Kaan-san said and looked at me.
How do you do, I’m Kaan Momoko
She smiled at me.
L-Likewise. Kuromori Kou
I greeted her back.
Hmm. So Kozuki-kakka accepted you as Misuzu-sama’s fiance?
She stares at me.
Yes, he did
I replied.
Hey, Misuzu-sama. I would like to ask what part of him do you like?
Kaan-san cuts to the chase.
I’m happy whenever I’m with him
Misuzu replied immediately.
I feel safe whenever I’m by Danna-sama’s side Oh? That’s a surprising reply
Kaan-san said.
I thought that this man has captured Misuzu-sama with his manly charms
You mean?
I took Misuzu over through sexual addiction?
I mean, he’s not a born nobility, is he?
Kaan-san smiles.
As the young lady of Kaan house, I had my resolve to marry another nobility, but. Unfortunately, Kouzuki house has no son and heir, and so I had to pick my husband
Misuzu replied immediately.
And since Grandfather accepted Danna-sama, that’s how it is.
Jii-chan’s next in line is Misuzu’s father, but.
Jii-chan has no grandsons, only granddaughters.
Therefore, Kouzuki house had to adopt a son-in-law from another family, but.
But, I.
I can understand that but, I cannot see him having the talent to succeed such nobility as Kouzuki house
No, you’re right about that.
I mean, I just want to run a bakery.
Kouzuki house is a big clan. It rivals the Kaan house and Kanou-san in lineage. Thee noble among the nobility. A family who leads the nobility itself. And so, deciding the next head shouldn’t be a decision within Kouzuki house itself. That’s what I firmly believe in, but.
She smiled provocatively to Misuzu.
When I will marry someday, I will choose a partner that other nobility will accept
Oh right.
She accepted Misuzu’s invitation today and went to Kouzuki house for this.
But, Misuzu-sama chose someone who isn’t nobility, a person with doubtful origins, without us knowing. I’m surprised, astounded even
Misuzu doesn’t break her smile.
This is a fight between both young ladies of nobility.
And so, I came here today with the thought of seeing the face of the man Misuzu-sama chose
I knew it.
Oh, by the way. The part where Kouzuki house would like to gather up and train our bodyguards, please do so freely. I don’t think it will do us bad. Well, the Kaan house’s bodyguards are perfect, so I will not join. But for everyone else, you’re free to ask for Kouzuki-sama’s cooperation
She told the girls in the courtyard, smiling.
It is as expected of Kouzuki house to think for the whole nobility. We will leave that bothersome case to them. Kaan house has more things to consider
She speaks sarcastically.
She arrived this late, after the discussion with the bodyguards.
It’s to show that the Kaan house has no interest.
Thank you. But, I believe that it will benefit Kaan-sama if you participate as well
Misuzu responded with a smile.
Oh, why? My Sebastianus can deal with Kyouko Messer
Kaan-san points at her tall bodyguard dressed in male clothing.
The bodyguard bows her head.
See? She’s beautiful, isn’t she? She looks like Hijiri Sebastian, right? That’s why I call her Sebastianus
Kaan-san said.
Adding anus to her name sounds great, right?
Err.
I don’t get what Kaan-san’s hobbies are.
Right, Sebastianus, you can win against Misuzu-sama’s bodyguard, Kouzuki SS, or Kyouko Messer, right?
The bodyguard asked by her Master.
If Momoko-ojousama orders, then I will
She speaks in a low tone.
She glared at Michi and Edie.
Shou-neechan and everyone ignore that.
If she’s that confident, I think that she knows Qi at least.
Even so, I don’t think she will win against Kyouko-san.
Yamada Umeko will bring victory to Ojou-sama, even if it costs my life
Yamada Umeko.
Yamada Umeko is showing off with a pose to Kaan-san.
Sebastianus, that’s your real name Excuse me
O-Oh.
She’s so muscular and strong-looking, but her name is Yamada Umeko.
I mean, is she strong?
Now then, let’s return to the topic
Kaan-san looks at me again after getting excited.
This man.Oh, I already forgot your name
She speaks sarcastically.
Well, I don’t care. You’re not nobility anyway
Looks like her plan is to look down on me
I was watching the video from a separate room on the situation in the courtyard for today, but.
Kaan Momoko looked at the young ladies in the courtyard and said.
Kouzuki Kakka was talking to him, was he?
Oh.
Jii-chan came here to show himself talking to me on purpose.
I didn’t intend to eavesdrop in the conversation, but since Kouzuki Kakka was talking, I couldn’t help but do it. Forgive me
Jii-chan and my conversation.
But, it disappointed me, or should I say that it surprised me?
Kaan-san continues her trap.
After all, Kouzuki Kakka is directly teaching the man who will become Misuzu-sama’s husband, I surely thought that the conversation would be in management philosophy or the latest economics debate.
Philosophy? Debate?
But, Kouzuki-sama is giving him such a low-level story, it made me laugh. It made me wonder if he’s not embarrassed to have that conversation while everyone’s watching
That was low level?
No, I think that Kouzuki Kakka has more wonderful topics to choose from. I watched Kakka’s lessons with his students. Those were terrific topics, covering the latest theories, modern financial system and such
Well, Jii-chan’s teaching them about the enterprise.
They’ll get to that.
Jii-chan’s students will become supporters of the Kouzki group. They’re the children of Kouzuki group leaders, after all.
But I.
Then, is that how it is? Kouzuki Kakka teaching you some low-level stuff, does that mean that your level is too low?
Kaan-san asks me.
Kaan-sama, you’re going too far.
Misuzu tries to stop Kaan-san, but.
No, it’s okay. Misuzu
I stopped Misuzu.
Danna-sama
If we get angry, we lose.
Kaan-san wants us to get angry.
And she wants to laugh at us when our emotions rise up.
Sure, Jii-chan is matching with my level. My, to think that someone as honorable as Kouzuki Kakka gets dragged to that level But, I don’t think of it as low level
I stopped Kaan-san from speaking.
Oh, for commoners like you, everything is high-level
Kaan-san tries to stir me up.
However.
That’s because I’m starting up a business just now
I said.
Making pastries in school and selling them in the cafeteria is a proper business.
Jii-chan gives me the necessary advice for my current business. And that’s not low-level for me
Kaan-san smiles.
Oh? If it’s business, then I do have some too. I do stocks, and I started three companies already
Oh, she’s proud that she’s teaching Torii-san about stocks.
And I’m 17. What’s your age? 16
I replied.
See? It’s just one year difference. One year ago, I was already starting up my business, and I already read various business and finance books before. If we’re talking about your level, I already graduated elementary
Kaan-san speaks triumphantly.
Therefore, I don’t know what kind of business you do, but you can’t refute me if you want to talk about business. You need to at least have the same knowledge as me
Oh.
I see. She’s dissatisfied that someone with a doubtful origin is getting inside Kouzuki house.
Naturally, the Kaan house can’t interfere with Jii-chan’s decision.
They’re from a different clan after all.
And so, she’s trying to make me look like a fool.
