In the study at night.

I was all alone. [M]

He was looking up from the ceiling, leaning his back against the chair, about 45 degrees behind him.

I split a decent room with Nong and Alai, but Nong became a full favorite mode and immersed himself in the full room.

I regretted being left alone in the study when I accidentally left it alone again.

When I was there, I heard a conk and a quiet knock.

This sign... is it Sister?

"Yes....."

In a carefree reply, the door slammed open and my sister came into the study.

"You were here, weren't you, Hermes?"What's the matter? I don't think I'm feeling well. "

"Ahh... nothing."

I swallowed a leaking sigh and said so.

It can't be helped now, so I thought it would be better to forget it right away, so I did.

Is that so?

Sister tilted her head strangely, but she did not pursue it deeply.

Instead, he came close to me with a flickered face.

Ufufu

"What's up, sister, smile in a disgusting way"

"It's terrible, Hermes!"

"No, I mean, like when oneechan approaches with such a smile..."

I barely swallowed the last "nothing but boku", but I felt as if I was saying it.

"No more! What do you mean, no more?"I'm here to talk about the survival of the Canoe family. ”

"Hmm?"

I put back the back of the chair I was falling over on, woke up my body, and looked at my sister.

I was concerned about what my sister said.

Survival of the Canoe family.

I don't care too much about it, but it was the most important thing to me.

The most important thing for me to do is not to do anything and to spend my time alone, it is for the Kano family to survive as an aristocrat.

That's why I couldn't help but care less about the survival of the Canoe family.

"What's going on?"

"Yes, take a look at this."

Having said that, my sister placed several photobooks on her desk in the study.

When I opened one of the photo books made of magic pictures, there was a young lady lying on it.

I'll try to open the other one as well.

Then, everyone was a lady with a similar feeling.

What is this?

"This is a matchmaking photo."

Matchmaking pictures?

“Yes, this is a photo of a widow who lost her husband in the last few years.”

"... why are you doing that?"

"No, Hermes, you brought Furu-chan's mother back."

"That's right, but..."

So? "I stare back at you with my face.

"Finally, Hermes turned to his wife, so I gathered her."Now, you can choose whichever one you want. "

"So what!?"

I heard a little voice coming up and listening back with a sense of intrigue.

Huh?

Huh?

"Hermes, have you forgotten?The value of a widow of a businesswoman who can reliably have children. "

"..... ah"

When I was told, I thought about it.

Sure enough, I forgot.

For aristocrats, the marriage partners are often virgins or widows.

Both of them, as aristocrats, connect the blood of the house.

Needless to say, the virgin does not date other men, so if she gives birth, she is surely the son of the nobleman.

And in the case of businesswomen, the career of "having a child once" is extremely valuable.

Even if you are young and beautiful, you may not be able to have children or have children.

If the purpose of connecting the blood of the nobility is prioritized, the widow's midwife is extremely valuable.

That's why I can understand you saying that.

"Don't get upset, sister."

Huh?

"That's not why I brought them home."

"Is that so?" Then why? "

Sister tilted her head slightly.

"That's..."

The figure of Non and Full at that time came to my mind.

That's why I was embarrassed to be honest.

You're embarrassed and you're silent.

"Ufufu, you don't have to be so shy."

"Ugh... no, it's embarrassing, but..."

Sister clenched her mouth and laughed.

Definitely, it would have been more and more misunderstood.

Now, I'm wondering what's going on.

“But, yes, it may have been a little too hasty.”

Huh?

"A widow prepared in advance may not suit Hermes' taste."

"Did you prepare it in advance!?"

“I'm going to take a closer look at the girls that Hermes brought back, and I'm going to list a similar type again.”

Sister said that, put together the matchmaking photos, and left the room with a smile on her face.

There was no time to stop her, she was like a stormy sister.

It's called Hermes Harlem, and it's called a matchmaking photo.

If you're my usual sister, that's it.

"I don't know what you're really thinking."

Are you curious?

Wow!

Suddenly I heard a voice coming from behind me, and I was surprised and jumped out of my chair.

After jumping up, he turned around.

Alai stood behind the chair and near the wall.

At night, the darkness spreads through the windows.

It was like melting out of the darkness.

Since when have you been there?

A little while ago.

"Oh no!? There was no sign at all."

"I have no sign of anything."

"Is that so..."

I was wondering if I could say something about things.

She was convinced that there was no sign of a sword.

...... If it's a weapon at the top of my consciousness, I might feel a sign of it, but I tried not to think deeply.

Meanwhile, Alai stared at the door with an unclear look on her face.

