Chapter 437: Another Discovery
The next morning. As expected, I woke up feeling refreshed.
Haa. My angel truly is the best.
To think she could so easily fix my reversed sleep schedule.
Trying to fix it on your own is surprisingly hard, you know.
There’s the method of staying awake until the next night, but then you sometimes sleep for too long and wake up with your schedule still flipped.
But with my angel, I have nothing to worry about.
We work hard at night, and thanks to the effects of Healing Sex, I can greet the morning feeling perfectly fine.
It’s the best feeling in the world.
I spent the time peacefully stroking the hair of the angel sleeping soundly on top of me until Vanessa arrived.
“Good morning!”
“…Good morning…. You’re full of energy, Guwon….”
When I went down to the dining hall, I was greeted by Sara’s voice, which sounded less energetic than usual.
And for some reason, Matilda was right next to her, looking like she was about to do something.
“What’s wrong?”
“I slept too much, and now my head hurts….”
It seemed Sara had also struggled a bit with her sleep schedule being turned upside down.
“Want me to make it better?”
“Are you an idiot?”
Sara said that, but she still tilted her head slightly toward me.
You’re the idiot. After all, you’re the one who announced to everyone that you have anal sex with me. I-di-ot.
With that thought, I blew a puff of air into Sara’s ear.
“Kyaa! Y-You idiot!”
“You said it twice.”
“Ugh… You’re the one who said something weird first…. Oppa, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? You and Leia… ah, now that I think about it… Ugh….”
Perhaps because she wasn’t in her usual condition, Sara called me Oppa with little resistance, her voice slightly drained of energy.
Nice. If I keep training… no, educating her like this, the day she only calls me Oppa might not be just a dream.
But Sara soon muttered something as if she’d remembered, and she started glaring at me again.
Though, unlike usual, the fire in her glare wasn’t very strong.
No wonder. It was strange that she wasn’t glaring at me. There was no way she could have forgotten such a shocking event. It seemed her poor condition had made her temporarily forget to be angry.
What was I talking about?
What else? The incident with Diana yesterday, the argument.
She’d been glaring at me ever since she lost that argument, and there was no way a little sleep would make that go away.
Above all, it was a fight about who was the main wife, and Sara, who likes me so much, had lost.
I’d already cleared up Leia’s misunderstanding, so it would be best to clear up this girl’s misunderstanding quickly, too, right?
But this wasn’t a good place to do it.
It’d be one thing with just my three girls, but even I would feel a little bad about exposing their sexual proclivities to everyone else.
Well, no. It was entirely their own fault, but still.
And most importantly, one of the main players in this misunderstanding had yet to appear.
“Ahh… Miss Matilda. That feels nice….”
Hey, Sara. Don’t interrupt a man while he’s thinking.
I was wondering what they were doing, and it turns out she was using healing magic on her headache.
That works on something like this?
Magic… no. In this case, is it the Goddess’s divine power? Anyway, isn’t that a little too versatile?
Well, I’m not one to talk, being perfectly fine thanks to Healing Sex.
“By the way, where’s Diana?”
Right. Diana still wasn’t in the dining hall.
“She is still sleeping.”
The one who answered my question was Vanessa, who had appeared behind me at some point.
“What? Diana’s sleeping in? That’s rare.”
“Yes. It seems she was unable to fall asleep properly last night. There were traces of a sleep spell she cast upon herself.”
I see. Diana might have gotten a little rest while I carried her on my back, but that couldn’t have been enough.
So Diana’s sleep schedule had also been magnificently flipped.
But casting a sleep spell on herself… she uses some pretty extreme methods.
“Vanessa, you can use magic too, right? Can’t you use some kind of spell to wake her up?”
“There is no mage who can undo Lady Diana’s sleep magic.”
Seriously? But she’s still a lower level than you, Vanessa.
Is it not about the total amount of mana, but a matter of the complexity of the formula or something in that domain?
Anyway, that means no one can wake her up until she wakes up on her own.
I want to clear up this misunderstanding quickly, but she had to go and do something so troublesome….
