The Noble Lady of Lust -
Chapter 268: Equilibrium
Chapter 268: Equilibrium
"Same theme as always. Form groups of five. three warriors and two mages in each group."
"Oh, beautiful future knight, would you like to group with me?"
"Chris, you must stop talking like that or I will also get involved in a scandal, you are a natural casanova."
"hehe~, keep it up, your compliments will take you far with me...there’s nothing better than being complimented by a beautiful girl."
"Chris stop and if Eira listens to you ...., "
"that’s ok..., well what we were at you want to do group with me".
They were now in a joint sparring class, where the sessions were mostly based on practice in different sized groups.
Today, apparently, it would be in small groups of 5 students, and as always, Chris, for some reason, would immediately group with her.
And Eirlys was more than happy, no matter how messed up her relationships were, she always learned best by being around him, he was good at seeing her flaws and pointing them out.
Well now she wouldn’t be lying if she wasn’t a little nervous as the sweet words Chris always blurted out without any hesitation and she didn’t want to take them seriously, could be more serious than she thought.
’and if Chris is really hitting on me...no, don’t get distracted first it’s class.’
"Okay, but who will be the remaining ones?"
Eirlys whose thoughts were wandering came back to reality, after all, she still didn’t quite finish understanding what’s going on at lunch, it was more productive to focus on classes.
"Hmm, well... Cordelia, are you joining?"
"...Okay...."
"Well, now we’re two wizards short."
Eirlys had no complaints. She was always willing to work with new friends , and although she hadn’t talked to Cordelia much during the last examination, she seemed like someone reasonable and calm.
"Grrr..."
"Damn it, Eira, stop growling! You forgot you’re a cat not a dog, You don’t intimidate at all. At best, it just makes you look cute."
"hump! Stop talking nonsense, you’re the only animal here!"
"yeah, well, go to another group I don’t want to be with someone who beat me up before while I was helpless, in my group only rational people can go."
"you asked for it, and just so you know, I don’t agree with what you’re doing at all!"
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"I already know everything, what you’re doing and what you’re planning, thanks to those weird meetings and I don’t agree."
"so it was that....es good that you’re aware...wait what did they tell you, for sure a certain woman who has a fetish for dressing up as a maid at home badmouthed me...hiii!! she heard me!"
"he~ will beat you up later, well the important thing is that I know about the ones you’re doing, and like I said I don’t like it at all."
"Oh!!.(⊙o⊙)"
"What, it bothers you that I don’t agree or something? Well, tough luck. Now that I’m your girlfriend, you’ll have to live with that."
"No, more like... You know, I’m glad, that’s a normal reaction. Lately I felt like I was the weird one. I understand them being excited and all, but it made me feel overwhelmed that they were even more excited than I was."
"So... you don’t want the...?"
"Ah!, no, you’re wrong, I do want it, but habeses they are more proactive than me and it worries me. But it’s the best thing in life, who wouldn’t want something like that, as long as it doesn’t bother them I won’t stop!!! hueheuhe".
"Damn! I don’t agree... Not at all!"
"Hmm... That I understand hum, but that just shows how much you love me..., you don’t know, how happy this makes my little berserk, he loves me so much he doesn’t want to share me."
"stop distorting what I’m saying I’m serious!!!"
" I am too, and your feelings came directly to me, but let me convince you first..."
"hump! whatever you say I won’t agree!"
" wait a moment Lys, let me talk to her for a moment while you look for the last mage, Eira will also be in our group."
"Huh? Oh, yeah, sure."
Eirlys was paying attention to the conversation between Eira and Chris, but she didn’t understand half of what they were saying.
However, they seemed to understand each other perfectly. She wondered if someday, if she ever got a boyfriend, she might have as good a rapport as they did.
"Lys, is there room for a wizard?"
"Uh, oh, yes, just what we needed now we are complete."
Her thoughts were interrupted by Silvia, and since it was her, she agreed without thinking. Now his group was complete. And he turned his gaze to Chris curiously.
As usual, they seemed to be talking under a silent veil, so he didn’t manage to hear anything, but he watched as Chris motioned to Eira’s chest and then to his own.
Eira looked angry.
Then Chris started listing something with his fingers, which seemed to infuriate Eira even more.
Just when she thought they would start fighting again, Chris surprised her by pointing at her and then at Cordelia pausing and then pointing at Silvia.
Eira stared at her doubtfully, alternating her gaze between Ella and Cordelia, as well as Silvia. as Chris continued to speak to her in a low voice and gesturing with his hands, as if he was balancing something heavy, as if on a scale.
"hey Silv what do you think they’re talking about?"
"Ha~.... He’s probably talking nonsense about balance."
Eirlys didn’t understand what Silvia mean. She wondered if she was especially slow to understand her surroundings. Just in case,and to make sure,she decided to take the first step.
"So..., Cordelia, what do you think?"
