Fufufu, she was laughing like crazy, as if a devil was in front of me.
“Wh-What do you think you’re doing…?”
“You know *Pft*; I couldn’t resist the temptation…”
“You’ve got to be kidding me…!”
However, if the instructor hadn’t noticed the panting, there still won’t be any problem─
“H-Hey, Theo-kun… What was that voice?”
Agh, she heard it!
“It’s a d-dog, instructor! A stray dog wandered in earlier, and the reason I’m taking a bath is that I’m washing it…!”
My excuse sounded forced.
“Really…?”
“It’s, it’s the truth! Hey, stray dog? (Bark, please!)”
“You know, Theo-kun, I’m more of a cat lover person.”
“That’s not the point!”
Argh! Why is she so messed up!
“H-Hey, Theo-kun… I just heard a woman’s voice….”
“I-It’s just your imagination…!”
“Do you mind if I check the bathroom… for a minute?”
“C-Can you not?”
“I’m sorry, you don’t have the right to refuse.”
─Damn, it’s over… She’s downright suspicious.
“*Sob* Theo-kun, I’m so sorry I couldn’t squeal like a cat.”
“What I wanted you to do was imitate a dog…!”
“But it’ll probably be alright. You have nothing to worry about, okay?”
While I was lamenting, for some reason, the mysterious woman seemed so relaxed.
She seems to be an acquaintance of the instructor, and she might be in a higher position than her?
With that in mind, I noticed that the instructor entered the changing room from the hallway.
All is lost. I’ve done everything that I can do.
I couldn’t think of any excuse, and even if I did, I shouldn’t even do so.
All of this was my fault. I’m already resigned to accept the instructor’s preaching.
“─Theo-kun, I’m going to open it now, okay?”
The instructor’s voice.
The moment of judgment approaches.
And immediately after, the door of the bathroom is opened.
I saw the instructor peeking into the bathroom.
And then─
“EHH!?”
Sure enough, the instructor looked surprised.
Of course, she’d be surprised to see me with a woman who might or might not be an acquaintance of hers.
“─Neesan!?”
Yes, I was taking a bath with her sister.
Hn…?
Eh…?
─SISTER!?
“Hey Miya~, long time no see. Are you doing well? Hehehe.”
“Why, why is Neesan here…?” (TN: neesan / older sister)
“What a stupid question. Of course, I’m here to see my beloved Imouto.” (TN: ‘’imouto’ / younger sister)
“That’s absolutely a lie…”
“You’re awful for calling me a liar. But having a reunion with Miya is not my main purpose.”
The two of them disregard me and have a conversation with each other.
If there were no lies in what they’ve told so far, then─
The two of them are sisters.
This person who was soaking in the bathtub with me was the instructor’s older sister…?
(Seriously…?)
So that was the reason why it felt like I had a strange connection with her.
“Rather, why are Neesan and Theo-kun taking a bath together?! Quickly get out of there! That’s indecent!”
The instructor said fumingly and angrily.
After that, I got out of the bath and headed to the living room.
“Ah! That’s right. I’m Miya’s older sister. Are you surprised, Theo-kun?”
The black-haired woman who said she was the instructor’s sister was sitting on the sofa, smiling triumphantly. I also sat down at the counter and turned my attention to the instructor, who had decided to not go to work.
“Instructor, is it true that she is your sister?”
“Unfortunately so. Sarasha Samuel. My biological sister.”
“Just call me Sara, okay?”
The instructor’s older sister Sara-san told me in a friendly manner.
Even so, both sisters look so young.
Both of them have retained the youthfulness of their teen age and are aging gracefully.
Particularly Sara-san. The instructor’s older sister is, of course, older than the instructor, and she may be in her late 20s or even over that age bracket, but she has a lovely face that doesn’t look that way.
“What do you do for a living?”
“Neesan, If you can’t answer, you don’t have to force yourself, okay?”
The instructor pointed out.
What is it…? is it a profession that is difficult to say? Night entertainment? Or maybe she’s unemployed?
“No, it’s okay, I’ll tell him. He’s an honest person, so it’s alright. Also, it has a lot to do with Theo-kun, you know?”
“So, besides being the instructor’s sister, you’re indirectly connected to me?”
“That’s probably the case. Well, what do you think is our connection?”
She didn’t give me any time to think as she asked the question right after.
And immediately afterward, she gave me the answer.
“Me and Theo-kun, we are connected by weapons.”
“Weapons─ Don’t tell me she’s…”
A suspicion crossed my mind. I want to dismiss it as impossible, but I didn’t think Sara-san would say that as a joke, and I pictured the possibility more clearly.
The only weapons that can make me feel connected to someone are my two favorite swords.
It’s because the two swords are not commercially available and are custom-made.
It was a complex pair of swords made with the soul of the famous craftsman, Elt Kuraien.
In other words, if my hunch is correct─
“You are… Elt Kuraien?”
“Pin-pon! You’re correct!”
Sure enough, Sara-san nodded approvingly.
“I appreciate that they call me <<master craftsman>>, and for some, I’m a hero behind the scenes since I support the musketeers. Of course, Sarasha Samuel is my real name, and Elt Kuraien is my name as a blacksmith, so don’t get it mixed up.”
Her self-introduction, spoken as if it were a natural thing, shook me to the core. I don’t want to use cheap words like “impressed” or “thrilled,” but rather a passionate feeling akin to longing.
It was because of those two swords that I was able to soar to new heights. There is no doubt that it was what supported me in my prime.
“Sara-san.”
