The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 6 - Contractual Fraud

It had been a week since Elena awakened her blessing, and it was time to act. I made sure she learned how to use it.

We were currently in my room, it was night and we were facing each other looking at each other, though rather she was looking at me doubtfully as I avoided her gaze.

”So, my lady, why did you tell me to prepare things as if we were going on a trip for months, besides asking me to prepare my things as well?눈_눈”

Asked Elena, with an increasingly judgmental and penetrating look on her face.

”Because we are going on a trip for a while,( ﹁ ﹁ ) ”

I replied, dodging her gaze that was becoming more intense.

”My lady, forgive me if Iʼm wrong, but as I understand it no trip is scheduled.”

”D-donʼt worry about small details,”

I said as I stowed her belongings along with mine in a dimensional storage and handed it to her to keep her safe.

”...Iʼll go and inform his excellency,”

But she turned around with the intentions of leaving the room and ratting me out to my Father.

”I canʼt let you do that”.

I jumped with a fluid and quick movement that made me proud as it was the fruit of my training, as I held on to her.

”Wait!!!, stop!! calm down, remember you have to fulfill one of my requests without resistance!”

I mentioned this fact to stop her steps, which did not stop even though I clung to her with all my strength.

”What do you mean, my lady?”

I was able to make her stop. It was time to use another of my techniques that I had already performed and she didnʼt even notice, thatʼs how powerful I was.

Abuse of Power Technique, Second Posture - Contractual Fraud. 

”Look, here it is written,”

I said as I brought a magnifying glass and showed her what at first glance looked like simple ink stains on the contract I had her sign.

{According to the stipulation, party B must absolutely follow a request from party A and may not disclose the contents of such request unless party A permits it}.

That was one of the clauses I had prepared for this moment. The contract was still in effect whether she wanted it or not, so she is obligated to do what I asked her to do.

I ignored that look of hatred on her face as we both walked out of the mansion under the veil of her blessing.

I fooled myself that it was her admiring me for being clever or so I kept repeating it in my head, on the other hand she was getting more and more serious because I was telling her about our agenda for this escapade.

POV: Sebastian

ʼThis is bad,ʼ 

As I walked quickly, or rather, ran with the information I had just received from one of the maidservants and checked myself. It was information that I had to convey to my master quickly.

At that moment, as I was running through the corridors, I ran into a beautiful lady with red hair and brown eyes.

Despite her beautiful appearance, there was a touch of aggressiveness in her face that, although she was not angry, intimidated or threatened some people, causing misunderstandings.

This lady, despite her appearance, is one of the Ladies of the house, the lioness lady , who looks like she had just arrived today.

ʼWhat a bad time.ʼ

”Hello, Sebastian, whatʼs the matter, why the rush?”

”Iʼm sorry, my Lady, but Iʼm in an urgent situation.”

I stopped and made a quick bow and then continued on my way.

Arriving at my destination, I held my erratic breath and contrary to my thoughts, I maintained courtesy and knocked on the door.

”My Lord, I have something urgent to communicate with you, may I come in?”

”Come in... huh!?, Sebastian! How strange to see such haste in you, what is the matter?”

As I entered, I could see my Lord, who had a remarkable appearance that anyone would envy.

His beautiful sky blue eyes and enviable natural silver hair caused thoughts in me that a servant should not have, but that was not what was important.

I fixed my breathing and relayed the message as clearly as I could.

”My Lord...Miss Seraphina has disappeared. She is nowhere to be found. Upon searching her bedchamber, we discovered this letter.”

I said as I passed an envelope to my lord. Dante, who began to fret at my words. He snatched the envelope from my hands at a speed I did not understand and at that moment I saw him frown as he read it.

”Quickly!!!, Sebastian!, inform the guards!!, hire adventurers, call the information guild and do everything you can to find my little girl.”

”What!!? happened to Phina, what happened to our little girl?”

At that moment, I saw how the lady I had bumped into earlier entered the room and grabbed my master by the neck while asking for explanations.

