Chapter 26: Tomoe and Ayaka ①
I have visited Yuuta-sama to inform him of his rise in rank. Moreover, I also received his verbal promise that he would be visiting his classroom on the next School Day.
Oh my, so even an incompetent dunce like you is capable of at least that much, huh?
Ayaka gave a report about Yuuta to her superior. However, right now she wasnt talking to the chief of the Second Male Supervision Section where the ordinary citizens worked, but the director of the Male Administration Departnt.
Thank you for your efforts. By the way, there has been a change in appointnts that concerns you. Starting in April, you will be removed from Yuuta-samas case and take charge of Renji-sama, a first-year at junior highschool.
I understand, replied Ayaka indifferently without showing a single change on her face as she had already predicted this developnt to occur.
Good grief, if only you had properly briefed Yuuta-sama in regards to the Sperm Donation Service, he would be a D-Rank by now.
Please forgive my inadequacies.
It was impossible to decide a mans male ranking with just the authority of the Male Supervision Departnt. But because rearing many outstanding n would count as an accomplishnt of the Male Supervision Departnt, its director wished for as many n to rise in rank as possible.
However, the decision of a mans male ranking was also influenced by the wills of the cabinet office and other governntal offices, so it wasnt possible for the Male Supervision Departnt to readily raise Yuutas rank to D just for the reason of him working hard.
Tomoe-san of Section One is going to beco Yuuta-samas new case worker.
As expected, Ayaka thought, seeing how the information she had heard beforehand proved to be correct.
Please hand over the case properly.
Yes, Maam! I will do my utmost!
Youre dismissed.
Please excuse !
After she left the room of the Male Supervision Departnts director and ca back to her own desk, her replacent was already waiting for her. Tomoe of Section One.
Nice to et you, Tomoe-san.
The sa to you, Ayaka-san. Umm, about the matter in question
Ayaka giggled shortly, Dont worry about it. Want to have a talk over coffee?
Okay.
As usual, shes a beauty who draws the eyes of those around her, Ayaka thought.
Tomoe of the First Male Supervision Section had an appearance that was rare in Nihon. Her father didnt hail from Nihon, but Sachar, a kingdom located on the continent with both countries being separated by the ocean.
Her shiny blond hair was cut into a dium, wavy bob. She possessed almost transparent, white skin, and two blue eyes that seed to suck in anyone who looked into them. All in all, she had the face of a beauty, and if her ears were tapered on top of all this, she would have likely been misunderstood as one of those elves who appeared in the myths of the Old World.
She was 28 years old, possessed a height of 170 cm, and her three sizes were 100 (J)
60
90. A career woman at the pri of her life.
Even though Ayaka didnt think she was losing out to her four years younger counterpart when it ca to her figure, she didnt feel like she could win in regards to skin beauty. With her height of 164 cm and her three sizes being 102 (K)
60
91, Ayakas figure was nothing to scoff at either though.
The two moved to the cafe inside the departnts building. After ordering their coffees, they sat down at a table.
Earlier the director inford
of the change in appointnts. Please take care of Yuuta-sama, starting with April.
Im truly sorry, Ayaka-san. All of this is because of .
Nevermind it. After all, I had already heard so rumors. I can also understand your wish of wanting to return to being Yuuta-samas case worker. I will properly hand the case over, so you dont need to worry.
Thank you kindly. Umm, theres one thing I would like to ask you no matter what.
What is it?
Ayaka-san, how were you able to cure Yuuta-samas mind and get him back up on his feet?
Im sure she must have her doubts.
After the incident during his first Service as first-year, Yuuta had closed off his heart. Although he felt grateful for Tomoes devoted support, he never attempted to resu his Service Activities.
And then, all of a sudden, the sa guy overca his past trauma, changed his attitude, and started to actively perform Services. Ayaka could easily guess that the question of what had happened here had to occupy Tomoes mind.
Ayaka planned to inform Tomoe about Yuutas current state, but there were many things she couldnt divulge, such as the organization or the implantation of the personality of an Old Worlds man. As such, shed bring Tomoe up to date while keeping those things secret.
Do you know about Yuuta-sama catching a high fever right at the start of the New Year?
Yes, I do.
So she had been going after Yuuta-samas reports even after being removed from the post as his case worker, huh? Ayaka thought in admiration.
