Ch.48 A New Home. The Anxiety just from the Information Beforehand

"Ahh... Umu. The return deadline is next Tuesday ja. Do remember to return it."

"Aight!"

"Come on, next guy, hurry up and come on over!"

Two days later, after school.

I am diligently working in the library.

Why, you ask? Well, 'tis obviously because I am part of the library committee ja.

Also, 'tis my turn to be on duty this week.

The job of a library committee member is quite simple.

The job involves only two things: accepting and returning books, and arranging returned books.

Well, there is the monthly process of unboxing newly arrived books and such as well, though.

There are no other specific tasks, though if I had to mention one, it seems there are occasional errands to buy stuff. I am not talking about supplies, but rather snacks to keep stocked in the study room.

To be honest, I do not have the rules and all that memorized because they are a bit of a hassle.

Even so...

"Kuh, what is this troublesome situation ja?! And why is there a long queue in front of me noja?!"

In front of me was a long line of people waiting impatiently for their turn to borrow books.

There were barely any people yesterday!

"We've never had so many people waiting to borrow them all at once before... I see. I guess it's the power of Mahiro-chan. As expected of a country with so many lo〇con."

"What are you talking about with that straight face noja?! Or rather, stop just watching and help me out!"

"That's impossible."

"Why!?"

"If I were to swap with you, a riot might break out."

"That is not a thing."

"No, please look at the students in front of you."

"...I see, I understand."

Observing the people in front of me, I could see a murderous aura emanating from them, seemingly carrying the message, "I will not accept anyone other than the head of the library committee."

Indeed, this could easily lead to the librarian being killed.

"So, please do your best, Mahiro-chan."

"...I know not why, but it makes me really uncomfortable when you call me Mahiro-chan."

"Haha. Don't worry about it. It just feels weird to call someone who looks like a lo〇 'san'."

"I see... But the number of people just will not go down. No matter how many times I accepted their book borrowing, they just keep lining up endlessly, 'tis like hell."

"Considering that, your hands are moving very precisely. That's amazing. You've only just started, but you can already do it without looking."

"...Well, that is what happens when you have done it for 100 people !"

In fact, It has been like this for almost an hour now!

How on earth did this happen noja?!

"Hahaha! I guess so!"

Damn it, he is enjoying this as if 'tis none of his business...!

"Next up, please!"

"Argh! No end! There is no end to thiiiiis!"

Being on the library committee is seriously hard work!

◇◆◇

"Finally, the end... T-this is so tough..."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mahiro-chan."

"Damn... I am incredibly exhausted..."

Unusually, I put in some serious effort to serve the people waiting to borrow, and after doing that for about 30 minutes, I was finally released. I threw my upper body onto the counter and collapsed limply.

Why should I, someone who devotes all my energy to being lazy, have to do something like this...?

"Here you go, it's hot cocoa."

"What?! Cocoa?! ...Wait, Aria?"

"Hey there, Mahiro-kun. Do you want some cocoa?"

I was suddenly addressed, and there stood Aria, smiling.

I noticed that she is holding a mug of cocoa in her hand, and she offered it to me.

"Of course I will take it."

I like cocoa ja.

"Uhuh, when you're tired, you definitely need something sweet!"

"Umu. Well, I will gratefully accept it. Gulp, gulp... Puhaa. Umu, this sweetness is so soothing to my tired body..."

"So, what do you think? Don't I look like your husband right now?"

"No, in this case, should it not be 'wife'? ...Although, since we are already in this relationship, it matters not which it is."

"That's true!"

I wonder what it is.

Aria's carefree and cheerful personality is so refreshing to watch...

She might be the only decent one among my husbands.

...Well, that innocent and carefree side of hers... manifests in a bad way in bed, and I end up having a hellish time.

"So, what are you doing here? I thought you were preparing for our move?"

"Well, I haven't been attending this school for very long, and I realized I'd never been to the library before. So I came to visit."

"I see. But why cocoa?"

"Just a little while ago, I noticed Mahiro-kun looked tired while you're working diligently, so I explained the situation to the librarian and he let me use the back room."

"I did not notice..."

"That just shows how focused you were."

That might be true.

But to think she anticipated I was tired and made me some hot cocoa... what a thoughtful husband.

I hope the other 3 will take a lesson from her.

...Especially when Mizuki and others think I am tired,

「Mahiro-chan, you must be tired! Well then, please sleep on my lap! In fact, please! Please rest your cute head on it! I'll be taking tons of pictures while you sleep!」

She will probably say something like that, but then she will probably ask for a lap pillow.

As for Miho... I wonder? I cannot really think of anything, or rather, what can I say...?

But, Mashiron is like that, is she not? She will probably try to mess with me.

For example……

"...Opening!"

"Nmu."

Like that, she would appear out of nowhere and steals a kiss from me...!

"Puhaa, what is with that suddenness ja!?"

"...Heya. Came to play."

"'Came to play' my ass! What do you mean, kissing me out of nowhere noja?!"

"...Tasted like cocoa."

The way she licks her lips is somehow... erotic.

This fellow has a huge gap between her appearance and her personality.

"Well, because I just drank hot cocoa! No, that is not it! What are you doing kissing in the library?! You are the student council president, are you not?!"

"...Mahiron. Please be quiet in the library."

She put her index finger to her lips and gave me a warning.

"You are the one saying that?!"

"...I wasn't being noisy."

"You are the root cause of it all!"

"Um, Mahiro-kun. You have to be quiet in the library..."

