Kujibiki Tokushou: Musou Hāremu ken - Chapter 290

Chapter 290

To confirm Caroline’s new ability, to see check her eyes .

Using my Warp Feather, I returned to the mansion with Caroline .

「Ah! Master」

When I warped to my bedroom, we encountered Miu who was making the bed .

「Nana-san was searching for Master」

「I also have business with Nana . Tell her to come here」

「Yes!」

Although Miu nodded, she did not take any other action and only continued to make the bed .

It’s not like she ignored my order .

I’ve given Miu the lottery skill “Puppet Master” .

She probably used an idle puppet or one that is near Nana to call her .

Suddenly, I noticed Caroline’s eyes .

She was staring at Miu .

「What’s the matter」

「There’s nothing」

「Eh?」

「I can’t see anything……why?」

「You can’t see anything……? You are talking about Miu, that girl right?」

Caroline nodded .

I can see a clear color of confusion from her expression .

『Isn’t it because it’s a puppet』

「Ahh, I see」

I realized after hearing Eleanor .

The one here isn’t the original Miu . It’s only a puppet made to look similar to her .

It’s a soulless but well-made puppet .

「Well, naturally you can’t see anything huh」

I was convinced, but Caroline was still confused .

I was about to comfort her by explaining it to her……but I stopped .

I want to test her eyes, so it’s too early to comfort her .

It will be for the best if we proceed like this without giving her any preconception .

I thought of that and waited for a while after deciding not to say anything .

*KonKon* .

The bedroom’s door was knocked and Nana entered .

「I have come to answer your summons . Aruji, I heard that you have business with me」

「Before that, let’s start with yours . You also wanted something from me right?」

「Ha! I wanted to report that there are suspicious figures around the mansion for the past few days」

「Suspicious figures? Are they strong?」

「No . They are only at the level where the platoon leaders are able to defeat」

「I see . I’ll leave dealing with them to you then . If you think it’s not neededーーno」

I stopped halfway and changed my words .

「Report to me after it’s over . Bring with you those who have particular achievements」

I implied that I’ll be giving them rewards .

Hearing that, Nana nodded with a more dignified expression than usual .

「What business did Aruji call me for?」

「Just stand right thereーーCaroline」

I made Nana stand by and looked at Caroline .

「How does she look?」

「She’s so blinding」

「Blinding, huh」

「Un . Her light is amazing, it’s as if I’m looking at the sky during the day」

「As strong as the sun huh」

I was convinced and became happy at the same time .

I became very happy hearing that the evaluation of Nana’s soul was even better than I expected .

「Aruji……? What does that mean?」

「Don’t mind it . It’s over now」

「Haa……?」

「Come to my bedroom tonight . Make sure you’re alone」

「ーー! Yes!」

Nana was surprised for an instant, but soon after, she made an unusually happy smile .

If Caroline’s eyes are correct, it means that Nana’s soul is shining like the sun .

It makes me happyーーit makes me want her .

And to execute my order, Nana left the mansion to take care of the matter of the suspicious figures .

I saw her off and when I was thinking who I should let Caroline take a look at .

「Otou-san〜!」

「Myu〜!」

The door was slammed open and Hikari and Chibi Dragon entered the room .

The lovely girl and the small dragon ran towards me and clung to me at the same time .

「Otou-san〜, welcome back!」

「Yeah, I’m back . Were you playing with Olivia?」

「Un! I was playing with O-chan and everyone!」

「I see, I see . Are you tired? Want to eat some snack?」

「Un!」

「Miu」

「Understood」

Miu nodded and trotted out of the room, probably towards the kitchen .

Hikari hugged me, she’s still the world’s cutest girl as usual .

「Ne〜, ne〜, Otou-san . Hikari wants to go to the hotsprings〜」

「Hotsprings huh」

「Un! I want my hair washed like an adult, just like what Otou-san taught me〜」

「I see, I see」

The adult way of washing hair that Hikari said was one that doesn’t use a shampoo hat, the one that washes the shampoo without looking down .

I told Hikari about that before, and since then, it looks like she started to like it .

「Yosh〜yosh . Let’s go next time」

「Un!」

「Myu〜, myuu〜!」

「O-chan said she wants to go too」

「Ahh, of course」

『Really, there’s a limit on doting over her』

I ignored Eleanor’s voice and patted the world’s cutest Hikari’s head .

「A-re〜?」

「What’s the matter, Hikari」

「Onee-chan……what’s the matter?」

Hikari looked at Caroline curiously .

I followed her gaze……and noticed as well .

Caroline was frightened for some reason .

「What happened, Caroline」

「I’m scared……」

「Scared?」

I looked at the direction Caroline was looking at when she said she was scared .

And then……it was Hikari .

「Hohe〜?」

「Uu……God〜……」

Caroline looked very frightened . She hid on my back and held my clothes tightly . She clung to me .

「Is Hikari, scary?」

「No, that’s not true at all . Hikari is the cutest in the world」

「But, Onee-chan……」

「Even so, that’s not true at all〜〜」

『Enough already, you doting idiot』

Eleanor scolded me with a slightly strong tone while rolling her eyes .

「What’s going on?」

『You should be glad Hikari』

「Hohe〜? What do you mean, Okaa-san」

『It seems that that girl can see the one’s soul at its bare state』

「The soul?」

『Umu . It can also be described as one’s true nature . What is Hikari’s identity?』

「Hikari’s a Demon Sword you know? I’m Okaa-san’s daughter after all」

Hikari answered promptly .

She did not have any doubts about that, reacting as if it was something obvious .

『Umu . Hikari is a Demon Sword . A Demon Sword only second to this Eleanor in this world . Looking at your true nature, it is only natural that she is frightened』

「I see〜!」

「……it’s like that huh」

I understand what Eleanor is saying . I also got a better understanding of Caroline’s eyes .

But it felt complicated .

I couldn’t be convinced that Hikari, this lovely and the world’s cutest girl would be a cause of fear .

「Ehehe〜……Hikari became another step closer to Okaa-san again〜」

『Umu . Continue to do your best』

「Un!」

But Hikari seems to like it and Eleanor and Hikari’s conversation was the same as before .

Hikari became more of a Demon Sword……and that was proven .

I probably should be happy about it just like how Hikari does .

『You heard her』

「Ehehe〜」

Hikari hugged Chibi Dragon and spun around .

She’s so cute after all . However, Caroline as still scared of her despite how cute she looks .

It was somewhat of a surreal scene .

Suddenly, I became curious .

I turned around, subtly hiding Hikari’s appearance, and asked Caroline .

「By the way, how do you look from you?」

「God?」

「Yeah, me」

Will she be afraid after all?

I’m the “Demon Sword Wielder” or Eleanor and Hikari after all . I’m even using the dark aura in daily life .

I thought that I’d be on the side that would frighten her, so I asked .

『If I can corrupt you with just that, I’ve already possessed you a long time ago』

Eleanor said while rolling her eyes .

Ahh, I see .

My resistance against the Demon Sword is 777x too after all .

And just like what Eleanor said .

「God is God」

「Un?」

「You are very……God……-ly? God is God, different from everyone else」

Caroline continued to call me god while her eyes became even more fervent .
