Chapter 47: Many ellipsis in a single chapter

I accompanied Gan'an into the dining room and took a seat next to him.

While we were waiting we both started talking about some details of our cooperation.

I honestly did not understand even half of what he said when he began to talk about politics, the need to establish trade routes to mobilize the resources of other worlds, and even open the possibility of doing business with magical organizations outside of Japan that are not allies or enemies of the Gentlemen's Club.

The only thing I understood is that both of my neurons almost burned out and I need someone else to take care of this.

Fortunately, I had enough brain matter not to sign an agreement just yet and decide to do the agreement one step at a time to avoid leaving evidence that the Gentlemen's Club or other organizations could track down.

Yes, the Gentlemen's Club is not the only problem.

There are cultivator organizations associated with the Chinese government, factions of supernatural entities hostile towards humans hidden all over the world, extremist groups of secular cults that seek to cause chaos in the world, the Vatican itself is a power that cannot be ignored, and what What is worse, in Europe there is the most important organization of magicians, the Mage's Association.

Considering that Kiara is my Servant, I am not surprised that Fate's group of mentally ill wizards exists in this world...

I want to sue the idiot who built this world!

As a final note, the Will of the World has two identities with their own names, this is something known to the high ranks of magical groups or high-level entities like Kiara.

Gaia the representation of the world, and Alaya the will of survival of humanity.

I want to have a cooking competition with Emiya…

Putting my stupid thoughts aside, I saw that Rinka and Mizuki were being led by a maid.

Next to them were two pretty girls, one of them was a pretty girl with a flat chest, black hair, and red eyes.

Kaguya Shinomiya, Gan'an's youngest daughter and protagonist of the anime/manga Love is War.

Next to her was a beautiful blonde girl with blue eyes and a well-developed body for her age.

She was Ai Hayasaka, Kaguya's personal maid and best friend of hers, and most importantly, a member of my top 10 waifus.

I sighed inwardly, being able to meet my favorite waifus being a fat middle-aged man suffering from caliginephobia is depressing.

I ignored my internal pain and smiled as I saw Rinka happily talking to Kaguya who seemed to be struggling to maintain an icy expression as if she were a jade beauty in a cultivation novel.

Good job Rinka, you beat the ice queen!

"Kaguya, say hello to our guest" - Gan'an spoke with his usual intimidating voice, with such a father it is normal for Kaguya to be practically schizophrenic.

Kaguya regained her composure perfectly, stood in front of me, and performed a perfect bow that showed her impeccable manners. - "It is an honor to see Principal-sama, Kaguya is honored"

That sounded ridiculously forced, but I don't know manners so maybe this is normal.

Now that I remember, she was one of the people who spoke to Gakuho to start making plans to get me out of the academy.

This must be uncomfortable for her, sorry.

"You don't need to be so polite" - was all I could say a little awkwardly.

I will never get used to people treating me with such respect.

"On the contrary" - Gan'an frowned a little which increased his villain appearance. - "She should show even more respect, after all, you are not only the principal of the most prestigious academy, now you are my valuable business partner"

I'm not sure, but I think I saw Kaguya tremble.

"I apologize for my lack of manners" - Kaguya lowered her head further making a perfect 90-degree angle.

My lip trembled and I could only sigh, it will be bad if I start arguing with Gan'an about the way he is raising Kaguya.

This situation gives me the impression that Gan'an is raising her daughter as a trophy rather than wanting to make her a true successor to the Shinomiya family.

Since my experience in the slave auction, my thoughts have become more pessimistic as I realized that my dream is impossible, I cannot save all the people in the world.

I hope it's just my imagination...

"Okay, we better go eat" - I sighed and tried to leave the matter.

Rinka nodded politely to Gan'an and took a seat next to the other girls, no one seemed to mind that the two girls accompanying me showed exaggerated manners which was a relief.

Butlers filled the table with luxurious dishes decorated in the most extravagant ways.

Although my food is delicious, I focus more on the taste than on the appearance so this food was more luxurious than the small banquets that I make every day, maybe I should improve the presentation of my dishes to improve the experience when eating.

I began to enjoy the food, although the taste was inferior to what I cook, the ingredients used were prepared with great skill showing that the chef was a genius.

While enjoying the food, Gan'an pointed to the glass in front of me. - "Would you like something to drink?"

I finished swallowing a piece of steak and used a napkin to cover my mouth. - "I'm fine with tea, I don't enjoy liquor too much"

Although having a glass of wine elegantly shows prestige, my image is that of a perverted idiot so I can put aside the exaggerated manners, one of the few good points of the identity in which I was reincarnated.

A maid brought me a cup of tea, although I prefer honey tea, green tea is not that bad despite being a bit bitter.

"I understand you have a particular taste for women" - Gan'an was a son of a bitch who waited for me to drink tea to say that.

Why do villain-looking people enjoy saying uncomfortable things to me when I'm drinking tea? Do they like to see me spit?

Enma and Kiara have done this so many times that I could avoid choking on my tea and my hands only shook a little.

