The next day, my mind was in a complicated state.
The reason was none other than…
“Young Master, when will you go on a date with Ange?”
“…”
Lien was giving a hint that she wanted to go on a date with her daughter.
“Well… I do want to go on a date with the Saint, but she’s always so busy…”
“Sigh…”
She sighed deeply at my excuse.
Why? Wasn’t that a valid excuse?
I felt a bit resentful, but seeing her stern face, I decided to stay quiet.
As I silently felt wronged, Lien’s expression beca complicated.
“Actually, I heard about Lise’s past from the other maids and butlers.”
“Hmm…”
Oh? I didn’t know that?
“After hearing that, I also thought, is it right for my daughter to be your lover?”
“…”
Huh? Is that all there is to my past with Lise?
I remained silent and listened attentively.
Lien continued,
“You two have known each other for a long ti, and I know how special Lise considers you. It seems that even the master, Thomas, is implicitly approving of Lise becoming your lover after this incident.”
Oh… So, my father had already given his silent approval without my knowledge.
Why didn’t I, the person involved, know about this?
And why does Lien, who recently joined, know about my secret that even I don’t know?
At this point, I feel like I’m being treated like a fool.
After all, I was the one who resolved Lise’s situation, yet I don’t know anything about her or our past.
Of course, I couldn’t say, “Actually, I’ve lost my mory.”
If I did, nothing good would co of it.
…No, in fact, I rember everything.
I’m sure Lise and I had a special relationship in the past.
I don’t know exactly what that relationship was like, but I rember it.
As I justified my actions to myself, Lien bowed her head with a pleading expression.
“But my daughter likes you so much… So, Young Master, if you get the chance, would you go on a date with my daughter? She’s been looking forward to going on a date with you.”
“Hmm…”
Why do I feel like such a scumbag?
To be blunt, according to the laws of the Leiston continent, polygamy is allowed among the nobility.
So, even if I form a harem with the won I’m involved with, others would just accept it.
After all, it’s common for nobles to have multiple partners.
However, having lived a long life on Earth, my mind couldn’t accept it even if the law allowed it.
‘I feel like such a scumbag.’
No, to be honest, I am a scumbag.
Anyway, I digress, but it’s true that I haven’t done anything for Ange even though she helped this ti.
Of course, she probably thinks that I just wanted to prevent Lise’s marriage and find the cult’s mbers.
My conscience does feel a bit guilty.
Even if it weren’t for this, I might need her help in the future.
But all I’ve done for her so far is save the orphanage and Lien.
To her, I’m like a savior, but to be honest, I only saved them to use them.
‘And I’ve also been marked by Elsa.’
How did my life turn out like this?
I recalled everything that had happened since I possessed Kaine.
“…”
The ga developers are the problem.
Why did they make possess Kaine, of all people?
No, even setting that aside, why did they send right before Kim Soo-yong was about to defeat ?
It’s not unreasonable to suspect that these developers actually hate .
When I et them, I’m going to beat them up.
“Yes, you don’t need to ask. I was already planning to et the Saint alone.”
“Ah! I knew it!”
“Yes, but let’s talk about that later. I have to leave now.”
“Hmm… As a mother who supports her daughter, it’s hard to say this, but have a good date, Young Master.”
After saying this, I left the mansion in a suit.
.
.
.
I didn’t understand why we had to et outside when we lived in the sa mansion, but I headed towards the destination.
Soon enough, I arrived.
I couldn’t help but slightly open my mouth at the sight before .
Her black skirt barely covered her knees, contrasting with her white knit top.
Over the knitwear, she wore a black coat, and her majestic chest stood out.
Seeing her in casual clothes instead of her usual maid uniform, I realized once again how pretty she was.
Of course, I had also seen her in a wedding dress before.
‘I was too busy at the ti to properly look at her then.’
As I thought this, Kaine stared blankly.
“Young Master?”
Lise, with her cheeks slightly red, tilted her head in a way she never did before.
Snapped out of his thoughts by her question, Kaine jumped in surprise.
“Oh! Yes? Sorry, was I staring? Where do you want to go?”
At his question, Lise fell into deep thought.
‘It’s ti to eat, so it’s probably better to have a light al, right?’
Lise, with a tense expression, opened her mouth.
“How about we walk around and try so street food?”
“Sure, if that’s what you want.”
After that, the two of them walked together, each with a subtle atmosphere.
.
.
.
anwhile, Origin looked at each of the three goddesses, who were of equal status to her.
The Goddess of Happiness had a cheerful aura that made others feel happy, just like her na suggested.
She also had a kind deanor that matched her appearance, and her figure was not inferior to Origin’s.
‘Kaine would probably like her a lot.’
Although there was no guarantee that the two would et, she was the first one to be wary of.
Next, Origin turned her gaze to the Goddess of Amusent, who enjoyed entertainnt.
Unlike the Goddess of Fate and Happiness, she had a light and carefree atmosphere.
She seed more like a child than a goddess, and her appearance also resembled that of a young girl.
‘Kaine wouldn’t like this one. No need to be wary.’
Then, Origin shifted her gaze to the Goddess of Battle, who loved fighting.
She had a small scar on her cheek, fierce features, and a body with a balance that would make anyone marvel.
She seed to have gone through many battles.
‘She’s the sa as before.’
Unlike the other goddesses, the Goddess of Battle remained silent.
The Goddess of Fate looked around at the three of them and opened her mouth.
“Where is the Goddess of Dinsions?”
“She’s probably playing in another dinsion, as usual.”
