Chapter 93: A War Exclusive to Daughters
"There's someone I haven't seen before. Can Aragaki-nii introduce me?"
Yukinoshita Ayame's gaze immediately focused on Shiina Kaede. Looking at this Little Girl who was about the same age as her, she sensed an unusual vibe.
"Tch~"
Seeing Yukinoshita Ayame acting so friendly with her father, Shiina Kaede also felt something was wrong. Moreover, with Moeha's existence already known to her, she had no reason to deny the possibility that other Children might have traveled back from the future just like her.
"You mean Kaede? Her sister is a friend of mine. Since her sister invited me to visit their house this afternoon, Kaede came over to visit and inform me about it."
Aragaki Takiya patiently answered Yukinoshita Ayame's question, but he was supplemented by Shiina Kaede from the side.
"That's wrong. Not only are my sister and Aragaki-nii friends, but I am also Aragaki-nii's good friend, right?~"
Shiina Kaede stood up with her hands on her hips and said. As she spoke, she gave Yukinoshita Ayame a triumphant look.
"..."
Yukinoshita Ayame didn't say anything, but she felt a sense of displeasure in her heart. Her genes were also inscribed with the possessiveness unique to the Yukinoshita Family. Moreover, in the previous world, her father only loved her, but in this world, there were so many other Children, which made her very unhappy.
Of course, she wouldn't blame her father. After all, her father had always been good to her. So, the problem must lie with these two Little fellows in front of her.
"Alright, you three get to know each other first. I've prepared snacks and juice on the table. Now I'm going to do my part-time job in the Bedroom. If anything comes up, you can just call me..."
Aragaki Takiya spoke point by point, and Yukinoshita Ayame was the one listening most attentively. After all, in the previous world, the person she spent the most time with was the man before her, so Yukinoshita Ayame was basically obedient to everything he said.
"No problem, Aragaki-nii. I will arrange everything."
Compared to Yukinoshita Ayame's obedience, Shiina Kaede acted more like a little adult. Her upbringing was different. In her world, although her father was often so busy his feet barely touched the ground, he would always find time to accompany her and her mother.
Under the influence of the future Shiina Mahiru, Shiina Kaede had a temperament different from ordinary Children. She was observant and very smart, but the one thing that remained unchanged was that she also loved her father and mother very much.
"Mm, okay. Moeha, you play with Kaede and Ayane first. I'm going to start working now."
After receiving Shiina Kaede's assurance, Aragaki Takiya patted Aragaki Moeha's little head. After all, she was the first daughter he had encountered, so he always held a special place for Aragaki Moeha in his heart. Furthermore, Aragaki Moeha's situation was different from Shiina Kaede's; she needed his extra care more.
"Mm, don't worry, brother. I won't cause any trouble."
Looking at the person she was so familiar with, Aragaki Moeha actually wanted to stay with him more. However, she was an obedient child and knew her father had other things to attend to. She couldn't help much, but she could ensure she wouldn't get in the way.
Shortly after, Aragaki Takiya returned to the Bedroom to start his translation work. He now felt an increasingly familiar sensation when looking at those Japan characters, so he had been deliberately maintaining this level of work intensity during this period.
Meanwhile, the three Little fellows in the Living Room sat down together.
Although they remained quiet in the Living Room, an ordinary person could feel an indescribable atmosphere, especially... coming from those two Little Girls in the Living Room.
"Want to play games?"
Shiina Kaede waved the game controller in her hand, a trace of disdain flashing in her eyes.
"Play games?"
Hearing Shiina Kaede's words, Yukinoshita Ayame also turned her gaze to the game controller in her hand, and a flicker of interest subsequently flashed in her eyes.
Don't think that just because Yukinoshita Ayame had good grades, she never touched games.
In fact, she was a child with strong learning abilities, and she often played games with her father. Therefore, in this regard, she could definitely be considered an elite player.
"No problem. But let's get this straight, I'm very good. Don't cry when you lose."
???
Yukinoshita Ayame's words made Shiina Kaede's mouth twitch. Was she joking? Even Moeha, who played games frequently, only had a fifty-fifty win rate against her. This child who looked about the same age as her was actually so arrogant.
Shiina Kaede felt she needed to show off her gaming talent.
"Um, I want to play too."
Aragaki Moeha spoke up weakly from the side.
As Aragaki Moeha's voice fell, the tense atmosphere that had been at daggers drawn suddenly vanished.
Right, they had almost forgotten there was another child here.
"Then, let's play this three-player stage-clearing game. This game also has scores, so we can settle the score in here."
Shiina Kaede picked up a game cartridge box and said.
"No problem. No matter what game it is, I won't lose."
Yukinoshita Ayame said confidently. After all, her father was in the Bedroom nearby, and she was her father's most excellent daughter. How could she lose to the person in front of her... Meanwhile, in the Bedroom, Aragaki Takiya was doing translations at his computer. He was unaware of the situation in the Living Room and was focused solely on completing the task at hand.
Vibrate~
In the quiet environment, the vibration of a phone suddenly came through. This sudden noise made Aragaki Takiya's hand shake, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he calmly picked up the phone to look at the message.
"Are you busy, Aragaki?"
This was a message from Miss Kato.
"I'm not busy. What's up?"
After clicking send, Aragaki Takiya's phone vibrated again in a short while. Unlike the brief vibration of a text message, the vibration this time was something Aragaki Takiya had never felt before.
Kato Megumi had directly placed a video call.
Seeing the prompt on his phone, Aragaki Takiya hardly hesitated and clicked to answer.
Beep~
With a notification sound, Kato Megumi's beautiful face immediately appeared on the phone screen.
"Sorry for the intrusion, Aragaki."
Miss Kato's gentle voice came from the phone.
"Well, I wouldn't call it an intrusion. I'm free anyway. But why did you think of video calling me, Kato?"
Looking at the girl on the screen, Aragaki Takiya asked curiously.
