Chapter 255 – I Don’t Want to Lose.

One.

When I went back to the office as Unni Emae said, I could see a black-haired beauty sitting on Mr. Rabbit’s lap and hugging his head tightly.

Hehe…Hehe.”

She hummed happily, looked down at the rabbit boss as if she was adorable, and stroked her hair, which I hadn’t touched, as if it were her own. She must be the dark-haired woman Eme told me about.

Certainly, I think I’ll have to kick it out as Emmy said… No, what am I thinking right now?!

Emotions rose to the touch of the black-haired woman who stroked Mr. Rabbit as if it were her own, but those emotions were immediately suppressed by rationality.

Judging from the fact that they were stroking it so closely, and that the rabbit boss didn’t show any signs of discomfort, there was a high probability that that woman was an acquaintance of the rabbit boss.

There is also a chance that it is a very close acquaintance that corresponds to an adult relationship such as Ia Reese-sama, Emeonni, or Lapis Julie.

It’s not that I didn’t like Mr. Rabbit, but kicking me out just because he didn’t like me is obviously presumptuous. Seeing them cling to each other like that, doesn’t that mean they’re very close acquaintances? That’s right, Stella, let’s not talk about it. It’s not like you to act on your own in a situation like this.

I went to the academy and realized how not to make a fight again, and I informed the boss that I had returned to the dark-haired woman’s small chest with her face buried.

“Boss, I’m here. When I came to my senses, I was falling outside… I’m sorry for suddenly leaving.”

It was my fault for leaving the workplace without a word for any reason, so I bowed my head and apologized.

Then the boss removed her face from the dark-haired woman’s chest, lifted her up and stood next to her, and gestured as if nothing had happened, saying that it was okay.

“Oh, it’s okay. Because our Maya made a mistake. There is nothing wrong Mr. Stell.”
“Our Mayna…”

I couldn’t tell for sure if we had put us in front of the name or if the name was our maina, but looking at the distance between the two people, it was highly likely that it was the former.

The rabbit boss is close enough to call that woman Mayina and us…

I didn’t feel this way until I received Mr. Ia Reese, but every time Mr. Rabbit’s female preference was gradually revealed, something felt stuffy in my heart.

At that time, when I was slightly hardening my face in the frustration I felt for the first time, a woman named Mayna, who had fallen from the rabbit boss, opened her mouth and offered her apology.

“I thought you were a guest because I didn’t know your face. I’m sorry, Mr. Stell, for throwing it away at will.”
“Yes? Ah… It’s okay… Wait, yes? Did you throw it away? Was that really what you threw?”

Her habitual apology almost jumped out when she said she was sorry, but the content of what Mayna said made her have no choice but to cut off her apology halfway through.

To throw something, you need to hold it in your hand before that, but I skipped that process and only recognized the result of being thrown.

No matter how fast it was thrown, it didn’t make sense that I couldn’t recognize the process, and even if it really moved at a speed I couldn’t perceive, it didn’t make sense that this office was intact.

But there was a sense of being thrown. The feeling of being caught in the waist still lingers. Then it means that I actually threw it…

“How······?”

I couldn’t come up with an answer in my head.
So, when I asked with a blank face, the woman named Mayna smiled and answered in a relaxed tone.

“It’s a secret. There’s no way an Awakener who lives off his ability alone can reveal his ability, right?”
“Ah… That, that’s right. I’m sorry. I’m too curious, so I’ll stop without even realizing it.”
“It’s okay. It can be. Everyone who has experienced my abilities at least once asks the same questions as Mr. Stell.”

Dodging my question for good reason, she came over and introduced herself with a smile and an outstretched hand.

“I’m a little late in greeting, but nice to meet you. It’s Mayna Guffin.”
“Ah, it’s Stella. Nice to meet you…”

She took Mayna Guffin’s hand with hers as if bewitched, and shook it politely, only to realize that her last name was unusual.

Mayna… Guffin?

I trembled with my clasped hands and said, ‘No. I don’t think so.’ I asked carefully.

“Uh, hey… If it’s a guffin, would that be the guffin I know…?”
“If the guffin Mr. Stell knows is Mack Guffin, then that would be correct, right? I am the legitimate one-man successor of the Guffin family.”
“…!”

