The Noble Lady of Lust
Chapter 284: Little details.

Chapter 284: Little details.

I still have chills around that room and, honestly, my desire to include her in my harem is at an all-time low. That’s why I wanted to avoid this conclusion.

I thought Astrid, being the way she is, would never bring it up, but it seems the incest and harem novels we watched were not a good influence, considering she jumped to that conclusion right away.

But if it’s for her and our happiness, I’m willing to take a leap of faith in the face of the abyss that comes with being the mate of a yandere.

"Haaahh~ well, Astrid, since you’ve never participated the meeting in ’the People United for the Same Purpose ’, maybe you don’t know this but Cordelia-....(◉_◉!?)....No!, wait a second Astrid!, come to think of it, I did mention to you that I was after Cordelia, more than once. why didn’t you ever say anything?"

"( ╯_╰ )...W-well, I thought that, since my daughter liked, well, you (Seraphina), it was fruitless, so I didn’t make a big deal out of it. And well..... I thought that if it really happened, it wouldn’t be so bad~..."

"Hey!!, Astrid!, I heard the second part. that’s what you were doubting from the beginning? Since when did you have those taboo thoughts?"

"(≧□≦)H-honey, that’s a strong word. Like I said, love comes in different shapes and sizes, and well, being forever with my daughter and my beloved didn’t sound so bad. And the more I thought about it, I couldn’t get it out of my head and-and...ehem!...but keep in mind that I thought my daughter’s love would be unwavering and I didn’t take it seriously, but this situation of your identity happened and you know now you, her, and me....".

"눈_눈 You know you tend to talk a lot when you make excuses. I take back what I said about your common sense. Novels have influenced you more than they should. I think we should stop reading for a season; at the very least, I’ll ban the harem genre and incest and anything taboo."

"I’m sure it’s your fault, Sir Christian. You are the source of all evil."

"Elena, you’re not helping me. Besides, the mother and daughter thing was only recently, a little over a week since I found out Lily was mother to Selene and Eira."

"This... Honey, go on with what you were going to mention, and there’s no need for the ban,...the novels had nothing to do with it."

"uhmm... but the theme, mother and daughter is completely sealed."

"/_ \, o-okay"

"Continuing, as I said, you know Cordelia is my love interest. Although I misunderstood her and thought she hated me, it is true that I do have an interest in her. In herself,she’s not a bad girl, and well, she’s beautiful and talented."

"That’s right!! Honey!"

"Haah~ I’ll be honest with you, I had already almost given up on winning her over, since, as you can understand, she didn’t seem to have any interest in me as Chris."

"Yeah, and as far as I know, she only sees you as a friend."

"Huh!!? Really?"

"Honey, why do you look surprised? I urged her to approach you, but you don’t know how happy she was the first few days to make you her friend. She came to me proudly and told me about it."

"... Right... No, wait, we’re talking about Cordelia, right?"

I feel like she’s not describing the person I know. If I think about it, I think the reason Cordelia acted the way she acted the first time.

First, because of her obsession; I definitely didn’t want a man around Seraphina since she doesn’t know my tastes, if I think about it it is because maybe she found out I was dating Selene, that she allowed me to come back and act as her spy.

Second, because of Astrid’s orientation, she wanted me to be her subordinate or, according to Astrid, her friend, so maybe in her mind it was killing two birds with one stone.

And third, her lies and everything she said, because she is very bad at expressing herself and acted impulsively, without measuring the consequences.... or so I want to believe, because I really feel that something is still missing.

Still doesn’t take away from the fact that his emotional intelligence is really too bad not to understand that what he did and the way he said it would cause a big misunderstanding from there.

Honestly, if it were a while back, I would think that for someone to act like that would be impossible, but it’s true that in the world there are all kinds of people whose way of acting and seeing the world doesn’t fit the standard, basically it’s weird.

"honey!?,"

"Uh!? Oh yeah... Don’t look at me like that.... In fact, I see her as a friend, but the truth is that I don’t get the impression that she sees me as a friend. I’d say more like a subordinate."

"Yeah, well, she’s always been a little shy, so it’s hard for her to express herself well. But I’m sure she sees you as a friend."

"...(ㆆ_ㆆ)."

