Ignoring Horun’s surprise, Lily boarded the carpet. Then, she extended her hand to Lapis.

However, different from usual, the carpet was already flying at a high elevation. Even though she extended her hand, Lapis didn’t accept that hand.

Unable to just watch, Sera embraced her and like that jumped aboard the carpet. Lapis pitifully clung to her little sister with both arms and legs, while she had her eyes shut tightly. By this point, there was no sign of her dignity as the older sister.

「Aah♡Ane-sama, you’re so cute♡」

「…don’t let go,’k? …also, tighter.」

「Understood♡」

While smiling happily, Sera hugged her with more strength. Lily originally wanted to be the one hugging Lapis, but rethinking, she left it as it was, while pleasantly watching the view.

「Now, Horun-chan as well. Are you fine with high places?」

「Ah, yes, I’m fine…」

Timidly saying that, Horun boarded the carpet. Searching for a place to grab onto, she finally grabbed onto Sera’s shoulder.

「Then, let’s go. Also, we need to explain everything to Horun-chan.」

Leaving the castle behind, they soared midair.

Along the way, explanations were carried out for Horun.

Lily’s true identity. The principles behind the carpet.

The sequence of Lapis’s escape. How they had lived until now.

Then, it somehow became about Sera’s visit and the siscon—

「Ah, that’s fine. Serafi-sama is the world’s biggest siscon after all, as though it’s common sense.」

「Oh? Horun-san, you understand.」

For some reason, Sera had a smug face. Incidentally, Horun was not complimenting her. It was just that for Sera, being called a siscon was the biggest compliment.

Lily’s story reached until the part where Lapis and Sera decided to quit being princesses, leading to the present.

「I see… I’d appreciate it if you could teach me some techniques to not fail a confession to another girl.」

「…First, make sure that your partner likes girls.」

「The so called ‘Yuri’.」

「Right. Rather, I have a question, wouldn’t I be just fine?」

「Not at all? Honestly, Lily-sama is just a cute girl?」

「W-well,」

「Although, such a cute girl is groggy」

「That part isn’t cute.」

While talking, Lily gazed at her lover. Strangely, her facial expression was completely identical with Sera’s.

Having some pointless chatter, the carpet continued to fly on, eventually reaching Lily’s and everyone else’s house. As such, the problem of Sera not wanting to let go of Lapis arose, but claiming that it was her turn, Lily liberated Lapis.

Entering the house, Lily and Sera went their own way to the sofa, while Lapis went to the kitchen to prepare some tea. Horun confusedly spoke out 「L-Lapis-sama! I can brew it, though!?」, but with Lapis replying 「Horun is still a guest, so you can sit down.」, she dejectedly sat next to Sera.

「Since it has been getting warm lately, I’ll make it iced tea.」

Lapis returned with a tray holding enough iced tea for everyone.

Placing an assortment of drink coasters and straws, Lapis then took a seat next to Lily.

「Thanks, Lapis. Now then, let’s settle the terms for your employment.」

「P-please.」

To Lily who began to talk while patting Lapis, Horun replied without being perturbed. However it was looked at, that was not the attitude of an employer.

「Your work will consist of helping Lapis. Cleaning, cooking, supporting with these sorts of tasks.」

「Understood.」

「For your salary… how about this much?」

Lily wrote on a paper the presented amount of money, which was five times more than what Horun had received until the present. That amount was enough for a normal person to live on for a year’s span.

「Um… is this, for a year?」

「No, this is per month.」

「! No way, impossible!」

「Hm? Was it too little? Then—」

「No! I can’t receive that much!」

Furiously shaking her head, Horun refused. Moving in sync, her large chest also swayed. It seemed that Sera, who was sitting next to her, was watching with great interest.

「…Lily… In a normal person’s perspective… you’re giving too much.」

While patting Lily, Lapis softly gave her some advice.

While everyone was looking, the two began openly flirting.

Completely gathering Lapis in her arms, Lily buried her face in Lapis’s bluish-silver hair.

「Is that so? Speaking of which, even though you are a princess, how come you know so much?」

「Former princess. Just this much, anyone would know with a bit of studying.」

「Although it was the case that many couldn’t study.」

The former second crown princess flattered the former first crown princess. Whether she was remembering something bad, she made a sour face.

Afraid of being left behind in the conversation, Horun timidly raised her hand.

「Um… this is about my salary, but, I was thinking that a half of a half of a half of that would be fine.」

「Eh? But you never know until it’s too late, the original amount is fine.」

「Like I said, that’s too much!」

「Muu. If you keep fretting it like this, I’ll end up doubling the amount.」

「Please stop! I will be grateful with the initial amount!」

In the end, Horun snapped. The employer wanting to raise salaries, and the employee wanting to lower salaries. It was a miraculous argument.

「Then, Horun can use a guest room on the first floor. Ah, food costs and other expenses will be paid for separately.」

「…understood.」

Perceiving that it would turn end up the same if she complained, Horun quickly gave in.

From that Horun’s side, Sera, and from Horun’s from, Lapis, each looked at her with pitiful gazes.

「Well, let’s leave it at that. Since it’s a good time, let’s have lunch. Horun-sensei, help me out.」

「Okay.」

「…Sensei?」

「Horun-san is Ane-sama’s cooking teacher, after all… though you’re also more or less my teacher as well…」

「Serafi-sama, you’re being a bit too cruel, you threw a spoon」

「B-but! Only the cookies burnt! Ane-sama said they were delicious!」

「…It’ll take about five hours, if Sera cooks.」

「…Ah, ahaha. —Anyway, let’s make lunch. What’s on the menu?」

「Miso udon, Sera’s request.」

「As expected of Ane-sama! I love you♡」

「Right, I also love you♡」

With a warm atmosphere, everyone treated themselves to lunch.
