Chapter 90: Shameless Display of Affection in Front of Komachi

[🎉 Shoutout to Akile & Me3_3los for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]

"I know that a teacher-student relationship is wrong, but at least let me see the teacher one more time...",Ichinose Ayano lowered her head without refuting.

"If you only enjoy the benefits brought by the family and do not know how to contribute to the family, then do not give me any opinions.",Ichinose's congressman scolded mercilessly.

"If you want to see him again, show me your value."

"Remember, in the Service Club, apart from the daughter of the Yukinoshita family, you must build good relationships with everyone else, especially the president of the Service Club."

Directly pleasing the Elf Princess is too straightforward, but pleasing those close to the Elf Princess might achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"You don't need to give him any advantages, just say some nice words to show your admiration. Although you are not yet at the age to marry, if you want to find someone to date, I will introduce you to the heirs of large groups for careful consideration later."

After giving some more instructions to his immature daughter, Ichinose's congressman hurriedly left the living room and returned to his study.

He had to sort out the dirt on the Poiman family he had on hand to see if it could attract the attention of the Elf Princess. It would be best to directly take down the head of the Poiman family, so he could take advantage of the chaos to pick up some benefits.

"...",Watching her father, who only talked about benefits and did not care about her feelings at all, leave, Ichinose Ayano bit her thin cherry lips and stood alone in the empty living room for a long time without speaking. The soft white light fell on her body but did not make her feel any warmth.

'This home... is really cold... not like a home at all...'

"The Rurikawa family... declined after poor management, and then was targeted and sniped by the Poiman family..."

After hanging up the phone, it wasn't long before Congressman Ichinose sent over information related to the Rurikawa family. Hachiman and Iris sat in the living room looking at the materials and discussing.

Asougi Shion didn't understand these things very well and quietly listened to their discussion, occasionally feeding a small piece of cut fruit to Hachiman.

The Rurikawa family is of noble descent, to be precise, a fallen noble family.

Although the noble system has long been abolished, in reality, many former nobles still have considerable wealth and power, and in certain occasions, they still act according to past titles and etiquette.

The Rurikawa family was quite famous and powerful in Chiba before, but now that the Rurikawa family has failed in management, it might not even compare to a prestigious family like the Yukinoshita family, which is supported by a single congressman, let alone a large conglomerate like the Poiman family.

The Poiman family itself is not of noble descent, belonging to the emerging conglomerate forces, but its momentum is fierce. Under the leadership of the new head, it has already swallowed many small and medium-sized forces, and is vaguely approaching the level of the four major conglomerates, but its foundation is not solid enough, and it does not control many important pillar industries.

Such a force, in principle, should not have any conflict with a small fallen family like the Rurikawa family. The reason it has targeted the Rurikawa family is partly to obtain a large piece of private land under the Rurikawa name for development, and partly because it has taken a fancy to the daughter of the Rurikawa family.

The weak Rurikawa family has little ability to fight back against the Poiman family's sniping. The already poorly managed Rurikawa family will soon face the situation of selling their young lady.

Once they refuse, the Rurikawa family will go bankrupt and be heavily in debt, with no possibility of recovery.

Of course, even if they accept, it will be in name only. The Rurikawa family was not doing well in management before, let alone after selling their young lady.

"These conglomerates are indeed overbearing, using so many channels to suppress a small family. If it weren't for wanting the Rurikawa family to submit voluntarily, the Rurikawa family would have gone bankrupt long ago.",After briefly browsing the information on the conflict between the Rurikawa and Poiman families, Hachiman shook his head in speechlessness.

He had to admit that the Poiman family is indeed formidable. If he were to use commercial means to deal with them, there would be little he could do.

Such a force with background and connections often relies on connections and channels in commercial operations. Pure commercial means are difficult to suppress them.

For him, solving the problem in that way is too troublesome and inefficient. Even if he could gather blackmail material on them and use the four major conglomerates to suppress them commercially, it would not be as effective as directly sneaking over and taking them out.

Even though competitors are enemies, because there are too many interests involved in the industry and the connections are deep, it is somewhat difficult to simply bring them down with blackmail material. Usually, it is only after a large number of companies below have gone bankrupt and there is no way to recover that the upper echelons can be liquidated.

"The struggles of the human world are like this, with all kinds of annoying entanglements of interests.",Iris, having also finished reading the information on the Poiman and Rurikawa families, smiled as if it were nothing unusual.