"That's right, Mahiro-chan. This is the library. As a librarian, you have to be careful, and more importantly, it's not good for the head of the library committee to be making so much noise..."

"Huh? What? Me? Am I in the wrong? And what are you all grinning about noja?! Especially you, Librarian Yamoto! You are enjoying this situation, are you not!"

"Hahaha. Oh, no, don't say that. I'm just enjoying this sight. Nothing more, nothing less."

"Damn, I want to punch that...! I want to punch that smile!"

I want to punch that smug, infuriating smile on the librarian's face!

The urge to hit someone explodes inside me!

But...but! If I hit him here, I feel like...I will lose!

"...Haaah. Never mind. Anyway, Mashiron yo, what do you want ja?"

"Wow, you managed to control that impulse well. Excellent!"

"Shut up!"

The thought of having to work with such an irritating man for a whole year makes me feel depressed... I am not going to go bald from stress, am I?

"...So, what is your reason?"

"...Finished student council work for today."

"Fumu, and then?"

"...The preparations for moving are already complete."

"Fumu fumu. And?"

"...Bored, so I came to visit Mahiron. But you're working."

"Well, I am a library committee member, after all."

"...I thought it wouldn't be fun if I just showed up normally, so I decided to surprise you with a surprise kiss."

"Are you an idiot?!"

What kind of thinking leads someone to think of trying to kiss someone unexpectedly?

That is an idea I could never have come up with.

"...I like kissing. Especially kissing Mahiron."

"I have been thinking about this lately... You are definitely a kiss addict, are you not?"

"...Kissing, feels good."

"I will not deny it, but... I never imagined you were such a carnivorous woman..."

"...Mahiron is a gentle, introverted girl."

"I'd say she's more of a 'prey' type of girl, wouldn't you agree?"

"... You guys, did you think of me as prey?"

""Of course."''

...Of course, huh.

But even so, am I being bossed around by my husbands?

I cannot help but feel that these people are taking away all of my freedom.

I hear 'tis tough even with just one person, but 4 people...

"By the way, Mahiro-chan, what exactly do you mean by moving? And also, what is your relationship with these two people...?"

"Oh, that is right, I have not told you. Well, these two are my husbands."

"...Ah, so you increased the number."

"That is what happened."

"I see, I see... So, I guess Mahiro-chan set up the flag and then fulfilled it, is that right?"

"...Did you see that scene?"

"No, I was just guessing that Mahiro-chan might do it that way."

Perhaps, am I really that easy to predict like that?

...Maybe I am.

"So, what about the move?"

"To simply said: Mizuki's father has started saying that since we are married, we need a new home... To be honest, I know nothing about what is going to happen, so 'tis pretty scary."

'Tis that father we are talking about here.

He will probably prepare some kind of outrageous house.

He might even put a shelter that could withstand a nuclear bomb. Seriously.

"If the chairman of the Uishi Group is involved, it seems like it will be a truly magnificent property."

"Umu... Mizuki explained the situation to me, but at the same time she said it would take a week to build. And that week has long since passed. So if 'tis still not finished..."

"It looks like it's gotten bigger."

"Umuu..."

As a result, even now, nearly three weeks later, 'tis still not finished, so 'tis impossible to predict what kind of building will be constructed.

I dare not understand what rich people think.

By the way, this is what Aria, Mashiron, and I were talking about earlier when we were preparing to move.

Apparently, it will be completed soon, so Mizuki told me to start preparing for the move noja.

Therefore, Miho, Mizuki, Aria, and Mashiron went home yesterday and have been making preparations for moving.

'Tis scheduled to be finished tomorrow!

We were told about it on Sunday night, and the 4 of us, excluding Mizuki, including myself, were extremely surprised.

After all, our new home will be ready soon.

Everyone was excited about what kind of house it would be, but... I was the only one with a rather gloomy expression.

As I mentioned earlier, the person who spearheaded the construction of this house was undoubtedly that lo〇con's father. And that father is also the same.

Moreover, now that our family includes not only me but also a lo〇 student council president named Mashiron, it seems like they are going to get even more out of control...

My guess is that the estimate of one week for construction was based on the assumptions of just me, Miho, and Mizuki, and when two more people joined, they had to make some improvements, which is why it took even longer.

Moreover, both the 3rd and 4th girls are beautiful, and the 4th one is another lo〇 ja. (TL: I wish I don't have to censor this much)

In that case, there is no way those perverts would not get serious.

I wonder what they are planning to do.

"A new house, huh? That's exciting, isn't it, Mahiro-kun, Mashiro-san?"

"The fear comes before the excitement, but... 'tis alright, I suppose."

"...I'm looking forward to it."

Well, Mashiro just does not show it on her face, but she loves having fun.

"Oh, now that you mention it, Mizuki-chan said something when Mahiro-kun was at the gathering."

"What is it ja?"

"Well, I guess it was something like, 'Of course there's an indoor pool... but do we really need that room...?'"

"......Huh? What? Can we have an indoor pool in our new place?"

"I think so! If that's the case, we won't need to go to the pool anymore!"

...Whose celebrity house is this?

I rarely hear about houses like that in Japan.

"Well, whatever. We will find out tomorrow."

"That's true!"

"……Un."

'Tis pretty much confirmed that there's an indoor pool, but there should not be anything more than that. Umu. There should not be!

Alright, time to get to work on the remaining tasks!

...At that moment, I had absolutely no idea that I had just set up a flag.
