“Kill me… Someone just kill me right here… “
After a while, I was squatting in a corner of the room and staring at Cartesia, who was banging her head against the wall with a wry smile.
Cartesia became like that after I told her that there was no need to kiss someone to apply her abilities.
Thump!
As Cartesia rammed her head into the wall at regular intervals as if she had become her woodpecker, Arietta, who had been watching her, clicked her tongue and said,

“How could you die that much? Why don’t you hit her head a little harder if you’re going to die?”
“… It’s noisy, you motherf*cker. Now that I think about it, I don’t think I can die here even if you’re mean.”
Seeing Cartesia sighing deeply as if the ground were about to collapse, I quietly opened her mouth.
“I made it clear when I explained this ability a few days ago. The first person I used this ability for was a mercenary old man.”
Anyway, I wasn’t crazy enough to dedicate my first kiss to such an old man.
No, before that, did Cartesia really believe that I would use her powers even while kissing her sisters who were her family?
“No… I thought you had to kiss just because you had to exchange saliva… What is it, when I used that ability on Arietta, her attitude was a bit odd… “
“Did you really think that just now, when I put Arrieta on her lap, I was poised to kiss her?”
Nodding.
Looking at Cartesia nodding her head without hesitation, I felt dizzy.
I don’t know anything else, and I felt like I could definitely tell what kind of person he thought I was on a regular basis.
A while ago, the reason I made Arrieta’s lap pillow was nothing more than a medical act to get my blood into her mouth easily.
“… I’m sorry, but you and I were my first kiss. Thanks to you, I was able to have my first kiss in this way. Thank you for that.”
In fact, considering Cartesia’s appearance, she was not to the extent of being thankful, but to me, it was a very undeserved level.
“… First kiss?”
But it was then. Cartesia’s expression, which had been showing a distraught expression for some reason until now, began to loosen up.
“Really? You mean you’ve never held hands with a woman other than me?”
“… I don’t remember ever talking to you that way, but whatever.”
I lived in the same space as my younger sisters and had countless skinships, but I think it’s legal because it was done between family members, and holding Arietta’s hand just before was a medical act, so I thought this would also be legal. Do.
“Then… good. I’ll forgive you. Because… It was my first kiss too.”
I don’t know why, but Cartesia seems to be feeling a lot better than before.
Looking at her like that, I wanted to ask, ‘You kissed me forcibly, so why do you forgive me?’ .
“Anyway, Xian, thank you so much for using this ability on me… Before that, there’s something I’d like to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“I am different from your sisters. No, I want to be someone else. But that doesn’t mean you’re trying. Because if my talent is amplified by your ability and I have tremendous power… It’s because you might forget the grace you gave me and betray you like those girls.”
“Don’t say that. The person I know would never be like that.”
As I speak to Cartesia in her firm tone, she silently shakes her head.
“You never know what will happen in the future when it comes to human work. In that sense, there is something I want to ask you in advance.”
“… Ask?”
“If I think I’m going to betray you, or there’s any sign of it… Release this ability without hesitation.”
“… What?”
For a moment, I thought Cartesia was joking with her, but it didn’t seem like it.
In her eyes, there was no dirt whatsoever.
“I… I already got too much from you Even if I gave you my whole life, things I could never repay. In this life, and sometime in the past that is now gone… “
Cartesia’s eyes, as she said that, seemed to be aiming for something far away.
It’s as if you’re overlapping another me that isn’t me.
“I will do anything you want. But in order for you to trust me that much, I’ll probably need a leash. And I think it would be good for both of us if we did that.”
“… Do you really want to be my slave? You don’t have to do that-“
“That wouldn’t be too bad either. If that happens, everything will simply be my fault for choosing the wrong master to serve on… “
Cartesia said with a soft smile.
The laugh wasn’t self-help for herself, cynicism for someone else, or a sneer at anything on her part.
It’s just a pure smile towards me.
“…..”
Seeing Cartesia like that, I scratched my head and sighed.
Honestly, having a conversation on this kind of subject has never been my taste.
“So… Now that the crime of hurting your brother is gone, do you plan to return to Loutra right away?”
“I guess so. Even if it’s just to get revenge on my little sisters, things will be easier if we’re together in the same space.”
It was clear that not only did it not suit my temper to sneak up on scheming schemes through the back hole like a rat, and that taking revenge in such a way would make me feel dirty rather than refreshing.
In addition, I also wanted to see the process of real-time downfall of those damn b*tches, who would have been mistaken for having achieved everything with their abilities alone, from a special seat.
So, head-on breakthrough is unconditional.
For me, it was as if there were no other options.
At first glance, it seemed like a pretty reckless choice, but I thought it was a fight with a chance.
In addition, I had a rough plan for how to bring my younger sisters down from their current positions.
“Then who is the girl you want to target first? Personally, I would prefer Lobelia.”
“Why?”
“Just… That girl is so annoying. Especially when you see Ricardo and his brother hanging around like a pair of cockroaches, it makes me feel sick.”
At Cartesia’s sharp words, Arrieta stood beside her and agreed with her.
“Well, I think I know what your sister is feeling. If there’s one thing that’s certain, if Ricardo is someone who can communicate well with that person, then I have the feeling that I won’t be compatible even if I die.”
“Um… “
Lobelia. Certainly not such a bad option.
If I succeed in avenging Lobelia first, it will mean that, if nothing else, I can sever my ties with my sisters, Ricardo, and even the powerful people throughout the aristocracy.
And it is undoubtedly true that revenge against the younger sisters will be much easier if the forces that only see the talents of the younger sisters and become strong supporters disappear.
But.
“No, I have no intention of touching Lobelia first. At least not yet.”
There were several reasons for this. I already had other plans, and of her four sisters, I also felt that Lobelia, who was close to Ricardo, was the most displeased.
Above all, I was the type to save delicious food and eat it only for later.
That’s why, for now, I put lobelia last.
“The first person I will attack is… Elida.”
Lobelia is holding her hand with the crown prince, Leticia has enemies in her tower, and Seria is in the temple.
On the other hand, Ellie didn’t have anything special to say about her background.
“As far as I know, I heard that Eli is a disciple of Duke Orphega? Then, isn’t Ellie also based in the Orphé family?”
“No, Eli is not a disciple of Duke Orphega. The reason why the duke treats her Ellie specially is because she is the one who has the highest chance that Ellie will master her duke’s swordsmanship.”
Turning the words around, she said that if someone with more talent than Ellie appeared in front of the Duke, she would be treated like a kite that fell off that day.
“… It’s all good, but is there anyone in the world with more talent than Ellie? I heard that the Duke of Orphega searched the whole world and only managed to find one Ellie.”
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t have it. If there really is no one like that, I can make it myself.”
Jeong: As a last resort, if neither of these things worked, Orphée would reveal my abilities to the Duke.
No, even if I didn’t have to use this method, as long as I canceled the ability that was already applied to Ellie, it was as if Ellie’s destruction was predestined.
‘So you are first, Ellie. At least I have the confidence to put an end to you.’
The swordsmanship match with you last time couldn’t be completed because of Ricardo’s stature, but there won’t be such luck this time.
Even if no one else knows, the relationship between you and Ellie is… I’ll make sure to tie a knot with my own hands.
Absolutely.
