25 Ch 25
As Lucoa and I are flirting, the battle in the bounded field seemed to be nearing an end, to be quite honest, I wouldn't have noticed if I didn't start to feel a large amount of magic coming from the leader of Magical Deck, his name should be King if what Spade said was true, and Ushiwakamaru released.
Feeling that things might get interesting I reluctantly stopped flirting with Lucoa to see what will happen next.
Looking at the current battlefield it's no surprise that Ushiwakamaru's group has the upper hand but they are being held back at this moment thanks to Magical Deck having hostages.
Looking at the hostages other than Natsuki and Spade I saw two of my underclassmen but why are the pink hair girls being held hostage.
Not caring about them for now, as it seems a fight is going to start any moment now.
Looking at Ushiwakamaru she seemed to be ready to attack King as her blade starts to glow while Musashibō Benkei goes after the man with the shield sacred gear as the Shinigami(s) surround Diamond.
When everyone was in possession Ushiwakamaru disappeared from her spot as Musashibō Benkei rushes to his opponent while the Shinigami(s) all attack Diamond trying to distance her from the hostages.
King seeing Ushiwakamaru disappeared erected a barrier but only for it to be cut the next instance as Ushiwakamaru appears with her blade next to his neck.
After finding Ushiwakamaru's blade next to his neck King stopped any more movements as his other two standing subordinates were also captured.
Seeing everything was over I was disappointed as it was too fast but it's expected as his opponents are two Servants along with a group Shinigami(s) he stood no chance to began with.
After capturing the last members of Magical Deck Ushiwakamaru had every member of Magical Deck tied up as she seems to be in a capture mission so no one was killed just knocked out.
Once all members of Magical Deck were tied up the bounded field disappear as Ushiwakamaru had it destroyed by some of her men while the others are tending to the normal people by erasing and altering their memories after questing them.
Seeing the bounded field disappear Lucoa and I started to walk Ushiwakamaru, as she's overseeing the questioning of the hostages.
When we reached Ushiwakamaru she was questioning Natsuki and Spade, especially Spade as he never changed out of his Magical Deck uniform.
Natsuki seeing us walk towards him called out to us as he's nervous by Ushiwakamaru questioning.
"Shouta, Lucoa, can you two explain to her Spade isn't part of Magical Deck anymore." Natsuki
Hearing Natsuki's words Ushiwakamaru stopped questioning Spade and looked towards us.
"You two, I thought you guys already left." Ushiwakamaru
"We stayed behind to watch and to help if needed as Natsuki is my maid and Spade is his familiar, he's also an ex-member of Magical Deck so he isn't part of this attack." Shouta
"Hmmm, I still don't see why you stayed, we had everything under control. After all, it's just a small mage group, I could even have dealt with everything on my own, but I have to take these newbies to get experience." Ushiwakamaru
Hearing her self-confident statement reminds me she has a yearning to be praised but she won't admit upfront so she does subconsciously low-key brags to get attention.
Thinking about this fact I came up with a plan to tease her.
"Yes, I know that. After all your the might Ushiwakamaru, your skills are even more impressive than told in stories." Shouta
Hearing my praise Ushiwakamaru started to show a happy expression but I continue to talk.
"But that doesn't mean you can't make mistakes so to be on the safe side I chose to stay behind." Shouta
Hearing my latter statement Ushiwakamaru stopped smiling and looked angrily at me as it seems like I'm questioning her abilities as a warrior to read a battlefield.
"What do mean by that, this was a simple and easy mission, how can I make a mistake. It's laughable to even think about me making a mistake on such a simple mission" Ushiwakamaru
"I don't mean it in a bad way, after all, you are Ushiwakamaru, a perfect samurai but unexpected stuff do happen. Plus, I wouldn't like it if a cute girl like you would have gotten hurt." Shouta
Hearing my words Ushiwakamaru became happy once again, but when she heard me call her cute she started to fidget a little.
It seems she's not used to people calling her cute, but it seems she doesn't dislike it.
But, before I can continue my plan to tease Ushiwakamaru Lucoa pinched me stopping me before I can say any more words to Ushiwakamaru.
Feeling Lucoa pinched me I turned to her, but I only saw her usual smile on her face before she started to speak to Ushiwakamaru.
"Shouta is right, unexpected things do happen, and we are only worried for our friends." Lucoa
Hearing Lucoa Ushiwakamaru calmed down and we moved on in our conversation, as Lucoa and I witness today's events she started to question us as well, as she needs to make a report of today's events.
When she started to question me all I could say was that I was entranced by her as I was only paying attention to her during today's events, which was true as I just kept looking at her breast for a possible nip slip, so she didn't get that much from question me but started to blush after hearing my words.
After Ushiwakamaru finished questioning us, she left with her group with the tied members of Magical Deck after telling us she made it so the school day was canceled because of fear of another gas leak happening.
Seeing her leave I turned to Lucoa and Natsuki, who had Spade in his plushie form sitting on his shoulder.
Looking at them I started to speak to them after I got their attention on me.
"Well, we have another day off, lucky us. Lucia can you open a portal to my room so Natsuki can get into his maid uniform." Shouta
"Sure." Lucoa
After Lucoa heard my request she opened a portal to my room letting Natsuki enter it to get change.
Once Natsuki enters the portal and change to his maid uniform, as I made him keep it in his school bag so he always has it on him, he came out of the portal a little embarrassed.
After Natsuki returned I started to speak once more.
"Okay, now that you change let's go to my dad's office. He'll enjoy our surprise visit, especially as I'm going to help him with a little problem he's having." Shouta
Hearing my words Natsuki was confused but as he's my maid he just follows without saying anything, while Lucoa didn't care about what's going on as she likes to go with the flow.
