Chapter 486: 48. Strong Shizuka-chan
Kusanagi House, Living Room—
"Thank you, Arianna-san."
"So, the stone tablet Onii-chan sent to Grandpa's friend was actually a magic book that sealed the power of a god, and Onii-chan fought with that so-called War God for various reasons and became a god-slaying Demon King, and in the process, he met Miss Erica and formed a relationship of knight and lover due to various bonds, is that right?!"
Taking the hot tea brought by the maid, Shizuka-chan sat properly on the sofa, took a sip of tea, and looked at Sora and Erica sitting hand in hand opposite her, her eyes twitching as she said in a low voice.
"Ha… That's probably it. Although something else happened with another idiotic fool later, there's no need to tell Shizuka-chan about that brat's affairs, so as not to pollute your ears, my dear sister."
Suppressing the restless feeling of Erica's two soft breasts constantly rubbing against his arm, Sora replied with as calm an expression as possible.
"Oh my, my King, is it alright for you to tell Shizuka-chan all these things? Most people would definitely not be able to accept it!"
With a strange glint in her beautiful eyes and a slight cunning smile at the corner of her mouth, Erica said with a smile.
"Ahem… You don't need to worry about that. My sister is not an ordinary person. At least her nerves are absolutely tough, so there's no need to worry about her breaking down."
As if thinking of something, feeling a little awkward, Sora replied.
Hearing Sora's words, Erica looked towards Shizuka-chan on the side.
Indeed, besides still having a low expression, not knowing what she was thinking, the girl did not show the surprised or disbelieving expression that was expected.
"Heh… Shizuka-chan, aren't you surprised? About the gods and your brother becoming a Demon King, I think at this time you should show a look of doubt or shock, it would be more appropriate!"
A hint of interest arose in her heart, and Erica had a look of great interest.
"Hmph! I stopped having that kind of reaction eight years ago when this idiotic Onii-chan fell from the sky and landed in our yard!"
Hearing Shizuka-chan's voice, a sharp light flashed in Erica's eyes, as if she had heard something incredible, but she didn't interrupt and continued to listen silently.
"He was only seven or eight years old, and the first thing he did after waking up was eat dozens of servings of food! He was sent to school by Grandpa and jumped from first grade to fifth grade in one year!"
"When he was nine, he met a group of delinquent high school students on his way home from school, but he beat them up with his small arms and legs until they cried and begged for mercy on their knees!"
"In the summer when he was ten, he suddenly said he was going out to train with a sword on his back, and then he ran away from home alone. When he came back, he had become a martial arts superman who could jump and leap, and from then on, we never had to take the bus to school anymore!"
"When he was eleven…"
…
"Hehe, do you think that after being influenced by such an abnormal Onii-chan since childhood, those things about gods and Demon Kings can still scare me?!"
Putting down the cup in her hand, Shizuka-chan sneered, raised her head, and instantly burst into a dazzling light, almost blinding everyone's titanium alloy dog eyes!
Clap! Clap! Clap…
The whole room was silent for a few seconds, and then there was a loud round of applause. Of course, it wasn't for a certain scoundrel, but for Shizuka-chan.
"Miss Shizuka is amazing!"
The maid, Arianna, clapped her hands and stared blankly at Shizuka-chan, her eyes full of sympathy and admiration.
"Ah, perhaps it should be said that she is indeed a woman of the Kusanagi family. Her brother is a god-slaying Demon King, and even her sister is so strong. It's truly not easy for Shizuka-chan to be able to grow up smoothly in such an environment!"
Clapping her hands with great sincerity, this was Erica's voice.
It's truly incredible that Shizuka-chan could grow up smoothly without getting heart disease or anything with such a monstrous older brother!
Even Erica's expression towards Shizuka-chan couldn't help but show a hint of sympathy and affection. Shizuka-chan, you've really had a hard time all these years. From now on, as your sister-in-law, I will take good care of you and love you!
Erica thought silently in her heart…
"Hey, hey, what are you all staring at me for? Don't look at me like I'm a criminal!"
Seeing the three girls all looking at him, their expressions either resentful or angry, Sora said speechlessly.
"Ahem… Shizuka, where's Grandpa? Where did Grandpa go? I haven't seen him at all."
Feeling that he couldn't let them dwell on this topic any longer, Sora coughed twice and quickly changed the subject.
Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Kusanagi Ichirou since he came home, and Sora felt a little strange. Could it be that the old man had left Shizuka alone at home again to have tea and chat with his "female friends"?!
"Hmph, as for Grandpa, he left on the third day after Onii-chan left, saying he was going to complete his unfinished business or something, and perhaps he won't come back in this lifetime!"
With an expression of deep resentment and extreme anger, Shizuka-chan replied fiercely.
