Chapitre 297: Visiting the Minamiya Residence
Ultimately, Otonokizaka's open house ended, and before departing, each middle school student filled out a survey to be handed over to the relevant department for analysis.
As long as there were a sufficient number of prospective students, the closure of the school could be delayed. Moreover, if there were enough potential students, there was even a possibility of completely reversing the decision to shut down.
Looking at the smiling students, Homura felt uncertain about which of his two main missions would be completed first.
One of the missions depended on the results, and as for the fame mission, he believed it would be accomplished as soon as 'Fate/stay night' was released.
Following the open house, the Otonokizaka students had no classes, so they could either return home early or engage in club activities.
Honoka and the others naturally decided to leave with Homura to his home.
After discussing the situation with their families, Muse's girls left Otonokizaka with Homura.
"Come to think of it... among those who went to the hot spring villa, weren't we the last group to visit Homura-kun's home?" Umi suddenly recalled.
"Yeah, Kirino and her group visited earlier than us." Kotori nodded.
"Now that you mention it... I'm kind of looking forward to it!" Nico added. "Moreover, we can get a sneak peek at the new work, which is pretty amazing!"
"Haven't you all forgotten that you're members of Another Dimension too?" Homura sighed. "What's more, you'll have to do voice acting later. Knowing the information about the new work is only natural right?"
Upon hearing this, Nico and the others looked embarrassed, realizing they had indeed forgotten.
"...Can we know too?" Yukiho asked, pointing to herself and Alisa.
"Of course." Homura smiled. "You're both officially part of Another Dimension now."
His words left the two little sisters stunned.
They had initially wanted to ask about the upcoming new work, but they now realized that their situation had dramatically changed.
Were they becoming something like reserve members?
Realizing this, Yukiho and Alisa were a bit nervous until Homura's next words shook them out of their daze.
"For yourselves, and for me, have a little confidence, okay?"
Homura raised an eyebrow as he watched the two's reactions.
"You know, I personally chose and invited the members of Another Dimension, so you'll do just fine. Honestly, don't worry about it. Even if I say this now, I doubt you'll fully grasp it right away. Just focus on learning the techniques I'll teach you, spend some time with everyone, and you'll adapt in no time."
After hearing his reassurance, the two little sisters finally calmed down and began chatting with the others now and then on the way.
Eventually, they arrived at the Minamiya residence.
"It's so big!"
Yukiho couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the size of the house and its courtyard.
"It's definitely bigger than the hot spring villa!" Honoka was also a bit awed.
Meanwhile, Nico turned to look at a house across the street. It wasn't as grand as the Minamiya residence, but it wasn't small either.
"Is that Elf's house over there?"
Seeing the size of the house, they were once again reminded that Elf was truly wealthy.
"Come on in, everyone. I think Megumi and Nanami will take a while to return."
Homura beckoned the group inside, diverting their attention.
"By the way, you all go on inside first. I'll go get some slippers."
Slippers were a must, considering more than ten people were visiting at once.
In the storage room, Homura retrieved a pile of animal-themed slippers that girls tended to favor.
As Homura observed the slippers, he remembered that they had originally been prepared for Sagiri.
With so many pairs, when would Sagiri ever wear them?
Upon returning, everyone was waiting in the entryway.
Once they had all changed into slippers, they finally got their first look at the inside of the house!
"It feels like it's even larger after coming in..." Kotori scanned the surroundings, sighing.
"I think it's pretty normal..." Maki chimed in.
She could easily imagine that the Minamiya family, much more powerful than her own, would naturally have such a large house.
Shortly afterward, Homura came over with a heap of food and drinks.
"It's big, I admit that, but it felt lonely when it was just Sagiri and me."
No one seemed to ask why his parents weren't at home, or why there were no servants around.
They all had some idea of what was going on.
Meanwhile, Yukiho and Alisa, who were completely in the dark, didn't bother asking. They figured they could always ask their big sisters about it when they had the chance.
"But it's pretty lively now, isn't it?" Elf laughed. "Ever since you formed the circle."
"Yeah, actually, the creation of this circle had something to do with that too." Homura also smiled. "Bringing like-minded people of the same age together, letting everyone's talents shine to the fullest—it makes us happy, and it makes a lot of other people happy too. Why wouldn't we do it?"
"Speaking of which, Homura-kun, it feels like your circle is just like a school club... just without the constraints of school, and it spans across various schools." Nozomi chimed in enthusiastically.
"Well, it was intended as a school club at first, but then we changed it to a circle..."
Homura explained, then turned his head to look at Haru, who was sharpening her claws on the scratching post.
"Actually, the first one to join was Haru."
Upon hearing this, the girls smiled slightly.
Truly, what Homura said wasn't wrong at all. Although he first invited Eriri, the moment Haru went home with him, she had already become a part of his big family.
"I always feel like this scratching post is going to be worn out again..." Homura scratched his head as he saw the scratching post.
"Nii-san... isn't this the third one?" Sagiri rolled her eyes. "Can't you buy something of better quality?"
Homura: "…"
He was somewhat amused and exasperated with himself.
Did his sister think he was being stingy?
In truth, the scratching post that Nana got for him was one of the best. But who would have thought Haru would get so good at it?
"...It's not about the quality since this scratching post is the best one, it's just that Haru is too powerful."
Homura's mouth twitched as he spoke.
Due to everyone's strange gazes on him, he felt the need to explain.
"Are you serious?" Elf widened her eyes. "The best one wears out this fast? Haru-chan hasn't even used it much, right?"
"Nana gave it to Haru as a gift." Homura shrugged.
"Nana?" Elf couldn't recall who this 'Nana' was for a moment.
It couldn't be helped.
She hadn't met Nana and had only heard of her, after all.
"Nana-chan is the one who adopted Haru-chan's little brother." Sagiri explained to everyone. "Plus, she also owns a pet shop."
"But if Nana-chan gave it, it should be the best one..." Sagiri muttered. "How could it wear out so quickly?"
"Like I said, Haru is way too powerful." Homura repeated. "I don't think ordinary people stand a chance against Haru now."
He guessed that when Haru unleashed her full combat power, ordinary people couldn't even touch her; she was simply too fast and could easily outplay them.
Such a situation was expected since Haru's level was already high enough.
Meanwhile, upon hearing Homura's words, the girls exchanged strange glances, smiled slightly, and didn't take it too seriously.
As Homura looked at their expressions, he just shrugged.
'It's fine if you all don't believe it... as long as the little one stays cute.'
