.I
You’ll do your best for Misuzu’s sake, won’t you?
Yeah.if it’s for Misuzu
Then I’ll do anything
No matter what it is.
Ufufu.Danna-sama!
Misuzu rubs her cheeks on me
I’m looking forward to it.Aah, I’ll become even happier. Together with Danna-sama, we’ll be even happier!
Why is me learning how to be first classMisuzu’s happiness.I don’t know
But.It’s fine as long as she’s happy.
What do you think, Ruriko-san?
Misuzu turns to Ruriko.
My Danna-sama is like this. Truly pure, gentle, honest, has a sense of responsibility.he’ll never betray those who he have accepted. He’s like this that’s why I decided to be with him forever!
Yes.I think so as well me too.
Michi.that’s a bit different.
But, I must be the only one who can be a serious master of this girl with a difficult personality. I think I’ve got to take care of her for the rest of my life.
Michi
.Yes
Michi comes close
I pat Michi’s head
What’s wrong? Master?
Nah.Michi’s just so cute .Yes? Just let me pat your head then.please go on
Michi said bashfully.
Then.what about you Ruriko-san? Do you want to join in ourfamily?
Misuzu invites Ruriko.
But.I
Ruriko looks at her grandfather.
Kakka’slooking at us with a gloomy face,
I must live as grandfather desires.
Ruriko still think that she’s underKakka’scontrol
It’s not unreasonable. She has been raised thinking that it’s the natural thing to do.
I was the same. Born as the daughter of Kouzuki house.I have always thought that I must devote this body to Kouzuki house, that i must follow Grandfather’s will
Misuzu speaks to her cousin.
But.I was mistaken. My life isn’t in Kouzuki.but with Kuromorifamily
Ruriko-san listens to Misuzu’s talk seriously,
Kakka’snot moving, like he’s overwhelmed.
Of course.I still can’t escape the curse that I was born in Kouzuki family. But.thisfamilyis with me, therefore I have the power to fight my fate
.Misuzu
Ruriko-san, come to us. Danna-sama and I.a lot ofsistersare waiting for you The bond of ourfamilyis thicker than blood. Ourfamilywill never abandon you, Never betray you, We will help you no matter what happens. You no longer need to be alone
Misuzu desperately solicits, but Ruriko.
but.I have Yoshiko
Yoshiko-san looks at Ruriko with a sad f ace.
Misuzu.
.Yoshiko-san can be free anytime after this. Yoshiko-san isn’t under Kouzuki bloodline after all
Ruriko’s surprised.
Yoshiko-san.if Ruriko-san gives her freedom, she can fall in love with someone she truly loves, even have a normal marriage.she’s different from us
Yoshiko-san is Ruriko’sretainerin the end.
She’s not tied by the curse of Kouzuki house. If Ruriko releases her from herRetainerrole.Yoshiko can freely love.
But.I want to be by Ruriko-san’s side all the time
Yoshiko-san mutters in pain.
I can understand Yoshiko-san’s feelings but, reality.if Ruriko-san marries to a noble family, then you have to break apart
If she becomes a bride on a house that’s not Kouzuki.
That house won’t pick up Yoshiko-san, her attendant. In order to block the contact between Ruriko and the Kouzuki family. The man who will be Ruriko’s husband will try to lick her up in his house. Afraid that their house’s private information would be flowing into Kouzuki house. Moreover, Ruriko’s husband will corner her so she can’t rely on anyone but himself. Later.he’ll try to use Ruriko, his wife as a card to bargain with Kouzuki family.
Of course.there are foolish men who will propose to Yoshiko-san only to gain connection with Ruriko-sa . However, Yoshiko-san can decide her own life. No.Ruriko-san must let Yoshiko-san freely live her own life!
Ruriko looks at Yoshiko-san.
.She’s right. I have to free Yoshiko sooner or later.
Ruriko-sama.I!
Ruriko interrupts Yoshiko-san.
Yoshiko.I’m grateful for your loyalty. But, you’re not from the Kouzuki lineage so you’ll never be happy if you go along with my fate. I do not wish for that!
Ruriko’s words made Yoshiko-san fall silent.
We.just by living, will be used for the power relationship between Kouzuki family and other famous families. Therefore.I was unable to make a best friend since I was born. I wasn’t even allowed to talk to men
Yes.That is the fate of the Kouzuki house’s daughter But, if this continues.we can’t be happy
Misuzu said.
Therefore.I entered Kuromori family. I’m happy right now. I have someone I love. I have a family I can trust. I’ve got a lot of elder and little sisters. Everyone will be happy. In order to be happy, we’re afamilywith one mind!
.I’m envious of Misuzu-oneesama
Ruriko said.
Onee-sama’s courage.and a wonderful gentleman named Kuromori-sama. Kind people you can call your family.I’m really envious
But.Ruriko rejects.
I am the eldest daughter of Kouzuki house. I’m the head family’s blood daughter. I can’t possibly live like Onee-sama!
.Ruriko
I have already dedicated this body to Kouzuki house. I will live as grandfather tells me. I’ll marry the man grandfather desires.and after marriage, I’ll live as my husband tells me!
Ruriko-san.then, that just makes you a doll!
Misuzu shouts.
Yes.a doll. I don’t mind living as a doll
Ruriko smiles sadly.
In that doll-like life.Yoshiko and Onee-sama has given me some human like emotions. I am grateful. Ruriko can live with that memory alone!
Ruriko.you
You’re that willing to devote your life to Kouzuki family? Throwing all of your human emotions.
Are you okay with this.Shige-chan?
Nagisa tellsKakka
Is Kouzuki house that important? Even though you say it’s ahouse.you don’t have afamily!
Kakka.
That’s right.Kouzuki house is different from an ordinaryhouse Although it’s a huge system of complicated interpersonal relationship.we’re not afamily Even if we’re connected by blood, we never trust them truly. We’re in a relationship where you don’t know when you’ll be betrayed. What binds Kouzuki house isprofit.not thetrustamong kin Gloomy eyes.
Therefore.Shige-chan picked up Misuzu and Ruriko-san from your sons, right? To make them your ownfamily!
Kakka’seyes opened wide from what Nagisa said.
.I
Ever since as a kid.until you owned Kouzuki house, you were always alone, aren’t you? Shige-chan. You never had any friends to laugh together, right? Not even someone you can fully trust. Therefore, Shige-chan wants to be friends with his granddaughters!
Everyone in the room pays attention toKakka
When I lost my eldest son.when I lost the successor I raised with great care.everything became empty.
Kakkamutters
I see.it might be as Nagisa-kun says. I might be seekingfamilythrough Misuzu and Ruriko
Kakkalaughs.
I see.that’s why I wanted a girl not a boy. If it’s a boy.then I’d just re-do the successor making again. My heart won’t feel at ease. I’ve isolated them from other men because I want to make themfamilywith only me.fufufu, fuahahahaha
Kakkalaughs at himself.
What a foolish thing.Kouzuki Shigetaka is such a small caliber!
.I wonder?
Nagisa asks.
Seeing Shige-chan’s human side.it makes Sensei very happy!
Then. Nagisa uses her last trump card.
Hey.Shige-chan. Won’t you enter ourfamily?
The air stiffens.
How about becoming the grandfather of Kuromorifamily?You can have a lot of cute granddaughters right now!
Kakkalooks at Nagisa.
You’re intending to entice me?
Shige-chan.there’s no enticing in our relationship is there? Sensei have seen Shige-chan’s anus after all
Nagisa smiles.
Let me tell you beforehand.what we’re only recruiting is only a grandfather role in our family. It’s already decided that he’ll be the husband
