CHAPTER 290 – THE COLOR OF THE SOUL, MANY OTHERS .
To confirm Caroline’s new ability, to see check her eyes .
Using my Warp Feather, I returned to the mansion with Caroline .
?Ah! Master?
When I warped to my bedroom, we encountered Miu who was making the bed .
?Nana-san was searching for Master?
?I also have business with Nana . Tell her to come here?
?Yes!?
Although Miu nodded, she did not take any other action and only continued to make the bed .
It’s not like she ignored my order .
I’ve given Miu the lottery skill “Puppet Master” .
She probably used an idle puppet or one that is near Nana to call her .
Suddenly, I noticed Caroline’s eyes .
She was staring at Miu .
?What’s the matter?
?There’s nothing?
?Eh??
?I can’t see anything……why??
?You can’t see anything……? You are talking about Miu, that girl right??
Caroline nodded .
I can see a clear color of confusion from her expression .
?Isn’t it because it’s a puppet?
?Ahh, I see?
I realized after hearing Eleanor .
The one here isn’t the original Miu . It’s only a puppet made to look similar to her .
It’s a soulless but well-made puppet .
?Well, naturally you can’t see anything huh?
I was convinced, but Caroline was still confused .
I was about to comfort her by explaining it to her……but I stopped .
I want to test her eyes, so it’s too early to comfort her .
It will be for the best if we proceed like this without giving her any preconception .
I thought of that and waited for a while after deciding not to say anything .
*KonKon* .
The bedroom’s door was knocked and Nana entered .
?I have come to answer your summons . Aruji, I heard that you have business with me?
?Before that, let’s start with yours . You also wanted something from me right??
?Ha! I wanted to report that there are suspicious figures around the mansion for the past few days?
?Suspicious figures? Are they strong??
?No . They are only at the level where the platoon leaders are able to defeat?
?I see . I’ll leave dealing with them to you then . If you think it’s not needed??no?
I stopped halfway and changed my words .
?Report to me after it’s over . Bring with you those who have particular achievements?
I implied that I’ll be giving them rewards .
Hearing that, Nana nodded with a more dignified expression than usual .
?What business did Aruji call me for??
?Just stand right there??Caroline?
I made Nana stand by and looked at Caroline .
?How does she look??
?She’s so blinding?
?Blinding, huh?
?Un . Her light is amazing, it’s as if I’m looking at the sky during the day?
?As strong as the sun huh?
I was convinced and became happy at the same time .
I became very happy hearing that the evaluation of Nana’s soul was even better than I expected .
?Aruji……? What does that mean??
?Don’t mind it . It’s over now?
?Haa……??
?Come to my bedroom tonight . Make sure you’re alone?
???! Yes!?
Nana was surprised for an instant, but soon after, she made an unusually happy smile .
If Caroline’s eyes are correct, it means that Nana’s soul is shining like the sun .
It makes me happy??it makes me want her .
And to execute my order, Nana left the mansion to take care of the matter of the suspicious figures .
I saw her off and when I was thinking who I should let Caroline take a look at .
?Otou-san?!?
?Myu?!?
The door was slammed open and Hikari and Chibi Dragon entered the room .
The lovely girl and the small dragon ran towards me and clung to me at the same time .
?Otou-san?, welcome back!?
?Yeah, I’m back . Were you playing with Olivia??
?Un! I was playing with O-chan and everyone!?
?I see, I see . Are you tired? Want to eat some snack??
?Un!?
?Miu?
?Understood?
Miu nodded and trotted out of the room, probably towards the kitchen .
Hikari hugged me, she’s still the world’s cutest girl as usual .
?Ne?, ne?, Otou-san . Hikari wants to go to the hotsprings??
?Hotsprings huh?
?Un! I want my hair washed like an adult, just like what Otou-san taught me??
?I see, I see?
The adult way of washing hair that Hikari said was one that doesn’t use a shampoo hat, the one that washes the shampoo without looking down .
I told Hikari about that before, and since then, it looks like she started to like it .
?Yosh?yosh . Let’s go next time?
?Un!?
?Myu?, myuu?!?
?O-chan said she wants to go too?
?Ahh, of course?
?Really, there’s a limit on doting over her?
I ignored Eleanor’s voice and patted the world’s cutest Hikari’s head .
?A-re???
?What’s the matter, Hikari?
?Onee-chan……what’s the matter??
Hikari looked at Caroline curiously .
I followed her gaze……and noticed as well .
Caroline was frightened for some reason .
?What happened, Caroline?
?I’m scared……?
?Scared??
I looked at the direction Caroline was looking at when she said she was scared .
And then……it was Hikari .
?Hohe???
?Uu……God?……?
Caroline looked very frightened . She hid on my back and held my clothes tightly . She clung to me .
?Is Hikari, scary??
?No, that’s not true at all . Hikari is the cutest in the world?
?But, Onee-chan……?
?Even so, that’s not true at all???
?Enough already, you doting idiot?
Eleanor scolded me with a slightly strong tone while rolling her eyes .
?What’s going on??
?You should be glad Hikari?
?Hohe?? What do you mean, Okaa-san?
?It seems that that girl can see the one’s soul at its bare state?
?The soul??
?Umu . It can also be described as one’s true nature . What is Hikari’s identity??
?Hikari’s a Demon Sword you know? I’m Okaa-san’s daughter after all?
Hikari answered promptly .
She did not have any doubts about that, reacting as if it was something obvious .
?Umu . Hikari is a Demon Sword . A Demon Sword only second to this Eleanor in this world . Looking at your true nature, it is only natural that she is frightened?
?I see?!?
?……it’s like that huh?
I understand what Eleanor is saying . I also got a better understanding of Caroline’s eyes .
But it felt complicated .
I couldn’t be convinced that Hikari, this lovely and the world’s cutest girl would be a cause of fear .
?Ehehe?……Hikari became another step closer to Okaa-san again??
?Umu . Continue to do your best?
?Un!?
But Hikari seems to like it and Eleanor and Hikari’s conversation was the same as before .
Hikari became more of a Demon Sword……and that was proven .
I probably should be happy about it just like how Hikari does .
?You heard her?
?Ehehe??
Hikari hugged Chibi Dragon and spun around .
She’s so cute after all . However, Caroline as still scared of her despite how cute she looks .
It was somewhat of a surreal scene .
Suddenly, I became curious .
I turned around, subtly hiding Hikari’s appearance, and asked Caroline .
?By the way, how do you look from you??
?God??
?Yeah, me?
Will she be afraid after all?
I’m the “Demon Sword Wielder” or Eleanor and Hikari after all . I’m even using the dark aura in daily life .
I thought that I’d be on the side that would frighten her, so I asked .
?If I can corrupt you with just that, I’ve already possessed you a long time ago?
Eleanor said while rolling her eyes .
Ahh, I see .
My resistance against the Demon Sword is 777x too after all .
And just like what Eleanor said .
?God is God?
?Un??
?You are very……God……-ly? God is God, different from everyone else?
Caroline continued to call me god while her eyes became even more fervent .
