Chapter 318
Rewards
““…………””
Both Sabine-chan and I were silently staring at each other.
And Sabine-chan is quite in a bad mood.
……Or I guess, rather than the disappointment and anger that her wish didn’t go through, it felt like sadness that she wasn’t able to bind me here, to her place…
So that I would come to her room regularly. I can’t leave without her permission. Maybe that’s the kind of ‘binding’ she was aiming for, and that’s why she made that request…
Ah~, let’s break this silence~~!!
“…Anyway, anything other than regular replenishment of food is no good! And it will only last for 2-3 months!
Besides, I’ll accept one more thing, so think about something that’s not dangerous, doesn’t burden me, and isn’t too unreasonable.” (Mitsuha)
“Mu~……” (Sabine)
Sabine-chan doesn’t seem too convinced, but I can’t accept too much demand to compensate for just a few days of all-night work.
If I have to ask for something again, it will escalate like power inflation.
Eventually, I may be asked to prepare her own private room at the General Trade Mitsuha and my territorial mansion, or to prepare a commuter pass for “Royal Palace ~ Japanese residence (Indefinitely)” meaning, I will pick her up and drop her off at the Japanese residence at any time.
…What does a “commuter pass” even mean when the term is indefinite?…
In another world with Mitsuha, a mysterious girl who never ages, who sets out on a journey and obtains a strange flat chested body・・・・・Shut up!
Who the hell calls it a “strange body”? Do I have a “mechanical body” or something?!
Ha~a ha~a ha~a……
Oh, well, anyway, Sabine-chan is a good girl, but when it comes to me, she takes two steps forward while I take one step back……
Colette-chan, on the other hand, has none of that.
It’s because of her status that’s why she can’t afford it. Sabine-chan is a princess while Colette-chan is a commoner and my vassal.
……Yes, because Colette-chan has the confidence, or rather the certainty, that if she were to leave her place, she would definitely be taken by me.
Sabine-chan, on the other hand, would think, “In that case, I’ll be left behind”, so she only has this matter and doesn’t have any leeway.
…That’s the case and there’s nothing I can do about it.
As expected, kidnapping the princess of a kingdom would be impossible even for me.
Except when this country is in turmoil due to an invasion from another country or a coup d’etat and the royal family is all killed, either the king would ask Sabine-chan to go into exile, or Sabine-chan decides to go into exile of her own volition…
Well, Sabine-chan is a smart and respectable princess who’s aware of her position as royalty.
Even if I am gone and she loses all the benefits of the earth’s civilization, like the solar power systems and appliances, she will still be able to do just fine.
It shouldn’t matter, because she’ll just go back to the way she was before she met me…
“Ugh!” (Mitsuha)
What’s wrong with you?!
Sabine-chan suddenly attacked me!
……Teary eyes?
Ah, could it be…
“…Did I think out loud?” (Mitsuha)
Aah, she won’t stop punching me…
Stop it!
For me, whose chest armor is thin, her attacks are effective!!
=====
…Somehow, I managed to escape.
But I’m afraid the next time we meet…
Okay, next time I meet with Sabine-chan, I’ll bring Colette-chan with me!
With Colette-chan, Sabine-chan, who wants to act like a big sister, would act calmly. Even if she has to put up with it a lot.
The same can be said when Prince Luchen is present, but as expected, I cannot ask Prince Luchen to be present during that kind of conversation.
As for her own rewards, Colette-chan will probably save them.
To be used one day, when the time is right.
And it’s definitely not related to something luxurious.
Perhaps it’s about time for Colette-chan to use the reward points she has accumulated…
…It’s a scary thought…

“How about creating a juvenile group in the Society, Mitsuha-sama?” (Serumia)
“Eh?” (Mitsuha)
At the Society tea party, one of the members, Serumia-chan, the second daughter of the Countess Dalatu family, made such a comment. (セルミア)
“Etto, a juvenile group?…” (Mitsuha)
“Yes, we will gather noble girls who are too young to normally join the Society and who don’t know the world’s impurities, guide them as our subordinate organization, and teach them to be faithful to the Goddess and loyal to our Society, as if we were carving with a carving knife into their still pure white hearts…” (Serumia)
“Details!!” (Mitsuha)
Yeah, Serumia-chan, she had a pretty face and an evil mind…
According to Sermia-chan, if the society calls out for invitations now, flocks of young girls will fly in not only from the marquises but also from the dukes and royalty.
…With parents’ approval, of course.
Therefore, instead of the main Society, which is already full to capacity with members of a certain age, why not create an organization under it that accepts younger children, that is, those who are not in the Society’s target group?
The innocent, white canvas-like young girls, who’re not yet covered with the grime of the world.
That’s right, brainwashing those little girls… under our control… Petit Sur… Anyway, teach them and guide them!!
“…Mitsuha-san, aren’t you somehow wrapped in your own desires and worldly desires?” (Michelle)
Micchan is looking at me judgingly, or rather in amazement, but I don’t care about that!
“Serumia-sama, you’ve earned achievement points!” (Mitsuha)
“Oh! Then let’s come up with a plan and boil it down further!” (Serumia)
=====
It was then decided that the young group would be called “Society Juvenile Group”, commonly known as simply “Juvenile Group”.
The reason for this was that the majority of the participants felt that since everyone adored the name “Society”, any other name would be discarded.
The target age range is from 6 to 12 years old.
They’ll graduate the day before their 13th birthday.
Yes, the juvenile group is not an escalator system, where everyone can automatically join the Society as they grow up.
Only a select few would be admitted to the Society upon graduation.
The others, as alumni of the juvenile group, remain registered as supporting members of the Society and receive information from the Society and preferential treatment from Viscount Yamano and Refilia Trade.
I’m not going to cut everyone off and throw them away.
If I do that, there’s a possibility that the Society will garner hate.
Therefore, only a few exceptions would be allowed into the Society and it’s normal for the rest to graduate.
And we emphasized that they’ll get enough benefits after graduation and that they’re all friends.
The tea party for the juvenile group will be held on a separate day from the Society and will be taught and led by Society members on a rotating basis, or by a few who like children and wish to attend.
…Nice…
Dreams keep on expanding, drumrolls!!
“Mitsuha-san, you plan to attend every time, don’t you?” (Michelle)
Micchan seems like she’s saying something, but I don’t care about that!
Let’s have the little ones in the juvenile group wear their nekomimi headbands to tea parties!
Also, matching clothes… Ah, a bath in a vinyl pool too!
Should I buy the school swimsuits at a store dedicated to elementary schools? If the quantity is large, I may have to place an order early.
Ku fu…
Ku fu fufufu…….
“……-san, Mitsuha-san!
……No good, she can’t hear me at all……” (Michelle)
=====
Author’s Note:
Understandably, Mitsuha wanted a younger brother or sister, as she is the youngest child.
……Well, at least that’s what she said before. However, she already has Colette-chan, Sabine-chan, and Beatrice-chan….
