「 Papa, take care! 」
「 Take care! 」
Everyone in the family sent us off from the entrance as we’re heading to have a meeting with Kanou Sakurako-san.
「 Ruri-tan, Mariko, Michi, take care of Danna-sama 」
Misuzu said.
「 We’ve talked about this but you’ll have to tell us the details later 」
She’s worried since she can’t join the conversation with Kanou-san.
Then…
「 Misuzu-oneesama, it’s troublesome if you don’t even trust us 」
Ruriko said.
「 You’re our big sister so please stay strong 」
Ruriko said. Misuzu’s surprised.
「 I-I… 」
「 Don’t fight! 」
「 Get along! 」
Mao-chan and Agnes intervened.
「 It’s okay, they’re not fighting 」
Nagisa told the two with a gentle smile.
「 Ruriko-chan’s just giving Misuzu-chan advice. Look, when Mao or Agnes-chan does something that’s not good, we give you the same treatment, don’t we? 」
「 But, Misuzu-chan is the older one 」
Agnes looked at Misuzu.
「 Oh, giving advice doesn’t care about ae. “This is for the better,” is something you say to the other person because you like them and you get along with them 」
「 So they get along? 」
Mao-chan looked at Misuzu and Ruriko.
「 Yes. If they’re not getting along, then they won’t be caring for each other like that 」
Nagisa told his beloved daughter.
「 Hmm, is that so? 」
「 That’s how it is, Agnes-chan. You’ll understand it when you go to school. If a child is misbehaving to the point that they’re bothering others, then you have to warn them to behave better. But if it’s just a little misbehavior, there’s no need to warn them on every single thing. If you like the other person, you’ll tell them to get their act together even if it’s just a small thing 」
「 If you love them and they don’t do things right, then you’ll worry about them 」
Nei said.
Misuzu’s dumbfounded. Ruriko;
「 We believe in Misuzu-oneesama 」
For the group that goes to the school for the young ladies, Misuzu sees herself as their leader.
Therefore, she feels that it’s disgraceful for her to be seen that she’s showing no composure.
「 I-I understand I’m sorry 」
Misuzu apologized to Ruriko.
「 I believe in Danna-sama and you girls, I’ll be waiting 」
「 There’s no problem, I’m here 」
「 Me too 」
Michi and Mariko called the depressed Misuzu.
「 Rei-chan’s also with us so you don’t have to worry, Misuzu 」
I said.
「 Then, we’re heading out, we will be back before evening 」
I told the family who’s sending us off.
◇ ◇ ◇
We got inside the usual mansion’s Benz.
Rei-chan’s driving, Michi’s shotgun.
Mariko, me, Ruriko sit on the rear in that order.
The car arrives before the mansion’s huge iron gate and it drives through the road.
Oh, Rei-chan’s driving and Ruriko’s in the car.
So, one convoy from Kouzuki SS follows in front and rear.
Although, they’re using different car models, sizes, and colors as camouflage.
Only professionals can tell that they’re guarding our car.
「 You girls sure are on good terms 」
Rei-chan told Ruriko with a smile
「 From here on, we need to have a relationship where we can freely express our thoughts to each other 」
Ruriko said with a straight face.
「 After what happened last night, it’s great that everyone’s getting along, but we don’t want to get too close that we start to get used to each other 」
Yeah, the sex photo session last night was a necessary event for the young ladies to bond with each other, but…
It’s not good if they get too familiar with each other that it becomes a compromised relationship.
「 I think that I’m the only one who can talk to Misuzu-oneesama like that 」
Mariko or Erica can’t just complain to Misuzu as she’s the young lady of the Kouzuki house.
It had to be Ruriko, even if she’s younger, she’s a daughter of the Kouzuki house too.
「 Katsuko-san, and Nagisa-san, or maybe Minaho-san will give her warnings 」
Rei-chan said.
Yeah, Rei-chan who’s in the Kouzuki SS, and Shou-neechan, will find it hard to scold Misuzu.
「 I think it’s good that our big sisters are warning her, but these are for us to settle ourselves 」
Ruriko said.
「 Right, even earlier, it worked because it was Ruriko talking to Misuzu 」
I think that the young ladies should solve the problems by themselves.
「 Ruriruri’s become mature now 」
Michi said.
「 Misuzu-oneesama has always been in a master-servant relationship with me, and so nothing much has changed since the past six months 」
She’s an attendant of hers that she can talk intimately to.
「 I’ve distanced myself from Yoshiko for the past half-year. Being alone gave me time to think about my position in the family 」
Ruriko said.
「 Misuzu-oneesama has to be the front face of the Kouzuki house someday for us 」
「 Ruriko, do you have no intention of inheriting the house? 」
I asked.
「 I will be Onii-sama’s sex slave for the rest of my life. Recently, I start to understand what it meant for Grandfather to sell me for 3000 yen. Grandfather already chose Misuzu-oneesama as his successor during that time 」
If he intends her to succeed the house, then he won’t sell her to me.
「 Kuromori Kou, Onii-sama is recognized as Misuzu-oneesama’s fiance. Someday, you will marry each other. And I will serve Onii-sama as your slave for the rest of our lives 」
Right.
