Anyway, even if the base is in this state, we still have to eat.
“Do you guys always eat like this…”
Today, I used Eve’s card to buy meat. It was a chance to buy beef, but the minions wanted stir-fried pork instead, so lunch was decided to be stir-fried pork.
I thought beef stir-fried pork would be fine, but Dusik insisted it wasn’t, so we had no choice but to go with pork. After buying plenty of pork and throwing it to them, the cooking team started preparing the stir-fried pork.
The minions were murmuring about how long it had been since they had meat, and I barely swallowed the thought that we had just had a company dinner not long ago.
Well… meat is always good, no matter when you eat it.
“Mother-body, let’s eat lunch and then head out.”
“Where’s your house?”
“Pyeongchang-dong.”
“Wow, seriously, what’s with this wealth gap?”
Some are stuck in a corner of Gwangmyeong City, underground at that, while others have the Association Building right in the middle of Gangnam, and the Association President’s house is in Pyeongchang-dong. Isn’t this just too much?
“Karin is good at making money. She even invested in an electric car company and made a lot.”
“Ahem!”
I’ve never seen it myself, but I’ve heard that Karin, like Keru, is a guardian. Keru is the guardian of the Dark Realm, and Karin is the guardian of the Light Realm.
“Even though they’re both guardians, they’re so different.”
“Well, that can happen.”
“It shouldn’t. We only have the sponsorship money I bring in, and nothing else.”
Staring at Keru, Keru flinched and hid in the corner of the sofa.
But even so, that big frame isn’t hidden. It’s not like covering your head hides everything, seriously.
“Whatever, let’s eat. There’s a lot prepared, so let’s eat.”
“Usually, there’s not much prepared, but you’re telling us to eat a lot?”
“There’s a lot prepared.”
“Really, how is it that only your mouth is alive?”
Although my body has become a woman, I haven’t lost my skills as a former sales ace. I’m confident I won’t lose in a battle of words against someone like Eve, who acts before speaking.
“But it’s tasty. The cooking team must be good, huh?”
“Of course. Well, when you have to make do with limited ingredients, your cooking skills naturally improve.”
This is from my experience. It’s not wrong. When you have to make do with limited ingredients, you have no choice but to experiment.
“Hey, Dusik, thanks.”
“I’ll enjoy it.”
After the meal, Dusik came into the office with two cups of mixed coffee. He handed us the coffee and sat on the sofa.
“So, are you staying at Eve’s place tonight? With Kabe?”
“Yeah, that’s the plan. And tomorrow, I’ll visit the Magical Girl Association to check it out.”
I’ve already talked to Eve about it. I know the outside of the Magical Girl Association building, but I’ve never been inside, so I have no idea what it looks like.
In about a month, we’ll have to move in there, so I need to know the layout and how big it is.
I also need to check out what’s around.
“Wow, this coffee is good. You got the water ratio right, Dusik.”
“Hehe, I paid attention.”
“Where’s Kabe?”
Kabe, who was munching on meat and rice next to me earlier, was carried out by Dusik as soon as the meal ended.
“She’s taking a nap.”
“Already sleeping after eating?”
“She woke up early today.”
We slept at a motel called a hotel. We woke up at almost 8, but I guess that’s early for Kabe.
“Is that so? Well, maybe. Who’s with her?”
“Keru is watching over her.”
“Yeah.”
“Mother-body.”
“Huh?”
Eve, who had been staring at our conversation, suddenly called me. I glanced at Eve while sipping my coffee, and she was grinning.
“Are you sure Kabe isn’t your real daughter? She looks just like you.”
I narrowed my eyes.
“What nonsense are you spouting now?”
“No, I mean, you take care of Kabe so naturally. It’s like you’re taking care of your own daughter.”
I was about to say, “Are you going to keep spouting nonsense?” but upon reflection, Eve wasn’t entirely wrong.
Kabe isn’t my real daughter, but I naturally worry about her. If she’s not in my sight, I wonder where she is. I need to know her whereabouts and who’s with her to feel at ease.
“…Well, since I created her, she’s like my daughter. So what? Is that weird?”
“No, it’s just nice to see.”
“For that to be credible, you should do something about that smug face first, Kabe’s dad.”
“Who, who’s the dad?!”
“You. You.”
Every time Eve picks a fight with me, she’s the one who ends up getting upset. I wonder what’s up with the Association President.
“Dusik, Auntie, I’m going! Keru, I’m going too!”
Is she still missing some baby teeth? Her pronunciation is off. Does she have baby teeth and permanent teeth? I should check Kabe’s mouth when we get to Eve’s place.
Holding Kabe, who was waving energetically at Dusik and Keru, I also waved at them.
“I’ll be back. I’ll probably be back tomorrow evening. This should cover dinner tonight and lunch and dinner tomorrow.”
“Oh, sis. Isn’t this Eve’s card?”
“Eve, I’m going to use your card.”
“Yeah. Buy some beef.”
Eve readily agreed. I grinned at Dusik.
“Eat moderately. We may not have money, but we have pride. Got it?”
“Got it, sis. Have a safe trip. Kabe, take care!”
“Okay, Auntie, I’ll be back!”
Kabe clung tightly to me and kept waving at Dusik.
“Kabe, we’ll be back tomorrow. Don’t worry, let’s go.”
“Okay, Mom!”
