Chapter 28 : These Are The Happy Days Chisome Protects

Summer vacation is over, and the second semester has arrived respectively, for both Taiga and Chisome.

Among them, the one that has changed the most is Chisome, and after her feelings were conveyed, there was no restraint between Taiga and her....... well, she has never held back until now, but by striking each other's affection straight, Chisome's heart becomes even richer, or rather, perhaps because she is overflowing with happiness, it is strongly reflected in her appearance as well.

"FunFunFu~n♪"

Many eyes gather on Chisome as she walks through the town humming.

She will be a high school student next year, and although she is still in middle school, her appearance is no longer in that realm.

Not only is she beautiful, but she also puts adults to shame when it comes to style.

"Let's hurry home~... flirts with Nii-san~... Ehehe. Lewd haven't done yet, but that's the countdown too? Kyaa♪"

The inside of her brain is wrapped in flowers, but it was a figure that would have never been thought possible for Chisome a little while ago.

Normally, depending on her way of thinking, she also should have been able to make love, but because Taiga's way of being was too affirmative for Chisome and brought her too much happiness, Chisome ended up loving Taiga like this much.

"You too want to flirt with Nii-san as quickly as possible, right?"

"Of.....course. I wa....nt....to..be...by....Onii....sama's.....side."

If Chisome is there, it means that Kuro Chisome lurking in her shadow is also by her side as well.

She who has recently become able to utter words, and has made Taiga being deeply moved was Kuro Chisome, but she wants to speak with Taiga more in her own voice, and wants to make him even more happy; and that being the case, she is also often seen in a cute way practicing diligently.

"Aaah~, but he said he was going to play with those two today, huh…… even when we get home now, won't we be able to see each other for some time I wonder."

*zuun* and the air around Chisome and Kuro Chisome sinks.

However, that is, after all, only a matter of the time he comes home will be late, and they are without fail, will become together at night anyway and sleep in the same bed too, so it's nothing to get lonely at.

"......Fufuu♪"

For this reason, Chisome's every day were colored with happiness.

In a happy world without impurities or anything, the past where she ends up once eating her stepfather is that; but, Chisome no longer cares about that.

However――the hum of a winged insect approached such Chisome.

"Ou Chisome! What a coincidence in a place like this――"

"?"

Although she was aware that an irritating presence was approaching, Chisome looked back.

The one there who once said various things to Taiga, that man was Isumi Souma, and Chisome's gaze became sharp at once.

"What a coincidence. No~ you look really beautiful and――"

"Annoying, why are you calling people's names without permission?"

Souma approached her as if to persistently act invigorating, but Chisome fired strong words at him as if to ruthlessly cut him off.

As expected, Souma wasn't so stupid that he couldn't understand the words, so at the atmosphere and words that Chisome was giving off, he stopped moving.

"Can you please stop calling me by my name so arbitrarily? It raised goosebumps anyway, and above all, it feels disgusting."

"......Bastard, just because someone's gettin' untactful get you 'tis carried away and all"

Has he been caught off guard, or was it because he's self-aware of it, Souma glares at Chisome.

Having had a childhood that could be said to be the worst for Chisome, in addition to possessing a unique power, and then even so, now that she's met an existence who gives her love and loves her from the bottom of its heart, it's almost as if the things she fears no longer exist for her.

"I don't have any intention to get carried away I think. If anything, isn't that a boomerang facing you? You're the protagonist, and yet you're acting like you're on a roll, far from spinning your wheels, but like you're missing a few screws flying, you know?"

Chisome said so in an insulting, inciting way.

To tell the truth, Chisome had also heard in detail about him from Taiga's mouth, but also about this world that Taiga knew.

If this were to be put honestly, even if one were told this world was originally a game, it should be unbelievable, and yet Chisome believed Taiga's words――because there was no room for doubt whatsoever.

"This world might be the game world you think of. But you know? This world is undoubtedly real, okay? Your pick-ups didn't go well altogether too, and also all the things I've suffered, are all real and are not convenient is only natural...... If you don't comprehend that, you're going to have a hard time from now on, you know?"

"Bastard......-!?"

To Souma, who makes a clenched fist and comes toward her like he won't forgive it, Chisome lets out bloodlust.

Souma stopped moving in a cold sweat, but as if only he was visible; Kuro Chisome also, as she put her hand on his neck, showed her figure――Of course, the only one visible was Souma.

"You know about me too, right? And yet you're coming at me means that were you either have courage or just an idiot......well, it's fine either which though."

"Tch......As I thought you have the power of that monster huh"

"I do have it see? For me, it's a precious power, the power to protect the present after all."

