(Chastity Reversed) The Legitimate Wife War: How I, a Harem-Hater, Ended Up Creating an Ultra-Eccentric Harem with a Villainess, a Sadistic Beauty Teacher, a Scheming Classmate... etc. - Chapter 113: Eucharis And The Third Mother

Eucharis SIDE Y

“……So, any excuses for this failure?”

“……[Y-sama], I sincerely apologize. I never expected White to betray us.”

“……What are you saying, Mam?”

She sat in her chair and crossed her legs again.

Just that gesture made Mam feel as if the room’s temperature had suddenly dropped.

“?!”

“There are no excuses……right?”

“N-no, there aren’t!”

From Mam’s perspective, this incident had many unpredictable elements and felt almost like an accident.

Who could have predicted that White would betray them, drowning in love?

Who would have thought that the target, Akizuki Rio, would become so confrontational it was like she was a different person?

And the biggest miscalculation was that insolent brat.

Who would have expected him to charge at guns with his bare body? A normal man would tremble and wet himself.

Just thinking about it made Mam’s blood boil.

How dare he insult our noble purpose!!

However, the emotion that Y felt upon receiving the report was different from Mam’s.

“……Sigh You’ve grown weak too.”

What could be seen from the woman Y in front of her was not anger, but disappointment and pity.

“N-next time! Next time for sure……”

“What will you do? What can you do?”

“First, we’ll deal with White……”

“It’s too late to silence her now. That timing was the only chance. She’s probably already talking about us.”

……Well, what she knows was limited, Y added.

“Then, what does Y-sama think we should do?”

“After all, White is just a low-level operative. Even if she knows I exist, she doesn’t know who I am. At most, she knows I’m a government official, right? Besides, she hardly knows anything about Eucharis’s actual structure. She probably knows about members from the same facility, but we basically don’t let them interact otherwise. So White’s case isn’t that pressing an issue. Well, it would be better if it weren’t known, but.”

Few people knew the organization’s situation in the first place.

Even Mam knew almost nothing.

For times like this, I’d made sure almost no one knew my face.

Even now, she was wearing a mask in front of Mam and changing her voice with a voice modulator.

For her purposes, her public face could not be exposed.

“……I sincerely apologize!”

“Forget it. It was just my misjudgment.”

The old woman’s apology in front of her didn’t matter.

What’s important was what to do from now on.

“Give me another chance!!”

The sight of the old woman pressing her head against the ground.

Sigh……disgusting.

I could kill her, but it would dirty my eyes and make this place bloody. (T/N: Author changed from third to first)

But if I don’t say something, this creature won’t seem to move.

Really troublesome.

“Let me realize your dream, for the realization of a society without men!”

“……You should go to prison and be ashamed of your failure. If there’s another opportunity, I’ll consider it then. First, think about why you failed.”

“Yes! Without fail!”

When I glanced at those around me to take her away, they removed Mam from this place.

“……Still, that man……Takeda Kyoya, was it? He seems a bit different from other men.”

Whether it was the Kuzuryu incident or this incident, it could be said that man’s intervention blocked us.

He appeared conveniently every time.

“I thought about making him a symbol for men to be criticized by women, but……things don’t go well.”

……That said, looking at the whole picture, failures were quite few, and this failure was also trivial.

The harem system still hasn’t penetrated, and women’s eyes toward men in society have deepened, accelerated by the recent Kuzuryu incident.

This rift between men and women was deepening as intended.

That’s exactly why it would be troublesome if they got along and lived together, becoming a strange model case for the harem system.

Things like Hosho’s engagement annulment or Akizuki’s engagement annulment would be welcomed with open arms.

“I did manipulate things within the scope of harem system personnel selection, sending in all the troublesome people who have no genetic problems with him.”

Yet somehow it’s failing. And to top it off, White was even becoming a wife.

It was also problematic that the Hosho and Akizuki families were more decent than expected.

“……Well, fine. Eventually there will be dropouts among those fiancées. I’ve already planted something for that purpose.”

It wouldn’t go like before.

Because the parents were finished first.

“I need to make him realize that he’s a powerless, petty monkey who can only think with his lower body. He should know that he’s a wild animal suited to being kept.”

Hmm, Y pondered while resting her hand on the armrest.

“……Though occasionally going out for fieldwork might be worth it……huh.”

That man should probably be confirmed in person.

That man has the danger of causing unexpectedly outrageous things.

……While I’m at it, I could also check the results of the experiment I’m currently advancing.

Fortunately, that man has provided plenty of samples.

“If this research succeeds, we won’t have to deal with men……we won’t need to see or buy disgusting men.”

She traced the mask on her face.

She stroked the mask that enveloped her, calming her irritated feelings from thinking about men.

“……Takeda Kyoya, the world has deeper darkness than you think. The women around you are also……”

I can’t wait to see that insolent man lament when he knows everything and can do nothing about it.

For that purpose too……I will.

Y decided her course of action at this moment.

“Let’s make you dance and torment you.”

Because I absolutely love seeing men’s misfortune.

Y felt her unpleasant mood from earlier ease a little.

SIDE Takeda Kyoya

A day passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of the three-way meeting arrived.

The place Tachibana-san designated was an expensive restaurant in Ginza, where the other party had apparently already arrived.

Coming today were Tachibana-san and her mother.

“Sigh……”

“Are you nervous, Takeda-sama?”

“Of course I’m nervous. I was nervous during Tadashi-san’s time too, you know?”

I don’t feel like I’ll ever get used to this no matter how many times I do it.

“It didn’t seem to me that you were nervous.”

Whether it was flattery or not, Kurokawa-san said such things. Well, let’s think that I hid it well enough not to look unsightly.

“I was desperately putting on a brave front.”

The one speaking to me to ease my tension was Kurokawa-san in butler attire.

Kazari-san, who usually comes with me, unfortunately wasn’t here.

Apparently she had other things she had to do today and couldn’t come.

I was told this at the last minute.

But Kazari-san seemed a bit strange when she was leaving.

……Somehow, she had an atmosphere of subtly not wanting to show her face.

I tried to ask more about the reason, but since I was told at the last minute, I didn’t have time to ask.

But I don’t have time to think leisurely about it now.

“Well, it’s about time for our appointment, so shall we go?”

Inside, the two were already waiting.

Tachibana-san was standing in her school uniform with a small smile.

Sitting next to her was a woman.

When she saw me, she stood up gracefully.

“Excuse me……nice to meet you!”

“Nice to meet you, welcome.”

Tachibana-san bowed her head and the woman next to her showed a gentle smile.

The woman next to her was probably her mother.

Somehow, she was a woman who kept herself neat and tidy.

Her makeup was heavy, with purple eyeshadow and curled false eyelashes, and bright red lipstick on her lips.

She wore large pearl earrings and a pearl necklace around her neck.

Her clothes were a floral dress with a white jacket, and she had a corsage on her chest.

The dress only covered down to above her knees.

Somehow……young—that was the best way I could describe this mother.

Frankly speaking, she was gaudy.

“I’m this child’s mother. My name is Tachibana Karen. I hope we can have a long relationship……”

This was my first encounter with Tachibana-san’s parents.

I suddenly remembered Kazari-san’s words and bitter expression.

[They’re different from the people Kyo-sama has met so far.]

I still didn’t understand the meaning of those words.
