What's Wrong with Adding Me to So Many Omni-Anime Geniuses?

Not only can she not bridge the gap between her parents, but she also occasionally suffers verbal abuse from her mother.

In the end, I'm still just an unwanted child... I should have left before putting the person I like in a difficult position.

"So you've forgiven me, right?" Ogura Asahi asked again to confirm.

"To say you forgive me is an understatement. You did nothing wrong, Sister Asahi. The one who was wrong was me, who didn't dare to speak up!" She raised her head and looked directly into her eyes, her gaze defiant.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'm not actually the good child you imagine, so please..."

"That's good. Since the apology has been made, let's get down to business." Ogura Asahi's face was no longer weak. He crossed his legs, his eyes sharp, and his expression concealing anger.

"Huh?!"

Shiina Mahiru, who had been interrupted, was confused and stood there stunned.

"Mahiru!" Ogura Asahi said in a deep voice.

"Hi, hi!" Shiina Mahiru was startled when she saw this side of her that was so different from her usual gentle demeanor.

"You..."

"Yes!" Her pressured gaze shifted to her, and Shiina Mahiru felt her mouth go dry, involuntarily closing her eyes and shrinking her head.

I'm going to get yelled at!

"Why don't you become my child? What do you think?" Ogura Asahi suggested, a smirk playing on her lips.

"I understand! Thank you so much... Huh?" After subconsciously replying, the information she had just processed in her mind made her expression jump, and she stared blankly at the silver-haired person in front of her.

What did I just hear?

"I've thought it over carefully. Since you treat me like an older sister, as your older sister, I naturally can't let you stay in that bizarre family any longer." The silver-haired girl looked up at the ceiling as she explained her thoughts.

"Especially your mother, isn't she a complete lunatic? It's one thing to be so promiscuous herself, but she even takes her anger out on such an outstanding daughter sometimes. She's simply not in her right mind."

"If we continue to leave you there, I am very worried that one day you will be influenced by them and suffer unbearable blows."

"Since they don't care about you anyway, why don't you just become my adopted sister and come to my house?"

"I swear I will give you the best treatment and protection, and I will not cause you any inconvenience or difficulty in your life. What do you think?"

A long silence filled the air. Shiina Mahiru sat there blankly, pondering her words, which seemed even more incomprehensible than the last question on a math exam.

Ogura Asahi didn't disturb her, but simply waited quietly for her answer.

"..."

At Sister Asahi's house, who? Me? Why?

Becoming Sister Asahi's adopted sister was something she had always dreamed of, but was it really possible? Did she even deserve it?

I'll only bring misfortune upon myself. Rather than causing trouble for Sister Asahi, I'd rather...

After a long while, the person who had been motionless like a statue finally stirred.

"..." She swallowed hard, and said with difficulty, "I'm sorry! Sister Asahi, although..."

"You don't need to tell me any of that," Ogura Asahi said, interrupting her had become a habit. "You just need to answer me whether you want to or not."

"I..." Shiina Mahiru's eyes filled with tears, and she almost couldn't control herself.

She wanted to say that she didn't want to, that she didn't want to burden the other person, but the grievances that had accumulated over time made it impossible for her to say those words, as tears kept streaming down her face.

Despite her best efforts to suppress her physical instincts, soft sobs and whimpers lingered in the empty living room.

"I think."

Ah, I guess I'm still a selfish child.

"But this will cause a lot of trouble for Sister Asahi! Please don't worry about me, just let me continue like this!"

"That's fine. Don't say things you don't mean." She chuckled lightly, unconcerned. "Leave the rest to me. Don't worry, trust me."

What might be troublesome for you is nothing to me.

"Red beans?" Shiina Mahiru asked Kokoro for confirmation.

"Red beans, red beans." She nodded repeatedly, and to ease her worries, she continued to explain:

"Anyway, your parents aren't the ones who already hold power in the family, so it's easy to persuade them."

"They're just two incompetent fools who only know how to squander their family fortune and indulge in debauchery. They're nowhere near as good as our Mahiru."

"As long as someone threatens their families even slightly, they won't dare to voice any objections."

"If they don't listen, then we'll have to teach them a lesson—but the executor is a bit stubborn, and their family isn't anything special. We might not be able to control our strength and could end up bankrupting them. Maki they can still make a rational choice."

"Although there are still options to offer bribes, I'm so angry that I absolutely don't want them to get even a little bit of a benefit."

"If all else fails, just give her a beating, especially your mother. How about it? Wouldn't it be more satisfying to beat her in front of you?"

Ogura Asahi explained to her with an amused expression, teasingly offering suggestions.

Changing custody of a child to another family is a matter that can be difficult or easy; it all depends on who you're dealing with.

If the target is Okura Family, then it's over. There's practically no chance. Whether it's comparing power and wealth or the importance they place on their family, they have no chance of winning.

But if the targets are just two ordinary local families, then it's much easier.

Not to mention, they don't care whether Shiina Mahiru exists or not. They are just fulfilling their basic responsibilities by ensuring her daily life. They would never choose to be enemies with her because of her.

Let alone the world's top conglomerates Okura Family, even the Sakurakoji Family's connections and wealth in Japan alone would be enough to easily deal with them.

With his mother Sakurakoji Luna, absent, he is currently the acting head of the Sakurakoji Family!

He made all the decisions regarding Japan!

This is such a small matter that there's no need to even inform them.

The real meeting to explain things will take place later, when Shiina Mahiru is introduced to them.

The only problem... might be that Ashiri will get jealous when she finds out he actually took in a foster sister without her consent.

Ashiri: So you've taken in another cute little sister outside, right? What did I, your real sister, do wrong? Did I do something wrong? Are you deliberately targeting me? Hey, say something, oh ni-san... (smile. jpg)

"..."

