Chapter 1253. Afterglow / See You Next Time!

「 Well, I’ll be comforting my Grandfather who’s feeling down. Come with me, Mariko. You’re good at currying favor, right? 」

Momoko-neechan said smilingly.

「 Sebastianus. Try following up on Chris too 」

Oh yeah, Yamada Umeko-san’s brother, Yamada Taichi-san lost to Rei-chan.

「 Oh, don’t console him. Chris would feel that you’re putting salt on his wound. He’s the type who won’t make an effort until he’s like “Dammit!” He could stretch out even more and yet since he has a decent talent and skill, he never tried to make himself stronger. That’s why I think that it’s good that Fujimiya-san knocked him. Nobody among the bodyguards in the Kaan house would try to compete with Chris after all. He became a frog in the well 」

Momoko-neechan values Yamada Taichi-san like that.

Perhaps the Yamada house had been the family that guards the Kaan house since generations ago.

The old Kaan is living like a hermit and he lets his son, Momoko-neechan’s father run the company under control.

The head of the Yamada house is managing the guards of Kaan-san’s son.

Then the son, Yamada Taichi became the bodyguard of the old Kaan.

With that status, the bodyguards of the Kaan house are no match against Yamada Taichi-san.

「 When it comes to bodyguard strength, Kouzuki house, no, Kouzuki SS has no match 」

Yamada Umeko-san said.

「 Sebastianus, toss that pride of yours and join the training in the Kouzuki SS 」

Nowadays, joint training sessions are held regularly at the rented facility of Kouzuki SS for the young ladies of nobility and their bodyguards.

「 I’m sure that your father didn’t want you to interact with the bodyguards from other families, but… This is another one of those things that our generation should reform 」

Momoko-neechan looked at Mariko.

「 I’m coming home with Grandfather today but what about Mariko? Do you want to stay over at our place? How about taking Sakurako with you? 」

She’s inviting the two to her home.

「 I’m sorry to say but Edie-san’s having a victory party in the Kuromori mansion tonight. I will join the party as a member of Kou’s family. Sakurako, of course, you’re coming too. I’ll introduce you to the family 」

Mariko told Sakurako.

「 Yes, please take care of me. Mariko 」

Sakurako replies happily.

「 But before that, Sakurako-san has to visit the doctor. I’m sure that Reika-oneesan’s having a tight-lipped doctor from the Kouzuki SS coming over 」

Katsuko-nee said.

It’s the usual post-deflowering checkup.

「 I will send Misato-chan back to Minaho-ojousama’s place 」

Right.

Misato still has to come back to the Black Forest’s new brothel in the basement of the hotel in front of the station.

「 I’m sorry Misato-san. I… 」

Sakurako apologized to Misato.

Many girls like Misato need to become prostitutes out of their fate, and yet, she asked for a prostitution experience out of temporary despair, and so she apologized.

「 No, people have different fates, and so all I have to do is do my best, and Sakurako-sama should do her best too 」

Misato said.

「 I know that if I’m in so much pain that I can’t bear it then I can ask for Kuromori-sama’s help. So I’m okay 」

She smiles gently.

「 If I do my best for five years, the Kurama house will revive, and I can live together with Arisu again. Then, I will bear Kuromori-sama’s child and become a member of the family as well. I know that I have a bright future ahead, and so I can endure whatever comes 」

「 Good luck. I’ll do my best too. Uhm, can I call Misato-san from time to time? 」

Sakurako asks Misato.

「 We prostitutes are restricted from talking to the outside world, but if Kuormori Minaho-sama permits, then 」

「 It’s okay. You have my permission. Although, you can’t use apps that can get intercepted 」

Katsuko-nee told the two.

Then.

「 U-Uhm 」

Shiranui Shie-san, who had been on the side called me out timidly.

「 W-What do I do now? 」

Sakurako’s going to be under Mariko’s Torii house’s care, away from the Kanou house.

Then, Shiranui-san, Sakurako’s bodyguard;

「 We don’t mind if Shiranui-san comes to our place too 」

Mariko said.

Torii house’s financial wealth makes it possible for them to take in Shirauni-san together with Sakurako.

