Nighttime, Kohaku’s room .

Taiyou was facing Kohaku with a serious face .

“Kohaku, I want to borrow your knowledge . ”

“Aye . ”

Year in and year out about 90% of the time every day, this youthful elder mainly spent her time fooling around, but when faced with an earnest Taiyou, she mirrored his expression with a likewise earnest one, nodding .

Relieved to see this, Taiyou brought his intentions out into the open .

“A faction, was it? How does one go about making those?”

“Do ye intend to begin from scratch? Or were ye thinking of hijacking one? There be a big difference depending on yer answer, ja . ”

“Mm, maybe a little of both . ”

“Mm?”

Kohaku cocked her head .

She had previously gone into the bath, which was why she was now wearing bear-print pajamas, so that combined with her mannerism was so cute that Taiyou almost felt like going off track .

But he resisted the impulse and continued on with the conversation .

“I want to take the members of a dismantled faction and make a new one . ”

“I see, and that be why ye said a little of both, ja . ”

“Yes . ”

“There are two main roles expected of a boss, or so I feel . ”

Kohaku held out two fingers, almost like she was making a peace sign .

“One be charisma . I take it ye don’t need an explanation for that one . ”

“Yeah, I could see that taking a while . Just the one word is plenty . ”

Taiyou nodded . Say what you want, everything could simply be summarized by the single word charisma .

Now that the explanation was unnecessary, he looked at her for the next explanation .

“The second one be money collection . Realistically, ye need money to both gather and nurture people . ”

“Okay, money . ”

“Furthermore, if ye have money then people will naturally come to ye . Ah, wait, I guess I didn’t need to say that . Ye already have several people ye want to take care of . ”

“Yes . ”

“Then just think about gathering money . ”

“Money, huh…”

He repeated those same words .

The answer was simple enough, but its implementation, not so much .

“…And I assume ye want to make it in Juunishima, ja?”

Kohaku pinpointed what Taiyou was worrying about .

“Yes . ”

“Then ye’d best avoid getting it from Youran and Sakursan…but ye don’t have yer own source o’money . ”

“That’s going to be troublesome . ”

“Well I do have a secret stash…although it’s the equivalent of pouring water on a hot stone . ”

“Maybe I should hit the lottery, eh?”

“Nah, ye’d be better off robbing a bank with yer capabilities, Dannsama . ”

“Very true . ”

Taiyou grimaced .

It had been a serious conversation up until now, but now they were bouncing jokes back at each other .

He had begun to resort to escapism without realizing it . That was just how much of an issue money was .

“What to dooo…”

“I have…the answers you need . ”

He heard a quiet voice .

He turned to see Ruri in a white dress .

Since when had she been in there? She was staring at Taiyou .

“What, does he need ta destroy humanity?”

Of course Kohaku would resort to a joke . Flicking her on the forehead, Taiyou spoke to Ruri .

“What’s up? It’s rare for you to participate in conversations like these . ”

“I have…the answers you need . ”

Ruri repeated the same phrase .

“Okay . ”

“Darling, you…need money?”

“Yep, seems so . ”

He glanced at Kohaku rubbing her forehead . She soon looked back up .

“I’ll…lend some to you . ”

“No, some personal savings aren’t gonna…wait . ”

Taiyou swallowed what he was about to say .

He remembered when they had first met .

Escorting for a million per day, demanding 10 million for one job?

The strongest sword wielder in the world demanded quite a bit of money as payment .

She would even demand that much of Taiyou, a high school student .

Then, did that mean—-?

“You…have that much?”

“Adding in Gates and justice…divided by ten thousand . ”

“Make it easier to understand! How much is that even supposed to be!?”

“…We’re talking hundreds of millions here, ja . ”

Kohaku answered quietly . She had probably calculated it all in her head .

Taiyou was astonished to hear that . He looked at Kohaku and Ruri in turn .

Kohaku was serious, and Ruri was just as placid as ever .

Judging from their expressions, they seemed to affirm what he was wondering .

“Are you serious?”

“Mhm…she got it pretty spot-on . ”

“Darling, I don’t mind…lending you some money with interest…within the legal limits . ”

“Oi oi, are ye seriously going ta take interest from Dannsama? That’s just—-”

Kohaku chastised Ruri . Taiyou understood what she was getting at .

Those calling themselves Taiyou’s wives should unconditionally give him their everything .

Lending him money was already pushing it, but interest? Out of the question .

At least this was what Kohaku was thinking . But Taiyou had other ideas .

He held out his hand motioning for Kohaku to be silent, kissing Ruri on the lips .

“Stingy as usual, I see . It’s been that way ever since we’ve met . ”

“Mhm…I am a cheapskate . ”

“I’ll gladly accept your offer . And I will absolutely return it with interest . ”

“Darling, if it’s you, then…don’t worry about any promissory notes . ”

“I appreciate you trusting me . ”

“I never said I trusted you . Jump a bill…and I jump you . ”

“Ooo, so scary!”

Taiyou said jokingly .

He was of course certain that if he shirked the bill, she would cut him down .

Meanwhile, to the side, Kohaku had a mixed—-or to be more frank, a sulky—-expression on her face .

“What’s the matter, Kohaku-san?”

“Nothing at all, ja . ”

“No, I can tell by looking at you . What happened?”

“Nothing at all, ja . ”

Kohaku repeated the same phrase .

“Darling…that’s jealousy . ”

Ruri pointed out .

“Jeal…ousy?”

“Yes…jealousy . ”

“Jealousy…”

It took him more than ten seconds to comprehend what she had just said .

This was probably because it was the first time Kohaku had ever displayed jealousy .
