Chapter 7: New World

MC: um… where are we?

Gimlet: Your new home

MC: Here? My new home? Who’s house is this? (I’ve never seen a mansion this big)

Pink Lady: It can’t be helped that you’re being thrust into a place like this. Well, let’s go in

MC: Hang on a minute, ahh

Tom Collins: So what do you think? This is your room.

MC: Ah, right.

Tequila Sunrise: Oh, You came, little lady! So, what do you think of your new room?

MC: It looks just like my room back home. How did you manage to do that?

???: gahahahaha So did we do a good job?

Tequila Sunrise: We thought you should have your own private place. So we went to your home, got your things, and set them up here just as they were in your house.

MC: You brought everything?? And you set it up just as it was??

???: It’s not that big a deal! It was like carrying a baby cattle on my shoulders! hahaha

MC: Wow… You’re really strong, aren’t you? And you are…?

???: Ah, right! I’m Screwdriver! Nice to meet you! I’ve been looking forward to seeing you, new master!

MC: Master…right.. so that means you also work at the bar then?

Screwdriver: Exactly. This is where everyone who works at the bar lives! That’s why you don’t need to be so formal with us.

MC: R–right. Hey, Tom Collins. What does all this mean?

Tom Collins: It’s just as it sounds. Starting today, you will be living here with us.

Gimlet: If you’re worried about living together with a bunch of guys, you can always just lock your door. Everyone here respects each other’s privacy.

Tequila Sunrise: If anyone disrespects your privacy…

Screwdriver: Then Tequila Sunrise and I will punish them! So there’s no need to worry! Hahaha!

MC: Ha...hahaha? While I appreciate the security, I think this is all so sudden…

Tom Collins: Well… Since all your furniture is here, if you return to your house, you’ll be going back to a completely empty room. And since your grandfather has left on vacation, all the doors are locked.

MC: But I wasn’t aware this would be happening.

Tom Collins: Really? It all should have been stated in the contract.

MC: The contract…?

Tom Collins: I believe the contract says “You must move to the mansion and deepen your friendship with the bar staff.” Didn’t you read it?

MC: I…see… I guess…maybe… I didn’t…read that part.

Screwdriver: Gahahah! There’s no need to feel down about it! It’ll fun living together!

Gimlet: Right! Please don’t have any bad thoughts about it.

MC:O–okay. (I’m confused yet again. Without knowing anything, I managed to get myself this far)

Tequila Sunrise: Which reminds me, there are still some people you haven’t met yet. Let’s all meet in the living room and we’ll introduce you.

Tom Collins: Just what I was thinking. Please change into some comfortable clothes and meet us downstairs.

Gimlet: There’s no rush

MC: Got it. hm…oh, grandpa.
