165 CHAPTER XIII ARRIVAL OF Sister 1 (2/2)

While I was in a headlock, I continued my conversation with my sister.

It's not important that I'm in a headlock, but why she came to me.

If she was an assassin sent by Mom who found out that I had broken my promise and gone to the Devil's Forest, I had to get out of there as soon as possible.

We're on vacation. I was actually going to spend some time in the imperial capital for my coming-of-age party, but it's not really in a celebratory mood right now, is it?

Oh, by the way, Sis, you're almost an adult now .

I totally forgot to mention ...... even if it's a slip of the tongue.

But you can't have a ...... party because a lot of people have died.

Well, you're right. ....... Does that mean your sister's coming-of-age party was canceled?

They're not canceling it, they're postponing it. They want to do it with the wedding next year.

'Yeah. ....... Hmm?　A wedding!

Sis, are you getting married?

You haven't heard anything about my sister. I heard every word about Leo from my mother. Your lovely wives are more important to you than your sister anyway. ......

My sister, who was in a bad mood at my words, increased the force of the headlock even more.

”I'm sorry. I'm sorry!

”Uh-huh. Just kidding. By the way, I married Bart. Let's see, ...... the eldest son of the Lefebvre family, who was the president of the aristocratic school, if you remember.

Oh, you're such a, um, serious guy.

I remember you covering for me when I was being ridiculed for my creation magic.

Yeah. I remember that. That's good~. You got your love right, Chairman.

'What?　Since when did you know the chairman liked me?

'What?　On the other hand, when did your sister find out?　I've known about it since the first few days of school, you know?

Freshman party.

What?　It's been that long!

What's the reaction?　Maybe you didn't realize it yet at the time?

Are you kidding me?　Didn't you realize that the chairman was being so blatantly obvious to you?

And I don't blame you.　I was still loving Leo back then.

Even though it was proudly proclaimed that he was a bra-con: .......

'So when did the chairman confess to you?'

Well, uh, ...... last year or so.

Wait, last year?

So that's where your sister found out about the chairman's feelings?

'Yes, yes ......'

Dude . Seriously? .......

'I don't know about the chairman who has been with you for that long and didn't confess until recently, but ...... your sister is terrible too.

Go easy on him.

How long have you been with him?

'I don't blame you!　Bart was so close to me that I didn't look at him as if I liked him or anything!　What's wrong?

Yes, no: ......

Don't get upset because you won't be able to say anything back.

Well, I see what you're saying.

It's just a common pattern with childhood friends.

Instead, you need to introduce me to your wives!　I know we're all here!

Hey, hey!　Oh, he's gone.

I released the headlock and she went off to Elsie's side without hearing me.

All right, I'll go after her.

Oh, it's nice to meet you. My name is Elsie. ......

Don't be so intimidated. Elsie, you're older than me, aren't you?　Let's talk about it casually.

By the time I caught up with her, Elsie had started to introduce herself.

So, Elsie is older than you. Elsie will be 17 this year, so she's one year older than you.

''Yes, yes ......

Yeah. Cute.

Sis hugged Elsie as she said that.

Hmm?　Elsie's older than you, right?　Sis, you want me to feel free to talk to you, don't you?

I couldn't help but want to complain about my sister's high-handed behavior.

''Huh?　Where are the other kids?　Sherry, Leena, Belle, and Lou?

'Well, ...... I'm at Dan...not now, I'm at the Knights' training grounds.

I almost answered honestly that it was a dungeon, but I managed to fool myself .

If I talked about building a dungeon, there's a good chance I'd end up talking about going to the Demon Forest .

''Oh, you're a great wife, working for your future husband. You take good care of her, okay?

Ummm, yeah, .......

Well, maybe you don't care about the Devil's Forest.

Well, I guess we'll just have to wait until we get back to see you four.

Yeah. Anyway, Sis. Just in case you're wondering how long you're going to be here?

You've come all the way from a long way, and I'm sure you'll stay and go, but how many days do you plan to stay at ......?

About a week?

'Well?　Until it's all right?　I have excellent grades, so I don't have to worry about credits, and I can stay for a while when school is back in session, okay?

Yeah, right. ....... Take your time.

You'll be here for more than a month at ...... until you feel better, or maybe even longer.

'Yeah!　Well then, why don't you show me the room I'm staying in?

'Yes, yes ......'

I silently led my sister to the visitor's room.

It's always been hard to disobey my sister and mom. .......