At that ti, Yuuta-sama called
over to rely on , most likely because he felt helpless.
I-I see.
Why is Tomoe looking so sad?
Ayaka almost laughed out when she saw the other woman pull a face which seed to demand that Yuuta should have relied on her and not Ayaka. It made Ayaka consider Tomoe to be a rather cute woman.
I had the privilege to nurse Yuuta-sama over several days, and it looks like Yuuta-sama had all sorts of thoughts about his own future during that period.
His own future
Once he reflected on his current situation in light of his imminent graduation at school, he apparently beca quite anxious. As such, I provided him with so loose advice while nursing him, but after fully recovering, Yuuta-sama suddenly beca all motivated, and started his activity drive which has been going on until now.
I seeYuuta-sama properly considered his own future.
Ayaka felt relieved after she saw on Tomoes face that the younger woman could apparently co to terms with that explanation, albeit not fully. She decided to contact Yuuta later since itd be bad if they didnt get their stories straight in advance.
Ayaka-san, do you thinkYuuta-sama will accept ?
The Male Supervision Departnt had decided that Tomoe would beco Yuutas case worker from April onwards, but it was another question what Yuuta himself was thinking about this assignnt. Under normal circumstances, a change in case workers would be coordinated with the affected man in advance, and the change would go through based on the mans opinion, seeing how important a matter it was for him.
Because Tomoe, a mber of Section One, was requesting to take over Yuutas case from a Section Two mber, the upper managent had decided on the change within the departnt. However, if Yuuta were to strongly oppose that reassignnt afterwards, it was more than possible that Ayaka would actually remain his case worker.
Seeing her younger colleague uneasy like that, Ayaka answered with a smile, It will be fine. You dont need to worry. Id like you to keep this a secret, but actually I have already told Yuuta-sama about you since I heard that you wanted to return to being his case worker.
Really!?
Yes. Yuuta-sama didnt show the slightest hint of disliking the idea. Im sure he will accept you without any hesitation.
T-Thank you so much!
Tomoe seed so moved that she looked as though shed start crying right here and now.
She had been terribly regretting her own mistake, asking herself every day why she forgot to briefly inform Yuuta to take a high familys request as his first Service back then.
Im going to et with Yuuta-sama soon, so I will ntion your matter at that ti. If I get his permission, I will let you et him right away. Oh right, how about we go together to Yuuta-samas graduation ceremony?
Eh!? T-Thats okay with you?
Of course. Tomoe-san, you also were Yuuta-samas case worker supporting him during his junior highschool ti. You have all the right to participate in the graduation ceremony.
Thank you very much! For you to be so niceto a person like *sniff*
What an unusual person.
Section One consisted of high won. anwhile, all the common won had been placed in Section Two. Naturally, many in Section One looked down on Section Two. As such, they wouldnt readily express their gratitude like Tomoe was doing right now, even if they received sothing from soone who was older than them.
Hence, Tomoe had parts that were atypical for high won despite belonging to the high won of Section One.
Is it the influence of her father? No, Ive heard that hes a man of the Sachar Kingdom, so they shouldnt have lived together. In that case, it must co from her mother. If I rember correctlyTomoe-sans mother should belong to a family lineage affiliated to the Eternal Yoshiwara. So, I guess its the influence of the present matriarch of the Yoshiwaras.
The present Yoshiwara matriarch was famous among high won and ordinary citizens alike. Her na was Nanase Kagura.
Nanase, who received the surna Kagura by marrying her husband, was widely admired by the won of this country for having married her current husband after a passionate romance. Hence, hers was a love marriage. Sothing that was rare among high families, let alone Eternals. Her love affair, which was passed down among the won almost like a legend, went so far in popularity that quite a few romantic stories were written with Nanase as a referential point.
Its rumored that many of the high families, which are close to the Eternal Yoshiwara, possess a strong yearning for romantic love to begin with. Itd clearly explain why Tomoe-sans mother married a man of the foreign Sachar Kingdom, too.
Yuuta-sama will attend his classroom during the next School Day.
Oh my, what wonderful news!
Indeed. I plan to et with him afterwards, so I will update you on the state of things later on.
Thank you!
Due to Tomoe smiling a lot more cheerfully now, compared to the ti when they entered the cafe, even Ayaka, who usually smiled insincerely when dealing with high won, ended up getting lured into revealing a genuine smile.
