   The dining hall on the first floor of the Seseragi Inn . Occupying one table, Ardis and Kyrill was having their late lunch .

   And at the table’s side, there was Rona pretending to be a normal dog while leveling five persons worth of food . Kyrill had round eyes the first time he saw Rona but, in the end somehow convinced with the mysterious justification of, 「Well, it’s Ardis-san after all……」 .

   Although Ardis felt a little strange at the omnipotent excuse of 『Because it’s Ardis』, it’s not like he could gain anything even if he drilled down the reason . Thinking that there’s no downsides since Kyrill is fine around Rona because of that, Ardis decided to get into the topic without thinking much more about that .

「I need a home tutor . 」

   While biting down the Black Rabbit Pie, Ardis answered . The dishes that the inn owner, Melir’s father make are unlike the Strategic Weapon born from his daughter, they were fulfilling and most importantly gave a sense of relief .

「Home tutor……is it? 」

「There’re children with special circ.u.mstances staying in my house . I was looking for a tutor for them but, it’s really hard to find someone suitable for the job . 」

「But I’m a mere merchant apprentice you know? I mean, I’m going to enroll in the academy to study magic but, I haven’t received a good education, I don’t think I have anything to teach though . 」

「It’s not like I’m asking you to teach magic or anything . I just need you to teach them common knowledge and vocabularies . 」

「Aah, if that’s so……, but then there’re many others who you can find in the capital right? There’s no way there isn’t any suitable ones . 」

「I said they have circ.u.mstances alright . Age are twelve, and they’re both girls . 」

「I don’t see any problem with that though? 」

「What if I told you they’re twins? 」

   Ardis just said it simply but, Kyrill jumped up in shock .

「Tw――!? 」

   Kyrill let out a loud noise accidentally but, suddenly covered his mouth and looked around . Fortunately, there aren’t many guests around, since there weren’t anyone looking at himself, he seemed to sigh relievedly .

「That’s the case . I can’t really hire anyone as their home tutor can I . Kyrill can at least tell that much right? 」

   Seeing Kyrill had calmed down, Ardis continued . Albeit his stepsister, his admired Nee-san is the one half of a twin, there’s no way Kyrill will discriminate twins .

「……That’s some circ.u.mstances alright . But wouldn’t Ardis-san teach them be enough? 」

   Kyrill’s question was justified . But―― .

「Despite looking like this, I’m not often around in my house, so it’s difficult . 」

   Ardis couldn’t keep staying with the twins forever .

   In fact, Nere as his servant was looking after the twins as his subst.i.tute . Normally thinking, she would be taking the educator role as well .

「I mean, there’s someone looking after them but…… . Uhh, there’s still some problem . 」

   With an inexplicable expression, Ardis seemed hesitant to speak of it . That might’ve been funny . A suppressed laughter came from Rona who was lying under the table .

   Two hours after that . Ardis and the two others who had left the Seseragi Inn is now heading towards the house in the forest .

「I didn’t think I would be entering this forest again . 」

「Don’t worry . We’re not going that deep today . 」

   Kyrill probably recalled the time four years ago . With Kyrill surveying the surroundings anxiously, he had followed behind Ardis closely . Come to think of it, Ardis recalled the time when he first met Kyrill .

   The twins that were eight four years ago are now twelve . They’re just about Kyrill’s age when Ardis first met him . Comparing the present twins now with the past Kyrill, Ardis felt the twins’ childishness once again .

   Without ever having a chance to enter the town, it can’t be helped that they don’t have friends of similar age, it might be that they were too treasured . The twelve-year-old Kyrill was already able to cross the country border, hire mercenaries and even daring to enter the forest with countless demonic beings lurking .

   Is something like that even remotely possible for Fillia and Riana now, even if leaving aside the fact that they’re twins .

   There wouldn’t be any good outcome if it continues like this, Ardis had begun to think like that . Seeing the children in the town, Ardis had felt the twins were more childish . When was it that Ardis started thinking about the twins’ education .

   The trigger was their speaking . There was a change in the way they talked .

「Ardis . Did you bring something today――? 」

   It was this year when he started noticing there are weird suffix with their innocent but unique speaking style .

   He was just putting it off before but, the decisive factor was the people of 『Bright Stars of White Night』visiting a few months back . It was when the two twelve years old twins making a strong face and said, 「You are ――」, Ardis as the acting guardian was looking for a hole to dive in .

   The reason was obvious .

「Fillia . There’s a lack of grace in the way you eat . There is no good if you so choose not to correct it . 」

   Even if Ardis was the one providing shelter for the twins, he couldn’t be with them at all times . In that sense, Nere was the one who accompanied them to longest .

   They are living in a forest far from any human presences only by themselves . And the twins still had many things to learn, especially in their growing period . Naturally, Nere’s influence would be huge .

