Capítulo 862: Chapter 15: Apology and Punishnt

“The Squad Leader’s bad heart hasn’t changed,” Miel teased coyly.

“If we’re talking about a bad heart, since I ca to this world, using the Fate Law to sche against has always been you, right?” Aske asked seriously.

“Well, but if I say it’s for your own good, would you… believe ?” Miel bit her lip uneasily.

“Go ahead and say it. Whether I believe it or not will be for to decide,” Aske squinted his eyes.

“Since you ca back… no, since it was confird you would return, I’ve been observing the upcoming world lines.” Miel then walked to his side, explaining cautiously, “I saw Eleanor confessing to you, but you didn’t accept her.”

“Normally, I wouldn’t agree,” Aske replied, “At least at that ti, I wasn’t suitable for confirming a relationship with any of the girls in the team.”

“That’s exactly it, Aske!” Miel was irritated, gritting her teeth and shouting, “You’re so cautious, always worrying about inexplicable risks, risks, risks! Before returning to that world, you did the sa thing—worrying you might not make it back, you’d rather keep everyone in suspense than respond. Now you’re going to do the sa thing because you’re worried about a chaotic scene, I’m really fed up with you!”

She angrily threw herself at Aske, pounding his chest a few tis. Aske grabbed her hands, questioning:

“Aren’t the things you’ve been doing a problem? Nora wants to sever ties with Eleanor, and Eleanor goes north to fight dea and Sigrdrifa—this is what you call a better outco?”

“Fighting amongst us is inevitable; even if you choose not to accept anyone and delay our confessions, the sa.” Miel blushed slightly and broke free, explaining, “If you keep everyone hanging, letting everyone beco completely hopeless about you ‘making a statent,’ they’ll inevitably turn to removing their rivals instead.”

“Uh, no way,” Aske hesitated.

“There absolutely will be!” Miel stomped her feet in frustration, “Look! Just the rumor of ‘you marrying Eleanor,’ and Sigrdrifa fights her. If everyone’s kept hanging for years, never receiving a clear answer, when pent-up resentnt and killing intent explode uncontrollably, imagine how cruel the hellish scene within the team will be! Think about it!”

Aske: ………..

Ah, what Miel said does make so sense; perhaps I was not thorough in my consideration.

“Ahem,” he coughed awkwardly and asked, “But you can’t make choices for either.”

“If the version of you from the original world line wasn’t so passive and useless, why would I be helping you with a harem? Idiot Aske,” Miel retorted irritably.

Aske: ???

“Bringing happiness to everyone ultimately relies on you to think about it, not on my observations and future adjustnts!” Miel got angrier the more she thought, adopting a small adult posture and unrestrainedly scolding Aske, “Delaying won’t have a good outco! Shalessly dragging along the girls who admire you; be careful or else the despairing ones will end up killing you!”

“It won’t be that severe, right?” Aske remained skeptical, “I think you’re exaggerating the danger.”

“Believe what you want.” Miel puffed up her cheeks angrily, before finally saying, “As for what exactly to do, do you need teaching? Just be nicer to them! Can’t you tell from Eleanor’s radiant and happy appearance these past few days what you should do?”

“But I’m already married…” Aske still had reservations.

“Aaaaahhh.” Miel rolled her eyes helplessly, sarcastically questioning, “Because you’re married to Eleanor, does that an the years Nora waited were for nothing? The daughter dea bore you, are you discarding her too? What about all the other girls who love you deeply, are you planning to give up on them all?”

“Squad Leader, when did you beco such a heartless jerk who starts and abandons relationships?”

Aske: ???

Wait a minute, betraying Eleanor to be with other girls would also make a jerk, wouldn’t it? But Miel does have a point… In the end, no matter what I choose, it’s just picking between being a jerk type A or jerk type B?

“Anyway, stop staying in Aachen Palace all day. If Nora and dea co to find you, go out and see them, listen to their thoughts and opinions, alright? Hmph, I’m leaving!”

Miel turned to leave, but Aske quickly pulled her back:

“Wait, are you just planning to brush off privately arranging things for the Squad Leader so lightly?”

“What do you want in order to forgive ?” Miel turned around, cautiously crossing her arms over her chest, “First off, I’m not that kind of woman like dea. Anything involving giving my body is to be done after marriage! After marriage, understand?”

Aske: ???

No, that’s not what I ant. At least you could apologize to …

Before he could speak, Miel suddenly thought of sothing, smiling bitterly with resignation:

“I get it, you’ve tasted the sweetness. Since Eleanor has been gone for so long, with so much pent-up, you can’t hold back anymore, right? Sigh, in fact, it’s not that it can’t be done, especially since Maya taught another way…”

She bit her lip slightly, feeling shy, yet mustering the courage to step closer and grab the hem of Aske’s clothes.

……….

In a parallel world’s Aachen Palace.

In this world line, Eleanor hadn’t brought Aske back, so there was no strict guard scheduled around the palace.

Miel, who ca to the parallel world, utilized the ability of the Banshee Queen, sneaking out of the palace invisibly and running outside Aachen City, before returning to the sa position in her original world.

Upon returning to this world, she took out ordinary water, gulped a few mouthfuls, and checked the world line again:

Whew, it’s returned to normal after all.

It indicates that the Squad Leader indeed listened to her… or rather, the Squad Leader is also a creature thinking with his lower half. Because she sched against him, she must appease him and rebuild the close relationship to win back his trust.

In fact, when Aske sensed that it might be Miel manipulating fate behind the scenes, purposefully staying in Aachen Palace without leaving, Miel’s observed world line imdiately veered away from her original plan.

Her skill, [Destiny], after all, is rely about adjusting probabilities, not arbitrarily changing them. However one tosses a coin, Miel can make it face heads or tails but can’t suddenly transform it into a Gundam—sothing with an infinitely small probability is simply not going to happen.

Initially, when facing Eleanor’s proposal, if it wasn’t for Aske having an impulse to agree with her, the possibility of that developnt would not exist, and Miel wouldn’t be able to turn it into reality.

Similarly, if he later determined to stay within the Great Palace without leaving, Miel wouldn’t have been able to do anything to him.

If he didn’t go out, Nora or dea coming to find him would have had to break into Aachen Palace forcibly.

Under these circumstances of forcibly entering the palace, or even killing Eleanor’s guards, Aske’s probability of agreeing to go with them is very low, leading to a series of dark possibilities moving further away from the Happy End.

Thus, Miel could only appear in advance, scold and criticize the foolish Squad Leader extensively, pointing out that regarding this matter, he was trendously naïve, impetuousness is absolutely unacceptable.

Now upon seeing the world line return to normal, Miel finally breathed a sigh of relief and massaged her sore cheeks.

Without utilizing the Eden Fruit for mind manipulation, arranging fate to comply with the designated route indeed proves quite challenging.

In the future, let the Squad Leader make his own decisions; I just have to help him eliminate so wrong answers.