“By the way, Silvia and Matilda, you two seem fine. Were you okay?”
Well, seeing what she’s doing for Sara now, I can understand how Matilda is fine.
“Yes. I healed myself with divine power, so I have no problems.”
“I am also fine. I have grown accustomed to this through my training to become a knight.”
That’s incredibly reassuring.
Though it would have felt even more reassuring if you were talking to me from nearby instead of over in the corner, Silvia.
But I’ve felt this before—that girl Silvia has way too much adaptability, what with her knight training and all.
Is it really that tough? I had this image of knights from prestigious noble families having an easier time, walking a path of silk compared to other knights.
I guess that’s not the case in this world, where skill is clearly displayed by level?
Well, it seems her training regimen didn’t include a swimming course, though.
“Anyway, let’s just leave Diana be for now and get something to eat.”
If she were just sleeping in, I’d wait, but if there’s no way to wake her, we have no choice.
We had to eat first.
“Sir Guwon.”
“Hm?”
In the end, Diana didn’t show up, even by the time we finished our meal.
We even waited while drinking post-meal tea, just in case she came down late.
Just how strong was the spell she cast? Did she mess up because she was sleepy? No. For Diana to fail at magic is impossible.
As I was thinking that, Vanessa spoke to me from behind.
“While you were in the dungeon, Sir Guwon, a message came from the palace. They said the preparations are complete. The messenger said you would understand if I just relayed that, and then they left.”
“Ah, yeah. Thanks.”
It’s already done?
It’s true we were in the dungeon for a while, but isn’t that still too fast?
Preparing the magic recording orb is one thing, but they’ve already convinced the church?
Has the time finally come to film the video?
The time has finally come to be free of that robe.
No, I like having matching outfits with Diana. I just hate having something covering my head.
Anyway, for that reason, I was dying to go and film the video right away, but there was something I had to do first.
“Sara. Come with me.”
“Huh? Where?”
She’s still pouting a little.
I’m telling you, I don’t like Diana more. We’re going to clear up that misunderstanding.
“To Diana’s room.”
“Oh my. Just you, Sara, and Diana?”
“No. Well, it doesn’t matter if Leia comes along.”
She knows everything anyway.
“Then I’ll go with you.”
Unaware of what I was going to talk about, Leia smiled and wrapped her arms around mine.
At that, Sara, who had been pouting, was spurred by a sense of rivalry and clung to my other arm. Her expression, however, remained sullen.
She really is a cute one.
Every time I see her like this, it really hits home that she’s the youngest in our party.
“Diana. I’m coming in.”
“U-Uh?! Ah, welcome.”
I had naturally assumed she was still asleep and just walked in, but surprisingly, Diana was awake.
Though she was still in bed.
Diana was lying in bed with the blanket covering half her face, unable to even look at me properly.
But judging by the bright red tips of her long ears poking out from the blanket, it was obvious her face was just as red.
I see. So that’s how it is.
I pretty much grasped the situation.
What reason could there be for Diana, after we parted ways like that yesterday, to suddenly have such an embarrassed reaction?
She was only now getting embarrassed about revealing that she was into exhibitionism.
“What’s wrong?”
Of course, being the kind person I am, I feigned ignorance and asked.
“Ah, it is nothing. I simply slept a bit too much, and now my head…”
I’ve heard this excuse somewhere before.
Could Sara have been…?
When I looked at Sara, she shook her head vehemently, denying it.
Then again, everyone probably figured out she does it in the butt the moment the Apostle’s Seal appeared there. I guess she has nothing to be embarrassed about now.
“Oh my. Then I shall heal you.”
In any case, Leia approached the feigning Diana and began to slowly stroke her head.
“U-Uhm… Th-Thank you…”
Forced to stare at Leia’s bouncing chest right before her eyes with every movement of her hand, Diana muttered with an incredibly bitter expression.
Seriously? You still react to breasts like that?
Even after I told you that you’re beautiful no matter what you look like.
At this point, it’s like she’s developed a trauma related to Leia’s chest that has nothing to do with me.