   In this regard, it can be said that their honest personality backfired . By the time he realized, the twins were speaking in Nere’s fas.h.i.+on .

「Who are you young man――? 」

「Fumu . You are Ardis’s companion―? 」

   Ardis and Kyrill who arrived at the home was met with Fillia questioning the new presence and Riana with curious eyes . They had both grown in the course of four years, their childish face had already shown signs of maturity .

   They didn’t have the fear facing others like before, they would even welcome guests that Ardis brought over sometimes . Although their adorableness didn’t vanish through the span of time, Ardis felt a little pity at that recently .

「Fillia and Riana is Riana and Fillia―― . 」

   It was because Nere’s way of speaking had corrupted all of it .

   Nere who looks like an ideal maiden but once her mouth opens, she wouldn’t hold back in anything . Without discriminating the twins, she would disperse the demonic beings in the forest, she would clean up the house, and even her cooking is the best .

   Although she was the perfect person to take care of the twins, Ardis started thinking differently after her way of speaking caught onto the twins .

「That’s quite the way of speaking……」

「……Fillia is the left one, Riana is the right one . 」

   Kyrill was expressing his opinion with confusion while Ardis held his temple and introduced the twins .

「Fillichan and Rianchan is it . I’m Kyrill . Nice to meet you . 」

「Umu . Good seeing you―! 」

   It’s good in a way that they aren’t afraid meeting someone for the first time . At least, they could greet……kind of . Nevertheless, the way they speak cannot be left alone .

   In a few more years, they would be grownups and would be able to live on their own, it would be bad if it continues like this . Even if leaving aside they are twins, they are still sticking out in a way .

   It might not be too late to fix that habit now . Hoping such, Ardis was looking for a tutor for them .

「Well, it’s like this . I will leave their education in your hands . 」

「Certainly, the way they speak……, it would be a trouble if it rooted . 」

   After meeting with the twins in person, Kyrill seemed to understand the graveness of the problem .

「As a bonus, they don’t know much about the world’s common knowledge . It was alright until now but, they would have to face the outside world in the future too, it’s a good time to teach them . 」

「But, if so――」

   Kyrill’s gaze switched to the woman preparing tea in the kitchen . With her graceful movement as she poured the tea, it was a figure that screamed n.o.bility .

「Wouldn’t she do fine? 」

「Aah……, you thought so huh . 」

   But Ardis’s reply wasn’t positive . As they were having this exchange, Nere had brought over five portions of tea . After glancing Kyrill with her sky colored eyes for a single moment, she turned around and face Ardis .

「My master . Since you had been conversing with honored guest for some time, I’m sure master and honored guest are already thirsty by now, how about some drinks? 」

   Kyrill’s eyes became round .

「Here . Guests shouldn’t be reserved . 」

   Nere’s way of speaking which was unexpected for Kyrill made him speechless as he turned around and faced Ardis . It seems like the clever Kyrill had already grasped the situation without explaining anything .

「That’s how it is . 」

「……I understand . 」

   An hour after that . Ardis and Kyrill had organized the details regarding the period and compensation of the request, it wasn’t difficult for them to reach a consensus .

   In fact, Ardis’s compensation that was offered was an absurd amount, for Kyrill who needed money to attend the Mariules Academy, there wasn’t anything better than this .

   He had more things to take care of than other home tutors but, still it was at a price at least five times more even when it’s only teaching common sense and basic knowledge, there’s no reason for him to refuse .

   Well, for Ardis, it was an amount taking account into the fact of making Kyrill keep the secret, and it wasn’t a large expenditure anyways considering the sum that Ardis and Rona are able to rack up with subjugation requests .

「On the afternoon of my rest days, how about that? 」

「Yeah, it should be fine for the time being . 」

「For the time being? 」

   Kyrill tilted his head .

「Let’s have you teach them for an hour for the time being, and the leftover time can be used on Kyrill’s training . 」

「Huh? Training? Mine? ……For what? 」

   Hearing the unexpected word, Kyrill’s expression was not without question marks .

「What are you saying . I’m around for a while but, I would be going out eventually, Kyrill would have to come here by yourself you know? 」

「He? Eh? …………EEEEH!? 」

   Kyrill who finally understood Ardis’s meaning stood up in surprise .

「It’s natural right . It’s not like I can fetch you here and there every time . It’ll be troubling for me if you can’t handle at least one or two Ractors by yourself within two months . 」

「Alrig……, wait, that’s impossible! 」

「It’s fine . You will get used to it soon if we train seriously . 」

「Eh, no, a……」

「……Well, you might be on the edge dying for the first few times though . 」

   Leaving aside Kyrill which had completely lost his speaking ability, Ardis was muttering something disturbing softly .
