Isekai Kaeri no Ossan wa, Fusei Sukiru de Fathercon Musume-tachi o Tororori ni - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: The Split

“First place~!”

Dashing like a bullet, Angelica rushed down the staircase.

It’s been a while since she went out, so of course she’d be in high spirits.

For several reasons, I didn’t let Angelica walk freely outside.

For one, the ID I asked Gondou to forge hasn’t been delivered yet.

If a foreigner without a Visa walked about and got questioned by the police, it would be a pain in the ass, without a doubt.

The next option would be to conceal her presence with Concealment spell.

But then again, it would be a huge problem if she got lost again.

The Concealed status renders a person invisible, and it would prevent their voices from being heard.

Which means it would be impossible for her to ask for directions in that state.

She’d probably end up loitering around half-crying in a city she’s not familiar with.

That’s why I don’t let her out unless I’m there to go along with her.

But recently I’ve been busy.

It will almost be a week since I’ve had Angelica shut inside my home, so I’ll bet she would be reaching her limits soon.

I followed after Angelica and casted Concealment spell on her as I put my hand on her back.

Meanwhile, Ayako-chan looked at my hand with a confused look.

From an outsider perspective, it looked like a weirdo doing some mysterious psychokinesis on a girl.

Like “what the hell is this guy doing” or something.

“You get along well…with Angelica-san, don’t you.”

“That’s what you’re concerned with? Well, it’s like she’s doing a homestay, and I’m her guardian.”

“…She called you “dad” so…are you like a parent figure?”

As Ayako-chan and I was conversing, Angelica joined in. I don’t know what she’s thinking about, but she said, “Dad is my husband though?” as she interlocked her arms with mine as if she’s used to it.

Pressing her hills against me, my elbow was enveloped with softness.

I wish you’d stop. Ayako-chan’s gaze is scary.

“…you got along well…don’t you…”

“Yeah we do~. He loves me so much that he’s overprotective of me. I always asked him to let me come1, but he wouldn’t listen to me. You’d think he’d want to monopolize me at this point.”

Please don’t phrase it in a way that you’d create misunderstandings.

She was just talking about letting her come out of the apartment, you know? I said as an excuse, but I still feel like I just heard something snap.

“Is that so…”

Angelica tightened her arms as Ayako-chan gave her a sidelong glance with her shoulders trembling.

This is full of grim prospects.

Bathing in the illuminations of the street light, I absentmindedly looked up to the sky.

The stars could barely be seen, and the moonlight is scattered to a blur.

It’s cold.

With the strongest cold wave about, it’s unusually cold today.

It’s cold for a guy like me, so it must’ve been colder for Angelica and Ayako-chan.

Let’s quickly do what we need to do and go home.

As I was about to move my feet, Ayako-chan pattered her way over.

As for why, she said “It’s cold, so…”

Squeeze, she clings to my free arm.

…hm? Are these bigger than Angelica’s?

Shaking off the worldly thoughts that came through, I said to them;

“It’s hard to walk”

But there’s the cold wave, so if we stick together we’ll stay warm, Ayako-chan replied as if it’s nothing.

The 30-year-old me is flanked on both sides by two teenage girls.

I look like I’m taking them on a compensated dating.

I silently cast Concealment on both me and Ayako-chan.

This is something I can’t show to the society.

Rather, let’s stop moving like this already.

I don’t know if we’d still be seen through the surveillance cameras, and I don’t have the nerves to figure it out the hard way.

“Wah,”

“Ah,”

I brought my arms closer with Angelica on my left side and Ayako-chan from my right side, holding them close tightly.

Without saying anything, I brought them to jump from building to building.

“Noooo! I wanted to have a leisure date! Don’t skip out the walking!”, yelled Angelica in objection.

She’s full of spirits, isn’t she.

On the other hand, Ayako-chan couldn’t conceal her surprise.

I’ve done these jumps on TV, but this is probably the first time she’d seen me do it with enough strength to carry two people.

“…this…is not a trick…is it?”

Her world had already been shaken by the cloning incident, so I thought it’s okay for me to just tell her.

“You see, I’m actually a Hero.”

“…?”

I could use magic, I could lift a truck with one finger and my limbs would regrow even if they got cut.

Probably I shouldn’t be considered a human anymore. Ayako-chan is still a human, but not me.

I don’t know how much she would understand my explanations, but Ayako-chan stayed quiet.

“…but you’re a lot cooler than a normal person.”

【Party member; Ootsuki Ayako‘s favorability points is at 9,999】

【Ootsuki Ayako‘s sexual arousal has reached 70%】

【Requirements for consensual sexual actions met. Do you proceed?】

As I flew through the sky, the texts pops out, disturbing my vision and my conscience alike.

Meanwhile from my lower left, Angelica asked, as if confused;

“Hold on, hold on! Why are you enjoying your juicy moments with another girl? You can’t do that! Dad is mine, alright!”

【Party member; Holy Maiden Angelica‘s desire to monopolize increased by 600】

【Angelica‘s sexual arousal has reached 70%】

【Requirements for consensual sexual actions met. Do you proceed?】

Are you actually telling me to do it with both of them?

Just as I was thinking that it’s reached the absolute bottom of morality, I landed in front of a family restaurant.

I don’t know the tastes of younger people, but restaurants like these should have just about anything on their menu.

I dispelled the Concealment spell and entered the establishment.

The automatic door opened, and the waiters greeted us saying “welcome”.

We chose a seat near the washroom and I sat down.

Angelica said “I’ll be here~” as she sits next to me. It’s her usual spot.

Ayako-chan showed a fierce glare for an instant before sitting opposite of me.

“…You…Aren’t you too close?”

