When I got home, I heard from Suin and Yuna about meeting the chairman.

There were a few interesting corners.

“You’ve been talking to the chairman from the beginning?”

When asked like that, Yuna nodded vaguely.

“He’s just pretending to know. He said that when he sees signs of a problem, he suddenly shows up and says that.”

“Then Yuna was the chairman’s certified headache.”

The sharp gaze returned, but I tried to ignore it.

Next I saw Suin.

When I was talking about meeting the chairman, I was really excited. It felt like I was actually seeing a celebrity.

The scene of the chairman taking down Typhon was said to have been broadcast on TV for years, and an uncut version is said to have also been circulating.

It’s not that I don’t understand admiring someone of the same age, and a beautiful female hero at that… .

“But isn’t it too early for females to become corrupted by going from the beginning to gothic loli?”

“Hey?!”

“It’s okay. It suits you well. The inner guard of the skirt is definitely solid… The chairman definitely has good taste.”

I took out my phone and took a picture of Suin with her mouth wide open.

The expression doesn’t quite match the outfit, but it’s okay because there’s a gap.

I sent it to Senior Saya and received a refreshing reply, “Thank you for the photo. Please tell Suin that it suits her well.”

I can’t help but imagine you smiling, and I feel proud for no reason.

“Can you show me the clothes that Yuna bought? Oh, this one is nice too. Should I ask her to pick out my own clothes later?”

Simple yet sophisticated clothes that Su-in, a cross-dressing (?) beginner, could wear anytime and anywhere. It was obvious that she had put a lot of thought into the clothes she had bought so that they would look good no matter how she wore them.

“I guess we became quite close while I was away. I didn’t know you would put this much effort into finding it for me.”

Then Yuna answered with a look of disbelief, and Suin with an expression as if to say, “Have you gone crazy?” Huh?

“Is that all you have to say about the chairman?”

“I expected it. Except for the part where the chairman pointed at you and Suin and said, ‘Your two masters.’”

Yuna and Suin both looked surprised at the same time.

“If it’s someone you’ve only known for a short time, you can’t tell if they’re a master or a slave. Even if you have some prior knowledge of Yuna, it’s still hard to make an accurate reading if you’ve only talked to her occasionally… . Su-in is a freshman, so even if she’s the president, it’s normal for you not to know her well. ”

However, if you do something without even a certain degree of certainty, your value will decrease. In other words, the chairman had a certain degree of certainty in his judgment that Yuna and Suin had joined the same force.

“Since Yuna asked if her relationship with Senior Saya had recovered after seeing the unit’s change status, it’s safe to say that she’s aware of most of this. It’s also likely that Suin was paying attention.”

“Me?”

“The 2217 unit you were in has been acting strangely lately. You must have been acting strangely, too. If you were paying attention to whether something strange was happening in the military academy, it wouldn’t be strange if you were caught on the chairman’s radar.”

Suin’s face turned pale.

“There was no sign of that at all… .”

“Well, it’s a good thing that the other person knows about your embarrassing past from the beginning. You don’t have to reveal it later.”

“… So easy to say… .”

“It’s hard to say. It’s not my job.”

I answered Soo-in with a smile as she glared at me as if she was going to bite me, and then I finished talking.

“There are more things, but let’s talk about them after you get back. It’s a hassle to talk about them twice, and I need to get your permission.”

“I’m going to do as you say anyway. … Do you think you can win?”

“To Senior Saya? I can never win?”

“Chairman. You want to decide this through a duel, right?”

I blinked without realizing it at Yuna’s question.

Oh, didn’t we tell you the story?

“Of course you’ll win. If you meet the conditions, you and Suin will win too.”

““What?!””

Yuna and Suin shouted at the same time.

“It’s not like I can win easily… but I can win in a head-on confrontation.”

““How?!””

“Are you guys actually on good terms?”

“Stop talking nonsense!” “… .”

I was amazed at how well the two of them worked together, but then they both lost their tempers.

“You’ll know as you train. You said you both ate dinner, right? Then let’s train before bed.”

“What kind of training is it this time?”

I looked at Suin, who suddenly seemed to be filled with anticipation, and answered.

“Well… I have to run first.”

†

“More… I can’t run anymore… .”

As midnight approached, Su-in finally collapsed. Still, he had completed all the training courses he had discussed.

It’s not a course where you rush to your limit like in the morning, but a course where you slowly push yourself to your limit with a target lap time. You should also do weight training, but that requires more systematic management… .

By the way, Yuna achieved the goal I set a long time ago and returned home. We will be living together starting tomorrow, when Saya-senpai will be staying here.

“You worked hard. Drink this.”

He handed Suin the last remaining recovery potion.

Suin lifted the glass bottle and drank the liquid inside in gulps, then groaned, ““uh-uh-uh-uh.”.”

“I’m tired… .”

“They’re working me hard in every way, from exercising to making medicine. I don’t plan on stopping, but thank you.”

“… Well, that’s okay.”

“Huh? You can make me work harder?”

It was meant to be a joke, but Suin sighed and nodded.

