Upon Returning Home As A Military Major General, I Was Told To Attend School, Even Though It’s Quite Late Now

"He definitely saved this country, and without him, Japan would definitely have become a vassal state by now. Every adult in this country should be grateful and guilty for what he is now.'

"I heard that he has the rank of major general in the army, but it's not the highest rank, right?

"Considering what Rear Admiral Kamiya has done, he has not been awarded a single medal because of the secrecy of his existence. It is used to the advantage of the government."

"Turn off the TV, Mina."

"Yes Yes"

Mina smiles wryly as she turns off the TV with the remote control.

I came home from the school to Hayami's spatial transition and had dinner, but the TV was still reporting only about me.

"You're complimenting me, Yuu-kun."

"I used to say 'kill' compliments."

As a person who has been doing this, I feel very uncomfortable.

"I'm glad to see you being complimented by everyone, though."

Mina grinns proudly as she looks at my article in the evening edition of today's newspaper that she brought from home.

"Was it hard for Mina to be exposed to the world as a battlefield diva?"

"I'm a member of the military, so it's painful that even minors can show their faces."

That's right.

Even though I'm a minor, I don't want my face to appear in the media.

However, considering the position of a military officer as a major general, information on these personnel changes is essentially made available to the public.

This has the implication of monitoring the government to see if the politicians or the military are running amok and operating the organization in an arbitrary manner.

"But it's too much for reporters to come to school...... I mean, I don't know if I'll be able to continue going to school in ...... first place."

"What! Why!?"

Mina, who had been looking at the evening paper on the dining table in a daze, looked up from the paper.

"The reason I came to this school was to cover up my existence because the world was about to find out, but if the world finds out like this, the government doesn't need to send me to the academy anymore."

"It's not normal for you to go to school at your age!"

"I'm not normal, for better or for worse."

"You-kun......"

I replied self-deprecatingly, and Mina couldn't say a word.

Well, if you self-deprecate like this, you'll make people feel distracted, so let's change the subject.

"But why didn't the government suppress the media this time?"

Shortly after I returned to Japan, when I was caught wandering around the Ichigaya government building in formal attire as a major general, the upper echelons of the military said that they had had a hard time keeping the media in check.

"It's true that the media knew from the beginning that you were a major general and that you were a hero of the Great War."

Certainly.

By the time Mina and I went to school together, my face and identity were completely divided.

"The government found out that the information was spreading so much that it couldn't be controlled, but my information must have been set to a very high level of secrecy."

I don't know how the government monitors the Internet and the media, but if I get caught, it will be like this, so the upper management must have been desperately allocating budget and manpower.

What kind of genius hacker would bypass those surveillance nets and spread my information?

Prime Minister Kariya said that a specialized team is investigating the culprit, but the point is that the government has not been able to get its hands on the tail.

"Well, that's it, Yuu-kun, we were talking about a ski trip before, but because of this situation, it's canceled...... Isn't it?"

As I was about to sink into a sea of thoughts, Mina asked me, "It can't be helped that Daddy is busy with work...... is it?"

Speaking of which, I had completely forgotten about it due to the uproar over my identity, but I had promised to teach Mina skiing.

"No, if it's on the slopes, you can hide your face with goggles or something, and you can go, right?"

"Really!?"

Mina brightens her face.

If you get a look like that with anticipation, like, "Daddy, you're busy with work, can you take me with you!?", you can't say no.

"However, as expected, you can't get caught in a hotel with an unspecified number of food expo guests, so it's like renting a lodge like you did on a summer trip to Okinawa."

"What...... Yu and I sit in a rocking chair in front of the fireplace, drinking coffee and watching the falling snow from the window...... It's a good ......."

"The purpose of the trip is to practice Mina's skiing."

"In the middle of a snowstorm, two people in distress happened to arrive at a ski warehouse ......."

"No, I won't let you get lost in my ski training."

I'm not an incompetent instructor who gets lost on the slopes for leisure purposes with my students.

"One blanket...... The two of them will eventually ...... to each other with human skin."

No good.

Mina has completely tripped into her own delusional world and doesn't respond to my twitching.

"Yu, I'm hungry, I want to have a late-night snack."

"Didn't you go to bed, Misuzu?"

While rubbing her eyes, Misuzu in pajamas opened the door and entered the living room.

And when he wakes up, he asks for a late-night snack.

"Yes, yes, I'll make porridge in a clay pot."

Mina, who has returned quickly from the delusion theater, begins to prepare Misuzu's midnight snack in a run-lun mood.

"Hey, Mina, what's going on? Yu"

"The child should go to bed early."

QuestionIbukaMisuzu, who is worried, looks at me as if asking why, but for the time being, the ski trip is a secret between the two of them, so I deceive her appropriately.

"That's why I'm older than the two of you."

Misuzu had a puffy face, but the sight of her quietly waiting at the dining table for Mina to make porridge looked like only her daughter who was in the prime of eating and her mother who took care of her with great enthusiasm.
