073 – Clean Up and Aftermath #2

“Then, please give me a moment, I’ll send a carrier pigeon to the Angmar Court. I’ll need to inform them of this sudden promotion.”

I came up with a reasonable excuse to take a break from all these shenanigans. Mirna then pointed to the balcony.

“If it’s a pigeon, you can go to the balcony over there. You can use it, Theo Gospel.”

“Hey, when you send the pigeon, also tell my dad to contact me, understand?”

Leaving with Elga’s threat, I went out to the balcony. The cool spring breeze touching my face calmed me down a bit.

Why, this?

Why did this happen?

Besides me, some other Angmar descendant was still alive? Aleister Draco and Reinhardt Lioness were hiding that fact?

And would I need to look for them?

Why did the story unfold like this!?

It was such a weird and ironic situation that I started doubting if Aira knew the truth and was doing this on purpose.

━I’ll do my best.

I answered like this for now, but I was basically forced to go look for myself.

Why did Aira order to find the descendants of the Angmar Family? There was only one answer. To get rid of them.

As the Queen, that was a given.

The name Angmar meant war.

A huge war against a human devil that took place about a century ago.

A civil war with the remnants of Angmar that had been going on for decades.

In this light, the Demon King’s family always drove war.

If those who were hostile against Aira learnt about the descendants of the former dynasty, it would no doubt rouse a rebellion.

Hence, for Aira, it was a wise decision to quickly extinguish the spark before it turned into a full-blown wildfire.

Normally, I should be happy for Aira’s character development and for making such a wise decision. However, that flash of wisdom was now used against me…

“Eum.”

Come to think of it, was it not advantageous for my survival if Aira was an indolent and lax Queen…?

Seureuk.

Then I felt the balcony door open behind me.

“Is it Lady Mirna?”

“… You could tell, even without looking back.”

“Let’s say I have a good sense.”

Mirna Draco stepped out onto the balcony, interrupting my thoughts. Did Aira send her to monitor me?

Of course, that couldn’t be it, but just in case – I took a peek and saw that both Aira and Elga were leaning on their backs on the soft sofa with their eyes closed.

“I guess it’s time for a break?”

“Yes, that’s why I came out to get some fresh air.”

“I see.”

“There’s a lot of things that happened today, so I need to organize my head like this.”

It was something I’d felt for a long time, but Mirna talked a lot without realizing it. It was the same with her sister, Narmi. Were these sisters really that alike?

Could they talk to each other?

How would they even talk?

Was Narmi sleeping right now?

Many questions filled my mind. This was probably my mental defense mechanism.

It was the same as when the exam date was fast approaching. The newspaper articles that you didn’t give any prior shi† would suddenly become interesting.

My mind, now faced with a big problem, couldn’t process the issue and wanted to divert its attention elsewhere.

「You have calmly judged the situation!

You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.

All job experience +5」

Pwa.

As I was calming myself down, Mirna hesitantly came over.

“Hey, Theo. Don’t misunderstand what I’m about to say.”

“Is there something that you would like to tell me?”

“It’s not a big deal. Still, I have to say it. Can you keep what happened here today a secret?”

“A secret?”

What happened today?

As I was deep in my thoughts, Mirna broke the silence first.

“Don’t pretend you don’t know, Theo Gospel. You touched my chest!”

“… What?”

Did I touch Mirna’s chest?

I thought that was impossible, then I remembered that while relieving Mirna of her curse, I also wiped her body with a wet towel.

So much had happened today that I forgot about this. On the topic, I couldn’t help but be reminded of the pair of soft breasts under that school uniform blouse.

Gguuuuk.

Currently, her chest was pressed against the balcony railing, molding around its shape. While I uselessly thought about how good it would be if I were the railing – like a fool – Mirna continued.

“It would be good for you to keep it a secret. I wanted to think that it was part of the treatment, but you were kneading the breasts of the Young Lady of a great family like dough… As a commoner, it is unacceptable!”

Kneading it like dough? 

I really did clean her in good faith and without thinking of anything lewd.

But instead of rejection, a funny feeling rose from my body. I couldn’t help but burst into laughter, which naturally confused Mirna.