A little hesitantly, she asked Cordelia how she saw the scene, but she seemed more lost in thought than anything else. Curiously, however, she seemed to hear her and answered.
"I don’t know."
It was brief, but Eirlys found it good, as she thought at least she wasn’t the only one without understanding. She wondered if she kept it up, she might become friends with Cordelia as well.
She had heard from Chris that she was a noble and, besides, she was beautiful. She felt she could learn a lot by being friends with her.
On the other hand, he saw the anger on Eira’s face gradually disappear. In its place, there appeared an expression of doubt and what looked like an internal struggle, as if she was resisting what Chris was telling her, but at the same time, it was somewhat reasonable.
Chris kept whispering something in her ear, and by the end, the look Eira was giving her before with annoyance had transformed into something closer to pity.... And companionship?
Eirlys didn’t know what they had been talking about, but for some reason, she didn’t feel right about that look.
When Chris returned, she asked him what they had been talking about, and he simply replied that it was about balance and equilibrium as Silvia had said.
Something she still didn’t understand. But, apparently, that made Eira less aggressive with her. In fact, Eirlys noticed that he was now treating her better than before throughout the class.
She didn’t know what Chris did, but as always, she thought he was very layered in solving problems.

"That’s not at all acceptable."
"No matter what you say, Honey, that’s the way it should be."
"No, Astrid, this simply won’t work."
"I think the same thing. I can’t believe you have such a closed minded opinion. She and everyone else obviously deserves it."
"It’s too much, think about it. The poor thing won’t be able to handle it all."
"Love can do anything."
"No, Astrid, I would normally agree with you, but we have to be realistic here."
"I’m not changing my mind."
There Astrid and I were, having a heated discussion over our differences of opinion.
The world might say I’m a hypocrite for having this stance, as it contradicts many things I do myself and that I’m wrong, but I won’t change my stance , even if everyone is against me... even if one of those people is my partner.
The reason for our discussion started as usual, or rather, more impatient than ever. After class, I almost flew for her office.
I hadn’t seen her in over a week and was looking forward to seeing her. We had a warm and loving reunion. Afterwards, we did it intensely.
At Astrid’s request, we used a condom, although it wasn’t necessary. Occasionally we use it because she likes the experience, although it is likely to cause inconvenience.
The problem started when we finished.
Astrid and I share a fondness for reading novels and such, as we do with Alice. But while with Alice it’s mostly wholesome romance, with Astrid we have a wide range of genres, including adult content, from which we sometimes pull material for our sessions.
The point is that lately we were reading a reverse harem novel. It wasn’t, shall we say, one of my favorite genres, but the story itself was interesting and grabbed me.
We were in its final stages and there was one volume to go.
Since I wasn’t there last week, Astrid saved it to read together. After our session, with some free time, the two of us read it together curled up on the sofa-bed.
And when we finished the volume, that’s when the discussion started. Astrid mentioned that she wanted the story to end in harem, but I wanted it to end with just one guy.
This couldn’t get any worse! It was twelve guys against one delicate, pure woman. The poor thing would be torn apart on a daily basis, that was barbaric.
I couldn’t understand Astrid, who wanted her to finish them all off by the end.
"She should only stay with her senpai. He was the only one who loved her even before she was blessed by the goddess of beauty."
"No, Honey, everyone deserves to be happy. It’s true what you say, but the rest also loved her and helped her in her most difficult moments, and she loves them too."
"Think about it, Astrid, the poor thing doesn’t have enough holes, she’ll die on the first day!"
"That’s not what we’re talking about, we’re talking about love."
"And the boys are going to fill it to the brim with love. That’s twelve. Twelve loads a day...at the very least, it would take her all day to satisfy them all. They’d have to use her even when she’s asleep."
"Honey!, that’s not the point!!. And in my experience, you’re the rare one who can do it that many times every day."
"Your experience comes from the books we read That doesn’t count. the point is poor Bella, she will be harmed daily and i’m thinking best case scenario, after all she is someone blessed by the goddess of beauty, the male protagonists can hardly stand it now, ."
"I can’t believe you are so heartless. Love comes first. I don’t know you, Honey."
"Hump!!! You have to be realistic, those unsatisfied guys probably do NTR to her and it’s better not to be together than that, one is enough."
"like I said feelings are what’s important if they love her they won’t do something like that, that’s the power of love!!!"
"still the point is that she is a pure soul, twelve men will definitely corrupt her,"
"I don’t think it’s impossible, I could be like you and..."
"no, don’t say that about my Bella, she’s a pure soul, not a corrupted being like me,"
"honey!!, I can’t believe it, you’re talking bad about yourself, just because you don’t want an end like that."
"I don’t care, my Bella is not a nymphomaniac who could handle twelve guys at the same time and I’m not going I change my mind she just has to keep one."
"Honey, how childish. You have to differentiate fact from fiction. Go away, I don’t want to see you for the rest of the day."
"Me neither."
Plack!
Saying that, I angrily stormed out of the oficce the Astrid.
