A face that was lovely no matter how many times I saw it.
Even standing next to Iris, she shone brightly. Her name was Chloe Yates, the heroine of this world's story. So why had this woman—the one I absolutely had to conquer—shown up at the mansion again? Honestly, it left me flustered, but... it wasn't a bad thing. She was top priority on my list of people to get close to. This was a chance for us to learn about each other.
I kept my composure, feigning calm as I greeted her with a bright smile.
"Nice to meet you, Lady Chloe."
"Oh! Nice to meet you too, Lord Ruin. I've been dying to see you again!"
Chloe waved at me with a beaming smile. Was she always this friendly? Iris standing beside her was a concern, but... thankfully, she didn't seem to mind. She watched us warmly, thinking something like, Of course she would, she's like a big sister... What was this? Had she fallen for Chloe? It was a rare glimpse of the innocent Iris.
"...Me?"
"Last time, I didn't get to greet you properly. I wanted to thank you right... Hehe, I was so nervous given the circumstances. So, here... a gift!"
"This is..."
"It's a magic tool I invented called a fan! Consider it my way of saying thanks."
What? Modern knowledge cheat?
Chloe called over a servant to show off the waist-high magic tool. It looked a bit different from what I knew, but the structure—using blades to generate wind—confirmed it was exactly what I thought.
The protagonist really lives up to the name.
I wasn't sure if she'd been transported here or reincarnated, but Chloe definitely wasn't native to this world. That meant she probably missed her homeland... Maybe I could use that to win her over?
I racked my brain, plotting my next moves. Then, pretending to be amazed by the fan, I played dumb. If I acted clueless and brought up her homeland, she'd feel a strange sense of familiarity. Since observation didn't work on her, I'd start with the little things.
"You said it's an... invention?"
"That's right, Lord Ruin! Impressive, huh? Big Sis Chloe made it herself!"
"Oh, Iris! I didn't make it alone. I just came up with the idea."
"That's what makes it impressive!"
On the flip side, Chloe probably had something like observation herself... so winning over pure Iris must've been easy. It looked like they'd bonded while I was away on business. Seeing the two beauties grinning ear to ear lifted my spirits too.
If things went according to plan, I could get a double blowjob out of the two of them...
Kuh... Just imagining it got me excited already.
"Lady Iris is right. A magic tool that generates its own wind? Truly astonishing. Even commoners without mana could stay cool in summer with this. It embodies noblesse oblige—a splendid creation."
"Oh, you even thought that far ahead... As expected of you, Lord Ruin!"
"R-Really?"
"Iris has told me so much about you. She said you're always thinking of your patients!"
Looks like she'd sung my praises while I was gone.
My act as the "knowledgeable doer" had paid off. She already seemed fond of me before we even talked... Thanks, Iris. The mood was perfect. I could ride this wave into NTR territory. After a brief exchange of greetings, I prepared to head back to my room.
Forcing the conversation here would've been amateur hour.
"Oh, wait! Let me show you how to use it too!"
"Ah... I'd appreciate that."
"Then, Iris, mind if I borrow Lord Ruin for a bit?"
"B-Borrow him? Hehe..."
But there are always exceptions.
Showing me how to use it was just an excuse. Just slot in a magic stone and you're done—what was there to teach? What Chloe really wanted was honest feedback and details on what happened with Masha. Was she looking out for her own people? Either way, it was good for me. Alone with her now, I did my best to make a great impression.
"You called it a fan, right?"
"Yes, what do you think?"
"It's good, but it's too big. Takes up a lot of space... Couldn't you make a smaller, portable version? Most commoners work outdoors, so that might help more. ...Ah, of course, I didn't mean this one's bad!"
"Portable... fan..."
"Sorry, Lady Chloe. This is plenty good too..."
"You're amazing, Lord Ruin!"
"...Pardon?"
