Chapter 857.: 857.
「 I understand your sentiment, but… 」





Shou-neechan smiled at Shie-san wryly .

「 How about you think it over before talking about it again? 」

Shie-san’s startled .

「 Kouzuki SS is an organization under Kouzuki house, Kakka’s personal company . And, you think that we can hire a bodyguard of Kanou house for part-time work? 」

Kanou house has a rivaling status with Kouzuki house .

A bodyguard who protects such a family can’t have a side-job on a company owned by another family .

「 If you do that, you won’t just embarrass Kanou house, it will embarrass me who accepted you as well 」

Shou-neechan said .

「 There’s no side-job in bodyguard work . We can’t give you work during hours where your master is at school 」

Yeah, In case of a prolonged meeting of VIPs…

Shie-san couldn’t go home to welcome back Kanou-san .

「 I’m very sorry 」

「 Besides, we prefer men who have a fierce-look and good physique as uniformed bodyguards . Their job is to overpower the surroundings and have strange people avoid contact with them . If we have someone cute, wearing a schoolgirl uniform, I’m sure that the uniform fetishists will come for you 」

Yeah, like guys who love cute girls wearing uniform .

「 I’m not cute 」

Shie-san said .

「 Oh? From what I see, you look cute 」

Shou-neechan smiled .

「 We deal with criminals like Kyouko Messer after all 」

That’s right, Shou-neechan is a professional .

The weight of her job is different from an exclusive bodyguard who follows their Master all day .

「 At least, we can’t conduct business where you work for us as a side job 」

「 I’m very sorry for the impoliteness 」

Shie-san bows her head .

「 Although, if you want to leave Kanou-sama’s house and work for Kouzuki SS, then that’s a different story 」

Huh?

「 If that’s what you want, then I will assign you to another young lady . Your Master will change, but the contents of your job will stay the same . You won’t have to quit school either . The young lady I will assign you to also attends the same school 」

Shie-san will leave Kanou house and enter Kouzuki SS .

Then, she’ll dispatch as a bodyguard of another young lady?

「 Oh, but you can’t join our company and get yourself assigned to Kanou house . It would be similar to a big company selling out because they have financial problems . Yet, they remain on the same building as they renewed their lease contract . The world doesn’t work that way 」

If Shie-san leaves Kanou house and enters Kouzuki SS, it is a personal problem .

The bodyguard escaping Kanou house, which she served for years, would be a failure .

Kouzuki SS will gather some rumors about taking in a bodyguard from another house, but it’s not a big deal .

Other than being a personal problem, the idea that there were some trouble between Shie-san and Kanou house would show up .


However, If Shie-san affiliates herself with Kouzuki SS, yet, she continues as Kanou Sakurako-san’s bodyguard, then…

「 That creates more problems for Kanou-sama than me, right? 」

People will think that Kanou house is having problems with the cost of their bodyguards that they asked for Kouzuki house’s support .

Kouzuki SS paying up for Shie-san’s salary but, Kanou house might be paying up Kouzuki SS for their bodyguard service . Or Maybe, Kouzuki house is assisting them for free .

In short, they’ll see that Kanou house is having financial difficulties .

「 I devote my life to Kanou house 」

Shie-san said .

「 Right . Then, don’t say something that stupid again 」

Shou-neechan is smiling, but her words are harsh .

In the end, bodyguards who swore their loyalty to a specific house cannot have a side job as a bodyguard of someone else .

It’s known that if Shie-san were to bodyguard someone else and Kanou-san gets in danger, she will abandon her current Master and head over to Kanou-san .

「 I’m very sorry 」

Shie-san bows deeply .

「 Seki-san, I also apologize for her . My Shie is quite careless . However, Shie has done that due to my lack of virtue . Please forgive us 」

Kanou Sakurako-san bows her head to Shou-neechan, but .

Misuzu stretched out her hand to stop Kanou-san .

「 Kanou-sama, you mustn’t bow your head 」

She smiled .





