Chapter 542: Izu
“Prince…?”
Shishio murmured and thought about his family identity. Instead of a prince, his family was a marquess. Some people might not know, but following the Meiji Restoration, many court nobles in Kyoto started to regain their status. However, their status was abolished with the 1947 constitution.
Shishio was the descendant of a famous samurai clan and part of the original 24 marquesses when this system was created. It was also the reason why his grandfather could become the general of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, and many of his uncles and relatives took important positions as police, bureaucrats, or famous financial services companies.
Shishio was from the main line of the family, straight from his grandfather, who was the head of the family, so it might not be wrong to call him a prince. Yet he smiled and rubbed Keika’s head, then said, “I am not a prince, but I am a demon who is going to punish a naughty child! Come on and enter! Your body is all dirty and sweaty. Ask your sister to take a bath with you.”
Keika didn’t feel afraid and only laughed happily.
Yet Miya Ashihara didn’t want to lose and also stuck into him.
Just when they were about to go, Shiina also grabbed the hem of his shirt and said, “Shishio, let’s take a bath together.”
“…”
Keika and Miya looked at each other, then looked at Shishio, but before they said anything, everyone pretended nothing happened and walked inside the villa since, more than that, it would be dangerous.
The villa was spacious. It was covered with a gate from the outside, and no one with the authorization was able to enter. If they entered, it would be counted as a crime. There were also many zelkova trees covering the yard. It was at night, so they might not be able to see it, but there were also flower parks inside.
The villa had a modern Japanese design. It was done with a combination of concrete, wood, and a large glass. There was only one floor in this village, but it was so spacious that it might take a long time to tour around.
“Shishio, it is only me, but there’s a pond here,” Mea asked speechlessly while looking at the pond in front of her. While it was a pond, it wouldn’t be weird to call it a lake. After all, she could also see land in the middle of it, which made her speechless by how grand this villa was.
“There’s even a boat there.” Maiko was in a daze, looking at the small boat on the pier on the miniature lake.
If they looked carefully at the lake, they would also be able to see various other trees, such as cherry blossoms and maple trees. If they came in spring or autumn, they knew they would be able to see the beautiful scenery of the bloom of sakura or the red sea-like maple tree.
This was just on the outside, but what about the inside?
The light inside was already turned on as if this place had already been prepared beforehand.
“Um, Roberta-san, are there any other maids here?” Hina asked curiously and slightly nervous. She knew Shishio was rich, but this was too rich, right?
“No.”
“I see…” Somehow Hina sighed in relief.
“They have been sent out, and we’re the only ones here, but Shishio-sama has a lot of maids,” Roberta said.
“….” Hina somehow knew that Shishio had a big fetish for a maid.
As they entered, while the two little girls were excited since they didn’t expect to stay in such a huge place, the others were quite reserved since this place was bigger than they had imagined. However, they couldn’t be blamed since they had been living in Tokyo.
Unlike Tokyo, the land price in Izu wasn’t that high, so it was natural for his villa to be so spacious that it even had a private beach.
“Hey, hey!” Nana was already dumbfounded by everything before she asked, “Shishio, is that a yacht?” While she was happy that the beach was connected to the villa, she wasn’t sure what to say when she saw a yacht harbored on the pier. While she often saw yachts in the movie, it was her first time to see them, and she had never thought she would see one!
“If you want, we can use it tomorrow,” Shishio said.
“….” Everyone.
Futaba stared at Shishio and just didn’t know what to say. Her family was rich, but compared to Shishio, it might be nothing somehow.
Everyone suddenly thought about how Keika and Miya called Shishio a prince, but somehow they didn’t feel it was weird to call him a prince. Instead, somehow, they felt calling him a “king” would be more appropriate.
“Do you want to take a bath or have dinner first?” Shishio suddenly asked.
This question somehow threw them off, but then they decided to take a bath since they had just eaten many local snacks along the way. They also hadn’t felt hungry yet.
“Roberta, can you take them?” Shishio asked.
“Yes, Shishio-sama.” Roberta gave a polite bow before she brought everyone to the public bath for the female.
Shishio looked at Kiriya and asked, “Sensei, do you want to take a bath too?”
“…Okay.” Even Kiriya must admit that he was speechless at that moment.
