Chapter 8: CH 8

There exists a concept known as the law of universal gravitation.

Objects above the ground are not just pulled down, but every object in the universe is pulling on one another. In other words they have gravitational pull.

That was the same even in the other world.

The heavier something is the stronger the pull towards the ground is.

However the two masses before my eyes, as if to mock that law, bounce upwards to emphasise their beautiful shape and glossy tone.

“Ta- Tatatatatsuya-kun, so suddenly. Ma- Maya is still awake I think”

As I was absorbed contemplating physics, Kanako-chan takes a pose reminiscent of Sandro Botticelli’s ‘The Birth of Venus’.

Her right hand covering her chest and her left hand at a more important place.

――Aah, it’s like the goddess of beauty is here.

The new truth brought to me by contemplating fine arts left a deep impression on me.

“What are you doing to mom!”

From behind, Maya-chan does a jumping knee drop.

“Now, get walking!”

I decided that it was probably not a good idea to dodge and took Maya-chan’s jumping knee drop to the face.

It’s definitely not because, as her legs were spread wide open, my gaze was drawn once again to her flower print panties.

“Are you okay?”

Asks Kanako-chan with a concerned face….. But Maya-chan, with her ears and tail hidden, replies,

“Don’t worry mom. I’ll be sure to properly train this mongrel”

She grabs me by the scruff of the neck and drags me out of the changing room to the storefront.

“Rook is chasing after the fleeing mages, Shrine Maiden-chan is in custody in my special room. That place is fully equipped with food and a bathroom”

“But the mafia and your brother still remain right”

Oh yeah, they were so irrelevant I completely forgot.

I thought they would have run away by now but my brother is still slumped down in front of the store. The rest of the mafia have also collapsed outside.

“Ryuujin-sama subdued them”

I look up and see the Dragon King looking down on the mafia who are groaning.

“The Dragon King’s nickname. They call me Sato-chan back, it’s how our relationship is

Maya-chan wordlessly tilts her head,

“What should we do with these guys”

I gaze at the five dirty men and fold my arms,

“Whatever we do, we probably shouldn’t just let them run like this”

She pouts her cheeks and glares at me

Certainly this is a place with bad public order where bandits can roam around mugging people and leaving the fallen cartridges and bullets would cause trouble for Kanako-chan later.

“Understood”

I use magic to gather all the traces of a gunfight and shove them into the minivan then fix my younger brothers wig before poking him in the cheek.

“Y-Y-You’re…..”

I feel some pity looking at his frightened expression but,

“Coward who flees from sin, when night descends remember this face. ――This is terror”

I gaze into his eyes, and make a smile with my true face.

While I’m at it I search his memories of nineteen years ago but, as expected he wasn’t even aware he killed his older brother.

Like this I won’t even be able to pinpoint the person behind this all.

I stuff my brother, who had fainted once again, into the minivan and speak to the collapsed mafia members,

“Now please drive safely on your way back”

After I use magic to plant a suggestion on them, they all nod their heads up and down and pile into the car.

“Hey, what kind of magic was that?”

“A simple suggestion. They’ll return to normal in a few hours”

Well, my brother might not be able to sleep for a while.

“Not the mafia, that hopeless person who seems like they may be related by blood”

I stroke Maya-chan’s head, whose expression had turned serious.

“I didn’t use any sort of magic”

As I tell her the truth…..

Translator’s Notes:

1: Kanako says batsuichi which literally means one cross (as in having a name struck from the family register) and is slang for a divorcee so Saitou’s confusion is slightly more understandable.

Sorry for missing a chapter last week I was pretty busy over the Christmas/New Year period. With this chapter we’ve finished the first act of Great Sage. See you next week for the start of act 2, ‘Fools Dance in the Moonlit Night’.
