Chapter 1417. Next Mission / Common Ground

「 That’s the reason why I want my children to be born from love, blessed by their parents, so they never become like us 」

Dolly and Anna trembled from my voice.

The other girl assassins were so surprised that they stopped eating ice cream and looked at us.

「 I’m not allowing you to get pregnant unless you’re ready to raise the child with love. Understood? 」

I said, then ended the conversation.

Dolly and Anna need some time to calm down and think.

The other girl assassins too.

Anya told them to return so Dolly and Anna went back to their seats.

「 Err.. 」

I noticed the Matsumoto siblings and Igarashi Izumi’s giving me a surprised look.

Hmm, how do I explain this?

To normal girls, the conversation of wanting to get pregnant and not allowing them to get pregnant with girls whose language is different is confusing.

「 Well, it’s that kind of world 」

Mariko said with a smile.

「 With that said, Kou’s still young, but he’s already shouldering the lives of the girls here, and this isn’t everyone, there are many more 」

Currently, the girls at our high school haven’t returned home yet.

Some girls haven’t shown up yet.

It’s either they’re not back at the mansion yet, or they’re working on something else in a different room.

「 Me too. I’m letting Kou take care of my life 」

Mariko tells the Matsumoto siblings with a smile.

「 Erica and Marika-oneesama too 」

Erica said. Marika nodded with a smile.

「 So two more new people won’t bother Yo-chan at all 」

Nei said, returning to our table.

「 While at it, why not take in that girl too? Ushishi 」

Nei looked at Igarashi Izumi and said.

Then, she tells me;

「 Sensei said that it’s time to get ready and go 」

A message from Minaho-neesan?

If she does the usual where she sends the message through the speaker on the walls, Matsumoto-san would find it weird, so she let Nei convey the message.

Later tonight, I’ll have to face the grandfather of the Matsumoto siblings at the hotel in front of the station.

It’s to let the Matsumoto siblings continue playing music.

Depending on the situation, we’ll use the Miko power to bend the will of their grandfather.

「 Right. I can’t look like this 」

I’m still wearing my school uniform,

I worked in the bakery the whole day so I sweat a lot.

Then, I haven’t showered after having sex earlier.

If I want to face an old manager of a drugstore chain, then I have to be well dressed.

「 The change is already in the bathroom 」

「 Okay, I’ll wash off my sweat and change 」

I eat the remaining ice cream on my plate and stood up.

「 Meanwhile, Matsumoto-san will have a light meal. Ruri-chan’s making one of them. We’ll eat our meal later today, so those who are going out won’t make it 」

I guess the whole family was going to have dinner together after the girls at school got home.

But since I’m about to leave, we don’t have time to eat with everyone.

We have a scheduled meeting with Matsumoto-san’s grandfather.

「 Uhm..I’m.. 」

「 Me too..that.. 」

historical

But, the Matsumoto siblings..

「 Too nervous that you can’t swallow your food? That’s not the case, right, you just ate ice cream 」

Nei laughs.

「 Anyway, you should fill your stomach even just a bit. That’ll give you some energy. They’re making something easy to eat and digest so don’t worry about it 」

「 Yes. You should eat first 」

Mariko followed up.

「 I’ll help out 」

Erica stood up.

「 I also asked to make Izumi-san’s share 」

Igarashi Izumi’s an uninvited guest in this situation.

The only people Marika brought here to consult with me were the Matsumoto sisters.

Igarashi Izumi who came here without permission isn’t welcomed.

But if we’re cold to her, the Matsumoto siblings will be uneasy, so for now, she gets ice cream and snacks.

「 Yo-chan, you should talk with Tsukiko-chan before going to bath 」

Tsukiko?

Oh, she’s waiting for me at the entrance, a little away from everyone.

I’m going to ask Tsukiko, with her Miko power, to go with us to the hotel later.

Is there something she wants to tell me?

「 Got it, thanks. Excuse me 」

I tell the Matsumoto siblings and went to Tsukiko.

「 Need something? 」

I asked. Tsukiko;

「 Luna will go for tonight. I’ll stay here 」

Huh?

「 No, that’s dangerous. Depending on the outcome of the negotiations, we might need the Miko power on the other party. If that’s the case.. 」

Tsukiko’s the one most stable using her power.

Manipulating someone’s mind and memory requires subtle adjustment.

