All eyes were on Shizuka as she kept trembling in her stance.

The knowledge of her dear little brother having a girlfriend became too much for her, her brain started malfunctioning, then came the bodily functions as she almost started ripping the mansion paper to shreds unknowingly. Fortunately Kyle had noticed her little shift on movement. ​​

"Hey, hey! Shizuka-nee! You're going to rip the papers off!" Kyle shouted, hoping it would break his sister out of this stupor, still unaware that the source of it was he himself.

Hearing his words, Shizuka stopped trembling, consciousness returning, she stopped her ripping motion, as she understood the importance of said papers. Taking some time to gather herself, her aura changed and she returned to that cool intellectual vibe that she naturally emitted. "Ahem- so mind explaining the full details to me now Kyle?"

Kyle knew he was in trouble, like Hina, the rest of his family members only called him 'Kyle' when they were either angry or in a serious mood. Looking at Shizuka's stoic expression… yeah, he was in big trouble. Pushing down his nervousness, he proceeded to explain the details regarding the acquisition of the mansion. He couldn't tell the truth to his sister, so he mixed in some lies to smoothen the details.

Shizuka was pondering silently, having heard the explanation, she was sure his brother was hiding something from her. Reading through Kyle was something effortless for her, but she didn't want to force him to reveal his secrets, prodding too much into her brother's life would only result in a backfire.

"...Sigh* alright fine, I know that you're lying to me, but I'll accept that half-assed explanation of yours for now..but please tell me the truth soon."

Kyle smiled at his sister's words, glad that she was so understanding, he was aware how ridiculously intelligent and analytical his sister was. He lied for now, but figuring everything out for her would be easy, it was just a matter of time when. 'I guess I can't be compared to real geniuses.'

Shizuka, who was silent till now, asked a pressing question. "By the way, who is paying for the tax? I'm pretty sure it isn't Oba-san because her income isn't sufficient to pay a yearly tax for this house...wait is it you? So how did you even get the money? Are you perhaps in possession of stocks from a big company or something of the sorts?"

Kyle was flabbergasted hearing her words, shocked to say the least, his sister had hit the bullseye. He didn't know how, he didn't even say anything, but her sister's guess had been right on the money. Her analytical talent was outstanding to the point of being terrifying.

Not wanting to lie anymore, he pulled out another pile of documents, of course he did it the same way he had done with the house documents. The documents held the proof of him owning the Shinomiya Group's shares.

"I kind of figured that you would ask that, so here this is the reason why I could pay the taxes of this house." He pointed at the stack of papers at the table.

Shizuka, a bit startled, started rummaging through the new set of documents her brother pulled out. Reading it, her expression became weirder and weirder by the second, finished reading she could only adorn a shocked and confused expression as she gazed at her brother.

Her brother suddenly felt like a stranger to her. The same little brat she had seen as they grew up suddenly became unfamiliar, riddled in a fog of mystery. 'How? How did he achieve this?'

She kept thinking on, using her brain to its utmost limits, thinking through all the clues and everything she had observed in the short time after she met K times… everything leading to one plausible conclusion.

"Kai-chan, do you.. perhaps have someone who helped you to achieve all this, a powerful backer of your own?" Kyle shivered hearing her words, he was afraid, the little bundle of secrets that he was hiding from everyone was about to get exposed by her sister at this rate.

He didn't know.. how her sister had suddenly come to that conclusion, but she was too close to the truth for his comfort. The backer his sister was talking about was his system, and the ones behind it who even granted him that privilege. He was glad that she didn't have any idea about what kind of backer it was, otherwise… he didn't know what he should've been doing in that kind of a situation.

Lying was futile now, he was sure, so he just bluntly admitted to.her vlaimes. "That's right, is there a problem?"

"As I thought, mind telling me who it is?" She queried with a stern look, waiting for his answers.

"No, they prefer to be hidden if possible." It wasn't a lie, when he had first gotten the system, there was a set of instructions in it's interface. Written in a code he couldn't understand, but when it was voiced it came out as a warning. To not let anyone figure out the existence of the system, or else there would be severe consequences.

"Is that so? Then forget that I asked. Then can you give me a room to stay? I will temporarily live here for a month since the company I'm working for has only allowed me to have a vacation for just one month, this is my first vacation ever since I started working, so I wanted to enjoy this to the fullest."

