Chapter 118 – …You’re quite a maniac, too.
Chapter 116
I was taken aback by Elfriede’s question. No, honestly, I have no choice but to do that. To suddenly ask if you slept with Estelle and Celine.
“…Yes?”
“…I just asked because I was curious. I’ve never slept with a man.”
Saying that, Elfriede took another sip of her drink.
…This woman must have been quite drunk. I glanced back at Elena. Because she was the only one among us who didn’t drink from her.
But Elena failed me.
“Oh, sister finally?”
What is finally? Take care of your sister!
“…If you answer a little, you don’t have to answer.”
“Um, well…”
I don’t have anything to hide… To be honest, there were things I wasn’t rational about because I drank. Perhaps if I was sane, I would not have bothered to answer, but I answered stupidly.
“…Yes, I slept. Because we are dating.”
“I see…”
Elfriede took a sip of her drink, and she put it down. Next to her, Celine continued to cling to each other while saying ‘I’m a dragon~’, but for now, I focused on Elfride. Because Celine is out of her mind right now…
“So… Do you love both Saint Estelle and Saint Celine?”
“Yes.”
That could be answered with certainty. Even if I still lack something for the two of them.
“How could that be? Isn’t it too much for a person to love even one person?”
“Um… Maybe so, but I think I at least like both of them equally. I try to do that too.”
“How?”
“…….”
…That’s kind of hard to say? I had no choice but to give a vague answer to that question.
“There is such a thing.”
“…Yes.”
Elfriede must have noticed that I had a difficult question to answer, so she didn’t ask any further about it. But she had someone who stupidly answered for me.
“How did the warrior share her love, yo~ put Saint Estelle and me on the same bed…”
“Aagh!? Celine!!!”
“Aww…!”
I hurriedly covered Celine’s mouth. And when I glanced back at Elfride, she was blinking her eyes.
“… Huh?”
I tapped my forehead at that expression, as if he had just heard something.
…My reputation, I think it’s f*cked up.
“!!!”
As if realizing something about her, Elfriede was surprised, and I quickly made an excuse.
“Not necessarily! Elfriede, don’t misunderstand.”
“Oh, misunderstanding? Is it true that I misunderstood just now, or is the rumor that you are a brute is true!?”
“Ears, not brutes!!!”
Thanks to Celine’s bombshell remark, an uproar ensued, and I managed to calm Elfriede. During that series of events, Elena was muttering something of her own beside her.
“Three P’s… You’re quite a maniac, too. I can’t be careless…”
…What the hell are you talking about?
How many times had I shared her drink with the true Elfride, she suddenly asked me a question.
“…Abel, have you ever felt that you do not know your own heart?”
“There was.”
“Unexpected. If it were you, I think you would have done well.”
…What does that mean? Doesn’t that mean you act without thinking?
I said there were many times like that too. Especially before I was possessed by this world, there were so many such cases.
I also thought a lot about whether what I am doing is the right thing to do. I wondered if there was something I wanted to do while staying in this department.
It was a time when I was very sympathetic to the saying that I don’t know my own heart either. Thinking back then makes me a little sad.
f*ck, if I knew how to possess like this, I would just throw away some of my assignments and just play like everyone else.
“At that time, how did you solve it?
“Um… Rather than being honest with my heart, I think I accepted the reality.”
“…Is that so?”
“But if you were given the opportunity to choose again now…”
…Of course we should play.
“I think I will be honest with my heart.”
“…Really?”
Elfriede must have liked my answer, so she tipped her glass with a subtle smile. Do you have any concerns?
“What are you worried about? Tell me I told you the other day, that’s what friends are like.”
“I have not forgotten that, Abel. It’s just that it’s a little difficult to tell you right now.”
“Yes?”
Is it difficult to tell me? What are you talking about…
“Tell me later. When the time comes.”
“…Yeah.”
It doesn’t seem like it’s something to talk about at a place like this. I nodded, and Elena spoke from the side.
“Your sister is also very shy.”
“…?”

The banquet ended in great success. But surprisingly, Levius was not seen until the banquet was over. When I asked Elfriede about that, she replied:
“I didn’t really want to invite you. Strange stories will circulate, but to be honest, I didn’t want to sing even considering that.”
…Levius, you must have lost your hand. Shouldn’t you have been good at that?
“I’m going to take Celine to the room first. Are you going to rest, Elfriede too?”
“Hmm, I think…”
“Unni, go to the bar with the warrior and have another drink.”
“… Huh? I don’t really need that…”
“You said earlier that I was lacking.”
“I was…”
Elena somehow pushed Elfriede towards me with a reckless attitude. I looked at Elena with a look in her eyes asking what she was doing, but Elena smiled and said,
“Please use my sister well and give it back!”
“…What do you use?”
“As you know.”
“What!?”
…Do you think I’m crazy? I know it’s good too. Would I, a commoner, lay my hands on a noble, and Elfriede, the highest-ranking noble?