I think Yomi or Luna will find it hard to do such details.

There’s the danger of getting pulled into the mind of the person they’re manipulating and breaking them.

「 Kou-sama has nothing to worry about 」

Tsukiko read my thoughts and replied.

「 I’ve seen the hearts of Matsumoto-sama, and their problem with their grandfather isn’t as serious as Kou-sama seems to think 」

No, but still.

After their father died of illness, the siblings were forced by their grandfather to stop their music studies.

Even going as far as telling Maki-san to drop out of the same school Marika is in.

Miki-san’s threatened to sell off the violin her father bought for her.

「 Even so, it’s a trivial family problem 」

Tsukiko smiles.

「 I’m sure that it will be resolved when discussed properly 」

Really?

「 Kou-sama’s environment is special, so you don’t believe in the idea of affection between relatives 」

I never trusted my Father, Mother, or any of my relatives.

I don’t remember receiving any affection from those people.

「 That’s why you’re overthinking this 」

That’s..

「 The other party will be less cautious with Luna, who’s younger than me, and Luna’s power is enough to guide Matsumoto-sama’s grandfather to an honest discussion 」

Minaho-neesan;

That’s why she asked Nei and Luna to come with me back to the mansion.

I guess Nei’s needed because she could help resolve the situation at the mansion, which was tense because of Clito.

Then, Luna..

Tsukiko already discussed the matter of dispatching Luna instead of herself to Minaho-neesan.

Then, Minaho-neesan gave her approval to Tsukiko’s suggestion, and so she told me to bring Luna back.

That means that I no longer had the say in this matter.

Minaho-neesan already decided so I will follow.

「 Okay, I’ll take Luna 」

I said, looked at Luna, and she came to me right away.

Luna’s already told about it.

Also.

「 Hey, Anju-chan, you should go 」

Nei sends Kurose Anju to me.

She’s my personal bodyguard so she will come with me later.

「 Yeah, let’s go 」

I took Luna and Kurose Anju to the bathroom.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

「 We’ve been waiting, Danna-sama 」

Entering the mansion’s dressing room to the bathroom.

Misuzu’s waiting.

Michi, Karen, and Motoko as well.

They’re all wearing a matching thin undershirts, waiting for me.

The cloth is thin so their bodies and even nipples are see-through.

「 You’re back 」

Misuzu and Michi were staying in the Kouzuki mansion with Yoshiko-san today.

Kyouko-san brought thirteen girl assassins, so the Kouzuki bloodline girls were staying there until it was confirmed that the girls are harmless.

Only Ruriko remained in the mansion because she prioritizes being my sex slave over being a daughter of the Kouzuki house.

It shows the determination and pride of Ruriko, the number two housewife of the mansion.

Yoshiko-san’s in the kitchen, so I knew that they were already back

「 Danna-sama!! 」

Misuzu approached me with a smile and hugged me.

「 I’m lonely, we haven’t seen each other for so long 」

I also embraced Misuzu’s soft body.

Yeah, we didn’t meet for two days.

But it feels like it’s been years.

「 Me too, Misuzu 」

This warmth, this smell, I’m sure.

「 Michi’s here too 」

Misuzu’s bodyguard, Michi, speaks to me with her usual blank expression.

She’s petite and beautiful as a doll, strong and smart just like Edie.

She’s one of our child prodigies.

「 I know, come here 」

「 Yes 」

Michi hugs my legs from behind.

I’m hugging Misuzu from the front, but Michi’s a girl who likes to cling to my legs.

When sleeping together, she always sleeps while hugging my legs.

「 It smells like master 」

Michi said and rubbed her cheeks on my legs.

Michi, stop sniffing on my crotch.

「 Karen’s also here, do we have anything with the Mizushima house? 」

Karen’s apparently bullied at school by her cousin from the branch family because of her family’s decline.

Last night, I received that report.

I also promised Misuzu earlier this morning on the phone that we’d discuss the details once she returns.

「 Yes, we can’t talk about it in the dining room 」

The Matsumoto siblings were there so we can’t talk about the nobility there.

「 What about Motoko? 」

I looked at Motoko.

Motoko’s a young lady of the Kuromiya house, and she’s a student and she’s known Misuzu for a long time, but..

I hardly see these two that close in the mansion.

Karen of the Misuzhima house is close to the Kouzuki house, but the Kuromiya house has no such connection.

So, why is she here?

