Near noon, the sun was already hanging high in the sky.
Hikari also left Ino Shrine and headed toward Miyuri's house.
These past few days, because he had been busy with matters concerning the Jinno family and the Asakawa sisters, he had somewhat neglected Aunt Miyuri.
So after leaving Ino Shrine this time, Hikari went straight to Miyuri's home.
On the way, he also sent Sayako a message, asking her to come over as well.
He had said before that he would help Miyuri and Sayako clear up their resentment.
Today he happened to have time, so better now than later.
Under the blazing sun, Hikari arrived at Miyuri's courtyard gate.
As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw two familiar, charming, and stunning aunts.
"Hikari-kun!"
"Hikari-kun!"
Seeing him come in, Miyuri and Sayako spoke in unison and hurried over together.
Sayako was wearing a very beautiful red spaghetti-strap dress today. She had originally draped a white shawl over it, which covered most of the scenery.
But perhaps because she was indoors and the weather was hot, she had taken off the shawl, making her look very cool and refreshing.
Not only were her round fragrant shoulders and delicate collarbones exposed, but there was also an extremely deep snowy cleavage.
Below that, her slightly raised lower abdomen and straight, slender legs were filled with the unique charm of a mature woman.
Perhaps because Sayako was dressed so beautifully.
Miyuri had not worn her usual simple pajamas either, but instead a slightly sheer black lace slip dress.
As a nightdress, the fabric was naturally less than Sayako's gown, making it look even cooler.
Although it didn't look as refined as Sayako's, it carried a lazy, homey feeling, making one want to wrap an arm around that slender waist beneath the skirt and pull her into a tight embrace to cherish her properly.
But at this moment, these two mature beauties, each with her own charm, were competing to crowd around Hikari, both tightly hugging one of his arms and pulling it hard toward their chests.
"Hmph! I grabbed Hikari-kun's hand first, Miyuri, don't snatch him!", Sayako glared at Miyuri.
"Do you even realize whose house this is? Making a fuss on someone else's territory, Sayako, aren't you ashamed?", Miyuri shot back without backing down.
Seeing the two gorgeous aunts, each beautiful in her own way but ready to quarrel the moment they met, Hikari felt a bit of a headache.
"Aunt Miyuri, Aunt Sayako, stop arguing for now. Sit down first. I have something to tell you."
Hikari pulled Miyuri and Sayako to sit on the sofa.
Although they followed his lead, both still tightly clung to one of his arms.
Clearly, even if they didn't say it aloud, they were still competing behind the scenes.
Seeing their secretly tense expressions, Hikari couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
But he didn't say much. He simply told them one by one about the benefits he had just secured for them after "serving" the shrine rich lady.
Hearing that he had arranged for Jinno Sumire, a major figure of the Jinno family, to look after them, Miyuri and Sayako did not show much joy.
Both aunts slightly furrowed their brows and looked at him quietly.
In the end, Sayako spoke first, "Hikari-kun, are you going back to Tokyo?"
Hikari nodded, "Yeah, it's about time."
Hearing that, Miyuri instantly couldn't hold back and threw herself into his arms, tightly hugging his waist.
"Hikari-kun, Aunt will definitely miss you when you leave. You must come back to see Aunt often!"
Sayako also tightly gripped his hand, "Aunt too. I'll always think about you. For the rest of my life, I belong to you."
Seeing the two mature, beautiful aunts looking as if they were about to cry, Hikari quickly comforted them, "It's not like I'm leaving and never coming back."
"Don't worry. I'll come back often."
"I have plenty of time. On weekends and holidays, I can almost always come back here."
"When the time comes, I'll definitely come back more often to look after you both. Don't worry."
Hearing that, Miyuri suddenly couldn't help feeling jealous. She asked a bit sourly, "Hikari-kun, when you come back to the village, is it mainly to see me or to see Sayako?"
Sayako also asked, "You're coming back to see Aunt, right? It doesn't have much to do with Miyuri, does it?"
Seeing how they were ready to argue again at any moment, Hikari shook his head helplessly and smiled, "I said I'm coming back to look after both aunts. Whether it's Aunt Miyuri or Aunt Sayako, both."
"No, you have to say who's more important!", Miyuri pressed.
"Right. It's Aunt Sayako who's more important, isn't it?", Sayako also insisted.
Sure enough, these two beautiful aunts couldn't stay peaceful for long after meeting. Just a few words and they were about to quarrel again.
When each was alone with him, their personalities were perfect. How did they become so full of sparks when together?
Hikari thought it over. If he wanted the two aunts to get along, he would have to act as the lubricant between them.
They had to be close body to body, heart to heart, only then could they overlap harmoniously.
So faced with their questioning, Hikari didn't answer.
He simply stretched out both hands and wrapped them around the slender waists of the two aunts at the same time.
"Ah! Hikari-kun, what are you doing?", Being suddenly hugged tightly like that in front of Miyuri, Sayako was shocked and shy.
