The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 149: Surprise after surprise

Chris looked towards the door, expecting room service, but what appeared was the head with ears and black and white hair of the beautiful girl he had seen earlier at the reception.

She looked into the room, scanning it; she paused for a moment with her gaze on him, but continued to the girl next to her and motioned urging her to come closer.

The girl, not understanding why her boss was interrupting her in her work, which today seemed especially generous, approached the door, and after a few seconds of what seemed like negotiation, finally nodded and walked out, only for the beautiful girl to enter.

”...”

Chris saw this, but honestly, he had no complaints. The girl was beautiful in comparison to all the others, and he was more than happy to have her as a companion. Maybe he was just being biased, but that’s how it felt to him.

”Oh, dear, the other girl had some unfinished business, you don’t mind if I replace her, do you?”

”No, more than that, it’s a pleasure to have a lady as beautiful as you accompany me.”

”!Oh, indeed I am! My dear, you are sweet with words”.

”Yes, I’ve been practicing lately to woo someone. I think I’ve gotten better.”

”Oh, dear, I see you’re quite a beau. But do you think I wouldn’t get jealous of you talking about other girls in front of me?”

”No problem. I know you have a big heart, comparable to your beauty.”

”Hehe, you know, I like you more and more. By the way, my name is Leyla, but you can call me Lily, how about it? It’s a unique privilege I give only to you.”

”Oh, my name is Christian, but you can call me Chris... or whatever you want.”

”Well, since you’re so sweet with words, I’ll call you ’Sweetheart’.”

Chris didn’t know what was happening at that moment. The words just flowed naturally. He hadn’t noticed it with Lys before, since she only responded shyly when compliments were given, but this oneesan named Leyla was responding naturally to his compliments.

Chris was realizing how good he was at this. Or so he wanted to believe, but he also seemed to hit it off particularly well with Leyla.

He felt something resonating with her, as if they shared some kind of connection, as he had practiced resonance before and knew what that feeling clearly was, though now there was no skill involved, as with the sisters.

Analyzing the conversation a bit, since he had come to learn, Chris realized that it was mainly because he was acting with confidence, without hesitating for a second and letting everything flow, perhaps also influenced by the fact that he felt special freedom in talking with Leyla.

Finally, Chris thought about it and it seemed to be a viable answer, the more he thought about it the more he reaffirmed and concretized in his mind that self-confidence was a key factor when it came to conquer.

As long as you are confident, everything will be fine. Even if you are ugly, you can go far. And if you’re handsome, you’ll go even further.

That has to be the answer.

’how come we didn’t realize it before’

’yeah, if I think about it the reason it worked out better for us is because we were confident almost from the start’.

’shit, how stupid of us to realize it so late’.

He thought all this while having a conversation with his parallel thought that was still in his doppelganger .

These thoughts did not interfere with his conversation with leyla since as a wizard he can do more than one thing at a time even without including his parallel thinking, and so with renewed belief and confidence.

Chris was now confident, and made a plan to start by gently asking her about things like her preferences. His plan even went all the way to the end where to end the evening he would ask her out and be her girlfriend, but he had to do the right steps, he prepared himself and spoke, but what came out of his mouth was ....

”Lily, please go out with me, be my girlfriend.”

”....”

”...”

”..”

”.”

A silence flooded the room. Apparently, everyone was listening in on the conversation a bit. The female employees were obviously attentive to their boss, and the men, well, they were seeing if they could learn anything from Chris, although they were still acting like living statues.

’Shit, what did I say, I was just going to ask her about her hobbies or her interest in boys. I went straight to the end of my plan.’

’You blew it you idiot’

’My confidence went up’

’we blew it’

Chris’s confidence went to the extreme, and he thought he’d screwed up...or so he thought.

”Of course, Sweetheart.”

”Huh?”

”Whaaaat?” (x19).

Surprisingly, Leyla responded positively to the proposal, startling Chris and the rest in the room, who were very attentive to what was going on.

’Are they drunk yet, did they drink too much? ’No, they should only have had one drink. ’Then why are they acting crazy when they’re sober,’ thought most as they watched these two start dating without more than a minute having passed since they met.

The rest of the guys, or more precisely the trio who wanted girlfriends, could not allow the injustice to continue to happen.

They could not tolerate such a barbaric and unjust act, even if it was their friend. So, honorably, they began to intervene to make the world a more equitable place.

”Miss, don’t take him seriously, he’s just joking. He already has a girlfriend.”

”Yes, and a very pretty, beastly cat girl.”

”Chris, you wouldn’t be able to cheat on your girlfriend, would you? You only came here for us, didn’t you? You said that because you’re too drunk.”

Like the good friends they were, they began to discredit him. And, in an action not at all influenced by jealousy, they even broke the taboo of mentioning a relationship in this kind of place.

”Oh, sweetheart, is that true?”

’These pieces of shit, I do so much for you guys, and that’s how I get paid. But you messed with the wrong person, rookies.’

Seeing how all three of them had looks of triumph and ”what are you going to do now? Now she knows you have a girlfriend,” Chris decided to be cheeky. Since the soup had spilled, he would get straight to the point, fearlessly and with the universal truth he had just discovered.

”Lily, it’s true, but don’t worry. I have full and complete permission to bring more girls into my harem, so no problem.”

”Oh, sweetheart, you are more interesting than I thought.”

”So let me rephrase: would you join my harem of beautiful girls? There’s always room for more.”

”Hummm, sweetheart, I like the sound of that. I accept. Also, I forgot to say that I’m married too ~tee-hee (╹ڡ╹ )... so We’re even.”

”Huh?” (x7)

All the men, who were unaware of this ’small’ detail, were surprised. Chris felt a little despair for a few seconds, but he didn’t give up. He thought positively and was glad that Leyla was someone honest.

’Besides, this never stopped me before.’ No problem, she wasn’t the first married woman he’d tried to conquer. That was no obstacle for him, Chris felt he could accept everything if he made Leyla his girlfriend.

”I have kids too, do you still love me?”

’Holy cow, she’s a milf!’

Unlike Astrid which you wouldn’t be too surprised if she said she had children because of her character and aura, Layla looked young, although she emitted a mature aura it wasn’t that kind of maternal aura that Astrid had, but rather one of experience, the idea of her being a mother didn’t cross her mind at any time.

’well, tallves her son is young, but that doesn’t matter,’

as he thought before, those little details never stopped him, he could do anything. Being a stepfather was no impediment; he was an adaptable being and would take anything.

”Fine, no problem, I’ll take it.”

”oh, sweetherar I’m glad you’re so understanding! I’m in your care from now on.”

”Huh?” (x19)

Ignoring the fact that everyone was shocked at them and their incomprehensible pace, Chris couldn’t have been happier. Leyla appealed to him intensely, and he managed to connect with her quickly.

Not to mention that when he got home, the girls would be proud of him and stop pressuring him. He couldn’t wait to tell them, and in fact, his doppelganger was already narrating the events from the other side.

As he continued to chat with Leyla, he noticed how the boys, who finally understood what was going on, seemed to want to sabotage him in some way.

But Chris wouldn’t allow it. So, with a quick move that surprised the girls, he grabbed all the men and led them to the corner.

He had to take care of them, or they would continue to ruin his night. Now that he had discovered the secret of conquest, he gathered them around him to lead them down the right path...
