Torii-san interjects from the side.

The other side is a scary person coming from the enemy territory. She might attack Misuzu-sama or Ruriko-sama if given the opportunity That won’t show up

Edie laughed.

But, it’s better if Misuzu and the girls aren’t present, yeah

Kansai Yakuza, the people who sent Tendou Otome, are hostile against Kouzuki house.

If someone from Kouzuki house is there, then she’ll strongly revolt.

Then, we’ll wait in another room. Ruriko? Yes, Onee-sama

Ruriko agreed.

Then, Agnes, come with Misuzu

I told Agnes.

Bururururu, bakerata!

Agnes shakes her head in refusal.

She’s clinging harder to me.

Err, Princes Agnes says. No, you don’t have to translate that one Koyomi-chan

Then, I speak to Agnes.

Do you not want to part from me? Bakerata!

Now she nods her head.

But you know.

Going to meet up with a spy while having Agnes cling to me.

I think that’s okay

Edie said.

Then, Misuzu looked at Mizushima Karen-san from behind her.

Did Tendou Otome do anything strange to you? Strange?

Karen-san tilts her head.

No, nothing in particular. She only made sure that I don’t reveal her true colors to the people around me

Tendou Otome became Mizushima Karen-san’s bodyguard to come here.

Did she tell you anything? No, it’s only been a week since she came, so we hardly talk. I never tried to start up a conversation with her

Hearing that, Edie;

She probably doesn’t want to forcibly involve some unrelated girl. That’s why she didn’t force any contact But, what about Takahama-san? Wasn’t she involved?

Bodyguards have no right to speak, so the young lady from Takahama products is the one who keeps on messing up Misuzu’s party.

That’s because it’s her preference

Edie said.

That young lady is in high school. And this one is in elementary. I think Tendou Otome prefers girls from the same generation, right?

Yeah, she doesn’t want to make a move on Karen-san, a 12-year-old girl.

She prefers Takahama-san, a high schooler, as her minion.

Therefore, she won’t make a move on Agnes. She can become a bulletproof vest for Darling if she clings like that

Edie’s laughing.

No, this soft and squishy cutie can’t become a bulletproof vest at all.

I think it’s better if Agnes-chan comes along

Ruriko said.

Perhaps, the scary guys from Kouzuki SS has already interrogated her. Onii-sama and Agnes-chan can be good enough to ease up her tension I get that, but why me too? Yeah. Ruriko’s right, Darling’s isn’t scary at all. Or should I say that you make people feel at ease

Edie said.

Really?

That’s not my intention though.

Don’t worry about it. Either way, I’m also coming

Edie said.

If Edie’s guarding us, it should be okay.

Michi, what about you?

Edie asks Michi, who’s following Misuzu silently.

I’ll continue guarding Misuzu-oneesama. I can leave Master to Edie for tonight, and if there’s the two of us there, it’ll only stimulate her

Michi replied.

Besides,

Huh?

Right, instead of a defender, an attacker, no, it should be someone with the training to infiltrate and takedown people, or else she will make a move

Edie learned assassination techniques from the assassination cult in New Orleans.

Edie’s the one keeping her in check earlier, so she was able to stop the escape attempt

Michi said. Edie looked at me.

Darling, Tsukiko’s power has another weak point.

Miko power?

Reading someone’s mind, understanding it, and making a specific way to deal with it has a time lag

Time lag?

Tsukiko noticed that Tendou Otome woke up, and thought of escaping during an opportunity. But, when she’s trying to stop her with her power, she’s already starting to move

I see.

Tsukiko knew the other side’s thoughts using Miko power, yet,

She’s too late to chase after Tendou Otome with her trained speed.

I just happened to be checking in, so it went well. I slammed Tendou Otome with my Qi as soon as she got up. Then, Tsukiko made her faint again. To be precise, she will not open her eyes unless Tsukiko orders her to wake up. While at it, Kouzuki SS has her tied up with their tools. Tsukiko’s watching her now I see, if she’s tied up, it’s still safe even if Tendou Otome wakes up suddenly. In short, when her consciousness returned, she confirmed the status in the room and moved to escape immediately

Michi said.

Correct. Before her consciousness is clear, her body responded ahead. Therefore, Tsukiko couldn’t deal with it. Then that means, Tendou Otome wants to live

Edie?

I think that’s her true feelings too

She looked at me.

Onii-sama, I’ve seen this TV documentary back then.

Ruriko said.

They say that the Islam extremist suicide bombing in Moscow was done by females

Suicide bombing?

That woman was from a poor village in central Asia, that after she died from exploding the bomb tucked in her stomach in the designated location, the family she left behind was paid handsomely, or so the documentary says O-Okay. She never left her hometown before, hopeless from her hard life, thinking that they don’t mind dying, so she went to Moscow with a bomb and travel expenses, but.

Ruriko smiled.

Seeing the gorgeous big-city landscape for the first time, she was moved and thought to think that there are these bright places in this world, suddenly, she felt that suicide bombing is an absurd idea. Thus, she didn’t blow herself up and surrendered to the police Oh, she wasn’t aware of the world other than the place she was born and raised.

When she saw that the world is much different, then.

I think that Tendou-san might be like that too

Her father is a Kyoukaku, and so she lived a life in yakuza since childhood.

Therefore, please teach her what fun is

Ruriko said.

Before Onii-sama taught me; I thought that the world is small, where it’s just Yoshiko-oneesama, me, and the people around me

Right.

Bakerata

Agnes looks at me.

Right, Agnes too

I pat Agnes’ back and shake her.

Okay, let’s go then This way

Edie’s the only one who knows the room where Tendou Otome is kept.

Ah, wait wait, I’m going too

Torii-san says in a hurry.

Huh? Safety isn’t a problem, right? Then I’m going too. I have Haiji with me

Err.

Can’t help it. Let’s bring her too I knew you’d get it

Torii-san and Edie are hitting it off since earlier.

But I don’t want to come though Geez, Haiji, you. Yes, I understand, I will come. Mariko-ojousama

Adelheid-san replied in a hateful tone.

I will go too

Koyomi-chan too?

It’s not just Tsukiko-sama, but Yomi-san and Luna-san are also present, aren’t they?

Oh, Koyomi-chan’s reading my thoughts.

Right, I told the Takakura sisters that they will change Tendou Otome’s personality.

If that’s the case, I should join in too

Koyomi-chan also has Miko power.

Okay, you’re coming too. Stand behind Edie, don’t go far from her Yes. Thank you Agnes, don’t part from me either, okay? Bakerata

She hugs me tighter.

Then, please take care

Misuzu and Ruriko send us off with a bow.

Ah, Nii-san!

Luna and Yomi are in front of the door.

Kuromori-sama asked us to wait here for Sensei, so we can go inside together

Yomi said.

Minaho-neesan moved the two here.

Tsukiko-oneesama said that her mind is quite twisted, so it’s better if we don’t stay in the same room.

Luna said.

Twisted? Yes. Earlier, Luna and I saw it. Her thoughts are messed up
