The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 191: Answers

”I-I’m sorry, what I did was wrong.”

I was on my knees in front of Eira, who at all times seemed not to understand why her mother was in front of her out of nowhere, because suddenly Elena took out a mallet and hit her mistress, who did nothing but watch, with such force that she was impregnated on the floor.

only to then come towards me, who returned to my original form, causing there to be two seraphinas in the room, and to my bad luck she was stunned for the entire duration of my palisa that the bloodthirsty Elena provided me.

”No, but what the hell is going on here? Explain yourself!” finally, at my apology, she regained her wits and asked for explanations. Well, I guess that was the worst part and it couldn’t have turned out any worse. Anyway, on to the important stuff.

”Well, Eira... uhaa... haaaa, well, whatever, there goes the summary.”

I started with the usual, of how I was originally a man and died. The goddess Aeloria summoned me and reincarnated me, gave me her blessing, but she made a mistake and summoned me as a woman.

I tend to blame that goddess who made a mistake, as I don’t want to tell them that it was my fault for mentally defiling her, which punished me like that. If they were to find out about that little detail, my image would be tarnished and I would be seen as a pervert (although it’s too late for that now).

Finally, I explained the reason why I created my Chris identity and how I achieved it with the legacy the goddess guided me to.

I didn’t forget to tell them that my dream and purpose was to create a harem,. That was already common knowledge in my harem, and Eira looked at me especially scornfully when I said that, but she continued to listen to everything calmly.

Although one of the reasons for having Chris’ identity was to interact with William without risking him falling in love with me, but it would be hard to explain that without bringing up the subject of my alternate self, so I omitted it.

Leaving aside the stuff about my alternate self, I explained my legacy, abilities and what I had always been worried about telling him, the way we were getting stronger. I was brief and concise.

”Okay, Eira, that’s it, do you have any questions?”

”...Do I have questions?..., I have a lot of fucking questions, you piece of shit!!”

”Hiiii!!!”

I knew this would happen and, fearing he would attack me again, I got into a defensive position, acting like a man ready to take whatever was coming, obviously while hiding behind Elena.

”...Shit, why do you always bring out shocking fucking facts? Damn, I knew there was something weird going on between you two,”

Eira said as she scratched her head and ducked her gaze. Although she started talking rudely again, she didn’t seem to want to jump on me or attack me like I originally thought she would; she was calmer than I thought she would be.

Maybe what happened yesterday helped a little, and come to think of it, my dopelganger was unconscious.

Instead of having him like that, it would be more helpful if he was present, so I cast recovery spells on him, even while standing behind Elena, which was the precise cause of that tragedy.

”Haah~...everything is fucking complicate...haaah~...so that was the secret to your strength, that explains why I’m feeling a little stronger today, not to mention .... No!!, wait”, if that’s so then Selene!”

’Damn it, dopelganger, sacrifice yourself.’

’No.’

’Traitor.’

’You should have knocked me unconscious.’

”No, but Selene was a virgin, I saw it myself...Hey, what did you do with my sister?”

’Well, the moment Eira attack, you sacrifice yourself and we leave immediately, so we don’t feel anything.’

’Right.’

”No, don’t tell me anything, I don’t want to know. I feel like I’m going to want to kill you if you tell me.”

’Uff, abort, no need for sacrifice.’

Well, it seems he overlooked that little inconsistency in the face of the facts and didn’t have to sacrifice my dopelganger to satiate his anger.

”More importantly, are you really Phina?”

”Oh, since when did you call me Phina? How cute, I like that you’re honest even on this side.”

It was the first time I heard her call me that, she always talked about ’you’ even though I had told him more than once that he could call me ’Phina’.

”A-answer me!”

”Well, what can I say, look...”

I said that and transformed into Chris and then returned to my original form. Eira looked at me blankly, she seemed to have a hard time understanding.

My morphogenesis was now more fluid. The first time I used it I found it grotesque, as if things were crawling on and under my skin and how, but now it is so fluid and fast that, in the blink of an eye, I can already transform fluidly without it looking grotesque to the eye.

