Hiyoko: Koro-chan. I got the water.
Koroko: Okay.
Hiyoko: Ah, Takenaka-san. Good morning. #Eyes visible right away?#
Koroko: Good morning!
Shino: Good morning... *yawn*...
Hiyoko: Did you sleep well?
Shino: Yes. Thank you...
Shino: At Kiyosu, I can sleep, I don't need to be afraid of blades possibly aimed at me...
Hiyoko: I see. Good then!
Koroko: Will you wash your face? There's water in that tub.
Shino: Okay... well then.
Shino: Uu...
Koroko: Here you go, Takenaka-san. A towel. #Good girls, welcoming her and generally being nice#
Shino: Nn... thank you.
Hiyoko: Takenaka-san, did you get used to Kiyosu yet? #They really like her name#
Shino: Yes...
Hiyoko: Do you know where stores are? Takenaka-san, you came here without any luggage, so don't you have things to buy?
Shino: For now... I'm okay. #Seriously, they use her name in almost every phrase#
Hiyoko: I see... but, you're going to the castle with Kensuke-sama today, right?
Shino: Yes...
Koroko: Then, you can go shopping with Kensuke-sama on the way back...
Hiyoko: And if there's something you find hard to ask Kensuke-sama, ask us.
Shino: Yes... umm...
Koroko: What's wrong?
Shino: Umm... where's Kensuke-sama?
Koroko: Ah, Kensuke-sama is probably still sleeping.
Shino: Is he still resting? Normally, he'd be already...
Hiyoko: Yeah. After we came back with Takenaka-san, there's been a lot of work to do at the castle, so he woke up early, but...
Koroko: It appears most of that work was settled. And, you're not in a hurry today, right?
Shino: Yes. That said, it's pretty late already...
Hiyoko: It's nothing new. Don't worry about it.
Koroko: Right. He naturally wakes up early when he has something urgent.
Shino: I see...
Hiyoko: But, any more and it'll count as oversleeping, right?
Koroko: Right. Takenaka-san, we have to prepare breakfast, so can you go wake Kensuke-sama up meanwhile?
Shino: Wake up...
Koroko: Can we ask you to?
Shino: Understood...
I woke up because of the sound of my house's door opening, which is pretty clanky.
Ah, it's this late already... #Just... please no morning boners#
???: ...
Huh... Hiyo or Koro would've called me out cheerfully the moment they open the door...
Shino: Here we go...
This voice is... Shino. I suppose Hiyo and Koro have morning preparations to do, so they sent Shino to wake me up, since she isn't busy...
That sound was probably Shino entering the room. #His brain works much better than Kazuto's at mornings too#
Shino: Kensuke-sama... he's really still sleeping. #Why is it dark? Oh, right, my eyes are closed#
Come to think of it, it's Shino's first time waking me up, as I've been busy at the castle all the time since she got here.
How is Shino going to wake me up? I'm curious, so I'll pretend to sleep a bit longer.
Shino: ...
Huh. Shino sat down next to my futon, taking no actions.
...Isn't she here to wake me up?
Shino: Kensuke... sama...
Shino: ...
Shino: No... this won't do.
And now she's telling herself it won't do. I don't know what she means... but yeah, I won't wake up from something that quiet.
Shino: Right. After all...
Now I can hear a rustling sound. With that, my blanket got raised a bit, letting in the fresh air of the morning...
...Eh, Shino?!
Shino: Here we go...
As she tried to get under my blanket... #I'm not sure, she might be just trying to remove the blanket#
Shino: Ah...
Shino: Wound...
As she tried to get under my blanket, she ended up gently touching the wound I recieved from that spear back then.
As she touched bandages around it, Shino's hand felt soft and warm...
Shino: No... this is not a good method either. #No kidding#
As she muttered that, she put the blanket back, bringing back the warm air under it.
I'm not sure what she means again... she probably got reminded of what happened from seeing that wound.
It's not Shino's fault that I got this wound, so she shouldn't worry about it...
Shino: ...
To be fair, I wouldn't have minded this method... no, wait, it wouldn't be right for a girl to crawl under a man's blanket.
It wouldn't be!
