Chapter 5 << | index | >> Epilogue 1


Location: Tori’s house (drawing room)





Tori: Migyaaah!?


Yuzuru: .....!? What happened, bocchama? Aah, I apologize for taking my eyes off of you; did you burn yourself while pouring tea!?


Tori: N-no! I, um, was hungry so I nibbled on a madeleine, but.... It was really spicy!

Like the stuff Yuuta always eats!


Yuzuru: Did you say nibbled?


Tori: Ah, no! Don’t worry, a noble wouldn’t do such a thing!

But right now, I’m a servant; I took a madeleine because there was a letter that said, “Dear Servants, please enjoy this together ♪”~!?


Yuzuru: Please calm down, bocchama. I do not understand what you are saying.

(Hm.... A prank to make the servants eat incredibly spicy madeleines.

How elaborate; there are traps set up all around the house.

Anzu-san was making so many mistakes because of these sorts of traps.

As far as I know... There was lubricating oil on the dishes that Anzu-san broke, so they were easy to drop, and.

The grass in the yard was knotted together to trip people up.

This was why even someone like Anzu-san made mistake after mistake.

Well, these are just silly pranks, but it does seem like things have gone a bit too far.

Goodness..... Imouto-gimi certainly is troublesome. She probably intends to chase Anzu-san out with these pranks, but.

It is not as if I do not understand her feelings. At one point, I too boiled with anger at how bocchama was so attached to Anzu-san.

But one must not cause trouble for others. People will question the dignity of the Himemiyas.

I will get in touch with imouto-gimi’s direct servant, and have them admonish her)


Tori: Yu-Yuzuru~? Don’t get lost in your thoughts; give me some water! I feel like I’m going to breathe fire!


Yuzuru: You were punished for small-mindedly nibbling on the food lying around. Reflect on your actions, Tori.


Tori: Wh-why am I being scolded? I’m a victim!

Damn it~, I don’t know who’s responsible for this, but I’m mad! I’m going to find the culprit and make them pay!


Yuzuru: I will deal with that problem, so.....

Bocchama, make sure to properly serve Anzu-san; you ought to complete the tasks that you yourself decided to take on.


Tori: I-I get it~. Uu, I embarrassed myself in front of Anzu.


Tsukasa: Hello? Hello~, is anyone home?


Tori: Nn? This voice is.... Geh, Tsukasa!?


Tsukasa: What do you mean, “Geh;” I suppose one might call this the pinnacle of vulgarity.

Ah, or perhaps it was my mistake to expect proper manners from a nouveau riche?


Tori: You piss me off with every word~! Where’d you come from, you moldy family of antiques!


Tsukasa: What? Do you intend to insult my family? I generously let it slide up till now, thinking it was merely childish nonsense, but....

This is the last straw; I challenge you to a duel.


Yuzuru: Oh my.... I apologize for rudely failing to welcoming you. Do you have business with this family, Suou’s bocchama?


Tsukasa: Why, thank you for your greeting. I do wish you would stop calling me Suou’s bocchama, but. I have said this several times already, so I will not repeat myself.

Persistently nagging about small details would bring my magnanimity into question, after all.


Tori: Hh~mph ♪ You say that even though you repeat the same thing every time you meet him~, you say that even though you’re sooo frustrated! Trying to keep up appearances, huh, stu~pid, stu~pid ☆


Tsukasa: ...Fushimi-senpai, may I end the Himemiya bloodline here and now?


Yuzuru: Please calm down, Suou’s bocchama.

Even if you get rid of Tori, there is still his imouto-gimi; furthermore, it is inelegant to act on the spur of the moment.

In truth, I feel the same way once in a while, but... A true gentleman suppresses his anger.


Tsukasa: Guh.... I suppose I have no choice; I will show deference to my club’s senpai.

Fufu. I have no plans until tonight, so I thought I might as well come see onee-sama.....

I came all the way to this distasteful nouveau riche mansion just for that ♪


Tori: Yuzuru~, bring me Papa’s hunting gun! I’m going to put an end to this line of ancients that pathetically survived till now!


Tsukasa: Claiming that you can do what you cannot is proof that you are a fool.

Suou is a military family; we are not a bloodline that can be ended by a fattened-up pig.


Tori: Hah? Your antiquity is all you can boast~; the dinosaurs have gone extinct, you know!


Yuzuru: (Ah... I had enough of a headache already, but things have gotten even more chaotic.

What shall I do. I am already quite tired of everything.)
