Momoko-neechan said.

From the father’s perspective, Kurama Kaku is nothing but an old building that confines him.

And so, he destroyed it, leaving no trace.

He dug down the garden for the sake of the high-rise building he’s constructing.

Can we not take those sisters as my servants for their protection?

Momoko-neechan said. Misuzu.

If Kaan-sama’s family is willing to pay for Kurama-sama’s debts. Right. There’s that. That’s unreasonable. The Kurama Kaku group has no hope of recovering from their debts. The foreign investors deceived them

Momoko-neechan looks at Torii-san.

Maiko, can your family save them? Torii electronics has some great achievements recently, don’t they? My grandfather only does business where he profits. If the former Kurama Kaku remained, he would gladly help out, but, I don’t think he would want to get involved with a high rise hotel that stopped construction halfway and is just an ordinary hotel and restaurant with no unique characteristic

That’s the reasonable evaluation of the Kurama Kaku group currently.

At least, if those two were to marry into another family, their children can inherit Kurama house, but.

Torii-san said.

Marrying into those girls means you’ll share the debts of Kurama house. I don’t think there’s any nobility who would want to take that punishment If anyone were to do that, their family will get angry at them

Marriage in nobility needs approval not just from the parents and grandparents, but also from the branch families, servants, and the executives involved in their business.

I know that structure.

Even if a son of a noble liked Kurama Misato-san or Arisu-san and wants to make her his wife.

Other nobilities scowl at the debts of Kurama house, and so the whole family will protest against it.

It would be hard to have other nobility condemn you for your choice.

But, I still want to do something for them

Kanou-san said.

Right. I feel the same way

Momoko-neechan said.

We have to leave this problem for the adults. We can do nothing in this problem

She sighs.

Thank you very much. It was a fun day

Finally, Misuzu’s party ends.

Misuzu and I are standing in the courtyard’s exit, sending off the guests.

Yoshiko-san’s with us.

Ruriko’s with Agnes, standing behind us.

I have learned a lot

Kuromiya-san, the warrior lady, told us.

I’m looking forward to the training Yes, please do

Misuzu smiled, then Kuromiya-san goes to Michi.

I’m looking forward to your guidance What?

Michi’s surprised. Yet shows no emotion in her face.

You may be Misuzu-sama’s servant, but you’re my teacher in skill

Oh, so that’s how she thinks.

Please do that on the training grounds with the bodyguards

Torii-san told Kuromiya-san.

My mindset is with martial arts training, anytime, anywhere It’s just you who think that way. Do you not understand that you’re the unique one here? Do you not want to be called as such?

This is bad.

The mood’s turning sour.

Hey, Haiji, stand in front of me. You know that this person is dangerous, don’t you? Yes, I know, but, I will not come in front of Mariko-ojousama Hey, you’re my bodyguard, aren’t you? Uhm, if it’s about my bodyguard duty, you just dismissed me, and we’re not done talking about reemployment Didn’t I say that I’ll hire you again? I still haven’t presented my terms Terms? I need a better term than before if you want to employ me Hey, Haiji I’m Adelheid That’s why I’m calling you Haiji

I wonder how long they can continue this skit?

But, it seems that everything went smoothly. I thank you, Misuzu

Momoko-neechan told us.

So far, we all had walls between ourselves, despite being fellow nobility. But today’s party took that off That’s because Momoko-oneesama participated. Thank you My, you’re right, but still

Momoko-neechan puffs her chest with pride.

Sakurako, you, and I have become sworn sisters, and nobility will prosper!

Momoko-neechan smiles brightly.

But, behind her.

Kanou Sakurako-san still looks gloomy.

She’s looking up at the mansion where the Kurama sisters stay in.

Chapter 876. High Life Unsophisticated

That was fun I enjoyed the party

The young ladies greet off Misuzu with a smile before they leave the courtyard.

I’m glad that you enjoyed the party

Misuzu replies with a smile next to me.

Misuzu is the host of today’s party, and so she has to greet off all the young ladies leaving.

I want to use this chance to get closer to Misuzu-sama, Ruriko-sama, and Yoshiko-sama Indeed. You can call us out anytime. Also, please be kind to princess Agnes

Misuzu turns around.

I told Agnes to not cling to me during this period, so she had no choice but to stick to Ruriko instead.

Well, the two of them get along anyway. Koyomi-chan’s standing next to them, and Yoshiko-san’s over there too.

Mizushima Karen-san, who just became Misuzu’s servant, is standing by with Michi.

Agnes will surely gather a lot of attention once she enters school.

Or should I say that Agnes stands out because of her half-race? She has the charm to gather attention even in a gathering of beauties.

She has to get used to it, even for a bit.

Yes, my little sister is still in elementary, I’ll tell her about it Our branch family also has a 6th grader. But, would the princess mind to have friends with a lineage such as ours?

The young lady said, Misuzu.

Don’t mind it. Princess Agnes is fresh in Japan, I believe she wants to have a lot of friends

Correct.

Currently, Agnes has nobody but her family.

She hasn’t met someone who can be her friend from a different family, where they attend the same school, but doesn’t sleep together.

Our family will never betray the members.

We’re all sharing the same boat, after all.

If someone’s hurt, they are hurt as well.

Both Agnes and I can only live together with our family.

We don’t open up our hearts to anyone other than our family.

Agnes and I both didn’t have guardians, parents.

Therefore, I’m thankful to Minaho-neesan, who picked us up.

Thankful to Misuzu and the girls who accepted us.

I’m happy to meet this wonderful family, and I have nothing to fear when I’m with my family.

But.

Agnes and I cannot stay spoiled in the warmth of the family.

There is an outside world.

We need to make contact with people outside our family.

If we don’t put our effort into it, we cannot preserve our family.

We cannot close off our family and remain self-sufficient after all.

We need to make contact with the outside world, create a business, earn money.

Someday, both Agnes and I need to earn for our family.

Nagisa and Yukino are both giving birth next year.

Tsukiko also wants to get pregnant as soon as possible.

Our family will increase in numbers.

That is why we want Agnes to learn how to live together with people outside as well.

It’s to transition her from one protected by everyone in the family to one who protects those newly born in the family.

That is why she must make friends outside.

Friends are different from family.

They’re people from different families, they don’t share the same fate as oneself.

They might think and act differently.

Some might lie and show ill-will towards Agnes.

How can she create a good relationship with the outside people?

That is my current worries, and also Misuzu’s.

I want Agnes to experience the same worries we’re having now. I want her to surpass it.
