But.from now on, think before you act. Your list is already a lot. It’s reaching the limit now
.Un
If you go beyond the limit.everyone might die. Make sure you always have the room to keep yourwomenwhere your hand can reach them.okay?
.Yes
I’m dumb.
I don’t have any special abilities either. I should figure the range of what I can do or I would just trouble everyone.
Megumi-chan and Mana-chan too.it’s about time you stop asking from Yoshida-kun always. Think about Yoshida-kun’s mind and body limit.
.Yes .Got it
The two nodded small
I’ve been prioritizing my own feelings that I’ve been asking too much from Yoshida-kun, I reflect on it.
Mana too.I’ve been depending on Onii-chan too much
.I
No.of course, you can rely on me anytime you feel lonely. I’m here for that reason
Thanks.Onii-chan.but Un.we also want to become girls Yoshi-kun could rely on!
Megu.Mana.
I’ll try to learn how to endure.and polish my femininity
Mana said.
Me too.I’ll do my best to become a good wife!
Megu swore to me.
With that said.Yoshida-kun, your list for the time being is.
Margo-san speaks.
Nei, Megumi-chan, Mana-chan.Nagisa-san, Katsuko-san.then, Misuzu-san and Michi-san, lastly and a bonus, Yukino-san, is that right?
Michi’s surprised.
I’m included?
Margo-san smiles.
That is theprioritylist of the people Yoshida-kun treasures. Yoshida-kun thinks of Kudou-san as his family long ago and he treasures you!
That is.I understand but.
Michi falters.
Margo-san.that’s not enough
I said.
Oh, right.I forgot Minaho too. Minaho’s much older than Yoshida-kun and she’s the guardian of the wholeKuromori.But she’s in Yoshida-kun’s list. Minaho’s surely pleased !
I.
No.it’s not just Minaho-neesan.you’re in my list too, Margo-san!
Margo-san’s surprised!
.Me?
Yes.Margo-san’s also my treasuredfamily We’re relatives. I think of you as my sister!
Margo-san.
Err.I
Nei-san speaks to the confused Margo-san.
Maru-chan.you should just saythanksat that time!
thanks.Yoshida-kun!
I make a list in my heart.
Minaho-neesan.Nagisa.Katsuko-nee.Margo-san.Nei-san.Misuzu.Megu.Mana.Michi.then, Yukino on the bottom.
That is my current family.
The people I should defend. I should concentrate on protecting these people. I should make a clear distinction to the other people. .If not I won’t be able to protect anyone with my power. I should know my own limit.
After the meal.Michi and I prepares to go outside.
Katsuko-nee and Nei-san switched and this time, Nei-san’s going to eat.
Yoshida-kun.bring this with you
Margo-san handed me three round go-like stones
There’s a switch on top of it.
It’s like a children’salert buzzer If you press the switch, it’ll make a tremendous loud alarm after 15 seconds!
It’ll roar a sound after a time difference.
The followers Cesario Viola brought were American style.
.American style?
It means they solve everything with guns1
.I see
The enemy’s supposed to be armed with firearms.
Even in America.during the first world war, there were a lot of people who returned home without even shooting a gun in the battlefield
Margo-san tells a story.
As expected.there’s quite a resolution needed to pull the trigger aiming at people. There wasn’t a lot of people who can pull the trigger without hesitation
.I see2
Therefore.in the current US military, they’re being trained to reflexively shoot at something moving. They were trained to pull the trigger arbitrarily before they could check if it was a human
.Does that mean?
Of course.there are a lot of mistaken fires as a result. There are many cases of they mistakenly shot and killed an ally. But, that’s the policy of the US army!
Margo-san looks at Michi.
Kudou-san.I think your father told you this but.don’t ever make a careless move in front of Cesario Viola’s minions. They shoot their guns by reflex. If you shoot your bloodlust straight ahead.you can just be shot .Yes
Michi answers.
Yoshida-kun too.don’t throw something towards the enemy. They would shoot at that moment!
Once you show a chance.they’ll shoot.
If you show a will to attack.they won’t hesitate.
This buzzer is used to curve their nature. Place it quietly on a place away from yourself in a way the enemy won’t notice
.Un
No matter how trained a human is.they will absolutely react to sudden events. That includes loud sounds and light. You can create a chance there
.I see
Got it.I will take this
I put theBuzzersin my pocket
Then.we’re going
When I say that.Nei-san who’s eating soumen.
Take care! I will be feeding Yukiyuki properly so don’t worry!
.Yukiyuki?
It’s already decided that girl is Yo-chan’s bitch! If she’s a human they could be jealous of her right?
Ah, that’s great! Mana will think of that too!
No.Mana
Yukino’s your real sister you know. Are you sure about that?
Mana will be taking care of Yukiyuki too.so take care!
.Is this okay?
.Haa
Right.if you think of her as not human, then you’d thinkwho cares!
Even Megu says that.
Ah, wait a moment!
Katsuko-nee runs holding a paper bag.
There’s a navy blue suit inside the bag.
What’s this Katsuko-nee
That would be the clothes you’re going to wear in Misuzu’s presentation today!
.Katsuko-nee
She’s been resizing this while in the middle of this business.
.Try wearing it for a bit
I try putting on the business suit.
Hmm.the length is just right. The sleeves are a bit jammed
Katsuko-nee marks it with a dress pin.
Following.I put on the pants.
I have to raise the hem for a bit.after that, there’s no problem
.Katsuko-neesan
Megu speaks to Katsuko-nee
Could you let me do it?
Katsuko-nee
Is that so.okay, that helps. Please
She smiled and handed Megu the pants
Ah, Mana wants to help out too!
Mana said that but.
Mana-chan.can you sew?
Err.I’ve sewn during our home economics class.
Mana’s in low spirits because of what Katsuko-nee said.
Mana.I will be doing it this time so watch. Next time, Mana will help out
Megu gently speaks to Mana.
Un, got it.Megu-oneechan!
Mana happily smiled.
.It’s really strange
Coming out of the school building.Michi told me.
There’s already nobody around. Most of the students have already left the school. There still some of them left but, the teachers will patrol and drive them out either way. The teachers would be coming home too then finally.the school would be unpopulated. It’ll take a bit of time I guess.
What’s strange?
I asked Michi.
The group Kuromori.Even though it’s a group of people without any blood relationship, they’re turning to a group united like afamily
Un.we are basically a group of people who lost their family so I think everyone thought that they want their ownfamily
When I answer.
Michi sends me a glance.
Yoshida.you don’t get anything.
.Eh?
Kuromori.is gathered around Yoshida. Although they’re people who originally thought aboutfamily.if it wasn’t for Yoshida, they won’t be gathered as a group in such a short time
Is that so?I just enteredKuromorirecently. Margo-san and Nei-san are already good terms with each other back then. But.Shirasaka house’s daughter, Mana-san naturally blends to the group as well. It’s not Mana-san but Mana.Mana’s Michi’sLittle sisterafter all. .You’re right
Michi’s cheeks blushed.
Before I knew it.I was also caught in the wave offamily-fication.
