Chapter 1416. Next Mission / Oui
「 Try playing it 」
Anya translates what I say, Clito timidly reached for the violin in the case.
Her ass is in pain from the spanking, but still, she holds the violin and the bow and plays it.
No, it’s a little different from a normal violin playing posture.
No, her posture is different from how you usually play the violin.
Judging by that stance, I knew that Clito was not taught by the right instructor.
「 ……! 」
The gazes of everyone in the dining room gather at Clito.
Clito slowly plays music.
That’s…
It’s an awkward performance, but it sure is music.
Still, Clito learned to play violin somewhere before she was kept by that crazy boss from Southeast Asia.
Her eyes look serious, sweating on top of her nose. Clito’s desperately trying to remember the song.
If she shows that she can play the violin, she believes that I will recognize her more than the other girl assassins
Before long, her performance ends.
「 Yeah, that’s good 」
Nei took the initiative and gave Clito applause.
Ruriko, Kurumi, and others also clapped.
Clito’s confused, so she’s not bowing.
She’s just staring at me.
She knows that I’m the only one who can assess her value here.
She doesn’t need the praise of other girls.
I…
「 Matsumoto-san, Miki-san 」
I call the younger sister of the Matsumoto siblings, the one who plays piano.
「 Yes? 」
Miki’s surprised that I suddenly called her.
「 Do you know the piece she just played? 」
「 Yes, it’s probably one of the exercises they teach you when you first start learning violin 」
I asked. Miki-san replied.
「 She made mistakes in some places, but I think it is 」
The details might be different from what Clito remembers, or maybe the one who taught her didn’t know the correct piece.
「 I’m sorry to ask but could you play the right song? 」
「 What? 」
「 She needs it 」
I’m sure of it.
Miki-san looks at Clito.
Clito’s staring at me with a worried face.
「 I understand 」
Miki opens her violin case.
Then, she takes a beautiful pose.
And started playing…
「 …………!!!!! 」
It’s definitely the same piece Clito just played.
But, it’s completely different.
The music is beautiful. Her skill is far better. And she understands the piece better.
It’s between an adult and a child, no, you could say the difference is between an elementary student and a professional.
And above all, even though it’s just a practice piece, Miki’s performance has the beauty that touched the hearts of those who played it.
Before long…
Miki-san’s piece ends.
「 !!!!! 」
This time, the girls in the room all clapped their hands.
Even among the thirteen girl assassins, some of them clapped their hands.
Miki-san put down her violin and thanked the audience./
「 Uuu, uuuuuu 」
Well, I know it would happen.
「 Uuuu, uwaaaaa!!! 」
Clito’s crying. She weeps while holding the violin and bow.
She tries to show off her value by demonstrating her skill of playing the violin.
But if someone performs better than her, she has no place.
「 Anya, tell her to stop crying 」
「 Got it 」
Anya releases her Qi towards Clito.
「 Hii!! 」
Clito stopped crying out of fear.
「 First, put the violin back in the case, take care of it so it doesn’t break or get scratched 」
「 I’ll make sure of it 」
Tsukiko uses her Miko power to control Clito’s body.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt「 ……???!!! 」
Clito puts the violin back in the case, not knowing what’s going on with herself.
「 Don’t cry so soon, you’ll get your feelings out and feel better, but you’ll lose the opportunity to see what’s wrong 」
I tell Clito and Anya translates.
「 Not just you Clito, everyone else too 」
I look at the other girl assassins.
I look at each of their faces to make sure they’re listening.
「 I’m not interested in what you have now. As you just saw, some girls can play the violin better than Clito, and your physical abilities and fighting skills aren’t even comparable to Edie, Mitama, and other bodyguards I have 」
They already are aware of that during the morning training.
「 You girls are much more beautiful compared to ordinary girls, but I have women who are much more beautiful 」
Our family is filled with beauties.
「 That’s why I don’t value you for what you have right now 」
Rather, they can’t understand Japanese, and if they snapped, they’ll do nothing but kill the other party without restraint, and they need to be monitored all the time.
For me, the current girl assassins are just a minus.
「 But that doesn’t mean that you girls are worthless now. I took you all from Kyouko-san because I see your values 」
The girls stare at me.
They’re listening to Anya’s translation.
「 Even if your skills don’t reach the family, you have things you can do for us. First, think of what you should do to get accepted. It might not be as great as helping out in security, maybe in cooking, cleaning, you may think that those are ridiculous, but start with what you can do first 」
I speak clearly.
「 But, don’t do it without permission. If you’re to do something, ask me first. From now on, anyone who does anything without consulting me will get the same spanking as Clito just had earlier. Do it twice and you’re banished. If you do anything to soil the honor of our family, you’re dead, don’t forget that 」
I can’t let any scandal like Clito attempting to take a guest’s violin without permission happen again.
