Chapter 436 Every Brother and Sister are Usually Like this

「――That’s why we rushed here.」

「Uh-huh.」

「… Are you listening seriously? Also, are your legs okay?」

「I’m listening seriously and my legs aren’t okay. Heal them, Chinatsu-chan!」

(It sure is serious, but Lilyvia-san seems more energetic than it looks, huh….)

After listening to Chinatsu’s brief and easy-to-understand explanation, Lilyvia seems to have come to understand how Haruna’s group came here. With the arrival of the long-awaited recovery personnel and the unexpected good news, Lilyvia seems to be very pleased. She is so pleased that Chinatsu is suspicious of her.

「I see, I understand now. Still, it seems that Riara-oneesama was beaten up pretty badly by 『my』 disciple and her friends, huh? Pfft.」

「It’s not that I lose to Lilyvia~. It was 1 vs. 3, and I was thrown into chaos by their ridiculous abilities, so it was normal to lose once~. Also, I was drunk~」

「Is there a time when you’re not drunk? Well, I was able to fight more than equal even against the three of them plus one other person, you know? This must be the difference between you and me.」

「Well~, I don’t want to be told so by someone who needs to be nursed and healed by her disciple~. Just like me stop drinking blood, that’s impossible~」

「Chinatsu-chan isn’t my disciple, so it doesn’t count. Also, please don’t use something you can’t do as an example. I am talking about reality, not fantasy!」

「Right back at you

「「――I’ll kill you.」」

「Um, please don’t get violent.」

They kept arguing like this during the treatment, so Chinatsu couldn’t concentrate at all. As for Odile, she has been watching from the shadow form a while ago.

「I’m back!」

「I’m back. Lily-shishō, you are noisy. What if we got found out by the monster that we shouldn’t fight? Also, as someone who has fought both of you, I think both of you are just as strong as each other. Even if you are quarreling like that, you won’t get the answer, you know?」

Haruna and Touko, who went to the ballroom ruins to look for the two sisters, came back at that time. Chinatsu, who wanted to do something about the stagnant atmosphere, breathed a sigh of relief.

「Welcome back. How was it?」

「Ursula-san and Katarina-san were barely alive.」

「Wow, as expected of them, they have ridiculous vitality ♪」

「Tch!」

Chinatsu felt like she heard someone clicked their tongue from the shadow, but she pretends she didn’t hear it. I heard that it was an explosive ability, but to think that she would self-destruct.]

「Ursula-oneesama will be a meathead when her anger reached a certain amount. It was a nonsense battle that she didn’t think about the future.」

「…… It might be not my place to say this as your enemy~. Setting aside Katarina-oneesama, I think it’s dangerous to leave Ursula-oneesama as it is~. She certainly self-destructed her whole body, but it wasn’t her first time~. I think she will relentlessly come for Lilyvia ~. I don’t mind, though~」

「I also think that she will do that. I provoked her a lot after all.」

「How envious, I envy her regeneration… but if anything, death to Katarina….」

Chinatsu heard a cursing from the shadow, but she also pretends she didn’t hear it.

「Then, I will show her a nightmare after my legs are healed. That should buy us enough time for a day.」

「Ah, I think there’s no need to worry about her. After all, Haruna took appropriate measures when we found them.」

「Eh, did you approach Ursula? Setting aside Katarina, Ursula is dangerous, so you shouldn’t get close――」

「Yes, I didn’t approach her. Approaching her was dangerous, so I created poisonous mud with a paralysis effect and kept throwing it at her wounds from a distance! Even if she regenerated, I think she won’t be able to move even a fingertip for a while!」

(((Uwaah, how nasty…)))

Haruna made a small animal-like gesture as if to say ‘I did it!’, but the action itself was very nasty. Chinatsu, Lilyvia, and Riara smiled wryly as they imagined that scene. On the other hand, Odile was giving a thumbs-up and respected Haruna’s feat in the shadow. Good job.

「You sisters sure are on good terms, huh~. I also have younger brothers, so I can understand that feeling!」

「Haru-chan, are you blind? Why do you see it like that?」

「I and my brothers used to quarrel a lot when we were little after all~」

「I think the degree is quite different…. Ah, that’s right. Odile-oneesamaaa! Stop being shy in front of other people and come here! I will introduce you again!」

「H-How envious. I envy Lily-senpai who can speak so loudly without hesitation…!」

「Don’t suddenly develop shyness. Aren’t you the vampire who made Ursula-oneesama overwhelmed?」

「Even if you say so, I can’t meet so many people in a day…. I’ve reached the limit of my tolerance…」

「Don’t say that~. This pony girl, Haru-chan is Gobuo-san’s boss~.」

「!? I’m coming now!」

The moment she heard that, Odile rushed quickly. The difference in speed of her action was so great that Haruna and Touko unconsciously took a stance. However, Odile does not care about such a trivial matter, or rather, it seems that she does not have the time to care about it.

「Y-Y-Y-You see, G-G-G-G-Gobuo-san, uh, gobugobu…!」

「Huh?」

「Odile-oneesama, your words changed into Gobunese. Calm down. Yes, take a deep breath.」

「O-Okay. *Breathes in* *breathes out*…. Haruchan-san, please let me marry Gobuo-san!」

「Huh!?」

「Hey, Odile-oneesama. Various things are not right, such as her name and the order. You really have strange courage in strange places, huh.」

Odile takes a deep breath again and checks the situation.

「…… Once again, it might be not my place to say this as your enemy~」

「What is it now, Riara-oneesama?」

「You guys, is it okay to be so relaxed? It’s true that we sisters have been defeated, but there are still Mama and two monsters that are more dangerous than Ursula-oneesama, you know~?」

「Oh, you mean the ones that Alezel said to be dangerous?」

「We also still have to rescue the hostages.」

「I hope Therese-san’s group is on their way there…」

「*Breathes in* *breathes out*…. Don’t worry, I’m sure my best friends will take the best course of action. I guarantee it.」

「Eh, ah, yes, thank you…?」

Odile, who seems to be in the position of a self-proclaimed best friend, was filled with mysterious confidence. Naturally, Chinatsu did not quite understand the meaning of that confidence.

「I also think it’s going to be okay! Not only about rescuing the hostages, but also about the very strong enemies!」

「Well, aren’t you full of confidence? Pony-chan, it seems that you have a reason for your confidence, huh?」

「Yes! We have reliable masters after all!」
