To be honest, Edie’s worth more than you. If she does her job, she can easily pay 60 million yen in a year! I don’t want that Why? I’m a man. I won’t let my women do dangerous things
I look straight to Miss Cordelia’s eyes.
Then, you’ll do the dangerous jobs. How about putting a bomb in your stomach and you approach the target? Then, get a 60 million yen life insurance and have you pay me that way? Sure
I replied immediately.
I mean. Why are you not loaning from Minaho? Minaho has at least that much money
Kyouko-san asks me.
I know Then why? Minaho won’t ask for interest from you, right? Besides, you can borrow not just from Minaho but also old man Kouzuki too
Will Jii-chan lend me money?
No, Jii-chan should understand that I need a bodyguard of my age in addition to Michi.
Misuzu and Ruriko can both call that they need Edie.
I’m sure that Jii-chan would lend 60 million yen.
But.
But, I must not depend on people around me
I replied.
I should avoid those to become Edie’s man
Miss Cordelia.
Man, I see
She looks at Kyouko-san with a stunned expression.
Men. They don’t let their wives do the work, get drunk, do drugs, and gamble like crazy, right? Well, that’s the case on the Brazilian slums where I grew up! It was the same with my childhood in Detroit
Err.
So what does this boy plan on doing if he won’t let Edie who has so much use for work? Well, if it’s just his earnings alone, it would take a lifetime to pay 60 million yen
Miss Cordelia and Kyouko-san look at me questioningly.
Yo-chan’s a Japanese man!
Nei said.
Indeed, it feels like he’s not rich enough, but his spirit is! Onee-chan will support you!
Nei also thinks that it’s impossible for me to earn a lot of money.
I mean, you should rely on us more! 60 million yen is just a piece of cake! Right, Minaho-oneechan?
Nei looks at Minaho-neesan.
I’ll pay 60 million yen
Minaho-neesan.
No, but I’m your elder sister. And I intend to be Edie-san’s elder sister too. It’s natural for me to dish out money for you Me too
Katsuko-nee said.
What about you Nagisa?
Katsuko-nee said. Nagisa smiles.
I don’t mind but, Margo-chan’s thinking of something, right?
Margo-san?
Look, in other words, you don’t want Edie to do high-risk jobs like Miss Cordelia’s criminal activities, right?
She asks me smiling.
Or could it be that you don’t want Edie to work outside? Could it be that you have the old-fashioned idea of not letting women work and have her stay in the house?
that’s not it.
Of course not! After all, there’s Katsuko-nee’s bakery, Nagisa’s flower shop, I just want her to do what she wants
It’s not that I don’t want Edie to work outside.
Then, are you okay with Edie working as long as it’s not in the underground society? Well, yeah
I replied.
Then, have Edie earn by herself to pay off Miss Cordelia
Margo-san said.
Edie herself needs to work hard to buy her freedom But, how can she earn?
Edie doesn’t know the world other than her assassination cult.
She only knows fighting techniques.
Bounty hunting. I was thinking of going that path as well
Margo-san smiles.
I haven’t learned much about mixed martial arts and pro fighters in women’s division overseas so much, but I’ll manage. If it’s a sport, you’ll consent, right?
Margo-san and Edie becoming a pro mixed martial arts fighter?
Fighting overseas?
No way, they’re leaving Japan?
No, well, if it’s a typical sport, sure
If it’s not a genuine fight to the death, then sure.
Margo, are you serious?
Kyouko-san’s surprised.
I would like to do self-advertising to make my dream come true
Margo-san replied.
Self-advertising. To make dreams come true?
Minaho’s revenge has ended already
She looks at MInaho-neesan smiling.
Margo
Minaho-neesan mutters.
I planned to stay with Minaho until everything’s settled. But, it’s over now, Minaho has a lot of family now even without me
You’re also family! You’re as important! That’s tight! Margo-oneechan is also a precious member of the family!
Minaho-neesan and Nei said.
Uhm, I feel the same way. Margo-san is my big sister
I said. Margo-san.
Thanks. I also think of everyone as family. Therefore, I’d like to challenge myself to make my dreams come true
Margo-san.
I have a family I can return to any time
She smiles at me.
Tsk. If you insist
Nei said.
But, not now. I allow you, but you need to be Margo Starkweather Kuromori, not just Margo Starkweather
That means being adopted to Kuromori family.
I’ll be Kuromori Yasuko you know!
Nei said.
Yes, please do, Margo
Minaho-neesan said
Please Yeah, I know. I will
Margo-san replied.
I mean, although I’ll occasionally participate in overseas matches, I’ll train in Japan. apart from that, I don’t plan on being away from everyone
Huh?
It will be the same as always. I will just go to another country once in a while. Therefore Edie and I will continue our daily life with everyone so don’t show such a stiff face
what.
It wasn’t something to worry about.
Anyway, Edie can earn money on the surface. You’re okay with that, right?
Margo-san smiles.
I have no objections, of course.
Then, Cordelia-san, I’ll pay 60 million
Minaho-neesan said.
Then, Edie and Margo-oneechan will pay that off with fight money
Nei laughs.
Yeah, I’ll be looking after that girl in the martial arts world, and she’ll go to school with everyone for her usual life
Margo-san said.
Then there are no problems here Yes
Nagisa and Katsuko-nee look happy.
But.
Kyouko-san and Miss Cordelia’s showing a very sullen look!
what, is there a problem?
I ask.
Then.
You all really can’t read the atmosphere!
Kyouko-san.
Kyouko, do I really look like a woman who wants money so much? No, no. Cordelia. It’s just that these children have their eyes clouded But, these people think that I’m a money-monger! That’s not true! Right?
The two hug each other.
Huh?
Uhm, could it be that you weren’t serious about the 60 million yen?
I ask timidly.
Obviously! Ugh! They really think of me as a money monger!
Miss Cordelia fakes crying in Kyouko-san’s chest.
Look, I was planning to join you guys, but
Kyouko-san said.
No, that’s right. Kyouko-san is in our family. You’re our dad
I replied.
Dad?
Kyouko-san glares at me.
No, a mom would do too Onee-chan! I’m your God Onee-chan!
Awawawa.
Yes, uhm, as the eldest sister Remove the -est!
Kyouko-san scolds me.
Well, don’t mind it now! I’m the eldest sister in the house, and Cordelia’s my lover! Girls can get married in other countries! yes Then! Cordelia’s obviously a member of the family too! Err. That’s right! I wasn’t seriously asking for 60 million yen from you all!
Miss Cordelia shouts.
My plan was to culture Edie to becoming a lesbian and savor her deliciously but, she got interested in this man, so I had to give up! I still have Kyouko I also have Cordelia Eenie and Meenie are also with me, so I don’t feel that frustrated!
I see now. Yes.
Anyway, I was just testing you, making sure that you were serious about Edie! And yet! Why is everyone treating Cordelia like a villain! aahn! Kyouko! Cordelia!
The lesbians hug each other.
Ah, sorry for a lot
