Chapter 42 Busted
Chapter 42 Busted
?On the morning when Lyan left the House of Roses to went to the mercenary guild, the Madam saw him left from the window of the highest floor.
(Heh! Isn't that boy good? He made the three girls feel so quick and laid even laid Xena and Belle already. It's worrying, but gramps gave me the guarantee that he wouldn't be a bad egg. He has never been wrong in evaluating someone, so it should be fine, but...) (Madam)
"I guess I'm just not ready to let go of my precious little kittens yet, huh..." The Madam muttered under her breath as she let out a sigh.
(I've told that old guildmaster about him as well, if he managed to convince the guildmaster as a good egg, maybe it'll be enough for me to acknowledge him as well) (Madam)
"But he wouldn't die in the middle of the quest, wouldn't he?" The Madam muttered as she opened the door to her office where she handle the business reports and other stuff.
"What are you talking about? Die? Who? Who are you thinking of killing this time, Madam?" Asked a black-haired girl occupying her sofa with dead eyes on her face.
"What are you doing, Alina...? And your eyes look dead, you're fine?" (Madam)
"I'm fine, I'm fine. It's just... Imagining my best friends having an intense night with a person that I'm interested as well is kind of... Complicated..." (Alina)
"And since the both of them had done it, I kind of felt like I'm being left out, and annoyed because they got ahead of me. Well, we've decided the turns last night, but Xena didn't mention anything about going straight to him in the morning!" (Alina)
"Well, it's not like she did anything wrong, right? Why don't you just join them?" The Madam folded her arms as she let out another sigh.
"That's the problem, Madam! I don't have the courage to do anything like that so easily!! What should I say when I met him!? All I could remember is the moment when I screamed when he saved me from falling!! What should I do!? The next turn is mine, I'm excited, but I'm scared as hell!!" (Alina)
"Will he reject me, I wonder!? Not to mention... My body is leagues beyond Belle's and Xena's as well... I definitely wouldn't be looked at by him, wouldn't I, Madam!?" Alina shouts as she shakes the Madam with tears on the corner of her face.
"Hm... It's not surprising that you're scared. Now, Alina, do you trust me?" (Madam)
"Eh? Of course I do," (Alina)
"Then when he's about to go for a quest, you should try saying this to him," (Madam)
The Madam then whispered some words to Alina.
!?!?!?!?!?
"I-I should ask him that...?" Asked Alina with her face completely red because of embarrassment.
"Yes. And you should utilize your cuteness to its full potential. You'll find you fucking him when he back from his quest in no time then," (Madam)
****************************************
---Back to the current timeline---
"But isn't it dangerous? It means that you're going straight to the strongest goblins in their lair later in the subjugation, right?" Asked Belle, worried.
"Well, you're right. But I'll be fine, no need to worry about me," Lyan comforted Belle.
After the meeting, Lyan went back to the House of Roses to eat lunch together with them and tell them about today's mission. Since there's a possibility that he might not return tomorrow, he thought that it would be best to inform them first to make sure they wouldn't get worried.
"The seventh bell... Isn't it like several minutes from now!? You're going already!?" Alina exclaimed in surprise as she realized what hour this is.
"Yeah, seems so," Lyan replied with a shrug and a small sigh.
(T-This is the time!) (Alina)
"Muu... You've your fill 'bonding' with Xena and Belle, but you haven't spared any time for me..." Alina uttered under her breath, but she make sure that Lyan heard her voice.
"A-Alina!?" (Xena)
"Alina-chan..." (Belle)
But before Lyan could give a response, suddenly-
"L-Lyan! Lend me your ear!" Alina called Lyan with a determined look, motioning him to come and lend his ear.
"Hm? Okay..." Lyan bends his body down and approached her with his right ear.
Alina gathered her courage to say the words she learned from the Madam.
"When you came back, it's my turn to 'serve' you, okay?" Alina said with a whisper. She should be using a seductive tone, but whispering those words had taken most of her courage. She had her face completely red even to her ears and neck.
Lyan widened his eyes for a moment from Alina's words, but when he saw her red like tomato face, a smile got imprinted on his face.
Letting out a chuckle, Lyan pats her head.
"I guess that gives another reason for me to return as soon as possible," said Lyan gently.
Realizing that her plan succeed, A tear of joy fell from Alina's eyes as she secretly rejoiced inside her heart.
