Chapter 1379. School Festival Day 2 / Chest!

Chapter 1379. School Festival Day 2 / Chest!

「 Also, you’re free tomorrow afternoon, right? 」

Minaho-neesan talks to me while we’re watching everyone do their morning workout.

Tomorrow’s a compensatory holiday so we have no classes.

Therefore, we’re also taking a break from making pastry in school.

There will be students doing club activities, but the numbers are few so it’s not good for business.

Also, by night we’ll punish the Mizushima house, the branch family girls who bullied Karen.

「 Yeah, I’m free 」

「 Yoshinobu, no, this is a job for Kou 」

It’s not for the high-school student, Yoshida Yoshinobu, but for Kuromori Kou, the partner of Misuzu, the daughter of the Kouzuki house, the owner of the Kouzuki SS, and the member of the Black Forest.

「 You remember that we took over the Death Star Production’s female talents, right? 」

Oh right, there was that incident where the talents of Death Star Pro harassed Yukino, Eri, and Rie.

Minaho-neesan pressured the Yakuza behind them and made them hand over the female talents as an apology.

「 Oh, that one 」

Whether it’s Yukino or the twins, they will need some staff and a dedicated office that’s familiar with show business if they want to continue working on television in the future.

「 I want you to go to the death star pro tomorrow afternoon. Then we’ll see how we can cede the women’s division and how many people can we use 」

Minaho-neesan speaks to me with a cold expression.

「 We know that death pro isn’t going to give us the entire women’s department as promised. 」 Besides, we don’t want to take the staff and their talents as they are 」

We don’t know the business with entertainers.

「 Of course, you won’t go there alone. You’ll have your bodyguards and Katsuko-san and Shou-san as the adults for negotiation. You can pick whoever you want in the group 」

Who’s suited for checking the inner workings of an entertainment production?

True, even if I go there alone, there won’t be any decent conclusions.

I guess it would be better to bring a guard who’s recognized from their appearance.

Also, Minaho-neesan’s right, I need an adult who can negotiate with the death pro people.

「 Yeah, then Minaho-neesan should come 」

I replied.

「 M-Me? 」

「 We need Minaho-neesan in that kind of work. I’ll think of the other members who’ll go with me but I want Minaho-neesan with us 」

「 I-I still have my work in the new brothel 」

Minaho-neesan said in panic, but…

「 You can let Katsuko-nee or Tamayo-san take care of that, right? It’s just for a few hours tomorrow 」

I said.

「 Minaho-neesan’s new brothel has the former prostitutes cooperating with her. 」

「 Minaho lost, just go with Yoshinobu-kun 」

Margo-san, who had been listening to our conversation while stretching with the martial arts team laughed and said.

「 Okay, I get it. I’ll go 」

Minaho-neesan reluctantly agreed.

Then.

「 Darling, come here 」

Edie calls me.

She’s with the girl assassins group.

「 Also, Motoko, Kurumi, Mitama, and Kinuka 」

Edie calls over the advanced course group.

「 What’s up? 」

I asked Edie while walking then…

「 I just need to let them understand the grounds 」

「 In these girls’ case, they need to understand it with their body 」

Edie and Anya looked at the 8 of the girl assassins who are here and said.

「 Motoko’s got the Kuromiya arts, and Mitama’s got the Anjou arts, right? 」

「 Yes, that’s right, but… 」

「 That’s indeed the case 」

Anya asks, Motoko and Mitama replied.

「 Your styles are old-school, but you have ways to deal with the Jigen-ryu, right? 」

This time, Edie asks.

「 Jigen? Daisuke? 」

As soon as Kinuka asked that, Mitama slammed Kinuka’s head.

「 Of course, Anjou arts have ways to deal with Jigen 」

「 Kuromiya arts also mastered the art of confronting them during the late Edo and Meiji era 」

Mitama and Motoko said.

「 Then this should be fine. Their skills aren’t as refined as the Jigen-ryu 」

Anya said and looked at the foreign girls

「 Motoko, can I borrow your training spear? 」

「 Here 」

Edie took the carbon spear from Motoko, actually, it’s got no spearhead, so it’s just a stick.

She swings it around.

「 Seems good 」

「 Then, I’d like you to have a light fight with these girls, oh, just the younger 」

Anya pointed at Kinuka and Kurumi and said.

