Chapter 258 : The talent of love

Ilet me think for a while longer

Seki-san answers.

Or rathersince I knew the secrets of Kouzuki family, I can no longer slip out!

Seki-san looks up atKakka

Thats obvious. Dont think that Im someone who overlooks information leak!

The current owner of Kouzuki house stares at her with stern eyes.

As expectedof course it is

Seki-san makes a boo-hoo face

Thenwhat would you do, Seki-san?

Misuzu asked calmly.,

NoUhmfor now, Ill become an ally. Of course, I also know that this is a good idea to become an ally of Kouzuki-sama, Misuzu-sama, and Ruriko-sama

She answers limply.

Oh, Im gladI was worried what I should do if Seki-san speaks absurdity like she doesnt understand!

Reika who entered thefamilyfirst grins.

Seki-san glares back at Reika

ButI dont want to decide my life easily like Fujimiya-san!Thatfamilylooks like its a serious thing

Umu, I understand your feelings

Kakkaanswers

Well, yeah.

Reikas changing her decision promptly.

Well, Reikas personality is honest so its like this but

An ordinary woman would worry about it a lot.

Besides

Seki-san stares at me.

Doinga reproductive actwith this onegetting pregnant with his child

Seki-san blushes looking at me.

Got itthen for the time being, Seki-san will become an ally of ourfamily The matter of entering thefamilywill be put on hold

Seki-san feels relieved.

Since youre now anally, youll be paid more than what you had beforewell also guarantee your future position as well. Grandfather, is that good?

Misuzu confirms it with her grandfather.

YesI dont mind. Seki-san is no longer my vassalbut an ally that has the same goal. In exchangewe will take care of your life

If shes just a vassal or an employeeeven if the lord changes, her status and position will be guaranteed.

Kakkaand Misuzu will be breaking the power struggle in Kouzuki family, even if someone takes over the controlas long as shes a vassal, Seki-sans position wont shake.

Butnow that shes an ally, even ifKakkais overthrown and Misuzu expelled from the houseSeki-san will also share the same fate.

On the contrary

If she stays a vassal, Even if Misuzu takes full control of the authority to Kouzuki family, she cant hope for a promotion

If she becomes an allythen shell be involved in the as an existence close to Misuzu.

I am preparedI will entrust my life on it!

Seki-san answers with a dignified face

But

Seki-san is really a diligent one

I speak out my impressions unintentionally.

What? Mediligent?

Seki-sans making a blank face.

A truly diligent oneher diligence is like an iron wall

Kakkatells me

UhmI do think that its normal though?

Seki-san seems to be unconvinced that shesdiligent

No, wellSeki-san thinks seriously, saying that youll be anallyfor the time being, you put the thought of entering thefamilyon hold, didnt you?

I asked.

YesI think thats an ordinary general judgement

Sending a glance towards Reika

Im not someone cheap like Fujimiya-san!

No

You see

Seki-sanI dont think that your judgement is common but

What?

Seki-san shows a surprised face.

Well, lookin this situation, you can just promise thatIll become an ally, Ill join the family tooand depending on the situation afterwards, you can change your future course, right?

When Mana was still Maika, she was like that.

Though she behaves and speaks like our allyshe was actually considering of escaping from us.

Ive got an experience with Maika at that time so I can tell.

Theres no way I would do such a cowardly behavior!

Seki-san speaks angrily.

Nobut you see, normal people will. Everyones scared of Kouzuki-san after all. Normal people would have thought of just becoming anallyand entering thefamilyjust to please Kouzuki-san and then watch over the situation

Fufufufuunwell you see, its a bit different!

Nagisa interrupts the conversation.

What you said just now is about a person in a specific group confident in his ability thus creating cunning behavior. Those kind of people are afraid to offend Shige-chan so theyll just say yes to everything. Only words yet no actions. Theres always that one or two troublemaker in a group. But, thats not a lot of people!

Nagisa smiles at me.

Most people who belong to a group like a company are not confident at themselves, a virtuous person Thats why, even if someone in a position like Shige-chan saysbe our ally, join our familyalmost all of them will decline

Decline?

I cant do itor I dont have the talentorI cant bear the responsibilityYou seebecoming Shige-chansallyis too frightening for normal people

Whats frightening?

Misuzu asks

If youre in a standpoint being used by someone, you only have to fulfil the jobs and responsibility ordered. Then, you get paid and can support your family. Thats enough for them. Of courseeveryone wants to succeed in their career. Butbeing involved in the huge power struggle in a huge family like Kouzuki house, instead of a success in career Theres not a lot of people who would want to bother with such hardships!

I see

Is that how it is?

I myself dont know any other group but theschoolso I dont understand it well

For normal people, becoming anallyofKakkais too heavy of a burden. Much more, if asked to join thefamily, theyd faint

Nagisa smiles.

