Yeah, she doesn’t want to make a move on Karen-san, a 12-year-old girl.
She prefers Takahama-san, a high schooler, as her minion.
Therefore, she won’t make a move on Agnes. She can become a bulletproof vest for Darling if she clings like that
Edie’s laughing.
No, this soft and squishy cutie can’t become a bulletproof vest at all.
I think it’s better if Agnes-chan comes along
Ruriko said.
Perhaps, the scary guys from Kouzuki SS has already interrogated her. Onii-sama and Agnes-chan can be good enough to ease up her tension I get that, but why me too? Yeah. Ruriko’s right, Darling’s isn’t scary at all. Or should I say that you make people feel at ease
Edie said.
Really?
That’s not my intention though.
Don’t worry about it. Either way, I’m also coming
Edie said.
If Edie’s guarding us, it should be okay.
Michi, what about you?
Edie asks Michi, who’s following Misuzu silently.
I’ll continue guarding Misuzu-oneesama. I can leave Master to Edie for tonight, and if there’s the two of us there, it’ll only stimulate her
Michi replied.
Besides,
Huh?
Right, instead of a defender, an attacker, no, it should be someone with the training to infiltrate and takedown people, or else she will make a move
Edie learned assassination techniques from the assassination cult in New Orleans.
Edie’s the one keeping her in check earlier, so she was able to stop the escape attempt
Michi said. Edie looked at me.
Darling, Tsukiko’s power has another weak point.
Miko power?
Reading someone’s mind, understanding it, and making a specific way to deal with it has a time lag
Time lag?
Tsukiko noticed that Tendou Otome woke up, and thought of escaping during an opportunity. But, when she’s trying to stop her with her power, she’s already starting to move
I see.
Tsukiko knew the other side’s thoughts using Miko power, yet,
She’s too late to chase after Tendou Otome with her trained speed.
I just happened to be checking in, so it went well. I slammed Tendou Otome with my Qi as soon as she got up. Then, Tsukiko made her faint again. To be precise, she will not open her eyes unless Tsukiko orders her to wake up. While at it, Kouzuki SS has her tied up with their tools. Tsukiko’s watching her now
I see, if she’s tied up, it’s still safe even if Tendou Otome wakes up suddenly.
In short, when her consciousness returned, she confirmed the status in the room and moved to escape immediately
Michi said.
Correct. Before her consciousness is clear, her body responded ahead. Therefore, Tsukiko couldn’t deal with it. Then that means, Tendou Otome wants to live
Edie?
I think that’s her true feelings too
She looked at me.
Onii-sama, I’ve seen this TV documentary back then.
Ruriko said.
They say that the Islam extremist suicide bombing in Moscow was done by females
Suicide bombing?
That woman was from a poor village in central Asia, that after she died from exploding the bomb tucked in her stomach in the designated location, the family she left behind was paid handsomely, or so the documentary says
O-Okay.
She never left her hometown before, hopeless from her hard life, thinking that they don’t mind dying, so she went to Moscow with a bomb and travel expenses, but.
Ruriko smiled.
Seeing the gorgeous big-city landscape for the first time, she was moved and thought to think that there are these bright places in this world, suddenly, she felt that suicide bombing is an absurd idea. Thus, she didn’t blow herself up and surrendered to the police
Oh, she wasn’t aware of the world other than the place she was born and raised.
When she saw that the world is much different, then.
I think that Tendou-san might be like that too
Her father is a Kyoukaku, and so she lived a life in yakuza since childhood.
Therefore, please teach her what fun is
Ruriko said.
Before Onii-sama taught me; I thought that the world is small, where it’s just Yoshiko-oneesama, me, and the people around me
Right.
Bakerata
Agnes looks at me.
Right, Agnes too
I pat Agnes’ back and shake her.
Okay, let’s go then This way
Edie’s the only one who knows the room where Tendou Otome is kept.
Ah, wait wait, I’m going too
Torii-san says in a hurry.
Huh? Safety isn’t a problem, right? Then I’m going too. I have Haiji with me
Err.
Can’t help it. Let’s bring her too I knew you’d get it
Torii-san and Edie are hitting it off since earlier.
But I don’t want to come though Geez, Haiji, you. Yes, I understand, I will come. Mariko-ojousama
Adelheid-san replied in a hateful tone.
I will go too
Koyomi-chan too?
It’s not just Tsukiko-sama, but Yomi-san and Luna-san are also present, aren’t they?
Oh, Koyomi-chan’s reading my thoughts.
Right, I told the Takakura sisters that they will change Tendou Otome’s personality.
If that’s the case, I should join in too
Koyomi-chan also has Miko power.
Okay, you’re coming too. Stand behind Edie, don’t go far from her Yes. Thank you Agnes, don’t part from me either, okay? Bakerata
She hugs me tighter.
Then, please take care
Misuzu and Ruriko send us off with a bow.
Ah, Nii-san!
Luna and Yomi are in front of the door.
Kuromori-sama asked us to wait here for Sensei, so we can go inside together
Yomi said.
Minaho-neesan moved the two here.
Tsukiko-oneesama said that her mind is quite twisted, so it’s better if we don’t stay in the same room.
Luna said.
Twisted? Yes. Earlier, Luna and I saw it. Her thoughts are messed up
Yomi said.
Right. It’s something like I want to live, or if this goes on, I should die It’s like she can’t pick which ice cream flavor she wants. Vanilla and Chocolate
Err.
That means the thoughts of wanting to live and wanting to die are jumbling inside Tendou Otome’s head?
Yes, something like that! As expected of Nii-san!
The two read my thoughts and replied.
What do you mean?
Torii-san looks at what’s happening and is curious.
You know, I’ve been thinking about it since earlier, but you girls look like you can read minds
She’s not an idiot.
I mean, her intuition is sharp.
That’s the reason why Momoko-neechan left Torii-san to observe us.
Yes. That’s it
Edie said without a care.
No way, are you just trying to play a prank on me?
She’s sharp but is also doubtful.
Why would we do that? We want to drag Mariko in as our ally, so why would we lie to you?
Edie smiles.
Didn’t I tell you already? I’m with Momoko-oneesama, I will not become yours. Besides, you should serve me instead. I can ask Papa and pay you as much as you want
She’s trying to get Edie in front of me and her current bodyguard, Adelheid-san.
That freedom is her strength.
It’s not about money
Edie smiled.
Oh? I know that Kudou Michi-san has some honor as Misuzu-sama’s bodyguard, but being Kuromori-sama’s bodyguard means that it’s just money talk, isn’t it?
Oh, Torii-san’s talking to Edie this lively because,
She thought that she could get Edie with money since Michi is an impossible buy.
You came all the way to Japan for money, just like Haiji, didn’t you?
Torii-san, who is a semi-nobility, couldn’t find a suitable bodyguard in the country.
That’s why she hired Adelheid-san from Europe.
And I’m also not a member of the nobility, just Misuzu’s fiance.
