Machete Style Anime

Take a bath together?

No! I'm a decent person, I wouldn't do something like spying!

In order to defend his reputation as a gentleman, he disregarded his exhausted body and began to struggle desperately in the arms of the second young lady.

Yukino Yukinoshita had already walked to the bathroom, where the humidity was higher than in other places.

Humans are not very sensitive to these changes, but pets are very sensitive to changes in humidity.

This is especially true for organisms that are afraid of water.

Therefore, even though Kasugano Mirai started struggling before even entering the bathroom and seeing the water, she didn't consider the possibility that the other person could understand human speech. In fact, because of her sister's previous instructions and her own understanding of cats' habits, she had prepared in advance.

—They seized fate by the scruff of its neck.

Normally, because mother cats bite the back of their kittens' necks when transferring them, the kittens, as adults, retain this instinct and do not resist when choked in that area.

The problem is, Kasugano Mirai is essentially a human, not a cat!

Even though the second young lady had his neck choked, he didn't calm down. Instead, he performed a set of cat-like punches in mid-air.

Seeing this, the second young lady was not angry at all, but became even happier.

"She's quite lively, the medical report is correct, and she's indeed quite healthy."

Prequel: Parting Ways, Each Finding Their Own Happiness (Part 1) [6k]

If—and this is just a hypothetical scenario—you were transported to the world of anime, and you had a stepsister named Kasugano Sora, and although your parents weren't both dead or both busy, they were very supportive of you and your sister's relationship evolving from siblings to lovers, and your sister was also deeply in love with you, what would you do?

Kasugano Mirai didn't know the answer to this question.

He is currently at a crossroads in his life, feeling lost.

In his previous life, as a fan fiction author, he wouldn't say he was 100% an otaku, but he was at least half an otaku.

Therefore, those well-known anime girls are almost all his wings.

Kasugano Sora may not be one of the Five Wise Sisters, but she is definitely the epitome of the younger sister type.

His former fictional wife has become a real person and has fallen deeply in love with him.

According to general theory, it is impossible for most people to refuse such a wonderful thing.

However, for some reason, Kasugano Mirai has always felt a strong resistance to this since she was a child.

This resistance isn't the kind of resistance that stems from disliking or loathing one's sister, or not wanting to be with her. It's more like a fear of her for some reason, a subconscious desire to stay away from her.

Aside from children who have received special training or grown up in special environments, most children find it difficult to hide their feelings, especially their likes and dislikes of others.

Because they are innocent and naive, they lack an intuitive understanding of good and evil.

In this situation, it is easy to cause harm to others.

However, Kasugano Mirai was, after all, a powerful emperor who had lived a second life. Even if her scheming and cunning in her previous life weren't particularly impressive, she was still able to conceal such issues.

Although he didn't know why he disliked his sister who was obsessed with her brother, it was no lie that the Kasugano couple had adopted him, treated him as their own son, and wanted to match him with their biological daughter.

Even if it were just to put their minds at ease and reassure them, he couldn't possibly reveal these feelings.

In the eyes of his parents, neighbors, classmates, and teachers, he has always been a good older brother who dotes on, cares for, and protects his younger sister.

However, he could fool others, but he couldn't fool himself.

As he grew older, his resentment towards his younger sister deepened.

Finally, after graduating from junior high school, he secretly went to another city to take the entrance exam for a prestigious local school, without telling his sister or family.

…………………………………………………………………………

On this day, Kasugano Sora and her mother, Kasugano Anna, went out shopping for clothes, while Kasugano Mirai and her father, Kasugano Ikefumi, stayed at home.

Watching his wife and daughter disappear at the street corner, Kasugano Ikefumi turned to look at his eldest son standing at the living room door, a rare look of confusion on his face: "Mom and Sora have already gone out. Can Mirai tell Dad the reason now?"

"Why did you apply to Chiba High School without telling your parents and Xiaoqiong?"

Is the main point of this statement that you applied to a school in Chiba?

No, that's not it. The important thing is to keep it a secret from the three people in front of you!

For Kasugano Fumi, no matter where his children want to study, even if they go to so-called elite schools or international schools, their family's financial situation is more than enough to cover the tuition fees for two children.

Therefore, what he really couldn't understand was why his eldest son had kept this a secret from them.

If his eldest son hadn't told him about it last night while his youngest daughter and wife were taking a shower together, he might still have been kept in the dark until the start of the new school term.

In order to find out why his eldest son had secretly enrolled in Chiba School, Kasugano Ikefumi deliberately sent his wife and youngest daughter away today, creating an environment where only the father and son were at home.

Hearing her father's question, Kasugano Mirai closed her eyes slightly and looked down at the wooden floor: "Let's go into the living room first. I'll tell you everything Dad wants to know."