Kusanagi Ichirou was an ethnologist, and when he was young, he often traveled around the world, occasionally taking young Shizuka-chan with him.
Speaking of which, it's truly incredible that Shizuka-chan could grow up smoothly. Not only did she have a monstrous older brother, but she also had a "tough" grandfather!
Well, for Sora, these things didn't matter. On the contrary, when he heard that the old man had left, he felt a sense of quiet relief.
It's quite speechless to think that he helped the old man deliver a stone tablet to his friend Lucretia Zola, but ended up doing something to her! Although he didn't believe that unscrupulous witch would really tell anyone, Sora himself always felt a sense of guilt.
Now it's good, at least for the time being, he doesn't have to face that annoying awkwardness, sweat…
"Oh, I see. There's nothing to worry about with Grandpa. Shizuka, don't be angry, I…"
Just as Sora was about to comfort Shizuka-chan a little, his phone suddenly rang. When he saw the caller ID, Sora's entire face turned black.
"Um, I'm going to take a call. You guys chat first."
Saying this to the three girls with a guilty conscience, Sora ran away with his phone as if escaping. Although the three girls were a little suspicious of Sora's abnormal reaction, they didn't say much.
"Wuwuwu… Little Demon King brother, you heartless wretch, are you going to wipe your mouth and pretend you don't know me after you've had your fill? You actually went home without even saying goodbye, and you even brought that little fox Erica home, but you left me here alone. How cruel you are!"
Alright, whose voice could this charming, seductive, yet grating voice be if not a certain unscrupulous witch?!!
"Great Witch, keep your voice down!"
Hiding in his room and covering the phone, afraid of being heard by Shizuka and Erica outside, Sora replied to a certain unscrupulous witch on the other side of the earth, exasperated.
"Hmph hmph, are you afraid of others knowing what you've done? You tell me to keep my voice down, but I won't. You heartless wretch! You irresponsible person! You…"
His eye twitched. Sora knew this woman was doing it on purpose! Did she really think she was a rebellious girl of seventeen or eighteen?!
Well, to be honest, in some ways, this witch was even more excessive than a rebellious young girl…
"Damn witch, speak, what do you want!"
Having more or less figured out the nature of that unscrupulous witch, Sora's mouth twitched, and he said with a speechless expression.
"Hehe, Little Demon King, you are Lord Demon King, what can I do to you? It's just my bad luck, I'm destined to be bullied by you…"
Forcing himself to resist the urge to hang up the phone, listening to the unscrupulous witch's words full of resentment and sourness, Sora knew she must have something else to say. As expected, after criticizing him for a long time, the unscrupulous witch finally stated her purpose:
"Well, since Little Demon King brother, you yourself are asking for it, then I'll make a small request!"
"Hmm, sister has been suffering from insomnia these past few days. You have to call me every day to coax me to sleep, and by the way, report everything you've done each day to your sister."
Listening to the unscrupulous witch's obvious nonsense, although they were half a world apart, Sora was sure she had a cunning, mischievous smile on her face at this moment!
"You, are you checking the water meter? Once a month!"
Feeling that he had really brought trouble upon himself by provoking this witch, Sora replied through gritted teeth.
"Ara ara, Little Demon King, you are really heartless, once every two days!"
"No, it's too frequent, Erica and the others will find out, once every half a month!"
"Too long, too long, once every three days!"
…
After a round of bargaining, the two finally reached a final agreement, once a week.
Although he didn't understand why this damn witch was so persistent with him, Sora instinctively felt that she didn't have any ill intentions towards him. Plus, he had indeed "eaten" her, so Sora had no choice but to let her have her way.
Sora suddenly missed himself in that strange state. At that time, he had that damn witch completely under his thumb! If he told her to go east, she went east; if he told her to go west, she went west;
Cough cough, well, actually, Sora quite admired himself in that state. At least, he would never do those things now!
"Little Demon King brother, before we meet next time, eat that little fox Erica too. This is a mission, if you can't complete it…"
Slap! Before Zola could finish speaking, Sora directly hung up the phone.
This woman, she was truly beyond saving!!!
Calming himself down and trying hard not to show any abnormality, Sora walked out of his room.
"Uh, what's going on…"
Looking at Shizuka, Erica, and Arianna in the living room, laughing and chatting together, Sora's eye twitched.
That girl Shizuka, she was so wary and resistant towards Erica before, how did their relationship become so good after he was only gone for such a short time?
His gaze swept around, and seeing the pile of beautiful and expensive dresses and jewelry next to Shizuka-chan, Sora covered his forehead and sighed deeply.
As expected of Erica, she had already captured that stubborn girl Shizuka with sugar-coated bullets so quickly…
