Pure Love ✕ Insult Complex

Chapter 1178. Short Series A / Human Success Part 1

After selling the pastries in school during lunch break…

Today, I’m leaving early together with Katsuko-nee in her car.

I get on the business use minivan from the mansion.

Then, I went to Misuzu’s school.

It’s Agnes and the girls’ entrance exam today.

She’s going to take the test to enter the top school for young ladies in Japan and have her interview.

「 Agnes-chan wanted you to pick her up 」

Agnes had been confined in the mansion’s basement ever since she was born.

She’s become a cheerful talkative girl thanks to the increase in our family, but…

This is her first time going to a school.

「 Well, Luna-chan, Koyomi-chan, and Yomi-chan are with her so she should be okay I think 」

Katsuko-nee said.

Nowadays, Luna is Agnes’ best friend.

And she wants to protect Koyomi-chan, who’s timid.

Well, in fact, it’s actually Koyomi-chan and the girls who are supporting Agnes as they know more of the outside world, and they have their Miko power.

「 Katsuko-nee, thanks 」

This morning, when Katsuko-nee and I entered the bakery in school.

She went back to the mansion and brought Agnes and the girls to the school for the young ladies.

Then, she came back to high school to sell pastries on lunch.

And now, she picked me and is going to the school for the young ladies again.

「 I don’t mind. Nagisa’s in her shop, Minaho-ojousama’s training the women, and so I’m the only adult that can move around 」

Katsuko-nee said.

「 Oh, do thank Kouzuki-sama too. He went all the way to come 」

I see.

Agnes’s guardian and sponsor, Jii-chan, is going to that school too.

「 Kouzuki-sama is a trustee of that school so he didn’t have to come and just use the power of the Kouzuki house to influence the school, but, the teachers in that place hate that kind of pressure on them 」

If he just used his pressure as a trustee without showing up then there will be opposition.

The teachers of that school may treat Agnes and the girls poorly.

That’s why Jii-chan’s going to meet up with the teachers directly.

「 Besides, it’s that kind of school so the interview always has their guardian accompanying them. But, since we’re from the other side, we have no choice but to ask Kouzuki-sama to appear instead 」

Yeah.

A person from the Kouzuki house can’t be a guarantor in that school.

If Misuzu or Ruriko are already adults, then the situation would be different, but for now, there will be no social trust unless it’s Jii-chan.

「 As of today, their enrollment is already decided. The groundwork is already laid down. I mean, if the head of the Kouzuki house is the one attending to enroll them, then there’s no way they will refuse 」

It’s for the sake of Agnes and the girls who are taking the entrance exam today.

Their scholarly exam gets marked every time they’re done on a subject.

「 Their exam results will be out once they reach their interview so I don’t think there’s much to worry about, but… 」

「 I wonder if Agnes will be okay? 」

Yomi, Luna, and Koyomi-chan have good grades at school so I’m not worried about them.

As for Agnes, she started cramming kindergarten-level education several months ago, so …

「 She’s flawless in arithmetic. Agnes is quite the smart girl. She has problems in memorizing science but Luna-chan and the girls made her learn it like a game. As for social studies, she’s made to think that it’s like a setting of a game or a manga. That girl doesn’t see the world outside the mansion as real after all 」

It doesn’t differ from a world someone created.

「 The problem is her Japanese 」

Katsuko-nee sighed.

「 She’s learned her letters, but, she’s has a weird grammar she uses in daily life 」

Agnes’ way of speaking is unique.

「 She grew up hardly speaking ever since she was a child, see? That’s why she doesn’t have a sense of distance in her speech. I think that’s one of the causes 」

Agnes doesn’t speak formally, and she doesn’t know how to talk casually either.

She calls everyone in the family with a “-chan” suffix, apart from Luna and me

She’s calling Luna without a suffix to express that she’s a special friend of hers.

「 The first girl she got along with is Mao-chan, who speaks like a toddler, then Edie-chan and Nei-chan’s speech are quite unique too and they were with her for long 」

Edie and Nei’s unique speaking.

「 But, it should be good as long as she doesn’t copy Edie and Ya-chan, right? 」

「 Right, but if possible, we want her to learn Ruriko-chan and Tsukiko-san’s formal way of speaking 」

Hmmm.

