Chika imdiately covered her eyes with both hands, her cheeks flushed red—but her fingers were spread wide open, completely unconvincing, as she watched the scene unfold with perfect clarity.
"..."
After a brief silence, Matsumae signaled for Kanae to step away.
She knew that she and Kanae shouldn't be standing here right now.
As for Kurona and Nashiro's actions, she wasn't particularly surprised. She'd long noticed that Kurona and Nashiro had an unusual relationship with the Master. At most, she was slightly taken aback by how bold and direct they were being.
Kanae clearly wasn't as composed as Matsumae. Seeing this scene made her cheeks flush, and she quickly followed the Head Maid out of the room.
anwhile, Byakuya opened his eyes in surprise, finding Kurona and Nashiro's adorable faces inches away from his own. What had just happened was obvious.
Both Kurona and Nashiro had faint blushes on their cheeks.
Only now did they straighten up properly. They had launched their "attack" on Byakuya from either side while he sat between them—and they'd done it in front of everyone.
Rize's expression darkened. She hadn't expected Kurona and Nashiro to be this bold. Even if she'd wanted to stop them, it was too late now.
Her tone was cool as she spoke: "Don't think a sudden bold move will give you an advantage."
Though she was displeased, she knew this mont had been inevitable. Byakuya had once told her "I like them all, so I want to protect them all"...
Kurona and Nashiro were both among those Byakuya protected, so she wouldn't actually do anything to them.
She simply wanted to give them a piece of her mind because she was annoyed.
"What does Rize-san an by that?"
Kurona asked, her expression neutral and voice flat.
"I'm not sure where Rize-san got the idea of 'gaining an advantage.' Nashiro and I simply wanted to repay Byakuya-oniichan's kindness."
Nashiro added.
Their actions hadn't been spontaneous—the two sisters had discussed this privately beforehand.
Though the "gaining an advantage" part was accurate, since their private agreent had been to claim Byakuya's first kiss together.
Little did they know...
"Repaying kindness? Just a boring excuse. If you like him, you like him. What's there to hide?"
Rize mocked them directly.
"..."
Both Kurona and Nashiro were montarily stunned by her words.
Rize continued, "Also, regardless of whether you two have any 'little sches,' it's already too late. Byakuya's first kiss was taken by long ago."
As she spoke, Rize's expression was haughty and her tone casual, exuding the presence of a proper "first wife."
"What?..."
Kurona snapped back to reality.
"...As expected, we shouldn't underestimate Rize-san."
Nashiro's voice dropped slightly.
Chika felt like a complete outsider, unable to join their conversation at all.
But she had noticed... Rize-san, Kurona-san, and Nashiro-san all seed to have clear feelings for Amaha-sama...
Matsumae and Kanae, standing outside the living room, could still hear Rize's exchange with the Yasuhisa sisters.
Matsumae thought to herself that stepping away had definitely been the right choice.
"The Head Maid's judgnt was wise. Otherwise, we might have been dragged into unnecessary complications."
Kanae couldn't help but remark.
Mayu was upstairs in her room, having planned to go to sleep early. But when she heard the commotion downstairs, curiosity got the better of her and she ca down to look.
The atmosphere in the living room felt strange, but Mayu only vaguely sensed sothing was off without understanding what had happened.
"What's going on? Sothing feels weird..."
Mayu asked.
The tension between Rize and the Yasuhisa sisters dissipated at that mont.
"Nothing. Children should go to bed early."
Rize said dismissively.
Kurona and Nashiro's expressions had returned to calm, as if nothing had happened at all.
"I was actually about to sleep earlier, but I heard noises downstairs and got curious... Also, I don't think I've seen this older sister before?"
Mayu's attention was drawn to Chika.
"Her? Just call her Chika-oneechan. She's a new mber of Anteiku."
Byakuya introduced her.
"Oh! Chika-oneechan, I'm Mayu. Nice to et you."
Mayu said politely.
"Nice to et you too."
Chika nodded.
Having now t everyone in Byakuya's household, Chika's anxiety about this unfamiliar environnt continued to diminish.
...
The next day.
Kurona and Nashiro accompanied Byakuya to the Aura residence.
Since Special Class Aura had already given them the address, they didn't need to ask for directions.
Arriving at the front door, they saw "Aura" displayed beside the entrance. Byakuya rang the doorbell.
Kiyoko Aura soon ca to open the door.
"Kurona, Nashiro, and First Class Amaha. You arrived earlier than I expected. I haven't even finished getting ready yet."
Kiyoko's tone carried an intriguing quality.
When the door swung open, Byakuya imdiately understood what she ant.
The Kiyoko Aura before him wore only a thin nightgown, with the outline of her undergarnts visible beneath the fabric.
"Perhaps... I should wait outside for a mont? I'll co in once you're ready, Special Class Aura."
Byakuya suggested.
"..."
Kurona and Nashiro nearly moved to shield Special Class Aura from view.
"It's fine. Co in."
Kiyoko didn't seem to mind.
Since she wasn't bothered, Byakuya stepped inside.
The three of them removed their outdoor shoes and changed into disposable indoor slippers.
"I apologize. I've always lived alone, so I've been lax about cleaning. It's a bit cluttered—please don't judge."
Kiyoko said.
Just as she described, the place wasn't particularly clean, though it wasn't terribly ssy either.
There were simply a lot of miscellaneous items around, but nothing that could be called dirty.
Seeing this, Byakuya didn't comnt. He rely thought to himself that even the CCG's only female Special Class, Kiyoko Aura, had this hidden side to her...
As this thought crossed his mind, Byakuya was about to sit down on the sofa when he suddenly spotted sothing he shouldn't have seen.
"?!"
It was a bright, sexy pair of red lace panties... lying in plain sight on the sofa.