But don't stop midway!
Shino: Other methods... a pleasant awakening... #Just don't get any SKM-like ideas#
Shino is muttering something next to my pillow while thinking.
She's probably not used to this. #Well, she was never around people that don't hate her#
Shino: Right... this is the only way.
I heard her standing up and Shino moved away.
As I opened my eyes lightly, I saw Shino's small back.
She seems to be looking for something at the kitchen... #Oh yeah, this is not just a room, he has a whole house...#
Shino: This is...
Eh, wait, that glittering blade you're holding... #Of course not#
Just what are you planning, Shino-san?! #I guess that's one way to wake a warrior up#
Shino: Ah, no, not this.
After muttering that, she put the blade away.
I'm glad... I was worried about her waking me up with a knife. #In Vanadis, someone woke up protag by putting a sword in his mouth#
Shino: Here it is...
Next, she took out something small. She opened the lid, checked its contents, nodded lightly and carried it all the way here.
Right before I closed my eyes completely, I could barely see the jar of miso that I left at the kitchen.
She's not going to use it as a blunt weapon... right?! #I don't think Shino is ever going to hurt him, no matter what#
Shino: Here we go...
Good, it seems that's not the case. Shino sat down next to my pillow once again, putting jar of miso next to it...
As she opened the jar lid, I can feel the pleasant scent of miso. #I'm really glad she's not a horny idiot#
Shino: ...
Shino sat down silently nearby, without doing anything.
Shino: ...
Shino only opened the miso jar and sat down next to it...
Kensuke: ...What are you doing? #It'd work if he wasn't awake already#
Shino: Ah, you woke up.
Kensuke: Yeah. Well, I woke up, but... what's this?
Shino: Yes. I thought I'd give Kensuke-sama a pleasant awakening...
With a jar of miso?
Shino: It's quite unpleasant to be forcefully woken up by others... so, if possible, I wanted you to wake up on your own, Kensuke-sama.
Kensuke: I see.
Shino: If you compare sound and scent, scent has a gentler effect.
Shino: And, from what I've seen of Kensuke-sama lately, it appears you like miso soup...
Kensuke: So, that's why the miso scent. #She thought things through#
Shino: Yes. Hiyo-san and Koro-san are making the real miso soup right now, so I decided there's no reason to actually make one here.
Miso soup and simply miso have different scents... but whatever. #I'm just glad it's not "Let's stroke his dick to see if he wakes up"#
Kensuke: Shino.
Shino: Yes?
Kensuke: Shino, about cooking...
Shino: ...?
Ah, I see. It's probably a question I shouldn't ask.
Kensuke: Yeah... well, I'm grateful for your thought.
Shino: As long as you're happy with it.
Kensuke: But, Shino's voice is not unpleasant, so just waking me up normally would've been enough.
Shino: Is that so? #She does have a gentle voice#
Kensuke: Hiyo and Koro loudly say "Wake up!" the moment they come in. #Imagine hearing Mitsuki be like "Wake up, brat!". That'd be scary#
Shino: Loudly... #Or Norio/Chousen...#
Kensuke: It doesn't have to be loud. Just talking normally next to my bed would've been enough, so just stick to the way it's easy for you...
Shino: So you were awake... #Smart girl#
Kensuke: Ah... yeah. Well... I was curious to see how you'll wake me up... sorry if that bothers you.
Shino: I don't mind. Learning enemy's tricks is one of basics on a battlefield. #Also, it's a good thing he admitted it without making excuses#
Kensuke: Ah... yeah.
Battlefield, huh...
I have a feeling her reasoning is pretty weird, but whatever. I'll ignore it for now.
Kensuke: Then, I'll ask while I'm at it... why were you trying to get under my blanket?
Shino: That's...
Shino: I thought getting under your blanket and gently whispering you to wake up would be good...
What's with this dream-like awakening method. I would've picked that over jar of miso...
Shino: Umm... there's the matter of your wound too...
Kensuke: This wound has nothing to do with you, Shino, so don't worry about it.
Shino: Also...
Kensuke: Also?
Shino: My body is pretty weak...
Kensuke: Eh?