Or ratherthey cant imagine themselves in it!

Cant imagine?

Do you know? Humans definitely imagine themselves behaving that way before they do something. Unless a concrete images comes uppeople cant act on their own will

Un

I dont get it.

Most peoplecant imagine themselves in that even if Shige-chan tells them toJoin in the family They cant imagineso they cant act. Even if its an outrageously big chancethey will decline

Thats the reaction of normal people

ThenNagisa-sama, what do you think of Seki-sans judgement?

Misuzu asks

Right. Seki-sanwhat kind of type of person is she?

Seki-san is an extraordinary rare case. Shes a person confident in herself and is also a good natured one!

G-Good natured? Me?

The person talked about speaks in stuttered voice.

Thats rightthats why you are seriously troubled at the thought of joining in ourfamily!

Not answering immediatelyeven if it displeasesKakkaher confidences comes as its not a problem of her own values changing.

Andshes seriously troubled

I see, Seki-san right now is

Theres a possibility of her joining in ourfamily

How many percent it is, its unknown but

She can imagine herself joining ourfamily

Thats why shes seriously worried.

Not making fun or trying to lie in this situationseriously worrying about it, I dont think that a person like that is not a good person

Nagisa said.

Seki-sans mouth is wide open.

It must be her first time being evaluated as such

Rather than thatI think

Reika-san looks at Seki-san

Seki-sans probably a heavy woman

Seki-sans expression changed radically

Im not that heavy!

Its notIm not talking about the weight

Reika speaks in a low voice.

Seki-sanif a guy invites you for a tea, do you thinkthis person likes me?

What?

Just walking around the corridor with a manyoud thinkWhat happens if this becomes a rumor

Ugu

Ahshe has memories of it

Ahyoure the type that sees everything as a fuse of love

Nagisa agrees.

After you were chosen as the personal guardyou were sticky with Choumoto-san for a while

Reika looks at Seki-san.

Trying to match the color of the clothesordering the same menu on the employee cafeteria, trying to match the departure time from office

Why do you know that!

Theres no one in the company I dont know

Ugugugugu!

Hmmm, so she has a crush on a colleague

Nagisa makes fun of her.

BecauseI never thought that hes gay!

Seki-san beats the desk

Its different from usual! That was the the first time I hit on a homo!

Usual? But, Seki-sanyou never had a relationship with a man, have you?

Misuzu asks

Thats right, never! Nobody ever comes close to me! Thats why Im the one whos making the effort to approach butwhen I do that, men try to move away further than myself!

Effort to approach

Matching the color of clothingasking for the same menu

Thats hard to understand.

Alsoits just a behavior youd find hard to react once you know it

I seeSeki-sans a damsel in love. Inside her head

Reika said.

Seki-sans surprisingly a romanticist.

And yet, no men approaches her

Shes making an incomprehensible appeal.

Then, the men pulls away.

Yeahshes certainly a heavy woman

I understand why shes a virgin at this age.

Whaaat!? I dont want to be told by you! Arent you a virgin as well!

Seki-sans angry at Reika.

That is because I never had interest in that kind of thing

Reika laughs

BesidesI will be experiencing it soon

Reika looks at me.

Shes already decided to have sex and bear my child.

Reikas too good at making decisions

But

Wait, stop!

I tell Reika.

Reika, youre already myfamilythat wont change but. Ill put it on hold whether youll have sex with me or not

Why is that? Lord?!

Reika shows a surprised face

ReikaSeki-san as well, you havent experienced a proper love relationship yet

I answer.

Its not good to have only sex even though you havent experienced love yet

Idont mind

Reika says.

Ive already sworn to give my body to my lord!

Hmm

I compare Reika and Seki-san.

Reikas too good at making decisions

Reika-sans thinking too much

Both of them have extreme characters.

Butboth of them became adult women without knowig love.

Reika, I feel happy on your feelings, I respect itbut, try to watch over for a bit

Lord

I understand well that what Reika needs now is afamily Thats why, concentrate on blending with thefamilyand lets postpone sex for later

What Reika seeks now isfamily love

Lets first fill that up.

Lets have my fill later.

But, I

Ive got some people I regret having sex without any love

Yukino

My relationship with Yukino has gotten messed up

It was because of the first rape.

I was desperateIve violated Yukino because of my carnal desires not because of love.

Our relationship has stumbled from the beginning

I shouldnt do that again.

Ill like Reika morethats why, Reika should look at various parts of me. Thenwhen our hearts fit properly, we embrace each other at that time. Not forcibly but naturally

I said

If that is Lords ordersthen Ill obey it

Reika answers

Hmm

Thats not it.

EarlierReika-san have heard only my and Danna-samas voice during our sex, havent you?