Evidently, Angelica who had her hand on my lap snapped back, saying as if it’s only obvious;

“I want him to feed me, so I have to be close.”

“…You’re not a child, are you?”

I’m dad’s child though? Angelica replied again, turning a deaf ear.

She’s normally like this as well, but she’s clinging onto me more than she usually does.

I wonder if she is feeling competitive towards Ayako-chan.

Either way it’s going to be hard for me to eat and the waiters would be looking at us funny, so what should I do…

I opened the menu and held it so that people wouldn’t be able to see my face.

“…I’ll get the pizza and Carbonara. How about you, Ange?”

“I’ll have this one called the Salisbury steak set.”

I flipped the menu and lowered it so Ayako-chan could see it.

I still managed to cover my face though.

“…I’ll have the gratin.”

“Are you okay with just that?”

“…I’m…not that hungry.”

Did she get something to eat while she was staying in the net cafe, I wonder.

She bought all-you-can-drink course, and I also gave her some more cash on top of that.

I pressed the buzzer to call the waiter over.

Hoping that they’ll think that I’m just bringing my relatives, I told the waiter our orders.

“I wonder what the waiter thinks of me and dad. We definitely look like couples, right?”

“Of course not. Probably you look like a daughter of a foreign office worker and I’m your interpreter.”

I prayed that they could think of us that way, and I waited for our food.

They should arrive in 10 minutes or so.

I was bored, so I thought of playing the rhythm game, but as I was about to pull out my smartphone, I noticed that Angelica is caressing my thigh.

The atmosphere turned weird in an instant.

This would make me look like I’m about to bring home a girl from the pub.

…Angelica has been like this since the first time we met, hasn’t she?

She’s still a virgin but I wonder why she acts so lewdly.

“Actually, how were you taught by the men on that other world?”

“What is it all of a sudden?”

“It’s like…you’re weirdly assertive towards me. It feels like you’ve been working in the night industry. Where and what did they teach you?”

“Well I came here to marry you, dad, so I read a lot of books and studied them.”

“…I’m going to ask just in case, but what books?”

“It’s the Magic Cabaret Club Catalog, or the Special Elf-Only Girls Bar.”

“They have cabaret clubs there!?”

No wonder her actions felt a lot like a hostess.

She only ended up learning about nothing but the extreme.

“If you’re out eating with a guy you like you should sit next to him, caress his thigh and offer him wet towel right?”

I’m shocked. In more ways than one.

“Well…how should I say it…if you’re clinging onto me because of the books, then you don’t have to do that.”

“Eeeh?”

“You don’t have to force yourself…well, you weren’t forcing yourself from the beginning, were you?”

She was aiming for my body at the beginning, and her favorability points along with her sexual arousal has been going up ever since.

System Message-san had shown that she’s enjoying her attempts of skinship.

She’s truly frightening.

If she were to be thrown into a foreign girl’s bar, I bet she’d rise to the top in no time.

She looks like an Eastern European too after all. Her kind is rare these days.

There are a lot of places that advertises that they have European beauties only to be filled with South Americans.

Perhaps they’re thinking that Japanese people wouldn’t be able to distinguish between Hispanics and white people.

But unfortunately for them, they can’t fool my eyes who has been seeing no one but foreigners for seventeen years in that world.

Don’t call a brown person Russian.

Seriously.

In my defense, it’s not like I go to those sorts of places because I like it.

The TV crews started dragging me there and I ended up unwillingly working there.

I personally wouldn’t drink unless invited, but now I’ve got dragged to a place where people are faking out their identities. As someone who knows the difference, I’m really pissed.

Once I went back home I thought to myself; “Yeah, the real one would look like this”.

So basically I’m the worst.

Even if it’s for work purposes, I went to a bar with a lot of young ladies…

And situations aside, I ended up bringing a girl home…

I’m just…I’m…

“Ange, you can order more, you know? You want sweets, right?”

“? Sometimes you would act kind all of a sudden, huh dad.”

“Haven’t I always been?”

“Hmmm…not that, I mean it in a weird way. It’s like you’re trying to deceive someone with your kindness.”

“W-What do you mean? I just think you’re so cute that I just want to spoil you, that’s all. It’s just me being a father.”

Suggesting that we’d get a parfait as a dessert, we spent our time together wasting several minutes.

“Ah, it’s here.”

Finally, the food is arriving.

It’s Angelica’s Salisbury steak.

Looks like the waiter is quite busy, so after he put the plate down, he hurriedly left again.

It seems like mine and Ayako-chan’s aren’t finished yet.

“It’s piping hot isn’t it.”

Angelica took a knife and stabbed it into the steaming hot steak.

With some squeaking noise, she cut the steak on its center, splitting it into two equal portions.

Afterwards she cuts it into even smaller, bite-sized pieces before sticking her fork into it.

I thought that she was about to bring it into her mouth, but turns out she brought it closer to my face.

“Here, say aaah.“

“…It’s fine”

“In exchange, you must share half your stuff with me too, okay?”

That way I we can enjoy two food at once, she said somewhat sensually.

Being able to act like this just by learning it from books…she sure is problematic.

…Even though she’s supposed to be the famous holy maiden.

I turned to look at the cut pieces of steak.

Despite how she looks, Angelica is surprisingly dexterous, so her cuts were clean and tidy.

Cleanly split…into two.

“Ah,” I unconsciously let out a voice. “I might know how Ayako-chan got cloned into two…if I think of it, then it would be possible for me to do it too.”

Note:

1. A literal translation for what Angelica said was something like “he wouldn’t let me (make him) come outside”. It was hard to convey since the sentence doesn’t have a subject
