Chapter 1267. Rivalry in Love / Inside one’s Heart
「 Anyway, our parents taught us that the Kouzuki house is a huge and scary family ever since childhood 」
Mariko speaks, representing the young ladies.
「 To be precise, Kouzuki, Kaan, and Kanou, they tell us not to be rude at them 」
Mariko looks at Sakurako.
「 Kanou house is like that right now, but still, if anyone underestimates the Kanou house on public, the Kouzuki and Kaan house will scold them 」
They’re the top three among the noble families.
Kanou house is currently on the brink of collapsing but Kouzuki and Kaan house are in stable status.
Kanou house has been able to maintain its family status with the support of the Kouzuki and Kaan house.
「 That’s right, Kaan-sama and Kouzuki-sama are really scary! 」
Erica said.
「 They’re family with a long history, overcame the Meiji restoration and the turmoil of the post-war era, and they still stand stall as the center of the nobility 」
They’re the house that leads the nobility.
「 Many fear Kouzuki-sama and Kaan-sama 」
「 Yes 」
「 It is as you say 」
Mariko said. Arisu from the Kurama house and Karen from the Mizushima house nodded to her.
Both of them are living with us because Jii-chan told them to.
Even if they’re from the nobility, their status is lower and so they can’t defy the head of the Kouzuki house.
「 For someone who says she’s afraid, Mariko, aren’t you Kaan Momoko-neechan’s protege? 」
I asked.
「 Well, that’s because Momoko-oneesama is indifferent.\ It’s fun to be with her. Besides, everyone’s afraid of her that nobody approaches Momoko-oneesama, see? That’s why I thought I might be able to become friends with her 」
Mariko said.
I remember when Momoko-neechan first appeared during the garden party in the Kouzuki mansion.
True, Momoko-neechan’s emitting such an overly flashy aura that’s too unique and overwhelming to the young ladies of nobility.
But, Momoko-neechan is enjoying that atmosphere, she doesn’t seem to hate it.
She feels like someone who finds fun in the flashiness.
「 Kaan Momoko-sama’s enjoying the idea that she’s the Queen among the young ladies of nobility 」
Erica said.
「 Yes, but the truth is she’s sad. Even if she’s the Queen, her kingdom only has Yamada Umeko-san, her servant. But, since Momoko-oneesama lived like that since she was born, she doesn’t realize that she’s lonely
Mariko said.
「 That’s why I thought I could easily become her little sister. She really needs more friends who she can open her heart to 」
That might be.
The other girls are looking at the Queen only from afar.
They fear that they’re not allowed to approach, or become friends with her.
「 I want Momoko-oneesama to become Kou’s woman sooner. If she has our family, the Momoko-oneesama’s loneliness will go away 」
Mariko’s inviting Momoko-neechan every opportunity she has.
「 Well, it’s just a matter of time. What’s left is for Momoko-oneesama or Kou, whoever becomes honest first 」
「 Me? 」
I ask Mariko back in surprise.
「 Yes, what do you think of Momoko-oneesama, Kou? 」
Well…
「 Then, let’s change the question. Kou, do you want to have sex with Momoko-oneesama? 」
I recall the body line of Momoko-neechan
She has elegant and long legs and a mature body.
「 Don’t you want Momoko-oneesama’s virginity? Don’t you want Momoko-oneesama to bear your child? 」
I…
「 Yeah, I want to have sex with her. I want to take her virginity. I want Momoko-neechan to bear my child 」
I replied honestly.
「 Then, act sooner! I’ll help you however I can! 」
Mariko smiled.
「 If Kaan-sama is in this place, then I’ll definitely join Sakurako-sama’s group! 」
「 Me too 」
Arisu and Karen said.
「 Misuzu’s scary, Momoko-neechan’s scary, but you girls are not afraid of Sakurako? 」
I asked the two.
「 Well, about that… 」
「 Sakurako-sama has always been kind 」
Even if Sakurako’s a young lady of the Kanou house, one of the big three families…
She lives while being considerate to the other young ladies of nobility, and students of that school.
If not, she can’t survive in the school for the young ladies as a daughter of a family with high status, helped by the Kouzuki and Kaan house.
「 So you say, but I’m still a newcomer to this mansion 」
Sakurako’s confused.
「 I’m not good at leading groups, and I don’t want to be in conflict with Kouzuki Misuzu-sama nor Kaan Momoko-sama 」
Sakurako’s parent house, Kanou house, has Sakurako’s father, the head of the family confined, her mother’s house, Kanzaki house, and Mariko’s house is working together to restore the Kanou house.
Jii-chan and Kaan-san are planning from behind the scenes.
Meaning, Sakurako can’t defy the Kouzuki or Kaan house if she considers the Kanou house.