「 No, I don’t know what to feel if Agnes starts to speak like a young lady 」

I don’t think that’s going to be like her.

「 Anyway, since we already established that Agnes-chan is a girl who returned from abroad, that’s going to give her the leeway, but still 」

Blaming her weird Japanese for living on foreign land for long.

「 Isn’t that why we had to teach Agnes English? 」

She’s a returnee, so her Japanese is weird, but she should be proficient in the Foreign language.

It’s going to be hard to continue fooling everyone with that “Bakerata” language she used at the party in the Kouzuki house.

「 Edie-chan, Nei-chan, and Margo-san taught her well in that regard, but..well, she only needs to learn English on an elementary level so it should be okay, I think 」

Yeah, she doesn’t need to read some hard English books or listen to some of the harder words.

Agnes’s age is in sixth grade, so all she needs is to learn books for Elementary students and know shows for kids in America.

「 I mean, Agnes-chan is much better in English than you now 」

Katsuko-nee sends me a glance while driving.

「 Well, true 」

I’m just the dumb kid in our family.

I can’t even study properly in school.

「 Ai-chan’s starting her foreign language study. She wants to read some foreign-made pastry recipes, I heard 」

She started learning how to make pastries after me and yet, Ai’s getting better.

Maybe she has good senses, or maybe she’s just talented.

「 Yeah, I got to work harder. 」

It’s going to be frustrating if she keeps pushing the distance.

「 Don’t push yourself too hard. Ai-chan focuses only on pastries but you deal with a lot of women every day 」

Katsuko-nee said.

「 That’s true, but still 」

I can’t just focus on sex and nothing else.

I can’t have a lifestyle like that.

「 You’re already doing your very best even now so shorten your scope on what you can reach. 」 If you collapse from overwork, nobody will be there to replace you 」

Right, I can’t collapse.

I can’t mentally collapse or run away from this life.

I have to keep my family safe.

「 If you’re going to force yourself, then you will be forced to take a holiday. Minaho-ojousama, Nagisa, Nei-chan, and I check your status every day 」

The oldest members of the group, Minaho-neesan, Katsuko-nee, Nagisa, Nei, and Margo-san.

They’re my sisters that always watch over me.

「 Yeah, You’re right. Thanks 」

I thanked Katsuko-nee.

「 You should go to a hot spring with Nei-chan for a change of pace. Currently, I think that the family can settle themselves even if you’re gone for two or three days 」

In fact. During the summer of last year, I’ve spent days with different groups of girls.

We have more in our family compared to back then and the groups have become more subdivided, but…

Agnes will allow me to go on a trip abroad as long as I give her a video call every day.

「 But maybe not now. I still have to brace for a lot of stuff 」

Minaho-neesan’s about to open her new brothel.

We also have our school festival. Kana-senpai’s tennis club will collab with our bakery.

Oh right, there’s also Misuzu’s school fest.

Also, Ruriko’s school trip.

Margo-san and Edie’s martial arts tournament.

Also, Momoko-neechan’s rape showdown.

Even now…

「 I got to be with Agnes and the girls until she got used to her school life 」

「 Yeah, it’ll take some time 」

Katsuko-nee says while stopping the car at a red light.

「 Yeah, I can’t feel at ease until she’s succeeded her entrance exam 」

I hope Agnes doesn’t get too nervous that she panics.

I hope she doesn’t say anything unnecessary during her interview.

Like, her sex life with me.

「 It’s Agnes’ first time to go away from the mansion, get into an unfamiliar location, surrounded by strangers, and asked questions 」

「 We asked them to keep Luna-chan and the girls in the same room as her during her exam and interview just in case so I think it’s going to be okay 」

Katsuko-nee sighed while driving.

「 Yeah, Luna did say that they’ll use their Miko power to stop Agnes if she tries to say something weird 」

It’s also Luna and the girls’ first time going to that kind of school.

「 We can’t do anything even if we worry. All we have to go is watch over them 」

Katsuko-nee stepped on the accelerator as soon as the lights say go.

◇　◇　◇

The car arrived at Misuzu’s school.

