To the three, I lower my head and exit the hall.
On the way I meet the head maid Merry-san informing her I was headed to ojou-sama’s room.
She flashed me a sweet smile.
Said “Good luck Lute”, and left..
Luck with what?
I turn the other way and continue down the familiar corridor. Finally arriving at Ojou-sama’s door.
▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼
After knocking, i place my hand on the door.
After a few months, it was the nostalgic Ojou-sama room.
When rescuing madam, there was no time to visit this room.
The room was dark.
Only starlights pa.s.s through the window.
“Ojou-sama, it’s Lute. I’m here to deliver a ma.s.sage from Karen and the others.”
Just like when we met for the first time, ojou-sama laid roundly on the bed covered with a blanket.
She was peeking through the miniboard with a cute red face.
“Ojou-sama?”
[Sit here please.]
She tapped the mini blackboard next to her.
Per her order, I sat on the bed.
Ojou-sama with a flop sat next to me, then looked up into my face.
Her eyes were wet and tears could drop at any time.
“...tsu!”
Without realizing, I was pushed down by Ojou-sama.
On her small lips, mine lays on the bottom.
It was an immature kiss, where teeths collided because she was little bit too forceful.
Gently, our lips separated.
Ojou-sama’s face redden, as blood rush to her head.
“O, ojou-sama!?”
“...you.”
“!?”
I hear her voice for the first time.
The shock from it was greater than the kiss.
Ojousama gazed straight at me as she confessed.
“Lu, Lute….. Onii-chan, I like, you.”
These are the first words I have ever heard from Ojou-sama.
She struggled desperately to squeeze out her words in an attempt to adequately express her feelings.
“I love… you. Make Chrisse….. your wife please.”
Stuttering because she hasn’t spoken for a long time, but her pa.s.sionate feelings reached me.
With her faltering voice, she continued to speak.
About how she heard from Snow about my dream――『I want to help those looking for help』. And how predicting that I would leave one day, she didn’t want to part from me, and realised that she wanted to stay by my side forever.
About how she wanted to stay by my side, and in the same way that she was saved by me, she too wanted to save other people,
About how she loved me, didn’t want to part from me, and wanted to follow me to the end of the world.
Although she faltered, Chrisse-Ojousama gave it her all to convey that to me.
Pitiful like a small child, she was really lovable.
My chest gradually grew hot.
However, I already have Snow――
Had the orders in which I met them been different, I wonder how my reply would have been.
I placed my hand on Ojousama’s shoulder, and stood up.
Sitting down once more, I corrected my posture.
“I’m really happy that you feel that way, Ojousama. However… I have Snow as my fiancée. I cannot betray her.”
“Lut, e-Oniich, an, I li… ke, you. I love, you. I’ll try, my best, with the rif, le. So… please,, don’t leave … me”
“...!”
That’s foul play.
There’s no way that I could abandon Ojousama.
Thanks to her, I was picked up by the Vlad House.
Had things gone badly, I might have been sold as a male prost.i.tute, or sent to work in a mine until I died.
And moreover, she might become depressed and hole up in her room again. In that room that even the sunlight couldn’t enter. Ojousama would once again stop moving forward, and spend a long time by herself.
Just having that scene float through my mind made my heart feel like it was being blended to shreds.
What’s more, just imagining another man’s hands run over her limbs was enough to make me feel violently ill.
I want to protect her.
I want her to be mine.
Chrisse Gate Vlad is adorable…-!
TL Note : OF COURSE SHE IS! SHE IS LOLI! rei_hunter
But still! Even still――!
I can’t betray Snow!
“I like you too, Ojousama. I love you. However… I also love Snow. It is… impossible for me, to betray her.”
“-....”
Ojousama’s shoulders dropped sadly.
She sluggishly reached her hand out for her mini-blackboard.
[As expected, I could not win against Snow-Oneechan.]
“...I’m sorry. But, had the order in which I met you two been the other way around, I think the result would have been different.”
[I understand… Then, I will also give my all to support you, as your second wife, Oniichan.]
“Yeah. You’ll have to give your all as my second wife… Huh?”
[Snow-Oneechan and I made a promise. If I wasn’t able to become the first wife, then I would marry Oniichan as the second wife.]
“HUH!? When was this?”
[Our late-night meeting at Meiya-san’s house.]
Meiya, night, night meeting… That time!?
Ojousama hiding bashfully behind Snow wasn’t because she heard about my embarra.s.sing past!?
As I was recalling that day, with good timing, Snow came along into the room.
“Chrisse-chan, are you finished talking?”
[Yes. I could not win against you, Snow-Oneechan. However, I want to support Oniichan from now on as his second wife.]
“Ehehehe, I believed in you, Lute-kun. As you’d expect, the bonds between childhood friends who’ve been together since they were born are quite strong, huh? But you don’t have to worry, Chrisse-chan. Lute-kun is definitely the type of person who’ll love us equally without caring about first or second, after all.”
[All right! I will try my best as well, to support Oniichan with you, Snow-Oneechan!]
“Mn! From now on, let’s try our best together.”
The two of them easily consented to bigamy.
Certainly, in this world and age, polygamy and the like isn’t really uncommon.
It’s cultural differences...
“W-, Wait! Wait a moment! Ojousama is already the head of the Vlad House! Can you even marry into somebody else’s family?”
『There are no problems. The vampire race is a long-lived race, so as the family head on paper, I can give birth to a successor, and have that child inherit the position instead. That’s why there isn’t a problem with marrying you, Oniichan. Okaasama has already approved.』
SUGOI, the prep has already been dealt with?
TL Note : idc about any of the other s.h.i.+t on this page or series, but if you change ‘SUGOI’, Ishman, I am never helping with Gunota again. - Este
And so, Ojousama and Snow began to talk amicably.
It seems that the two of them are deciding on the timetable and rules for our newlywed life.
Since the two of them seem to be having fun, it would be tasteless for me to say anything more.
And moreover, Ojousama――now my wife, Chrisse, was truly happy. I love her too after all, and I cherish her. She gets along with Snow, too.
And so I was able to gain a brilliant sniper as my second wife.