Although Miyuri was also a bit flushed, in this regard her mind reacted faster. Yet she still put on a resistant face and said, "Hikari-kun, I don't want to do this together with this woman. I… I'm not ready!"
"Right, I don't want to do it together with her either," Sayako hurriedly said after understanding.
Hikari smiled, "That's not up to you. Aunt Sayako, Aunt Miyuri, with the way your relationship is now, I can't leave at ease. So before I go, let me guide you two a bit."
With a light toss, the slightly older and more mature Sayako was thrown up first.
Then the jealous Aunt Miyuri also fell down, pressing tightly against Sayako.
Looking at the two aunts stacked together, their faces full of shock, Hikari smiled faintly.

At the entrance of Ino Village.
Dragging a suitcase, Asakawa Touka, her face cold, walked alone toward home.
Although Asakawa Touka had very high looks and a perfect curvy figure, full of the strong charm of a mature woman that even simple clothes couldn't hide.
No one on the road dared to approach her, not even casting too many glances.
Because her expression was simply too frightening, cold like an iceberg, making people afraid of being frozen just by getting close.
Seeing pedestrians avoid her, Touka didn't care. She was used to it.
She had long stopped caring about those people's gazes.
Ever since that damned man destroyed the family, the only ones she cared about were her two daughters.
Especially her eldest daughter, Suiren, so obedient and sensible.
A daughter as considerate and understanding as Suiren should not be affected by the family. She deserved to enjoy a happy life.
Fortunately, she had arranged a marriage for her.
The other party's family background and personal conditions were both quite good, worthy of Suiren.
Thinking of this, a faint trace of a smile appeared on Asakawa Touka's face.
She wondered how Suiren and Aoi had been doing these days while she was away.
Suiren was so gentle and sensible, she must have taken good care of the house.
With a bit of anticipation, Touka returned to the Asakawa family courtyard.
Lifting her suitcase, she knocked on the door.
But after waiting for quite a while, no one came to open it.
After waiting a bit longer, still no one.
Finally, Asakawa Touka couldn't hold back and took out the key from her suitcase.
She inserted it into the lock and opened the door.
Creak!
As the door opened, just as she lifted her leg and stepped inside, a strong, unpleasant smell suddenly rushed at her.
The strange smell was a bit like a fishy sea scent, and also a bit like the fragrance of some flower blooming.
Breathing in that sharp, strange smell filling the house, Asakawa Touka froze on the spot, her expression blank.
———
"Aunt Sayako, slow down, be careful with your waist."
Seeing Sayako, who seemed especially energetic today because Miyuri was watching from the side, Hikari, lying flat, quickly reminded her.
"Yeah, don't strain your back trying to act tough. If you can't handle it, come down quickly. Don't hog it, I'm still waiting."
Miyuri brushed her hair and nodded in agreement.
Sayako immediately became unhappy, glaring at Miyuri, "You were the one crying that you couldn't move just now, so that's why it was my turn. And now you're shouting again?"
"Hmph! I've rested enough, can't I? Forget it, I won't argue with you. Hikari-kun, come kiss," Miyuri rolled her eyes, then leaned over from the side, wrapping her arms around his neck and bringing her soft lips close.
Seeing Miyuri lean in, Hikari had no choice but to prop himself up and meet her.
Caught between the two, Hikari felt a bit helpless.
It wasn't because he felt pressured fighting both at once.
After all, one against two wasn't new to him. He could win that.
What made him helpless was that he had intentionally brought Miyuri and Sayako into this together, even letting them team up.
He wanted to repair their relationship, to make them less tense with each other.
But unexpectedly, even at a time like this, they still kept competing for affection.
Forget it. Let them fuss a bit more. Once they were done, he would properly guide these two aunts.
Just as Hikari was thinking about his plan, his phone suddenly rang. Someone was calling.
He didn't really want to answer, but both Miyuri and Sayako urged him to pick up.
So he had no choice but to take the phone.
And as he answered the call, Miyuri and Sayako, who were already moving seriously, became even more energetic, making him both amused and helpless.
———
On the other side.
After being busy outside for several days, Touka returned home, but instead of being greeted warmly by her daughters, she was met with a strong and unpleasant smell.
Breathing in that sharp odor, somewhat like salted fish, Touka's nose tingled, and her body felt faintly strange.
After sniffing a few more times and confirming that the smell was coming from the living room, she began to look around.
But after searching, she couldn't pinpoint the source, because it seemed to be everywhere.
However, during the search, she noticed that the house was somewhat messy.
That was not common, because Suiren was usually very diligent. Wherever there was dirt, she would quickly clean it up. A situation like this had almost never happened.
Not seeing Suiren or Aoi, Touka glanced upstairs.
She didn't say anything, just took out a broom and silently began cleaning.
After finishing cleaning, Touka sat upright on the sofa without leaning back, arms crossed.
She stared straight ahead, not even turning on the TV, just blankly looking at the air, deep in thought, as if pondering something.