「 I think that’ll help them understand better 」

「 I don’t think it’ll satisfy them if they lose to Mitama or Motoko 」

「 These girls only have one-shot-one-kill methods, and once you know that, you can win. Okay? 」

Anya told Kinuka and Kurumi, then Edie told the foreign girls something in French, giving the practice spear that Dolly was carrying.

「 She told them that they’re to fight one of that younger girl over there and show what they’ve got 」

Anya translates for me

However, Dolly refused and told Edie something.

「 Dolly knows her skill so she’s refraining, oh, Anna won’t do it either 」

The leader and her sister refused to fight.

On the other hand, Anne Roze took the spear.

「 She says that she can win against Kinuka 」

Anne Roze came to the joint training this morning so she’s still interested in combat, but she’s a girl who was interested in sex last night.

She checks the weight and balance of the spear, looked at me, and winked.

She’s trying to show off to me by winning against Kinuka.

「 Then, I’ll get you beaten up 」

Anne Roze’s attitude seems to have fired up Kinuka’s fighting spirit.

「 No, Kinuka, don’t beat her up, just end the fight quick 」

I ordered Kinuka.

「 But, Milord 」

「 It’ll hurt Anne Roze if she lost fast. Show her the difference in your skills 」

「 Certainly! 」

And so, the casual match in the courtyard begins.

「 Kinuka-chan, go for it! 」

The other girls stopped their training and watched the match.

「!!! 」

Anne Roze threatens Kinuka with a quick swing of her training spear.

Kinuka remains barehanded and poised with a swoop.

「 Kinuka, use the Anjou Arts secret technique “Crash Chicken Run!” 」

「 I understand, Aneue 」

As usual, you don’t get what the Anjou style move is from the name.

「 Okay, start!! 」

As soon as Anya started the match, Anne Roze rushes forward with all her might, holding her spear.

「 Shishishishi!!! 」

Oh right, they’re assassins so the thought of going easy at the start is out of their mind.

She’s trying to pierce through Kinuka with the spear.

However.

「 Hnyaararararaaa!!! 」

Kinuka makes some weird noise, and then…

She also rushed towards Anne Roze

「!!!!!???? 」

Anne Roze looked confused about Kinuka’s behavior.

That moment;

「 Dajanazan! Wonder Ragitandisker!! 」

Kinuka shouts, dodge Anne Roze’s spear, and sweeps her leg

「!!! 」

Anne Roze is still holding her spear, and she fell to the grass.

Kinuka steps on Anne Roze’s spear.

「 And that’s over! 」

Edie stopped the match.

「 Jigen-ryu is a style where one puts their everything in a single blow, calling it “Ichi no Tachi,” to defeat their opponent. They put their whole energy into Ichi no Tachi. If that’s the case, then Anjou arts’ to break the Qi of the opponent by matching it with their voice, and mow the enemy in one reversal makes it the winner 」

Mitama explains, but…

「 I get about the fighting spirit, but why do they have to make weird noise? 」

「 Jigen-ryu’s main point is to make a loud noise when striking. It’s often said that the voice itself is what overwhelms. That’s why, according to Anjou arts, if you face someone using Jigen Ryu, then you deal with it with even more unintelligible screams 」

No, I don’t think Anne Roze was using Jingen-ryu.

She didn’t even make a weird noise.

「 Of course, in real Jigen-ryu, they also teach a countermeasure if your Ichi no Tachi is dodged. But, these girls aren’t like that. They rely on one-shot-one-kill, and if they fail, they would just die, that’s how they are 」

Anya.

Right, these girl assassins were only given weapons like drill spears or rocket shovels and sent to their targets.

All they have to do is strike a blow to the other party who’s caught off guard by a cute girl.

If their assassination is exposed, then they’ll get shot right away.

Their targets are also underground people so they should have at least a pistol.

Edie talked to the girl assassins.

「 She’s asking if there’s anyone else who wants to fight the other girl 」

Dolly and Anne Roze are the oldest among the girl assassins.

The leader refused, and Anne Roze failed.

The other girls are confused, but…

「!!! 」

The girl Kyouko-san called nervous last night, Clito, has moved forward.

「 She doesn’t get the girl from earlier, but she said that she can win against this one 」

Yeah, Kinuka, or should I say that the Anjuo arts are definitely something incomprehensible to them.

However, Kurumi’s appearance is of a cute girl.

