Chapter 315 – A Good Woman (1/2)

「Here, drink, brother.」

In a tatami room, Taiyou and Enya sat across from one another. There was a large boat of sushi as well as other types of food between them,

Enya leaned over the table to pour some sake into Taiyou’s cup.

「But…I’m still underage…」

「Well, then let me have it.」

Kohaku reached out for it with a smile from beside him. She had remained silent while they engaged in serious conversation, and began to speak.

「Are you going to drink, Kohaku?」

「Heh heh heh, I’ve been drinking since before the war.」

「Before the war?」

「Yeah, even though I look like this, I was born before the war. I’m an Eternal Little. And, I happen to be 87 years old!」

「The same age as Akashiro.」

「I have no idea who or what Akashiro is, but yes, I’m that old.」

Enya poured some sake into Kohaku’s cup, and said,

「I thought you were a good woman. With this kid acting like this…I thought there had to be an older woman behind him.」

「Cut it out with the ‘old woman’ remark. Call me a Loli-baba instead.」

「Seems like this woman’s your, buddy.」

Enya stuck up his little finger (meaning Taiyou’s woman), and made an out of date gesture at him. Someone young like Taiyou wasn’t used to seeing it.

「Yeah, you’re right.」

「I know.」

「You know? But Enya, you just asked how old she was…」

「Age has nothing to do with it.」

Enya grinned at him.

「I’ve been watching her the whole time we’ve been talking after all.」

「Have you?」

Taiyou was surprised at looked at Kohaku.

「I always walk three steps behind him, heh heh, I’m a very innocent and kind woman.」

「Do you usually call yourself innocent and kind?」

「My husband knows all about it, he’s proud about it too.」

Kohaku got onto her knees, took the sake flask, and reached out.

「I’ll pour yours.」

「Sure.」

「However, would it really be okay?」

「What would?」

「Me being a brother of yours…you already have so many under you already, right? Can you persuade them about me?」

「Persuade?」

「Pffft!」

Enya laughed while Kohaku spit out a bit of her sake.

Taiyou thought that he might have said something off.

「Ain’t no one in this world that’s gonna question his boss, kid. No way.」

「He’s right. If the boss says something’s black, then even his underlings will say sperm is black…that’s the way this world works.」

「I know what you mean, but please don’t use examples like that.」

「Okay, if the boss says something’s white, then even his underlings will say a niceboard’s blood is white…that’s the way this world works.」

「Sorry, but could you use an example that normal people understand?」

「She’s right, you don’t have to worry about it.」

「I see.」

Taiyou nodded, and understood that there would be no problems.

「You have five women right…some work, kid.」

「You think so?」

「Yeah, eat good food, love good women. It’s what men were meant to do…and that…」

Enya looked at Kohaku, and continued.