I opened my mouth wide in surprise at Mayna Guffin’s answer, but strangely, nothing came out of her mouth.

I learned today for the first time that when a person is surprised enough to exceed the real limit, the sound of swallowing breath does not even come out.

Mack Guffin?! That Mac Guffin?!?! The world’s No. 1 Awakener… That Mack Guffin who’s now gone into hiding and doesn’t know where he’s gone?!

I wanted to be surprised by making a fuss, but I was speechless, so I couldn’t make any sound with my mouth wide open and my eyes wide open.

But Mayna Guffin skillfully brought up what I was wondering if she had read my thoughts or if she always heard the same words.

“If you’re wondering where Mack Guffin went, you better not get your hopes up, because I don’t know. It’s been quite a while since I broke up with that uncle… No, my teacher. It wasn’t even that deep in the first place. It was just a business relationship.”

Being the only successor of the world’s No. 1 Awakener, but not being very close, Mayna Guffin’s words were hard to accept as I was in awe of the title of ‘World’s No. 1’ as everyone else does.

But it was the truth, no joke, and Mayna Guffin didn’t really seem to care about Mack Guffin.

I wasn’t so surprised and curious about what I was trying to get in the first place.

Anyway, when Mayna Guffin said, “I had a business relationship with Mack Guffin,” I was able to get out of the “Extremely surprised!!!” State and opened my speech.

I was so surprised that I stopped breathing, so I took a rough deep breath and carefully put the question I really wanted to ask into my mouth.

“Hey… So, what is Mayna Guffin’s relationship with the boss…?”

The person who answered my question was not Mei or Guffin in front of me, but Mr. Rabbit sitting behind her.

“It’s my little brother.”
“You are my brother!”

The moment I heard Mr. Rabbit’s answer, the tension that had hit the floor rose rapidly, and at the same time, the corners of my lips also went up to the point where they caught my ears.

Come to think of it, both of them have jet-black hair, which is rare among Awakeners, and they don’t look like ordinary Awoken people, and they have many similarities! They were blood relatives! It seems very close for a brother and sister relationship, but… It’s not strange to think that they’re very close siblings! Yes!

Rather than saying that Mr. Rabbit had Mack Guffin’s only heir as his younger brother, he was more inclined to think that the two of them were brother and sister.

Unlike all the women who have come out so far, who are so beautiful that they are mesmerized the moment they see them and have the world’s best abilities (except for Lupine Emeon on a salary), all the beauties have had an adult relationship with the rabbit boss, Mayna Guffin and the rabbit boss were brother and sister.

For some reason, that fact was so reassuring and happy that I couldn’t help but raise the corners of my mouth…

“Brother, I have to be precise. A close brother Not blood relatives. It would be better to say that they are from the same orphanage. Yes. They are very close, but they are not family yet.”
“Eh.”

At Mayna Guffin’s words, the corners of her mouth and shoulders drooped at the same time.

This time, rather than the fact that the rabbit boss is an orphan, the thought was biased towards the nuanced words that May or Guffin seem to be close enough to look like rabbit boss and her family, but they are not actually her family, so they can develop into a romantic relationship at any time.

In the end, Mei and Guffin also had an adult relationship with the rabbit boss.

That fact threw me again into a feeling of despair that I couldn’t figure out why.

Hehe… Huh?”

Whoops.

Mayna Guffin looked at me like that and took out her cell phone that was ringing in her pocket.

“Brother, I think I should go. I got a job. In my heart, I want to be with you more…”
“I can see you next time.”
“That’s right. Then I’ll go, brother. See you again soon! Stell, as an employee, please focus on your hard work. Then I will go.”

With those words, Mayna Guffin walked out of her office with a dignified gait.

The back of Mayna Guffin, who was gradually receding, was dignified and dignified, as if she would fight confidently no matter who she faced.

Looking at the back, which is so well suited to the word Mack Guffin’s only successor, that would make the viewer feel awe.

······I don’t want to lose.

Her heart warmed up at her unprecedented sympathy.

I’m not sure what I don’t want to lose. Anyway!