I have two family registers, but…
Kuromori Kou will have to officially marry Misuzu someday.
I’m marrying the young lady of the Kouzuki house, so the reception will be also spectacular.
Therefore, I can’t marry Ruriko.
「 Onii-sama 」
Ruriko leans to me.
「 Sure 」
I embraced Ruriko’s small body.
「 I won’t ever let you go, Ruriko will always be mine 」
「 Yes, I’ll be Onii-sama’s slave forever 」
Ruriko said.
「 We’re driving so don’t kiss. It’s dangerous 」
Rei-chan tells us.
Right, it’s going to be troublesome if our teeth bumped or we bite our tongues.
「 If so, Onii-sama 」
Ruriko invites my hand inside her clothes.
「 Sure 」
I enjoy the feeling of Ruriko’s skin and her elastic breasts wrapped in her bra.
「 Kou, it’s unfair that it’s just Ruri-san 」
Mariko cuddles to my side.
「 I’ll also be with Kou for the rest of my life 」
She said and presses her breasts to my chest.
「 Yeah, we will be 」
I said.
For as long as we’re alive.
「 By the way, Mariko. About Kanou Sakurako-san. 」
I slip down Ruriko’s bra with my right hand and ask Mariko while touching Ruriko’s nipples.
「 Not now, let’s do it when we meet Sakurako-san 」
Mariko says while rubbing her cheeks to my left hand.
「 It’s a delicate problem so I don’t want to say anything unnecessary. 」 Kou, I want you to hear everything from Sakurako-san herself 」
All I know that it’s involving Kanou Sakurako-san’s private life.
Apart from that, I’ll have to meet with the person and talk to her directly.
「 Okay, I’ll do as Mariko says 」
I agreed.
◇ ◇ ◇
We drive across the city center and arrived in a Kouzuki house’s hotel where we met Jii-chan and the head of the Kaan house the other day.
We stopped the car in the underground parking lot, and then…
Staff from the hotel came over.
「 Yes, thank you 」
Rei-chan opened the driver’s seat door and took something.
It’s probably the key card to the room.
She already contacted them that Ruriko will use the room today.
There’s no need to go to the lobby, they went to pass it here.
「 That’s a staff from the Kouzuki SS 」
Rei-chan whispered to me.
Jii-chan uses this hotel all the time when traveling incognito, so…
There are exclusive employees from Kouzuki house among the staff.
「 Are we going up to the floor through the elevator directly? 」
I asked.
「 No, we’ll go to the tea room of the hotel first 」
Ruriko replied.
「 Yes, Sakurako-san has arrived in the tea room of the hotel already 」
Mariko who has direct contact with Kanou-san, said.
Right, it would be weird if we visit the hotel room right away.
「 Let’s go to the second room 」
We get off the car.
「 I’ll follow them, everyone, stand by 」
Rei-chan told the guards from Kouzuki SS who followed us from the mansion.
They scattered around the parking lot.
「 This hotel has a break room for the bodyguards 」
Rei-chan whispered.
This is a Kouzuki house facility so their security measures are flawless.
From security cameras to specialized staff, this hotel is safe.
If a dangerous person comes over, they will be checked and eliminated right away.
Furthermore, the floor exclusive to the Kouzuki house is used for secret meetings by Jii-chan so it’s shut out from outside interference.
It’s soundproof, and reception won’t leak outside, so there’s no need to worry about wiretapping.
「 Reika-oneesama, please open the trunk 」
「 Okay, I’m opening it now 」
Rei-chan opens the car trunk.
「 Ruriko, that’s… 」
Ruriko took out a huge bag.
「 Uhm, machines for recording 」
Recording?
Oh.
Ruriko loves filming sex, so if Kanou Sakurako-san actually does prostitution…
She’s prepared to record the deflowering.
Ruriko’s favorite sex-filming-use digital camera. She has one for video and photo recording.
I’m sure that she prepared this last night and stuffed it in the trunk of the car.
「 I’ll carry them 」
Anyway, since I’m empty-handed, I can’t just let Ruriko carry huge luggage like that.
I carry Ruriko’s favorite recording equipment bag.
「 Thank you, Onii-sama 」
Thinking about Ruriko’s fetish, this is a natural outcome
「 Let’s go 」
Rei-chan takes the lead, Ruriko, Mariko, and I follow, and Michi follows from the back.
We move inside the hotel with that structure.
We get on the elevator and up to the second floor.
The tea room is straight ahead.
「 We can eat the room-service parfait we had the other day in here too 」
Ruriko said.
Speaking of which, Agnes and Luna were eating it happily.
The tea room is facing the hotel’s courtyard.
The light from the sun is shining brightly.
It’s Sunday morning, but there are a decent number of customers here.
「 Onii-sama, this way 」
The bellboy checked Rei-chan and Ruriko’s faces, and then guided us on the reserved seats, seats with a good view.
It’s a big round table that can fit ten people in.
「 This is Grandfather’s favorite seat. And so, it’s always a reserved seat when Grandfather’s not present 」
Even though it’s not full, it’s still reserved.
