Loner Harem Meister Chapter 21

After we finished with the move during the weekend, Yuki and I started living together. From today on, our usual life went back on track.

"Morning, Yuki."

"Good morning, Yuuki."

Looks like she was making today's breakfast. How should I say this, this feeling of living with your lover is pretty nice.

"You could've woken me a bit earlier if you were making breakfast," I said.

I'm from the type who can't stand these small details, so I tried to make it clear by asking her.

"It's okay. I am making it for you, after all. Besides, your nutrion balance will be fine as long as I make meals for you."

I just realized this but, she's intending to make dinner as well. Well, if she's insisting on doing so, I guess I should let her do as she likes. Her cooking was good anyway.

"Thanks. I'll be back after changing to my uniform."

"I understand. Breakfast should be ready soon too."

[ED: Starting to think he's falling for his 'Mom', and given his past… I also think he's beginning to realize it himself, I hope at least]

"Okay."

I went back to my room to prepare for going to school, washed my face in the bathroom before heading to the living room when suddenly the intercom went off.

"Yuuki, can I ask you to get that? I am busy right now."

"Alright."

I walked in the entrance hall and opened the door.

"Ya! We came to eat breakfast."

"… Thank you for the meal."

It was Hinata and Utano. Well, it's not like I was expecting someone else.

"Um, do you women know something about being reserved?!"

"I casted that word aside in a far away place."

"Don't throw it!? Go back now and pick it up again!"

"C'mon now. I'm getting in."

"… I'm hungry."

It's pretty tiring to hold a conversation with this two right after waking up. For the time being, let's move to the living room.

""Hinata, Utano, Good morning."

"Morning, Yuki."

"…Monrning."

"I am done preparing breakfast, let's eat it together."

"We took our seats with the same formation as the one we took in the restaurant.

Everyone: "Let's dig in."

Everyone joined their hands and then began eating. Today's breakfast is bean miso soup, meat and potato stew, rice, pickled vegetables and fried eggs. A balanced breakfast indeed, I'm impressed.

"How do you find it, Yuuki?."

"It's really delicious. With this, I can do my best for the entire day."

"Is that so? I'm glad."

Yuki seemed to be happy after hearing my impression.

"Come to think of it, did you know?.." Hinata began.

"…What?"

How would I know anything after being asked such a vague questions?

"There is student in the third year, Kiris.h.i.+ma Sakuya, who likes to pick fights. Last year when I saw her, I was amazed after glancing at a slight trace of an injury on her face."

Yuki spoke interjected. "Such students are in your school? Yuuki, be careful to not get caught up with them."

Well, there are countless times when I was involved with this kind of stuff. But still, I never heard of that name. Maybe she's a part of those delinquents groups.

"I know, but, I have been involved with delinquents various times in my past, I don't remember anyone with the name of Kiris.h.i.+ma among them."

Utano reflected for a bit before she said, "… I was once told to investigate her folder during a staff meeting. Apparently, she doesn't belong to any group of that kind and there were no eyewitnesses claiming so as well."

If an Ex officer said so then it should be true.

"Hinata, How often did she get injured last year?"

"Humu… quite often I think. Something like every 2 or 3 weeks."

That's pretty strange… in many ways.

"If that was the case, then she should be famous of being a quarreler. This was indeed weird; if she's fighting every 3 weeks, that would make it 17 times a year, yet there were no eyewitness information, and she's not a part of any dangerous group. At least there should be a few rumours about her being a delinquent, but nothing of such did reach my ears."

"Humu… As I thought."

What did she mean being as I thought? She seems to be aware of something.

"I was indeed amazed when I thought she was fighting, however, I always thought that her strike spots were unusual."

"By unusual, what do you want to say?"

Yuki asked seeming to be intrigued in the discussion.

"The hitting trace after a fight should normally be around the sides or the face, but Kiris.h.i.+ma had a good number of bruises on her back as well."

[ED: For a nurse, you're terrible at your job.]

"… If she likes to fight alone then she should be defending her back too. In case she doesn't watch her back, it is clear that she will end up defeated."

I see… this is getting further suspicious.

[ED: Seriously, it's obvious as h.e.l.l!]

"I can't help but feel curious about it. Well, just be careful and not get involved with her. She's your uppercla.s.sman anyway, which makes it less likely to happen."

"Right, we're in the middle of our breakfast so let's switch to a cheerful topic."

"You got a point. Well then, let's see who can guess Yuki's underwears color."

[TLN: I say black.]

[ED: Same]

"… I'm up to play."

"Don't play!? Rather what the heck are you thinking about?!"

Really, Hinata is just…

"I vote for black."

"… White."

"What are you choosing, Yuuki?"

"I say in the middle, Gray."

Wait- I answered in reflex!! What in the heaven did I just say!!

"Yuuki?"

Ah. No good. Yuki is p.i.s.sed. I can distinctly see her hidden wrath.

"You peeked at me! Eeh, this can't be helped. Yuuki, you're in that age after all. Holding an interest in a women's undergarments is only natural. However, I still think that peaking is not a good habit."

How is this possible? I hit the right color? Aren't I amazing? Even though I just randomly made a guess.

"Um… Yuki…"

"Yes?"

Uwaa, the smiling face, those scary eyes. I guess I'm left with no other choice than… fleeing away!

"Nothing! Actually, I need to go to school now, later!!"

"Yuuki. Please wait."

Let's ignore her call and escape!!

"Well then, Utano and I should go too."

"Fufu, Hinata, Utano? We still have something to discuss."

"Yes."

"Right."

Looks like the two of them are the sacrifices. I managed to get away with my life.

"I somehow made it outside the house. But more importantly, Yuki wears gray, huh…"

I ended up guessing it unintentionally earlier. Well, let's apologize to her in the part-time job.

"Aight, let's go to school now."

And like that, I headed off.0
