They have the same father, and yet,

Yukino’s received a good life, while Megu’s poor family was abused.

Therefore, for Megu, Yukino is.

Then, last May, Megumi and Yukino-san’s position changed, and so Megumi got carried away. Knowing that I still pampered her. I’ve made her grow impudent

Minaho-neesan.

But, that’s only until now. I think that she should grow even for a bit. I mean, children like Yoshinobu is rare. You never float away even when your environment changes

Sorry

Don’t be. I’m praising you

Minaho-neesan smiles wryly.

But I realized it this time that Megumi’s gone a little too far. She’s holding insecurity towards the other family, yet she’s becoming arrogant being with you. It’s messed up. I don’t think that Megumi herself know what’s what. I didn’t watch over her seriously. Sorry No, I don’t think that’s the problem

I.

I’m the one who always tries to do something whenever Megu’s facing a problem. I’m the only man in this family after all

I don’t understand it, and so I couldn’t deal with it.

I couldn’t prevent Megu’s twisted growth.

That’s wrong. Megumi’s problem isn’t something that can be resolved by a man and a woman

Minaho-neesan said.

There’s that case. Since you are Megumi’s man, you cannot fix her insecurities. It’s that kind of problem

Oh. I see.

Megu’s caught by,

Her desire to create a position in the family as a woman.

Therefore, her insecurities target Misuzu and Nei, and all the other women.

And if I, a man meddles in, it only creates a complicated situation.

You’ve noticed it sensibly. Therefore, you were trying your best not to speak earlier, weren’t you? Yoshinobu, your intuition’s sharp after all

Yeah, I didn’t say anything that much earlier.

The problem is that Nei and the girls lose their temper and they keep giving Megumi ultimatums

Huh?

Just like in school earlier. Nei and the girls used shock therapy to let Megumi see the reality in front of her, they’re trying to make her understand Megumi’s standpoint, but

All Megu did was say that she’s become, my slave.

She abandoned thinking.

Unable to think of what she should do, she just left everything to me.

Naturally, that didn’t reach any solution.

Megu herself still hasn’t resolved the conflict inside her head.

Her anxiety and dissatisfaction just piled up even further.

Seriously, Nei, Misuzu-san, and Edie are too smart for their own good. They think of everything through logic because of that. They believe that the other party is as intelligent as them

Minaho-neesan.

But, Megumi’s not that smart, her comprehension speed is on a different level. She deals with it with her emotions before making a logical comprehension. But, Nei and the girls won’t understand that kind of slow mind. They’re intelligent after all Yeah.

Therefore, I was really wondering what to do. Even if I give my verdict, Megumi’s heart will remain closed. And I couldn’t return here until I finished processing information with Kouzuki SS. There’s also the case with Kouzuki-sama The reason why she didn’t sneak out halfway was for Megu.

Mego-san and Shou-neechan thinks that Minaho-neesan wants to work with Kouzuki SS

Seriously, I was wondering what to do. Who would’ve thought that Yukino-san’s the answer

Minaho-neesan looked at Yukino.

I told you that’s wrong Yukino!

What are you talking about, Megumi?

The two curse at each other.

Having someone that you can knock ideas against each other is the best. Those girls have similar personalities in their root

They’re sisters after all

I said.

They’re not just sisters. They’re of the same age, and they know each other well, and so they don’t hold back when fighting. Having someone on the same level means that Megumi won’t be acting strange anymore, I believe Maybe.

If Misuzu or Nei tells her something, Megu will accept it even though her heart is rejecting. After all, she’s a good girl who subdues her emotions.

She thinks that Misuzu and others are far more superior than her.

But, if it’s with Yukino.

Yukino speaks harshly, yet it’s precise.

Megu opposes with a loud voice as she’s unable to subdue her emotions, but,

If she thinks that Yukino’s right, Megu would accept it.

There’s no opposition inside her head.

Oh, I get it

I thought.

Yukino’s been trying to act like a good girl in the class during the start

A girl loved by everyone, kind, cheerful.

That’s right. Just like Megumi. She also tries to act like a good girl, doesn’t she? They’re similar

I see.

They know each other well, and so they throw insults at each other.

They don’t feel insecurity towards each other.

I’m glad. For both Megu and Yukino

If they’re fighting that much, I’m sure that they’ll get along well.

Yeah, people need someone like that in their lives

Agnes has Luna.

Mana has Yomi.

And,

Megu has Yukino.

A counter partner, someone you can face straight up

Yeah.

But, Yoshinobu, did you know?

Minaho-neesan said.

You’ll never be able to have someone like that

1. Now that it was in Katakana, I found out that it’s actually Yoshinikou, not Yoshikou

Chapter 762

Actually, it would be ideal if you have a boy of the same age and same-sex you can call a close friend

Minaho-neesan said.

A close friend you can be honest with. But knowing your situation, that would be impossible

Minaho-neesan looked at the girls around the bathroom.

Yoshinobu’s the sole male in our family, and you’re also the cornerstone of it. This family will not allow another man inside

That’s

Edie-san did give a metaphor about a group of lions, and she’s right. Our family only needs one male

I’m the male lion, the center of the group.

If there’s a possibility that, just like Yukino-san and Megumi, you have someone with the same personality, then there won’t be a problem having two males in the group. But that’s impossible. No one’s as equally exceptional as you Am I that odd?

I asked Minaho-neesan.

It’s special, not odd. You accept all our desires, don’t you? You never say no. You don’t think that it’s bothersome. You don’t think of it as a hardship, you believe that it’s natural to answer the wishes of your family I mean, we’re family

I replied.

It’s natural for me to do all that I can if possible as long as everyone wishes for it

That’s your world

Minaho-neesan speaks in a lonely tone.

And that is why you’re our cornerstone, and that’s also why we love you. That, we do. We love you. And we’re grateful to you. We’re all happy to be by your side

No, I’m not.

What’s natural to you, is supreme bliss to us. There’s someone who always takes us seriously and will come to our rescue no matter what

But.

I’m going to come no matter what. I mean, I don’t have any strengths. I can’t do anything. I’ve fully understood that this day

I’ve been desperately thinking of what I could do for the Takakura sisters.

I kept on searching for what I could do for them.

But, after the confrontation with the Yakuza today,

All I did was watch, I couldn’t do anything.

I’m powerless.

Minaho-neesan and Jii-chan placed me there to let me understand that I’m just an ordinary high school boy, that it’s meaningless even if I act rashly out of foolishness

Being on the same floor with the Yakuza;

Jii-chan’s watching from above. And I couldn’t make contact with the frightened Takakura sisters.

All I did was watch Jii-chan talk it out with Kiyomi-san and the Kansai Yakuza.

You don’t get it, do you? You’re not a man who’ll come to rescue no matter what, but a man who’ll help out no matter what. Do you understand the difference?