Eve was already sitting in the back seat. I sat Kabe in the middle and fastened her baby seatbelt, then sat next to her.
“You’re quite skilled.”
“Why again?”
“Taking care of Kabe.”
“Hey, are you going to keep spouting nonsense…”
I was about to say, “Are you going to keep spouting nonsense?” but then I looked down and saw Kabe staring up at me with wide eyes.
“…She’s my daughter. Right, Kabe?”
“Yeah, I love Mom.”
I poked Kabe’s cheek and sat down, fastening my seatbelt. The car silently started moving.
No matter how I look at it, Keru is wrong.
It’s not that evil is suppressed, but perhaps it’s good that’s suppressed.
The prejudice that good is poor and evil is rich is so deeply ingrained in me.
When Eve said we had arrived, I opened the car door and stepped out to see a palace-like house. Even considering my limited vocabulary, it really was like a palace.
The iron gate, which seemed to be the main entrance, automatically opened as Eve stood in front of it. Even after entering the main gate, it took a while to reach the front door.
“Wow…”
“Is this Dad’s house?”
“Yeah. Why are you so surprised by this?”
Honestly, it’s surprising. This must be the house of a tycoon. A well-maintained garden with various trees and landscaping, and a three-story Western-style house.
“Wow… how much of the common people’s blood is in that…”
“Don’t talk about people like they’re corrupt officials.”
I grinned at Eve, who was frowning. I don’t know what battles were fought in the past, but since Eve clearly played the role of a protector of humanity, this level of treatment might be natural.
Well, we’re the villains after all.
From humanity’s perspective, we’re the villains who need to be defeated.
If we live luxuriously, that would be strange too.
“Welcome, Miss.”
“Yeah, we have guests today. I’ll take care of it, so everyone can leave early today.”
“Yes, understood, Miss.”
There were also some servants.
“Wow.”
“Kabe, is this your first time seeing a house like this?”
“Yeah. Is this Dad’s house?”
“Of course. It’s Dad’s house.”
“Wow. Dad, Dad.”
“Yeah, Kabe. What?”
“Can Mom have this house?”
Our Kabe is amazing!!!!
I was clapping in my heart, and Eve, not knowing if she understood, smiled and answered.
“How about Kabe living here with Dad?”
“No. I want to live with Mom.”
Kabe pouted, which was quite amusing from the side.
“Mom, Kabe needs to pee.”
“Okay, Eve. Where’s the bathroom?”
“I’ll take her.”
How big is this house that you need to escort someone to the bathroom? I followed Eve, who was carrying Kabe, as she walked briskly.
The bathroom was quite a walk. How big is this house?
There were corridors and rooms on both sides. Maybe we should just live here instead of remodeling the Association President’s office. Is that too much of a thief’s mindset?
After letting Kabe into the bathroom, Eve and I waited outside.
Without Kabe as a common interest, the conversation between us stopped. In the awkward silence, Eve spoke up.
“Why does Kabe call me Dad?”
“Because the prettier one is Mom.”
“No, seriously, think about it. They say kids see things purely. What does she see?”
“Whether she sees it or not… I’m just prettier, and no offense, but your chest and back are similar, so you look like a long-haired dad, maybe!”
Eve stomped on my foot. She was wearing heels, and stepping on my foot with them hurt so much I almost cried.
But my recovery is good, so the pain subsided quickly.
“Are you going to keep talking about my chest? What’s so good about being big like you?”
“It’s nice to look at? And nice to touch. Want to try?”
“Get lost, you crazy woman.”
Amid our bickering, Kabe’s voice came through.
“Mommy- wipe me-!”
She’s still too young to handle the bathroom by herself. I went in and helped Kabe.
“Now, wash your hands.”
“Okay.”
The sink was a bit high for Kabe to wash her hands alone, so I lifted her up. After washing her hands, she clung to me, so I carried her out of the bathroom.
“Hey, Eve.”
“Yeah?”
“Since we’re on the topic, ask her directly.”
“Ask what?”
“Why she calls you Dad.”
“Hmm… should I?”
Eve leaned in close to Kabe. Her face was full of smiles.
“Kabe, actually, Dad is a girl too. So calling me Dad is a bit… can’t you just call me Auntie?”
“No. Dad is Dad.”
“Why?”
“Because Dad is Dad.”
“Well, Dad is a man, right? Auntie isn’t a man.”
“Auntie is a girl. Dad is a man.”
“Huh, what?”
Both Eve and I were stunned. Is Eve a man? Is Kabe’s eyesight bad? While we were confused, Kabe stuck out her hand.
“Look at this.”
A black sphere appeared in Kabe’s palm.
“Eyes that see the truth. Now remove this trap and show yourself before me.”
With a voice I couldn’t understand, the black sphere flew towards Eve.
-Whoosh…!
Before Eve could react, the black sphere enveloped her and slowly dissipated.
A loose T-shirt with a stretched neckline.
Sweatpants tied with a string, knees sticking out.
Messy hair tied back.
A tall, lanky figure.
A man who looked nothing like Eve, but rather quite different, stood before us.
Moreover, what was even more surprising was that I recognized this man.
“You, you…”
“Mom, look. It’s Dad, right?”
I was shocked.
Eve, revealing her true form, was in chaos.
Kabe, innocently shouting, “Dad, Dad!”
Chaos was born here.
