Onee-sama's Legacy

Translated by Mlzkzr

One day in the early afternoon, I was reading the latest edition of “This year’s Orthia” in my study, thinking that today would be the time for me to take it easy.

“Hello, I’m here to play again today.”

“Yeah, I know.”

I sighed and put the open photo book on the desk.

Life is not always as it seems.

Whenever I try to relax, someone will always interrupt me.

What can I say, is it fate?

It’s written as fate and read as “destiny”.

I gave up and went to Kaori, who broke through the ceiling and entered.

“Next time you come, please enter through the door.”

“It’s all right, servant no. 1024”

“Leave it to me.”

Servant No. 1024 appeared out of nowhere.

The ceiling was repaired with the same magical touch as the time when Kaori had blown out the walls.

“Look, it’s done”

“No, no, it’s not like I just need you to fix it.”

“Rather than that, what are you reading?”

“Listen to me……”

I formally quipped, but I gave up with a sigh.

Kaori peered into the photo album I had open on my desk.

“What’s this?”

“This year’s Orthia, she’s probably the hottest beauty of the year.”

“Do you like this kind of thing?”

“Like, you said…… well, it’s a boy’s dream.”

I saw never-seen-before Orthias in the photo book.

At first glance, a photograph using magic may show the same figure as the person on paper, but in many cases, it lacks the charm compared to seeing them in actual.

I always wonder why, but I don’t quite understand that.

I know.

“It’s fun to imagine if we could meet someday, it’s exciting, it makes my heart beat fast.”

“Fumu……  just wait a minute.”

Kaori stopped peeking and began stretching on the spot

It’s a funny thing to see such a young-looking Kaori do that, but …… it’s Kaori anyway.

I have a passing fear of what she might start.

“Then here I go. One, two!”

Once her stretching was over, Kaori stretched for the last time, and poon! With a sound like that, she was enveloped in smoke.

The smoke cleared in a blink of an eye, and what appeared was ――

“It’s a success.”

“……have you grown up?”

“Is that all you have to say, it’s the same body as the woman in that picture, you know?”

“Eh? Ah, that’s true!”

I lift up the photo and compare it alternately with the “transformed” Kaori.

Kaori, who had a body of a young child earlier, has now a nice body exactly like the Orthia in the photo album.

“Is this even possible?”

“Can’t you do it, nephew-chan?”

“Hmm, no, well, if I wanted to?”

I’ve never done it, but in essence, it’s physical manipulation, right?

I feel like I could do it if I tried ―― which I won’t.

I like looking at girls’ bodies, but I have no interest in having one.

“But…… yeah, I knew there would be a difference between a picture and seeing it in person.”

“Is that so?”

“Ah”

To be frank, my heart is pounding.

After all, she has the best proportion of the best Orthias.

Just the fact that the real thing, a perfect reproduction, is right in front of me makes my heart pound with excitement.

My heart throbs so much that the base of my ears feels hot.

“……*gulp”

The next moment, as I gazed at Kaori, I involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Pushu…… with the sound of air escaping, Kaori returned to her original form.

“I’m back.”

“Is there a time limit?”

“There is. This kind of transformation is limited to about three minutes.”

“3 minutes ……3 minutes huh ……”

It is annoying that the time is so subtle.

No, well, I’m not going to do anything, you know.

“More importantly, what are you here for today?”

“That’s right!”

Kaori clapped her hands and took a bottle out.

It is a nondescript bottle with a metal lid and an opening the same size as the bottom.

“I can’t open this. Open it, please.”

“A bottle?”

I take the bottle from Kaori’s hand and try to turn it.

It’s a little stiff.

“It’s kind of nostalgic, I remember nee-san asking me the same favor when we were kids.”

“Is that right?”

“Ah, it was pretty stiff back then, too. …… Alright.”

I open the lid of the hard bottle and offer it to Kaori.

Kaori didn’t take it, and was admiring “Oh”.

“What’s wrong?”

“Amazing. Nephew-chan really opened it.”

“Heh? What does that mean―― wait a minute, what is this bottle?”

I missed it because I was remembering my memories with my nee-san, but it’s a strange story in the first place.

Kaori, the Demon King, couldn’t open the lid of the bottle, so she had me open it?

Why didn’t I realize that?

“This is a bottle sealed by my father and Hikari-anesama.”

“What did you say?”

“Err…… ah, there was a letter from ane-sama in here.”

As Kaori said, there was a small piece of paper inside the bottle, like a letter.

Kaori takes it out and reads it.

“In this bottle, we’ve sealed father’s surplus power. The person who opens it will have all their abilities doubled, so make use of it―― it was written so.”

“Wha,what the hell!?”

Is this a joke, there’s no way, right?

As a test, I tried to finger flick the desk.

Although I did it lightly, one corner of the desk was blown to pieces.

I understand because of how my body feels.

“My power…… has doubled.”

“Oh, congratulations”

“What the hell……”

Even though I’m already having trouble with my power, it has been doubled.

I wanted to hold my head in my hands, knowing that I was going to be involved in more and more things in the future.
