Sonohi Sekai ga Kawatta - CH 36.1

After gaining Shizuki’s approval, I decided to report to Mitsuki and Kazuki-san that Matsuki will go to school instead of Shizuki.

I sit on the sofa while being sandwiched by Shizuki on my right and Matsuki on my left, and Mitsuki together with Kazuki-san are sitting on the other sofa facing us.

“I-I think it’s impossible…”

After listening to my explanation, Mitsuki says while looking at Matsuki.

“Y-Yes. It’s not a bad idea, but we should stop this…”

Kazuki-san who is sitting next to Mitsuki says so while looking at Matsuki with a worrying expression.

In their eyes, Matsuki appears to be ugly, and they know her age. Therefore they think it’s impossible for her to go to school instead of Shizuki.

Then, I will as you both, does Matsuki… Look old?”

Kazuki-san reacts when I call Matsuki by her name without honorifics.

I have to be careful when calling Matsuki’s and Mitsuki’s names in front of Kazuki-san.

“Though she doesn’t look old, that isn’t the problem…”

Mitsuki looks at Matsuki as she answers and then looks at me.

“Although I think she does look young for her age, isn’t it impossible in a fundamental level? Though I shouldn’t be the one to talk about it…”

Kazuki-san says while looking at Matsuki.

Hmm, I see. Even though they indeed recognize her as ugly, they do recognize her as young looking.

I thought that maybe there was a difference in the way we perceive the world in more than one way, but it seems that besides the beauty’s values, everything else is the same.

Only the beauty was reversed. In other words, even though she is from the Heian era, the beauty values are the same.

If Matsuki goes to school instead of Shizuki, the chances of her becoming exposed are extremely low.

If someone who knows Shizuki meets her, they would notice, but it seems that Shizuki has no friends in school. So it should be safe.

Thinking that I look at Matsuki with a side glance, and she looks disappointed. I guess it’s impossible for Matsuki.

*Bam* A sudden noise.

When I turn to look at the source of the noise in surprise, Shizuki has her right hand on the table.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s unreasonable. This something that Master decided. Master’s order is absolute. So we should obey without arguing”

Shizuki’s voice echoes in the room. Mitsuki and Kazuki-san feel Shizuki’s will from her voice. Her voice puts a lot of pressure on them.

“I-If it’s Fujimura-kun’s order, then I don’t mind…”

Kazuki-san folds her arms together and turns her bright red face away. Her eyes are watery, and her voice is shaking.

She is trying to hide that she was scared by Shizuki.

That is cute.

“Can I say something?”

Unlike the scared Kazuki-san, Mitsuki raises her voice calmly. Though Shizuki looks at Mitsuki, she doesn’t mind her at all.

I think that Mitsuki is getting stronger. Even though she was so timid the first time we met.

I stare at such Mitsuki, and nod silently. Mitsuki stands up after confirming from me.

“I will make a frank opinion”

Mitsuki stands straight and says to me with a dignified voice.

It’s totally different from yesterday, she sounds like a completely different person. Shizuki pouts and turns her head to look the other way.

“Who is the core of the Sakura house? Master’s insight is indeed correct. No one but Sakura Matsuki can be the Sakura house’s core. And there is no one here that opposes Sakura Matsuki”

Mitsuki states her opinion clearly while looking straight at me.

Matsuki standing for the family; that is what I talked about with Matsuki yesterday.

It seems that Mitsuki eavesdropped on our conversation. We might have been observed not only by Shizuki, but by Mitsuki too.

As expected of a genuine stalked. Moreover, unlike Shizuki who was discovered by me, I didn’t notice at all that I was being watched by Mitsuki. Her skill is in a completely different league from Shizuki.

“However, I think that it’s impossible to make Sakura Matsuki go to school instead of Shizuki-chan, I think that it’s quite difficult. I understand Master’s intention. It’s a good step to cute Sakura Matsuki’s trauma. Even though it’s a good cure, this is close to poison, it’s a powerful drug”

Mitsuki’s opinion was justifiable.

Making Matsuki go to school is dangerous, it can deteriorate her state.

Exposing her ugly figure to the public. Instead of overcoming her trauma, there is a possibility of her receiving a wound on her heart.

Moreover, since Matsuki is different from Mitsuki because she stayed inside the house. Before withdrawing from society she might have been accustomed to being treated as ugly, but now it might not be the case.

It’s certainly a powerful drug for Matsuki.

A rapid advancement can be obtained if successful, but if there is a mistake, the damages will be irreparable.
