RPG chapter 66

66　The same kind

The feeling of Seiten-san, who worried about his daughter……

……I know how painful it is!

If there is a man approaching my sister Selen, I can’t help but kill him

My sister will soon reach marriageable age

No, perhaps my sister is still young enough to be called a child……!

That alone means even nastier men would approach her!!

「Hey Grey Ryuuga-sama!!」

「Why are you calling me!?」

Naturally, he also participates in the party as a member of Twelve Apostles

He requires special attention

The more my sister grows to adulthood, the more unbearable, minute cracks appear on my fragile heart!

This pain! This suffering!

Saraka-san’s father must have experienced it before!?

「Jira-kun……! I understood your behavior just now well……! You and I both knew the same pain, right……!?」

「That is right! I painfully understand your feeling about your daughter!!」

Our thoughts are the same, only the targets (daughter and sister) are different!

「Men who approach our daughter (and sister)!」

「Only death for them!」

「All men in this world!」

「Can just die!」

In that case, all the daughters and sisters will be pure eternally!

「Jira-kun!」

「Father-san!」

We hug each other strongly

We understood each other as men

◆

A feast started in full swing after that

The sake that you can enjoy with those who understand you is the best

「Saraka-chan 10 years ago, you know……! She was this, this small……! She was so cute that I wanted to put her in my pocket……!!」

「I understand! I understand, father-san!!」

「I had no other choice but to send Saraka-chan as a hostage……! But in fact, it was so painful that it felt like my body was being cut! I wished they killed me instead! But I also have my duty as a chief! So I had to swallow my bloody tears! Uoooooooh!」

「That was great of you! Please drink!」

You can befriend each other if you understand their feeling

I can agree with each of this person’s thought without any resistance

I feel like I have gained a lifelong friend……no, a teacher of heart!

「Jira-kun! I have misunderstood you! Until now, there were no men who could understand my feeling like you! I can entrust my daughter to you with a peace of mind!」

「Please leave it to me! I will definitely protect your daughter!」

We toast and laugh “gahahahaha”

The surrounding gazes hurt

Well, can’t deny that we are making too much noise……。

This is a party organized by the emperor after all……

「May I?」

When I got worry, someone immediately came

A well-dressed, noble-like old man approached

He has a neatly arranged mustache that screams 『nobility』

Since he seems to be strict about rule and manner, did he come to warn us for making noise?

「S, sorry……! We will lower the volume……!?」

「……know……」

「Hah?」

「I knowwwww!!」

The noble old man talks while crying

「My daughter! My daughter doesn’t need to become a wife! It’s fine for her to stay with papa forever! My wife kept saying something terrible like 『She will be too late to get married if you don’t marry her off soon』, but it had nothing to do with me! She can live with us until death!!」

The same kind as us!?

「Oh, I understand! I understand! Here, sit down and drink with us!」

「I’m indebted to you!」

Seiten-san naturally invites him to the drinking party

Don’t even need to check who exactly is he

「Me too!」

「Us (wagahai) too!」

「My sister is too cute!」

After that, those who have sister or daughter crowded together

A party with gentlemen with cute daughter, cute sister happens

「……is this country okay?」

I also realize there are cold opinions about this

The piercing gazes of Forte and Saraka, who have been watching the situation from the start, hurt

Their gazes are cold and freezing

「What? Why is the love toward blood relatives overflowing?」

「Overflowing, rather, this direction is bad……! Our childrearing plans seem to be conflict after all……!」

Forte, what are you talking about?

「You see!? No matter if the child is boy or girl, I will raise it with appropriate strictness, you know!? It will be terrible if it doesn’t become a talented person at the minimum!」

Forte-san, what are you talking about, really?

「Pff, the dog is troubled over the delusion? Although it’s me who will marry Jira?」

「What!?」

Saraka joins

And speaks really frankly again

「What foolish thing are you saying!? Why would you marry Jira!? Tell me your reasoning!」

「It’s right before you! Don’t say you don’t understand the flow of event so far! Jira and my Oyaji are such intimate friend, you see!?」

Yes

It’s not an exaggeration to say me and Seiten-san are kindred spirits now

「Marriage is about making connection between families. In other words, Jira, who is pleased with my Oyaji that much, has a high chance to become my husband! You don’t have any chance!!」

「If you say so……!　Gunununununu……!?」

It feels like Forte is being cornered

「Hey Oyaji!? In this case, do you recognize it!? Me and Jira’s relationship!?」

「What’s up, Saraka-chan? Right now Papa is talking with Ricktenberg-san, who just became a drinking partner, about our daughters’ cuteness!」

「Isn’t he the minister of home affairs of this country!?」(内務大臣)

An outrageous connection is made thanks to the daughters’ cuteness

「No, no need to care about that……! Rather than that, Oyaji! How about me and Jira……!?」

「Oh, I understand! Jira-kun is a splendid man, that is something I acknowledged! Now I want to create a big connection with Jira-kun too!」

「A big connection!? You means, like son-in-law……!?」

「To Jira-kun……, I want to entrust the duty to remove bad men who approach my daughter!」

「Yes!?」

Receiving a huge disappointment, Saraka is dumbfounded

「Jira-kun understood my feeling well! He will protect you from the insects for sure! I can let you stay in the capital with a peace of mind!」

「You idiot!」

「Guhoo!?」

He was beaten

「That’s not the case! If you don’t want the bad insects to eat me then there is a better way! Just let the man you recognized eat 『that』 first!」

「Saraka-chan! What improper thing are you saying!?」

「Are you feigning ignorance now!? Right now it is the critical moment to decide whether you can obtain the finest, best article or not!!」

Seems like not just the name but the blood of the Hanuma tribe has been inherited well, Saraka’s words are barebone without any decoration now

「As long as Forte is aiming for the status of Jira’s wife, I will hang on the stubbornness of Hanuma tribe and will never yield! I will give birth to Jira’s child!」

「Not so fast! Do you know how many years I have been thinking about Jira!? Other than that, in order to strengthen the position of Lobos tribe in the capital, Jira will absolutely be a big help!」

「Forte, you already won the rank of the Twelve Apostles! Hand over Jira to me!」

「Is that even an argument!?」

Ah

Finally, an all-out dispute occurred

Thinking it would be like this, I pretended to not notice the girls’ good will until now and thought about a safe landing somehow

「Onii-chan! This is because Onii-chan is shilly-shally about your relation with women! Please accept defeat and be executed like a man!」

「My sister’s sound argument hurts!?」

Selen, why are you coming here just to say those sound argument?

However, since her opinion is correct, I have no choice but to do it

If the conflict is settled with my sacrifice, it’s time to go!

「Ano……, can I have a second?」

Before I tried to do so, Grey Ryuuga-san interjected for some reason

Why!?

Why is the prince trying to endanger himself for me despite having no relation to this?

「What’s it, first rank!?」

「First rank should stay out of this!?」

The rampage of the maidens in love know no bound

「Well, since you guys were fooling around too much, I came to stop you. Since the Twelve Apostles already became the highlight of the empire, unsightly behaviors are not allowed」

That’s true

「Moreover, without hearing it beforehand, hearing it made me curious. What are you guys fighting over? It seems like both of you are wanting to marry Jirat……」

「If you know that much then don’t butt in! This is the once in a lifetime battle of a woman!」

Saraka snarls first

「That is right, since there is only one seat, I won’t hand it to anyone! Marrying a beloved gentleman is a woman’s desire!」

Even Forte……!?

How would Grey Ryuuga answer the claims of the maidens in love……。

「If that’s the case, why don’t you both marrying Jirat?」