Regardless, Kasugano Ikefumi is an adult, the head of a large private hospital, and now a father of two.

In terms of personality alone, he is no longer the hot-blooded and impulsive young man he once was.

Hearing his eldest son's words, he gave him a deep look and went into the living room first.

After her father entered the living room, Kasugano Mirai stood alone at the living room door for a while before returning to the living room.

On the coffee table, my father had taken out several bottles of sake at some point and prepared a plate of smashed cucumber and boiled edamame as appetizers. The previous look of confusion on his face was no longer visible.

Seeing him walk in, he raised his small wine glass and gestured, "Would you like a drink?"

"When you're in a bad mood, drinking alcohol can be quite effective."

Admittedly, Kasugano Ikefumi did not know why his eldest son made such a choice in this matter, but when the latter stopped hiding his feelings, his years of life experience made him realize the restlessness and unease hidden in his eldest son's heart.

There is no exam required to become a parent; everyone starts on the same footing.

However, it must be admitted that some people are born to be fathers or mothers.

Kasugano Fumi is one of those people.

As a father, he did not question his eldest son about why he had kept it from him, nor did he scold or berate him to maintain his authority as the head of the family. Instead, he communicated with his eldest son as if he were having a meal with his brothers.

It must be said that his approach was very effective.

Faced with such a father, Kasugano Mirai hesitated for a moment before sitting down on the sofa directly opposite him.

He raised his glass, which was already filled with wine, and gently clinked it against his father's.

Before his father could react, he had already downed the drink in his glass.

He put down his glass and looked at the person in front of him with a smile: "Dad, you're a terrible father for encouraging minors to drink!"

Hearing the teasing and joking under his eldest son's tone, Kasugano Ikefumi smiled nonchalantly and slowly drank the wine in his glass.

Ignoring her image, she picked up a edamame from the plate with her hand, slowly peeled it apart, and put the soft, cooked bean into her mouth. As she chewed, she said intermittently, "Now... do you feel... better?"

She poured herself another glass of wine. This time, Kasugano Mirai didn't drink it immediately. She fiddled with the glass and remained silent for a long time.

Kasugano Fumi didn't rush him, happily sipping her wine and eating snacks, as if it were just a normal get-together with her best friends.

"Dad, you can tell Mom about my transfer to Chiba, but don't tell Xiaoqiong."

"reason."

"Xiao Qiong will probably beg to come with me if she finds out."

Upon hearing this, Kasugano Ikefumi looked up at her eldest son: "Are you running away from Sora?"

Kasugano Mirai hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly: "...Yes."

"Did you have a fight?"

"No."

"You have a girlfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Kasugano Mirai retorted, "Why would Dad make such an outrageous guess?"

"Xiao Qiong has gotten rid of all the girls at school who had designs on me in various ways. Where am I supposed to find a girlfriend?"

"To put it another way, if I really found it, why would I need to go to Chiba?"

This time, it was Kasugano Ikefumi's turn to remain silent.

He tossed the edamame in his hand into his mouth and slowly sipped the liquor in his glass.

After a long while, he asked softly, "Do you feel that Xiao Qiong is too possessive, leaving you with no privacy, and you want to avoid her?"

After some thought, this was the most reasonable explanation he could come up with for his eldest son's attempt to transfer schools.

However, the eldest son slowly shook his head.

"Fine, I won't guess anymore. Just tell me the answer directly in the future."

"Why did you go to study in Chiba without telling Xiaoqiong?"

"I went to study in Chiba because it's not too close to Tokyo, but it's not too far either."

"A two- or three-hour drive each way is enough to make people not want to go home normally, but if a problem really occurs, it's not like they can't come back."

"As for why I kept it from Xiao Qiong..."

At this point, Kasugano Mirai drank the drink in her glass.

Bitter wine enters the throat and causes pain in the heart.

Staring at the bottom of the cup, he said softly, "To be honest, the first time I saw Xiao Qiong, my body was rejecting and resisting her."

"Even though I really like her, my body instincts tell me not to get close to her."

Before he could finish speaking, Kasugano Ikefumi's expression had become serious and earnest. He stopped drinking and eating and listened attentively to his eldest son's heartfelt words.

“I have been forcibly suppressing this instinct all along.”

"but…"

Looking up at his father, he forced a smile: "But Dad, you should understand that suppressing it will only make the backlash more terrible."

"I don't know why this is happening, but if I continue to stay by Xiao Qiong's side, sooner or later I will not be able to suppress this instinct."

"By then, it will be too late to turn back."

In the past, if someone had told him that his body instincts were resisting getting close to someone, Kasugano Ikefumi would have just thought the other person was joking.

But after taking over the hospital from his father and witnessing all sorts of strange illnesses, he began to believe what his eldest son had said.
