Early morning.
The alarm clock rang on time, and Kirataka climbed out of bed amid the echo of pleasant light music.
After turning off the alarm clock, he looked out the window, slightly dazed.
Well, he still felt a little unreal.
As an old captain with seven years of experience and a transmigrator, he had indeed imagined many scenarios, but he had never expected that there would be a day when he would live with three beautiful girls.
Even though the shrine maiden Yae Sakura existed before, he would go out for combat training and classes during the day. Now it is a temporary vacation period, and the feeling is completely different.
'Well... because I'm on vacation, my daily boxing training with Fu Hua has also been temporarily stopped.'
However, basic physical training cannot be neglected.
"298...299...300. Phew. Good."
Kirataka quickly completed 300 push-ups on the spot and then stood up nimbly.
After taking a cold shower in the bathroom, he came out refreshed, put on his clothes, and opened the window facing the forest.
The morning sun shone through the forest, and Kirataka could see the beautiful scenery along with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
The breeze blowing from the forest hit his face, blowing up the water droplets that had not yet completely dissipated after the bath, bringing a hint of coolness.
"Well, a new day begins."
Kirataka shook his hands and relaxed his arms, opened the door, walked down the stairs, and came to the first floor.
Because he usually gets up early to practice boxing with Fu Hua, he gets up relatively early. At this time, the three of them are probably still resting.
After arriving in the kitchen, he skillfully took out six eggs from the refrigerator.
He put the pan on the stove, turned on the fire, and poured some oil into the iron pot after it started to smoke slightly.
——Although his cooking skills were indeed comparable to Kaslana's in the beginning, after repeated practice and training, now he has reached the level of a normal person, let alone Mei.
After all, what is there that can't be practiced well even after repeating it ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times?
Normally, Yae Sakura would come to make breakfast, but now with the arrival of the three girls, it would be inappropriate for her to appear in human form.
Well, as for why there are six eggs...
Him, Yae Sakura, Kiana, Bronya, Mei, and the other personality inside Mei.
He looked at the pan with his eyes, picked up the egg with his right hand, knocked it on the edge of the pot, and then with a click, the egg white and yolk fell into the pot.
The eggs were frying in the pan with a sizzling sound. When the egg whites turned golden brown, Kirataka skillfully used a spatula to transfer them to a plate and sprinkled a little bit of salt at the end. A fairly decent breakfast was ready.
After putting the breakfast on the dining table, he glanced at the living room and saw a little fox curled up in its den, sleeping.
——Yesterday, the enthusiastic Kiana made a nest for it, so Yae Sakura, who lost her own room, temporarily lived in the living room.
Kirataka walked over and placed one of the plates of eggs in front of her.
He didn't know if foxes could eat eggs, although Yae Sakura was not a real fox.
The little fox in front of him moved its ears and finally stood up and stretched.
Seeing this, Kirataka asked in a low voice:
"Ms. Sakura, are you used to this...?"
"It's okay. It's not bad to change your identity occasionally."
Yae Sakura's answer echoed in his mind.
The cute little animal is as lovable as the beautiful girl. Except for Mei, who had already seen her once, the other two girls are also unable to let go of her.
Of course, the way Bronya looked at her might have been a little subtle, and perhaps she had already realized that they were fox ears and not donkey ears.
He turned around and took out a few bottles of milk from the refrigerator and put them on the table. At this time, footsteps were heard on the stairs behind him.
Kirataka turned around and saw that it was Mei who came down.
She was only wearing a loose purple T-shirt, her face was slightly flushed, her long purple hair fell behind her, and the soft curve from her neck to her collarbone was as white as snow.
Although it was loose, it could not hide Mei's proud figure that far surpassed most of her peers.
The lower part of the garment was a pleated skirt with a simple pattern that barely covered the knees, with no coverage of the calves.
Well, good review.
A beautiful girl has no flaws no matter what clothes she wears, even if she has no clothes on.
"Kirataka, good morning."
Seeing that he was already in the living room, the purple-haired girl waved her hand, her cheeks slightly flushed.
——This is real cohabitation!
Although she did have some thoughts in her mind when Theresa arranged dormitories for them yesterday, she did not dare to express them.
Unexpectedly, Bronya helped her and spoke for her.
Come to think of it, if Bronya and Kiana hadn't come with her, she would never have had the courage to move in alone.
"Good morning."
Kirataka nodded, pointed to the breakfast on the table, and said:
"Breakfast is ready."
