In the group called Kuromori family, their morals differ from the modern-day Japan morals. However, there are no contradictions in their morals. Kou’s the center, and he forms the clear model

So it seems

Momoko-neechan accepts.

I support these morals. And, I swear to obey the morals of the Kuromori house

Mariko smiles.

But, we’re in Japan!

Momoko-neechan speaks in confusion.

If you are in Japan, shouldn’t you follow Japan’s morals? In Japan, polygamy is illegal!

No, bigamy is illegal, not polygamy

Misuzu replies.

You can marry only one person legally but if it’s just marriage, you can go with as many as you want

Legally speaking yes, but morally speaking, that’s not allowed!

However, our family is a closed one. It’s not like anyone can join in the family either. Besides, those who live in that family are all happy

But it’s not allowed

It’s a secret from the public, and nobody will know

Misuzu said. Momoko-neechan;

But I know about it

She speaks in a low tone

Then, Kaan-sama, would you let the public know about it?

Mariko asks.

Momoko-neechan realized and sighed.

No, I won’t. Nobody will believe even if I talk about it, and it’s a problem if Kaan and Kouzuki house started fighting because of that

Then.

Besides, I know it even if you don’t tell me, Mariko. You girls, Misuzu, Ruriko, and the other girls, you show no hesitation. You girls have your own morals. Kou-chan is the keystone, and you girls don’t break the group Well yeah

Nei smiled.

Everyone in the family has to keep the group safe and so we do feel tense, and we get along. Girls who lived in very different environments help each other and sometimes throw their real thoughts at each other. There’s no hierarchical relationship when it comes to Yo-chan. Daughter of nobility? Daughter of a criminal? They’re all irrelevant. If you don’t show your true intent then Yo-chan will scold you. Yo-chan is sharp when it comes to that. You can’t lie either. You have to do your best to be with the family That’s right, that’s why everyone is family.

We’re greedy

Ruriko smiles.

Just as much as we want to monopolize Onii-sama, we also want to make this family our own

And to make everyone happy

Misuzu said.

Momoko-oneesama, why do you want to make Mariko-san your little sister?

Misuzu asks suddenly.

That’s because she’s a unique girl, a little impudent, but never timid, and she could speak her opinion to me without worry. I liked that about her

Momoko-neechan looked at Mariko.

But, Mariko’s no longer my little sister. Kou-chan took her away

I.

Not really. I didn’t take her away. Besides, Mariko is still Mariko

I looked at Mariko.

Mariko, you still like Momoko-neechan even now, don’t you?

Momoko-neechan looked at Mariko in surprise.

Yes. I like that Kaan-sama always shows arrogance and a bossy attitude. Even now I still like it

She speaks sullenly.

This is a place where you shouldn’t hide your true feelings so I’ll confess, I still like you

Mariko

Momoko-neechan’s surprised.

In the end, when you stand as the daughter of nobility, you can’t talk about your true emotions. Ruriko and I have been like that

Misuzu said.

Your vassals are close to you but they’re still a bit different. Back when Michi and I were just master and servant, we couldn’t talk about our real feelings

But now, we can talk about anything. It’s because we’re family. All of the big sisters listen to my worries and give me earnest advice

Hearing Ruriko says that Yoshiko-san’s expression clouded up.

And that’s why I’ve been waiting for Yoshiko-oneesama to talk to us all this time

Ruriko smiled at Yoshiko-san.

Ruriko-sama.

Okay. That’s for the conversation later

Yes, I think that it’ll be easier to talk about Yoshiko-oneesama’s case once Danna-sama returns home

Just us girls

Ruriko and Misuzu tell Yoshiko-san.

Now then, Momoko-oneesama, don’t you want someone to talk your true feelings like this too?

Misuzu asks. Momoko-neechan.

i have Sebastianus with me!

She speaks standoffishly.

I don’t really care. I don’t need to talk my true feelings with you

Then.

But, Kaan-sama, the other day, I.

Mariko smiles.

When we were drinking tea in the hotel’s coffee room the other day, weren’t we talking about Julius Caesar?

Caesar? Yes, we were. The topic came up because of Caesar salad

Momoko-neechan replies.

At that time, Kaan-sama thought that Julius was the name and Caesar was the family name, but.

Was I wrong?

Then.

His full name is Gaius Julius Caesar, which means Gaius-kun from the Julius house of the Caesar Clan Meaning, his name is Gaius

Edie who knows a lot replied.

I actually knew the truth but thinking that I shouldn’t put Kaan-sama to shame, I kept quiet about it

Mariko said.

Oh? What about it?

Momoko-neechan speaks standoffishly.

Sebastianusan knows about it too, right? Your complexion changed while Kaan-sama was talking about it

i.

Yamada Umeko-san panics.

And you haven’t told Kaan-sama that she was wrong after the tea party, have you?

She left Momoko-neechan’s misunderstanding as-is.

that’s because I thought that someone like me shouldn’t point out those things

Why didn’t you tell me? I had a talk with a Rome history college teacher after that. I was lucky that we didn’t talk about Caesar but if I talked about that with such a triumphant look, I would’ve been put to such shame i’m very sorry

Yamada-san bows her head.

She can’t say it. She’s just a vassal after all

Mariko smiled.

Even I couldn’t tell you about it because the place says that one couldn’t talk about their true feelings. In my case, I was Kaan-sama’s little sister, but I still couldn’t say it. Can’t tell the young lady of the Kaan house That’s because of Mariko’s insecurity towards the nobility.

Ruriko and I find comfort in each other. We can tell each other anything. If we’ve done something wrong, it’s pointed out, and we’re scolded

Scolded, who would scold the daughter of Kouzuki house?

Hmm, I’ve already scolded them before, besides the other big sisters did too

Nei smiled.

They scold us for our sakes. We’re thankful to them

Ruriko said.

See, Kaan-sama. You seem to become gradually envious of us

Mariko smiled.

I already said that I won’t join you! I am Kaan Momoko! I am the daughter of the Kaan house! I have my obligation to fulfill!

But, are you sure about that? Keeping your virginity until you marry the man your family chose for you? Meanwhile, your partner played with various women until he marries you

Mariko stirs her up, but.

but, I.

Kaan-sama, don’t you want to experience sex too?

Then.

Okay. That’s as far as that conversation goes

Rei-chan stopped it.

Even if you keep it pushing like that, he’s at his limit already

She looked at me.

It’s okay, Yo-chan. Good job at keeping up. You’re sleepy, aren’t you? It’s okay to go to sleep

No, my body feels heavy, but.

But you see, I want Mariko and Momoko-neechan to get back to being friends

I speak my true feelings.

And for Misuzu and Ruriko to get along with the other family too

Kou-chan?

Oh right, I don’t think of anything overambitious like making Momoko-neechan my woman