It’s close to the city center, and yet, it holds a spacious plot.

I mean, this is amazing.

The school is surrounded by a wall that you can’t see inside.

If this was a white wall then it would look like a prison, but…

It’s a stylishly designed wall made from reddish-brown bricks and some ivy twisted around. It has its charm.

「 We’re going in 」

Katsuko-nee’s car faces the gate that says “Guardian Exclusive Entrance”

Nearly a hundred percent of the students in this school have their students commuting via car so there’s a parking lot at the entrance.

Of course, the bodyguards are monitoring 24/7

The gate we went through is now closed.

「 Oh, those are Kouzuki-sama’s guards 」

The uniforms in the guard office are familiar.

「 Well yes, Kouzuki-sama’s a trustee 」

Kouzuki SS is a security specialist company for the nobility, business and political leaders, and their families.

So it’s natural that they’re in charge of the security of the school for the young ladies.

「 We’re family with the girls in the entrance exam. We’ve come here to pick them up. Wait, we already talked this morning, haven’t we? 」

Katsuko-nee smiled from the driver’s seat and show the entry permit that she received beforehand.

The bodyguard sent me a glance.

Thinking that it’s not good if I go in wearing my school uniform so I am wearing a suit.

「 This man is the brother of the girl taking the exam 」

Katsuko-nee said with a smile.

「 Yeah, good day 」

I greeted the security.

「 Sugiyama-kun, what’s wrong? 」

Shou-neechan appears from the office.

「 No, Kakka’s in here so I had to double-check 」

Oh right, since Jii-chan’s here, Shou-neechan is also here.

The uniform bodyguards are also much nervous than usual.

「 They’re no problem, let them through 」

Shou-neechan told the security and smiled at us.

「 She’s Kuromori Kou-sama. Kouzuki Misuzu-sama’s partner. You’re also a staff of Kouzuki SS so you should remember his face 」

Right, Kouzuki SS is my company now.

「 I’m sorry! Let them through 」

The bodyguard saluted to me.

「 Please wait on the left parking lot. They’ll be leaving soon. Oh, they took the entrance exam together by the way 」

There are uniformed guards present so Shou-neechan’s speaking to me politely.

「 That’s great. Thanks 」

I thanked Shou-neechan.

「 Then, we’ll be waiting in the designated location 」

Katsuko-nee greeted Shou-neechan.

「 Gate open! 」

The uniformed guard sends a sign to the office.

The iron gate opens.

「 Then… 」

Katsuko-nee drives the car forward.

「 Our car is a luxury car so they won’t be checking ours with much strictness 」

Katsuko-nee smiled wryly.

「 We have a lot of girls to go back home so we could’ve brought the Benz, Rolls-Royce, or the minivan, but… 」

Katsuko-nee and I, then there’s Agnes, Luna, Koyomi-chan, and Yomi.

The minivan’s the only choice we have.

「 Misuzu-chan’s right on getting two cars when going to school now. So far, it’s just the driver, Misuzu-chan, Ruriko-chan, and Michi-chan, and yet, if you add Karen-chan, well, five of them can still fit in. But recently. Mariko-chan’s also joining them so that makes it six 」

I guess it would look poor if the young ladies of the young ladies go to their school in a domestic minivan

Now, Kouzuki SS is using two luxury cars, housing each of the teams.

「 The students are still in the middle of their class so you can’t meet with Misuzu-chan and the girls 」

Yeah, we went here in my fifth class.

「 Err, the left parking lot they say 」

Katsuko-nee parks the car

It’s facing the other side of the school building

「 All we have to do is wait here. Dear, do you want to go out and breathe in some fresh air? 」

Katsuko-nee said, but…

「 No. It’s an all girls’ school so I don’t want to stand out 」

I look for cameras while in the car, part of my habit.

Oh, it’s obvious but there’s one.

Of course.

This is the top school for young ladies in Japan. Of course, their security is tight.

「 Oh, there they are 」

Katsuko-nee said. I looked at the school building and…

Jii-chan and Agnes and the girls come out.

Of course, Jii-chan has his personal bodyguards with him.

Oh, Yazawa-san too.

