Kudou-papa seems to be unable to lament.

Do you know where those people are right now?

I only know that Yamaoka got out of the hotel.I don’t know anything ahead of that and I don’t want to know either. Instead of thefamilythat got away, I must follow the family I have for now. I have to think of their future Then.he looked at me.

I’ll leave Michi in your care. I’ve already given my permission to you.

.I

Yes. Leave this to me No.to us

.Us? Michi is a member of our family

Before I noticed.everyone in the room is already listening to our talk.

Katsuko-nee, Nagisa, Megu, and Mana. They nod looking at me.

We’ll all protect Michi-san.

On behalf of thefamily, Minaho-neesan speaks to Kudou-papa

That’s how it is.you don’t have to worry anymore!

Kyouko-san smiles.

That girl has good qualities.if she pairs up with that girl, they’ll be good warriors

For Kyouko-san, Michi and sister Edie is a set.

No.I’d be troubled if she becomes a warrior like you. That’s just my opinion

Kudou-papa replies with a bit of scared tone.

Kyouko-san’s overwhelming fighting power is also a threat to him it seems.

Well of course. It’s not good to become like me. But.I don’t want her to end up with half-baked abilities like you I’ll be educating her tightly!

Kyouko-san laughs happily

It’s fine. Margo-san is also with her.I won’t let them do the unreasonable

I followed in between.

.Then Sister Edie who’s playing with Mao-chan suddenly speaks to Kyouko-san .What?

You see.Edie-chan seems to have taken a liking to Mao-chan

Eh.Mana?

You can understand English?

Isn’t that obvious? I learned it at school.

No, I started learning English from first year middle school though.

I didn’t get what Edie just said.

Mana’s school is different from the norm

Megu tells Mana.

.Oh right. Mana’s school has a lower status than Misuzu’s school, but. It’s still a pretty famous girls’ middle school. The English conversations.is practically on a different level Meanwhile, sister Edie continues to talk.

You see.Edie-chan knows that Mao-chan is Nagisa-san’s daughter.then, she seems to have heard from Michi-chan that she’s aimouto-bunof Nagisa-san Then, for Edie-chan, Michi-chan is the same as a sister right? Therefore, by putting it all together.she asked if she’s going to be Mao-chan’sObaa-san bun!

.Hmm

It’s all about bun

Hey, Mana-chan. Could you translate what I’m going to say?

Nagisa asks Mana.

Sure, I can!

Mana talks to sister Edie in English.

It seems that she’s telling what Nagisa’s telling her. Nagisa.

Edie-san, thank you for liking Mao. But you see.you don’t have to mind the relationship hierarchy. If Edie-san wants it then she can be Mao’sonee-chandirectly!

Mana translates, then.sister Edie’s face turned brighter.

Sure, I’ll be Mao-chan’s Onee-chan! She said.

Mana said, Nagisa looks at Mao-chan.

Mao, this lady will become Mao’sOnee-chantoo

Mao-chan.

Yay.I’ve made a lot ofOnee-chantoday too! Kishishi!

She happily smiled.

Chapter 343

Chapter 343. A good sign

Good morning everyone

Nei-san enters the room with Margo-san

Showing a refreshed face.

You’re late! Everyone’s waiting for you!

Mana tells Nei-san.

Sorry, Mana!

Nei-san doesn’t usechanon herlittle sistersanymore

Nei-oneesan.have some tea

Megu immediately brings in tea

Thanks.Megu

Everyone except Kudou-papa noticed Nei-san’s change.

But, nobody talks about it. It’s fine having thefamilyknow it themselves.

Anyway, let’s eat?

Minaho-neesan said, the breakfast begins.

The dining table is filled with laughter. Nei-san, Margo-san, Kyouko-san, Mana.are talking with sister Edie in English. There are times Kyouko-san tease sister Edie but.Margo-san follows it up skillfully. Well.Edie also knows the difference in ability so she may get angry at Kyouko-san but she doesn’t revolt.

I’m still making some eggs so eat a lot

Katsuko-nee tells me.

Yoshi-kun, do you need a refill?

Megu’s being tactful.

She’s completely into being the chairman of the family.

Thanks. I want another drink

.Okay

Megu happily brings the teapot and pour in the tea in the cup.

I look at Nei-san. Nei-san hasn’t told anyone that I’ll beKuromori Keitoyet. She’s not calling meKeieither. She seems to think that it’s not the time to tell them. Does she intend to say that only to the family when we return to the mansion? Or does she not intend to say it until she has sex with me? Well.anything’s fine We have plenty of time.

.Ding dong

The room bell rings.

.Someone’s here?

Ah, I’ll go check it!

Mana leaves the table to see who it is

Then, she came back right away

.It’s Reika-oneesan!

Reika’s still in her yellow jersey from last night.

She has the cane in her hand. She enters the room behind Mana, showing her blushing from embarrassment face.

Good morning, Reika-oneesan!

Nei-san’s morning greeting is repeated by the younger ones.

Good Morning! Reika-oneesan!

.good morning

Reika answers downcast.

Please wait for a while. Reika-oneesan’s bacon and eggs will be ready soon

Katsuko-nee stands up.

Reika-oneesan, take a seat. I’ll prepare tea right away

Megu invites Reika to an empty seat.

No.uhm, I.

What’s wrong, Reika-oneesan.why so nervous?

Margo-san asks Reika

That.I

I.

Take a seat first. We can’t talk with you standing right there

O-Okay.

Reika takes a seat.

.What’s up?

Kyouko-san looks at Reika smiling.

.Uhm

It’s fine.you can tell us anything

Reika keeps looking down.

I’m ashamed of myself.

.Ashamed?

I have always been a frog in the well. I was overconfident of my own power.

You noticed it yourself? Isn’t that great?

Kyouko-san tells Reika.

You’re still young so if you find yourself wrong, then you can start over again

Yes.thank you very much

Reika obediently thanked her.

But, I.I don’t know if it’s okay for me to continue like this

What’s this about? Last night.I was introduced into the family. But, is it really okay for an odd inexperienced person like me to be everyone’s ally? Ever since I saw my reflection of my face in the mirror this morning, I became really scared .Reika

Hmm. I don’t know about that though. I don’t know how to deal with this so, You deal with this

Kyouko-san looks at my face.

Reika.do you want to take back your words about becoming ourfamily?

No, that’s not the case. It’s just that.last night I was a fool who forgot myself.joining in your family means joining Misuzu-sama’s family. To think that I’ll be in such a big relationship with the head of Kouzuki family.Thinking about it again, I felt like it’s something I shouldn’t be allowed to. Oh, you felt shivering this morning.

Minaho-neesan said.

We’re not forcing you to anything. It’s all for Reika to decide herself

I answered

Is it okay to be this selfish?

Reika looks at me with upturned eyes.

Even if you tell me that. I have no authority on deciding on Reika’s life. .But

.No. Reika-oneesan. Once you promised to join ourfamilyyou can’t take it back anymore

Nei-san said.

Look.you too, you should get angry sayingSelfishness is unforgivable

She looks at me with strong eyes as she speak.

We’refamilyalready!

.Nei-san.

You see,.it’s not good for Reika-oneesan to leave us now. Therefore, you won’t be let go, you won’t be freed. Give it up and just eat with everyone!
