When did you get here? I mean, how did you know where to go?

When I got to the front of the room where I felt a presence, I knew who was inside by the sound of their talking. Well, they seemed to be talking in as low a voice as possible, but they were caught off guard by being in the room, and furthermore, they didn't seem to have calculated my physical abilities, so they were talking at a level that I could hear if I concentrated a bit.

Besides, the fact that Amur is here means that Chris-san is likely to be running around the city looking for Amur, who isn't here. One of the reasons Chris-san hasn't come yet is because of her argument with me, so maybe I should go look for her just in case, and I also thought it wouldn't be a good idea to eavesdrop on a woman's story, so I was about to leave the place for now.

As I said, Primera is a very strong potential competitor.

I heard Amur's voice say. Furthermore.

'Family background, personality, style....all top of the line. The only thing Jeanne can win is time spent and youth....

'Aura, I don't know if Miss Primera will be upset with you.

'Yes. Besides, Primera-san is twenty-three years older than Tenma-sama, so she's not too far removed.

'Exactly. Besides, a five year age difference is more realistic compared to Chris. If you think about the kids, it's just fine. Chris may look young, but he's already twenty-nine years old and on the edge of a precipice, with no end in sight.

It's true that compared to Chris-san, Primera-san's five years difference in age is not even close... But that's why I'm afraid that Chris-san will use any trick he can get his hands on. But.....

''It's good that she was playing big sister and showing some leeway, but Temma-san is surrounded by only young kids, and she doesn't pretend to show any interest in her. Furthermore, here, in many ways, your higher-ups are ready to enter the fray as your rivals... I can't predict what Chris will do. Well, I don't think he's going to resort to illegal means.......I don't think sleeping and aphrodisiac drugs will work on Tenma-san in the first place.

It was dangerous to stay here any longer, the alarms in my head were ringing loudly. If it was just Jeanne and Aura, but with Leni-san, an agent, and Amour, who has wild instincts, the slightest mistake would give away that I was listening in.

Thinking that, I decided to leave the place, trying to be more than usual, trying to pull out and sneak around.......

'Ah! Ugh!

From a bend in the direction of travel, an interloper (Cain) emerged. The interloper (Cain), of all things, tried to shout my name in a loud voice. I had been concentrating on my nerves to escape, and the moment I saw my fingertips coming from the corner, my body moved, anticipating and understanding the actions of the interloper (Cain). As a result, my hand held the interferer (Cain)'s mouth before his mouth could form a "Te" and I succeeded in bringing him to the end of the bend.

In hindsight, that would have been one of the five fastest reaction times I've ever lived. It was a move that could only be described as a miracle, and I was so impressed with my own movements that I wondered if that was what it meant to 'enter the zone'.

'Mwah!'

Can I help you, miss?

'I thought I saw Temma there but I was wrong.

A few seconds after I hid around the corner, the door of the room I had been listening to earlier was thrown open and Amur was checking out the corridor. However, at that time I was already lurking around the bend a bit farther away, lurking breathlessly, so it seems that Amour couldn't notice me and got it wrong.

Even Cain, who was my only worry, felt my desperate presence and quieted down........

I'm sorry, Cain. I didn't recognize you.

'Whoa! Goh-ho-ho, whoosh........goh-ho, I thought I was going to die....

Cain, who thought he was being quiet, simply held me by my mouth and nostrils, and even more so, pressed against the wall, unable to move.

'What a cruel way to come to kill me I thought... what did I do to deserve that much?'

I apologized wholeheartedly to Cain, who seemed to be pretty pissed off, but Cain wanted to know why I did that much. So I told him honestly........

f*ck! 

They laughed at me a lot. And maybe it was because I was being careful not to be loud, but I was rubbing my forehead against the wall and banging on the wall over and over again. It wouldn't make sense to kill his voice then, I thought, but since the room the women were in was across one bathroom and one room from each other, he couldn't seem to hear the impact and the sound. Nevertheless, if they didn't, they would be found out by some kind of ammunition.

''For now, let's move out of the way.

Yeah, well... let's move into the room I'm supposed to be using, which is....................

Still not laughing hard enough, Cain began to lead the way to his room, struggling to stifle his laughter.

