Besides, you have talent. Even if it’s a shorterm course, you graduated at that age because you skipped grades, haven’t you?
She’s trained her body. Besides, she’s also smart.
My talents aren’t that important. I understood that when I saw the people in this mansion. I saw how overweening I was
That’s.
Michi, Edie, Shou-neechan & Rei-chan, Margo-san, Kyouko-san, and Miss Cordelia.
Seeing all those extremely strong people.
Yeah, well, you’d feel down. It’s normal. But you see, Kyouko-san is someone who breaks the rules
No, I overestimated myself that I can cross over the society by myself that I feel embarrassed to the core
That’s.
You’re overstretching. Haiji. You thought that you have to do it alone. That’s all
She had no person she can rely on and nobody to protect her.
That’s why she’s steeled herself and became standoffish.
She became wary of antagonism from others that she created a wall around herself.
It often happens. I experienced that too
When I just entered high school, I didn’t make any friends.
Thinking about it, that is communication disorder itself.
I couldn’t trust anyone because my parents abandoned me.
I’m too cautious of the people around me that my speech became unclear and I acted suspiciously.
Luckily, I met my family. Therefore, I’m saved
I wanted to talk to Haiji before having sex with her.
This world has a lot of evil intent, see? People who are so much of a scum that they can do anything just to satisfy their desires
Shirasaka Sousuke and Cesario Viola for example.
Right, there’s also the Kansai Yakuza who had control of the Takakura shrine.
They’re guys who are happy to make people kneel, plunder, cause misfortune on someone.
No, it’s not just the big-shot criminals.
You can find people who have ill-intent in your daily lives.
People who will bully someone once they show an opportunity.
Those who assault the weak to relieve their stress.
Ill-intent will always come after us.
My Granma’s the only one I can talk to back then. When she died, I created a wall around me like a hamster, held my breath, erased my presence, and lived that way
That was me back then.
There was no blood-related parents who protect me in my home, in school, anywhere
Right.
My parents abandoned me
Haiji.
I understand that
Huh?
I went through the same experience when Mother died. I didn’t trust anyone around me. They were evil who pretend to be good
This girl is smart, and so she can see what’s behind the words of the adults.
Therefore, she never got fooled and experienced cruelty, however.
She became unable to trust people as well.
Without anyone to protect me, I had to survive on my own. That’s what I thought all the time too
Haiji said Too
There’s the difference between Haiji and me
I smiled wryly.
I’m not talented nor smart like Haiji
Haiji looked at me.
That’s why I fell to despair. I can’t live alone, and so I stopped caring. I didn’t even care if I die. I thought that I had no future. I couldn’t think of what’s ahead that the image of my future was pitch black Far from a year, I couldn’t imagine what happens to me for the next month.
My father left me and disappeared.
I covered myself with a blanket in a pitch-black room. It was cold, scary, pitiful. Yeah, I felt pitiful instead of sad. How cold? I can’t feel anything but my temperature. All I did was wait for the morning. I’m scared of the dark after all I was alone in that house.
I’m scared of going to the toilet at night and so it became a habit to go while it’s still bright.
Me too. I was like that too!
Haiji speaks somewhat excitedly.
I was scared because I’m alone. It’s cold. I felt pitiful, that’s why I.
She put on an aloof and brave front, and make contact with other people that way.
But it’s different now. I have my family. People who will live together with me. People who will protect me. People I can trust. And people I want to keep safe
I want to protect my family from the evil of this world.
Not just receiving protection but giving it as well. If it’s just me then I wouldn’t care about I have to keep my precious family safe. And for that reason.
I clenched my fist.
That’s why I will use all kinds of powers, no matter how unlawful it is, to keep my family safe. Without any power, evil will destroy us right away. That’s the world we live in
I’ve prepared myself for this.
In short. Haiji, humans can’t live alone. No matter how strong you are, you can’t live alone. You will need to have someone with you, someone who will protect you, and someone you’ll protect. Else, everything is in vain Haiji who pushed herself to the limits will collapse sometime.
In fact, Haiji failed from leaving as Torii-san’s bodyguard and step up as a bodyguard of a better nobility.
She’s about to start a referral business of Academy graduates but Shou-neechan shut it down.
No matter how resourceful Haiji is, she can’t win against adults.
Furthermore, Shou-neechan’s a first-class bodyguard.
Her beauty, physical ability, her knowledge from the Academy in Europe, her status as Jii-chan’s personal bodyguard, plus her achievements and connections with the leaders in each circle.
No matter how much Haiji, a chick, fights her, she will never win.
Besides.
Shou-neechan also changed after joining our family.
Back then, she has that harsh personality, but.
Now she’s calmer. She has plenty of composure.
It’s because she found a family she wants to keep safe.
I want to protect Haiji too. I know that I’m weak and stupid, but still, I want to do what I can for Haiji
I look straight at Haiji.
Therefore. Haiji, please keep us safe too. Help us. Protecting, helping each other. That’s what family means
Yes, I know, mein Schatz1 I want to be your family, please make me
Haiji stands from the bed and comes before me.
I think that this family system is wonderful. Tying up a sexual relationship with you, pledging to bear your child, and forming a family with you as center
Oh, Haiji’s told that Torii Mariko-san’s watching from a different room.
She’s inviting Torii-san.
You will never betray your family. You’re that kind of man. That is why you are the keystone of the family. And, we will never betray you either. Therefore, this family creates a strong bond of Me to you, and You, to me Haiji said.
Joining in your family means vowing to have sex with nobody but you. That’s all. The people we protect and the people who protect us live together
I now get why Edie wants Haiji to join our family as soon as possible.
This girl is under pressure and insecurity that she has to live alone, but.
If we fix that distortion, she’s a splendid girl.
Her true nature is an honest and insightful girl.
For me who can’t consider ordinary romance nor marriage, this is the best path to take
Then, she speaks to me.
So, please, make me yours
I.
Haiji
I embraced her body.
Earlier, she just had her proof of virginity photographed.
Thus, she’s naked under her bathrobe.
Ah
Her mind is mature but her body is still young.
She’s small, thin, and soft.
Schatz. Ahn, I feel weak when you embrace me like that
That’s good. It means you’re leaning on me
Yes
Haiji loosens up in my arms.
Let’s kiss
O-Okay, please do
Haiji’s body stiffens once again.
I bring my lips closer to Haiji’s face.
Then, we kissed softly.
!
Oh, Haiji’s getting nervous. Her lips fill with pressure.
I coil my arms around Haiji’s back and embrace her tightly while kissing.
Ten seconds. Twenty.
Yeah.
Feeling my tight embrace.
Haiji’s body loosens up its tension.