「 No, I can’t allow that 」

Sakurako speaks with a straight face.

「 Shie, it’s your life, make your decision 」

「 Sakurako-ojousama? 」

「 Since Kanou house will continue to exist, you should have a place there if you return. Shiranui house will continue to follow the Kanou house ven with a small stipend 」

Shiranui Shie-san can return to her father’s place, to the Shiranui house.

「 You can come with me to the Kanzaki house. You can be Noriyasu’s bodyguard, and it will be reassuring to me as we know each other for a long time 」

Sakurako’s mother, Kanou Satoko-san said.

Shie-san has the choice to follow Satoko-san and her child to the Kanzaki house.

「 Shiranui-san also has the option of becoming a bodyguard on other houses. A former bodyguard of the Kanou house is surely welcome to many places 」

Momoko-neechan said.

「 How about joining Kouzuki SS instead? We can talk to Fujiimya-san, oh wait, Kou’s the owner now so if Kou recommends you, you’ll get in without problems 」

Mariko said.

But…

「 I would want to stay by Sakurako-sama’s side 」

Shiranui-san said.

「 However, Kuromori house currently have enough bodyguards 」

Michi said.

「 Furthermore, Shiranui-san is the type that specializes in guarding ladies of nobility so you’re not much use in the Kuromori house 」

Oh, Michi and Edie can use their Qi, they’re smart and incredibly strong too…

The Anjou sisters, Mitama and Kinuka put everything they have into combat power.

There’s also Haiji who uses tricks up her sleeve.

Yomi who can use the Miko power is currently aiming to become a bodyguard too.

Margo-san’s focus shifted from being a bodyguard to a martial artist, but still, we can count on her if anything happens.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

Furthermore, there’s Kyouko-san who will come to our aid in crisis.

Shiranui-san doesn’t have much to offer as a bodyguard, so she may not be fit in our place.

「 What do we do? Danna-sama 」

Misuzu asks me.

I…

「 Shiranui-san, what else can you do apart from your bodyguard job? 」

I asked her.

「 I-I’ve always been Sakurako-sama’s bodyguard ever since I was born 」

「 Forget the past, I’m asking what else can Shiranui-san do other than being a bodyguard? 」

「 B-But, I… 」

That moment;

「 Shie’s good at sewing!! 」

Sakurako said.

「 She sewed me a handkerchief and even made me a dress 」

「 Could it be the outfit Sakurako was wearing during the Kanou main house gathering during summer? 」

Mariko asks.

「 Yes, that’s right 」

「 Ah, I knew it! That was lovely. I thought that it was a talented maker 」

Mariko looked at Shiranui Shie-san.

「 Uhm, the extent of what I can do with sewing is only until hobby 」

「 No, you’re talented! I can definitely recommend it. Kuromori-sama, Shie can do sewing! 」

If that’s the case…

「 Then, we’ll take Shiranui-san for her sewing talent 」

I said.

「 Well, staying together with Sakurako normally is okay but Sakurako and Mariko are going to be together so you’ll be in the Kuromori mansion half of the week, right? 」

「 Isn’t that obvious? I don’t want to decrease the times I can have sex with Kou. I also want Sakurako to know how it feels cumming together with Kou 」

Mariko smiled.

「 Then, Shiranui-san will remain as Sakurako’s bodyguard in name but when she comes to our place, she will be the seamstress 」

「 We don’t have a lot of girls who can sew so it’ll help a lot 」

Katsuko-nee smiled.

「 Please teach Yomi too! 」

Yomi said with a smile.

「 U-Uhm, a-are you sure that I don’t have to be K-Kuromori-sama’s servant? 」

Shiranui-san asks me timidly.

「 No, well, sorry but I’ve been thinking about a lot on what to do with Shiranui-san, yet… 」

I said.

「 But, you know, I’ve been busy trying to find out what kind of girl Sakurako is 」

I look at Sakurako’s beautiful face.