What's the matter?

"The woman from before"

Huh?

"...... nothing. More than that."

Alai looked straight at me.

"Do me a favor."

"Please? What?"

"I want a drop of blood."

"Blood? Mine? Why?"

“Become a Temporary Master”

Hmm?

Do you want to be a temporary master?

Well, that's fine.

I nodded tiny, scratched my index finger with my nail, and made a small cut.

A grain of blood like a ball blots out from it.

Is this all right?

"Nh..."

Alai got close to me and sucked on my index finger.

Huh!?

I was surprised and unintentionally pulled my hand.

Alai squinted her lips and stared at her face with an upward gaze.

No good?

What are you doing?

I just said, "I want you to split a drop of blood."

Yeah, I did say that!

I didn't say how!

Alai stood up straight and pulled herself back for a moment.

"Thank you."

Is that enough?

"Nh..."

Alai said that and slowly walked towards the door.

I opened the door and walked out of the room.

"What the hell was that..."

I don't understand Ali's behavior. I burned my head.

"Ah... now I can feel the signs"

Have you taken my blood and made a difference?

I began to feel the signs of Alai leaving the room.

Even now, with a little awareness, I could grasp the signs of all the humans in the Mansion, but I could feel the signs of Alai as well.

Somehow I followed Alai's signs.

Alai kept moving.

There was an older sister at the end of the journey, and she stopped walking.

Alai approaches her sister.

Do you feel like you stopped and approached me?

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

At that moment, my whole body began to swell up.

I felt the murderous aura burst from the signs of Alai who was chasing me.

Not a big deal of murder, enough to silence even in front of your eyes.

But it was directed at my sister.

"--Oh!"

I got up strong enough to knock down the chair, jumped out of the room, and rushed to Alai and her sister.

Soon after, I saw Non, who had a sword, pointing the tip of the sword at your sister.

Stop it!

Daisuke, let your consciousness turn towards me and create a respite while breaking between the two.

I stood in front of my sister as if to cover her.

"Master..."

Non had a bad expression on his face.

"What are you guys doing?"

It's okay, son, I didn't do anything wrong.

Alai, who had become a sword, replied calmly.

I was just trying to kill her myself.

It's not okay at all!

I pushed in so vigorously that my voice turned around.

"What's wrong with you all of a sudden!"

That woman is a fool.

Huh?

When I was poked into the void, I accidentally saw the sister behind me.

Didn't you hear the voice of Alai, who had become a sword? She looked strange.

"A woman with a thing in her belly, who is not alarmed."

"That's..."

I tried to defend it, but I couldn't.

Maybe Alai was right.

It is true that your sister is always up to something.

That's why I'm going to kill you myself.

"So why!?"

I'm Alai Slayer, the sword that slashes allies

I've given you my master's blood, and now you're the only one on the master's side.

Non explained the supplement.

Slay the woman. If it's slashed, it's white, if it's not slashed, it's black. "

What kind of witch trial is that!?

Once again, my voice turned upside down.

After I poked in, I settled down a little.

I understand Alai's intentions, good intentions, this.

A concealed sister can tell if she's really on my side--that's what I'm talking about.

It's a bit of a good idea, but it's definitely good intentions.

I caught a glimpse of my sister.

Hermes?

Whether it's slashed (,,,) or not (,,,,).

There's no way I could point a sword at my sister.

"Non, give her to me."

Yes, Master.

In a slightly stronger tone of command, Non did not hesitate to give me the Alai.

When I received the Alai, I cut my palm thin with the tip.

After slashing himself, Alai returned to the human figure from the sword.

"For now, we don't have to talk about this. Okay."

"All right."

Alai nodded lightly.

I turned around and turned away from my sister.

"I'm sorry, sister, I'm surprised."

"No, it's okay." I've been shown something good, so I don't care what it is. ”

Is it good?

"Now, Hermes has hurt himself to get her back."

Yeah.

Ufufu, you're on your own-

Yeah, I guess.

I nodded.

I came up with it, but I'm glad it worked out.

- But...

For some reason, my sister was jealous.

Sister?

Hermes, that's right.

Huh?

“I'm confident and I'm on my own.It's the hardest thing in the world. ”

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

"That woman is right."

Alai interrupted the conversation.

I turned my head, wondering.

"There are no people who can stand on their own side with such clarity."I know it well. "

"Mmm..."

It's just like Hermes, isn't it?

That's the master.

"He's not just a man with arms, he's a man with a strong heart."

"Um......"

"At some point, the matter with my sister became a mess..."

Before I knew it, my ratings went up again, didn't they?
