Chapter 98: SEED OF POSSIBILITY 3

“What’s wrong Kou-chan, you want creeping advice?”

“Why do all the residents of this house have the strange thinking circuit built into their brain?”

No, I guess we only have two huh.

“I’m kidding. So, what happened?”

Nanami said that she would talk to her herself but something like this should be better if I tell her myself.

Especially so when I won’t give the seed to her this time.

[Ara], she said that immediately after I took three of the seeds of possibility out and shown them to her.

“Hee, you’ve got something amazing here.”

“Yes, they are.”

She looks at them without breaking her smile. Besides that look of understanding something on her face, there’s not even a slight surprise in her bearing.

“You understood what this is but you don’t look surprised at all.”

“Among all of my predictions, this is the biggest one you know. Even if I looked like this I am plenty surprised here. I don’t have any power left to tell a joke now.”

“…..You really don’t look surprised at all.”

“I am surprised you know? Well, I was surprised in a lot of meanings though…..”

“A lot…..?”

“Yes, a lot. I actually want to ask how you get it in detail but it’s not something I should interfere after all.”

I don’t feel like answering too.

“And? You have something to talk about right?”

I gave her a small nod.

“I am hesitating who to give this to.”

“Hmm, just to be sure but you already used it on yourself right?”

“I did. Both me and Nanami.”

“Hee…….”

Saying so, I finally see the look of surprise on Marino-san.

“Nanami-chan huh. What are you planning to do with the rest?”

If you call her like that in her face she will get angry you know.

“That’s what I want to talk with you about. I am thinking about giving them to everyone after this.”

“Hmm, you have only three right?”

“Yes, three. No, there’s only three left.”

Marino-san’s eyes become narrower.

“Let me hear what you are thinking. You actually decided who to give it to already right?”

“Well, yes I did…..you know me well. I have been thinking about it for a while.”

“But it’s Kou-chan after all. If you didn’t think it through yet you wouldn’t come to consult me right?”

Well, I think that you should have some conclusion in mind before consulting someone though. Well, never mind that.

“So the people I am thinking about giving it to”

“Yup yup.”

“I think I will give it to Sempai and Ludi for sure but there are Nee-san and Claris-san left. Since I can’t give it to one of them I am thinking about giving it to that person and Marino-san after I can get more of them.”

At those words, Marino-san put her hand on her cheek and look at me with a tired expression.

“Wait…..you plan to get more?”

“Yes, I am.”

There are several ways to obtain those seeds. The easiest way would be the event dungeon at Susanoo Martial Art Academy, I think? I can get one at Amaterasu Academy’s event too but it will be quite a while before I can do that. Of course, there are places that I can get them immediately as well.

Marino-san closed and massage her eyes then take a breath. After that, She raises her face a little and smile.

“Thank you, Kou-chan? But I don’t need it you know. There’s no meaning even if I use it after all.”

Her word circling in my head. Even if she used it there would be no meaning? That…..

I try to think about it but Marino-san steps forward and hugs me. After that, the thought in my head disappeared.

When she breaks away from me she smiles.

That was soft.

“I am really happy that you considered giving it to me. You see, they are something so valuable to the extent that I can’t imagine you know.”

“…..Is that so.”

“Yeah, that’s why it is very hard to accept, it might be a good idea if you have them consume it without knowing you know.”

“Without telling them? That would be hard right?”

“The seeds are not that big, right? If you slip them into their drink then won’t it somehow work out?”

Well, it might but.

“If you need a decoy or camouflage then I can create one for you, you know?.”

“I will put that on hold for now…..for the time being, I have to think about whether I should give it to Nee-san or Claris -san first…..”

“Oh, that’s right. You can give it to Claris. Hatsumi……probably doesn’t need one, I think saying that it’s fine to give it to her later would be more correct.”

“…….to Nee-san?”

“I think you can leave mine and Hatsumi’s portion for later.”

“Why?”

“Hatsumi doesn’t seem like she wants to become stronger after all. Well, she recently changed the way she thinks though.”

Certainly, I don’t really see Nee-san particularly want to become stronger.

