isuzu-chan, and Ruriko-chan too 」

Katsuko-nee told the Kouzuki daughters.

「 With that said, you girls have to do house sitting 」

Katsuko-nee smiled.

「 As for the girls coming with us, let’s go 」

Arisu, Karen, Mitama, and Kinuka.

「 Well then, we’re going back to study with Agnes-chan 」

「 Take care, Onii-san 」

「 Onee-san, you should get in arguments more 」

「 We’re breaking off now! 」

Eri and Rie left the dining room.

Then, I should go too.

「 Yeah, we’re going now…Err, we’ll be back by evening.
Momoko-neechan’s coming after all 」

「 Y-Yes, Danna-sama 」

Misuzu replied.

Oh man, my schedule this day is also full.

「 Well then, try to get a little better relationship with Yoshiko-san until then.
You can talk or fight, whichever you want 」

「 Onii-sama 」

Ruriko looked at me.

「 You won’t resolve things that simply, so don’t rush to conclusions.
Why not take your time to fix it, even if it’s a month, six, or a year? 」

That’s what I think.

「 You can take as much time as you want.
Yoshiko-san won’t go away, she’ll be always near Ruriko.
So, why don’t you try it, Yoshiko-san? 」

「 Huh? Ah, uhm, I… 」

Yoshiko-san’s confused because I called her out.

「 Yoshiko-san still loves Ruriko, right? 」

She was quite strict with her words earlier.

Even when they’re shouting at each other, Yoshiko-san speaks like a servant.

Ruriko also said that she loves me more than Yoshiko-san.

But, Yoshiko-san;

「 That’s…true.
My love for Ruriko-sama hasn’t changed 」

「 Yoshiko-oneesama 」

「 No matter how much Ruriko-sama changes, Yoshiko will remain as Yoshiko 」

Yeah.

Ruriko and Yoshiko-san’s relationship will never break.

If that’s the case, they can argue as much as they want.
Throw their true opinions as much as they want.

「 Ruriko; put on your clothes already.
Also, have another round with Yoshiko-san 」

I told Ruriko who’s still wearing nothing but an apron.

「 Misuzu too, you should talk to her more.
Michi, look after the girls.
When they’re heating up with their conversation, step in between 」

「 Yes, Master 」

Michi replied.
Then.

「 Tama-oneesama, Kinuka, look after Master 」

「 Leave it to me 」

「 Me! 」

Michi, then Mitama and Kinuka nodded at each other as fellow bodyguards.

「 Okay, let’s get in the car 」

Katsuko-nee leads the way outside the dining room.

◇　◇　◇

「 You did well holding back when Yoshiko-san was acting rashly 」

Katsuko-nee says while we walk the corridor.

「 That was the right choice.
If you were to talk back on everything Yoshiko-san says…

Yoshiko-san won’t be able to stop heating up that she might get to a point of no return 」

Point of no return?

「 Earlier, I talked about how they’re blood-related, and so no matter how much arguments they have, they’ll never leave each other…that was a lie 」

Katsuko-nee said.

「 Even siblings who grew up together since childhood, having a friendly blood relationship, often break down because of some trivial topics.
Just slight damage to the other party’s heart, no matter how trivial the remark can be, it can be the impetus for mutual hate and breaking off.
It often happens 」

「 I know.
Just because people are blood-related doesn’t mean that they have strong bonds 」

After all…

My real parents abandoned me.

「 But, in those girl’s case, Kouzuki house is on the top of the nobility, and it surrounds them, they sense their bonds, and they had to make sure that it doesn’t break 」

Ruriko and Yoshiko-san’s relationship

Also, Misuzu.

「 Just as you said, if you don’t make your bonds stronger in time, then it might just break off suddenly.
」

「 They’re formerly master and attendant, but now both of them are young ladies, but, Yoshiko-san’s not the daughter of the legal wife.
Ruriko and Misuzu have been enduring the pressure as the successors of the Kouzuki house, but Yoshiko-san didn’t receive that, but, that sudden recognition as Jii-chan’s granddaughter also put her to a different kind of pressure that now, Yoshiko-san has the same big pressure on her, but Misuzu and Ruriko hasn’t noticed it 」

Their awareness is off point, their misunderstanding that the other surely understand them makes their relationship complicated.