Eira looked at me blankly, but I was glad that this was more important than Selene, which was one of my former worst fears, something I thought I would only tell Eira on her deathbed, many centuries later, surrounded by her grandnieces and grandnephews and perhaps more generations.

Yes, I thought that would be the perfect time to tell him...if it weren’t for the fact that he was now in my harem.

”Damn, so is it true? Or are you just playing a joke on me with your transformation ability?”

”I don’t have a hidden secret of yours to prove my identity. I haven’t found any moles hidden enough yet, so ask anything.”

”Huh, what does moles have to do with it? No, damn it, that’s not important, I don’t even know what to ask you, but if what you say is true, there are so many things that take on meaning.”

”Oh, like what?”

I was honestly interested, I knew Eira would never have gotten my situation right, since unless you throw logic out the window, getting her right was impossible.

But Eira was the most, to put it mildly, nosy, and was on the lookout for any oversight or something she discovered of what had to do with Selene’s relationships.

Sometimes I would even say some things indirectly to annoy her, as I was confident she wouldn’t guess.

I mean, even when I told her directly like right now, it was hard for her to take it in, and drawing the right conclusion was impossible. And if he did manage it, he would deny it, as it would be absurd, no matter how real it was.

”Because Selene said that you and she were dating... or rather, Selene had told me that she was dating both of you at the same time”

”What, Selene?”

”...?”

”Why would you tell her that...? No, wait, I don’t think I asked you to keep that secret, did I?”

”No.”

”Yes, it’s my fault for overlooking that little detail. Well, it doesn’t matter now.”

”No, rather, don’t distract me. Haaa! I knew you had secrets, and lots of them. To say the least, you were someone fucking shady, and now I know you don’t even exist.”

”But I do exist.” I tried to protest at his denial of my existence, but he wouldn’t listen.

”Fuck, at best I thought you were the Duke’s illegitimate son or something, so you also had a powerful technique to make you strong.”

”well, I’m his real daughter, so you weren’t far off ” I chipped in again, but again he ignored me and continued.

”I thought the biggest surprise would be something like you were also dating Instructor Astrid, since it seemed suspicious how you kept glancing at her from time to time, but since she’s not around...”

”Well, that’s true too.”

”Damn, I knew it, are there more?”

”Well, there are a few more candidates, but with Astrid that’s all of them. Of course, counting Lily too.”

”Haah. Now even that’s not important with the whole fucking thing you told me.”

”True it is. It’s always hard to say, even more so when the other person loves you.”

”Who loves you, you damn.... damn woman... you damn thing without a gender.”

”Hey, that’s rude. Besides, yesterday you said you loved me. I remember it clearly; at the end you even repeated it over and over again, without adding anything like ’piece of shit’.”

”Stop, stop saying it... yes, I did say it, but stop repeating it or I’ll really get mad.”

”Fine...”

”Ha... well, I already knew there was something weird or something. And I understand that it’s not something you’d say unless it was necessary, and you’d only do it with people close to you, like your harem? Okay, I understand, yes, I understand everything and yet... haaaa...”

”Oh, how understanding my beautiful and cute girlfriend is.”

”Hump!.., yeah, that attitude.... If I think about it, you weren’t even faking anything when you switched genders. You acted the same in both identities, that’s why you managed to get on my nerves both ways.”

”Oi, does that mean you liked me in my female form too? I mean, you said that...”

”Hey, stop talking nonsense! My tastes are normal... Damn, wait, if I like you, then... but only in the male one, but in the end, in truth, you’re a woman... but you were also a man. Wait, I liked you as a woman too...? No, I was just... humm, damn it, forget it, whatever, it doesn’t matter. If I like you, whatever, damn it.”

Eira seemed to finally understand the implications of liking me. She seemed to go into confusion for a moment, but quickly came to a conclusion. It didn’t seem to sink in, more like she was convincing herself.

I understand, so I won’t say anything more about it and let she think about it. I never thought I would be so nervous about the decision she would make.

Eira easily got into my heart in one day, or maybe I already had her in some way and hadn’t realized it or didn’t want to realize it.

’haaa~ how complicated’