Izu was famous for its hot spring since there were many sources of the natural hot spring in this area.
Shishio’s villa naturally had a natural hot spring on it.
There were two public hot springs for a female and a male. There were also many other private ones where few people could enjoy a private bath where they could gaze over the moon dazzled on the top of the sea. The stars shone brightly in the night sky, scattering around like natural light. There were also natural rocks with various unique shapes, enhancing the natural beauty of this scenery.
However, the only function of those rocks wasn’t for beauty. Instead, they could become natural protection where one wouldn’t be able to enter the villa area, so they could enjoy their trip peacefully.
Still, while Shishio didn’t say anything, many of his bodyguards protected the outside area in case something happened.
Shishio wasn’t sure, but he just had a feeling that something was about to change his peaceful life to 180 degrees.
While the girls’ area was quite rowdy, Shishio and Kiriya enjoyed the quietness together, watching over the sky.
“I somehow want to stay here instead of staying in the movie crew’s hotel,” Kiriya said while letting out a long sigh. In the beginning, he didn’t think too much and thought about staying with the movie crew since he was quite interested in the movie. However, when he saw this villa, somehow he wanted to stay in this place. After all, it was his first time staying in such a villa.
While Kiriya was quite rich since he was also a writer, it didn’t mean he could squander his money to build this type of villa.
“Do you want to stay?” Shishio asked.
Kiriya thought for a while, then asked, “When are you going to visit Sakurajima-san?”
“I’m going to visit her tonight,” Shishio said frankly.
“Then, I’ll go with you to the movie crew’s hotel. I can smooth it out, and you can sneak in there,” Kiriya said simply.
Shishio patted Kiriya’s back and said, “You can stay tomorrow. There’s a small house on the side.”
“Oh? Really?” Instead of staying in this spacious villa, Kiriya was more interested in the small, lonesome hut. He could somehow imagine himself writing something while hearing the sound of the rain. He was a writer, after all, so he had this type of ideal or dream in his mind. It was just that he didn’t expect his dream would be achieved when he came to his student’s villa.
As for staying in the main villa, Kiriya didn’t think at all since he knew what kind of man this guy was. Instead of being unable to sleep because of the loud voice, it was better to walk away.
Still, Kiriya must admit Shishio’s body, and his thing was so huge!
“…Don’t look at me like this.” Shishio sighed and wondered why he invited Kiriya to take a bath together. The only thing he was glad to be was the fact that Kiriya wasn’t gay.
Probably.
Still, Shishio wasn’t sure why, but he could tell that Kiriya wasn’t that interested in relationships or even a woman in general. Yet was it a good question to ask on this occasion? Obviously not.
So neither of them talked to each other and stretched their bodies as long as they could while letting out a comfortable sigh, enjoying their luxury trip.
After their bath, they decided to make dinner. They decided to cook dinner outdoors, right on the bonfire, while they watched the sea.
The rustling sound of the waves hitting the sand might calm people down, but everyone was excited, talking to each other while preparing dinner.
“By the way, where’s Shishio?”
“If Shishio doesn’t join, the food won’t be good.”
Even if they prepared the ingredients and did the preparation, Shishio had to take the finishing step, or else the taste of the food wouldn’t be good.
“Nee-chan, where are you?”
“Onee-chan?”
Keika and Miya also realized that their sisters seemed to have disappeared, which made them worried and on the verge of crying. After all, they were in an unfamiliar place, and the only people they knew had gone. They didn’t even see Shishio, which made them feel scared.
.
“Ah, what’s wrong, Miya?”
“You’re not a child. You should be able to take care of yourselves, right?”
When Keika and Miya saw their sisters, they trotted toward them and hugged them. Still, they looked at their sisters, and somehow their expression was slightly strange since their faces were too red.
“Did you feel sick, Onee-chan?”
“Should you rest?”
The two became worried about their older sister.
However, Saki and Miu told them not to worry since they were alright. After all, there was no way to tell their sisters what they had been doing previously.
On the other hand, Shishio had slipped and joined everyone in preparing dinner. However, he could see their gazes were on him, which was quite hurtful. “Okay, who is hungry?”
They looked at him and thought they were going to swallow him later.
Anyway, they enjoyed the first day of their Izu trip.