Shino: It's a secret of utmost secrecy...
Kensuke: Utmost secrecy, huh...
...She had the idea, but got to embarrassed to do it as she tried to, is that the case? It's a pity, but well, it's only natural.
Koroko: Kensuke-sama! Breakfast is ready, so hurry up and wake up! #So, what was the point of Shino even doing anything?#
Kensuke: Yeah! I'll be right there!
For now, the fact that Shino came to wake me up...
I'm glad she's at least trying to get used to how things are done here.
Okay, let's go eat.
After breakfast with Koro and the rest, I took Shino and left the residence. #I just realized that Shino is a samurai, while Koro and Hiyo are commoners#
Ahead of us is the castle of Kiyosu. #So... they must feel reserved around her#
Kensuke: Did you get used to Kiyosu?
Shino: A bit...
Kensuke: Well, you just got here. You should take your time and get used to it.
Shino: ...
Shino is probably nervous, as she's more silent than usual. So, it's naturally my role to keep this conversation going.
Kensuke: What about Hiyo and Koro? Are you getting along? #You know, sometimes, you don't have to talk, silence works too#
Shino: ...
No answer, huh.
From what I've seen during the breakfasts lately, Shino is still not used to their pace.
They're being considerate, so well, time will solve this problem.
Shino: About Kuon-sama...
Kensuke: Hmm?
Suddenly, unusually, Shino was the one to start a conversation.
Shino: Was Kuon-sama... away until now?
Kensuke: Kuon? Kuon was in the castle all this time. She had no reason to go anywhere lately.
I see her walking near the castle from time to time, but that's about it.
I don't think she had any schedule open since Shino came to Kiyosu.
Shino: ...Then, why am I this late meeting Kuon-sama?
Kensuke: You had stuff to do around here too, Shino. We thought we should delay it to let you settle... should we've done this sooner?
...Now that I think about it, did Shino even get any rest, since she had to deal with all the petty stuff right away?
Well, there's still time before we attack Mino, so she will still have time to rest.
Shino: No... I see.
I wonder why she doesn't sound too pleased with it... is something bothering her?
As I entered the castle with Shino, I met the usual trio right away. #Oh yeah, I remember why Shino is not too hyped about this#
Wakana: Oh, Kensuke. I see you around a lot lately.
Kensuke: I had a lot of work to do, after all...
Wanko: Kensuke-sama. Who is this girl? #Shino is afraid of them all for a valid reason#
Shino: ...!
As Wanko peeked at her cheerfully, Shino trembled and hid behind me. #Hinari mode activated#
Hina: Ah, she hid herself.
Kensuke: Wanko. Don't scare her.
Wanko: I, I haven't scared her!
Wakan: How cruel, Wanko.
Hina: You bully.
Wanko: I'm not cruel! I'm not a bully either! #If anything, Wakana is the most intimidating here#
Shino: ...
Kensuke: Shino...
I doubt she can introduce herself with how scared she is...
Kensuke: Umm, she's Takenaka Hanbee Shigeharu. Also known as Shino...
Wakana: Ooh! Takenaka Hanbee, do you mean that Takenaka Hanbee?! #Yup, she's famous around here... as a major enemy, in a way#
Shino: ...!
She got scared by Wakana's voice, as I could feel Shino's hands trembling, as she is clinging to my back.
Kensuke: Wakana. Don't scare her.
Hina: Yay. Wakana-chin, you're also a bully! #And this chill attitude has zero intimidation#
Wakana: I, I'm not bullying her!
Wanko: How cruel.
Wakana: I'm not cruel! Right, Kensuke?!
Kensuke: Ahaha... Come on, Shino. Don't get scared so much.
Shino: ...
Well, she's not even used to Hiyo and Koro's pace yet. Those three have way more power than them, so of course she's surprised...
Hina: Takenaka Hanbee, it's that one, right? From Shinkano...
Shino: ...!
Ah, she trembled again.
Hina: Fueh?! DId I say something that would scare her?!
Wakana: Yay. You bully! #She likely is#
Wanko: You're a bully!
Hina: I, I'm not bullying her... right, Kensuke-kun?
Kensuke: Shino. They won't bite.