「 I’m here for another case, I’m here to report about the Ishigami house 」

Ishigami house.

Yesterday, during the first day of the school festival. The Ishigami siblings came to our school after getting tricked by some of the bad guys.

As punishment for causing all kinds of trouble, the brother is used as training material for the prostitute cadets to practice perverted plays by Iwakura-san.

Then, the sister, Ishigami Mizuki lost her virginity to me.

「 The Ishigami house has formally sent their apologies through our home, Kuromiya house, to the Kouzuki house 」

Kuromiya house is close to the Ishigami house.

On the other hand, the Ishigami house isn’t close to the Kouzuki house.

They had no route to send their apologies directly to the Kouzuki house so they had to go through the Kuromiya house.

The nobility knows that Motoko’s at our place officially as under Kouzuki house’s custody.

Besides, the Ishigami siblings came to our place to force Motoko to return to her home.

「 Shou-oneesama already sent a detailed report of the incident to the Ishigami house. Naturally, she only wrote what’s necessary 」

Michi says while clinging to my leg.

The Kouzuki SS report had omitted the Kouzuki house’s rebel units, the police that Shou-neechan encountered, and the rest got reported to the Ishigami house.

Seki Shou, Jii-chan’s personal bodyguard, and now the on-site manager of the Kouzuki SS has a lot of credibilities.

「 Ishigami Norio-san was tempted by some bad people, and did something that caused trouble to Dono, Misuzu-sama’s partner 」

Motoko said.

「 Ishigami house had no choice but to apologize to the Kouzuki house, the family that unites the nobility for the misconduct of their heir 」

The Ishigami siblings were already assaulted as compensation, but..

Do they also have to pay separate compensation between the Ishigami house and Kouzuki house?

We can’t leave the problem to the Kouzuki house, one of the big three houses together with the Kaan and Kanou house.

It could affect the relationships with the other families.

「 They want to offer a banquet to offer their apologies to Misuzu-sama and Dono directly 」

「 Banquet? 」

「 It means renting a hotel, restaurant, or Ryotei for visits 」

Misuzu in my arms whispers to my ear.

I see.

But, is that their objective.

「 Ishigami house might just use that meeting to tell us to get Motoko back to her house? 」

I look at Misuzu.

「 Yes, I think so too 」

Misuzu agreed.

「 They might bring someone from my house during the apology 」

Motoko says with a worried look.

「 Ishigami house will provide the accommodation so even if the Kuromiya house is invited, we can’t refuse 」

「 So they’re contacting us through the Kuromiya house 」

Misuzu said. I muttered.

The Kuromiya house asked the Kouzuki house to mediate for them, so it won’t be strange that someone from the Kuromiya house should be present during their apology.

「 But since this is a relationship between nobilities, we have to accept their formal apology 」

Misuzu said.

Kouzuki house has to accept the apologies prepared by the Ishigami house.

That means that Misuzu and I have to be there.

「 Should I go too? 」

Motoko says, but her expression is clouded.

「 I think that’s one way, but we should talk to Minaho-neesan and Shou-neechan first. We’re not close to them so there’s a lot to discuss beforehand 」

Like, how many bodyguards should we bring?

In the first place, there’s the problem of whether or not it’s acceptable to agree on the venue of the meeting designated by the other party.

「 Anyway, we’ll have to let Shou-neechan deal with the details 」

Shou-neechan can fine-tune it for sure.

「 Although, it would be great if we can make contact with the Ishigami house 」

Motoko?

「 Dono, do you remember Agnes-san saying that she wants a girl to join the family? 」

「 Yeah, it’s Kerama Leona-san, right? 」

A classmate of Agnes in the school for the young ladies.

I hear that she’s beautiful.

But, the Kerama house isn’t connected to the Kouzuki house.

We’re looking for a way to contact her.

「 If I recall correctly, she’s the daughter of the founding family of the brewing company, and that Kouzuki house doesn’t drink their beverage 」

I heard from Nagisa that company groups decide the beer maker they drink.

And that Kouzuki house’s controlled businesses don’t drink beverages from the Kerama house. So there’s no connection between them.

「 Yes, Kouzuki house has no business with the Kerama brewery, but.. 」

Misuzu said.

「 Ishigami house and Kerama brewery have a long and deep relationship 」

Then that means.

We can make contact with the Kerama house through the Ishigami house?
