I was really worried, you know?」
「I’m sorry.」
I said that to Touka-chan, who looked like she was about to cry. While I had said my apology at the start, it made feel like I had once again done sothing to apologize for.
Since it may have been my first ti to sleep for a whole day, actually, I myself was surprised.
「But, I’m envious of Rin-neesama who can see Suku-neesama sleeping.」
「.....? What do you an?」
「Are you not aware of it? Suku-neesama, whenever the people around you are still awake, you absolutely won’t sleep, you know? Though, Rin-neesama said that wasn’t the case when you were young.」
At Touka-chan’s words, I unintentionally tilted my head.
「In the past, you did a strangling technique on Ren-niisama when he went to wake you up, right?」
「Hmm, I don’t rember any of that.」
「So since you were sleeping you didn’t really rember it, huh......It seed at that ti all you could do was still protect yourself while sleeping. But before I knew it, other than Rin-neesama, no one else could see Suku-neesmaa’s sleeping face.....」
Hmm, certainly, other than Rin-chan, it had been a long ti since I could rember defenselessly sleeping before soone else.
Well, in the first place, I hadn’t been around anyone in the past years after all.
By the way, the person that Touka-chan called Ren-niisama was actually the na of Rin-chan’s actual brother. His full na was Takajou Renya-san(恋夜).
Even Rin-chan said that he had an「appearance pure build.」He was a really cool-looking brother. (9: though barely appeared or still hasn’t appeared? either way reading ahead, I don’t rember him appearing)
And with that influential power, ever since his youth, if he just walked around here and there, before you knew it a crowd would have already ford. So to avoid trouble, he had lived most of his life disguising himself.
By the way, appearance -pure build- was not a taphor. Aside from his looks, the rest of his specs were that of a disappointnt.
It was just that, he was really kind. His heart was open wide, sothing like that. He even had the calst personality out of Rin-chan’s siblings.
If he lived normally, it felt like he would easily get caught up with frauds and scams, but regarding that, as expected of the Takajou family, they had him perfectly protected.
Right now, he was totally absorbed in the acting business. He was a famous person, the kind that you could see on TV’s on the street corners.
By the way, Ren-san was the second son. The eldest son was Takajou Shiran-san(紫蘭), who Rin-chan said had「all stats max,」a superhuman.
That person was a ridiculously talented person. In reality, he was a dreadful person who had schedules where even the seconds were being included.
Though I hadn’t t the two of them in about ten years. The both of them are quite a bit older than .
「I wonder if Ron-san is doing fine?」
「Ron-neesama is....I don’t know too much, either. Isn’t she sowhere around the world randomly traveling around?」
Including Rin-chan, for the three of us, that person was soone we could call our older sister. The Ron-san that was ntioned right now was Takajou Ronri (龍麗).
Touka-chan was a bit different, she was the daughter of Rin-chan’s father’s younger sister. In relation to Rin-chan, she was a cousin.
That person had a free-spirited personality. Just as you’ve thought that she suddenly disappeared, before you know it she either ca back with a huge amount of money or a rare animal. She was quite the mysterious person.
That person also, I think I t her just before I was about to live alone. Touka-chan and Saku-chan, thanks to eting people like them who I didn’t think I’d et, nostalgic mories ca to the surface.
I thought of eting up with her again for such a long ti. But I’m with Rin-chan right now, so I would probably et her one day.
The Takajou family–parents, siblings, and relatives–was a family that doted on Rin-chan.
「So, today we’re going to Shuuya’s place, right?」
「That’s right, it’s an invitation from the Round Table. Since I already contacted them, let guide you to their clan house.」
「That helps-.....N? Touka-chan, won’t you get lost? Are you gonna be alright?」
「I-It’s alright!」
「I’ve gotten quite a bit worried...」
When I rembered Touka-chan’s absolute lack of a sense of direction and got anxious as I asked about it, her eyes avoided a little.
And just like that, while being quite anxious, we went toward the clan house of the《Knights of the Round Table》.
☆
「Hohou, so thou are Sukuna, ain’t ya?」
「Ah, yeah.」
Before the little beastfolk girl who was folding her arms, I was kinda, like, having a problem reacting.
