Diary Of Service Club, Helping The Elf Princess

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Iris Comes Home



"Aegis, why are you still not relaxing? Or are you worried that I will secretly plot against you?"

Feeling that Aegis' body was still tense, Hachiman helplessly pinched her firm, round, and slender thigh.

Had she been a guard for too long? Aegis had even forgotten that she was an elf princess. How could she be so dense?

"Of course not."

Aegis hurriedly shook her head. If the President wanted to do something to them, he had countless opportunities long ago and wouldn't need to wait until now.

They were very strong, having mastered magic, so there was no need to be so cautious.

What she was truly worried about was other demi-humans discovering the President's uniqueness and trying to attack him when they weren't paying attention.

"Right now, we're at home. Everyone here is one of our own, so you can relax completely, Aegis."

Hachiman embraced Aegis, whose body was still tense and stiff, and lightly bit her translucent, crystalline earlobe, whispering to her with a chuckle.

Aegis, Iris, and Shion—these three girls had all shared intimate moments with him. They might even be together tonight, so he didn't mind displaying affection in front of them.

"Mm..."

Seeing Komachi and Shion looking over curiously, and her sister Iris watching with a teasing smile, showing no intention of helping, Aegis felt her ears go soft, and her body lost its strength.

She could only let Hachiman hold her in his lap, caressing her slender waist, as she shyly responded.

It seemed the President really liked her. What he had said to her before was true.

He even had no reservations about being so affectionate with her in front of others...

Always feeling that her body was too robust, her speech too blunt, and that she wasn't attractive in any way, Aegis buried her head in Hachiman's neck, gently inhaling the breath of life emanating from him. She felt both joy and shyness in her heart.

Iris's benefactor was also her benefactor. This was... just too wonderful...

———

Aegis felt a little uneasy being held in Hachiman's arms while talking, but with his hands wrapped around her waist, she couldn't forcefully break free. She could only sit on his lap with flushed cheeks.

Since Komachi and Shion were still watching from the side, Hachiman didn't do much else to Aegis. Seeing that she had resigned herself to the situation, he loosened his arms slightly from around her slender waist and placed his hands on her thighs, which were wrapped in black tights, symbolically preventing her from getting up.

"Onii-chan, what's going on with Aegis-san? Why was she standing the whole time just now?"

Komachi curiously looked at Hachiman and the elf sister he had suddenly pulled into his arms.

Even though she felt her brother was becoming more and more of a scumbag—she didn't even know how many girls he was involved with—he wouldn't be so impatient as to harass this elf sister right in front of her, right?

From her perspective, this elf sister also seemed to like her brother a lot and listened to him. Even though she was blushing shyly from being pulled into his lap in front of everyone, she showed no signs of resistance.

"Aegis is Iris's older sister. She was the previous Elf Princess. But now, in order to protect her sister Iris, she has taken on the role of her guardian."

Hachiman stroked the texture and elasticity of the black tights, watching Aegis' delicate, flawless face slowly turn red, and explained at an unhurried pace.

"Aegis-san is Iris-san's guardian? I see. Then, Aegis-san, are you good at fighting?"

Komachi suddenly understood and then continued looking at Aegis with great curiosity.

No wonder Aegis-san had been standing the whole time. Earlier, Aegis had stood stiffly with a stern expression, exuding an aura that repelled strangers. Even her usually lively and enthusiastic self had hesitated, unsure of how to start a conversation.

"Komachi... 'Guardian' means protecting someone. Saying 'fighting' doesn't sound quite right..."

Shion tugged at Komachi and whispered a reminder.

The word "guardian" sounded prestigious, but saying "fighting" lowered the level significantly.

She was the Elf Princess' guardian and an Elf Princess herself, yet Komachi was asking her if she knew how to fight...

"Fighting? I am indeed quite skilled in combat, but I specialize in close combat with dual swords, unlike Iris, who has mastered many spells and can gracefully attack enemies from a distance."

Aegis didn't find the question inappropriate. Guardians, after all, mainly protected Iris from harm, but they also needed to fight.

