Chapter 32 - Invasion of Sister and Various Decisions.

I made a friend on the second day of school. It’s an incredible achievement for me, who is a former Hikikomori. But, I’m not happy because I don’t want to leave school early anymore.
“Well, see you tomorrow”
I turned on my heels but was stopped hastily.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m going back to my dormitory room. Uh… well, You see. I haven’t done my class selection, yet.”
“Let’s do it together. I was thinking about it. I think it’s more efficient to discuss with two people so that we can make an appropriate choice.”
Ah you said it, now my turn. After that I’ll give you a line that sounds a little cool.
“I don’t think that our mindset will be same on this.'”
“Of course I won’t tell you what you should do. I also entered this institute to fulfill my mission. If I have something to do, I will do it without making any compromise just to accomodate you.”
That’s admirable. Well, I guess everyone who goes to the elite school is like that. Arguing here might not break Iris. I was planning to roll my pen to decide on a class, so I’m wondering if we should decide together and get it out of the way.
“Well, do you want to come to my room?”
“Yeah.”
So–
It was rather a light feeling. However, if you think carefully, it’s a big event to invite a girl to your room. Of course, in the past life, I’ve never had a woman other than my mother enter my room. Even in this world, it’s always a maid or Charl.
I wonder if it’s okay. But, when I opened the door….
“Brother, you’re back-Huh?!”
Why are you here Charl? My sister greeted me with a big smile then froze with a ton of noise when she saw Iris coming in behind me.
“That person…are you his lover!?”
“We’re friends” 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
“As expected, older brother. You made a wonderful friend early on. Ah, I am glad.”
She looks relieved. I thought for a moment that she was worried.
“Well, I’m sure big brother will have five or ten lovers soon. It seems that the time has come for me to make up my mind.”
My younger sister opened her narrow eyes after saying a word that has various tsukkomi.
“If possible, what about me as a second wife!”
“You’re aiming for second place. Is bigamy allowed in this country?”
“It’s not legal, but it’s my older brother. You can do whatever you want.”
Yeah, I don’t know what that means anyway. But, I see now. Is the troupe where she still be the same as when she was a child who said,
“I want to marry my older brother.”
Then after a few more years,
“Is my brother something creepy?”
Then, she will click her tongue. I hope she won’t become someone like that… I also have to be strong as an older brother.
“Is this a common conversation between a brother and sister…?”
“Maybe”
For now, I’ll introduce Iris, who looks puzzled by the exchange between us siblings.
“This is Iris Philia, who I met yesterday and became friends with today. It’s long, so Iris is all right.”
“I didn’t know you could introduce someone like this to others… Well, she’s my friend’s sister, so she can omit the name.”
“This is my sister, Charlotte,’Charl’ is all right.”
“I was introduced to you, my sister-in-law, Charlotte Loren Zemphis. I look forward to working with you, Miss Iris.”
(TN: Lol she already calls her sister in law)
Charl pinched the hem of the skirt, lifted it up, and bowed her head gracefully.
“Yeah. Best Regards, Charl”
The two seemed to have been able to come to terms with each other without any conflict (obviously).
“Charl, I don’t know what you’re doing here, but wait a minute. We have something to discuss about.”
I started to choose a class. I spread the booklet distributed by school and rolled the page over the lesson list page.
“Wait, Hart. What are you doing?”
“We have to decide about the classes, right?”
“Let me explain it to you, “No matter what you choose, it will be of no problem because my brother can take it on”, is what I want to say”
“I’m sorry. I can’t understand it at all. I’m sure Hurt had his own agenda in mind when he joined the Academy. Then, he should carefully choose his classes accordingly.”
“My older brother’s purpose is not for studying. In the first place, the assumption that someone as powerful as my brother can learn anything from others is wrong in all possibilities.”
“I admit that Hart’s ability is high. However, even if he is superior in ability and talent, he still has a lot to learn.”
“My brother’s ability transcends even common sense.”
“Well, that’s it…”
I’m talking about that. This is easy.
“I’m suddenly curious as to what your non-academic purpose is. Would you mind telling me?”
“Sorry, no matter how much of a friend you are…”
Charl sways her head with a strange look. Yeah, you can’t say “early school dropout”. I understand Charl. When did you know about it anyway?