Hina: Wanko might.
Shino: ...!
Wanko: I, I won't!
Wakana: We've heard from Mitsuki-sama. But just how did you capture Takenaka Hanbee of Shinkano, Kensuke?
Kensuke: I didn't capture her. I asked her to join us.
Wanko: Fueh? Do people join if you just ask them to? #Add charisma, gratitude and common goal there#
Wakana: Of course not. If people became allies that easily, we wouldn't have conquests.
Hina: Then, after all...
Kensuke: After all, what?
Hina: Eh? Well, that's embarrassing to say. I can't say anything else. Kensuke-kun, you pervert.
Kensuke: ...Wha! I won't do anything like that!
Shino: ...
Kensuke: Oh, come on, now Shino is getting some distance even from me...
Wakana: You bully! #I bet Hina said it just for this#
Wanko: Kensuke-sama, you're also a bully!
Hina: Yay, a bully! And a pervert too! #At least noone takes her jokes seriously#
Kensuke: I'm not a bully! And I'm not a pervert either!
Even Shino is afraid of me now, since they called me a bully!
Kensuke: Jeez... anyway, she'll be joining us from now on... is that okay? Shino, you too.
Shino: ...(nod)
Wakana: But, to let go of Takenaka Hanbee, are Mino people that dumb? #Yes#
Hina: For sure. But it's okay, makes things easier for us.
Shino: ...
Kensuke: Well then, we'll go greet Kuon. See ya, you three.
Wanko: Yeah. See ya, you two.
After parting with the trio, we walked around the castle, looking for Kuon.
Which is fine, but you can never find Kuon when you're looking for her...
I told her I'll bring Shino today, so I don't think she left to the town.
Mitsuki: Oh, brat. What are you doing here? #Okay, THIS person you can be scared of#
Kensuke: Shino... I came to introduce Takenaka Hanbee. Do you know where Kuon is?
Mugiho: Kuon-sama... is probably at the garden... is this girl Takenaka Hanbee-san?
Shino: ...
Kensuke: Shino, you know Mitsuki-san, right? And this is... #Another soothing member that shouldn't be intimidating#
Mugiho: I'm Niwa Gorouzemonjou Nagahide. Also known as Mugiho.
Shino: Niwa... so you're Rice Gorouza-dono.
Mugiho: Yeah. I'm honored that you know me. Pleased to meet you, Hanbee-san.
Shino: ...(nod)
Shino nodded to Mugiho, but is still hiding behind me.
Mugiho: ...Umm, do you hate me by any chance? #She looks way older with this look on her face#
Kensuke: She's just a bit shy. I think she'll be fine when she gets used to it... #She is, but that's not the reason here#
Mitsuki: You've heard him... it's probably for that reason, she doesn't even approach me.
Mugiho: Well, you're Demon Shibata, after all, Mitsuki-sama. #Yup. She's awesome, but scary#
Mitsuki: I don't want to hear it from Demon Gorouza of all people.
Shino: ...!
Kensuke: Come on, Mitsuki-san. Don't intimidate her so much...
Mitsuki: Hmm...
Mugiho: But, it's reassuring to have Takenaka-dono of Shinkano joining us.
Mitsuki: Right.
Mugiho: Come to think of it, you participated at the battle of Shinkano, right, Mitsuki-sama?
I see... well, that battle happened before I arrived, and since Kuon didn't participate, it was under command of Mitsuki-san and Mugiho-san.
Mitsuki: She got us that time. But, I didn't expect the general back then to be such a lass...
Shino: ...!
Ah, she hid behind me again.
Mitsuki: ...Am I that scary? #Of course she's afraid of people she defeated before#
Mugiho: This was completely your own fault, Mitsuki-sama. #She's afraid they're holding grudges#
Kensuke: Yeah...
You don't have to be Shino to freak out here. To be fair, I got scared myself.
Mitsuki: Hmm... I didn't mean to. #Yeah, she is a nice person#
Mugiho: Anyway, Shino, pleased to meet you, okay?
Shino: ...(nod)
Shino only lightly nodded at Mugiho-san's gentle words.
Kensuke: I think Kuon should be around here...
