Chapter 132: Miso Soup

Heya, I’m back

Sorry for the long wait

It was a busy time, but well, so I decided to buy a laptop

I could only buy a used one though

Looking for one that’s still in good condition was hard

But anyway, I got one

Now I don’t need to borrow a laptop and can translate whenever I want

Yay to me~

Chapter 132 Miso Soup

A devilish smell comes from the kitchen and makes me feel hungry. I guess forcing myself to go for a run with Haru early in the morning was worth it. Breakfast, which is usually lined up on the table when I wake up, becomes even more delicious by enjoying this process. Then, why not get up early every day? Hahaha, do you want to die because of overwork?

「Munyaa… this fragrant and pleasant smell is… Haru-chan’s miso soup…」

「…Huh!? I smell something good!」

The lustful demon and the feral child got up after being caught by the scent. Ahh, I thought that Lily would wake up earlier than me these days, so the smell of cooking was the cause, huh? Especially in the living room, the scent flows directly.

After everyone are all together, Haru and Gobuo bring breakfast. At this point, Touko and Lily stretch their backs and behave like dogs who are told to wait. …… Rather than dogs, maybe a lion and a rabbit?

「Come to think of it, Goshujin-sama, you were awfully in a hurry this morning. What was happening?]

「Eh, really? I was sleeping so soundly that I didn’t notice it at all.」

「Fufufu… Well, I’m the head maid who will take care of the future of this house after all. I’m a talented maid who can notice even the slightest change.」

「Then, you should have woke up.」

「… You see, lack of sleep is bad for my beauty.」

This damn woman was having a night out again, wasn’t she? I will have her tell me the information she got later.

「When I was doing my daily running, Joseph ambushed me. Sensing his presence, Shishō came to save me.」

「Joseph? Do you mean that Joseph!?」

「Is there any other Joseph? Well, I’m sharp when it comes to the presence of someone I hate. I was about to sleep again, but I felt it just before. Well, I’m glad that nothing happened. He didn’t seem to cast any strange magic on Haru.」

「Yes! I was also checking with my Magic Power Detection, but I don’t think there was any sign of that!」

By the time I arrived, Joseph was only talking to Haru and he wasn’t doing anything else. I’m sure he was going to do something from there, but Haru’s false accusation attack and my intervention must have ruined his plans. Well, it doesn’t change the fact that he was up to no good.

「Haa… Why did he target Haru-chan? He is one of the few people who doesn’t get affected by my fascination. If it works, I’ll make him tell his reasons right away, and while I’m at it, I will also grasp his weaknesses.」

「Eh, is that so?」

「There are various conditions for Lily to enter the dream. They have to be of the opposite sex, men in this case. After that, they are off guard and have an opening in their hearts.」

「Usually it’s okay to just put them to sleep since that will make them defenseless.」

「Hee, I don’t really understand, but you are amazing!」

「Yes, I’m actually amazing! You have a good eye, Touko-chan!」

Lily has been in a good mood since the arrival of Touko, who always gives a straightforward opinion without thinking much. Perhaps, they are compatible with each other, huh?

「Well, it doesn’t work on Joseph, though.」

「Auh, Goshujin-sama is merciless… Maybe he’s already withered because of his old age, or he’s gay! It doesn’t work on old people with a little lust and people who are not even interested in girls!」

「No, Joseph is a married man. His partner is clearly a woman. She seems to have died a long time ago, though. His son is already serving the country and he has a grandchild. I only know about his grandchild from the document I saw a long time ago, but she’s now about the same age as Haru. There’s no way he’s gay, you know?」

「T-Tastes and preferences may or may not change on the way… Anyway, it depends! Succubus’s abilities are delicate!」

「Ohh, you are a succubus, huh!? …… What is a succubus?」

Lily’s argument is gradually getting harder. It’s becoming chaotic, so I guess I will stop teasing Lily here.

「By the way, Shishō, what is Joseph’s grandchild doing?」

「That sure is out of the blue. What’s wrong?」

「Well, you said that his grandchild is about the same age as me, so I’m a bit curious. Perhaps, he is going to use his grandchild to get closer to me, right?」

「Uh-huh, now that you mention it, you are right…」

That’s a good point. I was wary of Joseph and his subordinates, but I didn’t think about his grandchild. It’s a bit regrettable that I had my disciple pointed that out

「As I recall, her name is Weerel Joshua. I just saw it in the documents, so I don’t know――」

「――Wee-chan? If it’s her, we had lunch together with her at the academy the other day, you know?」

「… Come again?」

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Haru told me what happened. To summarize the story, Joseph’s granddaughter, Weerel Joshua, nicknamed Wee-chan, is currently attending the Adelheit Magic Academy and is famous as an extraordinary prodigy. It’s enough for that Therese to declare that she’s on the same rank. …… Is there a plus factor in that? I’m not sure.

「And she is the girl who was sitting on the opposite of Haru’s seat. So that’s what you’re saying?」

「That’s right!」

「Leaving aside her martial arts and sports, Haruna has always been good at joining the circle of people. But, how did you get to know her without Deris-danna knowing?」

「Therese-san introduced her to us. We had her shoot magic and I fought with the water orcas!」

She already had a fight without me knowing…! Could it be that the explosion sound that I heard in the principal’s office was caused by Haru and Weerel?

「I have a lot to say, but first of all, Haru. That Wee-chan will probably also participate in the graduation festival. Of course, there is a high possibility that she will appear as Joseph’s pawn. Getting close to her casually is forbidden.」

「Ehh~, she was a good girl, you know?」

「Don’t complain. At least not until the doubts are cleared.」

Even if the child has no ill intentions, it’s troublesome if the guardian has ill intentions. This is the same in any world, not just in this case.

「The magic used by Weerel was water orcas, right? It’s 『Labyris Orca』, you can learn it at level 50 of Water Paint Magic, the higher rank skill of Water Magic. It’s quite a big deal to be able to use something like that at that age. If it’s just the ability to handle magic, it’s better to think that she’s far better than Haru. So, Haru, what did you do against it? Did you hit it with your staff?」

「No, I wasn’t wearing my pouch, so I couldn’t take out my staff… Instead, I overcame it with my fists and kicks!」

「Ohh, as expected of Haruna! You finally win even against the orca!」

「………」

Damn, the tsukkomi can’t be done without Chinatsu! Why is there only the boke role around me!

「W-Well, it’s great to know that she’s using water magic. That alone can help us in dealing with her.」

「What exactly are we going to do?」

「There will be additions to the training I have in mind, and I will have Haru study the basics of the water magic system. Since you can’t use water magic, you have to study it.」

「Awawawawa….」

If we know what kind of magic the opponent has, we can think of ways to deal with it. Even if Haru’s head exploded, it will be food when Haru is in her hunting mode.

「Haru-chan sure has it hard, huh. She also has to do the housework. Oh, the miso soup is delicious.」

「What should I do in the meantime? Ah, please spare me from studying together. I’m even dumber than Haruna and I have no desire to study at all.」

A fake maid and a bad student, they are too defiant… Still, it’s somehow a waste to leave them doing nothing.

「…… Right. Touko, it’s a waste if you do nothing, so while you are here, become Lily’s disciple! She’s good at martial arts after all.」

「Oh, really!? I will be in your care, Lily-shishō!」