She grew up in the Elf Forest and didn't go out much, but because of various rich texts, she also knows a lot about the human world and knows that such things are very common in the human world.

Compared to humans who are always thinking about struggles for profit, although not all elves are content to live peacefully in the Elf Forest, with a small number unable to resist the restless heart wanting to go out for adventures, the overall atmosphere is much better than that of humans.

"Tomorrow night I will go talk to the head of the Poiman family. The main reason they are targeting the Rurikawa family is the other party's goal. As long as the person is dealt with, then it will be fine."

Hachiman thought about it and decided to go trouble the head of the Poiman family tomorrow.

On the surface, the dispute between the two families is a conflict of interest, but Congressman Ichinose specifically noted in the information that the land in the hands of the Rurikawa family is not a very necessary thing for the Poiman family. The main reason is that the current head of the Poiman family has taken a fancy to Rurikawa Tsubaki and wants to use this method to take both Tsubaki and the Rurikawa family into his hands.

Such a large conglomerate, wanting to bring it down all at once is not realistic. Faced with this situation, as long as the current head is dealt with, the problem of the Rurikawa family can be solved, after all, the plan to attack the Rurikawa family is the intention of this head.

At that time, taking advantage of the chaos caused by the Poiman family losing its head, the Rurikawa family can also catch its breath.

Originally, he wanted to deal with the other party tonight, but after looking at the information provided by Congressman Ichinose, Sunday is the final deadline for the Poiman family to give the Rurikawa family to think about survival or destruction, and tomorrow, Saturday, the current head of the Poiman family will come to Chiba in advance to attend a gathering.

The current head of the Poiman family also has a residence in Chiba to stay at. Going to his residence tomorrow is much simpler than now gathering information on his whereabouts and then going to deal with him.

"Tomorrow night? No problem, Aegis and I will prepare to prevent any unexpected situations.",Iris pondered for a moment and then nodded.

This world is not all ordinary people; there are demi-humans who once came to this world to multiply, as well as local monsters, ghosts, and other special existences. But with their strength, dealing with an ordinary conglomerate-level force with interest disputes should not encounter any obstacles.

Just to prevent other demi-humans who might have secretly come to help such forces do bad things, and to avoid being ambushed and plotted against, she still needs to prepare more.

"Ah? You prepare?",Hachiman was taken aback, then remembered that he hadn't shown his strength. They only knew he was strong in combat, but didn't know he was not just good at dealing with them.

"Iris, you misunderstood. I mean I will go deal with the head of the Poiman family myself tomorrow."

"Don't we need to go with you?"

"President, it's too dangerous for you to go alone!"

Hearing Hachiman's explanation, Iris and the other were also taken aback and quickly advised.

They didn't expect that when their president said he would borrow their name to talk to Congressman Ichinose, he really only meant to borrow their name to get some information and then go alone to take down the head of the Poiman family.

The president's physical strength is indeed quite strong, but they didn't think this physical strength could ignore the threat of firearms like they could. A conglomerate like the Poiman family would definitely have an internal security system with firearms, even heavy firepower, to protect their head.

"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually quite strong."

Hachiman looked somewhat helplessly at the two blonde elf princesses who seemed to underestimate him. Their magic is indeed powerful, even magical in many things, just the cleaning magic that keeps the body spotless at all times is enough to make people envious.

But in terms of combat power, he thinks he should be stronger than Iris and the other.

Provided he doesn't face them head-on when they have cast their magic.

With his Love Live mode, he can easily cross many protective barriers, directly enter stealth mode, and launch a surprise attack from behind, delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.

"President, I don't mean that, I just want to accompany you to see.",Seeing that Hachiman still intended to go alone, Iris could only continue to advise.

They possess magic, and even if they really encounter danger, they can teleport away. The president's physical strength is good, but if he encounters someone he can't beat, he won't be able to run away.

"President, rest assured, our strength is enough to protect ourselves. If anything happens, the three of us facing it together will definitely be better.", Aegis also advised, her duty is to protect Iris, but now the president is the supporter of Iris and her, she also has the responsibility to protect the president and cannot watch the president go on an adventure alone.

"Alright, it's fine for us to go together, we'll go shopping tomorrow and then go trouble the Poiman family at night.", Hachiman looked at Iris and Aegis, even the usually quiet Aegis wanted to advise him to go together, so he could only nod in agreement.

Whether they go or not actually has no bad impact on him, their strength is good and won't cause him any burden, and they might even be able to help him.

He just thought that going alone might lead to doing some things that would make people physically uncomfortable, so he didn't want Iris and the other to follow.

