Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

The last one is someone who can eat a lot, so isn't that when they're hungry?

"When we get to the manor, you can't just run around like that," Menreiki instructed the baby bird she was holding.

The chicks responded loudly with "cluck cluck cluck".

Lianhua looked down at the one she was holding and found it to be quiet and composed, a stark contrast to its sisters who were chattering, sleeping soundly, or eating heartily. It was indeed the largest one.

"The eldest of the quintuplets, Ichihwa, is also very composed."

Renka felt that she and Ichika might have common topics to talk about, but unfortunately, according to the contents of the letter, there were only Nino and Miku in the manor.

Lianhua still has a deep impression of these two girls.

Nino's cooking is delicious, and her desserts are even more tasty and exquisite. She also speaks in a very elegant tone; she is a wonderful woman.

What about Miku? Renka clearly remembered Miku's meticulous and serious attitude towards the presentation of the dishes during meals, and she had also witnessed how neat and beautiful Miku's Chinese characters were. Therefore, she assumed that Miku was a very knowledgeable person with a refined lifestyle.

No matter how you look at it, the girl the master likes is quite outstanding, so it seems she also needs to improve herself.

"Everyone, I've made bread."

Zhen came from around the corner of the corridor, carrying a large porcelain plate with many slices of hot, freshly cut bread on it.

giggle!

"Wow! It's bread!" someone cheered excitedly.

"Honoka!"

The serious-natured Sonoda Umi glared at Honoka, who reflexively yelled.

“It’s alright,” Zhen said with a gentle smile. “Being too reserved would only make people feel uncomfortable.”

Menreiki said, "Kyosuke should really enjoy seeing this."

Seeing that both Zashiki and Menreiki were trying to smooth things over, Sonoda Umi had no choice but to give up on her decision to teach Honoka a lesson.

"I don't want to suppress Honoka's true nature like this, but that's just how this era is..."

Sonoda Umi is very tired.

Frankly speaking, she couldn't be more satisfied with the current situation.

However, Honoka's rebellious personality, which had been suppressed for so long, was becoming increasingly out of control, which Sonoda Umi thought was very inappropriate.

After all, this era is one that places great importance on status and position. If one oversteps one's bounds, one will inevitably be despised by everyone!

Sonoda Umi really didn't want her best friend and childhood friend Honoka to suffer such a fate one day.

"Well~" Nozomi Tojo patted Umi Sonoda on the shoulder and smiled slightly, "Let's just relax and eat some bread together on this occasion~"

“I understand…” Sonoda Umi replied, her determination to educate Honoka later still undiminished.

Honoka, seemingly sensing some of Sonoda Umi's thoughts, shrank back and began praying that someone could save her. In an instant, she immediately thought of another close friend, Minami Kotori. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Honoka secretly groan.

Minami Kotori, who was taking care of the baby birds, seemed oblivious to what was happening.

"I can only ask Kotori for help later, but Umi's emotions will gradually rise over time. If Kotori doesn't say something nice to me now, I'll definitely face a lecture for who knows how long."

Honoka's once lively ponytail drooped, losing its youthful charm.

Who will save me...

Koizumi Hanayo's catchphrase was borrowed by Honoka.

"coming."

Menreiki suddenly said something.

Honoka was taken aback. Who was it? Before Honoka could react, a man and a woman walked in from outside.

"Kyosuke-sama!"

With her keen senses, Sonoda Umi immediately noticed something amiss and greeted him respectfully.

Not only Sonoda Umi, but also Tojo Nozomi, Ayase Eli, Hoshizora Rin, and others, all took a few steps forward, as if to welcome Kousaka Kyosuke.

giggle!

The four chicks also made quite a commotion.

"They're so enthusiastic," said Kyosuke Kousaka.

Lianhua said, "This is a warm welcome. Welcome over."

"Don't be so quick to welcome me," Kyosuke Kosaka said. "Since you have free access to the house, I'd like to invite you over for a visit, along with some other people, hehe..."

