-123- If I say yes, what would you do?

In reality, Rozen was also quite surprised.

"The Yaya who is so conceited and biased against humans would actually come to a human-inhabited city for leisurely strolls. Anyone would find that incredible."

Rozen didn't give Irori a chance to argue or take sides, and straightforwardly stated his thoughts.

"But according to the famil... according to the kind-hearted dogs, that troublesome doll is indeed here."

Although they didn't know why Yaya came here, her presence here shouldn't be fake.

Rozen was certain of that.

Feeling Rozen's words were true, Irori didn't feel reassured; instead, she grew anxious.

"What... what should we do? Yaya has never been to such densely populated places, she doesn't know anything. If some ill-intentioned, dirty man deceives her and takes her to an inappropriate place, then I'll definitely..."

As she spoke, a terrifying cold air emanated from Irori, causing ice crystals to form on the ground and in the air, startling the passersby nearby.

Naturally, Rozen and Komurasaki were also taken aback.

"Irori Onee-sama!"

Komurasaki hurriedly held onto Irori.

"Calm down!"

Rozen also gave Irori a smack on the head, causing her to cry out in pain. The cold air emanating from her disappeared instantly.

If Irori were to recklessly use magic here, it would surely expose her as an automaton doll and draw unwanted attention, potentially leading to big trouble.

Usually, Irori would definitely understand this, and she would never do something this foolish. However, when it came to matters involving her sister, the usually reliable older sister would lose all self-control in an instant and become an idiot, which was truly exasperating.

"Anyway, let's find Yaya first."

Rozen made a decisive decision.

"If we stay here, we're bound to attract attention sooner or later."

After all, why wouldn't Irori and Komurasaki, who were breathtakingly beautiful, attract attention?

Even without revealing the identity of the automaton dolls, their stunning appearances alone would undoubtedly draw many gazes.

"From that perspective, Irori's concerns are not entirely unfounded."

If Yaya were wandering around in such a densely populated area, her appearance might attract the attention of unscrupulous individuals.

Therefore, Rozen believed it was better to find Yaya sooner rather than later and ensure her safety.

"Woof!"

A wild dog barked at Rozen and ran ahead.

"This way!"

Rozen immediately grabbed both Irori and Komurasaki by the hand and, before they could react, ran ahead, bathing in the astonished and envious gazes of the pedestrians around them.

...

Guided by the inconspicuous familiars, eventually, Rozen's group smoothly located Yaya.

Moreover, it was in an unexpected place.

"Th-that's...!?"

Irori stood there, seemingly struck by an immense shock.

"This... this can't be, right?"

Komurasaki was equally stunned.

Not to mention Irori and Komurasaki, even Rozen was left dumbfounded.

Before them, in the direction indicated by the dogs, was a building.

It was adorned with festive decorations and drenched in exaggerated red hues. Women dressed provocatively stood at the entrance, attracting the attention of passersby. These women wore heavy makeup and garish attire and were pulling young, strong-looking men around the streets.

Rozen certainly recognized that kind of establishment.

"T-that's... a b-br-..."

Komurasaki's face turned bright red, and she tried to articulate the identity of the building, but her shyness got the better of her, and she couldn't get the words out.

Irori, recovering from the initial shock, began to murmur.

"Yaya...is in a place like that...?"

Irori, like a malfunctioning automaton, turned her head with a creaking sound, seeking Rozen's final confirmation.

Her eyes, devoid of any expression as if she had lost all emotions, made Rozen start to feel uneasy.

"That... um..." Rozen nervously asked, "If I say yes, what would you do?"

"Yes... yes... yes..." Irori repeated the word like a broken doll.

Immediately after, Irori's face devoid of emotion issued a command.

"Freeze."

With that command, all of Irori's magical power exploded out of her.

"Stop! Irori Onee-sama!"

Komurasaki immediately rushed forward and hugged Irori.

"I knew it!"

Rozen conjured several barriers of "Magic Defense" around Irori, preventing the leakage of cold air and stopping Irori's magic from exploding.

"Let go of me! Let go of me! Yaya has been defiled! By those dirty men...! I'll bury all this injustice for Yaya! I'll restore her purity!"

Irori struggled relentlessly, tears welling in her eyes, shouting like this.

"Purity my foot!"

Rozen once again delivered a slap to Irori's head, making her cry out in pain for the second time.

However, this time, Irori didn't seem to be willing to compromise.

Just as things were about to become irreparable, sharp-eyed Komurasaki suddenly noticed.

"Irori Onee-sama! Look over there! It's Yaya, Yaya!"

Komurasaki's call stopped Irori's struggling, and Rozen, who was considering whether to just knock Irori unconscious, also halted, looking ahead.

There, wearing an exquisite black silk kimono, Yaya emerged from the building.

In her hands, she was holding two intoxicated men.

"Let... let go of me!"

"Do... do you know who I am? How dare you treat me like this!"

The two men struggled desperately, yelling at Yaya.

However, Yaya paid them no attention. She tossed the two men onto the street and looked down at them with eyes full of disdain and contempt.

"Truly, these are men who don't even deserve the term 'despicable.' Not only did they waste Yaya's energy, they also touched her. Yaya will have to wash her hands later; otherwise, I won't dare to use them to eat dinner."

As always, Yaya's tone and attitude were both nasty and vicious, making it clear how much she detested the two men before her.

"Yaya doesn't have time to waste on the likes of you. Leave quickly, or Yaya won't be holding back."

Saying that, Yaya raised her hand and approached the two men menacingly.

"Eek!"

"Remember... remember this!"

The two men quickly scrambled away.

Yaya, as if she didn't want to look at them anymore, turned away.

"Indeed, human men are truly despicable."

Making such a conclusion, Yaya turned around but was met with three people.

"You...?"

Yaya froze.

"Yaya!"

"Sister!"

Irori and Komurasaki rushed forward and embraced her.

Watching this scene, Rozen couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Thank the Heavens that it didn't turn into a disaster..."

Next time, he absolutely wouldn't take on such a task.

Absolutely.