However, even though she excelled in combat, compared to the famous elven mages and archers, her preference for close combat and the use of dual swords made her quite an outlier. Especially considering her status as an Elf Princess, this kind of fighting style was completely at odds with the elegance expected of elven royalty.

"Aegis has always felt that she isn't very well-liked. Even when I tell her she's beautiful and that I like her, she still thinks I'm just comforting her.",Hachiman noticed that Aegis' words implied a distinction between herself and Iris. Realizing that she was unconsciously dwelling on how she was perceived within the elf race, he smiled at Komachi and the others and pointed it out.

"My figure is so robust, and my legs are so thick. Of course, I don't look very good...",Aegis blushed and looked down at her arms and legs, feeling embarrassed.

She knew the President liked her. From his current actions, it was clear that he wasn't just sympathizing with her because of Iris or her status.

But from an objective standpoint, she truly didn't think she looked good.

Compared to her, Iris's slender and delicate figure was much more attractive.

"How is that not good-looking? This is an amazing body.",Asougi Shion looked enviously at Aegis' well-endowed figure.

Although she had developed better than Komachi, who was still flat as a board, compared to this self-proclaimed "robust" elf sister, she seemed much smaller.

"Yeah, you're not thick at all. Look at Onii-chan—he can't keep his hands off you, always sneaking a feel.",Komachi glanced at Hachiman's hands resting on Aegis' black-stockinged thighs, gave her brother a look of disdain, and then quickly comforted Aegis.

"Are you really not lying to me? I feel like my arms are ugly and not as nice as Iris's...",Aegis still felt that they were just trying to make her feel better. Iris's arms were slender and fair, looking very beautiful, while hers would reveal muscles when she exerted strength.

"This is a strong and beautiful body. Where's the ugliness in that?",Hachiman, exasperated, pinched her equally fair-skinned arm and said irritably.

Aegis and Iris had different training regimens—one focused on close combat, the other on ranged attacks—so, of course, their bodies would differ.

Her arms weren't as slender as Iris's, but they weren't bulky or ugly either.

Iris's waist was slim and soft, her legs were long and curvy, and her chest was impressively full. Rather than calling Aegis' figure thick, it would be more accurate to call it voluptuous.

In fact, her slightly more filled-out body was even more comfortable to hold than Iris's petite frame.

If she wasn't overthinking things herself, then it must be that the elves' aesthetic standards differed from those of humans.

"If you keep saying you're not good-looking, I'll have to give you some extra attention tonight.",Seeing Aegis still brooding despite their reassurances, Hachiman suddenly tightened his embrace, pressing his lips against her delicate white ear, whispering a low "threat."

"Mm...",Hearing Hachiman's "threat" and feeling his warm breath on her sensitive ear, Aegis bit her lip and refrained from insisting that she was unattractive.

Although she enjoyed the President's affection for her and felt a fiery passion she had never experienced among the elves, she wanted Iris to be the one who fully enjoyed this love.

She was a negligent elven princess. Even though she was still working hard for her race after stepping down, she didn't want to steal Iris's spotlight over something like this.

For Iris to truly live up to her title as the current Elven Princess, the President should focus on taking care of Iris and making sure she gets pregnant as soon as possible.

Iris silently watched her sister, Aegis. Seeing her finally yield under the President's 'comfort,' she revealed a quiet, satisfied smile.

She didn't plan to say much at this moment. Just now, to avoid making her sister overthink, she had refrained from joining the conversation.

She had always understood her sister's concerns, but Aegis was stubborn. She treated all of Iris's comforting words like they were passing wind, never taking them to heart.

Now, with the President's firm intervention, her sister had instead shown a softer, shyer side.

As expected, her sister also needed some support. Tonight, the President should properly reward her~

Thinking about how she and her sister would be spending the night at the President's house, Iris quietly made some plans.

Seeing Aegis finally settle down and stop overthinking after his 'threat,' Hachiman continued chatting with them about other topics.

He had originally wanted to steer the conversation to liven up the atmosphere, but Komachi and Iris were both quite talkative. Under their guidance, the reserved Shion and the slightly shy Aegis gradually opened up. With everyone chattering away, he couldn't even get a word in.

