chapter 36

“What has truly happened?”

She looked towards the ceiling while drinking coffee .

“My house is wealthy . ”

“Yeah, I know . ”

“And it’s a distinguished family since the old times . ”

“Yes, I know that, too . ”

“Basically, there are national treasures . ”

“National treasures?”

“Yes, national treasures managed by the head of the Abeno family . Katana’s like— Masamune and Muramasa, have you heard of them?”

“They appear in games a lot . I know them . ”

“So, there were some swords like those in my family . By the way, all of them are Japan’s ultra prized exorcist items . Well, that’s why they’ve been managed by us, however . ”

「……？」

“And so, Lela Sakaguch is currently in Japan, right?”

“There’s no other Japan or city than this . ”

“She’s Vatican’s special unit . She’s good enough for a channel . Religious people have enormously deep pockets… Within 10 minutes of handing her the items she has contacted her homeland and deposited the money in the account . I trusted writing to her to make money . No, she’s able to skillfully write kanji . ”

“What do you mean?”

She looked towards the ceiling with a distant look, again .

“Vatican doesn’t have many weapons of the katana system . Is it the Dominions? Their angel cloths have abnormally increased in numbers . Dominion’s mass production plan has been realized and the world’s balance had been wrecked even America is furious, however leaving that aside . Thanks to the Dominions increasing the equipment is not enough . They’ve been given fake relics and such however, compared to the real relics they’re nothing but toys . ”

“Senpai, could it be you…?”

“Fufufu… there were things to be sold and then there were buyers . And I knew where the national treasures were . Well, it became necessary . ”

Breaking news was streaming on the coffee shops TV .

The subtitles were in big red letters—

Theft of national treasures in the Midori-ku ward of Yokohama city in Kanagawa prefecture!? The stolen items are not less than 5!?

That was written .

“You… did you do it?”

“Yeah, that’s right . ”

Abeno-senpai made a huge smile .

“Wasn’t the security terrifying?”

She laughed *Fufufu*

“The skill Enemy Sense is amazing . I did not think that I wouldn’t be noticed by anyone . ”

“Your idea was brilliant . Up to this point the Vatican is neutral however, but if we’re talking about sides then they’re the enemy to senpai, right?”

“Abeno family told me in the start to pick a fight . You shouldn’t worry about that . ”

Well, that’s probably right . This woman… has been forcefully judged to death .

“By the way, won’t you end up being chased by Japan’s exorcist organizations? You’ve stole and sold quite a lot of the national treasures, right?”

“It’s all right since I’m backed by the Vatican . I’m not going to their side however, we can talk a lot and Japan won’t be able to easily interfere with me . ”

And I moved my gaze to the TV .

A haggard bearded dandy in a suit and a woman wearing a kimono were being interviewed .

Both were relatively beautiful for their age however, they had dark shades under their eyes and looked like they were about to collapse at any moment .

“By the way, they are my father and mother . ”

“Father and mother!?”

“Yeah, usually they’re not on the news but this time they have to make a proper announcement . Well, my branch of the Abeno Family has crumbled . The real estate in front of the station which gives tens of millions of yen has been taken and also their bank deposit has been confiscated . Father from now on… he’ll live as a priest in an isolated island in Kagoshima and his hourly wage will be 700 yen . ”

Hourly wage 700 yen… Nowadays, even high school students make a bit more than that .

“By the way, a shabby house that nobody has lived since it has been constructed 150 years ago was prepared for them so the rent is 0 . There’s also a kitchen garden, so if Mother uses the kitchen garden then they can eat… It’s just some trouble . ”

“Senpai, is that okay? Having their lives from celebrity to now fallen?”

“Yeah, this is not good . Not good at all . ”

She smiled and interrupted me .

“That’s right . It’s not good . It’s too lenient . There’s no way I can be satisfied with them just having some trouble with necessities . Please look at the starving children in Africa . How come my ultimate filth of parents… are allowed to live better lives than innocent people!? There’s no way I can consent to that! Basically, I’ve become a hater of real estate income in the past several days! Naturally it’s highly welcomed for yourself however, it’s a complete story if you’re not fated to it! It’s disgusting! Don’t make light of life! Unemployed income should be taxed more! Don’t drink dom perignon! It’s not a joke you bastards!”

Aah, this person is an oni .

And then, she was honest about her feelings .

Just a few other day, a member of the family has been earning a stupid amount of money by throwing everything to a real estate agent and getting rent from the building owner and even without any risk of real estate managment… And in an instant they’ve collapsed…

I’m amazed at this Grand Reversal of Fate .

Rather, making enemies of people like her… is the greatest trouble .

I swear in my heart that I should never make an enemy of this woman .

“So, what will senpai do from now?”

“I have purchased the apartment on the top floor of the tower block in front of the station . It was quite priced due to me being a highschool student and name . Well, I’ve seen through that much, naturally I stole my sister’s equipment… And the national treasures at my cousin’s family . ”

She secured her residence fast .

In summary, her income is just like the earlier talk .

Rather, she didn’t just steal her family’s treasures but her cousin’s treasures, too . That family will crumble too, probably .

May god help them…

Well, leaving them aside…

“Basically, everything has been settled . ”

She shook her head slowly .

“There’s still one more important thing to do…”