Misuzu asks Reika

Yes

Thenwatch Danna-sama and I have sex. Its better to watch a sex of love in close proximity

Yeah, shes right

That might be right.

Misuzu! Its unfair that its only you! Im the next one you know1

Nagisa speaks huffily.

Err

Ill be squeezed dry if this continues.

No, lets meet thefamilyfor now. Lets have her watch sex later

I said.

I havent seen Minaho-neesan and co for a while

Anyway, Reika should get in touch with thefamilyas soon as possible.

Seki-san tooI think shell get along with Katsuko-nee and Margo-san than these people

But

Kouzuki-san

I turn toKakka

Of course you do know that Reika and Seki-san are like this?

Old man Kouzuki laughs.

Now thenI wonder what you mean by that?

Kakkahave thoroughly isolated Ruriko and Yoshiko-san from men.

Shes doe something similar to Misuzu.

With Misuzu and Ruriko being on such a policythe two of these who have no experience in romance is no coincidence.

Of coursethis isKakkasintervention

These two having no romantic experienceand yet owning such a good personality Thus, you made them guards of Misuzu and Ruriko, havent you?

Kakka

Thats not all. Both of them are outstanding. Theyre even the top of Kouzuki security service. Their body and skill are outstanding. Mentally, theyre still immature butI want you to tolerate that as theres still room for development. Well, theres some promise as theyre elite, their character is too good and too serious butMinaho-kun can control that point very well

Saying that, the old man laughs

Either wayourfamilyneeds more peoplewhat do you think?

I

I think so too. Kouzuki-sans eyes for people is right

Right.

Reika and Seki-san have been certified byKakkafrom the start.

If not, they cant make contact with his treasured granddaughters.

Theres no way theyre people with dirty hearts

Their love experience deficiency is a small problem though.

Now thenits about time we see Minaho-kuns face? Im sure shell be surprised

Kakka speaks like a naughty boy

We dressed up in a hurry

All of us left the room.

Ahead, Reika and Seki-san.

Misuzu and I follows.

Ruriko and Yoshiko-san

Nagisa and Mao-chan are withKakka

Michis defending the back.

Once again, we changed elevators multiple times.

We go up and down repeatedly on different elevators

We get off the 27th floor.

This is usually a wedding hall

Kakkatells everyone

Minaho-kun and co. are waiting in here. Weve prepared meals so you should eat as well

That helpsspeaking of which, Im a bit hungry

But

Theres no guard wearing Kouzuki security service uniform at all

The 20th to 30th floor is all reserved by me today. I am somewhere on those floors. Yamaokas subordinates arent allowed to enter here

Kakkaexplained as he guessed what Im thinking.

The enemy wearing a job uniform cant go up to my private area!

So thats the reason.

UhmOotoku-san and Choumoto-san?

Seki-san asksKakka

Theyll come right away once I call them. For now, its my time to enjoy with my wonderful granddaughters. I dont want to see the face of those two right now

Welltheyre gay after all.

Its thereBetween the heron Open up the door

Reika and Seki-san opens the door.

Then

Nei-sans the only one in the middle of the wide wedding hall

I cant see anyone else

Hm? What what, whats wrong?

Nei-san turned to us and speaks with a charming face

This is Margo-sans usual strat.

Nei-sans a decoy

And shell aim for the chance of break out

Shit!

Margo-san, its us. Its okay! Theres no problem!!!

I shout loudly.

Yoshi-kun!

Onii-chan!

Megu and Mana shows up under the round table near the door we entered in.

The negotiation with Kouzuki-san went well. Its all okay!!!!!

Really, its not a lie! Grandfather has accepted me and Danna-sama!

Misuzu shouts as well.

Minaho-santheres really no problem

When Nagisa calls them outthe others finally show up

Everyones hiding themselves behind desks and platforms

Katsuko-neeMinaho-neesanYukino too

Margo-san

Shes on top.

She shows herself in between the iron pipes hanging the lights.

Using a rope, she comes down.

Everyones gathered it seems

Minaho-neesan looks at me, Misuzu, Nagisa and Mao-chan, and shows a relived look.

UmuI brought it properly

Kakkalooks at Minaho-neesan with a smile

Thank you very muchKouzuki-sama

Minaho-neesan bows respectfully

Nei-san and others are still showing an uneasy face.

They dont know the results of our negotiation withKakka

Thenwhat happened?

Minaho-neesan asks Kakka.

Ive heard that you have given him and Misuzu san your permission!

Umuactually, on that regard

Kakkaspeaks pompously

Ive got some things Ive got to ask you

Minaho-neesan gasps.

This will have a very serious influence in the future of Kouzuki house and you as well!

What do you need?

Minaho-neesan asks with a serious face.

Yeslisten very closely!

The head of Kouzuki houseKouzuki Shigetaka speaks.

Call meOjii-chan!
