Chapter 51 The Daily Life I Tied Up
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
The next day, on Thursday morning
When Riko woke up, Maria is already up and preparing breakfast. Maria must be tired too, but as always, she is amazingly strong
And yet, her hair and skin are perfectly groomed. She looked beautiful wearing only black lingerie and an apron, and the countless lewd words written on her white skin further decorated her body
”So, you guys still went all out, huh?”
Well, Riko was the one who suggested it
It seems that the scribble play, which is mainly initiated by Chihiro and enhanced by Riko, has been carried out. If the idea of having Maria say the words herself was also carried out, it means that it was Maria herself who wanted these words
As mentioned last night, the idea of having her say these words was rather seriously surprising
Maria, who heard Riko voice, turned around and smiled, then her expression changed to one of embarrassment
”…Yes. I kinda, you know, overdid it last night. Well, it’s not something I experience often, and I’m so embarrassed that I’d rather Master forget about it”
”I bet…”
If Riko look closely, she can see the dark circles around Maria’s eyes. It’s a sign that last night’s play was too intense or lasted too long
(I mean, what could have happened to make this woman so shy?)
Riko wanted to ask, but she knew that neither Maria nor Chihiro would tell her the details
However, Maria seemed to be in a somewhat refreshed mood
”But I guess you’re satisfied, right?”
”Well, yeah”
Maria replied with a distant look in her eyes
She seemed to be ruminating on something
”I’m really glad I met Master”
Seeing this, Riko suddenly had a question in her mind
It’s something that had been vaguely on her mind for the past few days
Something decisive that she had been trying to avoid asking
”…Hey, Maria”
”What?”
”Was your attempt to betray Chihiro really all an act?”
After all, something strange happened
[What can I do for you? ‘ (*Note: Chapter 43)
If it was all an act from the beginning, why did she ask that question?
If she didn’t want Chihiro and Riko to take any unnecessary action, why didn’t she just leave them alone?
(I thought that Maria might have wanted us to stay away when I didn’t know her true intentions)
Now, on the contrary, Riko suspect that she was trying to test Chihiro with those words
(If that’s the case, at what point did Maria give Chihiro a decision?)
Well, there is a pause in her reply
Maria looks away from Riko, resumes preparing the meal, and mutters to herself
”…I don’t know. The truth is, I don’t know what I’m really thinking, even to myself”
Riko thought Maria is being deceptive
But when Riko about to talk, Maria continued
”But I was happy. That he wanted me to be there, that he said he needed me. …that he forgave me and hugged me”
”I see”
”Yeah”
Regardless of how many lies are mixed in with her words, what she just said would be the truth
”…I guess I have more rivals now, it’s a little complicated”
”What are you talking about?”
”Hmm, not really”
Riko looked up at Maria and shook her head with a smile

Oh
I’ve done it again, Chihiro regretted when he woke up
Naturally, he thought back to last night
He scribbled on Maria’s body because he wants to leave his mark on her
It was an act of punishment, but it was completely selfish, and in the process, he put a terrible burden on Maria
Of course, he was happy
He was deeply happy to see Maria’s true self, but that was not a door that could be opened so easily
The habit of overdoing things when trying to play the role of the Master is something he can’t change easily
So, he should try to refrain from doing anything that might shorten the girl’s life
In any case, it was like a Miracle. It would not be possible to recreate it
Anyway, he went to the living room, thinking about it, and found Maria in a very normal state. She didn’t mention the scribble on her body too much, which seemed to indicate a strong sense of shame, but he didn’t want to beat around the bush
What happened last night should be kept in each other’s mind
After breakfast, the three of them went to school together. It had been a long time since they had all left the apartment together
…although they still walked separately to school
No major events occurred at the school between Monday and Wednesday, when they took turns training Hana. At most, the school got into the mood of the sports festival
Other than that, the following are some of the things that happened,
”Good morning, Riko-chan”
”…Oh, yeah. Good morning”
Since then, Aika has been greeting Riko every morning
Riko told Chihiro that there have been times when she has spoken to her. However, it has never happened every day before
Probably, almost certainly, it was because of what happened on Sunday
However, Aika does not do anything. She just said hello, and didn’t seem to have any intention of revealing the relationship between Chihiro and Riko to everyone
”……”
Aika glanced at Chihiro as she went back to her seat and immediately turned her head away
(Did she hate me?)
Since then, Aika has been acting like this. She doesn’t greet Chihiro, and even if she makes eye contact with him, she immediately averts her eyes. It seems like a blink of an eye and he can’t even feel her emotions through her eyes
It’s true that he did something that she didn’t like, but it made him feel a little sad
☆ ☆ ☆
Today, Mishuku Hana seemed to be absent from school
She is probably trying to get back in shape for the sports festival tomorrow. It is not difficult to imagine that the fatigue of three days of training cannot be overcome by a night’s sleep
Her absence did not seem to be a topic of conversation
But for now, let’s see what will happen when Hana comes back. Having said that, it would not be so easy for her to betray, but still, it would be better to keep a close eye on her
…It’s like walking on a tightrope
Well, it can’t be helped that there are no convenient powers such as hypnosis, brainwashing, or curses. But the thought of being discovered is frightening
And yet, Chihiro can’t stop
Probably, he is greedy
He wanted to know people’s hearts and joined Shibahou following in the footsteps of his older sister, only to fail and seek power. He made a contract with Maria, enslaved Riko, and now he still seeks power and women
How far?
How strong does he need to be to be satisfied?
At least, not enough as it is now
