On the subject of admiration, Eris would also be good.
Eris had been teaching Norn the sword for quite a while.
Ever since Norn graduated, she’s been going jogging and doing practice swings with Eris every morning.
It’s clear to see that Norn looks up to her.
But with Eris’s commando personality, telling her to “Ask indirectly” would be impossible.
It would have to be Roxy.
No wait, Someone with a high skill level at “Asking indirectly” would be Sylphy.
She looks up to Sylphy in a slightly different sense than admiration, but at the very least, she does recognise that she’s the most important member of the household.
No, I should probably discuss it with all three present.
Four with me included, and we can decide who would be most suited.
It would be good to hear Sylphy and Roxy’s opinions.
Wait, wait, not just the three of them, would it be better to bring Lillia and Zenith in on it too?
“…”
I was sitting on the living room sofa, thinking about it by myself when…
Into my field of vision jumped a single woman.
“Ah.”
It’s Norn.
Norn walked into the Living room.
“Nii-san, I’m home.”
“…Welcome back.”
When you take a good look, all said, Norn is actually quite the beauty.
She looks a lot like Zenith when she was young.
Her breasts are large and she’s got silky blonde hair.
Even at school she was popular.
“…What is it?”
“No… Ah, Norn, you want some tea?”
“I’ll have some.”
I took a cup from the table and poured out some black tea and handed it to her.
Norn took the cup and looked puzzled.
“…It’s cold now.”
“Eeh!”
Even though I just had Lillia brew it?
I thought that and touched the teapot, and it was indeed cold.
The cup in my hand was also cold.
I wonder what happened.
Are we under some kind of attack!?
“…Huh? Norn, that reminds me, don’t you have work today?”
“I just got home from there now.”
I took a look out the window and it was already evening.
After I returned from my meeting with Orsted and had Lillia brew me some tea, it was early afternoon, which means that around two hours have passed.
“Ah, sorry, it seems I spaced out.”
“Please save the spacing out for when you’re older… I’ll go make some fresh tea. You wait here.”
“…Huh? Is no one else here?”
Until a little while ago, Sylphy and Eris were still here.
And Roxy should also be home around this time.
“I walked past Sylphy-Neesan and Eris-Neesan on my way home, they were taking the kids for a walk. Lillia-san was shopping.”
“…Aisha?”
“I don’t know. Wouldn’t she probably still be with the mercenary group?”
As she said that, Norn walked into the kitchen with the Teapot.
But is that right, nobody else is here.
It’s just Norn and I…
Couldn’t this be called some kind of perfect situation.
Hm.
Avoid a roundabout wordy conversation and tell her to her face.
And if that should fail, I’ll try something else.
That would be the option most faithful to Norn.
Hmm. Hmm.
Talking to her only after I had removed all the obstacles, Norn wouldn’t like that.
After all, it’s her that’s getting married.
I’ll hear it from Norn first.
“Here you go.”
“Thanks.”
As I thought that, Norn had returned and placed a teacup in front of me.
I sat right in front of Norn and drank from the cup.
“You’ve gotten quite good at making tea.”
“I learnt it in school after all.”
“Not from Lillia-san?”
“Lillia-san… probably wouldn’t teach me.”
Rather than not teaching you, she’d most likely tell you to ‘Let me do it’.
“If you asked, I think she’d still teach you.”
“Probably, but they had a class at school, so I thought I might as well learn it there. Also, there aren’t many opportunities to make tea at home, but there are plenty at school.”
“That’s true.”
Like at the student council and in her dorm room.