"Well, I'm sure there are a lot of rumors about me" - I smiled wryly since people with large information networks see me as a perverted masochistic exhibitionist lolicon.

"It is true, there are many rumors" -Gan'an drank his glass of wine maintaining his appearance as a cold man without maternal love. - "As long as there is no proof, they will continue to be mere rumors"

I raised an eyebrow without understanding his intentions.

Does he want to threaten me to make public the information of the actions of the previous owner of this body?

I didn't understand it until Gan'an gestured to a butler who brought a file with various documents.

The cover of the document had a pretty flower, a rather feminine decoration.

Gan'an held the file and opened it in front of me. - "A couple of days ago I found something very interesting, I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but now that we are partners you can see this as a sign of my sincerity"

I looked at the file and didn't know what to do.

A fat middle-aged man sneaking into the ladies' room, the same fat man licking a female student's flute, that same stupid fat man jerking off as he watches female students in swimming lessons.

It was several pictures of a jerk acting a jerk, and that jerk was the middle-age-fat man I became.

Someone, please kill me ...

I sighed and looked at Rinka to see if she showed displeasure at seeing photos of me acting like a complete jerk, but my gaze drifted to Kaguya who was pale as a sheet of paper and shaking like an epileptic in a nightclub.

Oh ......…

I did not feel angry, if I were a pretty girl in a school where a sexual degenerate is a principal, I would also feel scared and would find a way to get him out of that position.

Instead of anger, I felt scared, my mind was filled with all kinds of arguments of doujins with genre MindBreak, Blackmail, Humillation, and other horrible things.

Looking at my knowledge of Hentai and the fact that I live in a hentai world I could only think of one thing, Kaguya is in big trouble.

"You seem to know where this is coming from." - Gan'an realized that my gaze was on Kaguya.

I wanted to say that it did not matter and that the jokes of a girl did not bother me, but before the words left my mouth I saw Hayasaka hurrying to kneel in a dogeza position.

"I am very sorry for my lack of respect towards Yamada-sama, I got those documents and planned to use them to blackmail Yamada-sama, to prevent someone from finding them I hid them in the room of the young mistress, I understand my mistakes and I will accept any punishment that Yamada-sama consider appropriate "- Hayasaka spoke at full speed preventing me from speaking.

Why does it seem like I'm a bad man?

I looked at the people around me.

Rinka was watching the scene with an innocent expression of curiosity as if she did not understand the situation.

Mizuki was the embodiment of indifference.

Only Kaguya showed shock and horror in this scene.

Even though she had a look full of suffering and regret, she only clenched her small fists without moving a muscle.

Even a complete idiot could see the truth in this situation, those documents were from Kaguya, but Hayasaka was taking the blame to protect her friend.

If this were an anime this would be the scene where the protagonist would arrive to save the damsel in distress.

I prayed with all my might for some idiotic hero to break down the door while he yelled "Nakama power!"

I would rather have a protagonist come to hit me rather than be in this position as even when I haven't done anything, I feel guilty.

I did not know how to respond and froze with my mouth slightly open, Gan'an noticed this and started to speak even though I would like him to close his mouth. - "It seems that I was wrong to assign an assistant to my daughter, this is my mistake and I hope this does not damage our cooperation"

I did my best to look away from Hayasaka's trembling body, just by looking at her back I can tell that she is completely terrified.

I tried to form a sentence that could calm that situation, having no ideas I could only improvise. - "It does not matter, it was my carelessness after all, besides, it is normal if young people make mistakes from time to time, that will help them grow"

Gan'an smiled giving me the feeling that something very bad for my heart was coming. - "How would you like to deal with the situation?"

I would like to go home and watch anime, thank you.

I stopped avoiding the situation and looked at Gan'an. - "I think she learned from her mistake, I don't see why exaggerate things"

Gan'an shook his head. - "Although I am not going to question your taste in women, I cannot let my future business partner allow his personal preferences to influence his decision making"

What?

Do you mean I'm forgiving Hayasaka because I find her cute and if I do that I won't be a trusted partner?

Well, in business it is true that it would not be reliable to collaborate with a person who changes his mind easily due to the influence of people not related to the business, but this is not a business question, we are talking about a person, already judging by the tension in the environment, this involves Hayasaka's life.

I resisted the urge to kill myself because of what I'm about to say and showed a nasty smile. - "You did not understand me, she has already apologized, she said that she would accept any punishment that I chose so I will make sure that she learns her lesson"

Gan'an nodded approvingly. - "I was worried that you were too soft, having a weak partner is more dangerous than a powerful enemy"

Gan'an gestured to a butler, and he brought out a long wooden case.

Do all the butlers in this mansion speak sign language?

The butler stopped in front of me and with a bow opened the case.

It's a joke? Tell me what a joke ...

Inside the case was a riding whip.

"I will ask you to please if you can begin the punishment here to show my servants what happens when someone betrays the Shinomiya family" - Gan'an spoke indifferently as his gaze focused on Kaguya. - "With 10 whippings will be enough, the rest can be done in your home since from now on she belongs to you"

...

God, can you hear me?

Could you kill me?

Please…