"Alright, follow me Shizuka-nee." He stood up from his seat, Shizuka stood up along with him and added teasingly. "Also, I haven't forgotten your girlfriend let her come along, I'd like to know her more, but I can't believe that someone as beautiful as her would be willing to be your lover, I can't really imagine her falling in love with someone like you."

Before Kyle could retort back, Tohru came in between, her face riddled with anger as she growled at Shizuka, keeping herself in bay because the other person was the sister of her beloved. "But I did fall in love with him! He had a lot of good points with him! So don't talk to him like he's an unattractive person!"

Tohru was angered, cold anger rushing in her veins as she looked at Shizuka with a deadly gaze. Docile or not, no one was allowed to mock her boyfriend, not even his sister. If the girl in front of her wasn't related to her boyfriend, she would've already killed the bitch, but she reigned herself in.

Shizuka was surprised to say the least, she was expecting a reaction but not one this aggressive, his girlfriend practically shouted at her and berated her, seeing her reaction Shizuka could tell that Tohru really loved her brother, which proceeded to further sour her mood. "Tsk, my bad then."

Both of them definitely heard her clicking her tongue, Tohru now confused from her sudden shift in behavior pondered carefully. 'Is she annoyed? But why? No wait could it be..?'

Immediately she looked at Shizuka and seeing her soured look, she was able to estimate why she was acting like that, she didn't want to jump to a conclusion however, she needed to be certain for that, hence she remained silent. But, if her assumptions were to be true..

The dragoness of Chaos looked at the Intellectual beauty, her expression one of complication and complex feelings as she kept silently gazing at her.

Kyle, after remedying the matter, guided Shizuka to a room he had chosen for her to live in during her stay at the mansion; on the way to their room he was surprised to find out that Tohru and his sister seemed to get along quite well.

Being both the brother and boyfriend of the respective individuals in question, he was rather happy on seeing them get along. But, he would've really appreciated if they could only stop talking about him. Throughout their journey, he had been the main topic of their discussions. He was surprised to find out that it was Tohru who had first approached her and started asking questions about his past self, his sister suddenly got interested and talked along, which led to the current dynamic.

While Tohru was talking about his present self, his sister talked about his past, interchanging information about Kyle and placing them to fill the gap in their knowledge.

"This is going to be your new room Shizuka-nee." Spoke Kyle as they arrived at the allocated room.

Shizuka inspected it for a bit, nodding at the end as she spoke in a satisfied tone. "Not bad, this is slightly better than my room in america! I like this room, Kai-chan, starting from today I own this place!"

"Yeah, sure I'm going to the living room, so you should start unpacking your things."

"I'd do that later, but first~ do you want to sleep with your Onee-san? Fufu~" In the bed Shizuka, no only in her dress shirt posed in a seductive manner, unbuttoning some of the buttons of her shirt, letting Kyle feast his eyes at the deep cleavage her busty melons created. Her hair now undone, sprawled about in the bed, so did her hands as she looked at Kyle with an inviting stare.

She looked extremely seductive in that pose, any man would jump at her if they were to witness such a scene, ravaging her to their heart's content. She had done the execution right, she just tempted the wrong person. Kyle was her brother, even tempted he would never do something like that towards his own sister. "Geez stop saying nonsense, and you're actually teasing me when my girlfriend is near?"

He glanced at Tohru, who just gave him a forced smile, making himself smile wryly too. Meanwhile Shizuka pouted, disappointed at his words and downtrodden at seeing his attention was still at his girlfriend. "Fine! Get out of here I don't want to see your face!"

Seeing his sister, acting like a child, Kyle smiled, a sense of nostalgia adorning his face, reminding him again that it really had been a long time since he was able to be in his sister's presence. "Sure, sure, Tohru do you want to follow me downstairs?"

"No, I'll stay and talk to Shizuka-san."

"Alright? Then I'll go first." Kyle felt like, if he left, they would just continue on discussing about him, but he still left them to their own devices. On his way to the living room his phone started buzzing.

It was a message, he unlocked his phone and found out that the notification had come from the group chat he had joined a while back, looking at the message he was astonished. "What the? Is this for real?"