Mei was slightly stunned, then said:
"eh, are you already done?"
She got up earlier than the other two girls and originally planned to make breakfast for everyone.
"Well, after all, something like that happened the day before yesterday. How can I let you make breakfast again"
Kirataka said.
"Uh, actually, I don't have anything to do..."
The purple-haired girl said softly.
After bringing Mei back to the medical room from the beach, Theresa arranged for someone to check on her. It was clear that she had simply taken sleeping pills. Apart from that, there were no other effects on her body.
After a pause, Mei thanked him again in a gentle tone:
"Thank you this time too, Kirataka."
She had learned from others what happened after she fell into a coma.
Including the time in Nagazora City, this was the second time he saved her.
At this moment, the color of one of the girl's eyes changed and became bright red like blood.
Then, she asked in a completely different tone:
"…Bronya did it, right?"
——It's Sister Lei Lu who has logged in.
She is online, but not completely. Judging from their temporary heterochromatic eyes, they can probably take turns speaking.
Maybe Mei herself didn't notice it, but the other self, who had been watching everything from a bystander's perspective inside her body, could naturally easily deduce who had drugged her.
Mei and Bronya were the only ones in the dormitory at the time. If it wasn't her, who else could it be?
Kirataka did not hide anything from Mei, the victim, and just nodded slightly.
Although he did say that he would not tell Theresa and the others what Bronya had done, Mei, as a direct victim, naturally had the right to know the truth.
"I can guarantee that she won't hurt you anymore."
"…Who is the person who ordered Bronya?"
Sister Lei Lu asked in a deep voice.
She knew Mei's attitude even without asking, so she wouldn't bother Bronya.
But behind Bronya, there must be someone else directing her to do things, and that person is the one she wants to seek revenge on.
"Just as you thought, Cocolia, it was she who destroyed Nagazora City, and... it was also she who sent Mr. Ryoma to prison."
Kirataka said in a low voice.
She destroyed your family, sent your father to prison, turned the city you lived in into ruins, and even wanted to capture you, take away the Herrscher core in your body, and then kill you.
The feud between Cocolia and Mei can be said to be a blood feud in every sense of the word.
"...I will settle accounts with her one day."
Sister Lei Lu said coldly.
This is not an easy matter. As an executive obsessed with power and strength, the old fox has always attached great importance to her own safety. It is not so easy to find out her location.
I'm afraid that even other anti-entropy executives would not be able to understand her exact location.
But one day he will come to settle accounts with her. Not only with Mei, but he will also settle accounts with Cocolia for Nagazora City.
Thinking of this, Kirataka just nodded slightly and said:
"Until then, I will be with you."
Then he pointed to the breakfast on the table and said:
"Okay, eat your breakfast first. I prepared two servings for you. I'll go get Bronya and Kiana."
"no!"
Mei suddenly refused nervously.
"...?"
"I can't eat two servings. If you eat too much, I'll gain weight..."
She explained somewhat aggrievedly.
Body management for girls is a very important matter.
After all, not all girls are like Kiana, who has a physique that won't gain weight no matter how much they eat.
............
"Delicious!"
A moment later, Kiana, who was pulled out of bed and still wearing pure white pajamas, sat at the dining table and made her own comments.
Of course, she gave the same evaluation of most of the food: "delicious."
"Stupid Kiana, don't talk while eating."
The silver-haired girl at the side said mercilessly.
"I'm going to say, Bronya, Bronya--"
Kiana said as she reached out and pinched her face.
"Woo——"
Bronya's little face was badly ravaged, and she could only barely make a "wuwu" sound.
Such a scene was new to Kirataka, but judging from Mei's calm reaction, it was already a common occurrence.
Well, this kind of life is not bad.
——In fact, like Bronya, he likes this relatively peaceful life.
Boxing with Fu Hua, listening to Yae Sakura talking about the Far East five hundred years ago, flirting with Mei from time to time, teasing Kiana, or playing games with Bronya, it was much more colorful than his previous school life.
But this superficial peace is doomed to be short-lived, as there are many people eyeing them covetously behind the scenes.
Even Kiana and the others' seemingly wonderful school life now is just Otto's deliberate act.
Whether for himself or for the people around him, he wanted to protect this tranquility, so he had to have strong enough power...
Before the expected crisis arrives, try to increase your strength as much as possible to deal with it.
He has a very clear idea, and for this purpose, he has already planned his next itinerary.
——He was going to leave the Far East and go to England alone.