He’s currently the head of Kouzuki SS, and he gave the chief seat to Shou-neechan.

「 Agnes, Luna, Koyomi-chan, Yomi! 」

I opened the window and called them.

「 Wow!! 」

Agnes noticed me and came running.

「 Hey! Agnes-chan! 」

Yomi tries to chase after Agnes.

Koyomi-chan and Luna greeted Jii-chan with a bow and came to us.

I also greeted Jii-chan from the car.

Jii-chan smiled and waved his hand lightly.

「!!! 」

「 Agnes-chan, don’t! 」

Agnes is about to call me “Papa” but Yomi stopped her.

She can’t make such a careless remark when there are other people around.

There’s also a microphone in the cameras.

「 Come here Agnes 」

I opened the door and beckoned Agnes.

「 Uuuuu 」

Agnes jumped to me with a half-crying face.

「 How was it, was it scary, Agnes? 」

「 I mean. There’s a lot of strangers around 」

I gently pat Agnes’ back.

「 It’s okay now 」

「 Uuuu, it was scary 」

As expected, she’s shocked that she left the mansion and went to an unknown world.

「 There, there. Good work Yomi. Luna and Koyomi-chan, good job on passing 」

「 Yes, Nii-san, Agnes-chan did her best 」

Luna said.

「 Luna and the girls did their best too. So I’m able to pass my test! 」

Agnes clings to me and said.

「 Yes, that’s great. We’ll have a party for passing the exams in the mansion! 」

Katsuko-nee says from the driver’s seat

「 As expected of Katsuko-oneesama! 」

Yomi and the girls cheered.

Then.

「 Uhm, Kuromori-san 」

Koyomi-chan looked at me.

「 What’s wrong? 」

「 Uhm, it seems that he has some business with Kuromori-san? 」

Who’s mind is Koyomi-chan reading?

Then, I saw Yazawa-san coming over.

「 Oh, it’s been a while, boy 」

He looked at me and smiled.

Recently, Shou-neechan’s been the one who’s doing things around the Kouzuki SS, so…

I haven’t met Yazawa-san that much.

「 Yes, it’s been a while indeed 」

I bow my head to Yazawa-san while hugging Agnes.

「 Kakka told me about it. Well, I want to discuss that topic, but… 」

Oh, Jii-chan handed the Kouzuki SS to me.

So, he had to tell Yazawa-san, the top of the organization.

「 There’s no need to rush. Seki-kun had to be there, and if possible, I want Misuzu-sama and Ruriko-sama present in the conversation as well 」

Yeah, Kouzuki SS was formerly Jii-chan’s private army.

So it’s not included in the Kouzuki house’s enterprise group.

That’s why not even Shiba-san, who’s currently the one managing the Kouzuki group, can control it.

Not even the branch families in the Kouzuki house can touch it.

Legally speaking, Misuzu and Ruriko are the ones to inherit it, since they’re Jii-chan’s granddaughters.

But since he gave it to me, I should have a discussion with Yazawa-san, Ruriko, and Misuzu.

「 That’s not it. Do you have time right now? 」

Huh?

「 Well, Kakka wanted to talk to you. So, if you could come to a nearby hotel of the Kouzuki group 」

Yazawa-san told me.

Jii-chan wants to talk?

Then, I saw Jii-chan’s black limousine with the vehicles from Kouzuki SS in front and behind, stopping in front of us.

Jii-chan sends me a glance. Then gets in the car.

His bodyguards went in too.

「 Okay. I’ll go. We’ve been in Jii-chan’s care today after all

I replied to Yazawa-san.

「 Oh, then come after our convoy. Okay? 」

「 Yes, I understand 」

Katsuko-nee replied.

「 Okay, see you later 」

Yazawa-san said and got inside the front car.

「 Get in girls. We’re going with them 」

「 Okay 」

「 Koyomi-chan and the girls got in the car and closed it 」

「 Agnes, it’s going to be dangerous if we parted while you’re still clinging. Take a seat 」

I told Agnes, but…

「 Papa. Sex… 」

Agnes whispered to me with an uneasy face, not letting me go

「 Agnes, can’t feel at ease unless Papa have sex with me right now 」

Eeeeh?

H-Here?