From what I've heard from Mitsuki-san, she's been around here earlier, she went to to check the garden, so she should be here... should be.
Shino: ...
Kensuke: Shino, are you tired? Should we rest a bit?
Shino: I'm... okay.
Looking at how she acts around Hiyo and Koro, she's a bit shy... but I should just wait for now, until she gets used to everyone.
I should bring her with me to the castle, when I have any work here...
Kensuke: Ah, there she is. Hey, Kuon.
Kuon: What's up, Kensuke?
Kensuke: I've been looking for you.
Kuon: I see. Come to think of it, you mentioned bringing Takenaka Hanbee today.
Shino: And you're... Oda Saburou-dono?
Kuon: Right.
Kensuke: Kuon... as I mentioned, this is Takenaka Hanbee Shigeharu.
Shino: Also known as Shino... best regards.
Kuon: I'm Oda Saburou Nobunaga. Feel free to call me Kuon.
What's with all this tension in the air...
Kuon: I've heard about it from Mitsuki. So you're planning to only devote a part of your skills to me?
Wha, Kuon... don't ask that right away!
Shino: Yes...
...And, Shino nodded!
Kuon: ...
Shino: ...
Kensuke: ...
I kinda wanted to say something to change the mood, but Shino seems to be enduring something, while Kuon is not changing her facial expression.
Kensuke: ...
This is not a situation where I should say something. #Good call#
Shino: ...
Kuon: Yeah... it's probably hard having to deal with Kensuke, but good luck.
Shino: I'll devote all of my skills to him...
Kuon: Hahaha. How honest of you.
It seems they came to an agreement...
What? This conversation. No, it wasn't exactly a conversation.
Kuon: But, that finally settled the battle of Shinkano.
Shino: ...
Kensuke: What do you mean?
Kuon: Sure, we lost that battle. Against Shino's strategy.
Shino: ...
She didn't back away at all when she was intimidated by Kuon earlier, but now I can feel her grasping the hem of my clothes.
Kuon: Don't be afraid. Some you win, some you lose, I don't plan to make a fuss over that.
Shino: ...
Kuon: But, the modern Koumei of Mino from back then is now by my side. Isn't that a victory?
She said she's not bothered by it, but she really is... #I wonder if Kensuke realizes he knows the original Koumei, Shuri#
Kensuke: That's so like you, Kuon... #She's a really good ruler#
Kuon: That's how it is. Use all of your skills to help my husband.
Shino: ...(nod, nod, nod)
As Kuon finally smiled and said that, Shino nodded three times.
After surviving meeting with Kuon, Shino and I are heading back to the residence.
Shino: Was that okay, Kensuke-sama?
Kensuke: Yeah. I finished my work at the castle anyway.
And it seems Shino got quite tired by meeting with Kuon.
Kensuke: ...Are you okay, Shino?
Shino: I'm a bit exhausted...
Well, no wonder. Before even meeting Kuon, we ran into quite a lot of powerful members. We should take it easy for the rest of this day.
Shino: Still... thank you.
Kensuke: Hmm?
Shino: About Shinkano... You helped me out with it, right, Kensuke-sama?
Kensuke: What?
Shino: Well... noone at the castle held any grudges over Shinkano... even that Demon Shibata...
Kensuke: Eh? Noone held any to begin with, you know?
Shino: ...Eh?
Kensuke: Hiyo and Koro didn't seem bothered about it either.
Shino: ...Was that not because of your orders, Kensuke-sama?
Kensuke: I never said anything.
I might've said something like "get along with Shino", but that's so natural that I don't even remember.
Shino: Then... why did it take so long for me to meet with Kuon-sama?
Shino: Kensuke-sama, you went to the castle every single day, so I thought you were getting rid of the grudges over Shinkano...
Shino: Or, taking time to see if I'm a spy of Mino or not...
Kensuke: No, I really just had work to do... I see, you were worried about it.
Shino: ...
Kensuke: I said it already. I thought you have your own worries to deal with, so we should give you a time to rest.
Since the moment she captured Inabayama castle and up until she arrived to Owari, she barely had any time to rest...
Shino: Was that... not a phrase to reassure me?