"A-Alina had sure grown..." (Xena)
"The Alina-chan that used to only have food inside her head..." (Belle)
Belle and Xena stared at the current Alina with a surprised look. She never thought that she would be able to take an initiative to make a move like that.
"Well, I guess it's time for me to go. It would be bad if I arrive late than the others," (Lyan)
"Wait," Xena held his hands, preventing him from taking his first step.
"Hm?" (Lyan)
*Kiss!*
Xena pecked his lips.
"It's a goodbye kiss, good luck out there," (Xena)
"Me too!" (Belle)
"M-Me too!" (Alina)
Belle gives Lyan a slightly longer kiss, but when she is about to insert her tongue, Alina splits them with a red face. And when it's Alina's turn, she's too embarrassed but she still managed to give him a small peck on his lips.
"Have a safe trip," (Belle)
"H-Have a safe trip!" (Alina)
Lyan chuckled.
"Yeah. I'm off," (Lyan)
Lyan left the House of Roses and headed towards the mercenary guild with a smile on his face before suddenly a sound of someone's scoff appeared inside his mind.
(Looks like someone is enjoying his youth. Having three cuties giving a goodbye kiss like that, you must have laid the three of them) (Griselda)
Griselda's words that are filled with sarcasm and scorn sounded inside Lyan's mind.
"I did not," (Lyan)
(Is that so? Do you think so as well, Hestia?) (Griselda)
(Nope. He definitely laid them already) (Hestia)
(See? Even Hestia thinks so as well. How about you, ice woman? I've defeated you in the last game, so you're obliged to let out your voice and answer the question of the winner) (Griselda)
(Hmph! How shameless of you to say that even though you lose most of the games) (Eira)
(Rather than that, what do you think about this guy? Did he laid them already?) (Griselda)
(I believe so) (Eira)
(You see? All of us believed that you've laid them. You must have taken the opportunity to do so since we're getting too absorbed playing the modern items in your room, right?) (Griselda)
(Do you really l-l-laid all of them, master....?) (Arturia)
"I did not," Lyan once again answered.
('Did not'? Not 'have not yet'? ) (Griselda)
(W-Why don't we ask C-Cynthia about it?) (Sylphia)
(You're right. What do you think, Cynthia? Is he lying or not?) (Griselda)
(Hm...) (Cynthia)
Cynthia seems to be pondering whether Lyan is lying or not.
(Unfortunately, He's not lying) (Cynthia)
(Huh? Really? He's not? But their expressions showed the faces of girls that already got laid by their men, though?) (Griselda)
(But!) (Cynthia)
Cynthia suddenly raised her voice, startling Lyan and the other spirits.
(Y-You're startling me, big sis Cynthia!) (Griselda)
(Our question is off. If I'm not mistaken, the only ones that have the faces of a woman that just had a lovely night are only the girl with the dark orangish-brown haired girl and the pink-haired girl!) (Cynthia)
(S-She's surprisingly observant in those things!) (Lyan)
(Hou... So Lyan, did you laid two of the three?) (Griselda)
Griselda once again asked him with a smug voice.
"If you're so curious, why don't you ask Lilith? She saw me last night, after all," Lyan tried his best to act as indifferent as he could.
(L-Lilith! I'm counting on you!) (Lyan)
(Hm... So Lilith? Did he laid them?) (Griselda)
(N-N-No?) (Lilith)
(She's too suck at lying!!) (Lyan)
Lyan lamented in his choice of depending on Lilith.
(Hou... So will you just admit it now? It's not like we're going to judge you because you laid two girls. It's the only way to increase the summonable monsters anyway, right) (Griselda)
"You're right... I did..." Lyan decided to answer truthfully. Hearing from Griselda that she and the others won't judge him because of it encourages him to stop lying and answer them. But-
(Heh! Scumbag!) (Griselda)
(Lowlife) (Hestia)
(P-Pervert!) (Sylphia)
(Lowlife? Pervert? Big bro is?) (Azelia)
(Scum) (Eira)
(Guh... I missed it...) (Cynthia)
"You missed it?" (Lyan)
(Sorry, Master. You got caught...) (Lilith)
"It's fine.... It's my fault for depending on you..." (Lyan)
(I don't mind, master. Men are interested in that stuff, right? A-And you need to do so to increase your strength as well... I definitely don't think you as indecent or a despicable pervert that loves to trick fragile young girls, okay?) (Arturia)
Arturia said coldly.
"L-Lady Arturia, your voice is the complete opposite of your words..." (Lyan)