「 Well, it’s not like I’ll fully understand her in such a short time. I mean, I still don’t fully understand Misuzu or Ruriko, who I’ve been together with for longer. Sometimes, I get a flash “Maybe this is how she is,” but humans are creatures. They always change. It’s impossible to understand them completely 」

Yeah.

「 That’s why I don’t want to misunderstand that I know women, nor pretend that I do. But, I always want to understand them better, and I always put in the effort to do so 」

I don’t know a lot.

That’s the truth.

「 Today, my first priority was to understand Sakurako, I can’t say that I understood something, but still, I think that I was able to peek inside the depths of Sakurako’s mind, even for a bit. And I was preoccupied with that. You see, I’m quite slow headed 」

「 That’s not true 」

Sakurako told me.

「 I still don’t know much about Shiranui-san. I lack time to understand you. What I know is that you’re a kind person that cares about Sakurako and that you have a beautiful face and body, but I don’t know much more than that 」

「 I-I’m Kanou Sakurako-sama’s bodyguard. There’s nothing more than that 」

Shiranui-san said, but…

「 Wrong. Shiranui-san, you’re a woman before Sakurako’s bodyguard. 」

I said.

「 You’re not “just” a bodyguard. Even bodyguards have different personalities, different areas of expertise, different hobbies, and tastes 」

「 No, Master’s bodyguards all love Master. Meaning, our taste in men are the same 」

Michi said, but…

「 That’s where you’re wrong Michi. Danna-sama tunes himself more with our preferences. Therefore, women of various tastes all become Danna-sama’s woman 」

Misuzu corrects Michi’s view.

「 Anyway, let’s take some time to understand each other first, or else, I don’t know what I should do with Shiranui-san either 」

I said.

「 It’s okay, isn’t it? Shiranui-san can stay with Sakurako anyway 」

Mariko told Shie-san with a smile.

「 Y-You’re right. T-Then, please take care of me as the seamstress 」

Shiranui-san accepted our proposal.

「 Haaa 」

Then, Momoko-neechan sighed.

「 After watching the whole day, I can say that Kou-chan’s bigger than I thought 」

HUh?

「 Well, my dick isn’t that big 」

I said in a panic.

Momoko-neechan watched me have sex with Sakurako.

「 Well, it’s not like I know the size of other men, but… When I lived in a dorm during middle school, I met some guys with huge dicks in bathrooms. Like, do you know about 500mL bottles? Some guys have such huge dicks even when they’re not erect 」

「 I think that Kou-chan’s size is just good enough for Misuzu and the girls. Pet bottles are just nonsense. That’s just a horror film monster! 」

Momoko-neechan said, but…

「 But no, it’s not like I’m talking about your penis at all! Geez! 」

Huh, was I wrong?

「 Anyway, I was also preoccupied with Sakurako today. That’s why I’m going home, but next time… 」

Next time?

「 Next time, I’ll face Kou-chan myself 」

Momoko-neechan said.

「 If not, I think I might face my limit 」

What limit?

「 See you later! Kou-chan! Sebastianus! Mariko, let’s go back to Grandfather’s room 」

Momoko-neechan turned around and went to the doorway.

「 Yeah, see you later, Momoko-neechan 」

I called Momoko-neechan, and then…

「 Yes. Let’s meet again soon 」

Momoko-neechan turned to me with a smile.

◇ ◇ ◇

「 Kuromori-sama, please take care of Sakurako 」

People who are coming to pick up Kanou Satoko-san have come.

Kouzuki SS, and people from Satoko-san’s home, Kanzaki house.

She will leave the Kanou house and bring her son, Noriyasu-kun back to the Kanzaki house.

The branch families and vassals of the Kanou house may resist the idea of the heir being taken away but it seems that the Kaan and Kouzuki house has shown their intentions already.

Well, with Kanou Noriaki being confined, Jii-chan and Kaan-san’s groundwork with the Kanou house should be almost finished.

There shouldn’t be any major problems.

If done poorly, Kanou house will collapse for real, and they understand that.

「 Yes, leave Sakurako to me 」

「 Then, if you’d excuse me 」

Kanou Satoko-san bows her head to me again and left the room.

