Anyway, I can’t make a move until tomorrow’s stuff is over
We still have the school festival.
But in exchange, we’ve got a holiday on Monday, so we can make time.
We’re taking a break from school so we don’t have to make pastry for the next day too.
Also, those girls are still here
I look at the thirteen former assassins eating their dinner.
It’s interesting to see how everyone chose a different dish
Ruriko looked at the foreign girls and said.
True, it’s a buffet-style where you can pick and choose a variety of dishes, so it gives you an idea of their personality.
For example, Dolly asks Edie about each dish and eats only what suits her palate.
Anna sticks to her sister and listens to the conversation with Edie. Although she picks her meals.
She doesn’t talk to Edie.
As for the others, Penny Su, and a few girls decided to try out all the food for now it seems.
On the other hand, Anne Roze picked one meal based on appearance and ate only that.
Ososo only eats whatever Anya recommends to her.
Acme Iku meanwhile seems to be picking the unpopular choices.
Some never leave Edie, Anya, or Erica’s side, their language guides.
Some of the former girl assassins are sticking together.
Then some act alone, it’s all scattered.
It shows the personalities of the thirteen girls.
This is a good reference, Yo-chan
Nei came over and told me.
That’s right, what we observe from them is just a reference to understanding those girls.
You can’t figure out a person in just a short time, and relationships change quickly.
At least, there’s some point that you can understand.
As expected, Dolly’s probably the leader of the thirteen, but.
They also have factions.
Penny Su and Va Geena, then Acme Iku seem to be getting along. The three of them are always together. Ososo and Chiyo, are sticking with Erica. Dolly and Anna, then Yin Ran and Yin Lin are going with Anya. Anne Roze and Kunni goes to Edie. Then, Olga and Clito Lilith go alone I see.
But, everyone’s eating just fine for now, right?
Their main choices are mostly poultry
Motoko came over and said.
If it’s cows or pigs, there might people who can’t eat it. Fishes too, seems like some of them can’t eat it
I see. You’ve thought that far.
Sushi’s available all over the world these days, but still, many people can’t eat raw fish
Yeah, in a Japanese sense, today’s a welcome party so if you make some sashimi platter or something, other girls might not eat it!
Nei said.
Chicken was a safe bet for the time being. I made a few other meat dishes as well
Yeah, those who eat all kinds of food without a problem are those without any food taboos.
Those who make careful choices have a lot of reason to do so.
I gave those girls an interview, but they don’t seem to be adhering to any particular religion
Shou-neechan said.
I guess it’s just simply the cultural difference among the girls. Maybe it’s the influence of the food of their mother cooked when they were a kid, or the food at the orphanage they lived after separating from their parents So they’re just avoiding the ones they’re not used to eating?
How about the food in the organization when they were living there?
Nei asks Shou-neechan.
Well, the boss in their syndicate is an odd one. Apparently, she feeds the girls the same menu for 365 days straight. Also, it’s hospital food, saying that they only need minimal nutritional value Huh, is that so?
It seems that their boss had no interest in food
Seems like the joy of eating has been robbed from those girls
Nei looked at the foreign girls.
The girls who are happily munching their food at least had an experience where they get food from when they lived with their mothers. As for those without experience.
Oh, I see. So that’s why Anne Roze eats the same food.
They don’t know what’s good to eat so they’re afraid.
Edie, tell Anne Roze to eat something else too. It’s not a balanced meal if she keeps eating the same meal. Tell her it’s an order
I told Edie.
Pick the things Anne Roze would eat, Edie
Since it’s Edie, I’m sure that she’s already guessed the cultural background of Anne Roze.
Got it, Darling,
Edie smiled and then passed the word to Anne Roze.
Anne Roze seems confused, but Edie points at several dishes and explained the ingredients used.
Then, Anne Roze tried out other dishes.
She timidly puts it in her mouth, then smiled.
Seems like she liked it.
Seeing what she’s doing, the other girls also tried out the same dish.
Then, they started a conversation.
Talking to their fellow foreigners, or even Edie and the translators, they talk about the cooking with a smile on their faces.
Edie points at Motoko and the girls.
She must be telling them that those girls cooked the meals.
And that’s how those girls will accept the kitchen crew, who weren’t in the bath earlier
Nei said.
You can’t help but love those who cook you a good meal
Right.
Motoko and Kurumi, Sakurako and Shie-san, Mariko and Haiji, and then Marika.
Edie’s introducing them to the foreigner girls one by one.
The atmosphere in the dining room becomes even more harmonious.
uhm
Kurose Anju calls me from behind.
Hm, what’s up?
She’s having a gloomy expression.
I feel like I’m just placed here before I know it, but.
Kurose-san says while looking downwards.
Kuromori-sama owns the Kouzuki SS, right? Then, the famous Seki-san is also here, and then Edie-san and everyone has much better skills as a bodyguard than me
It’s not just being about a bodyguard, those girls are just better fighters
Shou-neechan looked at Edie and Mitama and said.
I think so too. So, uhm
She looks at me with a serious eye.
Am I even needed in this mansion?
I replied right away.
Yes. That’s the reason why I took Anju from the Ishigami house
I speak as clearly as I can.
But, I.
Oh, you’re not confident in yourself, I see
Shou-neechan smiled wryly.
You don’t have to worry too much about that. Come here Haiji
I called Haiji
What is it?
Haiji comes over right away.
Haiji, you’ve been helping out in Nagisa’s flower shop for a while now.
I speak to Haiji.
By that, I mean, I want Haiji to learn about the other angles in this world by having varied experiences, but.
Haiji’s a professional bodyguard at a young age.
I think that’s amazing, but Haiji has a bad habit of looking at things only in one direction and making a decision out of that.
That’s why I had her help out in Nagisa’s shop and with the housework in the mansion.
I had her experience life apart from being a bodyguard.
Yes, I discovered a lot. Especially in dealing with Nagisa-sama’s customers, it was educational
Haiji changed by serving customers in a flower shop.
Haiji, you can continue your path in business if you want. To be honest, I think that Haiji’s got talent in there
Haiji tried to start a business trying to introduce the young ladies to some bodyguards from the academy she graduated from.
She’s got some commercial ambitions too.
Or, do you want to stick with your original intent and go down the path to becoming a professional bodyguard? You don’t have to decide right now, but do think about it Haiji looked into my eyes.
I think I still want to be a bodyguard
She replies.
I’m interested in business, but I want to live my life as a bodyguard that protects Kuromori-sama and the family
Haiji’s eyes show seriousness.
I finally found something that I want to protect for the rest of my life
I see
I looked at Shou-neechan.
Shou-neechan, can we give Haiji special training in Kouzuki SS?