「 Oh, please don’t sit over there. That’s exclusive only to Kakka 」
Rei-chan said.
「 They call it the seat of peril because if anyone other than Kakka sits there, it’ll bring them bac luck 」
「 Grandfather spread that “Legend” himself, as he loves the Arthurian stories like that 」
Ruriko smiled wryly.
「 Oh, Arthur’s seat in the round table is also called the seat of peril 」
Mariko understood right away. I didn’t.
「 But if I recall correctly, wasn’t Sir Galahad the one sitting on the seat of peril among the round table? 」
「 Sir Galahad had the seat of Peril but he died early after accomplishing his hunt 」
Michi told Mariko.
「 The three characters making up the story of King Arthur, are himself, Sir Lancelot, and Sir Galahad, each of them had their own missing piece that prevents them from becoming the ideal knight. The ideal knight is a good lord, a good Christian, and a courtly love with a noble lady. King Arthur is the king, so he’s a good lord, but as a king, he has to be fair with all his people, so he’s not allowed to fight for his queen, Queen Guinevere, nor he’s allowed to abandon his position to search for the Holy Grail as the Christian. Lancelot is a noble knight, and he had a courtly affair with Queen Guinevere, but as a Christian, he’s stigmatized and so he cannot obtain the Holy Grail. Sir Galahad was able to sit in the seat of peril and take the Holy Grail because he’s an unscathed knight, however, he died young which means he couldn’t experience courtly love as a knight.
Michi tells me.
「 Well, what are you eating Kou? 」
Mariko shows me the menu.
Wow, even a cup of coffee costs a lot.
Look at the curry rice, it’s 3000 yen.
「 Coffee will do. We’ll move as soon as Kanou-san comes over 」
I don’t think we can ask Kanou Sakurako-san about her desire for prostitution in this place.
「 Indeed. Then I’ll take coffee too 」
In the end, everyone ordered coffee.
「 Onii-sama, shall we make the round table in our mansion too? 」
Ruriko said.
「 Place one name on each seat. Making the seat of peril seems fun too 」
「 That looks fun, Kou and his round table of women 」
Mariko smiled, but I don’t get what’s fun about it at all.
「 Ruriruri, I don’t think that’s a good idea. We don’t know how many more people will join our family after all 」
Michi replies with her usual blank face.
「 If that’s the case, we just have to make a huge round table that can fit 100 people. Some say that there were only 13 seats in King Arthur’s round table but there are more than 13 knights of the round table in Arthurian stories 」
Mariko said.
「 The Round Table of King Arthur hung at the great hall at Winchester had 24 seats 」
Rei-chan said with a smile.
Oh right, she has an interest in the UK. Rei-chan.
「 Mallory’s version says that it can fit 300 people 」
Michi said.
What kind of table is that, being able to fit 300 people.
While we’re talking…
「 Excuse me 」
Kanou Sakurako-san has arrived.
Her bodyguard, Shiranui Shie-san, and an old man were with her.
「 We’ve been waiting, please, take a seat 」
This is a Kouzuki house’s facility so Ruriko’s the one dealing with her.
「 Sakamoto, wait in the car 」
Kanou-san told the old man.
This man must be her chauffeur.
「 However 」
Sakamoto looks at Sakurako-san worriedly.
「 I’m Fujimiya from Kouzuki SS 」
Rei-chan stood up and told Sakamoto.
「 I’m here with them so there is no need to worry 」
Rei-chan should know this driver.
Rei-chan took out her business card.
「 There’s a break room for chauffeurs on the basement floor so take a rest there. We will contact you when Kanou Sakurako-sama is ready to leave. Just show this to the hotel staff or Kouzuki SS and they will lead you to the room 」
「 No, but… 」
Sakamoto tries to refuse while taking the business card, but…
「 Take it, unless we want to be rude to Kouzuki-sama 」
Kanou Sakurako-san orders.
「 You don’t have to worry about anything Sakamoto, this is Kouzuki-sama’s hotel 」
「 Excuse me 」
Sakamoto took Rei-chan’s business card.
「 Fujimiya-san, please take care of Sakurako-ojousama 」
「 Yes, she’s in our care 」
「 Shiranui-san too, take care of her 」
He also called out Shiranui Shie-san, Kanou house’s bodyguard.
「 I know
Shie-san’s expression is stiff.
I knew it, there has to be some problem inside the Kanou house.
「 Then, I will take my leave
Sakamoto bows his head and left.
I…
「 For now, sit down. Let’s drink coffee 」
We shouldn’t rush to the main subject right away.
First, let’s drink some coffee and calm Kanou-san down.
「 Uhm, I… 」
Kanou-san’s nervous have a gloomy face.
「 We already ordered coffee so drink yours too. If you don’t like coffee then we’ll ask for something else 」
I took out the menu.
「 You don’t have to rush. It’s still morning so let’s take our time 」
「 Indeed, Kanou-sama 」
Ruriko told the two
「 Sakurako-san, that’s what Kuromori-sama and Ruriko-sama says so let’s have some tea first 」
Lastly, Mariko told her cousin with a smile.