That’s why I found myself moving in front of Sara-san and unintentionally clasping her hand. The instructor seemed a little frustrated, but I didn’t care and thanked Sara-san.
“Thank you for making my weapons. I’ve wanted to thank you in person ever since long ago.”
“Well, well, well. Thank you, too. It was worthwhile to make that good weapon for you.”
“But I was surprised. To think that Elt Kuraien was a lovely woman such as Sara-san…”
The older sister is a master craftsman, while the younger sister is one of the strongest female musketeers.
I can’t imagine how much these sisters are contributing to the Musketeer’s Association.
“This information should not be shared with anyone, okay?”
“Heh~, Theo-kun, are you someone who will tell a secret once seduced?”
“N-No, such a thing is…”
“Fufu, I’m sorry. I was merely teasing you, okay? But yes, you can’t tell anyone. I trusted Theo-kun and told you the truth about me being the master craftsman. If you ever leak the information to anyone, you’ll take this Sara-oneechan as your beloved bride ♪.”
“Beloved b-bride…?”
“That’s right. We’ll leave Miya alone, and we will build a happy family together, okay?”
“Alright, that’s enough. Please stop with the jokes.”
The instructor interrupted us, looking unamused.
“Neesan, can you please not make any strange demands to Theo-kun?”
“Iyah~, Miya~, your face is scaring me.”
“Whose fault do you think it is…?”
“Eh, I wonder?”
“It’s your fault, Neesan!”
“Heh~. You don’t like the idea of me getting my hands all over Theo-kun, your pride and joy?”
“I-It’s not like that. I’m just asking you to stop bothering Theo-kun with your ridiculous demands…!”
“That seems to be the case, Theo-kun. That aunt is very possessive, isn’t she?”
“And you’re like a grandma! Hmph!”
She’s good. She handled the instructor like a child.
As expected of an older sister, she knows how to toy around with her younger sister.
“By the way, neesan.”
With a tired expression, the instructor began to speak again.
“Why did Neesan come to my house?”
“Ahh, well, the thing is, my home and office on the mountain got burned down.”
So that’s probably the reason why the master craftsman was staying with the village chief. But was that indeed the truth?
“… A fire, you say? How did it happen?”
“I’m embarrassed to say that it was because I mismanaged the fire. But isn’t it funny that a blacksmith’s house caught fire? Fufufu, a blacksmithing place being on fire.”
“Of course, it’s not funny!”
It’s certainly not funny, but Sara-san can’t help but giggle to herself. She has a world of her own, after all.
“Neesan, you’re not hurt, are you?”
“As you can see, not a single burn, and still kept my beautiful skin.”
“Whew, thank goodness…”
The instructor breathed a sigh of relief. Sara-san was a treasured family member, after all.
“So you don’t have a place to live at the moment, do you?”
“Th-That’s right. So please, Miya, let me stay here for a while. Please!”
“… I’ve never seen anyone asking for a favor while comfortably sitting down on the couch.”
The instructor exhales in exasperation while Sara-san gazes at her with a carefree look.
Even if they share the same blood, their personalities are entirely different.
The little sister is the strong one, while the elder sister is the awesome one.
“I’ll make you pay the rent properly. Okay?”
“Well, if that’s the case, then there’s no reason to refuse.”
After a moment, the instructor gave such a judgment.
“It is an unavoidable circumstance, so I’ll allow you to stay here.”
“Really? Yay, Thanks a lot~. Do you want a kiss as a thank you?”
“I-I don’t want it.”
“Mou~ you’re no fun. You’re so selective yet refuse to accept anything, that’s why you’re still single at your age, isn’t it?”
“Hey…! Y-You’re also the same as me, neesan! You’re older than me, so you must be even more miserable!”
“Well, yeah. That’s why I’m going after Theo-kun ♪.”
Sara-san gave me a wink as she said this.
Eh…?
“W-Wait a minute, neesan. Theo-kun is off limits!”
“Why? Theo-kun does not belong to Miya, right?”
“Y-Yes, that’s true… but still…”
What is this…? I’m interested in how the instructor will answer.
─What does the instructor honestly think of me?
The other day, when I tried to get the answer to that question, it got lost in the haze of Sharon and Erza’s intrusion, and so I wanted to get a clear answer.
“Why don’t you make it clear, Miya? Is Theo-kun and Miya in a relationship? Which is it?”
“That’s, well…”
The instructor paused for a moment, then said.
“We’re not… me and Thea don’t have anything special going on.”
It was true, but it was a little painful to hear her say that.
一On the other hand, Sara-san became motivated after hearing this.
“Hoho, I see. Fufufu. So it means I can do whatever I want to Theo-kun without any problem.”
“But that doesn’t mean you can do anything extreme!”
“But it’s okay for us to take a bath together like we just did, right?”
“Out!” (TN: Safe and out / no )
“Ehh~.”
“Even if you’re not happy, I’m not going to lower down the rules! Theo-kun is still a minor, and you are not allowed to do anything sexual with him!” (TN: Really, Theo is a minor? )
“So, Miya, who is saying all of this, didn’t do anything suspicious to Theo-kun, did she?”
“…”
“Oya~? Did I hit a bull’s-eye?”
“Sh-shut up! If you do anything weird to Theo-kun, I swear, I’ll never forgive you!”
“Well, well, what shall I do?”
An enraged instructor and Sara-san who can toy with her with a calm expression inside one house.
That’s right.
For the time being, I can openly say.
Starting now, my life is going to be quite noisy.