They’re both the same age.

「 Kuromiya arts spear fighter, Mikuriya Kurumi, has come 」

Kurumi holds her training spear and moved forward.

Edie picked up Anne Roze’s spear which she dropped on the lawn and handed it to Clito.

「!!!! 」

Clito checked the spear that Anne Roze was holding earlier.

「 Kurumi, your opponent might be using Jigen-ryu, but their level isn’t that much. You can deal with them with normal techniques 」

「 Yes, Motoko-oneesama 」

Motoko gave Kurumi some advice and she replied.

「 Well then, are you two ready? Fight! 」

Anya called to Kurumi and Clito.

「 Se, shishishi, are!! 」

Clit goes for feints at the start, but as a girl assassin, the only thing she could do is go for one-shot-kill.

「 Shiiii!! Yaaaa!!! 」

She readies her body to strike and thrust her spear at Kurumi.

However.

「 Haiyaaa!!! 」

Kurumi took Clito’s attack head-on.

Clito went in with so much momentum and yet, Kurumi’s feet are still on the ground, unyielding.

「 Haa, hai,, hai, hai!!! 」

On the contrary, she draws her spear quick.

「 Haiyaaaaaa!!! 」

She smoothly disarmed Clito’s spear.

The red training spear flies from Clito’s hand, into the air, spins around, and falls to the grass.

「 Seiiii!! 」

Then, she pushes her spear on Clito’s throat. That’s the end of the match.

「 Okay, that’s over 」

Anya said, Edie started talking to the girl assassins.

「 If it were the actual Jigen-ryu’s Ichi no Tachi then the sword would be heavier, sharper, and faster. I don’t think Kurumi nor I would be able to take it on 」

Motoko explains to me.

「 However, their techniques may be one-shot-kill, but they lack in strength 」

「 Well that’s obvious, they’re all still young, and they’ve relied on their weapons for the strength of their attacks 」

Anya’s right.

So far, they rely on the destructive power of the weapons themselves to do their assassinations, like the drill spears or rocket shovels.

But this is different.

They can’t carry their drill spear or rocket shovels if they’re going to live with us in Japan.

「 Edie’s talking to the girls now, saying that with their weapon of choice so far, it’s over if their first attack fails. If they make their shot with their rocket shovel, that’s over, the gimmick of the drill spear is that they can shoot the tip and retrieve it using the wire, but in a real fight, they’re dead before they could do that 」

The girls are ready to have a tie because their boss has abandoned them.

The thirteen of them survived in such a harsh environment.

But, their assassination skills aren’t enough to survive in the future.

If these girls want to be bodyguards, then…

「 It’s sinking into them, if they lose to Kyouko-sama, Edie, or me, they can let it go, but if they lose to someone younger, like Kinuka, or Kurumi, they’ll start to think twice 」

Anya’s right.

「 Kinosh*ta-san, what’s this? Those girls are incredible 」

Kurose Anju, who I took away from Ishigami Mizuki yesterday, is surprised.

「 Well, those girls aren’t even in the training frame yet, Fujimiya-san 」

Kinosh*ta-san calls Rei-chan.

「 What, Kinosh*ta-san? 」

「 I was watching those girls, and I felt like I want to move a bit, can you spar with me? 」

「 I don’t mind. I also want to move a bit 」

Then, Kurose Anju with the girl assassins.

They marvel at the amazing fight between Rei-chan’s cane, and Kinosh*ta-san’s flail.

◇ ◇ ◇

「 I-Is it really okay for me to be here? 」

After the 40-minute morning training, we walk to the dining room.

Kurose Anju’s looking shocked.

「 It’s okay. We’re still inexperienced, that’s why we’ll train with our best, and become a useful members of the family 」

Haiji told Kurose Anju.

「 Haiji-san’s amazing, uhm, how old are you? 」

「 I’m thirteen 」

「 Huh? Younger? 」

「 Kurose-san’s fifteen, right? You’re the same age as Michi-oneesama then 」

Kurose Anju’s skipped a grade, so she’s already graduated from middle school.

She’s not attending any school right now.

「 You haven’t met Michi-oneesama yet, right? Michi-oneesama’s strong. She’s just as strong as Edie-oneesama 」

「 Haa, is that so? 」

Haiji said. Kurose Anju sighed.