It’s not like they’re sticking to me over there…
But apart from my heart, Elena left Elfriede with me and quickly left, leaving me with two women who smelled like alcohol.
Of course, I also smelled like alcohol, so there were three men and women who smelled like alcohol, including myself.
“…Really want another drink?”
“…I’m done drinking…But I feel like we want to talk a little bit more. Why don’t we just go talk?”
“Um…”
I glanced at Celine. She was still clinging to me, smiling.
“It must be a bit difficult. That’s why I left Celine alone.”
“…That’s right.”
Elfriede showed a hint of regret. And she muttered to herself.
“As expected, you are the kind of guy who values women more than friends.”
“…Yes?”
“…No, I’m talking to myself.”
Elfriede, what would I be if you suddenly said that???
“I just wanted to talk a little more with my friend…But it was unfortunate that I couldn’t. As you know, I have no one I can call a friend…”
…You’re going to give up.
“…Ah, okay. Celine will come to sleep in her room.”
“…Then let’s go together. We’re going out together anyway.”
“Yes, I am.”
I returned to my room with Elfriede. Taking Celine, who was clinging to her side with a smile on her face.
“Celine, this is your room.”
“Um…Really…Bangdaa.”
Celine limped and slumped over on the bed. And after a while, the sound of light breathing was heard.
“…Already asleep.”
“You fell asleep right away.”
She seemed to have completely forgotten her promise. I’m really weak
From noble mtl dot com.
“hehehe…Abeel…I don’t like that…”
…What are you dreaming about?
I shook her head and said to Elfriede.
“Elfriede, let’s go.”
“Huh?…That, that’s right.”
Elfriede somehow blushed a little. It seems that she overheard Celine talking in her sleep.
“Elfriede, are you okay?”
“Ugh, um! Okay. Go ahead There are many good taverns in the city of Bonaparte.”
“I see.”
It looks like I’m going to have a quick drink anyway, and it looks like Elfriede has something to say, so I’ll just listen to him in moderation.
I went up to Celine who was sleeping casually and straightened her bed. I laid her drool-talking Celine on her back and covered her with the covers.
“I’ll be back for a while.”
I stroked Celine’s hair once and followed Elfriede.
Elfriede took me to the shopping district of Bonaparte City. It was a lively street even at night when she stopped by to pick up El Friede’s presents.
“There are a lot of people.”
“There was a festival in the street to celebrate my birthday. That’s also to blame.”
“Aha.”
When it comes to Princess Princess, they hold a festival to commemorate her birthday… It’s amazing.
Elfriede also feels that she is a person living in another world.
“Where we are going, it will be quiet. Most of my favorite bars are like that.”
“It was like that at the bar I went to last time.”
“I did remember. You are right.”
Tonight was unusually cool. Yes, even in summer, you need to have cool days like this at night to feel alive.
“Elfriede.”
“Huh?”
“If you just want to talk, why don’t we just wander the streets? The weather is cool, so that would be better than going somewhere.”
“…Well.”
Elfriede looked at the night sky for a moment, then nodded her head.
“I wonder if so.”
“Yes, it is. I want to take a look at the festival street.”
In the end, Elfriede and I decided to walk the streets. The night breeze was moderately cool, and the streets were still lively, so it was nice to walk around. A night walk like this feels so good.
“The city of Bonaparte is full of life.”
“…One of my father’s pride. If nothing else, my father put a lot of effort into running this city.”
“…To be honest, considering Elena’s work, I can’t defend her very much.”
“I think so too. Still, it’s true that this city is a good place to live, so the locals probably think of my father as a good lord.”
“…Well.”
He may not be a good father, but he has become a good lord. How should I rate this…
Me and Elfriede walked while chatting about miscellaneous things. After walking along the street like that, I came to the main street of the shopping district. It was crowded with more people than the distance I had walked.
The streets were crowded with people. They were enjoying this street with their own unique expressions.
Musicians playing on the street enjoyed their own melodies, and dancers colored the streets splendidly with their gestures in line with the musicians’ performances.
We also spontaneously stopped and looked at the scenery. I don’t know where else, but at least the faces of the people here were full of joy and joy.
…You must be a good lord for Young Ji-min.
I asked her after watching her so quietly.
“By the way, what was the story you wanted to tell?”
“…That’s what you said earlier, Abel. I said I wanted to be honest with my heart…”
“Oh, yes. It was.”
“…Actually, I still feel like I don’t understand my feelings. It’s hard to describe exactly what this feeling is.”
Have you ever been so worried? I think listening was the right choice.
“…But I think one thing is clear. Considering that Luna, Cynthia, and Elena all gave me similar advice, this is probably true.”
“What is it?”
Elfriede looked at the dancing dancer for a while. The figure that expresses a beautiful melody with an elegant figure.
When the musicians stopped playing and the dancer finished dancing, she quietly opened her mouth.
With the red light of the lanterns lighting up the town, the face looked slightly red.
“That I think you are special.”