''You can talk normally here. This room is for guests and all the walls are soundproofed.''

It seems that Cain, who has used it several times, has managed to secure a nice room.......I also thought about asking him to tell me if he found another nice room, but if he asked poorly and got a room next to Primera, it would be a lot of trouble, so Primera came and I'm going to choose from.

'But then again, it looks like those three are starting to get impatient with the arrival of Primera too. Well, I suppose it has something to do with the fact that they saw the baby, saw her pregnant, and saw a woman with a girlfriend.

It's true that those three people were a surprise to me as well. Well, partly because they are acquaintances, the shock was even greater than Jeanne and the others, but.......well, let's not mention Serna, but as for Mrs. Omini and Mr. Flute, it's partly because they went too far beyond what I expected.

Even if I can't help but be aware of it, even if it's directed at me..........

'Temma, you'd better not say that much even if you think about it.

Cain laughed when he admitted that that was a gaffe. It wasn't polite to say it was annoying to be favored by a woman in a quirky way, but

'I was crying because Rion is so unconnected to women, and finally someone who seems to have a pulse is subtly out of Rion's league and has turned into a stalker... If Tenma said that in front of Rion, he would cry blood and go crazy... I might.

It seems he was just trying to get that line out. Sure, it's something that Rion would have done, but....

'We'll have to be careful about that. On that note, what shall we do, Chris?

Since we've gotten to the point where the conversation is cutting to the chase, I've decided to end this conversation here. I didn't want to continue this conversation any longer and have Cain tease me about my female relationship.

''You don't have to worry about your seniors, do you? If you leave me alone, I'm sure I'll come here eventually. Besides, if I go looking for you here, I don't feel like I'm lost! 

... "I'm sure you're right. 

If Cain agreed at all, he was going to leave the place immediately in the name of finding Chris-san, but contrary to his expectations, Cain chose to leave Chris-san alone. Well, it's true that Cain was right, Chris-san would have been "treated like a lost child! And although I'm about to bend my navel... Cain clearly has a face that chooses to mess with me rather than look for Chris-san.

And just when I thought I was going to be forced to leave the scene, as bad luck would have it, I

Uh ... that was a bad idea.

Like a wolf at the back gate, Albert appeared with no damage left out........

I'm sorry, Albert. Get out of the way!

It looked weak for a wolf, so I decided to push it away without a care in the world.

'Gofu! You know, that part....

It seems that the place where I placed my hand to push him away (...) was the unlucky place where Primera had hit him, and Albert easily collapsed from his knees. Moreover, because it wasn't powerful enough to knock him out, Albert was unable to escape from the pain by passing out, and Albert was writhing in tears.

''d*mn it, he got away! Albert, you better have your shit together! Utterly and utterly!

Cain, Cain help.

Sorry, not now!

I could hear such a conversation from behind me, but I didn't care and ran through the hallway. And at the end of the run.

Temma you can't get away!

The two of you, please call for backup while me and your daughter are in tow!

Cheer for who?

'Aura call the knights and I'll go get Slarin!

I was being hunted down by the ladies. That and Cain, who decided that he couldn't stop me, said, "Temma was eavesdropping on the women's secret stories~! Because I shouted in a voice that seemed to tell me to echo throughout the mansion.

Amour, who responded to that voice first, chased me around, Leni-san, who was ahead of me in that direction of travel, used a lasso, and Jeanne called out for Slarin, who seemed to be the most dependable in the gap. In addition, Cain was giving directions from afar, but Albert, who was still down, and Aura, who wasn't keeping up with the groove, were not helpful.

'Mmmm ... Temma, you're stubborn!

Miss, get out of my way! I mean, we'll just duck it!

'Geez! Mr. Leni, don't catch me!

Slarin, please! And you're not going to participate in the quicksand.

Oh, Slarin. You'll be able to watch the game from here.

Ugh my stomach is still throbbing.

The capturing of me as a target was continued in front of everyone except the participants, who were watching. In addition, the knights had refused Aura's request, saying that they were sorry because they were afraid of the captain (primera). They were then appointed as tea fetchers by their grandfather, who was watching the scene. 