「 Okay, Yo-chan, five out of thirteen girls decided to give up on their weapons overnight! 」

Nei came over and told me.

「 I wonder how many more will lay down their weapons after this? 」

Yeah, the assassination skills they’ve learned so far aren’t useful.

They also figured out how strong bodyguards are from Rei-chan and Kinosh*ta-san.

Some of them will abandon their weapons after knowing that.

That’s good.

Even so, those who want to be a bodyguard have to be prepared to start training all over again.

「 Kurose-san, you went to school in Switzerland, right? How’s your German? 」

「 Of course I can speak German. I can also talk in English and French 」

「 I was born in a German area… 」

「 I see, Haiji-san 」

Yeah, Haiji and Kurose Anju seem like they’ll get along.

I look at the other girls.

The girl assassins seem to be exchanging ideas around Dolly as they walk.

Erica and Marika is talking to Eri and Rie.

Motoko and Kurumi’s talking to Rei-chan and Grace Marinka-san.

Mitama and Kinuka’s with Yomi, Luna, and Koyomi-chan.

They’re all getting along slowly.

Then…

「 Papa! I love you! I love you! 」

Agnes came over and hugged me.

「 Oh, what’s up? 」

I asked.

「 Just training. Okay, Karen-chan 」

Karen?

Turning around, Karen came running to me with a blushing face.

「 Kou-oniisama, I love you! I love you! 」

She hugs me.

She pushes her cute chest to my side.

「 Training Karen-chan to fawn on Papa 」

Err.

「 I’m sorry, Agnes-san told me to get accustomed to fawning on Kou-oniisama 」

Karen said bashfully.

「 No, I don’t mind, continue 」

I pat Karen’s hair.

「 Ah, Mao too!! 」

Mao-chan came over, running.

「 Love you, Papa!! 」

I squat down and hugged Mao-chan.

「 Me too, Love you Yo-chan! 」

Nei squats and hugs me from behind.

Pushing her huge breasts against my back.

「 Hey, Ya-chan, it’s heavy! 」

「 I’m not heavy! I’m still light you know! 」

Sure, Nei’s got huge breasts but her proportion is slender, so her weight is still on the light side.

However, this pose is a bit painful.

Hmm.

「 Ya-chan 」

「 What’s up, Yo-chan? 」

Nei stopped clinging to me and I looked at her face.

「 Beautiful as always, no, too much. You’re the most beautiful, among the beautiful girls I’ve ever seen 」

「 What’s wrong, Yo-chan? Did your hit your head or something? 」

That’s not it.

Nei’s the supreme beauty, both in face and body.

「 Ya-chan, you’re coming with me to the talent agency tomorrow 」

「 Sure, you’re okay with me? 」

「 I definitely need you Ya-chan 」

We’re not negotiating with Death Star Productions.

Death Star Productions is already planning to use the value of the women’s talents in their office on us.

Saying “We have this many beautiful idols, talents, and we’re ceding our women’s department, so you should give something in return”

But, if we bring Nei.

I can just retort and say that we’re not interested in the female talents they have.

At the very least, that’ll bring the negotiations to our pace.

「 Anyway, please come 」

「 Okay, love you Yo-chan 」

Nei hugs me again.

「 Aah, Geez! Nei-chan’s cheating! Mao too! 」

Mao-chan hugs me again too.

「 Karen-chan, let’s do the same 」

「 Yes, Kou-oniisama, I love you 」

Agnes and Karen too.

「 Then, I’ll also give you a hug. 」

「 Then, Me too 」

Edie and Anya.

「 Everyone too! Yo-chan’s free to hug you know 」

Nei said.

「 Okay! Let’s do it Marika-oneesama 」

「 O-Okay 」

Erica and Marika also cling to me.

「 How about we do that too, Rie-chan? 」

「 I want to, what about you, Eri-chan? 」

Hey, the twins too.

「 Everyone, please leave it at that, we’re just going merry go round 」

Yomi said, and everyone let go.

「!!! 」

Yomi was using her Miko power.

「 Nei-oneesama, you’re the elder here, you should try to be aware of that 」

「 Okay~ Yomi-chan~ Sowwy~ 」

Nei laughed.

「 Now, hurry and go to the dining room. Yoshinobu-kun’s busy today you know 」

Margo-san told everyone.

Right, I…

I have to bake the pastry for today’s school festival too.
