Volume 8, Chapter 10 “Little Sister”

Part 1

After getting hated by Colin, Leon’s depression was terrible.

Sitting on a sofa in the living room of the mansion, Leon looked down with a gloomy expression on his face.

The psychological damage seems to be great.

When Ange saw that, there was actually one thing that bothered her.

While watching Leon from afar with Livia, she expressed her concern.

“Doesn’t he hate a little sister existence? Is it possible that she also hates me, a little sister?”

“I-I wonder?”

Livia was also having trouble answering.

Ange has an older brother, Gilbert, above her.

Therefore, Ange could also be called a little sister.

She was a little worried when he openly said he didn’t like a little sister.

“There’s nothing I can do to improve this. I don’t want Leon to hate me.”

“It’s okay. It’s absolutely impossible for Leon-san to hate Ange.”

“Y-You’re right. But Leon’s dislike of sisters is quite extreme.”

“Thanks to Louise-san, he was able to overcome older sister, though.”

When Louise’s name came up, Livia had a complicated look on her face.

She was the woman Leon had befriended in the Arzel Republic, so this was not an interesting story for the two of them.

However, they were both concerned about Leon’s dislike of sisters.

That’s also understandable when looking at how he usually behaves.

When Jenna and Finley arrived in the living room, they found Leon and started to stir him up to get back at him for his usual behavior.

“Foolish brother. I heard that Colin still hates you? Don’t tell me, you didn’t realize that Colin was in love with Noelle? You’re still so insensitive, aren’t you, foolish little brother~.”

“Normally you’d notice ~. Aniki is really too dense.”

They laughed at Leon, but he didn’t react well, perhaps he was too shocked.

“Go away”

Jenna folded her arms, grinning and looking down at Leon, who was sitting.

“Where’s that talkative guy we used to know? How does it feel to be hated by Colin, whom you cared about so much? Didn’t you piss off Nix, too? How does it feel to have brothers who hate you? Do you want this onee-sama to comfort you ~? “

“It’s the worst. I don’t give a damn if you guys hate me, but it hurts my heart to have my brothers hate me.”

Maybe Leon really thinks so, and his chest seems to be in pain.

Finley’s cheeks tightened.

“You should have a little affection for your sisters.”

“Sorry, you guys’ shares are sold out.”

As usual, he is salty towards his sisters.

Jenna and Finley looked at Leon, one eyebrow twitching as if they were about to yell at him.

Ange and Livia were rather relieved that he could talk lightly despite his depression.

Ange watched the three of them from a distance, and understood how Leon felt.

“Well, it’s that. There’s a minimum of courtesy even among blood relatives. Besides, the barons and the viscountesses have been terrible so far because of the kingdom’s policies, so it’s probably unnecessary.”

“Neither of them are bad people, though.”

Neither Jenna nor Finley is a villain at heart.

However, there is a problem with their attitude.

It could be said that the environment was one that made Leon dislike them, but that doesn’t explain some things.

“Jenna is harder on Leon than he is on her, but Leon himself seems to dislike his little sister more. Is there a reason for this? ―― Livia?”

When Ange looked at Livia, she was in serious thought.

Noticing her gaze, Livia hastily asks.

“W-What is it?”

“Is there something on your mind?”

“Etto ―― yes. But it’s still hard to explain.”

When Livia said she couldn’t explain it well, Ange decided not to ask any more questions.

Ange let out a small sigh.

“Is there any way to cure his hatred for little sister?”

She probably thinks so even more because she is a little sister.

Then Luxion approached while floating.

Livia’s shoulders twitched and she put a slight distance between herself and Luxion.

It seems that she is still wary.

Luxion didn’t seem to mind and spoke to two of them.

[Are you concerned about Master’s dislike of little sister?]

.

Part 2

“Oi, is this really going to cure Leon’s dislike of little sister?”

[There is no mistake in my calculation]

“Don’t lie to me. Leon has been driving you crazy, hasn’t he?”

[Master is an exception. It would be a problem if the rare case is referred to.]

As she listened to the conversation between Ange and Luxion, Livia saw her own appearance.

(This might be a little embarrassing)

After moving to another room, Livia and the others changed clothes and waited in the room.

It was all Luxion’s idea.

Livia was anxious, but she was also curious, so she went along with Luxion’s plan.

(Little sister, huh ―― Before, Marie-san called Leon-san onii-chan. And I didn’t think about it too much at the time, but she definitely said a second life. Second, what does that mean? Why did she say onii-chan at that point?)

It was an event before the final battle with the Principality.

Livia chased after Marie, who ran away, and was told that she would return everything at that time.