It's not the power to hurt, but the power to protect the present, to also recognize that for Chisome is a big thing.

Chisome recognizes the idea that Kuro Chisome, who was born within her, is not a cursed existence but the same existence as her, and that together they will spend their time as Taiga's little sister from now on and, in the future, an important family member.

For this reason, Chisome already accepts her own power as something precious.

"You, you're not cool at all, are you"

"......Haa?"

“Appearances or something, I’m not talking about that, okay? Including also the inside, anyway from the atmosphere to everything is painful to look at. As though, I can only see you as a pretentious small child who thinks he can do anything now."

"What did you say!?"

Well, I'm also a child myself, but Chisome muttered that in her heart and continued her words.

"You are the protagonist who is liked by the heroines in this world, you said; are you still saying that?"

"Obviously! I'm the protagonist, Isumi Souma――"

"Even though if I put a little force into it, you'd die right here? But still, you have special powers or something like the main character; were you thinking of such?"

"............"

This world might be a game world, as Taiga and Souma say.

But even so, because Souma doesn't have anything like hero modifiers, there's the possibility that he'll exit now at this instant due to Chisome's whim.......nothing will protect him. [Tl note no 1: exit.]

"I don't know what motives you have for talking to me, but you better be self-aware that you are just a human being. Even so, just because you're the main character, it's a great mentality to be able to move according to your desires, but to be clear, there's nothing attractive about the you now anyway, and I also can't sense the elements that girls like........No matter what you do, frankly, it's useless isn't it."

"......What are you......Rather, if that's the case, then that's the same with Taiga ain't it. Even that guy, just like me, knows about this world, so he can do whatever he likes and move――"

"Yeah, that's right. Nii-san also said so himself. He was thinking of me, and because he just loves me, he moved for the sake of doing what he could, he said, see."

However, Taiga and Souma clearly differ in the weight of their actions.

Taiga certainly likes Chisome and wants to do something about her; it's not that he was without a desire to want to get along with her if there was a chance.

"Nii-san's actions also had strong feelings accompanying them. Same as you? That's enough joking if not I'll eat you?"

"............Ugh"

Chisome also did well to endure.

If she ate Souma here, things would be altered conveniently, so it wouldn't greatly hurt anything, the moment she was told that Taiga was the same, she tried to eat it on impulse, but the reason why she didn't is simple, because Taiga told her that eating it would break her stomach.

Souma tries to avert his gaze from Chisome's serious bloodlust, but Chisome doesn't allow that.

"Don't look away, you bug. My turn isn't over yet."

"Hyoo?" *Hiee* (fear)

After that, saying everything she had to say, Chisome released Souma.

"Did I overdo it a little I wonder," She thought anyway, and she felt like she had convinced him, albeit forced, of the reality of having no dreams or hopes, but Chisome's head was no longer filled with memories of the man who had shat himself.

"I'm home......?"

Chisome returns home, and she notices Taiga's shoes at the entrance.

"Eh? Could it be he's already home I wonder."

As if to overtake Chisome, Kuro Chisome, with a *byuun*, headed for the living room.

As Chisome smiled wryly at the display of power in even slipping through the door, she came to hear a loud voice from the living room.

"What the!!!!? Don't come out all of a sudden, I thought you were a ghost you know!?"

"......That girl is really"

It's good that she's become able to utter-like words, but since she's still mentally young in some parts, "Around that area, have to, together with Taiga and educate Kuro Chisome as well huh" so thought Chisome.

"I'm home Nii-san."

"We, welcome back Chisome"

Kuro Chisome is clinging to Taiga's head, a deft thing she did, and she can because it's her.

With a subtle jealousy at work, she tries to pull Kuro Chisome apart, but she won't leave, and in this way, they surround Taiga, which no one knows how many times has happened, and begin the battle for the older brother.

However, even amidst all the fuss like that, Chisome still seemed happy.

This is precisely the form of happiness which she continues to wish for, and Taiga has brought to her――the precious daily life she tries to protect.

[Tl note no 1: exit, as in, exit from a stage, that is, from the game world....the world itself.]

[Yesterday happened to be not a day for me to go about translating. With maintenance over electrical lines or wires near my home, a bit after noon, the electricity is back on. I tried to last all the way till midnight, but to no avail, my brain just doesn't want to work with me on it, it feels heavy and looking at texts left me sleepy drowsy, drinking two glasses of coffee just made things worse this morning, I felt like I wanted to throw up (it's a bitter black coffee just so you know). Welp, all's well that ends well. Anyway, regular schedules will resume the day after tomorrow. so there you go.]
