Chapter 9 (1/2)

Harmful Books

「W-What is this?」

「I understand that b.u.t.t is b.u.t.t…… But how is it written?」

There is no culture called manga in this world. Also, they touched a more special culture of the manga in j.a.pan that is unique among all others, which sparked curiosity from the housemaids in mind and body.

「……It is only Ritone that understands this language, so it is inevitable. Let’s ask Ritone to read for us.」

They waited for Ritone to finish reading the folktale, and hand over the manga.

「Ritone-sama, this please.」

「I wholeheartedly decline.」

Ritone ruthlessly declines to translate it.

[TN: I would, too. Who want’s to read a BL manga to curious maids, imagine the destruction.]

「Will you be able to? Uhm, the pictures are very artistically drawn, and we also would like to read it.」

Somewhere along the line, Ritone was now surrounded by curious housemaids.

「It’s because I don’t have the heart to bring BL art to this world. This harmful book will now be incinerated.」

Due to Ritone refusal, the housemaids grumble.

「Such a thing! So cruel!」

「That’s wasteful. This, this will absolutely sell!」

「Ritone-sama is stingy!」

Even though Ritone was severely criticized, they were still not able to make him concede.

「Call it whatever, it’s useless! This pernicious book.」

「…… Then, this is not okay?」

Nellie, the head maid, picks the book Ritone secured himself with a cold face.

It was filled with the dreams of the youth.

「Th-this……」

Shaken for a moment, Ritone responded firmly.

「It’s because of the art.」

[Daily: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)]

「Men are really selfish……」

[TN: No this is not about being selfish, but for the sake of the world.]

The head maid Nellie stared at Ritone with a cold face, but he firmly held his ground.

「However it’s called, this is not good. It will be art if it’s about men and women loving each other, but this is taboo BL art of a man with another man.」
