and more sensible than Michi. Think about it again Agugugu
Michi’s complexion is getting worse.
If ever that was the case, then I think I may have been terribly rude to her
Michi said.
Even if it isn’t, you were still rude! You looked down on Edie too much. Edie can also see Michi’s Qi
Perhaps.
Edie knows it all, she knows that Michi actually wants to be friends with Edie deep inside your heart. And yet, for some reason, you take such a highanded attitude on Edie, she’s confused, angry Auu!
Michi suddenly realizes.
what should I do?
I rub Michi’s back.
Calm down. For now, you have no choice but to apologize. Apologize for your lousy attitude and try asking to be friends with her again But Edie can read Qi. She’ll know that Michi’s feelings aren’t a lie
I said.
But, I don’t know what exactly friends are
That’s why she tries to be in a better position, becoming that arrogant elder sister.
No, I think Edie’s the same
I said.
She’s born from the assassination cult, she’s unique, and yet she learned a special technique from her grandmother, didn’t she? Then, she has been driven away from the cult
She’s learned a too strong of a skill.
Michi’s the same with Kudou style ancient martial arts. Edie-san too shouldn’t have friends of the same age
Michi listens to me silently.
Michi’s the same. That’s why, why don’t you two talk about things on what friends are? There’s no right or wrong in friendships
Misuzu.
It’s the same for family relationships.
Huh?
We try various things to look for the best form, so it’s okay
Misuzu clings to me.
I love you! I love you so much!
Misuzu?
Michi, what about you?
Michi.
Kuu, I love too! I love Master!
Michi’s crying.
It is as Master says, I’ll apologize to Edie, I’ll say I’m sorry for looking down on her, then. I’ll talk to Edie, I’ll ask her to be my friend
Michi
Yeah, I think that’s great
Misuzu stands up from the bench.
Then, she presses her hand on the rock on the open air bath and turns her ass to me. Danna-sama, please punish me
Huh?
Nei-oneesama said it. This is a perfect place for punishment
Yeah, she did, but
Nei-oneesama thinks that I should be receiving punishment, not Michi Misuzu-sama?
Michi’s surprised
I’m always treating Michi as my vassal. Therefore, Michi doesn’t mingle with other members of the family, that’s why she looked down on Edie That’s because I’m Misuzu-sama’s bodyguard! That doesn’t matter!
Misuzu said.
If this goes on, I can’t say that I’m Michi’s elder sister
Michi’s surprised.
I will be Michi’s Onee-san. I want to be a proper Onee-san, no, I have to!
Misuzu
If not, I feel sorry for Danna-sama! No, Misuzu, I’m. I am Danna-sama’s woman! That’s why I have to be a good sister to my little sisters
Misuzu repents strongly.
I’m sorry, Michi. I’m such an incompetent sister No, I. This blunder is all my fault