「I, Arthur, am the leader of the clan《Knights of the Round Table》. Nice to et ya!」
「I’m Sukuna. I see, so you’re the leader.」
Looking only at her height, she looked completely like a grade-schooler. In the worst case, her body might have been smaller, although she seed to be the leader of this clan.
While being quite surprised, for now, I tried going with the practice of acting more formal toward higher-ups, and then the person before gave a questioning face.
「Away with the formalities. You’re the sa age as Rinne, right? Then, I am way younger than ya! Gahahaha!」
「Then let do so, A-chan.」
「A-chan!?」
It seed that she was surprised, but I wonder what she was surprised about?
However, with this girl apparently being way younger than , it seed she might actually be a little girl like how she looked.
Since this was not a ga where it was gory or bloody, so it had a rather low target age rating.
Well, even if she wasn’t as young as she looked because of her age, you could set the avatar freely, so.
「Now, now, ’tis fine. I shall specially grant you permission.」
「.....? Thanks?」
「Ahem. However, what was it, Sukuna? You really don’t have any intimidating air. Sothing like a -strong person’s aura-, sothing like that, even though I can definitely sense those kinds of things.」
「Aura....」
Was it because my equipnt was made out of cloth? I an, Aria’s attire was a rust-colored kimono and looked unexpectedly chic, after all.
Or was it because I wasn’t that tall? It wasn’t like I was troubled even with a shorter height, but I’m sure that big people had so kind of pressure too.
Even though if I was told to have such an intimidating air I wouldn’t be very happy, being told I had no intimidating air, I didn’t know what to say about that.
「Isn’t the Round Table’s strongest, Arthur-san, that has the least intimidating air, huh?」
「Touka-jou! if you say that then it’s just the end! And also, give so of your height!」
「I can’t, it’s my identity after all」
Lining up A-chan who looked around 140 cm and Touka-chan who looked around 190 cm, the disbalance was too much and it overwheld .
Their height difference sure was severe. Although, in the first place, there weren’t even that many guys that were taller than Touka-chan, so the one that was the outlier was Touka-chan after all.
「You two sure do get along.」
「After all, if you put Touka-jou in your party, there wouldn’t be any mistakes in support! Before I ca to Fias, I hired her once for a while.」
「She is a benefactor that properly taught how to look at maps.」
「I-I see?」
I knew what A-chan was saying. After all, I’d been in Touka-chan’s hands during that Armored Mount Gorilla battle.
But still, there was sothing that was sowhat wrong about what Touka-chan was saying...was it that recently, Touka-chan beca capable of looking at maps?
「Fufun, I know what you are thinking about, like, I can grasp the idea. You see, and Touka are『RL friends.』Sa as your relation with Rinne.」
「Ah, I see. So the part about you properly teaching her how to look at maps was sothing far from the past?」
「Umu. Our eting goes back to six years ago...」
「Ah, I’d like to refrain on that.」
「Wut!? My masterpiece of an epic tale that would bring you to tears was!?」
「By the way, Arthur-san is two years younger than .」
「Ah, then she really is quite younger.」
「You guys are unexpectedly the sa, with how you don’t listen.....」
Was it because Touka-chan and I were being a bit an? A-chan reacted like she was taken aback for a bit, but for so reason, Touka-chan was happy.
Was it because rather than being teasing, it was sothing related to how close they were?
It might have been one of the things they joked around about.
I didn’t really know why Touka-chan was happy, but since she looked so happy, I should stop spoiling the fun.
「Let’s stop standing around talking here. Since you have visited my clan, I shall guide you inside our ho.」
「By the way, streaming is...?」
「It’s fine, since there are also strears among our clan mbers. And in the first place, we don’t have anything to hide, so do as you please.」
「Okay then, let’s stream!」
Getting permission from A-chan, I operated the nu card to start the stream and then we went on to take a step toward the ho of the Round Tables.

Author notes:
Nana basically adds chan male or female. Towards older people she calls them -san a lot.
On the other hand, Kohaku and Shuten being called without honorifics is actually quite a rare case.
