Chapter 18
Right at the moment when the door was being pushed open, I glanced around the interior of the wooden house; other than a bed, what remained was an extremely big table, and on top of the table was full with those stuff you see on TV science experiment projects like beakers and containers.... within test-tubes boiled colorful liquids that gave off a "gu~lu~gu~lu" sound.
And Asaka nee-chan was sitting on the chair, concentratingly focused on the things before her, she hadn"t even notice that Hiroto had opened the door. Her left hand was holding a bluish liquid test-tube, as she was about to pour it slowly into another purplish liquid test-tube that she held onto her right hand. Whilst doing so Asaka nee-chan was being extremely careful, as her sweat on her clean white forehead sparkled underneath the light of the wooden house.
"Is there any kind-hearted people here, can I have something to eat please.....................!?!?! Asaka nee-chan!!!!!!!!"
Noticing that the person right in front of me conducting some suspicious-looking science experiments was actually the missing Asaka nee-chan, I gave out a cry of shout.
"Ototo-kun~"
Hearing my voice, Asaka nee-chan raised her head to look at me, maybe because she was too excited to see me, which led to her hands shaking up the test-tube contents, resulting in that the entire contents of the bluish test-tube had been poured into the test-tube with the suspiciously purply liquid.
"Oh c.r.a.p." Asaka nee-chan turned around and panicked.
Thereafter, the test-tube on her right hand which had two kinds of colors mixed into it emanated a puff of black gas which went into Asaka nee-chan"s nose, and in an instant, Asaka nee-chan who breathed in the black gas suddenly closed her eyes and fell down from her chair. I quickly dashed forward, carrying the unconscious Asaka nee-chan from the floor, while vigorously shaking her shoulders in an attempt to wake her up, to no avail.
Looking at the unconscious, eyebrow-frowning Asaka nee-chan, I became extremely agitated and anxious; as I repeatedly shook Asaka nee-chan"s shoulders, tears slid down my face onto her clothes as I became worried for Asaka nee-chan.
Seeing that Asaka nee-chan still remained unconscious, I carried her up onto the bed, held her hands and kept calling out her name again and again; hoping for a miracle to happen, that she would suddenly wake up.... but even as I shouted for Asaka-nee chan until my throat became hoa.r.s.e, nothing happened still.
"Hiroto, do you need any help?" Suddenly from behind my back a familiar voice appeared.
Turning around and seeing the owner of the voice, I startledly exclaimed: "Mosuki-san,............ why are you here."
Kitagawa Mosuki leaned by the doorframe with a cold expression while still hugging her arms across her b.r.e.a.s.t.s; the bright silverly moonlight shining onto the long stockings on her legs somehow tempts my vision not to move away it"s sight from it.
"Why must I not be allowed to be here?" Kitagawa Mosuki continued leaning onto the doorframe as she spoke while looking at me, holding onto Asaka nee-chan"s hands. I acted being innocent as I said,
"Whatever then, I don"t have time to bother why must you be over here, since now Asaka nee-chan is unconscious, I must take care of her." I dried my tears using my sleeve, not wanting to let others see me crying.
"Tch tch, even if you tended to her for a hundred years, your Asaka nee-chan would never wake up; if by just some "taking care" would undo the witchcraft from the Takeno family, then the Takeno family that had lasted

for a glorious hundred years already would have collapsed since a long time ago.
"Witchcraft??????? Mosuki-san you knew this is witchcraft, so you must definitely know how to undo it, I beg you, please save my Asaka nee-chan." I felt like as if I have grabbed onto a glimmer of hope; kneeling on the floor as I looked at her with pleadingly eyes, hoping that she would save Asaka nee-chan.
Kitagawa Mosuki then acted as if she had heard something extremely funny; she laughed loudly as she stood up from the doorframe, walked slowly to in front of me, then looked downwards onto me, while using her thumb and index finger to pinch my cheeks. Staring at my eyes as she closened the gap between her face and mine till we were within one or two centimeters apart, she spoke every word very slowly: "Save her? But today you rejected me to send you home! Right now I ! am !very ! unhappy ! "
"Alright-alright-alright, then next time after school I"ll always follow you back home." I said while kneeling, using a tone of utmost sincerity to plead with her.
"Too late, I"ll be doing something else long ago already." Kitagawa Mosuki let go of her hand pinching my cheeks, wrapped her arms around her b.r.e.a.s.t.s and sat onto the side of the bed where Asaka nee-chan is currently lying and looked down onto me haughtily.
"Please, I"m begging you, please save Asaka nee-chan, she"s my only relative left remaining." I knelt on the floor and did a dogeza towards Mosuki-san.
(TL: "dogeza" is when someone kneels onto the ground, then placed their heads entirely onto the floor, begging for forgiveness;)
Suddenly Kitagawa Mosuki smiled as she seemingly thought of something fun, she grinned as she said: "Since tou-san had planned for you to be my arranged fiance, and since you also doga-ed, then I"ll reluctantly help you just this once, but......."
"But what, as long as I can save Asaka nee-chan I"ll do anything." Seeing as Mosuki-san purposefully left her sentence trailing midway, I quickly spoke.
Kitagawa Mosuki then sat in a cross-legged position, stretching her stocking-covered feet towards my face as she said: "If you want to save your Asaka nee-san, then how about kneeling onto the floor like a little dog and start licking my toes? If you"ll do a good job to make me pleased then I"ll go save her~ oh, I forgot to mention this, after being struck by the witchcraft from the Takeno family for a month without undoing it, your Asaka nee-chan will then die~"
After hearing this sentence, the me currently kneeling onto the floor got lost in a train of thoughts, whether I should keep my pride, or to abandon it for the sake of saving Asaka nee-chan.
"Tch tch tch, Hiroto clearly said that he would do anything to save Asaka nee-chan, but when confronted with just a simple task of leg licking he cowardly backed off, really, such....... indolence."
"Alright stop it..... I"ll lick, but promise me that you"ll commit to your words." My voice trembled, then I leaned forward, gradually placing my face close to her feet covered in black stockings.