「 Misuzu-sama? 」

Kanou-san’s surprised .

「 People are watching . They all seem to be having a pleasant talk while dining but, some of them are looking at us 」

Right .

We have lots of young ladies and their bodyguards in the garden party tonight .

We also have some Kansai Yakuza spies .

「 Seki-san came here to talk between servants . And so, we must pretend we didn’t hear what happened 」

Shou-neechan is older than Shie-san if we’re talking about their bodyguard duty .

It wouldn’t seem odd if Shie-san bows her head to Shou-neechan during their conversation .

I mean, Shou-neechan never takes off that smile of hers .

Looking from a distance, Shou-neechan, the site chief of Kouzuki SS, answered some questions Shie-san had, and so she bowed her head after .

Shou-neechan talked about Kouzuki SS, giving out training for the bodyguards earlier .

They’ll assume that Shie-san wants to join in the training, or she wants to practice with Rei-chan, along those lines .

However, if the young lady of Kanou house, Sakurako-san…

If Sakurako-san bows her head to Shou-neechan, a servant of Kouzuki house, then it will seem out of place . They will pay their attention .

And they’ll assume that something happened .

「 It is as you say . I’m sorry 」

Kanou-san said expressionlessly .

「 That conversation was between Seki-san and her . We didn’t hear anything 」

「 Me neither 」

Edie smiled .

「 Did you hear anything? 」

Luna and I shook our heads .

Adelheid-san as well .

Edie looked at Anjou Mitama-san and Kinuka-san .

「 We didn’t hear anything! 」

Kurama Arisu says, representing her elder sister, who looks down .

「 Now then, let’s return to the topic 」

Shou-neechan speaks with a bright tone .

「 It would be a problem if Adelheid-san were to have you as an opponent 」

Right .

Adelheid-san wants to show off her real strength .

Shie-san suddenly presented herself as an opponent .

「 Why? Can’t I fight her off as my apology for earlier? 」

Shie-san suggests a penalty for herself .

「 Geez . Look… 」

Shou-neechan sighed .

「 If you, from Kanou house, and the bodyguard of Torii house were to fight in the mansion of Kouzuki house, it will become a big deal! 」

Edie laughed .

「 Do you not get it? 」

Adelheid-san .

「 But Torii Mariko-sama already dismissed me? 」

「 That’s only convenient for you! The question of who brought you to this mansion still remains! Kanou house is on a higher status, you know?! If the bodyguard of that family suddenly picked a fight in the courtyard, then the blame goes to Torii house 」

I see . She’s right .

「 You shouldn’t think of your own convenience, think of other people’s standpoint as well . You’re such troublesome girls! 」

Edie admonished Adelheid-san and Shie-san .

「 Besides, you, who’s older, and have a proper master, has a more significant reason why you don’t want to lose compared to her . It’s not going to be a fair fight 」

Shie-san will join the fight with the responsibility of a Kanou house bodyguard in her shoulders .

Adelheid-san, who Torii-san dismissed, has nothing to lose .

Besides, Adelheid-san is still 13 .

Shie-san is at 17 .

「 Age difference has nothing to do with this . I will win anyway 」

Adelheid-san said, but .





「 The young ladies watching do mind 」

Yeah . They’ll say, “It’s natural that the older one will win against the small,” or “She cannot lose as she holds the honor of nobility . ”

And all the other thoughts .

「 Therefore, you cannot fight someone older than you and shoulder heavy responsibility! 」

Edie said .

But is there anyone like that?

「 Nii-san? 」

Luna clings on my legs .

Oh right, Luna’s 12 .

「 There’s nobody 」

Edie waves her hand .

「 If I recall, you’re 13 years old, right? 」

Edie points at Anjou Kinuka-san, Kurama house’s bodyguard .

「 M-Me? 」

Kinuka-san’s surprised .

「 Hey, what do you think after hearing our conversation? 」

Ruriko, who’s next to Misuzu, asks Kinuka-san .