I think there’s a misunderstanding here, and we’re not talking about the same person. Let’s see, how many Cordelia’s are there in the academy...?

"Honey, stop making that face. I know her blessing makes her easily misunderstood, but don’t overdo it."

"As I thought, her blessing is somewhat at fault in the way she acts. Well, as I was telling you, let’s see.... Let’s do it this way: let things happen naturally."

"Naturally?"

"Well, now that I know Cordelia likes me, or my feminine appearance, and doesn’t hate me, let’s just let whatever has to happen happen happen. But I also need your help in..."

Her cooperation in making this work was critical. If it’s like she says maybe she has a fantasy about me, and when she interacts with me, maybe it will break.

The chances were low, but it could still work, and the possibility that she would be satisfied just as a friend was also possible.

Leaving a potential yandere unsatisfied, like Silvia’s case, could lead to a similar tragedy.

So if the above did not work it is better to take a chance and see if she accepts the harem.

And I think I am capable of satisfying her without neglecting her, as long as she is not the type who wants to hog all my intention or love I think I am more than capable of keeping her in my harem.

Thinking to that point, I’m willing to give it another try to her.

All her yanderism and misunderstandings aside, as I told Astrid, she’s not a bad girl and everyone in the group can say the same.

So as long as she is okay with a harem everything would be fine and Astrid is important since she is her mother and knows her better than anyone else.

of course for my part I still have a bit of conscious and unconscious rejection, but I think I can handle it.

"Well, Honey, I think it’s a good idea. Don’t worry, trust me, I’ll talk to her about this and how love can be that way too, like a bigger and more diverse family."

"Well, that’s it, we’ve come to the conclusion, it all ended well it’s a great occasion, that deserves a celebration. let’s have an orgy!!! Well, Eira and Astrid, it’s your first time with more than two people, but let’s get crazy."

"Well, Sir Christian, if I may, I’ll take my leave. Only an hour to go before club activities."

"Hey, you crazy bastard! Why are you suddenly jumping to stupid things? If you’re done, I’m leaving. I’m an assistant too."

"Sorry, Chris, so am I. I said I’d be late, but it’s been an hour."

"It’s true it’s only an hour... and Well, you’re assistants. There will be another chance.... But Eira, you’re missing out on a good life experience-"

"I don’t want it."

"tsk...Well, it’s just Selene, Astrid, me,..."

Bang!

"and me again, it’s only one hour, we have to be efficient, Elena, you won’t escape you have no excuses. let’s go for it!"

My doopalganger appeared at the moment, and held Elena who wanted to run away, so far he had been around with the intentions of digesting what we saw, while I discussed with the girls the solutions.

"Honey, that’s what you had planned all along, right?"

"No, I just adapt and go with the flow."

"Honey, you literally forced the issue."

"Little details, little details. Come on, Astrid, let’s reaffirm our eternal love! Heuheuheuheu~"

Days passed and it had already been a week since I confessed everything to Astrid. it was Saturday and now I was inside the dimensional stone.

The dimensional stone was a kind of storage where living beings and such could enter because it was basically a small dimension, and the dimensional rock was its entrance.

Now, although living beings can enter, they don’t have the advantage of stopping time as is the case with space bags.

It was still just empty space; there wasn’t even any soil, air or oxygen, just empty space.

That’s why I had been preparing it all this time: laying soil, creating artificial gravity with artifacts, planting trees, and even installing devices that would recreate a sun and moon.

They weren’t cheap, and there were things this kingdom didn’t have, but with Astrid’s help I was able to create them, like the artificial sun, using some materials from William’s legacy.

Though it’s only temporary and I need to find a really permanent source to light up this little dimension so that life and whatnot was sustainable, plus I was short of materials because of Kiel’s rescue so I have to find something before a year.

Besides that Gradually it was looking like a decent place, and I started the construction of my residence.

I commissioned a magic engineer with a specialization in architecture to build a mansion that could be assembled little by little, and in the last few months, since I obtained the dimensional rock, the place became habitable.

If I wanted it to grow, I would have to find more dimensional stones. If I could find enough, creating my own mini world to share with my harem and family would not be impossible, but for now it remains a distant dream.
