(EP-43.2) Too Many #4
043 – Too Many Secrets #4
Narmi and I chatted for a while near the balcony.
We mainly talked about the Status Window. I was able to figure out that it was not sothing anyone could just receive.
“So only warriors that pass a secret esoteric ritual can obtain a System?”
“Yes! That is why only the senior students of the Church receive the blessing… Oh my-!”
After talking for a while, Mirna suddenly trembled.
“What’s wrong?”
“My sister seems to be slowly waking up! If I get caught doing this, I’ll be in big trouble! I have to hurry back…!”
Narmi hastily explained.
“Please keep it a secret that you t today, okay? My sister doesn’t like talking to anyone. She hates it when I do so. Please keep quiet about this…!”
“Oh, if that’s the case, of course I won’t say anything.”
“Really? You’re more of a nice guy than I thought! Anyways, it was nice speaking with you…”
A ‘nice’ guy…
Was it possible to put such an adjective before ? In the past, maybe, but not now at least.
Narmi, the younger one of the twin sisters, seed like a good and kind person to .
Should I say that she was pure, without any hints of hypocrisies and lies?
Talking with her made feel at ease, to the point that I ended up unknowingly chatting about this and that.
… However, unlike Narmi, I was not a nice and kind person. In fact, it would be more accurate to describe as a poisonous scorpion.
“But, I have conditions.”
“Co-, conditions?”
“Miss Narmi must also keep it a secret from everyone that I was here today, what you saw earlier and everything we talked about. Everything.”
“Ah!”
At this ti, Narmi blushed, realizing my aning. Perhaps it reminded her of what Elga and I did.
“Asking to keep a secret… Is it about you and Lady Lioness kissing?”
“Have you seen everything that’s happened?”
“No, I haven’t seen anything at all! I only saw you two kissing, but I got so surprised that I closed my eyes…!”
It was a relief that she didn’t see do sothing more ‘indecent’ than kissing…
Even so, there was still the danger of being dragged to the guillotine if this was discovered.
Narmi then said.
“It’s love that transcends status…. Like Roo and Juliet. I’ve seen it a lot in books, but this is actually the first ti I’ve seen sothing like that in real life. I’ll be rooting for you…!”
“You’re cheering on?”
“Yes, yes!”
If it was Mirna, she might have used this to blackmail and have at her rcy.
anwhile, Narmi would not only keep this a secret, she was even supportive of it?
It was crazy how two sisters who shared the sa body could be so polar opposite of each other…
Anyway, I replied in moderation.
“Thank you very much! It’s really not easy being with soone beyond your status… Lady Lioness is the daughter of a great family, while I am a re commoner that was once a slave…”
This was half acting, half sincere.
The golden ratio of half truth and false.
Right now, I was a lover trying to pursue an impossible love, walking down a path full of thorns.
“A great family…. Hey, I’m a Draco, so maybe I can help!”
“Help?”
“Yes! Like how do the young misses of great families fall in love? What do they like? I might even be able to tell you what kind of gift they would like to receive from a man!”
“Oh, by any chance, does Lady Narmi have a lot of experience in dating? But you’re such a beautiful person, so it makes sense that you would….”
Narmi trembled, as if caught off guard by my question.
“… That, of course! I have more than ten lovers! I have had plenty of experience!”
This was clearly a lie. Anyone who saw it would know imdiately…
Narmi really had no talent for lying.
There was no way she could be an expert at love when she had to sneak around in the middle of the night unbeknownst to her sister.
Perhaps, this was her sister’s experience?
Did she have a lot of dating experience? No, that couldn’t be. Her older sister, Mirna Draco, was a devout maniac. That villainess was soone very conservative in matters concerning the opposite s£x.
Anyway.
This developnt was good for .
Now, all that was left was how to straighten the sails as the wind blew.
Thus, I put on a rather desperate expression.
“Then, can you help ? It would really an a lot if I could ask Narmi-nim, who is knowledgeable about dating, for so help.”
“Yeah, of course! I’ll help you! So… How do you want to help…? I was the Love Doctor of Corvant….”
The seemingly restless Narmi said with confidence.
Was it due to her anxiousness of being discovered that she actually lacked dating experience?
「You have calmly judged the situation!
You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.
All job experience 5」
This was so easy to guess…
Also, how cute.
I said with a serious face, holding back the smile that was about to co out.
“Can you see every Wednesday night or so? I want to regularly ask you about dating. Furthermore, I also want to report the situation every week and get so advice on what to do.”
Keeping in touch with Narmi.
To be precise, I was seeking a way to have friendly and continuous relations with the Draco Family. This was my plan.
I thought the best way to control and ta them was to have them close to first.
However, Narmi began to mumble and rub the floor with her shoes, showing an uneasy look.
“Every week…? It’s hard to do it so often… I think I’ll be able to sneak from my sister’s at least once a week…. But if she finds out….”
“Of course, how could I forget? I can also help Narmi-nim, if necessary!”
“Heueung…. Alright!”
After thinking about it for a while, my offer for help managed to move Narmi. Give and take was definitely the best combo!
“Well….”
“Does Narmi-nim want to say sothing?”
“No, it’s nothing… If I’m going to help you with your relationship, I need to know more about the situation. So….”
I patiently waited for Narmi to finish speaking. Finally, after a while…
“So how far did you two go…? You and Lady Lioness, I an.”
Was she asking about the progress of skinship between and Elga?
While I was thinking whether to answer honestly or lie, Narmi waved her hand at my silence.
“Of course, I am not asking this out of curiosity or selfishness! In order to help you, I need to know…!”
… She seed very interested in hearing other people’s love stories. Maybe I should just lie?
“That was actually our first kiss today.”
“Really…!? First ti today…? Wow, so I witnessed your first!”
“Yes, but because I was very clumsy, Lady Lioness got angry and left….”
“So you an, your kissing was awkward and it dissatisfied Lady Lioness.”
“It isn’t good for a man to not know how to kiss, right? Young noble ladies of great families seem to feel that way.”
“Right! First of all, we like a romantic, perfect kiss. Being clumsy has its own charm, but…. If it were , it would be among beautiful flowers under the moonlight….”
It was then that I realized.
I could get sothing from this situation…
“Narmi-nim, could you please teach the correct way to kiss?”