The remaining people are;

Katsuko-nee, Misuzu, Ruriko, Yoshiko-san, Michi, Misato, Sakurako, Shiranui Shie-san, and me.

「 Kanou Sakurako-sama, the doctor is here 」

Taki-san from Kouzuki SS came in and said.

It’s been a while.

「 Then, I’m going 」

Sakurako tells me.

「 Yeah, take Shiranui-san with you. It’s lonely to go alone

「 O-Okay 」

With that said, Sakurako-san and Shiranui-san left the room.

Now there’s seven.

As soon as Sakurako-san left.

「 Haaaaa, I’m such a hopeless woman 」

Misuzu sighs.

「 If you say that then you’ll become one 」

Katsuko-nee said with a smile.

「 Life is long, if it didn’t work out today, then try coming back tomorrow 」

「 That’s right, Misuzu-oneesama. If Misuzu-oneesama’s being disappointing, I will take the Kouzuki house and Onii-sama then 」

Ruriko said.

「 Do you mind if Misuzu-oneesama and Onii-sama’s engagement breaks off and Ruriko marries Onii-sama in front of the nobility? 」

「 R-Ruriko? 」

Misuzu’s surprised.

「 I think I’ve suppressed my desires too much. I’m competing now. Why don’t we polish each other more, Misuzu-oneesama? If not, Sakurako-san from the Kanou house or Momoko-oneesaama from the Kaan house will take Onii-sama 」

Ruriko said.

「 Right. I may have been a bit too frolic because I stand as Danna-sama’s fiancee. I need to renew my determination 」

Misuzu said, then…

The phone in the room rang.

「 I’ll pick it up 」

Michi took the phone.

「 Yes, certainly. Then please wait for a moment. Master, it’s Kouzuki-sama 」

Jii-chan’s calling?

I took the receiver from Michi.

「 I took the phone 」

『 Yes, it’s me 』

That’s Jii-chan’s voice.

『 As you may have heard from Kaan, I had an important matter to attend to, and I have another meeting after this 』

Yeah, some VIP from some country.

『 Therefore, I don’t know everything that happened today, but Seki-kun had been reporting most of the events to me 』

Instead of Jii-chan, Shou-neechan’s watching our status.

『 Kaan’s been depressed because of what you did 』

「 Well, that’s… 」

『 Don’t mind it, it happened to me during Ruriko’s time before 』

Huh. Really?

『 People from our standing don’t get scolded by others. They all speak other bad things in a roundabout manner to humor us. Ruriko’s case was a good lesson for me. I’m the one who sold Ruriko to you but it felt like you took Ruriko away from me 』

Jii-chan said.

『 It’s the same with Kaan now, he thought that he had you and Sakurako-kun under his control but before he knew it, the strings of manipulation had been cut and you were on your own. That has to be a fresh experience for him 』

I see.

『 The truth is that the Kuromori house is independent of us. Margo-kun didn’t ask for our assistance. She’s trying to organize a martial arts show using her resourcefulness 』

Margo-san showed off a fight with Rei-chan during the party in the Kouzuki mansion to find sponsors, but…

She never sought assistance from Jii-chan, from the Kouzuki house.

『 She knows that relying on the Kouzuki house for everything is hazardous. She also felt that it’s not fun to be in that position. She’s a woman with such a strong independent spirit. Minaho-kun and Katsuko-kun are too. The women of the Kuromori house are strong. They have my respect 』

Jii-chan said.

『 Katsuko-kun is right, I’m just a member of your family because of your pity. I’m genuinely happy that you call me “Jii-chan.” If possible, I still want to see your child, be it Misuzu, Ruriko, or Yoshiko. That’s my only wish now 』

Jii-chan speaks with a serious voice, then returned to a bright tone.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

『 I’ll talk to Kaan. You don’t have to worry about him. If an old man gets depressed, only a friend of the same age can console him, or else he will feel worse. So, follow up on Misuzu. I’m sure that they’re feeling down because of the energetic girls from other houses, right? 』

「 Well, yeah 」

『 I’ll let you take care of it, also, if possible, follow up on Kanou Satoko-kun as well 』

Huh?

