"Do you really think I could betray Takatora?"

"Yes... after all, Nii-san trusts you too much."

Micchi gritted his teeth as he made his way to his brother's office. Fortunately he guessed right that his brother would return to the office after the confrontation with Kouta. Save his effort to try looking for his brother anywhere else.

"Are you all right, nii-san?" he asked as his older brother Takatora glanced towards him, looking quite worn out. His brother nodded.

"That friend of yours can be quite handful to handle..."

Micchi shrugged. "Ryoma-san asked me to find out who's been helping Kouta-san. I'll see what I can find out... and whether or not I can stop him from doing stupid things again."

His brother frowned. "Are you sure you'll be fine doing that? After all, Kazuraba Kouta is still your important friend..."

Sometimes nii-san could be so kind...

"I'm fine. Besides, I don't like how he kept messing things up and causing trouble for you. Somehow I felt like nii-san shouldn't have let him off so easily last time."

Kouta-san never knew how lucky he was, being treated so leniently.

Takatora shrugged as he ran his hand over Mitsuzane's hair. "Don't push yourself too hard. Just focus on getting that information on who's been backing Kazuraba. Anything else just leave it to me."

"Getting that shouldn't be a problem," Micchi mused loudly as he sat on the couch. "Convincing Kouta-san to stay put and not cause problem is one thing. I'm getting tired of hearing him blabber about how evil Yggdrasil is..."

Seriously, I really had enough of hearing that. Kouta-san thinking that he's the only one acting righteous...

His brother chuckled as he sat beside Micchi. "Let him think what he want. It's not as if we're doing this to get praises..."

Micchi jumped as he felt his brother's hand squeezing his shoulder. He turned to see his brother staring at him in concern. "If it's hard on you to do this behind your friend's back, you don't have to keep doing it. I'll tell Ryoma to let you off. It's not as if we don't have other means to keep those other kids under control..."

And not be able to stay with Team Gaim anymore?

"Ah no!" Micchi suddenly exclaimed. "This was no problem at all... I, want to do this. In order to keep everyone safe—if only I can say the same thing about Kouta-san. But that aside, nii-san..."

Takatora cocked his head at him.

Micchi fumed. "Why did you trust Ryoma-san so much? Now that I'm here with you to help out, you don't really have to depend on Ryoma-san on everything!"

Yes, please depend on me now. I'll protect nii-san from harm! I won't let anyone hurt you.

His older brother stared at him in amusement. "What is that I'm hearing? Did you have something against Ryoma now?"

Yes... really...

Micchi pouted. "It's... nothing like that! But... I hate it that you'd always did anything that he wanted you to do—even when it could be dangerous. I hate that he could always make you do things that he wants. That's... not okay! What if... there was something he didn't tell—no, I hate to think that Professor Ryoma could so easily manipulate you as he wishes!"

Like how he did right now, doing something in secret with Minato-san and Sid...

Takatora frowned at that. "Oh...? Did something happened to make you think that? Did Ryoma do anything suspicious?"

Yes, he did. But I'm keeping this to myself for now until I find out his motive...

Micchi hesitated a bit before shaking his head. "Well... not exactly. But seeing him suddenly revealing classified info to Kouta-san before without consulting you... and then openly admiting that he pretended to work hard to keep you happy, hard to say that I'm fine about that. And Ryoma-san don't always treat you respectfully also..."

And Professor Ryoma was supposed to be just a subordinate!

His brother seemed amused. "Oh? Is that your only complain against him? Or have you been listening too much of 'evil corporation' stories from your friend?"

"I don't—!"

"That aside, you don't have to worry about me. Or Ryoma, especially. I've known him for quite some time and despite his eccentricity, he's not bad. And Ryoma had always watched over me."

"I can take care of you too! Nii-san's my brother after all! Ryoma-san's not the only one that can keep you safe, I'm here as well!"

Why was it nii-san always had something to say in defense of that guy...?

Takatora gasped as Micchi suddenly lunged at him and hugged him tightly. He could hear his brother chuckling as Micchi welcomed his brother's touch.

"This child... what's wrong with you today?" said Takatora, puzzled.

Refusing to answer that question, Micchi buried his face on his brothers chest.