“Moreover, Kou-chan still might not know but Hatsumi is very strong you know. Even if Claris, Yukine-chan, Kou-chan, and Ludi-chan fight her together I don’t think you guys would be able to beat the serious Hatsumi you know.”

Did I mishear that?

We can’t win? Certainly, the current Sempai doesn’ possess the strength of the three strongest in Magiero yet. Unlike president Monika and the weird founder saint, who were ridiculously strong from the start, she is only moderately strong.

However, even now I think that she should be quite strong already. That Sempai and Claris-san together would lose against Nee-san?

Certainly, I had a mock battle against Nee-san several times already and lost to her rain of magic bombardment. However, can she win against Claris-san, Sempai, me, and Ludi with that?

“Hatsumi is really strong you know? It’s not a joke. She still has more to learn if you compared her to me though.”

Nee-san was not one of the heroines. That’s why I don’t know her status from the game.

No, she played an important role by teaching that magic to Iori in the game. That magic that could only be considered a cheat.

If she can teach it then can she use it as well?

In the first place, Nee-san was……

“That’s why if you are going to give it to someone then give it to Claris okay? I don’t know whether will she accept it though. If you are worrying about Hatsumi then go and talk with her first.”

“Yes……”

There are too many things to think about. The thing about Marino-san, the thing about Nee-san, and the thing that those two have in common, the Hanamura family. Moreover, that something might be related to me too.

“Ah, that’s right. About the creeping stuff.”

“Yes….Wha?”

“Recently, Hatsumi often doesn’t sleep in her own room so be careful okay?”

I sighed involuntarily.

She is smiling like that because she knew where Nee-san is sleeping and deliberately said so right? That’s the only possibility.

Nee-san is mostly sleeping in my room after all.

After I talked with her a little more, I left the room. As there is a lot of stuff to think about I climb the stairs to get back to my room. It was on the way there that I saw Nee-san exiting Nanami’s room.

………..Nanami’s room?

“Ah, Nee-san.”

“Nn.”

Nee-san is still expressionless but seems sleepier than usual, it looks like she would be immediately asleep as soon as she gets to her room. Then it’s better to talk to her now.

“Nee-san, can I talk with you a little before bed?”

“I don’t mind.”

“Then…..let’s change places and head to the room first.”

[Un], Nee-san replied and walk to my room with no hesitation. She picks up the orca doll, Marianne who was sitting on the chair and sit on the bed. I think about pouring her some drink and reach for the kettle.

When I was about to do it I stopped my hand and think.

Eh, this is my room right?

Ludi and Nanami were making themselves home in my room as well. Is my room not my room anymore? Well, it’s fine though…..

“What do you want to talk about?”

Nee-san said so and turns toward me.

“Right.”

I pour Nee-san a chamomile tea and take out the seed of potential.

“It’s pretty, this is the first time I see one.”

“Yeah…..it’s called the seed of possibility.”

Nee-san’s expression shook for a moment.

“Amazing, you did well. Where did you find it?”

“Yeah, at the Academy dungeon…and so I have something that I have to apologize to Nee-san about.”

“Apologize? About?”

The thing that I want to tell her is that I will surely give her the seed but I want her to wait for now. That was all, that was supposed to be all. However, there is much more I want to tell her.

What I want to convey was supposed to be my gratitude.

She didn’t help me directly but she always helped and took care of me.

When I talk to her, mysteriously, many things that I want to talk about came up to my mind and we ended up talking about a lot of things. Nee-san’s favorite movie, and book. In return, I told her mine as well.

After a long talk, it ended with, [ I won’t give the seed to you, Nee-san. If I find another, I will immediately give one to you, I want you to wait for me]. After I told her that, Nee-san slightly lowered her eyes.

After she drank her chamomile tea she stands up and slowly moves over to sit beside me.

She pulls my ear closer to her and said.

“Thank you, but you can leave Onee-chan’s portion for later. It’s not something I particularly want and it would be fine even if you don’t give me one too.”

“Eh, but.”

“Since I already have Kousuke, I don’t need that”

She hugged me and pat my head. Eventually, she said [I’m sleeping] and changes her clothes. She then takes Marianne with her and crawls into bed.

I was stunned by how big her chest was but didn’t forget to retort.

Nee-san. Both Marianne and that bed are mines you know.