Kensuke: Ahaha, no, no.
Kensuke: I've heard from Koro. That you can sleep sound without worrying about assassins now.
Shino: Yes... I can sleep sound at Kiyosu.
Shino: It's a life you saved, Kensuke-sama. If it gets taken on your orders, I wouldn't mind.
Kensuke: No, no, no. Wait a bit, okay?!
Shino: ...Yes?
Kensuke: Why are you going to sleep expecting to be killed?!
She sounds like she really accepted death.
Shino: I see...
Kensuke: Not in that way, be at ease normally. Noone is going to try and kill you here, Shino.
Kensuke: Same goes for everyone at the castle. Was there anyone that would try and kill you?
Shino: Then... really?
Kensuke: That's right. I asked Kuon to let you rest a bit, and she agreed.
At most, she said "You're really kind to women". Even though I don't think I'm only kind to women...
Kensuke: But, I see... I didn't consider possibility of you being a spy. #He's kind to women, because ALMOST EVERYONE is women here#
Shino: ...You haven't realized it before?
Kensuke: Only after you just told me.
Even everyone at the castle, a lot of them praised Takenaka Hanbee's defense, but not a single one complained about Shinkano...
Shino: ...
Kensuke: Kuon said it herself just now, some you win, some you lose... were you scared, because you thought she would hold a grudge?
Shino: ...(nod)
Shino: At Mino... they acted as if it's only normal for them to win. Not to mention, taking an officer that defeated them as an ally is unheard of.
Kensuke: ...After you gave Inabayama back to Tatsuoki, were you treated badly by the people of Western Mino?
Shino: If that wasn't the case, I wouldn't be here.
I see...
Since she was always treated that way, it's only natural for her to think Kuon would not easily forgive Shinkano.
Kensuke: At any rate, Owari is different from Mino. I'm sure a lot of things will confuse you... but it's not a place where people would think badly of you or try to harm you.
Shino: Yes.
Shino: In that case... can I ask something else? #He forgot he got attacked in his sleep, then by oni and then forced to duel#
Kensuke: Ask anything. #But other than oni, he was just too shady#
I see. As I'm walking and talking with Shino, I need to slowly fill the gap between here and Mino in her.
The next step is probably bringing her to the castle a lot, so she could get used to it...
Shino: Why are those two of Kensuke squad are being kind to me? #Because they're awesome? Especially Koro#
Shino: Even if it was on your order, I still feel their kindness go beyond that.
Kensuke: ...You don't get it?
Shino: If I did, I wouldn't ask.
Fair point...
Shino: There's no merit in being on good terms with a weirdo like me... I'm not exactly friendly like Hiyo-san.
Kensuke: Was that the case at Mino? #She's just ahead of her times though#
Shino nodded at my question.
Shino: I believe I was fairly loyal to Tatsuoki. And in terms of commanding, I had minor achievements, like Shinkano...
Kensuke: I see...
Still, calling achievements at Shinkano "minor", huh. #Raze and pillage Mino. They deserve it#
Shino... actually, they ask for too much at Mino. #And they can't even do half of that#
Kensuke: Shino, you need to learn more.
Shino: I keep my lack of education in mind, but it's displeasing to be straight out told about it...
Kensuke: Ah, that's not what I mean.
How should I say it the best in Shino's terms...
Kensuke: Kensuke squad is a small force.
Shino: Yes.
Kensuke: So, unlike the major forces that you commanded before, small forces require their own structure and skills.
Shino: I understand that... grasp of human nature.
Kensuke: Well, that's to put it in your terms.
Shino: ...Then, is it different?
Kensuke: Don't you think they just want to get along with you? You're not that different in age too.
Shino: Even though I'm this... unfriendly? #Wait, actually, how old are they? They might be older than Kensuke#
Kensuke: Shino, you're just shy. You're talking normally with me, and starting to be able to talk with Hiyo and Koro, right?
Shino: ... #Oh, this is part I haven't played yet...#
Kensuke: I think they just want to get along without things like structure of Kensuke squad in mind. I'm sure of it.
