Chapter 38 (2/2)

「You called〜? Lucio-kun」

「Yeah, come her for a bit」

I hugged Nadia who came to my side just the same.

「Eh〜, what’s up」

Nadia was different from Sylvia, she wrapped her arms around me, and hugged back the same.

She embraced very tightly, and showed affection.

I looked towards the boy.

He seemed very frustrated, he had eyes that could kill a person with hatred.

I see, it’s about Nadia huh.

I let go of Nadia. I looked at her hand.

The ring that she is wearing on her ring finger was still there.

It’s a ring made with magic, an item that would break at the instance she would cheat.

It was there as usual.

「What is it, Lucio-kun」

「U〜n. Do you know him?」

I said that, and pointed at the boy.

Nadia looked at the boy.

「U〜n」

She tilted her head, she’s doing her best to think.

「U〜n」

She groaned, she desperately thought of it.

「U〜n」

「I got it already, that’s enough」

I stopped Nadia who had the air, that it wouldn’t come out no matter how much she thinks of it.

「By the way, did someone say they like you recently? Or did someone give you a present」

「Not at all〜. I’ve been teased though」

「Teased?」

「Un, like being scared by a caterpillar in a branchーーoh, it’s him」

Nadia suddenly remembered.

「Oi oi」

“Really, that one”, I thought.

The pattern that elementary school boys teases the girl they like.

But, I get the story.

He likes Nadia, and came to her husband, me, to break up.

The saddest thing about it, he wasn’t almost in Nadia’s memories, his existence was almost not recognized.

I thought of it sadly instead.

「He came to play tricks on me again huh. I’ll go complain for a bit」

「It’s okay」

I stopped Nadia.

「Leave him alone」

「But〜」

「It’s okay」

「Un, I got it」

Nadia nodded honestly.

「In exchange, can I ask something」

「What?」

「If he bullies me again the next time, Lucio should exterminate him」

Exterminate, you say, that’s not peaceful.

「Ne! Please」

She asked for it placing her palms together.

Nadia’s that gesture was super cute.

「I got it」

I nodded.

「Wa〜i. Then, I’ll let him go today」

She said that, hugged me once, and Nadia returned to the mansion very joyfully.

I looked at at the boy.

When that time comes, I’d at least hold back, I thought.