It was good that Slarin didn't turn to the enemy, but instead, Amur's movements were getting better and better, and Leni-san's actions were becoming less and less merciless. Aura's scream earlier took the place of Aura, who was coming at me when I dodged a throwing net thrown by Leni-san. This made the cast nets useless, and Aura, one of the forces in the war, was also useless, but since Aura wasn't useful to begin with, it could be taken that there was no one to get in the way, and that might have made it easier for them to move. Besides, the stock of cast nets still seems to be in place...

I can't miss! Hmmmmmmm!

When he tried to run away from Amur with a triangle jump, Amur used the same technique that the protagonist of the basketball comic book used to use on defense... but...

I guess I'm a little short on height!

Even if the smaller Amur used that technique, he couldn't prevent me from doing so. And then I saw the exit beyond where I crossed Amur. In this moment, I knew that I was going to win........

Huh? Why? !

Aura flew in. Literally.

Amur seemed to switch his strategy the moment I ducked, and grabbed Aura, who was tangled in a pitch net and lying on the floor, and tried to turn around and throw her away. However, he was a little hesitant about throwing the Aura, but it fell quite a bit in front of me and rolled over in a rumble.

'Yo! Oh, shit! Hey! Aw, shit! ........What?

I ducked the aura that rolled down the street, but I stepped on an accessory (a casting net) attached to the aura, and I approached the front door while losing my balance, almost falling down, and grabbed the door knob as I tried to regain my position....... Just before that, the knob dropped and the door opened. Beyond that.

Yikes!

Blowfish!

There was something soft. Later, it also sounded like a crushed frog.

''Ahhhh!''

'Dear Primera! Just keep getting them!

The soft thing was Primera, and the crushed frog was Chris-san.

The primera in its pushed down form looked quite confused, but before I could get out, Leni-san's instructions flew out and the primera obeyed and hugged me........on top of the crushed Chris-san.

''Gnnnnn....At this point, I will meditate on that. More importantly, we need to secure Temma first!

Mr. Leni, noose! Give me the rope!

Use this.

'Ho ho ho! Let me tie you up! 

With quick coordination, I was in my custody in no time at all...

"Brother Cain? For some reason, I'm tied up with you...

'I'm sorry, I didn't notice. Well, you'll have to be patient because if Primera lets go of my hand, Temma will run away.

Absolutely, I knew it was on purpose. For various reasons, I can't see Cain's face, but I knew that this was a voice that I was absolutely enjoying. Primera doesn't seem to have realized it yet, but my current state is very bad. What's bad.

You guys! How long are you going to hold on to me!

Right now, Primera and I are hugging each other from the front. Well, my face is a lot lower than normal........to put it bluntly, I'm burying my face in Primera's chest. It's nice and soft, but it's not good for a lot of things if it stays like this any longer. So.

'Ah! Temma, he's gone!

While Primera's attention was on Cain, he cut the rope with his magic and ran away. But due to the thick mental fatigue, it was all he could do to get away from the Primera for a bit. So.

Slarin'! Come on! Shilomar and Solomon, keep everyone on their toes! I'll give you a belly full of meat as a reward!

I decided to call Slarin and take refuge in the dimension bag inside my body. I asked the two foodies to hold me back until Slarin arrived. The gourmands heard the reward I offered and immediately stood in front of Amur and his friends as if to protect me. They stood in front of me, drooling profusely from their mouths.

'Slarin, hide me until the heat dies down.

When I asked Slarin to do so as he came to my side, he nodded once and his mouth widened. On my way into Slarin's dimension bag, I glanced at the Primera and our eyes met for a moment and were quickly deflected. Well, I was quite embarrassed, although I was a sycophant as I quickly deflected it too, but I was quite embarrassed.

'Once we're settled in and out, we'll hit Cain for now.

With that in mind, I decided to escape reality in Slarin. Most of all, I couldn't quite fall asleep even when I crawled under the covers. As soon as I finally got to sleep, Shiroumaru woke me up.

'All right, meat. If you eat now, you won't get in for the night, so I'll just have some.

Dinner has been a long time coming for Shiroumaru, so I decided to feed him some meat in the category of a snack since it's been a long time since he's had a full meal.

But first we have to wash our faces. Shiroumaru's making my face sticky.

