135 Episode 135 "Cheat Wifes Wifes Top Secret Mission (and Pajamas Party)".txt (1/2)

From the point of view of the Allusuban clan, including Aine.

It was the night of the day when Rita was teaching Cutlass in a nearby village.

Aine, Iris, and Raphilia were in the middle of the 'Master will be back tomorrow for a commemorative pajama party' in their room at the Ilgafa lord's house.

''But. It was fine to let Iris-san and Rafilia-san enjoy themselves alone.

Aine was sitting on a chair in Iris's room, in her nightgown.

She looked at the window many times, as if she was curious about her house - Nagi's house to be precise - or maybe she was curious about her own house - Nagi's house.

''It's because Aine has to clean the house and get ready to receive Nah-kun.

Aine said, as if she couldn't bear it any longer.

'Of course, we'll be back as soon as we need to. ─ Of course, I will be back as soon as I need to be. You never know when they will make a move.

No, sir, that's not allowed.

Iris, who sat on the bed, and Raphilia, who rolled next to her and relaxed too much, spoke in unison.

'My brother has also told me to be careful, 'You have a tendency to work too much, sister,'

'You're off until you get home,' the master said.

......, nah.

”'You know your sister too well, don't you!

────!

Aine's face turns bright red as her mind is read.

Aine feels as if she is always connected to 'Naya-kun' because of her 'soul engagement'. It's a good thing that you can't get away from the fact that it's so easy to understand that Iris and Rafilia can read your mind. The big sister's position is in trouble.

Aine unintentionally reaches for the 'hagane mop' propped up against the wall of her room. That's right. I'm going to clean up and calm down. From now on, if you polish up your room to a sparkling shine...

Speaking of which, I was hoping to ask Aine how to ”engage the spirit.

Mr. Rafilia!

Aine was about to run off to work when Raphilia came after her.

''I would love to see Iris as well.

Iris has gotten up from the bed before I know it, too, and is sitting back down by Aine's side. By virtue of their position in the Ilgafa lord's house, Aine and Rafilia are personally hired maids, and Iris is their employer.

However, as soon as the three of them were left alone, Aine was Iris's senior slave and Rafilia was quickly transformed into her teacher. Iris sits squarely at Aine's feet, as if she's asking her teacher to teach her a lesson.

''Iris-chan......, you know what? ...... Well, I think you should wear the right size pajamas.''

Aine unintentionally mentions another subject in an attempt to divert the conversation.

Iris prefers to wear a stubby nightgown, which is two sizes too big for her. It's two sizes too big, and it's forced to be fastened with an obi. Because of that, the chest is wide open, and when you look directly up, you can see all the way down to the chest. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work for you, but I'm not sure I'd be able to do that in front of Nei-kun.

...... If the clothes are tightened up, I feel like they will stop your growth.

Iris held her chest and murmured.

'And when it comes time for big brother to 'rebuild' or 'soul promise', I want to make sure that I have immediate access to Iris' magic. But if you ...... can teach me how to successfully offer ...... big brother a 'soul promise', I can make it a little smaller nightie.

Iris looked at Aine with a smile on her mouth.

As expected of Iris-chan...... Aine almost clapped her hands together.

He used Aine's words in reverse, trying to divert the conversation. I'm leading you to talk about the ”soul engagement”. Master said that ”Iris is a better schemer than me,” but it's true.

I can't compete ── Aine thinks.

I'm sure. Aine is everyone's big sister, after all.

Even if you're embarrassed - even if you're embarrassed ...... if you want to know something about Iris and Rafilia ...... if you want to know anything about Aine's sisters, you have to tell them... ....

Then I'll tell you ....... What happened when Aine and Naya-kun made a 'soul agreement': ......

Yes! Please!

Next to Iris is Raphilia, sitting upright next to Iris before she knows it. You don't have to get down on your knees, Aine, stop it.

I remember. I told her to go swimming, that day.

It's a good thing that you're not a swimmer, but you've left your strength behind and asked Naya-kun for a 'soul promise'.

''Kohon.''

Aine is trying to cover up the fact that she's turning bright red, and she pouts.

And when she was about to start talking - when....

”There's someone coming this way...

Raphilia looked up unexpectedly.

Aine also noticed. I don't have the 'presence of mind' skill, but I can tell because I hear footsteps.

I'm sure you'll be able to find it.

Aine reflexively grabbed the 'hagane mop'. Raphilia shoves her hands under her nightgown and grabs her freshly undressed underwear. She touches the 'Elder Slime' that mimics a hairpiece. Iris waits behind Aine and Raphilia.

As the three of them waited breathlessly, there was a knock at the door.

''I apologize for the nighttime. Iris-sama!

What I heard was a high-pitched voice.

It sounded familiar. As I recall, it's a side servant of Royeld-Hafeumea, the candidate for the next lord, Royeld-Hafeumea. A grown-up maid who came to serve him from her former home and is still at his side. So is that ...... the one you are with?

Aine turned around and saw Iris nod.

─ There was a movement.

Even the three of them didn't stay up until this time just for the pajama party.

The other reason is that whoever was controlling the ”Knight Ghost” did something, they had to react quickly.

''All right. Please open the door, Lady Aine.

I know.

Aine hid her weapon behind her back and opened the door.

'...... Iris-sama is about to go to bed. Who is it?

My Lord says he would like to speak with you, Mr. Iris.

With that, the petite maid bowed her head.

Behind her was still the incoming Lord Royeld-Hafeumea.

He shrugged apologetically and turned his gaze to Iris in the room.

''I'm sorry for the late night. ''Priestess of the Sea Dragon,''

What's going on here? Mr. Royeld.

Iris was covered in her gown before she knew it.

No wonder. There was no way she was going to show her skin to anyone but her master and her fellow slaves.

'Iris and the others are just having a meeting before an important ceremony. How would it be unwise for the incoming lord to make a fuss unnecessarily?''

That's good, Iris-chan──, Aine nodded secretly.

Indeed, Aine and the others were talking about an 'important ceremony'. It's nothing to do with the lord's house, though.

”The retired knight Galungara-sama, who was useful to me, has disappeared.

The maid girl replied in place of the gloomy Roield, ''I heard that they took away the candlesticks, jars and other furnishings of the lord's house.

At that time, he took away the candlesticks and vases - the furnishings of the lord's house. Have you seen him anywhere else, Iris and the others?　If you have any ideas as to why they are gone, please visit .......

............ No.

Iris shook her head.

Aine and Raphilia followed suit.

Of course, it was a lie.

Iris and the others have already heard from retired knight Galungara about the ghosts of the knights attacking the new knights. Galungara was jokingly talking about it, but the message from Nagi has already confirmed that it's true.

And Nagi and the others had completely defeated the 'Black Knight' who was revived together with the 'Knight Ghost'. On the contrary, the new slave, Cutlass (Fynn), completely destroyed the jutsu itself by taking control of the Black Knight's armor.

We don't know what happened to the rest of the Knight Ghosts. But if the jutsu was broken, then it must have had some effect on the sorcerer.

It was quite possible that the retired knight Galungara would react to that and take action.

Aine and the others were prepared for that.

'............ If it were true, we would have wanted to catch and interrogate him, but ......

Iris murmured aloud.

Right now, just before the adoption rituals of the Ilgafa Lordship family take place. Everyone's attention is focused on Royeld, and Galungara at his side. It was too risky to approach him unobserved, get information out of him, and erase his memory of the interrogation itself with a 'memory wipe'.
