The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

Chapter 288 - The Fox Tail Has Many Uses

Of course, the reason Samantha would ask such a thing wasn't because she believed Noelle was incapable of coming up with such an idea, but because she knew that the gray-haired lady generally didn't like doing these types of things.

Having spent so many years together, Sam knew very well that Noelle would rather spend time improving herself than sabotaging her opponents.

Noelle's expression immediately turned worse as she glared at the taller girl. "…This idea is mine. Why…? You believe I can't think of it myself?"

She hadn't even told Emilia about the origins of this gun yet. Although she understood that Emilia was sure to do this kind of thing according to her troublemaking nature, Noelle still didn't like how Sam seemingly looked down on her.

The taller girl just seemed to realize she had sleepily stumbled upon a landmine, and hurriedly backtracked on her words while waving her hands in surrender. "N-No no, i-it's not as if I'm doubting your ability! I-I just…"

Sam coughed. "… well, n-never expected a suggestion like this from you? You know, since you usually advise me against things that cause chaos."

Noelle's expression had just started easing when Sam seemingly decided it was the perfect time to put her foot in her mouth.

"But when I think about it… you really have been hanging out with Emilia a lot recently, and all you two do is cause trouble here and there… no wonder you got influenced!"

When Crystal opened her eyes the next morning, for a moment she wondered if she was dreaming.

After all, even though they had been sleeping together for a while at her home, Crystal had rarely woken up to the sight of her gorgeous lover peacefully snuggling into her arms.

Usually, by the time she opened her eyes, Emilia would already have her breakfast ready and served in bed. Most of the time, she would even wake her up with a kiss.

The blonde girl had always felt like that was the best way to start a new day. After all, how many in the world were lucky enough to enjoy such a luxurious treatment? But today, she discovered that perhaps she had been missing out on something even better.

Looking at the adorable little crimson fox ears twitch on top of the beautiful girl's head, Crystal wished she could just freeze time and stay like this forever. Obviously, after Emilia had helped her wash up and go to bed, she still hadn't put away her fox ears and tail.

Reaching under the blanket, Crystal couldn't help but grope at the fluffy thing, squeezing it gently with delight.

Recalling how Emilia had used it as a loofah to rub foam over her body while helping her wash before bed, Crystal couldn't help close her eyes in an attempt to restrain herself, but the heat still coiled at her core all the same.

How can someone be so cute and sexy at the same time?!

A gentle knock at the door broke the heroine out of her thoughts, and she almost ended up cursing at whoever it was that dared to disturb her at this time. Fortunately, the person seemed to assume they were still sleeping and left.

Crystal couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the time. 'That must have been Michelle or another one of the maids, right? I guess they'll be back soon. I should just… wake her up.'

The blonde girl knew that although Emilia was usually accommodating, she was actually very easy to get shy, and thus unlikely to let her play around in this kind of 'shameful' form too often.

Moreover, since Emilia had been keeping her beauty reduced, it was very likely that this gorgeous form in her arms would also be toned down, and she may not be able to gaze at this goddess again for tens, or even hundreds of thousands of seconds!

Biting her lip, the blonde girl carefully lifted the blanket and set it aside to burn the beautiful scenery into her mind properly.

Gently caressing the fluffy fox tail, Crystal could only sigh at the fact that all of her hard work from last night had long since vanished, leaving only flawless skin on the bare form of the goddess in her arms. The only consolation was that Crystal could always cheer herself up by thinking she could do it all over again.

The gentle morning sun shining through the window gave Emilia's silky skin a unique glow, and also allowed Crystal to observe everything in far more detail than the artificial light before.

The gentle wake-up call came to the heroine's throat, but she ended up swallowing it. Even if it was only a few minutes until the maid came back again, every moment with her was precious, how could she just give it up?

Emilia frowned in her sleep as she unconsciously tried to swat the palm that was fondling her tail unceremoniously, but Crystal quickly pulled her into a hug to prevent her from moving around.

Thankfully, the crimson-haired girl soon dozed off into deeper slumber, allowing the heroine to breathe out a sigh of relief.

At that moment, there was suddenly another knock at the door.

"Come in."

It was only when the words were already out of her throat that Crystal realized their current state, and hurriedly pulled the blanket up to cover her lover.

What a joke! Not to mention anything else, how could she allow anyone else to see Emilia's fluffy fox tail and ears?! Even if every single servant in the mansion was completely loyal, that could still lead to a disaster!

Michelle had just entered the room, her mouth opening to greet them with a gentle smile and a 'good morning', when she froze in shock at the scene before her.

"…"

In the tense silence, the heroine finally grit her teeth and smiled tightly. "W-What did Michelle need? Should I wake Emilia up?"

The older girl fiddled awkwardly with her maid uniform. "W-Well… I-I just wanted to let young miss know that her older sister returned last night, b-but I was told not to let anyone enter, a-and she's sulking downstairs… should I let her come?"
