I Was Just an Only Child Boy, Now I Became One of a Four Quadruplet Sisters - CH 54

After getting out of the bath, we ate dinner that was brought to us by maid-san. After that we had to play cards that Yoru brought along with her several times.

I was actually pretty tired after playing basketball, but in usual Yoru style, she said “What are you talking about? Playing cards is a must for sleepovers!”, plus tacking on that being lazy is unladylike.

Yeah, I was completely locked in.

On the other hand, Mahiru and Asahi had no problems with playing any game. As one would expect from people who exercise regularly. It seems like they have way more energy than I do. Speaking of that.

. . . Mahiru is the black one?

On top of the table was a checkered square black board game. It seems to be a territory conquer game. It was white stones verses black stones. Asahi was the white ones and she seems to be losing, having the lowest amount of real estate on the board. In fact her expression was grim, and she hesitated every time she was about to move a stone.

However I do have to commend her for not throwing in the towel even when faced with such a disadvantaged.

I would have just given up if I was in her position. In fact I’m confident in how fast I’d do it. . .

“Yuudachi-san. May I sit beside you?”

“. . .Ah-, Did Yoru do something wrong?”

“Eh, No, I am already satisfied. Well, Excuse me then.”

I was simply watching the game between Asahi and Mahiru. When Tokiwa finished staring at Yoru and sat down beside me.

. . .Act like I don’t notice her. That’s the best thing to do, because I don’t know how to respond.

Also isn’t she sitting too close? I feel like I need to stay away or else risk my safety.

Although contrary to my expectations, Tokiwa simply sat close to me and watched the board game.

“It looks like your sister is terrible at this.”

“That’s right. But as long as she doesn’t give up, I think there is a chance of a reversal.”

“I see. . .Mahiru-san does have a limited amount of places she can go. There is a possibility that she could lead her into traps. So B6 or F2 would be a good move? Right?. . .Or, Onee-sama can maybe G6. . . maybe-”

. . . She is ignoring me now.

Tokiwa was deep in thought for several minutes. Only occasionally grumbling to herself.

“- – – Haah.”

“Oh, welcome back.”

I greeted her after she finally returned from her sea of thoughts. She shyly looked away and muttered “L-let’s talk about something else.”

“I actually recently began to raise Sea Angles.”

“Oh? That’s amazing.”

She suddenly brought a new topic up.

Honestly, it’s a good thing. Anything besides talking about Asahi, or watching Yoru is a good thing. So if it’s not about that, then we are just having an idle chat. Perhaps this can even calm the mood.

“So, is it difficult to raise Sea Angels?”

“No, it’s actually quite easy. All you have to do is change the seawater once or twice a month.”

“What about feeding them?”

“I heard that you don’t even need to feed them. Because the seawater contains all the nutrients they need.”

That really is quite easy. I thought it would take way more time.

. . . Sea angels, Oh yeah!

“Haha, Speaking of Sea Angels, Didn’t you once mistaken them for chocolate cornets?”

“. . Eh?”

“. . .”

Oh crap.
