I Managed to Bring Down the Entire Family of That Impossible-To-Conquer S-Class Beauty, Completely Filling in Her Outer Moat
“This is my house.”
“Huh…?”
I kept walking with Amagiri-san until we arrived at the house.
…We arrived, but I couldn’t hide my shock—my eyes widened in disbelief.
(This house… isn’t this Akitoshi-kun’s house!?)
It was the same house as the boy I met that day when we went bug-hunting in the mountains—Aki-kun.
Wait… so? Does that mean Aki-kun’s older sister is actually Amagiri san?
Anyway, if she found out I’d been secretly hanging out with him behind her back, it’d be dangerous. I might get labeled a shota-con and get looked down on.
To keep my peaceful days going, I need to hand over the cat, Serinuntius-chan… I mean, Serin-chan, and leave this place!
“W-well then, I’ll be going now…”
This time, after handing over Serichan, I tried to leave.
Just then, the house door creaked open.
“I’m going out to look for onii chan again today! Oh, onee chan, welcome home… Wait, onii chan!?”
“Ah… H-how long has it been, Akitoshi-kun…”
“onii chan! I’ve wanted to see you for sooooo long!!!!”
“Guh!”
The one who came out of the house was that Akitoshi-kun who loves insects.
The moment he noticed me, his face lit up like dawn breaking. He immediately pounced and headbutted me right in the solar plexus.
“Huh? Wh-why do you two know each other!?”
“Well, there’s a bit of a story behind that…”
Amagiri-san looked back and forth between me and Akitoshi-kun, who was clinging to me like glue, sparks seemingly flying behind her eyelids.
I explained to Amagiri-san from the beginning why Akitoshi-kun and I were close.
“…and that’s how I became friends with Akitoshi-kun.”
“So it really was Watarai-kun who saved him back then! Thank you so much for that…!!”
“Not at all! I’m sorry I dragged Akitoshi-kun around the mountains like that…”
“It’s fine, it’s fine! he was so happy he caught a stag beetle!”
Wow, how kind is Amagiri-san?
No wonder there’s a sudden surge in guys misunderstanding things, confessing, and getting crushed.
“Um, I kinda wanna go home…”
“onii chan. I told you to wait back then, right?”
“Y-yeah.”
“Why’d you leave?!”
“Well, I had… stuff to do? …Sorry.”
“Muuu!”
Akitoshi-kun puffed out his childish, soft cheeks, his anger plain to see.
I felt an urge to touch them, but doing so would probably just make him even angrier.
“Today I’m eating dinner with onii chan! Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely!!”
“Amagiri-san, please help me somehow…”
“I wanted to thank you too, so you’re more than welcome! Come on, let’s go inside!”
“No way!?”
There was no escape now. I gave up and was led into Amagiri-san’s house.
Inside, the decor was perfectly average, filled with a savory aroma. The smell of dinner, perhaps?
What on earth was going to happen to me now? I swallowed hard, bracing myself to be boiled or roasted.
Then, the door leading to the living room opened, and a tall man appeared.
“What’s all this commotion? It’s pretty noisy in here. Let me join in too~”
“Huh? Wh-whoa, Chitose-san!?”
“Huh? Who are you—wait, you’re… What? Hope-kun!?”
It was Chitose-san, a close gaming friend.
My jaw dropped, but he closed the distance as if to say “So ?” and hooked his arm through mine.
“What’s this?! You’re becoming part of our family starting today?! Yayyyy! We can game together all we want now~~!!”
“No way! Wait, Chitose-san is Amagiri-san’s dad!?”
“Yep. Looks just like me, cute, right?”
“Chitose-san isn’t cute.”
“That’s mean!? And don’t suddenly get all serious on me, Hope-kun!”
Hang on… If Chitose-san is Amagiri-san’s dad, then that bento I got back then…
“Watarai-kun is Hope-san’s… ? Wait, so Watarai-kun ate the bento I made!?”
“Y-yeah, looks like it… It was super delicious, so no problem!”
“Well, I guess that’s good… Ugh, this is so embarrassing!”
“But that sweet potato dish… wow, that was something else.”
“Waaah! I knew it was a disaster!”
Amagiri-san blushed rose-pink with embarrassment. Getting to see this for free while paying for a plastic bag? Seriously?
“Aw, China-chan blushing like that is so cute☆”
“Shut up, Dad!!”
“Yes…”
I know almost nothing about Amagiri-san’s family structure, but it seems she’s high up in the hierarchy.
But now that I know Chitose-san is in this house, things are going to get even more complicated. Maybe I should slip away quietly.
Just as I tried to turn my heel and leave stealthily, the sound of a lock clicking shut reached my ears from behind.
“Oh dear oh dear. First you escaped from the nail salon, then the shopping mall… I won’t let you get away a third time~♪”
“H-H-Huh? Hina-san!?”