「 I-I, no, I didn’t hear anything 」

Kinuka-san replies, but…

「 Earlier, you two tried to challenge Kyouko-san for your Master’s honor, right? 」

Ruriko asks .

「 That’s right . We showed our spirit to serve Kurama house! Right? Big Sis! 」

Mitama-san nods as her sister called her .

「 And that’s the reason we attacked Kyouko Messer from the sky 」

「 Unfortunately, they avoided it 」

Err .

「 It was all to show that Kurama house…Misato-ojousama and Arisu-ojousama have us sisters with them! 」

「 We will never go easy on those who are impolite to our young ladies! 」

The sisters declared .

「 So that’s how far you’re willing to go to stay with Kurama-san 」

Ruriko said .

「 But, if things stay as they are, Kurama-sama’s house will collapse 」

「 Our loyalty remains even if the family is no more! 」

「 No more! 」

Anjou sisters show no hesitation .

「 But, you would instead continue working than have the house collapse, right? 」

Ruriko smiles .

「 Look at your masters 」

Well, Anjou sisters say that they’ll protect Kurama house even if they collapse, but…

Kurama sisters prefer that their house doesn’t collapse at all .

「 Earlier, this girl got told that she can’t work in Kouzuki SS if she wants to stay with her master 」

Edie pointed at Shie-san and said .

「 But you girls, have you ever thought of helping out your Master’s house than protect them by selling off your skill? 」

Selling off their skill?

「 I have no idea how much Kurama-san’s family is in debt, but… 」

Ruriko said .

「 If you were to sell yourselves to another family, then shouldn’t the funds help them a bit? 」

Edie continues .

「 However, if that happens, we… 」

「 We will get separated from Ojou-sama 」

Anjou sisters show troubled faces .

「 It’s not like you’ll serve other houses forever . You can take it for a limited time 」

「 Besides, shouldn’t it be only one of you two serving Kurama-san instead? 」





Just one of the sisters working away?

「 If it’s in our company, we have contracts that have that terms . However, you must show that you have the skill 」

Shou-neechan said .

「 Do you mind, Misuzu-sama? 」

「 Not at all . Grandfather entrusted hiding the young bodyguards for Kouzuki SS to Seki-san 」

Misuzu shows approval .

「 As that girl’s Master said, the young ladies in here think that you challenged Kyouko Messer because you want to abandon Kurama house and work for another house 」

Torii-san thought that way . I’m sure others had the same thought .

「 That’s…we… 」

「 Others don’t care what your true intentions are . You can show your real motive, but they’ll only guess the truth 」

Everyone thinks that way, and so they accept it as that .

「 In short, you girls are in the same state as this girl who just got dismissed 」

Shou-neechan points at Adelheid-san .

「 Furthermore, the younger sister is the same age as her . Both look young and have no house to carry in their shoulder 」

Shou-neechan knows all of the bodyguards that came in today .

She doesn’t see Torii house as nobility but an upstart .

Kurama house, which is about to collapse, has no honor to protect .

「 Furthermore, everyone knows how Kinuka-san fought earlier, and so I think that it’s a great match if we have you two fight as a sideshow 」

If it’s a battle between two cute 13-year-old girls…

「 W-Wait . Don’t make conclusions without asking us first 」

Kurama Arisu-san is angry .

「 Kinuka is my bodyguard . Isn’t that right, Onee-sama? 」

「 I-I… 」

Kurama Misato is still all shook up .

「 Unfortunately, we couldn’t discuss it with Misato-san and Arisu-san 」

Ruriko said .

「 You two don’t have anything anymore 」

Minaho-neesan said that .

Misato-san’s going to become a prostitute .

And I’ll train Arisu-san along with her .

It’s already decided .

That means, Kurama house and Jii-chan already talked it out with Minaho-neesan .

