Chapter 105

**Elma and Tohru 2**  is the one hundred and fifth chapter of *Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon*.

## Plot

Elma asks Tohru if she wants to hang out with her, which Tohru finds surprising because it's a weekday but it is actually Elma's day off, so Tohru agrees to hang out with Elma. At work, Kobayashi was worried that work would slow down because Elma wasn't there but Tatsuzawa can just as easily do Elma's job and Kobayashi commends her. Takiya is surprised that Kobayashi makes everyone leave on time because of her hard work which isn't a feat for Kobayashi but is happy anyway. Kobayashi heads home from work and doesn't go drinking as it is too early and runs into Kanna and Illulu. As all of them arrive home, they hear someone inside the house and realize it is Telne with Clemene, who responds it is his first time meeting Kobayashi. Illulu then punches Clemene and she and Kanna chase him outside as Kobayashi realizes that he doesn't recognize her at all, prompting Telne to ask is she knew him. Kobayashi asks is he is Telne's friend and she responds no, but his presence is required for the issue she is about to discuss. Tohru asks Elma if there is something she wants to tell her, but Elma responds she wants to talk about it at the beach. While both Elma and Tohru eat bread at the beach, they talk about hanging out in new places but Tohru changes the topic as Elma's nuptial season is coming up which surprises Elma. When Kobayashi asks what is nuptial season, Telne explains that they are many political subgroups in the Harmony Faction that clash, so they set up nuptial arrangements to stop them, and Tohru compares them to arranged marriages, which is something she hated about the Harmony Faction. Elma explains that is helps them avoid conflict, so if Telne allowed Elma to live in the human world, her marriage would come eventually. Telne explains that she and Elma belong in the biggest sub-faction, the Divine Party, and their relationship with the Dragon Slayers is getting tense, so she will use the nuptial season so Elma can marry one of its members. Kobayashi asks if Elma is okay with it, and both Elma and Telne say she did, but Tohru and Kobayashi can't accept it which doesn't surprise Telne as it will rob Elma of the relationships she built here but she believes exchanging them will be worth it and did expect some aversion so she'll have to solve it fair and square. Telne teleports to the beach and will decide the result with a fight against Tohru, whilst saying that Tohru can't accept it comparing Tohru to her father, which angers Tohru. Elma cries out for Telne and Tohru to stop fighting with Telne getting annoyed at how Elma won't call her big sister as Tohru aims a punch directly at her. Telne swiftly dodges, prompting Tohru to call her a hag and Elma calling her grandma, until Telne lets out a cry for Elma to call her big sister while throwing Tohru out into the ocean, leaving only a cut on Telne. Kobayashi is overwhelmed with the idea of an arranged marriage as a partner can let Elma live a happy ending but doesn't have any experience with matchmaking interviews or marriage, as Tohru lays defeated at the beach.