After seeing them have no objections we headed to the bus station before heading to my dad's office.
Fun fact my dad owns the building and company he's working at and even the company itself is a front.
His company acts like a normal computer software company to outsiders but in all actuality, it's just moving money for my dad, whose main occupation is that of an alchemist.
It also seems beside moving money for my dad his company is doing software jobs for the supernatural world but his employees know nothing about this little fact.
After riding the bus we made it to my dad's company.
Entering the building I walked to the representative desk and ask to meet my dad.
After informing the representative she had called my dad before I was allowed to enter deeper into the building to meet my dad.
After getting the okay to meet my dad I started to walk to the elevator and headed to the top floor to say hi to my dad before looking for Elma.
Once getting on the elevator it moved up a couple of floors until it stopped on one of the many floors.
Seeing the elevator doors open I saw three people walk in and to my surprise, I saw Kobayashi and her otaku guy friend.
As for the other person it was a woman with short black hair with purple tips, large breasts, and blue eyes wearing round glasses, she's none other than Elma, the dragon I was looking for by coming here.
Kobayashi seeing me was surprised as well but when she saw Natsuki she started to frown a little, while Elma on the other hand started to stare at Lucoa then me with a questioning look, as for the otaku guy, he doesn't know what's going on so he greeted us normally.
"Hello, I'm Makoto Takiya, are you here to visit family?" Takiya
Hearing Takiya I answered him.
"Yes, I'm here to see my dad, I'm Shouta Magatsuchi and the lovely woman next to me is Lucoa, while the boy dressed as a maid is Natsuki Nanahoshi." Shouta
"Magatsuchi? Is your dad our boss?" Takiya
"Yes, he is. I'm here for a visit as my classes were called off for the day. Also, I'm here for her." Shouta
After I finished speaking I pointed to Elma who became surprised by my words.
Not knowing what to say Elma pointed to herself in confusion while speaking to me.
"Me, why are you here for me?" Elma
Hearing her I answered truthfully.
"I want you as a maid, I'll feed you lots of delicious food if you do. I'll even take you to a buffet, an all you can eat." Shouta
Hearing my offer everyone was dumbfounded as it's unexpected.
Lucoa and Kobayashi seem to wanted to say something to me but Elma was the first to speak.
"Buffet, I'm in, I'll be your maid!" Elma
Seeing her agree so easily I'm surprised, but then I remembered she broke her friendship with Tohru because some humans gave her lots of food, so her changing her job to my maid after I offered her to eat at a buffet and lots of food makes some sense.
After getting her agreement I had her come with us while handing her my box lunch as I'm not going to eat it as we're going to a buffet after meeting my dad.
After Elma joined my group we headed to my dad to explain her new situation to him, as she needs to quit and she'll be living with us so I need to inform him or my mom beforehand.
While we head to my dad's office Kobayashi and Takiya are dumbfounded at what just happened.
Leaving behind a dumbfounded Kobayashi and Takiya, as they forgot to enter the elevator, we went to my dad's office without them.
As the elevator was going to the top floor Elma started to eat my lunch while Lucoa started to ask me questions.
"Shouta baby, why do you want Elma as a maid, and have you two met before?" Lucoa
"Oh, I just felt like having a dragon maid like Kobayashi and I haven't met Elma before." Shouta
"Is that so, you just want another maid. I guess another sister wife will join me, seeing how you found her weaknesses it won't take long." Lucoa
"Hugh, why do you think I'm after her I just met her today and how did you find out I know her weakness." Shouta
"Oh, your mom told us earlier today an employee eating all the food in the employee fridge, and besides someone with a wired body no one normal person can eat that much food but for a dragon, let alone Elma a famous glutton, can eat all that food without a problem. Knowing this you probably guessed Elma loved food, so you offered her delicious food to work for you and seeing how fast agreed, it was easy for you to see her weakness. As for you being instead in Elma, I guess you are doing the same thing as Kanna, you're just waiting for your feelings to grow as they aren't in the love at first sight category like me and Latifa, you know, Kanna actually might be in this category it's just she doesn't understand her feelings yet and you're needlessly concerned about her appearance." Lucoa
Hearing her I felt lost but I had to ask something as I might be misunderstanding something.
"How old is Kanna anyway? I never tried to find out." Shouta
"Oh, she's 300 something. You can consider her as what you call a legal loli and while her emotional state is like a kid, this fact might have made you misunderstood her for an actual kid, you don't have to worry as she won't stay like that forever, especially now as I'm seeing her grow emotionally. I think it won't take long for her to start finding out what love is but you'll have to wait a little longer for that. Also, if you're concerned about her appearance she can change it, she's just in her child form to save energy." Lucoa
Hearing Lucoa I was dumbfounded by Kanna's actual age and started to think about my situation with her, do I want our relationship to grow to such an extent as lovers like Lucoa or just stay as we are.
I see her as a little sister thanks to the system but Lucoa says we have deeper feelings that may lead to love.
Thinking about it I just change our relationship to that of siblings so I can hug her but I don't see her as a sister in any deep sense it's just superficial in some ways, I see her as a little sister figure in my life but not comply as one.
Kanna is also the same as she doesn't see me as her true big bother as she doesn't call me her brother or anything like that.
Wait, now that I know she's 300 and the relationship I made between us is that of big brother and little sister, no wonder our relationship feels superficial at times, it wasn't because the percentage of the relationship was low it was because our relationship would never be complete as it's illogical for a boy my age to be an older brother to a 300 something dragon.
We are just developing feelings for each other all along while looking at each other in these molds I put us in but Lucoa can see right through this and told me what's happening to us.
As I thinking about my relationship with Kanna deeply the elevator had finally reached the top floor.