「 But, we don’t want to become vassals of Kouzuki Misuzu-sama or Kaan Momoko-sama in this mansion 」
「 We can’t let the Kouzuki and Kaan house take us 」
Arisu and Karen said.
「 Though it has collapsed, I’m still a daughter of the Kurama house 」
「 Me too, I still have my pride as the daughter of the Mizushima house 」
I see.
Even if their status is lower than the Kouzuki or Kaan house, they are still from the nobility.
No matter how high the status Kouzuki and Kaan house have, they don’t want to be vassals under their rule.
「 I’m not from the nobility, but I’m bad at dealing with Misuzu-sama and Kaan-sama. I feel like if I group up with them, I’ll just bow my head to Misuzu-sama or Kaan-sama all the time
Erica said.
「 Although, if she comes here, Momoko-oneesama will only have Yamada-san in her group, so I’ll have to join her as someone who referred her 」
Mariko said with a wry smile.
「 IF that’s the case, Misuzu’s group only has Michi on her side, right? 」
I said.
「 Huh, but Shou-oneesama and Reika-oneesama are with her 」
Mariko said loudly.
「 Kouzuki SS, are still vassals of the Kouzuki house 」
Oh, so that’s how she views that.
「 Ruriko-sama is in Katsuko-san’s group, so doesn’t that mean that Misuzu-sama’s the top of the Kouzuki group? 」
Erica asks me.
That’s how the students of the school for the young ladies see it.
It hasn’t been long since Erica came to our place so she doesn’t know much about the relationship between our family.
「 I now get the gist of the problem 」
Yeah.
This fall, the girls who joined our family…
The students of the school for the young ladies are wary of Misuzu.
That’s because they’ve been under thorough education since childhood that they should not be disrespectful to the Kouzuki house or they will crush them, and so they’re conscious of the daughter of the Kouzuki house.
Furthermore, Ruriko, the other daughter of the Kouzuki house, is doing housework together with Katsuko-nee, Mana, and Megu in the mansion.
Their cautiousness around her has diminished.
The third daughter of the Kouzuki house, Yoshiko-san has returned to her life as Ruriko’s attendant, and so their guard has lifted against her.
As a result, their guard against Ruriko and Yoshiko-san has consolidated around Misuzu, the fearsome image of the Kouzuki house.
That same big image of the Kouzuki house, or Jii-chan holds.
「 Oh, I see 」
「 What’s up, Nobu? 」
Kana-senpai asks me.
「 Well, I just had an idea 」
Half a year ago, during the consecutive holidays, there was a dance presentation from the young ladies of nobility.
After Misuzu, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san, the audience had a heavy response.
The audience seats have only people from the nobility, and yet…
They don’t know how to react with the young ladies of the Kouzuki house, or should I say that they’re afraid, and that’s why they couldn’t react.
That was the normal response towards the young ladies of the Kouzuki house.
It might be rude to praise, them so they can’t do anything.
That’s how much they fear the Kouzuki house.
「 Kana-senpai and Marika is looking at Misuzu through Mariko and Erica’s eyes 」
If their close friend, or sister, is afraid of Misuzu, then Kana-senpai and Mariko will feel the influence, even if they’re not related to the nobility, nor students of the school for the young ladies.
As expected, they also fear Misuzu.
「 Something like that 」
Meaning, Mariko and Erica, Arisu, and Karen can’t turn over the image they have for Misuzu, and then…
Misuzu’s getting alienated inside the family further.
That’s definitely not good.
「 Let’s end that topic here for now, Kou 」
Mariko unbuttons her pajamas.
「 Tonight is our welcome party for Sakurako. Sakurako has to postpone until morning, but we’ll teach Sakurako a lot about sex 」
「 Since this is the ceremony on forming Sakurako-sama’s group, then we’ll show Sakurako-sama how Kuromori-sama violates us 」
Saying that Erica begins taking off her clothes.
「 Well, let’s begin 」
◇ ◇ ◇
「 By the way, you can’t take it all by yourself. It’s better to give just glimpses to Nobu to get him horny and come after you 」
Kana-senpai said.
「 Just take off your pants, open the buttons above, and show your cleavage. Also, let your panties appear from time to time, see? 」
「 I see. Kana. So you can do it like that too 」
Mariko’s impressed.
They all took off their pajamas and exposed their legs.
Sitting down on the spacious bed, their white panties are visible from the hem of their shirt.
They opened the top that their breasts are peeking through.
「 But still 」
I still am caught in the fact that the girls are afraid of Misuzu.
「 Is nobody afraid of me? 」
I’m a man.
I took the virginity of all the girls in here, but…
Kana-senpai, Arisu, and Karen, it’s basically rape with them.
「 Huh, why? 」
Mariko asks with a blank look.