「 Kurama house can no longer guarantee the pay nor the necessities for these two bodyguards 」

「 We don’t need those! 」

「 We are serving our young lady by our own volition 」

Ruriko said . Anjou sisters protest, but…

「 I’m talking to Kurama-sama 」

Ruriko replies gently .

「 Mitama, Kinuka, quiet down 」

Kurama Arisu-san tells her servants .

「 Ruriko-sama, I’m very sorry . Please continue 」

She bows her head

「 I-I’m very sorry 」

Kurama Misato-san said .

「 Your bodyguards follow you on their own volition . In reality, Kurama-san no longer has the power to have them follow you 」

「 It is as you say 」

Misato-san starts tearing up .

「 Therefore, these two are free . Naturally, they’re not paid their wage, but they’re free to continue as Kurama-san’s bodyguard if they so choose . And they’re also free to sell their skill to another house to save Kurama house 」

「 That means we no longer need to ask Kurama-san about it . See? 」

Misuzu said .

It’s the Anjou sisters’ problem whether they want to sell their skills or not .

Therefore, Kurama sisters were ignored .

「 Or should I say that it’s a problem if a servant continues to serve a Master who can’t give anything to them, don’t you think? 」

「 But, Kinuka, Mitama were with me since we were born! 」

Arisu-san said .

「 That’s right! We have been Misato-sama and Arisu-sama’s bodyguard since birth! We swore to Ragaraja to protect them forever! 」

「 I pledged to Vaisravana! 」

These sisters .

「 No, you should leave us 」

Kurama Misato-san said .

「 O-Onee-sama! Why?! Kinuka are our… 」

「 Yes . They worked splendidly . / That is why we cannot let Mitama sink along with us 」

Kurama Misato-san looks at Shou-neechan .

「 Seki-sama, I believe that Mitama is suited for Kouzuki SS’ work . Could you look after the two? 」

Shou-neechan…

「 It’s for them to decide . I believe Misuzu-sama already mentioned that 」

Yes, it’s for the Anjou sisters to decide whether they will sell themselves or not .

「 We will not go anywhere! 」

「 We’ll stay as Misato-sama’s subordinates forever! 」

Hearing that, Kurama Misato…

「 Then, Mitama, Kinuka, as your Master, I order you two… 」

She says while tears drop from her eyes .

「 Take Kouzuki SS’ offer 」

「 Misato-oneesama, I don’t want this . I don’t want to separate from Kinuka! 」

「 Me too! 」

「 Me too! 」

Oh .

It looks like the young ladies noticed the fuss .

If this goes on .

「 Even if you say that . Kouzuki SS cannot hire them if we don’t know their skill 」

Shou-neechan said loudly .

Kurama Misato, who settled that their house is collapsing, is now letting Kouzuki SS take their bodyguards . That’s what everyone thinks .

「 You need to be strong if you want to get in Kouzuki house 」

Edie continues the play .

「 And so, you need to show off your skill by fighting off this girl! Then we’ll talk 」

She pats Adelheid-san’s back .

With that, they’ll see Adelheid-san as someone trying to promote herself to Kouzuki SS>

「 Anjou Kinuka 13 y/o vs . / Adelheid Katori 13 y/o . Ready! Go! 」

The sideshow begins .

The young ladies observe as it’s amusing for them .

「 W-Wait a second! 」

Adelheid-san said in a panic .

「 The conversation moved on its own but, I cannot fight someone that weak 」

She speaks loudly, but that’s not an act .

「 I’m an A-rank license holder graduate from the academy! I feel sorry fighting this girl! 」

Adelheid-san said with pride .

It looks like she loves attention .

「 So you say, but what about you, Kinuka? 」

Edie smiled .

Kinuka’s clearly angry .

「 I cannot let that statement pass by 」

「 K-Kinuka? 」

Kurama Arisu-san’s surprised .

「 This is different from earlier . Anjou arts self-defense, Anjou Kinuka…Now that you said too much, it would be a shame as a warrior if I don’t face you!!! 」

Oh wow .

Kinuka-san’s fired up!!!