"Why didn't I think of that? A portable fan would use less magic stone too... And depending on the design, nobles might carry them... Aah, seriously! I messed up on the key part. It was such an obvious idea..."
"G-Glad you like it. I worried I'd overstepped."
"Not at all! I love the suggestion!"
Talking about stuff from her homeland really hit the spot. She got all excited, like, Oh yeah, that existed!... Fitting for a protagonist. Her muttering to herself out loud was kinda funny. When I tossed in more realistic ideas, she clapped and beamed... She's got a surprisingly innocent side. I could feel her favorability rising.
"Oh, so you and Iris aren't a thing?"
"Just doctor and patient... W-Well, former patient."
"And now?"
"Her personal physician... something like that?"
"What? That's super suspicious!"
Even with small talk, she giggled and played along... No wonder she's the heroine. Chloe had a natural charm that drew people in. Her face and figure were flawless, but her personality made her even more captivating.
Who could hate a girl who listens so intently with that joyful expression?
It almost made me feel like an alpha male.
Chloe knew how to handle men... no, people, like no one else.
"So that's why Masha kept it secret? I thought malnutrition was odd."
"Lady Masha's the type who fixates on her goals..."
"Hehehe, I wanna go tease her right now... But I've got business trips starting tomorrow. Working for the palace is great, but... ugh, it's so Spartan."
"Spartan? Sounds intense."
"Ah, yeah! Spartan does sound tough, right? It's crazy how well we click. Hehe, is it your doctor instincts or something?"
"Haha, dealing with all kinds of patients sharpens your intuition."
"Aha! Makes sense. Everything has a reason, huh?"
And that's when I realized...
Wait, I'm in danger.
Chloe had abilities like mine. If she met Masha, she'd learn about Arbo Somnium too. Aaa... Damn. Things would get messy. I couldn't just think, She'll cure it. I needed to get Arbo Somnium from Masha ASAP before complications arose. No more variables.
Which meant I had to meet Masha soon and sleep with her...
Sigh, maybe ask Serpin for help?
I'd take a few hits, but it wasn't a secret I could keep forever.
"Does the palace give unreasonable orders?"
"Well... I'm actually the prince's personal physician... Haaah, it's complicated. Super dangerous stuff—if I say more, you might get dragged in too, Lord Ruin."
"I-I see... You're his physician?"
"Ah?! That's classified... Wait, no, not really. Everyone who matters knows. Yeah, I am... Hehe, but a kinda weird one."
And today, I got some crucial info.
Chloe was already tied to Lucius.
As his physician too—did she use observation-like skills for doctoring? No time to leisurely check knights. I needed to become his physician and start countering her. Princes have multiple doctors, right? So hurry up, conquer Serpin, and get her to recommend me to Lucius.
"Weird physician?"
"Mm... It's a thing. Anyway, Lord Ruin! This was so much fun."
"Haha, same here."
"Hope we meet again soon."
"Me too."
"Well then... See you!"
-Creak
"You two done chatting?"
But even the strongest mountains look different after a meal.
The chat dragged on, and Iris finally started getting jealous. For the future, I should soothe her now. Not fully cured yet, so tease her right up to the edge. As I thought that... before the door closed, an uninvited guest arrived. Sirius, after a long while.
"Was chatting with my sister that fun?"
"Lady Chloe talked a lot about you."
"Ah... A-About me?"
"She said she spent all night telling me about what happened while you were away..."
"U-Ugh! Forget that! Let's get started! Time for your treatment!"
Looks like he was spying on us with that invisibility artifact again...
Should I end him today?
Stress was piling up, and here was the perfect target. He'd love watching his little sister lick my dick, right? Then sucking my cum, spreading her pussy herself, and grinding her hips in sumata... Heh heh heh, this'll be good. Time to torment Siwoo...
...N-No!
To reiterate, I felt nothing for Siwoo.
But Sirius? Totally different.
Correction: Tormenting Sirius felt great.