In short, Ashiri is a kind child, and she won't have any objections if you explain it to her a little!

If all else fails, he could just show up as Ogura Asahi. She would be overjoyed and forget all about it. He nodded vigorously, as if trying to convince himself.

"Please don't hit her or anything like that." Although she harbored a lot of resentment towards that family, her kind heart wouldn't allow her to actually take any retaliatory actions.

After all, those were her parents and family who raised her for many years, even though they hadn't fulfilled their parental responsibilities enough.

"Well, I was just joking. How could someone as kind as me hit someone? You know what I mean?" Ogura Asahi shrugged, deflecting the question.

"..." But your expression doesn't seem like you're joking at all, Shiina Mahiru's eyes were complicated...

"If there are no other issues, then it's settled. From now on, this will be your home. I'll prepare your own room here, and you'll receive a sufficient allowance every month."

Ogura Asahi looked at her with loving eyes. "Welcome to my home, Mahiru."

Upon hearing this, Shiina Mahiru's caramel-colored eyes shimmered, her forced composure crumbled instantly, and she couldn't suppress her emotions any longer, rushing forward to hug him.

"Sister Asahi!"

"Oh, yoshi yoshi." She hugged her delicate body tightly, stroking her soft hair comfortingly to calm her overly excited emotions, her gaze filled with affection.

It would be a lie to say that she made this sudden decision simply to increase Shiina Mahiru's favorability.

If that were all, she had many other options that wouldn't have required such a high price, or even increased the risk of exposure.

This was partly to compensate for her ulterior motives.

Although Sakurakoji Talent had deliberately approached many people, none of them were like her. They all had their own life Trajectory and interpersonal relationships, and it wouldn't make much difference even without him.

Shiina Mahiru is different. If she truly relies on someone when she has no one to rely on, she will genuinely treat that person as her whole world. The entanglement caused by his abrupt plan has made it impossible for him to extricate himself easily.

Unless, he wanted to leave an indelible scar on the heart of this innocent and kind child.

He hasn't gone to such an extreme.

Since it's so hard to break free, taking it a step further isn't a big deal. Children who uphold kindness and hard work always deserve to be loved, don't they?

Helplessly looking at the petite beauty in his arms, her face streaked with tears, he finally understood what it meant to be trapped by one's own actions.

These special networks of relationships that one deliberately cultivates for one's own benefit may become increasingly entangled in the future.

However, that's a matter for later; for now,

"Welcome to be my adopted sister, Mahiru."

"This is the mansion's basement workshop. Kokoro your step." Reminding her to watch her step, Ogura Asahi opened the door to the basement workshop and turned on the lights.

"Whoa..." Shiina Mahiru covered her mouth and nose in surprise.

While she was surprised to find a basement inside, she was even more astonished by the other areas.

The spacious room was filled with numerous items, and unlike the other rooms, the feeling it evoked in her was, if she had to describe it, "Disorganized."

Indeed, unlike the above which is merely orderly and opulent, this place has a completely different style.

The first thing that catches the eye is a large workbench in the center, neatly arranged with papers, documents, and fabric. It looks so tidy that it seems no one has touched it in a while.

The room is surrounded by individual mannequins, chairs, sewing machines, and several solid wood wardrobes filled with various fabrics.

Each wardrobe is filled with raw, unprocessed fabrics of different colors, textures, and sizes, creating a colorful and chaotic look—which is the main culprit behind the cluttered appearance of the place.

The sheer number of items made this place resemble a fabric store; perhaps because it hadn't been properly ventilated in a long time, a strong smell of fabric permeated the air, which wasn't pleasant for those unaccustomed to it.

He went in first, Ogura Asahi introduced to her, "Like my parents, I work in the clothing industry. This is our dedicated workshop in the mansion, where we design and make clothes."

After Shiina Mahiru cried for a long time and finally calmed down, she began to take her around the mansion and introduce her to the layout of the entire building.

After all, she'd already made that bold claim, and since she might be planning to stay here permanently, she naturally wanted to learn more about it first.

"Was the dress Sister Asahi gave me last time also made here?" Shiina Mahiru asked curiously.

"Um... yes, that's right."

Although she did it in the Ten no Yashiro, there's no need to unnecessarily complicate things for herself now.

"Hey~ These designs are amazing!" She began to flip through the design drawings on the table. Each one was exquisite and had a unique perspective. Even though she knew nothing about design, she knew that these were definitely not just doodles.

"What are these?"

"Some of those are my drawings, and some are other people's. I'll introduce them to you later," Ogura Asahi said with a smile, glancing at them.

Among that pile were his own works, works by Okura Iyo Sakurakoji Luna.

All three are currently active world-class designers, and even their practice pieces possess extraordinary qualities that transcend ordinary people.

"As expected of Sister Asahi! She's truly amazing!"

"Wow, these... how should I put it, they seem pretty ordinary." Shiina Mahiru flipped through another pile of documents, her expression subtle.

She stared at another pile of artwork papers in her hand. Although she could tell that they had some drawing skills, they were far inferior to the ones she had just seen, and they seemed rather boring and ordinary.

Especially after seeing that pile before, looking at this one, even calling it "ordinary" would be an understatement; it's practically garbage...

"Those are my father's works."

"Eh? Ah!! Um! I'm so sorry!" Shiina Mahiru quickly put down the documents and hurriedly bowed in apology.

"Haha! It's alright, it's common knowledge that he has no design talent anyway." She laughed and patted her head.

"Ugh~" Shiina Mahiru blushed with embarrassment, her Hands clasped in front of her chest, too ashamed to speak any further.

"Let's go, there's nothing much to see here, it's boring, right? Let's go look at other places." With that, Ogura Asahi walked towards the door.