Oh well, if you’re getting my point across, we’ll talk.
“Charl, can you choose a class that suits me?”
“Hah! It’s a great honor. This Charlotte will certainly live up to my brother’s expectations.”
Charl’s reverent bowing of her head is also imposing. This little girl has a great amount of talent and is receiving training at the castle. So, she needs this kind of relaxation.
I laid down in the bed. Charl started talking enthusiastically with Iris. So, I started watching anime with the barriers attached to the eyeballs and in my ears.
Occasionally, I would make a sickening sound like “Huh?” but they didn’t seem to mind.
Then, I finished watching three episodes.
“Whew!”
Now that wasn’t because of anime that I let out that sound. It’s because she shook me by the shoulder. When I stopped watching the anime, Charl’s adorable face appeared in front of me.
“My brother, mission complete.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Thank you.”
I take the class application form from Charl, who responds with a no-nonsense smile.
“Isn’t it necessary to check the contents?” Iris said.
“It’s unnecessary.”
I don’t care what’s inside.
“I didn’t know your brother trusted me this much….I’m getting embarrassed.”
A really shy Charl. No, yeah. I trust you, of course.
“Well then, my brother, I’m about to return. I’m glad that we met, Iris.”
“Oh, I don’t know why you came here anyway, but I’ll see you again.”
“Yeah. Charl take care of yourself.”
I whispered and walked behind Iris and covered her eyes with my hand from behind.
“I’m not here… illusion!”
After Charl goes out of the “everywhere door” on the wall, I let go of my hands. (The door looks like a wall before and after use)
“I heard the sound of the door coming from the wall instead of the front door…?”
“Who cares about the details, you won’t get ahead, huh?”
“Muh, that’s a problem. I have to have power in this country.”
I wonder if there was such a big ambition. I’m not interested. However, I understand that the commoners hope so and are surprisingly ambitious.
“Yes, but it makes me wonder about many things. You all come from a remote corner of the world, far from the capital, didn’t you? So, how is it that she came in so casually and left as if she hadn’t done her main business?”
Iris did not stop at that.
“The content of the story was also incomprehensible. While admiring that it extends to your story, she sometimes says “round table” meaningfully. It may be “dark organization” or “paradise” or “back student council”. She also said that in order to know in detail, she must become a “knight.” It seems that I’m a candidate, but what kind of position does she have? And what kind of thing are you?”
“Don’t worry about the details.”
“Uh, I’m not sure and I’m not convinced…”
I made a suggestion to her which earned a more embarrassing look.
“Have you decided on a class? Well then, please go home.”
However, Iris did not move.
“You haven’t decided on your affiliation yet? Let’s think about it together. If you don’t have any particular hopes, why don’t you try to be at the same place as me? Of course, I won’t force myself.”
It’s okay everywhere, but that Little Glasses.
Although, I didn’t like aggressive recruitment, as far as I heard the story, it seems that the other teachers hated Little Glasses. There is a high possibility that the lab will be destroyed before I leave the school.
I should rather stop a friend trying to get into a pointless place…
“Hmm?”
Let’s do that? But wait?
If I go into Professor Tia’s lab, that might give a bad impression to other teachers. Perhaps they will try to get the students out of school to close the lab? See you soon?
The enlightenment flashed.
I put my hand on Iris’ shoulder.
“I’m actually interested in ancient magic myself. I’ve been in contact with the professor in charge to get into that lab.”
“Is that so? Can you also recommend me as well? To be honest, I am not a good performer, so I may be refused at some places. Research specializing in ancient magic. That’s the only reason why I definitely want to be in there.”
No, do you think there’s a need for recommendation? Before I responded that there is always a welcome condition.
Iris took my hand on her shoulder and looked at me sincerely.
“Please. Just like this.” 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
She lowered her head and pressed my hand to her forehead. My hand is warm.
“It’s okay.”
“Thank you. I’m sorry I just depended on you. I’ll swear I’ll return this loan.”
Somehow I didn’t know that I made you owe me.
Well, let’s go out tomorrow to apply for a class and see who I’m with. I’ll need my copy. We’ll have to do it in shifts. I felt that the beautiful girl figure that I placed on the desk was staring at me even though I shouldn’t be aware of it.
