95-Episode 14: Brother's fool



 Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Oh, mother, I'm sorry!
'Ummm, what should I do? Do you promise to reflect on it properly and never mess with Arel again?

 Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

'That's because I don't like it! Because from the moment he was born, Arel was destined to marry me!
'Looks like we need to make it a little stronger, don't we?

 Bam! Bam! Bam!

'Hi! I mean, everyone is watching! I'm not a kid anymore!
'Hmmm, so let's hurry up and mature mentally then, shall we?

 Bam! Bam! Bam!

 The sound of "bachin" that echoed from earlier was the sound of the 《Sword God》 Phara slapping the 《Emperor》 Astaire's buttocks.

''Your Majesty........''
'Wow....'

 She bares her ass in front of her subordinates and is punished by her mother.
 This is the ultimate in shame play.

"It's time to stop beating her!

 Bam! Bam! Bam!

What, wait, why isn't the Heavenly Decree working?
'Of course it is. A mother's love is not bound by skill.
'I don't know what that means!

 Bam! Bam! Bam!

 Incidentally, her subordinates, including the four of the eight generals, could only stand by and watch as their master was being spanked.
 This is because they had already been completely defeated and brokenhearted by the "Sword God" Farah.

 Moreover, it was his second loss today.



 On this day, that lesson was deeply engraved in their hearts.



    ◇ ◇ ◇



Hi, Dad.
Oh, Arel. Welcome back.

 When I finally returned to my parents' house, my dad greeted me.
 The Imperial Army that had surrounded the city was gone, so they had probably retreated.

'Where's Mom?'
Well, you know, your mother had to run an errand...

 Dad says, looking away for some reason.

'Well, he'll be back sooner or later, so don't worry about it.

 It's my mom.
 You don't have to worry about it.

What's going on with Laina?
Yeah, Laina's going out for a while to finish up her training or something.
Finish your training?
I think he's hiding in a dungeon.

 Oh, dungeons.
 It's a great place to learn to fight.

"He said he'd challenge you again when he gets back. You've been working hard every day with your mother, and I'm sure you're getting stronger. Your mother has given her stamp of approval.
Hmm, that sounds pretty interesting. All right, I'll take it.
....
"? What's up, Dad?
No, it's... well, it's nothing.

 What did he want to say?
 Weird dad.

 So I get to the point where I'm about to do the most disturbing thing about coming home.

"Well, Dad,
Huh...!

 It's like, "I've been waiting for you! For some reason, my dad's puckered expression brightened.

'How's Mila doing?'
...

 For some reason, Dad's expression darkened all at once this time.

 Could it be that something happened to Mira...?
 Come to think of it, I came back and there was no sign of him coming out.

 I thought he was angry at me for leaving without telling him, but if that was the reason he was sick or something--

"...Mila would be upstairs in her room. Of course she's usually fine,

 Somehow, Dad's sulky response made me feel better about myself.
 Good.

 I was just about to go upstairs when I heard him muttering to himself from behind me.

'I beat you with mom, but you won't do it with dad...'

 I'm not going to be sulking about it.
 To begin with, unlike the sword, if my dad and I get into a serious magical battle, the people around us will be severely damaged.



 Thump.

"Mira, it's me. It's my brother. I'm back.

 I knocked in front of Mira's room, but there was no answer from inside.
 However, there was a hint of someone in the room.

'Mira, you're in there, aren't you? ...coming in?

 It didn't seem to be locked, so I opened the door and walked in.

 My sister was sitting on the bed with her back to me.

'Mira?'
....
How are you doing?
....
I'm sorry I left without saying a word.
My brother is an idiot.

 I thought I had finally responded and that was it.
 Apparently, he's quite angry.

'I'm sorry, I need to get back in a good mood.
My brother is an idiot.
Now, at least look at me and show your brother your pretty face.
My brother is an idiot.

 There's no nibbling.
 There's no sign of anyone looking at me, and I think she might have grown to dislike me in earnest.

 It would be counterproductive to try to get her to forgive me.
 I had no choice but to leave the room.





What's going on?

 As I relaxed in our bath, I was pondering.

 My sweet sister hated me.
 I've been sticky since I was a little girl.

 Now I'm still in the bath alone.
 After all, Mila doesn't even want to take a bath with me anymore.

 As I was thinking this, the door to the bathroom opened and Mila came in.

'Mira?'
My brother is an idiot.

 With her mouth puffed out, Mira puffs up and says that, but she settles down next to me in the tub.
 However, she keeps her back to me.

'Mira, will you forgive your brother?'
My brother is an idiot.
"Mira.
My brother is an idiot.
"Mira.
My brother is an idiot.
"Mira.
My brother is an idiot.

 In the end, Mira didn't say a word to me.

 That night, as I was going to bed, Mira came into my room.

'Mira?'
My brother is an idiot.

 And then he crawls into my bed.
 But he still has his back to me.

"Mira.
My brother is an idiot.
"Mira.
My brother is an idiot.
"Mira.
My brother is an idiot.

 I guess he really hated me after all........

''.........I think he's simply sulking, no matter what you think, Ked? (BOTH)'