「 If you want to try something, improve yourself even just a bit, then talk to me. If you want to be a bodyguard, then I’ll pick who you’ll learn under. If you want to be a martial artist, then I’ll ask Margo-san and Edie to help you. If you want to cook, then talk to me, or Katsuko-nee, or Motoko. If you want to become a manager in the future, then I’ll find a way for you to study. Don’t hold back. I don’t care how much trouble it brings, I’m your master. Whatever it is, you have to tell me first, understood? 」
Anya translates, and the thirteen girls look at each other’s faces quietly.
Especially the leader, Dolly Lu’s face.
「 If you understand then reply 」
Anya translates my shout and then.
「 Oui! 」
Dolly replied.
「 Oui 」
Anna too.
Then, the other girl assassins replied to me with 「 Oui 」
「 They’re saying they understand 」
Anya said with a smile.
「 Clito still hasn’t said anything 」
I looked at her.
「 Clito, you still don’t get it? 」
The two of us stared at each other.
「 Oui 」
She replied with a small voice.
「 Good, you can cry now 」
I said.
「 Uuu, uuuuu, waaaaaaaa 」
Clito’s crying loudly once again.
「 You sure are a handful 」
I approached the crying Clito and squat down.
I embraced this Persian timid girl.
「 ……???!!! 」
Clito’s body turned stiff from surprise.
「 I’m your master, I’ll give you a hug when you cry 」
I rub her back as I embrace her gently. Clito begins to relax.
「 Uuu, uuuu 」
Then, Clito continued crying with her face buried in my chest.
************
「 It’s about time you let go 」
After two or three minutes of crying in my arms, Anya tells me with a smile.
「 If you don’t stop, the other girls will get jealous of her. 」
Oh right, the girl assassins are watching.
Especially Anne Roze and Ososo.
「 She’s mentally calm now so it should be okay. 」
Tsukiko’s checking on Clito’s mental state.
Then that’s good.
「 Anya, if you’d please 」
「 Okay, got it 」
Clito looks at me worriedly, but I smiled at her and told her to go to Anya.
Then.
「 Come here. 」
I beckoned Anne Roze and Ososo.
The two of them came over holding their drill spears.
「 …………! 」
They look at me worriedly.
The two overreacted to Clito’s attempt to take Miki’s violin without her permission by killing Clito with the drill spear.
That means that these girls feel uneasy too.
They fear that if they offend me, even for the slightest thing, I’ll kick them out.
「 Let me hug you two as well 」
I first hugged Anne Roze
「 ……!? 」
The half German half Turkish girl is quite fleshy in the embrace.
This must be her first time getting a hug from a man, she’s nervous at first.
After patting her hair, she’s getting docile.
「 Next, Ososo 」
I also embraced the dark-skinned girl.
「 ……!! 」
She has thin and tight limbs, and her dark skin smells good, like honey.
Ososo’s getting accustomed to my embrace as I stroke her milky blonde fizzy hair.
「 Good 」
I let go of Ososo.
「 You want to say something? I’ll get it translated 」
Anya’s looking after Clito so Ruriko comes to me.
But.
「 No, I have nothing else to tell them 」
These girls see that I’m angry.
But also, I’m not ignoring them. That’s enough.
They don’t need words.
That aside.
The girl assassins gather in front of me one after another.
I thought so.
They need to feel it with their skin after the verbal pledge.
Words aren’t enough, you need to feel it with your body.
「 Ruriko, I’m giving them hugs in order, tell them to line up 」
「 Yes, Onii-sama 」
I also gave the remaining ten girl assassins hugs.
*******
「 Here, ice cream 」
After hugging all of the girls, Nei comes from the kitchen with ice cream.
Of course, everyone has their share.
Sakurako, Shie-san, Kurumi, and the girls helped out, bringing everyone a plate of ice cream.
Sweet food after the fuss, as expected of the big sister of the family.
I see why Minaho-neesan asked me to bring Nei with us to the mansion.
Nei’s bright personality saves us at times like this.
「 Somehow, I’m sorry for the fuss 」
I finally sat down at the table with the guests.
Matsumoto Maki-san, Miki-san, and Igarashi Izumi, sitting with Marika, Erica, and Mariko.
Miki-san’s holding to her violin case.
「 It’s okay now, they won’t try to get it anymore 」
I told her, Miki-san.
「 Yes, but… 」
Miki-san’s grandfather wants to sell the violin her late father bought her.
The incident with Clito made Miki-san remember her problem.
「 I’ll take care of it, you can eat your ice cream Miki-san. 」
Erica smiled and told Miki-san.
They’re of the same age, and they have been together the whole day so she’s already at ease with her.