「 Why would we be afraid of Kou? 」
Well, but…
「 At first, it was a bit scary 」
Karen speaks embarrassed.
「 But, it’s no longer scary now 」
「 Me too, I’m not afraid of Kuromori-sama 」
Arisu said.
「 Misato-oneesama, Mitama, Kinuka, and I know that Kuromori-sama have taken great pains to ensure that we achieve our best form 」
「 Marika-oneesama and I were saved too 」
Erica smiled.
「 We’re thankful 」
Her elder sister, Marika, said.
「 I mean, ever since I started having sex with Nobu, I started feeling scared of other men 」
Kana-senpai?
「 Now that I know the physiological senses of the boys, I can see it clearly. Like when in school, I find a guy looking at me lewdly. They look at my breasts, legs, or butt, I can tell where their gazes go. That’s why I’m talking less to men other than Nobu. I feel disgusted by them 」
「 Oh, I can understand that 」
Mariko too?
「 I think I’m bad at dealing with men either. I don’t like the sticky gazes they’re showing 」
「 Well, I also look at Mariko and the girls with lewd eyes 」
I said.
「 That’s okay. We’re your women after all, Kou 」
「 Yes, you can look at us lewdly. I mean, don’t just look, push us down. Have as much sex with us as you want 」
Mariko and Kana-senpai are provoking me.
「 Nobu, you’re different from other men. How do I say this? Your gaze is straightforward. Oh, I get it. Nobu doesn’t look down on women. The boys at our school basically think that women are much more stupid than them. They think that they can fool them easy, and so they’re showing off disgustingly 」
「 That’s right, Kou doesn’t purposely try to show off. You don’t even speak flattery or complements just to make us feel better. That’s why we can trust what you say. Kou won’t speak nonsense lies. That’s what’s great about you 」
I…
「 That’s right, Kuromori-sama’s so straightforward 」
Erica said.
「 And if you don’t understand something, you don’t pretend that you do. When you don’t get it, you show it in your face. You don’t pretend to be smart and appeal to girls that way, see? 」
「 Well, I’m not the brightest after all 」
I admit.
「 No, just because I’m slow doesn’t mean that I give up on trying to understand. I’m really slow, and so I take more time to process, but I listen to what everyone says, try to think hard with my lacking brain and try to understand somehow. I have to keep trying because if I give up, it’s over for me. Well, I’m not that bright, and so I think that I’m causing everyone trouble, but still 」
「 That’s not true 」
Arisu said.
「 I think that Kuromori-sama’s very wise 」
「 Right. You’re not smart, but you’re definitely not dumb either. Nobu’s quite persevering 」
Kana-senpai praised me.
「 It’s amazing that you can withstand Ai’s speed. Most of the people talking to Ai just cut off the conversation because they get angry that she’s slow, saying “Okay, that’s enough,” and that’s why many of the boys think that Ai is dumb 」
Ai is just a slow thinker, but she’s quite smart.
She’s been thinking a lot, and lately, she’s been creating new pastries out of her ideas.
「 Men usually get angry when things don’t go their way, and yet, Nobu’s trying to adjust to each of our paces 」
「 I don’t think that’s worthy of praise, I just do what I can 」
I don’t think that’s anything special.
「 Nobu’s amazing for thinking that’s normal. That’s why you are everyone’s Nobu 」
「 Kou accepts us with welcome arms, and even Misuzu-sama and Ruriko-sama 」
Mariko said.
「 You’re not scary. Rather, you make us feel at ease. We know that Kou will never betray us 」
「 That’s right. We don’t trust whatever Kouzuki-sama or Kaan-sama says. But, we can trust Kuromori-sama 」
Sakurako said.
「 I didn’t come here because I believed in Kaan-sama or Kouzuki-sama. I believe in Kuromori-sama 」
「 Me too 」
「 Me too 」
Sakurako said. Arisu and Karen followed.
「 If not for Kuromori-sama, I would still be crying from anxiety every day 」
Karen said, but…
No, wait a moment.
「 That’s where you’re wrong. Karen feels at ease because of Agnes and Luna, they were smiling kindly to you every day, right? That’s not me. Also, Katsuko-nee and Mana give you delicious food, and everyone in the family’s doing a lot for you. I’m not doing anything special 」
I only survived thanks to everyone’s help.
「 Kuromori-sama, that’s where you’re wrong 」
Erica said.
「 Agnes-san and everyone can only smile because Kuromori-sama is there. That’s why they can laugh 」
「 It’s Kou who’s in the middle of us 」
The half-naked girls have surrounded me before I noticed.
「 Well, who will you do it with tonight, Kou? 」
Sakurako. Arisu. Karen.
Marika, Erica.
Mariko, and Kana-senpai.
They all look at me with a gentle smile.