Although she didn’t think too much about it at the time because she was confused, looking back on it now, a lot of things seemed unnatural.

(Even though they had been in conflict for so long, Leon-san had also forgiven Marie-san since then. He hates her attitude, but he doesn’t reject her ―― There are times when they act like they’re real siblings. Is there something?)

Although he verbally hates Marie, he sometimes shows the same attitude towards her as he does towards Finley.

But it was difficult to hear that directly from Leon.

Leon has many secrets.

He even hid Luxion’s true appearance until recently.

They didn’t know if he would answer if they asked him, and they didn’t want to burden Leon by asking him poorly now.

(I wish Leon-san could tell me more about things. But for now, I want him to rest)

In fact, the reason the two of them cosplayed was not only to cure his dislike of little sister.

When they heard that Leon would be better, there was a part of them that took Luxion’s suggestion.

Livia also took the trouble to change her clothes to cheer up Leon, who had been pushing himself so hard.

In the room, besides them, there was Cordelia, who had helped them change.

Now she was about to leave the room.

“Then, I will call the Marquis.”

“I-I count on you, Cordelia”

“Yes”

Cordelia’s eyes were looking at Ange, who looked embarrassed, but Livia noticed that there was a strange sparkle in her eyes.

As Cordelia left the room, Ange checked her appearance in the mirror.

She was dressed in a miniskirt maid’s uniform.

The head is adorned with ornaments that resemble the ears of an animal, and around the hips is an ornament that resembles a tail.

A figure of a maid with cat ears was reflected in it.

“Are you sure this is the right thing to do? If Leon draws back, I’ll cry!”

Livia completely agrees.

“I’m going to cry too”

Previously, they had worn maid outfits at school festivals, but never accessories that imitated subhumans.

By the way, Livia was wearing droopy dog ears.

Why are the two of them dressed like this?

It was all Luxion’s plan.

[No problem. Master will be overjoyed. Just call him “onii-chan” and he’ll be cured of his dislike for little sister in no time. I can guarantee it]

Livia questions Luxion, wondering about the length of her miniskirt.

“Is he really going to be pleased? He saw us in our maid uniforms at the school festival, and he was happy, but I don’t think he was that happy.”

Ange seemed to have the same anxiety.

“Will the ears and tail of an animal please Leon? And――W-Will calling him “onii-chan” really cure him from hating little sister? On the other hand, won’t he become conscious of little sister and avoid us?”

Ange is usually a strong person, but she was afraid that Leon would hate her.

When Livia sees that situation, she thinks it’s very cute.

(Ange is cute today too)

There was a gap between her and her usual self, and Livia was pleased with the current situation just to see her like this.

Luxion made a dumbfounded gesture that he often made to Leon in front of them ―― a shake of his head.

[Neither of you understands anything. Master is simple. Even though he hates little sister, he has changed since he met Louise. If the two of you spoil him with your appearance, he’ll fall easily.]

Livia holds her hand.

“I don’t want that.”

If Luxion’s explanation is true, it means that he is simple and shifty.

He would be happy with whoever spoiled him? Such anxiety sprouted anew.

Meanwhile, it seemed that Leon was getting closer.

When Luxion warns of Leon’s approach, he disappears and hides.

[Master has arrived, hasn’t he? Please follow the instructions, both of you.]

Having come this far, all they had to do was be prepared.

Ange shows her spirit in a maid’s outfit with animal ears and tail.

“We come this far, whether we succeed or fail, just do it. I’ve prepared myself.”

Livia is also inspired by Ange’s motivation and shows her determination.

“You’re right. We can’t be shy, can we? I’m going to really spoil him too! But it’s kind of embarrassing to call him onii-chan.”

“I usually use onii-sama, so is that better?”

At the last minute, as they begin to think about this and that, there is a knock at the door.

“Are you both here ~?”

When they heard Leon’s carefree voice, they responded and invited him in.

“It’s open”

“You can come in.”

As the door clicked open, Livia and Ange struck a cute pose.

As the image of an animal, it’s like raising their hands slightly and pouncing on him in a cute way.

The first one to speak up was Livia.

“I’ve been waiting for you-woof, onii-chan”

” ―― Eh?”

In the end, she didn’t know what to call him, so she just called him onii-chan.

But even though her face was red with embarrassment, she leaned closer to Leon and made sweet sounds.

(T-This is so embarrassing! But if it makes Leon-san feel better, it’s a small price to pay.)

But Leon froze in surprise.

Then Ange hugged Leon.

“I caught you, onii-sama. Play with me or I’ll go wild-nya~”

Ange must have been embarrassed, but she added “nya~” to the end of her word as Luxion instructed.