The Goddess of Amusent shrugged in response to the Goddess of Fate’s question.
After hearing her answer, the Goddess of Fate regretted coming.
‘I should have just stayed and watched over Kaine instead of coming here.’
To be fair, the Goddess of Dinsions didn’t usually participate in etings like the other goddesses, but now that Origin knew she wasn’t there, she felt like she shouldn’t have co either.
“So, why did you suddenly call for a eting? Is it for a fight?”
Even though she regretted coming, the Goddess of Fate participated in the eting because of the Goddess of Battle, who rarely spoke.
Since the Goddess of Battle rarely spoke, Origin was a bit surprised and curious when she suggested the eting.
The Goddess of Fate asked, and the Goddess of Battle closed her eyes for a mont before slowly opening her mouth.
“The Goddess of Dinsions said that an isekai person ca a few months ago.”
“An isekai person?”
Just for that?
Of course, it was unprecedented for two isekai people to co in less than a year.
It was a bit surprising, but was it enough for the Origins to have a eting?
To be honest, whether an isekai person ca or not had nothing to do with them.
At most, it was just a little interesting.
After living for so long, Origin didn’t find isekai people very interesting.
‘Kaine would probably be more interesting.’
As Origin thought this, Happiness asked Battle.
“It’s unprecedented for two isekai people to co in a year or two, but is it enough for us to have a eting?”
“Yes, to be honest, what’s so special about them other than the fact that they’re from another world?”
“…”
Amusent also agreed with Happiness and nodded.
Battle remained silent for a mont, then crossed her arms with a nonchalant expression.
“Yes, as you two said, it’s not enough for us to gather just because of an isekai person. But the Goddess of Dinsions said that this person seems a bit special.”
“Special?”
At the Goddess of Battle’s response, the Goddess of Fate nodded.
“As you all know, the souls of isekai people and the people of our world are different, right?”
At her question, all the Origins nodded in agreent.
“But for so reason, this person has the sa soul as the people of our world.”
“What?!”
The sa soul?
The Goddess of Fate, who could see fate, opened her mouth with a slightly surprised expression.
“Could it be a returnee? Perhaps soone from our world went to another world and ca back?”
At her question, the Goddess of Battle shook her head without hesitation.
“The Goddess of Dinsions said that it wasn’t the case. She said that she had never sent anyone from our world to another world.”
“Huh?”
Then it doesn’t make sense.
The souls of people from different worlds can never be the sa.
After all, their origins are completely different, even if the air, magic, and civilization in their worlds are similar.
It’s impossible for their souls to be the sa.
‘If they were the sa… ‘
It’s certain that a being of the sa status as the Origins would have interfered in this world.
Of course, this is assuming it’s not a returnee.
‘But since the Goddess of Dinsions said it’s not a returnee, soone must have interfered.’
It’s definitely not the three of them who are here right now.
After all, it would take a lot of power to make souls the sa. Plus, they would have to combine the souls of the people from our world and the isekai person.
Interfering with souls to this extent is dangerous.
It might even require sacrificing the life of a transcendent being.
So, it’s not these three who are here right now.
‘Is it the Demon Archduke?’
If it’s him, he’s a being on par with the Origins.
An archduke-level being could risk their life to change souls.
But…
‘Why would he do that?’
The demons value their lives more than anything else.
An archduke would be even more cautious than an ordinary demon.
“Battle, just asking, but did the Goddess of Dinsions interfere in any way?”
“Yes, it’s not that. She seed perfectly fine when she talked to .”
So, it’s not her either.
“Anyway, I called you here for this reason.”
“Hmm. Yes, I understand.”
“I’d like to et this person. Battle, do you know anything specific, like when they ca or what they look like?”
The Goddess of Amusent asked with a curious expression, blowing out a breath.
The Goddess of Battle answered with a nonchalant expression.
“I don’t know what they look like, but they ca about half a year ago.”
“Half a year? They’ve been here for quite a while. Are they still adjusting?”
“Probably.”
At the ntion of half a year, Origin briefly thought of Kaine, but…
‘No, it’s not him.’
For an isekai person, he didn’t seem surprised at all.
In fact, it would be more accurate to say he’s from this world rather than an isekai person.
The Goddess of Fate, thinking the conversation was over, showed a disinterested expression.
“So, is the conversation over?”
“What? Are you leaving already, Fate?”
“Yes, what’s wrong? Why are you so quiet?”
The Goddess of Battle and Amusent looked at the Goddess of Fate with puzzled expressions.
Even Happiness tilted her head.
“Usually, you’d be excited and enthusiastic, but… Did you find soone interesting?”
‘Tsk, this is why I dislike her.’
She spoke in a playful tone, but it seed like she was reading Origin’s mind.
She was really difficult to deal with.
The Goddess of Fate clicked her tongue and asked.
“Tsk! …Why? What would you do even if you knew?”
“No, I’m not saying it in a hostile way.”
“Hmm. Okay, then why are you asking?”
“Well, you’re usually so talkative, but you’re quiet now…”
At Happiness’s words, the other two goddesses also nodded in agreent.
“Nothing. I just have sothing to do, that’s all. Then I’ll take my leave.”
With that, the Goddess of Fate walked towards her territory.
‘If I tell them, I’ll just be increasing the competition.’
There are already many won who like Kaine.
There’s no need to increase the competition.
While the Goddess of Fate who could see fate thought this, the three Origins stared blankly at her back.
Then, all three of them had the sa thought.
‘She must have found soone interesting.’
‘We need to investigate.’