The woman smiling boldly and cheerfully was Hina-san, the president of a fashion modeling agency.
Overwhelmed by her presence, I couldn’t form coherent words.
“Mom knows him too!? Wh-what’s going on!?”
“China, this is Nozomu-chan~, the one who made the nails you liked so much~”
“Huh, so it wasn’t a girl named Nozomu!?”
Come to think of it, I had given the nails I made to Hina-san, saying “I’ll give them to my daughter.”
I had acted as an intermediary, but apparently it had been arranged for Amagiri-san to receive the gift directly.
“Now then, Nozomu chan? Let’s go inside~. Then we’ll eat together~♪”
“Eh, no, well…”
“onii chan, you’re eating, right?!!”
“Hope-kun, go eat. Then chat about games with Papa, okay?”
‘Meow—’
The majority here are giving me looks that say they won’t let me escape.
Everyone has sharp, predatory eyes.
My retreat is blocked, so I have no choice but to advance…!
“Um… well then, excuse me…”
There was a desperate way to escape from here. But it would definitely cause trouble later.
So, I obediently took off my shoes and stepped onto the entryway mat.
Directly in front of me (in a hug) was the little brother, Akitoshi-kun. The father, China-san, had his arm around my shoulders. The mother, Hina-san, was stroking my head. And at my feet, rubbing against me, was the cat, Seri-chan.
((What the hell is this situation…))
I’m not great at reading minds, but at that moment, I felt like I synced with Amagiri-san.
I walked down the hallway, the door to the room opened, and I stepped inside. There, sitting on the sofa and cleaning a fishing rod, was an elderly man. I recognized him.
“Ah, it’s Nabatame-san.”
“Hm? Eh? Wh-why is Nozomu here!?”
Somehow, I’d stopped being surprised even when meeting people I knew.
Nabatame-san, whom I’d met on the embankment, was there, but he seemed more shocked than I was.
“China, this is the boy who risked his life to retrieve my treasure!”
“…Wait, wasn’t it a girl named Nozomu♡-chan!? (Second time)”
“Well now, what a blessing you’ve come to my place. Make yourself comfortable. You should try some of the fish I caught this morning!”
“I-I don’t need any trouble…”
Due to certain circumstances, I ended up exchanging YINE with his granddaughter instead of Nabatame san
What that means is I now have the hard-to-get contact info for Amagiri san.
If this gets out, will my bones even remain in this world?
“I totally misunderstood because of YINE’s heart…!”
“My apologies about that. Wearing the heart is like some kind of punishment game…”
“That’s confusing, Watarai-kun! I thought you were just a regular girl and contacted you!!”
“I’m sooooo sorry!!”
This time, Amagiri-san’s face flushed slightly with anger, and she waved her arms frantically. I apologized to her with all my might.
But given how things are going, I kinda feel like one more person might show up…
“—Well, well, that’s fine. Exchanging contact info with your favorite idol? How enviable. Right, Natsuki-ou?”
“…Sachiko san, you seem unchanged…”
“Hohoho, only a few days have passed, so nothing’s changed. I won’t let you escape this time, sensei♡”
“P-please go easy on me…”
Silently, Sachiko-san appeared too, with a face identical to Amagiri-san’s.
They say truth is stranger than fiction, and it really seems to be true.
“Grandma too!? Eh, so that new novel you were writing back then… was actually about real events…!? How did you know, Grandma?!!”
“Hm? I don’t know. What’s that? Scary…”
“Ah, that’s not what I meant!”
—The Unaproachable S-Class beauty, Amagiri China-san.
Naturally, I lived in a completely different world from her.
I’d probably graduate high school without ever crossing paths with her.
I’d spend my evenings in the usual quiet, ordinary way.
That’s what I… thought…!
“Onii chan! After dinner today, let’s go bug hunting together! And then… we’ll sleep over!”
“You little brat! Dad would never allow that! Hope-kun is staying up all night gaming with me today!”
“You two are so noisy~? Nozomu-chan, why don’t we just ignore them and go shopping instead?♪”
“Ahem. I… I believe we had plans for night fishing together today…”
“Grandpa, stop fabricating promises. Now then, sensei? I’ve finished writing my latest work, so I’d like you to read it.”
‘Goronyan~♡’
The entire Amagiri family was gathered, and for some reason, they all seemed to be seeking me out.
If I moved even slightly, someone would bump into me—they’d closed in so close, pushing and shoving…!
It felt like I was seeing a daytime dream.
Even pinching my cheek wouldn’t wake me up.
Why? How could this be…—
““Why did this happen…?””
Amagiri-san and I murmured that simultaneously.
Maiasa
Even the cat, lol.
Et tu, feels? (Kai su, gata?)
Really enjoying the silly nature of this one so far. Thanks for the translation!