But there was no response from Leon.

From that situation, it seemed that they had failed.

(Luc-kun’s a liaaaaaar!)

She blames Luxion in her mind, but suddenly, Leon collapses to his knees.

“Onii-chan!”

“Onii-sama!”

When the two of them tried to hug him as quickly as possible, Leon was in tears.

When they looked upon his reaction in confusion, Leon burst into tears of joy and sobbed.

“I’ve just come to an understanding here. A little sister is not cute. But a figure like a little sister is cute.”

Leon cries with happiness when they call him onii-chan, and he lets out his true feelings.

“I’ve always wanted cute little sisters like these!”

He must have compared them to his actual sister.

After being adorably spoiled by Livia and Ange, Leon’s sense of value about a little sister had changed.

Ange is at a loss.

“Are you cured of hating little sister?”

“No, I don’t like little sister. But I’ve added the idea that an unrelated blood little sister is cute to my dictionary.”

He hates little sister, but a figure like a little sister is cute ―― Leon’s sense of value has certainly changed.

It’s just as Luxion says.

Livia was not completely satisfied, but she swallowed it and forced herself to accept it because Leon looked so happy.

“I’m glad you liked it “

“Thank you, both of you. You look great in that outfit.”

Looking at Leon’s happy face as he took both of their hands, he understood that this outfit was indeed effective.

Ange was satisfied with Leon’s expression and felt relieved.

“I’m glad you enjoyed it.”

“By the way ―― You’re here, right, Luxion”

The friendly mood ended here.

Leon sensed that Luxion was hiding and his face changed when he called out his name.

As Luxion appeared, Leon stood up.

[You were overjoyed. But you should be more careful with your reactions. They were getting anxious.]

“Is that all you got to say? What do you make them do?”

[They asked me for help in curing your dislike of little sister, so I gave them a hand. I also gave them some advice on Master’s sexual preferences.]

“You lied to them about me having a cosplay interest, didn’t you?”

[――It’s a joke. I tried to imitate Creare too, but jokes are difficult. I didn’t think the two of them would take it seriously. But I’ll make a picture of the two of them later. How many would you like?]

“Prepare three of each, including the spare.”

Livia, who was listening to the conversation, gradually became expressionless.

The same goes for Ange next to her.

Cordelia, who had shown Leon to the room, came from outside the room to talk to Luxion.

“I’d like three of each. Ah, I’d like to have about thirty of ojou-sama’s as a souvenir. How much is it?”

“I don’t mind, it’s free”

“I’m kind of sorry about that.”

Ange watched Cordelia as she started to talk that she was going to bring back an embarrassing photo of herself as a souvenir.

Then, they turn their gaze to Luxion, who deceived them.

“――Oi”

Ange called Luxion in a low voice.

Luxion turned his red lens on Livia and the others, but as he slowly moved away, he left the room and ran off somewhere.

[Both of you, Master is feeling better. The mission is a success.]

Livia and Ange forgot about their own outfits and ran out of the room to chase Luxion.

“Luc-kun!”

“Luxion, I need to talk to you!”

The two of them were running around the Bartofalt family mansion in their maid’s uniform.

.

Part 3

“Ah, this photo is nice”

“This picture shows the cuteness of ojou-sama. I’ll be sure to give them to Vince-sama and Gilbert-sama.”

Later.

I was dividing the photos I received from Luxion into a pile with Cordelia-san.

Cordelia-san wanted a picture of Ange, and she couldn’t resist.

“This one is good, too. This gesture is also nice. Oh, here is a young lady who has let her guard down! This picture is too much for the gentlemen, so I’ll retrieve it for you.”

“Don’t you love Ange too much?”

“Of course. I’ve known ojou-sama for a long time. As soon as I started serving the Duke family, I became ojou-sama’s valet. She was really lovely then.”

As Cordelia-san began to talk about how cute Ange was, her usual cold impression was considerably softened.

Even though she’s dealing with me, she’s happy to tell me about Ange’s childhood.

I pick up a single photo.

It was a picture of the two of them in a cute pose.

“―― So cute”

As I tucked the photo carefully into my pocket, Cordelia-san closed in on me.

“Marquis, are you listening to me?”

“Y-Yes!”

“Then I will tell you a very special episode of ojou-sama’s life. That was when she was in the throes of her engagement to that fool.”

For now, I understand that Julius is treated as a fool by Cordelia-san.

If anyone were to hear it, it would be a crime of disrespect, but Julius’ value is so low right now.

I don’t feel like correcting it, partly because of what he did to Ange.

As it was, Cordelia-san made me listen to her talk about Ange for the rest of the night.