Since they want to follow, then let them. Thinking carefully, Iris's performance has always been very mature, although she was very shy when facing him for the first time, she was still very firm.

As the current Elf Princess and future Elf Queen, Iris can be kind but not weak, so she should be able to face some cruel scenes calmly.

Aegis is even more so, as Iris's personal guard, she is specifically assigned to protect Iris.

"Big brother, you should go take a bath.",Komachi, wearing pajamas, came out of the bathroom, her two slender and fair legs under her skirt stepping on slippers as she walked to the living room sofa, glaring somewhat unhappily at Hachiman who was still cuddling intimately with Iris and Asougi Shion.

'Aren't they tired of this?', This posture hasn't changed much from when she went in to bathe until she finished her bath and came out.

"Why the sudden change in attitude?",Hachiman glanced at Komachi who seemed to be in a bad mood, let go of Iris in his arms, and stood up with her, saying to Komachi.

"By the way, Komachi, tomorrow is the weekend and I'm going out to play with Iris and the others? Do you want to come?"

"Can I go too?",Komachi was taken aback, looking strangely at Hachiman.

Just now, when she was chatting with Iris and the others, she realized that her brother had other plans for tomorrow. Iris and the others were going out on a date with her brother, wouldn't it be inappropriate for her to tag along as a third wheel?

"Although it's a Service Club activity, it's fine for you to come along, because I'm the president, and I've already recruited you as a junior in the Service Club in advance.",Hachiman waved his hand, not caring at all.

Yukinoshita Yukino might have some different opinions, but unfortunately, the Service Club is basically full of his people, and ultimately, he has the final say. Plus, tomorrow we're going out shopping, what can others say if I bring two cute little sisters along?

"Whether you go or not, I'm taking Shion out to play.",Hachiman thought about it, and without waiting for Komachi to answer, added another sentence.

Bringing Shion to the Service Club's counseling activity tomorrow wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Currently, there aren't many people on his love list who have unlocked the teleportation function, Shion and Saki, and the three gyaru, Yuina and the others, also unlocked the teleportation function last night, allowing him to teleport to them at any time.

However, Yuina and the others have no plans to participate in the Service Club's activities tomorrow, so he can only manage his time through Shion and Saki.

Hmm... in the future, when more people are unlocked, he can teleport back and forth at will, completely without fear of any issues.

"Um...",Asougi Shion, hearing Hachiman actively say he would take her out, lowered her head in embarrassment, not saying anything.

Her brother is so good to her, truly fulfilling the promise and treating her as family.

But she has nothing to repay her brother with, only to work hard to make him happier.

"Then I want to go too!",Seeing this, Komachi realized that if Shion went out with her brother, she would be the only one left at home, and quickly hugged Hachiman's arm.

"Really? I won't force you if you don't want to go.",Hachiman glanced at Komachi, who had just been in a bad mood with him.

"Of course it's true!",Komachi realized her brother was still so petty, and quickly hugged Hachiman's arm, smiling coquettishly to please him.

"Hehe, big brother, you're the best, thinking of me even when going out with Iris and the others."

"Haha... we'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm going to take a bath now.",Feeling the softness of Komachi's little cotton-padded jacket again, Hachiman narrowed his eyes, not pursuing the matter further, just smiled and prepared to go take a bath.

"Mm, the water is still hot, big brother, you can soak as much as you want, do you want me to scrub your back?",Komachi quickly nodded her little head, looking pleadingly at Hachiman.

Tomorrow is a Service Club activity with everyone going out, she wants to see what the beauties in her brother's Service Club look like.

"That won't be necessary, Iris and Aegis will scrub for me."

"Eh?",Komachi watched as Iris and Aegis followed Hachiman into the bathroom, opening her mouth as if to say something, then stopping, then wanting to speak again.

Suddenly, she turned to look at Asougi Shion beside her.

"Shion, you're not going to follow them in, are you?"

Previously, Shion was scrubbing her brother's back, and then suddenly, they became a family.

"Of course not!"

Asougi Shion shook her head vigorously, her face red with embarrassment.

She also wanted to go in and help her brother wash his back, but with Iris and Aegis both going into the bathroom, it's already crowded enough. If she went in too, Komachi probably wouldn't even need to think to know what they were doing inside.

Hmm... she'll wait until tomorrow after Iris and the others leave, go out with her brother to meet his Service Club members, and then come back tomorrow night to scrub her brother's back to relieve his fatigue.