Was the problem back on the 3rd floor, when Leia kept hugging Diana with her head pressed against her chest, saying how warm it was?
Well, she didn’t have any aversion to her own chest when she used polymorph, so I guess it doesn’t really matter.
“More importantly, I have something to say to you two idiots.”
“…Hm? To whom are you referring?”
“Two idiots?”
The two of them, playing dumb.
“I’m talking about you! You two idiots!”
When I pointed my finger back and forth between Sara and Diana, they finally looked startled.
“Wh-Whaaat?!”
“Are you serious?! An idiot?! You?! To me?!”
“What’s with that reaction?! At least call me ‘My Lord Husband’!”
“Are you serious?! An idiot?! My Lord Husband?! To me?! Ouch!”
No. Just don’t. Calling me ‘My Lord Husband’ just makes it sound more like you’re teasing me.
Her reaction was so intense that I ended up reflexively smacking Diana on the forehead.
“D-Did you just hit… Aaaaaaaah!”
Then I grabbed her head and began to spin it around and around.
“My fault! I was wrong! I was wrong! Aaaaaah!”
She was going to surrender eventually, so why act up?
Only when Diana’s eyes were spinning did I finally let go of her head.
Staggering, Diana’s body fell to the side… and she buried her face between Leia’s breasts.
“Kuh…”
Diana wore a humiliating expression, but unable to support her own body, she remained buried there.
Leia, in turn, looked happy as she hugged Diana’s head and stroked her soft hair.
Hmph. That’s what you get for teasing people.
Suffer in humiliation for a while. And when you can move again, hurry up and switch with me. To be buried between my angel’s breasts… I’m so jealous… Ahem. That’s not what’s important right now.
“Anyway, I have something to say to you. I like all three of you equally. It’s not like I like one more than the others. There’s nothing like that.”
“What? Why all of a sudden…”
“So! It doesn’t matter if I do it in the butt with you, Sara, or do exhibitionism with you, Diana! You idiots! What was there to brag about?! And in front of Silvia and Matilda, too!”
“Ah, ah, ah…”
“Waaaaaaaaah!”
As if they never expected me to bring this up, Sara and Diana, looking completely blindsided, collapsed at the same time.
Sara buried her face in the bed, while Diana buried hers in Leia’s chest, and both began to groan in agony.
“I was just catering to your tastes! Sara, your butt is your erogenous zone! And Diana, you…”
“Th-That is not true!”
“What do you mean, not true?! You pervert!”
“U-Uuuuh…”
Hey. They say a woman’s tears are a weapon, but aren’t you a little too good at using them at the perfect moments?
“…Though I can’t deny that I led you on like that because I wanted to tease you, Diana.”
“See! You finally admit it! You pervert! You demon!”
This girl, seriously…
“I cannot believe you would say such things in front of others!”
“You’re the one who said it in front of others first! You two spectacularly self-destructed!”
“B-But… but to be falsely accused like that…! Hmph. Since it’s come to this… Miss Leia’s proclivities must also…!”
Perhaps having lost all reason from the sheer embarrassment of being outed as an exhibitionist in front of everyone, Diana began to stare at Leia with dangerous eyes.
“Hey. Don’t drag a guiltless Leia into this.”
“But did you not hear?!”
“Still…”
“It’s alright, Guwon. Sharing secrets together… I think this is a good way to strengthen our bond.”
“I-I am not an exhibitionist, I’ll have you know!”
No, but… I was deliberately avoiding the word “exhibitionist.”
Diana. You just said it yourself.
Just how much of your reason have you lost?
No, before that…
“Leia doesn’t really have any proclivities to reveal.”
“Th-That cannot be true!”
“That’s right! It can’t be!”
Look, I get that you’re embarrassed about your perverted tastes being revealed, and I understand why you’re so desperate, but she really doesn’t have any. No matter how much you deny it.
“Th-That’s not true. See, I like serving you, Guwon…”
“Leia! That’s cheating!”
“Wh-What?! Why?!”
Sigh. It seems the misunderstanding has been cleared up one way or another, but looking at this, I doubt the commotion will end anytime soon.
