Volume 1 Chapter 91 Yuki Ami's Confession： A Story That Seems Like a Lie (I)
Now, the next is 'A True Story That Seems Like a Lie', but... it's actually about my *current self*.
Honestly, that worry hasn't disappeared even now.
I mean...,
Right now, I'm actually in trouble, you know!?
"So... have you made up your mind, Ami-san?"
"Huh!? Ah, no... um, not yet..."
I instinctively smiled politely while responding to the person who asked that question.
Then,
"Why? Why do you need to worry? You want to become stronger as fast as possible as a Seeker, right? If so, I, Sophia Knightley, am saying that I will personally teach you! It's okay, no need to hesitate. After all, I am the *true operator* of the 'Omega-sama's is really strong faction'... Hehe!"
"H-Hahaha..."
Right now... I was being approached with a strong tone and slightly *unfocused eyes* by 'Big 4 King' Sophia Knightley-sama, the Vice Guild Master of the World Seeker Guild Association British Headquarters, saying she wanted to personally guide me as her direct disciple!
...In other words, it's a scout.
Honestly, my thoughts can't keep up with reality.
After all, it's 'Big 4 King' Sophia Knightley-sama, who is ranked number 2 in the Seeker world rankings!
The fact that she is right in front of me saying "I want you as my disciple!"...
Such a scenario is so far from reality that it's completely confusing, like a Gestalt collapse level!
Moreover, worst of all (ah, well, I think people outside will envy me), she wasn't the only one *scouting* me.
"Sophia-oneechan, don't you think that show of power is a bit much? Oh, I'm Elena Zweikov, the leader of the 'Three Wise Men.' What? You know? That's wonderful! I know about Ami-chan too! After all, she's Omega-sama's little sister, so she knows everything properly... you see! Since Ami-chan will eventually become my 'sister-in-law.' So, I think it's only logical for me, her 'future sibling,' to guide her directly. Ami-chan thinks so too, right? You do, don't you?"
The person babbling nonsensically is... the leader of the 'Three Wise Men,' Elena Zweikov.
Ranked 6th in the Seeker world... a super celebrity known as 'Number Six' or 'God of Trap.'
It seems that, in her (his?) mind, a future marriage with Takeru-nii has been secured, and as a result, my guidance as a future stepsibling is definitely being discussed by me... it appears.
Huh?
Are same-sex marriages allowed in Japan?
No, no, that's not it.
This isn't about that.
But what kind of relationship does she have with Takeru-nii?
The thing is, I haven't been able to see Takeru-nii since the day he confessed to our family that 'Omega is himself.'
So, I don't really understand the relationship between Takeru-nii and Sophia-san or Elena-chan (who asked to be called that) who showed up afterward.
According to Sakurako-sama, she said, "It's just a dungeon investigation. Nothing, they'll be back soon," but it's already been 3 days.
When I told Sakurako-sama, "I'm worried because it's the first time Takeru-nii hasn't come home in over a day during exploration," it seemed she was calling Takeru-nii saying, "Just a moment please. Hello, is this Takeru? Your sister is worried about you..."
Immediately, I switched and spoke with Sakurako-sama.
The person on the phone was indeed Takeru-nii.
Since it had been a while since I last saw Takeru-nii, I asked him to "talk via video call" for my "Takeru-nii intake."
Takeru-nii readily agreed and quickly switched to a video call.
The Takeru-nii on the video call was unmistakably Takeru-nii... but something felt off.
I felt a slight discomfort.
Nevertheless, I moved the conversation forward without mentioning it.
After I finished my story, Takeru-nii asked me to tell "Mom that I'll be back within 5 days. Also, let her know that there's nothing to worry about here," so I replied affirmatively and ended the call.
Despite feeling an indescribable discomfort, I was relieved to confirm that Takeru-nii was safe.
* * *
...Having strayed a bit, let's return to the topic.
After Takeru-nii left, Sophia-sama and Elena-chan came to Japan... to the Shinjuku Gyoen Guild.
And somehow, they knew that Takeru-nii was an Omega, and they also knew that I was Takeru-nii's sister.
I was surprised to hear that, but since Sakurako-sama wasn't surprised, she must have informed them.
No, Sakurako-sama!
I wanted you to tell me that too!
By the way, I still haven't become a Seeker.
That means I don't have a registration card.
...Despite that, I was visiting Sakurako-sama's room in the Shinjuku Gyoen Guild almost every day.
When I asked Sakurako-sama why that was, she said, "It's special training to become a Seeker. I'll personally guide you!" and so I spent my days receiving direct instruction from Sakurako-sama.
Honestly, for someone like me aiming to be a Seeker, Sakurako-sama feels like a 'heavenly being.'
It's undoubtedly an incredible fortune to be directly guided by such a person.
However, personally, I do sense a bit of 'overprotection.'
What I mean to say is,
"Isn't there another reason for you coming here...?"