ʼLady if you hang him like that my lord canʼt talkʼ I thought to myself as I watched the couple interact.?

My Lord, who seemed overwhelmed by his wife, handed her the envelope I had read myself, which read a simple sentence:

{I am going on a sightseeing trip, do not look for me. 

Att. Seraphina. 

 P.S. I brought Elena with me }. 

Undoubtedly, it was the ladyʼs handwriting, which again came out with one of her exentricities, but this time it was potentially dangerous.

So, by order of the Master, began the exhaustive search for the lady..

ʼCome to think of it, two people with no travel experience is not a good idea.ʼ

It had been four days since we escaped from the mansion, we went through a lot of trouble to get here and we were waiting for the transport that would take us to our destination.

We were no longer in my familyʼs territory, so you could say we were past the hard part. We were in the territory of the Marquis Verdant famous for having a large port, so it is used as a transportation point for long trips.

This real is not as medieval as it seems; if I had to say, itʼs in the industrial age, but based on magic which I found curious since there have been many reincarnated before me, but from what I understand the technological level varies depending on where you are and this is the standard of this realm.

Also, in the memories of my alternate self I discovered that not all the reincarnates are from my world, but from other worlds that are not so advanced.

Besides, that cliché that a reincarnated person has so much knowledge to recreate his civilization is a lie.

I come from an advanced civilization based on technology and I barely know how to make mayonnaise, which already exists, so if I were not a noble, I could barely do anything to make a living in this world.

On the other hand, these last four days, the trip that should have only been two days, was extended because we got lost or took the wrong direction several times.

It seems that, although she acts like a perfect servant, her sense of direction is as good as mine.

Not to mention, we had to dodge the search for my father who noticed our escape if it wasnʼt for Elenaʼs blessing we wouldnʼt have gotten far, but somehow we made it here.

A little ragged, but we made it.

The transportation we will take is a flying ship. Although expensive, it will get us to another realm in less than a week. We had already made our preparations, so we just had to wait for our ship to sail.

Elena and I were in a coffee shop while I had a coffee and she held the contract, examining it with a magnifying glass in her hands.

We are both hooded in case we were discovered not to mention we are both beauties that would attract too much unnecessary intent something we noticed on the first day of escape.

”I already told you that was the only clause I concealed, why so much distrust?”

”My lady, with all due respect, you donʼt have an ounce of my trust.”

”whereʼs the respect in that, besides Elena, donʼt you think youʼre being a little hard on me lately?”.

”You think so, my lady? But I believe you asked me to treat you as an equal.”

”Yes, but...”

ʼbut now that I think about it, Itʼs not so bad that look of contempt on her face.ʼ

I think something in me is awakening. Elena is the most beautiful woman Iʼve seen so far, with the exception of the Goddess, and the reflection of myself in the mirror, but neither of those two count.

So, so far, sheʼs at the top of my list to introduce into my harem. Iʼll make sure those cold eyes of contempt are transformed into loving ones, but first I need to regain my manhood. And when that happens... ʼhuehuehue.ʼ 

..

”...”

As I fantasized, we were leaving the cafeteria walking through the streets. At that moment, I heard a sound that attracted my attention. I diverted my path to follow its origin.

In a dark alley, I could see two tall, muscular guys dragging a small hooded figure.

I couldnʼt quite make it out, but it was apparently a woman, as she was also wearing a dress that stood out a lot, making me wonder why she even hid her face if such a dress was screaming that she had money.

ʼMy time has comeʼ.

Itʼs the cliché of rescuing the undercover lady who was going to be kidnapped. I need to save her and make her join my harem. Without even giving it much thought, I ran towards the guys.

”Hey! bouncers!!!, why donʼt you mess with someone your own size?”

And before he noticed, I connected a punch that invalidated him.... or so I thought, but it felt like I hit an iron wall.

ʼDamn, I forgot Iʼm not someone his size. I donʼt seem to have the protection of the protagonist.ʼ 

That was the last thing I thought before I felt pain and everything went black.
