Returning, Plans and Harbor.

(3rd Person POV)

Oemitsu landed on his backyard. After almost a month away, he finally came back. It looks like no one is here to welcome him. He slowly walked to the backdoor of his castle when he heard footsteps. A blue missile had locked it's sights on him. It was running faster then he ever could.

"NIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!"

Before he could even turn to the left, he was tackled by a cute little girl.

"It has been a long time, Shiro."

"Nii! Nii! Don't leave me alone ever again Nii! Baka, baka, baka!"

She hit his chest, however, her punches were nothing to him. After a few seconds of her tantrum, he placed his hand on top of her head and reassured her.

"Don't worry, I will never leave you again ever again. My cute little sister's place is by my side!"

While shiro was wetting his shirt with her tears, Pakunoda arrived with both Shizuku and Machi, who at that time had already finished their mission.

"It took you long enough."

Pakunoda said while she crossed her arms below her breasts, making them jiggle.

"Welcome back."

Shizuku said with her usual emotionless look and voice.

"You are too happy for someone who didn't have sex for almost a month. It is almost like you had sex with another woman."

Machi deducted.

Her keen intellect is a threat sometimes.

"Well, I am back. About your statement Machi, I will only speak in the presence of my lawyer."

Oemitsu laughed, mocking Machi's attempt at trying to search deeply into his secrets.

"While watching you both discuss your sex life is entertaining, we have other things to worry about."

Pakunoda stated putting on her business look, who just looked more slutty in his eyes.

"What is it that you want to discuss?"

Oemitsu inquired while he hugged little Shiro and sat down on a chair.

"While you were away, Tigre managed to defeat Thenardier and now Brune's civil war is over."

However, contradicting Pakunoda's expectation, Oemitsu just laughed at her words. Pakunoda and the rest were confused at his actions, only Shiro was the only who was crying.

However, Oemitsu knew that Shiro knew why was he laughing.

"Shiro, wanna tell them my plans?"

He knows that Shiro likes to explain things. It makes her feel grown up and he enjoys seeing her talking full of confidence, besides, he knows that if he doesn't let her do this, then she will never stop crying.

Just like he predicted, Shiro looked at him with her teary eyes.

"Can I Nii?"

Oemitsu just cleaned her tears with his fingers

"Go wild, show them why you are my little sister."

Pakunoda protested.

"You know that we are a family right? Why are you keeping secrets from us?"

Oemitsu immediately turned to her.

"where is the fun in telling you everything? I love it when you guys are trying to figure out my plans. Just know this, I will never force you to do something you don't want. If I do, then slap me in the back of the head so that I can recover my thought process. Now give them a lesson, Shiro."

Shiro turned around and faced her other 3 family members while she rested her butt on Oemitsu's lap. She then raised her legs up and rested them on Oemitsu's legs.

"With this civil war, Nii got the western part of Brune with almost no resistance and he also unified the north of Brune. Now more than half of Brune is under his control, the golden mines are also under his control. Besides that, Brune's civil war is just starting."

The final statement surprised the three girls who were listening to shiro very closely.

"Will the civil war not end with coronation of Regin?"

Shiro simply shook her head to Pakunoda's question.

"It is not that easy. Regin will be the first Queen of Brune, the nobles are not going to accept her as a Monarch that easily. She is going to have to give some concessions to Zhcted and probably, territory which will piss them even more. Besides that, there is still the remains of the Thernadier's house in the south and in the east the remains of Ganelon's house.

While they are not going to do anything immediately, should any opportunity arise they will betray the Queen. Now that she is ruling, should I present myself in the royal court as a Duchess, they will all flock to our side ready to betray Regin at any opportune moment."

Oemitsi petted Shiro.

"It is as my cute little sister said. There is something else that she still hasn't mentioned though, but we will leave that for later."

Shiro's eyes immediately shone while she turned to Oemitsu. Probably seeing this as a chance to get praised.

"Nii, you mean the fact that the entire world is on check mate right?"

He just kissed her little head.

"It is as you said, but don't ruin the suprise yet.".

Shiro simply smiled by the fact that she got a kiss in the head and continued to look in front happily.

"Shiro, I have been wanting to ask you, but why are your feet wet? Or even better why are walking around without shoes?"

Both her feet were on top of his legs, so he could feel the wetness of her feet.

"Nii. Don't worry about it. It is the dog's fault!"

Oemitsi simply sighed.

"I don't mind your hobbies Shiro, however, you need to learn to take a shower without me."

Shiro immediately froze.

"Shower without Nii! Shower without Nii! Shower without Nii! Impossible!!!"

Her mind short circuited. Oemitsu just sighed and picked her up.

"I have to leave soon. I need to punish a girl who is misbehaving."

Shiro suddenly became depressed.

"Nii! You liar! You said that you would be with me all the time!"

Oemitsu looked at her cute eyes.

"You can come with me, but when we get back you are taking a shower."

'Shiro is too lazy for her own good. if I am not there to watch her, she will starve herself just because she is too lazy to eat.'

For some reason when he saw Shiro's smile he thought that she was planning something outrageous for this bath...

He then picked her up and headed towards the exit, however, before he could leave, Machi stopped him and surrounded him with her strings.

"Where do you think you are going? We have some important issues to talk about."

He simply smiled.

"Don't worry, I will not be gone for long. As soon as I get back, I will get rid of all that sexual tension you got."

Without even waiting for her response, he broke through her strings and flew into the hair while Shiro screamed happily at the pressure of the wind hitting her face.

...

...

...

In a harbor filled with merchant ships. A very beautiful young woman with long dark navy blue hime-style hair and purple eyes was waiting. She is wearing a silk white dress that exposes much of her cleavage and most of her dress's parts are almost transparent.

"We will be departing momentarily, Duke Ganelon."

She said as she turned to an old man in his 60's with an imp-like stature. He simply smiled at her words.

"Oh, long time no see! Lady Valentina Glinka Estes. I am in your debt."

She simply smiled and returned the courtesy.

"I am glad to be of service."

Their way of speaking it is almost as if they were old friends who spent a lot of time together, however, Their small talk was cut short by a voice from above.

"Are you going Somewhere, Tina?"

Valentina immediately widened her eyes and turned upwards seeing the last person she wanted to meet when she was committing a shady dealing. She would rather meet the King of Zhcted instead of meeting him.