「 Therefore, for now, they should have no-holds-barred, let out everything they’ve hidden inside of them.
As long as it doesn’t break their relationship 」

Katsuko-nee talked to make Misuzu, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san to have some brake in their minds to prevent them from going to the extremes.

「 Well, we’ll see how it goes by evening 」

「 Yeah.
You’re right 」

I can’t be dealing with Misuzu and Ruriko and Yoshiko-san all the time.

I have to go to Minaho-neesan’s place.

「 It’s a lot of trouble, isn’t it? 」

Arisu said.

「 Kuromori-sama’s always dealing with them earnestly 」

I…

「 It’s just something that I have to do 」

I replied.

「 The things I have to do for my family isn’t trouble.
It’s just natural 」

「 It’s human relationships, after all, complications are an inevitability 」

Katsuko-nee said.

「 It’s possible to do it with an authoritarian method where you order them to do this, do that, but, that doesn’t fix the fundamentals.
What we do is to traffic control the problem at hand, and then the person will have to make the final decisions 」

「 Yeah, Misuzu, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san has to talk to themselves and decide the future of the Kouzuki house 」

I said.

「 Why? Kuromori-sama is Misuzu-sama’s partner, and you’re essentially in control of Ruriko-sama.
Kuromri-sama can steer the Kouzuki house to your will 」

Mitama said.

「 No, sure, Misuzu and Ruriko belongs to me, but not the Kouzuki house 」

I said.

「 How do I say it.
Let’s say, for example, Ruriko’s eating ice cream, then I told her “you’re mine, and so your ice cream is also mine,” then I take away her ice cream.
That’s just wrong to me.
Ruriko belongs to me, but the ice cream belongs to her.
That’s how I feel about it 」

「 He’s got no big ambitions 」

Katsuko-nee smiled at Mitama.

「 Well, of course, I know that Misuzu and Ruriko are going to face a lot of troubles in their succession of the Kouzuki house so I’ll support them all they want.
That said, I can’t do that much.
But, I’ll do what I can.
Those girls are my precious women.
But, Kouzuki house itself doesn’t belong to me.
They’re to inherit that, so I won’t be meddling with it 」

I said.

「 That also applies to the Kurama and Mizushima house.
I have no plans of using Arisu and Karen to take over your homes.
That’s just wrong 」

Err.

「 I’m slow headed and so I’m not a person who can take everything.
What I can take is only your naked selves.
Just that is enough.
I don’t think I can accept anything more than that, like your house for example.
Well, I will still support you girls, but apart from that… 」

「 Sex is enough 」

Katsuko-nee smiled at me.

「 Yeah, that.
I may look narrow-minded saying this, you might even laugh at it, but… 」

I…

「 Don’t cheat on me.
I…I don’t like it if you girls had sex with anyone other than me.
Stay as my woman.
Then, bear my child 」

Arisu, Karen, Mitama, and Kinuka looked at me in a daze.

Katsuko-nee’s the only one laughing.

「 That’s not an order, right? It’s your request

「 Y-Yeah, I’m requesting everyone to do that 」

Then.

「 Uhm, please do not worry.
We’re Kuromori-sama’s slaves.
As long as Kuromori-sama doesn’t order us to leave, then we’ll be by your side 」

Arisu said as their representative and the other girls nodded.

「 I won’t give that order, so don’t go away 」

「 To him, sex is what makes your bonds 」

Katsuko-nee said smilingly.

「 Yeah, he’s irregular, but, Ruriko-chan and Yoshiko-san’s discussion just now had great meaning for you today too 」

Today, me?

「 So far, you create a thick bond with your women by having sex with them 」

Katsuko-nee said.

「 That’s why everyone’s by your side 」

Y-Yeah.

「 But, from now on, you’re going to have sex with girls you can’t make bonds with 」

That’s right, I…

I’m going to have sex with some prostitute candidates.

I’ll be training them…

They will all become prostitutes.

Even if I have sex with them, they won’t become my woman.

Nor my family.

「 It’s good that you’re sympathetic, but, you can’t give your kindness to all the people.
Therefore, you have to learn 」

Learn.

「 It means, drawing the line.
You have to learn by practice that even if you had sex with them, there will be girls who won’t become yours 」

I see.
The training today,

-is also an opportunity for me to learn.

Minaho-neesan called me with that thought in mind.
