Chapter 176: In The Same Boat

「Al, what kind of food bring this time?」

Asmo asked while pointing at the wooden box after making fun of Torr for a while, perhaps he’s curious about it.

「Rather than calling it food, it’s more of seasonings. There are soy sauce and miso inside」

「Ooh!」

「……what, so it’s not sweets like the one before?」

Asmo shouted in joy while Torr simply look disappointed.

Since I brought Dragon Muffins the other day. He was probably expecting sweets just like that time.

「It’s a foreign countries’ seasonings, you know? It won’t be finished in one sitting unlike sweets and it’s better than sweets since it can diversify the range of dishes」

Asmo appears to know how great it is to be able to obtain a new seasoning, maybe it’s because likes food.

「Well, whatever you say, as long as I can eat something tasty! Let’s go inside for now」

Torr said as he opened the door to his house with the bokutou on his shoulder and while being hopeful.

Nevertheless, as expected this guy really has the making of being a delinquent. His figure carrying the bokutou really suits him that there are no out-of-place feelings when I see him like that. I knew it, I got dependable eyes.

Well anyway, I pass him the seasonings since it’s more convenient to explain a lot of things inside after all. So I directly enter Torr’s house since he’s inviting me.

Asmo and I follow behind Torr and enter through the front door.

「Excuse meeー!」

「Ah, don’t worry there’s no one here beside me now!」

Happily saying something like that where his family is not around, clearly showing Torr’s personality.

When I enter from the front door, I saw two dirt-covered, well-worn wooden swords in the corner.

I don’t know whether it’s Ema-oneesama or Torr, but it looks like they have been used quite a lot. Just by seeing that, you can see just how much they’ve been using it repeatedly for practice.

I’m convinced that his practice swinging has improved.

「………Torr, you’ve worked hard」

「What are you saying now, don’t look at the wooden swords, it’s embarrassing!」

When I said that and smiled while looking at the wooden swords, Torr took the two wooden swords as if he’s trying to hide them.

It seems that it’s embarrassing for him when others are seeing things like proof of his hard work. What a strange guy, to feel embarrassed for being praised in this kind of situation, even though he’s pleased being praised directly.

「Ema-san severely taught him, see」

「Really?」

Hearing Asmo’s mutter that, I send a surprised look to Torr.

And Torr says, while he still has a complicated look on his face,

「There is only my sister who can teach me swordsmanship around here」

「Huh? What about Asmo’s sister, Sheila-san?」

Sheila-san also joined the vigilante corp’s drill, so she should be also practicing swordsmanship.

And they’re also neighbors, so it’s strange that he has no other choice than to practice with Ema-oneesama.

When I’m still puzzled over it, Asmo sigh and shakes his head.

「Oneechan is an intuitive type, so she can’t teach him」

「She said, 'You swing it like *whoosh* like this, then you made a sudden move with your waist *gurun*'. ‘After that, you will only have to do a downward swing and you will be able to do it somehow’. I completely didn’t understand what she was saying」

Asmo strongly nodded to Torr’s remark.

Is she a different intuitive type from Eleonora-neesan?

「Oh well, Sheila-san is doing things at her own pace after all」

「That’s why even though I’m irritated by it, I have no choice other than to ask my neechan to teach me. Because of that, I was made to work with five times the amount of work than usual as she pushed her own chores to me」

「Wasn’t it because Torr’s manner of asking was the problem? I’m sure that Ema-san would gladly accept teaching you if you earnestly asked her, don’t you think?」

It’s Torr who is strange since he can’t be obedient to Ema-oneesama. I’m sure he asked her rudely, didn’t he?

There shouldn’t be the kind of person that would take advantage of others.

「How could it be like that! Women are such creatures! They’re the kind of creatures that will take advantage of you till the end if you let them see some weaknesses! You knew that too, right!?」

「Tha, that might be so, but Ema-oneesama should not be like that!」

Kuh, despite thinking that there’s no way Ema-oneesama would do something like that, Torr’s words are intensely resonating inside my mind, and a small part in my mind thought that, maybe she is actually not that attractive.

No, Ema-oneesama shouldn’t be like that.

「You’re just being deceived by neechan’s outward appearance! You will regret it later when you have such a delusion about neechan!」

「It’s you who is being deceived by one’s outward appearance! Eleonora-neesan is neither attractive nor gentle! She’s sloppy and did things as she pleases! Torr is being deceived by the fact that she’s the daughter of a noble!」

「Tha, that’s not true!」

Torr and I are screaming and glaring at each other.

「……you know, Al and Torr are always arguing and have such a low opinion about your own neechan. Then later get found out by your neechan and punished because of it」

As a matter of fact, he’s right.

「Let’s stop this unproductive argument」

「Yeah. We’re always in parallel with this topic」

We’re always arguing about our sisters as usual.

Torr and I go down the hallway without being particularly hostile to each other.

「By the way, my neechan is staying home next door, so she would be able to hear everything you guys yelling before 」

「「…………」」

Hearing the fact that Asmo said, Torr and I stopped.

「Is there nothing you can do about privacy here?」

「……nothing can be done about it」

「Aah, now we’ve done it. I wonder if there’s something we can do ‘bout itー」

As soon as he enter and sit on a chair in the living room, Torr hung his head as he looks troubled while sitting on a chair

「Those things are not important, can’t you even serve us a glass of water or something. I’m thirsty」

「What do you mean it’s not important Asmo. This is a huge problem for Al and me, you know! Hey, Al!」

Torr slammed his hand on the table and looked at me as if he’s looking for a response.

Usually, I will end up at my wits’ end just like Torr.

However, this time it’s different.

「……fuu, I’m fine now since I can still manage it」

「What’s that!?」

「At any rate, Eleonora-neesan is not in Koryatt village right now. I still have some time until she’s back from the royal capital. So if Ema-oneesan got angry at Torr in the meanwhile, I can just treat it as the usual daily life, and it will become something that had already passed!」

「Naa! Al that’s dirty! Don’t you think that you’re too much by making me a sacrifice!?」

Torr bend his body forward and shouted at me after realizing my masterful plan.

Fufufu, sorry Torr. Eleonora-neesan is not here right now. This fact is really pleasing to me now more than ever.

「I wonder if it’s going to be that simpleー? You know, I think women will keep that kind of thing in mind and won’t forget about them you know? The moment Eleonora-sama came back, my neechan going to tell her about it」

「Kuh, so that’s the case!」

I strangely remember the creature called women in my past life, they have the habits to keep bringing up things that had happened again and again.

「 Were there situations where they conveniently forget about it?」

「……even if they forgot about it, I think that Torr will just remind them by bringing them up」

Haa, to think that such a pitfall exists………khh!

When I nervously look at him, Torr got this dark smile on his face

「Hehehe, don’t think only you can spend your time peacefully alright, Al? I won’t let you make a sacrifice out of me and run away, okay? 」

So the biggest obstacles on this Sacrifice plan are not women’s memory nor their habits, but a friend’s unsightly jealousy and resentment, huh.

「Hahaha, of course right? Torr and I are in the same boat in this matter. There’s no way I’m going to abandon my comrade」

「Right!」

Asmo appears to be amazed as he looked at us cooperating like that.