『 To your eyes, Sakurako-kun’s mother may seem like a respectable adult, but Kaan and I know Satoko-kun since she was born in the Kanzaki house. Satoko-kun is a daughter of nobility that we have to rescue 』

I see. For Jii-chan, who’s already 82…

Sakurako-san’s mother, Satoko-san, is just like Sakurako.

『 That Kaan said that the head of the Kanou house will be uncertain for ten years, but Kaan and I are already 80. I can’t guarantee that we’ll last for ten more years. More importantly, since Kaan’s granddaughter and Misuzu trust you, Satoko-kun has entrusted you with her precious daughter. She’s betting on your future prospects 』

Oh, so that’s it.

She doesn’t necessarily trust me.

Satoko-san, who came from the Kanzaki house, and got married to the Kanou house;

She knows Kaan Momoko-neechan and Misuzu.

Therefore, she believes in Momoko-neechan and entrusted Sakurako to me.

『 Satoko-kun’s husband will be confined, and she and her son will return from the Kanou house to her home, which should be shocking to her. You also took the daughter she loved, Sakurako-kun. However, Satoko-kun is a daughter of nobility too. I’m sure she doesn’t want younglings like you to see her face of pain. She endured it 』

「 Yeah 」

『 Therefore, I’ll do something with Satoko-kun, I already asked her best friend from her school days to come. I also told the head of Kanzaki house to not blame Satoko-kun 』

Right…

「 Is there anything we can do, Jii-chan? 」

I asked.

『 Nothing. If you force me to say, then just pretend to not notice. Older people are hurt when the younger worry about them 』

Oh, I see.

Jii-chan told me the same with Kaan-san.

To not do anything unnecessary follow-ups

「 Okay 」

I replied to Jii-chan.

◇ ◇ ◇

Kouzuki SS will take Sakurako and Shie-san back to the Kuromori house later…

We’re okay to go home first so we called Rei-chan.

We got on the exclusive elevator and head down to the VIP parking lot underground.

However, Rei-chan who brought us on the way…

She hasn’t come back from Kaan-san’s place.

Only five people can fit into Katsuko-nee’s car.

There are seven of us.

Now then, what do we do? I thought, then;

「 Hey, this way! Here! 」

Huh, Margo-san?

Margo-san’s in the parking lot.

Ooh, it’s Margo-san’s business-use van after a long time.

The white body has a “Maruko Ceremony” logo in it this time.

「 Huh, I thought that Margo-san’s the star of the party tonight? 」

Why is she here?

「 Well yes, that’s why Mana-chan and the girls who were making preparations kicked me out of the mansion 」

Margo-san smiled wryly.

「 Besides, the party won’t start until you’re there so Nei told me to come and get you 」

「 Oh, sorry 」

Anyway, now we have two cars.

Katsuko-nee’s car has to drop off Misato at the hotel near the station, but the distance won’t take a 15-minute drive until we reach the mansion.

「 Get in 」

Margo-san said and we got inside the car.

The bodyguards have to split up in the cars.

So Michi went in Katsuko-nee’s car.

「 Danna-sama, I think you should go home first 」

Yeah, so I’m riding Margo-san’s car.

Then.

Huh?

From the elevator hall;

Kaan-san came to the parking lot with Momoko-neechan, Mariko, Yamada Taichi-san, and Yamada Umeko-san, and a lot of bodyguards.

「 Oh my 」

Momoko-neechan smiled.

「 Mariko, do you want to ride there? 」

Mariko;

「 Kou! I’ll wait for Sakurako so I’m coming later! 」

She shouted to me.

「 Okay, got it! 」

I replied, but…

Kaan-san behind Momoko-neechan and Mariko;

He looks quite displeased.

I knew it, there’s some lingering effect when we dented him.

So, I…

「 Kaan-san! Let’s play again! 」

I shouted to Kaan-san cheerfully.

「 Boy, you? 」

「 Next time, let’s not play by Kaan-san’s rules but mine! Look forward to it! 」

I shouted.

Kaan-san’s expression loosened.

「 Hmph, do as you see fit 」

We got in our cars and left the hotel.
