Volume 8 - CH 42

Akechi Hideyori feels Proud

“That said, this is my first time at Myacdonald’s! *WakuWakuWakuWaku*”

(TLN: Reminder, Risa is the type to say Waku Waku out loud)

“It is…….?”

“Yes! I saw the commercials before but I’ve never visited one!”

.

.

Come to think of it, I’ve never visited a Myacdonald’s with Takeru either huh……..

I mostly eat at Myacdonald’s by myself after all.

.

.

“Have you never visited one with Emi before?”

“We usually go to Miss Donuts. It’s really my first time here!”

“Hmmm.”

.

.

To me, it’s just a typical burger joint but since the Juumonjis seem to be quite a well-off family, they probably don’t usually visit a place regular people go to huh?

.

.

“Wow! The buns and steak are so fresh! Maybe I should let Nii-san try one next time!?”

“Eh? Aren’t you two in a middle of a fight?”

“Ahem…..I will give Takeru the pickles, the hamburger is mine.”

“What kind of demon are you……..”

.

.

As though she just remembered her fight with her brother, Risa forced herself to be mean.

.

.

“That’s right! What do you usually do when you get in a fight with Seiko-san?”

“A fight with Seiko huh?”

“Rather, have you two ever quarreled before?”

“Of course.”

“Eh!? Akechi-kun also gets into quarrels!? What kind of fight did you have with her!?”

.

.

While sipping on my coke, I think back to the fight I had with Seiko.

If I remember correctly, it was about StarCha.

.

.

“There’s this one time I brought up whether black or yellow underwear would suit StarCha better, I told her that black is definitely better then she started looking at me like I’m some kind of garbage and stopped talking to me for a while.”

“That’s 100 percent your fault, Akechi-kun.”

“Uu….. Yamamoto brought it up at school first, so it just slipped out when I was talking with Seiko…….”

.

.

I think this happened when we went to buy Takeru’s birthday present together.

I honestly thought that I would lose my big brother’s dignity back then.

.

A few days after that, Nodoka messaged me [Rejoice, Scumbag-senpai! Sei-chan just bought herself some black erotic underwear!]. When that message came through, I felt so embarrassed that I didn’t reply and just left the message as READ.

.

.

“Doesn’t Risa usually talk about that with Takeru?”

“……..”

“Risa?”

“……….at my place, Nii—…..Takeru and I do all our laundry together so, Nii–……Takeru has seen all my underwear……..”

“Wait, what kind of siblings are you!? Also, you don’t have to force yourself to call him Takeru anymore! Just call him Nii-san like you usually do!”

“What kind……, I don’t think that Akechi-kun has the right to ask me that though…….”

.

.

It seems we both have complicated sibling relationships.

But, as expected of the Galge Protagonist.

To think that he’s been keeping track of his sister’s underwear. This guy’s amazing.

.

.

“But what’s up with the Juumonji family, seriously? What about your parents?”

“Ahh…..I think they hate me……”

“Eh?”

.

.

Risa’s reply suddenly got dark so I was left speechless.

I always chalk it up as a perk of being the protagonist but from Takeru and Risa’s perspective, there seems to be a proper reason why their parents are never at home.

.

.

“A, Ahh!! It’s just compared to Nii-san okay? Compared to him, our parents just don’t care much about me……”

“Is that so? Is it because…….”

“Yes. I think it’s because of my Gift. I have to live away from them because of it.”

.

.

Risa’s Gift.

The Devs said that they would like to go into it someday but in the end, they never really did anything with it.

Even if I want to step in, as long as I’m not willing to tell her about my Gift, I have no right to do that…….

.

.

“Risa, do you know what Takeru’s Gift is?”

“Not at all. He probably doesn’t know what it is himself you know.”

“I see……”

“It’s just, for some reason, I just feel that my Gift doesn’t work on Nii-san so it’s probably something along that line. He might just be that insensitive toward it though…..”

.

.

She at least has some ideas about Takeru’s constitution huh…..

.

.

“Then why don’t you tell him something like [Maybe Gifts just don’t work on you?].”

.

.

That way, he would finally notice his Gift.

.

.

“I’ve told him something like that before but he only said [Nah, it’s just a coincidence]. Seriously, he’s just as dense as you, Akechi-kun.”

.

.

Risa started drinking her tea with a straw.

.

.

That guy really is useless huh…….

…..rather, eh? There’s no way I, who have been nicknamed Cutter, would be that dense right?

.

.

“Ahh! I just can’t stand Nii-san anymore! He always hides those obscene books under his bed and uses a dictionary cover to camouflage his magazines! That pervert devil!”

“That guy is more of a dragon than a devil so calling him a pervert dragon would be more accurate okay.”

“What? Pervert dragon…..?”

.

.

He’s a guy who willingly named himself the Siscon Dragon instead of the Siscon Devil after all……

.

.

“Ahh, this cheeseburger is great! *HAMU* *HAMU*.”

Visual aid

.

.

Risa happily stuffed her face with the cheeseburger.

By the way, I’m having Big Myac.

.

.

“I want to try the fries too, this place doesn’t have chopsticks?”

“A hamburger joint usually doesn’t offer chopsticks, you know.”

“Eh!? But our fingers would get dirty right!?”

“You can pick it up with the napkin though?”

“But that’s bad manners……”

.

.

Risa sadly stared at the fries.

Well, it’s certainly troublesome to wash your hands before and after eating fries…….

.

.

“Ahh, why won’t Nii-san just disappear I wonder……..”

“Risa, if Takeru hears you say that he will cry you know…….”

“He’s a siscon after all.”

“Said a brocon.”

“Those words would apply to Akechi-kun and Seiko-san too right.”

“………is Seiko really a brocon though?”

“She has the same smell as me so she’s definitely a brocon. Also, since Akechi-kun’s is just like Nii-san’s, you’re a siscon too.”

“…….Hehe, brocon huh.”

“…….So talking about Seiko-san with Akechi-kun is the right call huh.”

.

.

I feel prouder to know that Seiko is a brocon.

We get along so well after all.

I open the box and take out my Big Myac.

It’s time for me to enjoy my burger.

.

.

.

“Ah!? Hideyori-san! Risa too, what a coincidence!”

“Eh?”

“Ah, Towa-san!?”

.

.

Eien-chan was standing in front of our seat with a tray in her hands.

And there’s also another person with her.

.

.

“Hey, if it isn’t Hideyori. Good evening.”

“Mitsuki…..?”

.

.

.

Mitsuki also has a tray in her hands.

……..the duo that I would never ever expect to see at a Myac.

.

.

“Since we are here, mind if we join you, Risa?”

“Of course. And she is…….?”

“I’m Fukamori Mitsuki. You must be Towa’s friend, right? Please treat me well.”

.

.

Saying so, Mitsuki sat next to Risa and Eien-chan plopped down beside me.

.

.

“What a coincidence isn’t it, Hideyori-san!?”

“Y, Yeah.”

.

.

Recently Eien-chan has been teasing me a lot so I’ve been scared of being around her since I can’t help but become conscious of her.

Ahh, maybe Eien-chan does like me? With that kind of expectation in mind, my heart just started pounding.

Eien-chan’s shampoo, the smell of her makeup, her hair, everything is to my liking after all.

TLN: Here come the new Challengers!!