Halfway through his speech, Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't help but imitate the chirping of baby birds. These baby birds were the most enthusiastic, and it seemed inappropriate not to greet them.

"puff……!"

Rin Hoshizora must have a low threshold for laughter, because she laughed out loud, and then suddenly covered her mouth with both hands.

Isn't it too late?

Kyosuke Kosaka glanced at the other girls who looked awkward: "Laugh if you want. I just saw that Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter were too enthusiastic, so I just responded in kind."

"Hahaha--"

Honoka, who had been stunned just a moment ago, was now clutching her stomach and laughing uncontrollably, finally coming to her senses.

Is the neural arc a bit too long?

"You probably won't understand," Zhen said, blushing.

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't understand why Zashiki was blushing. Could it be that his bird calls really corresponded to certain phrases?

In reality, Zhen felt ashamed for Kousaka Kyosuke but didn't know how to express it. However, she was very happy and her gaze towards Kousaka Kyosuke became increasingly gentle and affectionate.

"I've observed that it has to be chirped at a certain frequency, 'cluck cluck cluck~~'"

After laughing heartily, Honoka quickly shared her discovery!

She was also mimicking Kyosuke Kousaka's bird calls, and the four chicks chirped even more merrily when they heard Honoka's calls.

Zhen looked completely bewildered.

Kyosuke Kosaka asked Zashiki curiously, "Did they really match?"

“Yes. Honoka asked, ‘Are we all happy that you came, Kyosuke-sama?’ Everyone answered that they were very happy…”

"This guided communication method is quite good."

Despite his surprise, Kyosuke Kosaka still offered a very fair compliment.

Excellent! Now I have even more reasons to help my sworn sister!

"Let's all sit down, have some tea and bread, and rest," Menreiki suggested softly.

"Alright."

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled at Reiki across from him.

This young woman exudes the air of a virtuous wife and loving mother, yet her bare feet and white attire reveal a strong youthful vibe, creating a charming contrast.

"We'll prepare it for you right away—" The respectful voice rang out again, slightly louder.

"Thank you for your trouble, but there's no need to be so polite."

Kousaka Kyosuke smiled at Sonoda Umi, feeling a surge of affection for this upright girl whose personality was no less beautiful than Tennoji's. He just didn't know why she reminded him of Pochi-chan... How strange.

Oh, right, I remember Su Chang saying that Sonoda Umi's younger brother sometimes makes exaggerated expressions...

404. Taking Away / Maki and Umi's Praise / Reincarnation

Kousaka Kyosuke and Kagura, who had just arrived at the mansion, quickly blended in after sitting down with everyone.

Incidentally, I also received a cup of hot tea and a piece of fluffy, sweet bread.

"Menreiki and Lianhua want to go play. How about you and your four little darlings join us too, Zhen?"

"Lord Kyosuke, we'll be fine here..." Zhen said quickly.

Kyosuke Kosaka thought for a moment and said, "I wasn't actually asking for your opinion, I was just informing you."

Upon hearing this, Zhen was stunned for several seconds. When she came to her senses, she lowered her head and gave a soft "hmm," just like a newlywed bride.

It must be mentioned that the way Zhen looked with her head down and her cheeks slightly flushed was truly beautiful.

Okay, next one.

"And Nozomi, Eli, I also plan to take you to the manor. They're planning to form a band there these days, so they need you."

Kousaka Kyosuke then looked at Tojo Nozomi, Ayase Eli, and the others who were some distance away from him.

These people's role has changed from "accompanying Lianhua" to "performing for the public in the manor," a qualitative change in their work, and he is confident that everyone will like it.

"Yes, Lord Kyosuke! We will do our best to achieve the best!"

"do not worry!"

Nozomi Tojo and Eli Ayase quickly bowed their heads in agreement, and the others around them also silently bowed their heads in unison to show that they understood.

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Then I'll pick you up tomorrow."
