I insisted.
yes. Sensei I’m sorry, Nii-san
The two apologized.
No, it’s my fault, I made the plan and asked the two to do it
Michi says with a crying face.
I didn’t understand, I’m very sorry, Master!
Michi looked at Margo-san.
And after watching Reika-oneesama and Margo-oneesama fight them, I started reflecting
Kyouko-san’s CQC.
It was nothing but a pure battle of physical abilities. Furthermore, they were thinking of how to show it to the viewers. They respect each other, a brisk fight
Yeah, it was beautiful.
It was a flashy, beautiful, and cool fight like you’re watching a high-quality dance.
Edie and I didn’t have that composure, it was embarrassing
Michi said. Margo-san.
Michi-chan, it isn’t about simply becoming stronger. What’s more important is the path
That’s?
To tell the truth, you are much stronger than me in some places. Reika-oneesan and I can’t use Qi skills after all
She smiled.
But you see, it’s meaningless if you can’t use your strength in situations. For example, F1 Racecars are fast, but it can only have one passenger, which is the driver. It can’t bring any luggage, and it can go around a racing circuit, but it can drive itself on ordinary roads with traffic lights. It can’t go through mountain roads, the windshield and the base of the car would break before it can go up. It has a highly efficient engine, but it always needs maintenance. It’s not a car you can use for a long time Margo-san said. But still, F1 racecar has it’s worth. Like competing in a race with F1 rules
It’s only a racing car, so it only needs one person, the driver. It only needs to specialize in the racing circuit. You don’t have to think about it running across mountain roads. You only need it to be at its peak performance during the race. Considering that it always needs constant adjustment from the mechanics.
I will become a martial artist, and so, I train my body to become just that. Therefore, I can’t help Kyouko-san out anymore. Kyouko-san’s jobs need her to fight continuously for a week most of the time. She has the tenacity and stamina for that, but, martial artists consider as excess stamina as deadweight
Michi listens to Margo-san’s story.
Michi-chan, you need to become stronger in a situation that matches you. It’s meaningless to have a power that only matches with one or two people. An F1 engine with high horsepower to win a racing circuit will never be useful carrying luggage up a mountain Yes, I have lost myself on trying to use only Qi skills
Michi said.
And as I watched Onee-sama fight earlier, I finally have my eyes open on Father’s world
Kudou-papa?
I always thought why my father fights like he’s joking around, not taking things seriously Oh, isn’t he just using that as camouflage to not let people sense danger from him?
That is why, even when Kudou-papa knocks people down.
It only looks like a skit to the people around him.
Something like a TV show.
That’s right, Father’s acts are only seen as a comedy
Michi looks at Margo-san.
Earlier, Onee-sama’s fight was graceful, refined, it was suitable for the young ladies to appreciate Right. Kudou-san’s a bit disappointing. I can see that his intention is to make people laugh, but.
Margo-san?
He’s doing something amazing, but it doesn’t live up to people’s evaluation. He’s a master of a skill ordinary people can’t imitate, and yet, he doesn’t know how to show it off, lowering his evaluation
Show off?
This world has too many things conspicuous. Ordinary people don’t know it’s greatness. Like, only people who understand can see a top-class talent and skill. And those who understand, are filled with habits.examples are judges who have their eyes clouded
O-Okay.
A top-class genius is evident to everyone. Amateurs can see how great Picasso, Gogh, or Da Vinci’s paintings are. Their work emits that aura. Same with Mozart’s music
If it’s the top class.
But, let’s take a Shogi master, for example, ordinary people won’t understand why that professional shogi player is impressive. They know he’s strong in Shogi, that’s why he’s a master. But, if asked why is the Master strong, they don’t know the reason
Margo-san said.
Therefore, you need to display it yourself to let the ordinary people understand. Kudou-san doesn’t understand that I think my father never considers it essential. That only those who understand his strength should know That idea will only harm Kudou-san, and it’ll cause trouble to other people
Trouble.
Like, earlier, during our fight with Kyouko-san, and Michi-chan’s fight with Kyouko-san, the young ladies, don’t understand the difference. The ordinary girls can see Michi-chan and Edie’s physical ability as a cut above the rest, but the young ladies don’t have combat training And yet, we were so desperate that we didn’t have the composure
Michi said.
That’s right. And so, if Reika-oneesan and I didn’t join in, the young ladies will misunderstand. They know from TV that Kyouko-san is strong, and so they can’t chew it properly So they think of Michi as weak?
really?
It won’t end with Michi-chan, it will also make them underestimate Misuzu-san. If it ends there, then that’s okay, but if they were to tell their bodyguards you’re much stronger, they’re so weak and yet, why didn’t you try fighting Kyouko Messer? and such
And it will become a problem for the bodyguards as well.
Therefore, Reika-oneesan and I joined in and had a show-off match with Kyouko-san. The purpose of the fight was to show that Kyouko-san is absurdly strong. That said, it won’t lower our evaluation Meaning that goes for Kyouko-san as well. They know, well, they love cute girls, and so they want to finish up with a cool fight between Reika and me, Miss Cordelia and her
Margo-san said.
Therefore, their evaluation of Michi-chan doesn’t change. They think, She’s so courageous for challenging Kyouko Messer. As expected of Misuzu-san’s bodyguard, and such
I see.
I’ve learned a lot today
Michi speaks.
Yeah. Those who are truly strong don’t think, It’s okay as long as those who understand knows You need to show off your strength to ordinary people. Make it easy to understand. Your status in the industry will never go up no matter how, and your allies will not evaluate you highly either
Kudou-papa is valued highly by the same freelance bodyguards like him, but.
Kouzuki SS’s employees value him lowly.
His attitude is, Those who know, they know.
It sure is a waste.
It’s one of the causes of why Michi’s mother was dissatisfied and got herself a lover.
I’ll try talking to Father again
Michi said.
And I will become a strong woman that is easy to see for others Right. I also want to become a woman who’s easily seen as strong by people, anytime, anywhere, by anyone. Just like Kyouko-san
Margo-san said.
I.
I also learned a lot today
I tell everyone.
Earlier, Minaho-neesan told me that the Kurama sisters will become prostitutes
That timid-looking elder sister, Misato-san, and the younger sister whose supporting her, Arisu-san.
When I heard that, I. I thought that I should do as I was told since I’m Minaho-neesan’s younger brother, a member of Kuromori. Considering that I have to prepare myself for it
But.
That’s wrong. The way I stop thinking because Minaho-neesan told me, is just abandoning responsibilities
That’s naive.
Above all, I’m a member of Kuromori and Minaho-neesan, but I’m also Misuzu’s fiance, Michi, Yomi, Luna, Edie, Margo-san, anyway, I have my whole family to carry
I look at every one.
Minaho-neesan and Kyouko-san are doing this because it’s their job. But, Misuzu and Ruriko are friends with the young ladies and the Kurama sisters. Two parties influence me, and so I couldn’t just decide what to do based on one sides’ order. I need to look at everyone involved and their position, think, and make my decision with that in mind I’m no longer allowed to follow someone’s orders blindly.