My face was sticky from being licked by a drooling Shiroumaru, and I smelled a little... well, a lot. Shiroumaru looked apologetic on the surface when he heard my words, but his tail was wagging a lot, so I guess he wasn't sorry. Well, the usual.

'So this is ... the cafeteria. Good thing I'm prepared. Thanks, Slarin, thanks.

When I emerged from the slarin', I found myself in the dining room. Perhaps they woke me up in this place so that Shiroumar and Solomon could eat the meat soon.

'Well then, let's rent the kitchen and cook some meat,'

Drool was dripping from Shilomar and Solomon's mouths in response to my words. There was quite a bit of it dripping and it was wiped clean by Slarin, but it still didn't seem to stop.

'For now, you can eat this, too.

When I threw the jerky I was making for storage, they sucked on it in the air and were already swallowing it when it landed. I'm worried that they didn't chew it properly, but since it's those two, they might want to ruminate about it later. I handed Slarin some jerky to eat while I was cooking for them and I hurriedly decided to cook the meat.

It's done. It's still hot, so eat slowly.

As I placed a pile of roasted meat on a platter on the floor, the two of them plunged their faces into the pile of roasted meat, squealing with glee.

'So what are you guys doing?'

After finishing the things that needed to be prioritized, I called out to the members here.

In the corner of the cafeteria, Amour, Jeanne, Aura, Leni-san and Cain were made to sit upright. And in front of them was Chris-san with his arms crossed and a grim face, Primera with a slightly angry look on her face, and Albert, who was dying. As for Albert, he's not sitting upright, he's sitting in a chair near Chris-san and Primera, holding his belly and suffering... but he's not suffering that badly because I pushed him, is he?

I have a question for you, Temma, but would you mind sitting here for a moment?

Chris-san said it like he was asking me to, but he didn't seem to have any veto power over me. Well, the place I was told to sit down was not next to Jeanne and the others, but the chair across from Chris-san, so I decided to obey honestly.

'What I want to ask you is that the cause of the commotion at that time was Temma-kun's eavesdropping... what do you mean by that?'

I figured that if I answered this the wrong way, I'd be in line there too, so I cleared my head a bit before answering.

'First of all, if you say it's because of eavesdropping, I'd say it is. It's just that I didn't eavesdrop with the intention of doing so, I just overheard him when I was about to speak to him at the door. It sounded like we were having a private conversation at the time, so I tried to leave the place without saying a word.

So, why did you hold Cain down?

'I knew that if Cain walked in there, it would definitely complicate things. In fact, right after I disappeared with Cain in tow, Amur was out of the room trying to find me.

'So when Amur came out of the room, Temma, you were already away from the front of the room? And after that, they moved right away to Cain's room.... 

Chris nodded as he looked at the paper he took out of his pocket to make sure that what he told me was correct, and he sighed. And Amur and the others, who were being made to sit upright, gradually became pale as my explanation progressed.

'You're white, Temma. Well, it was Temma-kun who caused it, but that was within the realm of no problem, but it was Cain and Amur and the others making a lot of noise that caused it to happen... or rather, Cain was almost the source of the problem.

'Later, when Cain suggested that I should go find Chris, he said it didn't matter to him.

Cain, what does that mean?

When Chris heard what I said, he glared at Cain. Cain was desperately trying to deny it, but the words I broke out may have been a little different from that time, but the nuances were similar, so Cain's excuses didn't have the usual snap to them.

'So, what's up with Albert?'

When he spoke to a limping Albert, he pointed to the primera sitting nearby and

I've been hit again...

He said. Pointed out, the primera panicked.

I didn't have a choice. I just thought it was your brother who was in charge of this whole thing.

So I guess that's what it is.

I decided to end the conversation because of Albert's usual bad behavior. He hadn't been able to make eye contact with Primera yet, but he had given her time to recover to the point where he could talk to her.

As I watched Cain being interrogated by Chris-san in silence for a while, a servant from the mansion came to inform me of a visitor. Moreover, they said that the guest was not Albert or Primera, but me.

For a moment, I was suspicious when I was told that he was my guest, but after hearing his name, I decided to hurry and head to the parlor. Normally they don't let their guests through the mansion, but the servant seemed to have heard the name of the guest from Primera beforehand and let him through the mansion instead of outside.