“Senior Yuna… It’s nothing compared to when we were doing it.”

“Did Yuna get teased a lot?”

“That’s not it, but… . It’s not strange that you hate me… .”

“Actually, among us, Yuna is the one who reacts sensibly.”

In fact, I don’t think that Saya-senpai’s reaction is normal or desirable. Being overly affectionate is also a disease.

In my case… if you compare, Soo-in is the one who got the worst treatment, so it’s out of the question in the first place.

“I know that too… . I know that too… ”

“Is this the time when I need empathy and understanding? My self-loathing has grown so much that I want to ask for a hug?”

“Will you do it!!!”

Suin jumped up from her seat.

Wow, you’re more energetic than I expected. Is it because of exercise? Did exercise give you a healthy mind?

“I don’t know if this will help, but… the way to become friends with Yuna is actually simple.”

Suin flinched as she was about to leave the training room.

I didn’t look back, but I felt my ears prickle.

“Just do it like Saya-senpai. Yuna likes Saya-senpai.”

“… ?”

“Well, you’ll find out soon enough.”

“Just explain it!!!”

I left the training room, leaving Su-in protesting, asking what kind of quiz she was giving.

After washing up, I lay down on the sofa and mentally organized the events of the day.

training.

Mia, Saya-senpai’s mother.

The Chairman’s declaration of war.

Yuna and Suin’s problem.

Something that can only be done step by step, something that was truly unexpected, something that was expected but came a bit early, something that seems like it will go surprisingly well.

I was relieved to see that the Yuna and Suin issues, which I had been most unsure of, were going better than expected.

Yuna herself didn’t seem to realize it, but it seems unlikely that she would put that much effort into choosing clothes for a good partner. Right now, she doesn’t really care about her everyday clothes other than her piercings and rider suit.

It seemed that Suin also didn’t want to just pass it off as ‘don’t like it’.

Originally, Su-in had been bullied for a long time, so she tended to avoid interpersonal relationships. It was a good sign that she was concerned about her relationship with Yuna.

and….

and….

I must have fallen asleep while I was thinking about it.

When I came to, I saw Mia floating above me. Mia suddenly appearing was Mia, but the sudden realization that the ceiling in this house was high also surprised me.

“How long are you going to sleep?”

“The number one line you want to say after breaking into someone else’s house and waking up the landlord.”

It’s not exactly my house. I’m not the landlord either.

The moment after Mia-ssi snorted, Senior Saya, who was sleeping next to her, appeared. She was even covered with a blanket.

“I’ll leave it. When you wake up, explain it well.”

“… I don’t have the courage to say ‘Then I’ll see you later’ to Senior Saya… .”

“Don’t you think you talk too much?”

Because it has become a habit to point out things that other people don’t like… .

Senior Saya came down quietly from the air. I carefully accepted it with both hands, then opened the bedroom door after thinking about what to do.

The furniture was still there, but the room looked a bit shabby, with all traces of the people who had used it gone.

But the moment I laid Senior Sa-ya on the bed, it became the warmest place in the world.

“Are you going to that gathering right now?”

“Yeah.”

“If I don’t say hello, my senior will be disappointed… .”

“It’s not even a kid, what the… .”

Mia said that as if it was ridiculous.

But as he spoke, sealed containers appeared out of thin air and began to pile up on the floor.

“Eat them for breakfast. Freeze them and thaw them when you want to eat them.”

“You’re not even a child, but you take care of it so diligently and in detail. How have you managed to get by without letting it show all this time?”

“… You really talk too much.”

With those words, he was blown backwards by an unknown force.

Mia, who had forcibly kicked me out of the bedroom, stayed there with the door closed for a while, then soon appeared in front of me again.

“I’ll go. I know you know, but… .”

“I know. Senior Saya, I definitely… .”

I was about to say the following, but it felt like a flag, so I stopped.

I don’t know exactly what the Samjeong Knights are, but the fact that they were called up seems like a serious matter, so there might be something dangerous.

Let’s not turn on unnecessary flags.

It’s not that Mia stopped because she was staring at me.

“’Mom, please be careful on your way back. I’ll be waiting.’”

“You?!?!?!?!?!”

When I greeted her in Saya-senpai’s voice, Mia’s eyes widened.

“Huh? Do you think Mom was better, ‘Mom’?”

“… If you do that weird thing one more time, I’ll kill you.”

I could tell that he wasn’t sincere because the guards didn’t respond. But the look in his eyes was so murderous that I thought the guards were broken.

And then, after hesitating for a while, Mia suddenly disappeared.

And a few seconds later, the words rang out in the air. It was like some kind of scheduled transmission.

“Be careful because if you do something stupid and die, it will be a hassle to kill you… Take care.”

Could it be that he is planning to revive me and then kill me?

Unlike her daughter, she was a very dishonest mother.

“Okay, Mom! Leave it to Senior Saya!”

I sent Mia off with a heartfelt salute.

I waited just in case, but nothing like my heart exploding or my head being smashed.

This is the cider that got your mother’s approval. … Right?