Shino: That's... to use me? #She REALLY doesn't trust people. Can't blame her though#
Kensuke: No. They're not trying to use you.
Kensuke: Anyway, Shino, you understand the importance of human relationships, right? Then, you could always try our method.
Shino: Right... I don't know what it is though.
Kensuke: Then, I'll teach you an ultimate skill.
Shino: You're starting right from the ultimate skill?
Kensuke: It's not a secret techinique, after all.
Shino: I see...
Kensuke: When we come back, make sure to greet Hiyo and Koro.
Shino: Okay.
Kensuke: That's it.
Shino: ...What?
Shino: Is that... all?
Kensuke: Yup. That's all... simple, right?
Shino: It's so simple that I doubt its effectiveness.
Kensuke: It works well. Isn't it the same for strategems? Most basic ones are surprisingly the closest to ultimate skills.
Shino: Well, I can't really deny that...
Kensuke: It's the same here. If you keep that in mind... you'll be an even greater strategist. To the point that Sleeping Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix won't compare to you.
Shino: Sleeping Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix... #That's Shuri and Hinari's nicknames, right?#
Kensuke: You don't know it? #With pathetic level of SKM strategies, she long surpassed them#
Shino: No. It's about Shokatsu Koumei and Hou Shigen. #Comment box seems oddly happy#
As expected... she knows some unusual things. #Also, wasn't Hinari's nickname Fledgling Phoenix?#
Kensuke: Anyway, it's not hard, so just trust me on this one. #The ONLY good strategist in SKM was Fuu#
Shino: I see...
Kensuke: Then, one more thing, while we're at it. #Also, even Kensuke long surpassed SKM level of strategy#
I smiled at puzzled Shino and took her hand. #Though Farnese and Dantalian would devastate them#
Shino: ...!
Shino: Is this... an ultimate skill too? #No, that's just swag#
Kensuke: Right. A practice to learn ultimate skill of getting along with me.
Shino: If it's a practice... it can't be helped... #This point of Shino's hidden eyes is really effective#
Her soft and small hand didn't try to escape my grasp. Instead, she grasped me back tightly.
Hiyoko: Ah, welcome back! Kensuke-sama, Takenaka-san.
Koroko: Lunch is prepared already. Let's eat together.
I see. It's this late already...
Hiyoko: Ah! Takenaka-san is holding hands with Kensuke-sama. How nice.
Kensuke: Yes, yes. My other hand is free. #I always said humans need a third hand#
Hiyoko: Is that okay, Kensuke-sama?
As I offered her my left hand, which is not holding Shino's, Hiyo happily grasped it.
Koroko: Ah, good for you, Hiyo. Kensuke-sama... #See? Stupid human bodies only having two hands...#
Hmm, crap. I gave Hiyo an okay without thinking, but I only have two hands. #Just agree to give Koro a tight hug later#
Hiyoko: Then, Koro-chan. Join me! #...I didn't think of that option#
Koroko: Well, that'll do... is that okay, Kensuke-sama?
Kensuke: Do you think I would refuse?
Koroko: Fufu. I don't. #It'll be really hard to walk though#
Saying that and being a bit embarrassed, Koro grasped my left hand's fingers. #Also, holding the hem of his clothes from behind works too, I guess#
Shino: An ultimate skill to get along with Kensuke-sama... #THIS is the kind of skills protags need. Not "Endless Sexual Stamina"#
Shino: If I learn it... I'll surpass Sleeping Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix... #Yeah, those two never learned how to get along with Kazuto...#
Kensuke: Shino?
Hiyoko: What's wrong, Takenaka-san?
Shino: Umm...
Koroko: Hmm?
Shino: ...It's Shino.
I could feel her grasping my right hand tightly, but it's not to surprise me. She clenched it to resolve herself.
Yeah. I'm cheering for you, Shino.
Shino: I don't mind you two calling me Shino too...
Koroko: Got it... And you can call me Koro.
Hiyoko: And call me Hiyo.
Koroko: Well then, once again... welcome back, Shino-chan. #She instantly went from -san to -chan#
Hiyoko: Welcome back. Shino-chan!
Shino: I, I'm back... Hiyo, Koro! #Totally worth it!#