Erica probably already told them that she’s a daughter of a prestigious audit firm. And Erica’s also known as the start of the middle school in the school for the young ladies, thus she’s elegant with her speech and gestures.
Miki knows that she’s not a girl who would do anything to hurt her precious violin.
「 Then, please 」
Miki-san gives the violin to Erica, then Erica held it with care.
Miki-san felt at ease and took a scoop of her ice cream.
「 My, this is delicious 」
「 That’s homemade 」
Nei also joined our table.
「 Uhm, that was a lot of trouble, wasn’t it? 」
Matsumoto Maki-san asks me.
The fuss around Clito has calmed down somehow, but that sure was a lot.
「 Oh, Erica-san told them the gist about those girls 」
Mariko reported.
I don’t think she told them about those foreign girls are actually former assassins who already killed people.
Probably told them that they’re orphans taken from Southeast Asia.
In the meantime, the reason is unknown, but we decided to take custody of these thirteen girls.
Mariko and Erica don’t know much about the conversation between Kyouko-san and me.
「 Well they just came here, so it’ll take a lot of work. But, it won’t take them long to adjust to the family 」
I look at the thirteen girls eating ice-cream happily and said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm「 Is that so? 」
Maki-san asks curiously.
「 Yes, they’re smart so as soon as we show them the possibility, they will soon choose their paths 」
I think that once Clito, who’s the timidest, uses this opportunity to get accustomed to the family, the other girls will follow her lead.
Then.
「 Can I have a moment? 」
Anya brings Dolly and Anna.
「 These girls have something to consult you with 」
The leader figures of the girl assassins, Dolly and Anna.
Both of them seem to be Southeast Asian, but, they also have some tint of European blood, and their noses are quite tall.
「 Sure, I’ll hear it. What is it that you want to consult with me 」
I just gave them that order.
To talk to me first instead of doing things without permission.
「 …!!! 」
Dolly tells Anya something.
Anna also speaks.
「 Oh, I see. So that’s it 」
Anya listens to Dolly and Anna and then looked at me.
「 What did she say? 」
「 Well you see, she and her sister… 」
Anya said with a smile.
「 They say that they want to get pregnant with your child right now 」
Huh?
「 What’s your reply? 」
Anya laughs.
「 P-Pregnant? 」
Igarashi Izumi, who has been quiet because of the atmosphere, speaks out in surprise.
The Matsumoto siblings are also surprised.
Dolly and Anna look young.
Matsumoto Maki-san and Igarashi Izumi-san, are the same age as Marika and me.
Meanwhile, Miki-san is the same age as Erica.
Girls of nearly the same age say that they want to get pregnant, it’s natural that they are shocked.
Naturally, Nei, Marika, and Erica are unfazed.
Our family already has Yukino pregnant with my child, so they’re not surprised.
Of course, the one who got her pregnant, me, also isn’t surprised.
「 Ask them why 」
I asked back.
Anya translates for the two.
「 If we want to calm down the thirteen, then someone has to give birth to your child as soon as possible 」
Anya translates what Dolly and Anna say.
「 If that’s the case, then they should do it first 」
I can understand Dolly and Anna’s logic.
The girl assassins are worried that I’ll abandon her, that I’ll kick them out of this place.
If they give birth to my child, then they can make a bond through their child.
If that’s the case, they can live here in peace, knowing they won’t get kicked out so suddenly.
However, they’re all virgins.
Their boss was a crazy woman so they never experienced sex.
They should fear pregnancy and childbirth.
That’s the reason why Dolly and Anna, the leader figures of the group, took the initiative to have sex with me, to show them how to get pregnant and give birth.
The other girls also fear bearing my child.
But…
「 That reason isn’t accepted 」
I rejected it.
Anya translates it for me and the sisters look confused.
「 They’re asking why 」
Anya said.
「 You should feel sorry for the child if they’re born for that reason 」
I…
「 Dolly and Anna, if you want to have children, then that’s okay, but your reason for wanting a child is to make your companions feel better, and that’s wrong 」
They shouldn’t get pregnant just to show their companions how they give birth
「 Every child should come to this world loved and needed by their parents. You shouldn’t give birth to a child just for the convenience of the parents 」
I said. Anya translates;
Dolly and Anna’s faces looked harsh.
「 They say that they weren’t. They were born without the love or need from their parents. That’s why they became like this 」
Born in the slums of Southeast Asia, abandoned, orphaned, and they fell to the fate of living as girl assassins.
The idea that all children should be born loved by their parents is just an ideal that’s not real, that’s why Dolly’s angry.
I get that.
But…
「 I was too, my parents abandoned me 」
I…
「 That’s the reason why I want my children to be born from love, blessed by their parents, so they never become like us 」
Because our ideals are different from reality, we have to work hard to realize that ideals.