"It's about time to make dinner. Komachi, did you go grocery shopping today? If not, we should head out and buy some now.",As they chatted while sipping sweet drinks, Hachiman glanced at the time and asked Komachi.

There were usually some ingredients in the fridge, enough for him, Komachi, and Shion to make a meal. But since Iris and Aegis were visiting, naturally, he needed to prepare something more elaborate.

"Nope. Tomorrow's a holiday, and I know a supermarket that's having a grand opening sale, so I was planning to do a big shopping trip then.",Komachi shook her head and took out a supermarket flyer.

Since she managed the household budget, and her brother hadn't mentioned guests coming over today, she and Shion hadn't gone out to buy groceries.

"In that case, let's head out and get some ingredients. Iris, Aegis, do you have any food preferences?",Asougi Shion turned to Iris and Aegis, asking softly.

"I don't think I'm too picky. Most human vegetables are edible, but I prefer lighter flavors.",Iris thought for a moment before answering.

"Oh right, do you eat meat?" Komachi suddenly asked. According to legend, elves were all vegetarians, preferring fruits and vegetables while avoiding meat.

"Mm… Most elves generally don't eat meat, but there aren't any strict rules forbidding it.",As she spoke, Iris hesitated and glanced at Aegis.

Komachi and Shion followed her gaze.

"I… eat some meat…",Feeling everyone's eyes on her, Aegis's cheeks turned red, and she answered shyly in a small voice.

Although there was no strict rule banning elves from eating meat, since everyone else was vegetarian while she ate meat, she still felt embarrassed.

"Then let's go out and buy some groceries. We'll get both vegetables and meat, and if we find good seafood, we can get some of that too.",Hachiman chuckled at Aegis's reaction without saying much. Hugging her curvaceous body, he stood up from the sofa.

Aegis's habits differed significantly from those of most elves, so it was no surprise that she had these concerns.

But that was fine. He would let Aegis know just how charming and lovable she truly was.

"Ding-dong~"

Just as Hachiman and the others were getting up to prepare to leave, the doorbell at the Hikigaya residence rang.

"Hm?",Hachiman looked toward the entryway, feeling a bit tense. Could it be Kaede coming over to settle scores with him?

That was unlikely, right? Although he had done something bad to Kaede at noon, making her mutter that she wouldn't let him off and that he'd pay for it tonight, given Kaede's personality, she'd probably wait until tomorrow to recover before coming after him.

"Hmph~",Komachi glanced at her brother and the two girls clinging to him, Iris and Aegis, pouted, and let out a soft snort before running off to check the situation.

'Scumbag brother. Despite knowing that Kaede-neesan is staying next door, he still brought these girls over for the night—this is definitely going to end badly.'

Iris and Aegis were aware that Hachiman's childhood friend lived next door; they had even met Kaede before at the Service Club.

However, they also knew they were simply being 'assisted' by Hachiman and had no intention of competing for a higher position, so they didn't feel nervous at all.

Seeing how calm Iris and Aegis were, Asougi Shion gradually calmed her own nerves as well.

She was Hachiman's sister, after all. If Iris and Aegis weren't worried, why should she be?

Before long, Hachiman and the others saw Komachi returning from the entryway, carrying a large bag of groceries.

Behind her was a short-haired girl with purple hair, also carrying a large bag of groceries.

"Vignette? What brings you here?",Seeing the purple-haired girl, Hachiman quickly stepped forward to take the groceries from her hands.

He hadn't expected Vignette to show up at this time with so many groceries—it had really given him a scare.

Well… maybe not a complete scare. After all, everyone here was on his side and could help smooth things over. They could just say she came for dinner or was staying over at Shion's place.

As long as he didn't outright say he planned to spend the night with Iris and Shion, Kaede wouldn't suspect anything. The only one he'd need to bribe into silence was Suzu.

"It's dinner time, isn't it? I figured you'd probably come over and invite me to eat again.",Vignette placed the groceries in the kitchen with Hachiman, putting the perishable items into the fridge as she spoke.
