Chapter 118 - Mission Impossible (5)

The weather was still niceWhen they left Aedia, it had been winterIt was the last part of spring in Paladia

Artpe and the holy priestess continued to have a date in the same location as they enjoyed the nice weatherThey had done this for six straight days

“Hero-nim, I made you some apple tartsWould you like to have a taste?”

“AhYesI'll have someAs it happens, I wanted to eat soht have been better to bake a quiche filled with ”

“NoI eat meat every day, so this is fine”

Vadinet took out a tart loaded with apple and whipped cream, and she place it on the tableArtpe looked at her with bitter eyesHowever, he was met with blue eyes that shone with lifeShe was filled with great expectation as her eyes re'

During the past six days, he had tried various sHe tried very hardHowever, he had barely ressAt the very least, that was his opinion

This hy he was rethinking his plan at that pointMaybe, the plan rong frohts

“I'll cut it, so it'll be easier for you to eat……ah”

Vadinet took out a knife that looked well matched with her, and she enthusiastically cut the tart into piecesIt ination, but it looked as if Vadinet suddenly had an ideaHer cheeks became dyed red

Afterwards, she picked up a fork, and she stabbed at a bite-sized piece of the tartShe raised it towards Artpe's mouth

“Wwould it be better if I feed this to you?”

“I'll just eat…Never to refuse her in the beginning, but he hurriedly changed his words when he saw the disappointed expression on her faceIf Maetel found out about this, the holy priestess would be killedHowever, if that happened, it was fate

“Is it tasty, hero-niht as he ate as given to himThe holy maiden was so happy that she didn't knohat to do with herselfThis sight made him rethink his response

“YesAt the very least, it is the tastiest tart I've tasted”

“Ah, jeezHero-nim…”

“In truth, this is the first time I've eaten a tart”

“That's really badI'll make a lot more tarts for youFrom now on, you have to only eat tarts made by meHoo-hooht”

As expected, this plan was flawed froFrom the moment she met him, her fondness towards him had been maxed outSo hoas he supposed to seduce her more!

'I don't understand herThere is no way I can understand her……'

Artpe ended the date a little bit early, and he returned to his roo with MaetelIt was the original rooned to hi

“You are here?”

“Yeshello, Aria”

“Yyes, sirI am happy Artpe-nim looks well…”

She should be used to him by now, but Aria became nervous every time she faced ArtpeSilpennon spoke bluntly when he saw this

“The way you treat him is different from how you treat me?”

“That's because Mr Silpennon is Mr Silpennon······?”

Aria turned to look at Silpennon, and she spoke in a comfortable manner as she answered hihtly hurt by her wordsSilpennon wondered if he should tell her that he used to be the crown prince of DiazHe wonder if that would allow hiave up on that ideaHe thought he would look pathetic if he did that

“Silpennon, how are you doing on your side?”

“By the sound of your sagging voice, I can tell that you haven'tslared hard at Silpennon, who had went straight for the jugularHowever, Silpennon continued to lay out the documents in a leisurely s won't bring about any progressYou areelse Of course, if your plan is to preserve the office of the holy priestess after you bring down the te any progress with her?”

“In the mind of the holy priestess, the relationshi+p with you and her is already coht on the moneyThe holy priestess had considered Artpe to be her mate froe in her ood will towards Artpe and the hostility towards Maetel were running down parallel lines

“How is that possible?That is what I'Even if her delusion is severe, we just met, so how can she…”

“That is…It is hard to verbalize”

In his past life, the holy priestess had loved SilpennonThis was a truth that he had clung toThere wasn't a hint of doubt in his mind about thatArtpe couldn't overco to himselfAt that moment, Aria carefully spoke up

“Maybe, it's because Artpe-nim is handsome······?”

“······”

“······”

Artpe's eyes narrowedSilpennon looked at Aria with a siazeAria became flustered as she tried to explain herself

“AhNo!You aren't simply handsome…I think you are so handsoht!”

“You are quite bold in your confession”

Silpennon sounded baffled, and this ave her denial

“That is… Of course, I think Artpe-nim is handsome, but it isn't like that!…anyways, it isn't like that!”

“You can speak the truthThat man is a lecherHe likes it more when there is ry at Silpennon's account of the eventHer ears becaht re for the past couple daysThis hy he had unintentionally been in a position to study the anatomy of a woman's heartThis hy he was uncharacteristically keen in realizing souess it was to be expected'

From Maetel's perspective, Artpe was her princeFrom Aria's perspective, Silpennon was probably her princeShe had been living a life of a maid, yet a thief had found her as if by fate On top of that, he was an extre around the te with him to find out the corruption within the templeIt really was a storyline froe if she didn't have any interest in Silpennon!

“Why do all women fall for Artpe?Even our Leseti speaks his name once or twice a dayShe speaks his naically summoned in front of her”

It seemed Silpennon was cluelessHe was the quintessential obtuse main character
