42 42... Im not bothering you. (1/2)
”Me?
I unexpectedly doubted Nigel's words.
”Why are you asking me?
”I don't know. But according to Adolf's report, the man said,” I will acquit the false Virgin! ”Give me the false Virgin.”
”--Eh!”
Hearing the word 'False Virgin', I took a breath.
It is in this country that I was the Virgin of the Kingdom of Berkaim, Nigel. And His Majesty the King... and Ralph, you only know the Douglas.
Moreover, the opponent purposely calls it the ”Fake Virgin”.
This is....
”Officials of the Kingdom. Besides, it's pretty close to royalty. It would be natural to think so.”
Nigel agreed, I say.
”Anyway, Elaine doesn't have to worry about anything. You don't have to go out of your way to swallow his demands. I want us to handle this.”
And Nigel covered for me.
Sure, following a man's request here means jumping into that pocket.
Bring me back now... I don't think so, but it's not going to be a peaceful discussion.
Worst of all, throwing myself on the spot could cost me my life.
But...
”Nigel, take me to the man.”
When I stared straight back into Nigel's eyes, he said, ”Oh, silly!” and shouted,
”You don't have to do that! If there's anything dangerous to you, it's irreversible. [M] Please, Elaine. You stay here.”
and kept on panicking.
Nigel is right.
But —— I'm more likely to be the cause of this.
I don't want to bother you as much as I can than let you stay in this country.
So...
”I'm not just a princess. I'll do it myself, Nigel. And if so, are you struggling with a violent monster and a man? I'm sure my virginity will help.”
”But....”
I persuade Nigel, but he never nods.
Holy shit.
Convincing Nigel is harder than dealing with the mysterious man.
I was worried about what was going on.
”I told you that story too.”
And Ralph.
And suddenly the door of the room opened, and one of them came in from the hallway.
”Douglas... and Ralph!? What's the matter with you?
Yes, it is.
It was Douglas and Ralph who entered the room momentarily.
Douglas smiled slightly.
”Oh, there was something interesting going on. I had Elaine followed me.”
Ralph agreed. But Ralph isn't half as interested as he is. I thought it was Elaine's pinch and ran. ”
You're eavesdropping... you have a bad taste.
But now is not the time to say such a thing.
”Do I look like I'm planning something?
”Hmm. Your feelings are well conveyed. You don't think you can bother this country. It's a win-win idea.”
