Misuzu smiled and said.

Enjoying the party is a way of consideration for others. Naturally, speaking your thoughts for the meals are included Yes, let’s go, Mariko-san

Kanou-san stands up and heads to the meals in the catering.

what? Just go by yourself, Kanou-san

Torii-san complained.

We need to show the other young ladies that we made peace after Misuzu-sama made arrangements. This is the gratitude for Misuzu-sama’s care Haa. I get it, we cannot cause more troubles on Kouzuki-sama’s party any more than this

Torii-san stood up.

Shie-san, Kanou-san’s bodyguard, walks behind her like it’s natural.

Torii-san noticed that.

Haiji, let’s go

She calls Adelheid-san behind her, but.

Adelheid-san’s not moving.

Right, very well. I’ll end my contract with you by the end of the month

Adelheid-san looked at Torii-san in surprise.

There’s no other way. I cannot have you around me after embarrassing me that way

Adelheid-san looks down with a teary face.

Torii-san looks at Kurama-san.

If possible, I’ll take Kurama-san’s two bodyguards. Naturally, that means Torii house will pay the transfer fee to Kurama house. Your family needs every little bit of money, right?

Kurama Misato and Arisu don’t answer.

we! We!

Anjou Mitama and Kinuka try to refuse Torii-san, but.

I’m not talking to you two

She’s showing that she’s negotiating with the Master.

Oh well. You have until the end of the party to think about it. I had to stay until the end, after all. I’d prefer not to go home without a bodyguard

That means she wants to hire Mitama-san and Kinuka-san and go home with them.

Well, it doesn’t have to be you two anyway

Torii-san leaves the table with Kanou-san.

Danna-sama

Misuzu calls me

I head to Misuzu along with the disguised Luna.

Ruriko and Shou-neechan come over.

Edie’s behind Michi.

On the other hand, Michi and Yomi are separated from us.

If Yomi and Luna are together, they’ll find out that Luna was the girl who fought Kyouko-san earlier.

Tendou Otome, the Kansai Yakuza spy, is still there.

Rei-chan and Margo-san are having a friendly chat with their fans.

Yoshiko-san’s keeping company of the young ladies of the Kouzuki group.

That was amazing, Misuzu

I said.

I’m worried that things might go sought, but you managed to settle them down Well, only half of it, yes

Misuzu said.

Right, Tendou Otome might still have some tricks up her sleeve.

But, I was worried. I thought of various countermeasures with Michi and Yomi, and yet

For now, let’s put them to use.

We also brainstormed

Misuzu smiled.

Ruriko and I are in the frontlines of Kouzuki house’s battlefield

Right.

Misuzu and Ruriko will continue their lives as daughters of the nobility.

Just a bit more and you will take hold of the young ladies’ thoughts

Shou-neechan said.

For the bodyguards of the young ladies to accept the control of Kouzuki SS.

The bodyguards have to be with them for 24 hours a day.

And they’ll become aware of that house’s movements.

And another one

Edie smiled.

That’s why we will cause a disturbance for that

A disturbance?

Edie goes to Adelheid-san, who’s feeling depressed.

Hey! You! Yes, you

Adelheid-san looked up. Edie smiled.

Doesn’t look good for you, does it? Your life in Japan might be over already

Yeah, in this situation.

Torii-san will dismiss Adelheid-san, and no other family will hire her.

She failed on her exaggerated A-class license, her way of promoting herself.

But, do you have the skill? My skill? I’m asking if you’re useful

Edie said. Adelheid-san looks blankly.

Maybe not now. The party just started, but something will happen in 25 minutes Something? A sideshow for the party!

Edie said.

Chapter 856. High Life My worth is too low?

New names introduced in High Life Arc.

Young ladies and their bodyguards

Kanou Sakurako 16yo Daughter of Kanou house, a family with a long history rivaling Kouzuki house.

Shiranui Shie 17 yo Sakurako’s bodyguard. A daughter of a family that serves Kanou house for generations.

Torii Mariko 16 yo Young lady of Torii electronics. She seems cut off from others, unable to read the mood.

Haiji Katori 13 yo Mariko’s bodyguard. However, a girl hired by contract. Half-race.

Kurama Misato 18 yo. Daughter of Kurama house, which is sinking. Planned to become a prostitute.

Kurama Arisu 13 yo. Misato’s little sister. Always covers up her sister.

Anjou Mitama 18 yo. Misato’s bodyguard. Will attack from the sky – Favorite phrase. Silent.

Anjou Kinuka 13 yo. Arisu’s bodyguard. Thick nerves.

Kuromiya Motoko 17 yo. A young warrior lady. Kuromiya spearmanship instructor.

Mikuriya Kurumi 14 yo Motoko’s bodyguard, a fluffy-haired cute girl.

Kansai Yakuza spy

Tendou Otome 17 yo She infiltrated as a bodyguard of the granddaughter of Mizushima holdings’ president.

Do you know why you failed?

Edie asks Adelheid-san.

Ah, Edie’s now closer to us, and so.

Michi and Yomi are moving to distance themselves from us now.

Yeah, Yomi will be checking on the other young ladies and their bodyguards.

Tendou Otome-san, the Kansai Yakuza spy, is on the table far from us.

She’s talking to her Master, the young lady speaking for her.

They’re probably planning on doing something.

That’s because Seki-sama from Kouzuki SS hindered me

Adelheid-san glared at Edie and replied.

Yes, you called?

Shou-neechan turns around.

Hmm, not really

Edie says, smiling wryly.

but.

Adelheid-san seems unconvinced.

Then, let’s change the question. Your former master called out to the sisters over there after saying dismissing you

Sisters. She means the Anjou sisters.

Anjou sisters looked at Edie and Adelheid-san.

No, their Masters, the Kurama sisters. Kanou-san and Shie-san as well.

Torii-san’s the only one who’s on the catering side and is biting on a sandwich.

However, nobody comes close to her. I guess the young ladies avoid her.

Then, why do you think it was them?

Edie smiled at Adelheid-san.

Mariko-ojousama needs a new bodyguard to replace me

Adelheid-san speaks in frustration.

That’s all? What else do I know?

Adelheid-san is angry.

You derived your conclusion with yourself at the center. And since you evaluate yourself highly, it’s natural you think that way What are you trying to say? I’m a first-class bodyguard!

Adelheid-san said. Edie laughed.

I thought so too. Maybe you’re telling the truth. You might be strong I get it. If you’re going that far, then let’s fight!

Adelheid-san takes a stance.

Too early. Everyone just started eating. The sideshow is for later Don’t call my strength a sideshow!

As soon as she said that, Edie released a strong Qi.

Ugu!

Adelheid-san’s unable to move after applying Qi on her.

Listen to what I’m saying

Adelheid-san glared at Edie.

Sure, you might be strong. At least, you think that you have the skill.However

On the other hand, Edie speaks with an unbreaking smile.

Nobody knows that. You can evaluate yourself as strong as much as you want, but others will only react, Huh? What do you mean? I’m an A-rank graduate of the academy!

Adelheid-san objects. Still unable to move.

And that’s why the reaction is Huh? What’s that?

Edie laughed.

Japan is a country that focuses on achievements more. You can graduate from all the well-known academy, but if you’re lacking in actual experience, then they’ll treat you as a beginner
