The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 419: ”What Just happened?”

”I understand, big sister.”

”I’m glad that’s the case, and you don’t need to compare yourself or think about others. You and I have our own ways. For example, there’s what you said about Eira. You say I’m hard on her, but... oh, look, she’s coming right on time.”

As she spoke, Seraphina saw someone coming; it was Eira and Selene. And when their eyes met, she called out to them.

”What’s going on?”

She came quickly, seeming to understand that it was a serious matter.

”Well, I was talking about something with Alice and, well, for a practical demonstration, I’m going to ask you to hit me—Augh!.”

Seraphina hadn’t even finished speaking when Eira landed a hard right hook to her stomach, knocking all the air out of her lungs along with a sound of pain.

”Ugh! That’s more or less what I meant, Alice. See how Eira doesn’t have the slightest hesitation in hitting me? Could you do it?”

”N-no, I could never, big sister.”

”See? That’s why our relationship was formed in a different way, and there’s no need to compare yourself to the others. Don’t even think for a moment that I’m not interested in us..uff~. Still, I understand that changes are necessary, and I’ll keep that in mind. ggh! Damn!, that punch was too hard, Eira.”

Seraphina seemed to want to make her point to Alice, but she also seemed to be struggling with the pain until she finally couldn’t help but complain.

She asked for a hit, but Eira didn’t hold back, and Seraphina felt like something even broke; the pain was really making her angry.

”What? What’s the problem? You asked for it, and I gave it to you.”

”You bastard,you have no remorse.. Remember that I’m a doppelganger with only half my strength”

”Tsk, what a crybaby. I didn’t even use my full strength.”

”Huh? Who are you calling a crybaby? You’re the last one who can say that.”

”What are you implying?”

”What you think, you little crybaby.”

”Ugh, you bastard! You’re asking for it.”

”So what? What are you going to do to me, you little crybaby? You think I’m afraid of you? Even with my current strength, I can put you in your place—ugh.”

At that moment, Eira, who had a short fuse, unleashed a second blow, but Seraphina was ready. She was a doppelganger, but she could still use her art.

”Bastard, now you’re in trouble. Erupting Embrace.”

She had to use whatever was at her disposal to even the score, and without hesitation, she returned most of Eira’s blow, sending her flying, and she didn’t stop there.

She had to return the first blow, so she went after her. Their fight began.

Alice watched from the sidelines, thinking about her conversation with Seraphina. Thinking about the last thing Seraphina said, she understood what she meant.

She herself understands that she could definitely never do what Eira is doing right now; she can’t even imagine seriously hitting her, or having a fight where the scratches and bites were just to make her feel pain, even though she wouldn’t care if she did that to her.

Yes, Alice clearly understood Seraphina’s point; even so, she wanted more. She wanted to experience everything the others did, she wanted Seraphina to show her all her sides.

She had wanted that from the beginning, and perhaps because it was difficult for her to see that sadistic side, it was what she really wanted most, to the point that at some point she simply couldn’t stop.

Honestly, although it was true that she had heard that fighting was equivalent to interest, Alice knew that it didn’t apply to them, but she used it to disguise what she really wanted to achieve, which was what had happened with Ophelia.

Yes, that was the reason why Seraphina, who is so good at these things, didn’t notice anything, because to begin with there was no real problem.

Now she felt a slight embarrassment for having forced the issue just for her own desires. Guilt, even. But no regret.

In fact, even though she had only used it as a means to her own ends, it was also something she wanted, and what had happened before was like a little fight between their opinions; that meant that now they were like everyone else.

And not only that, she came to the conclusion that Seraphina would think about it.

Overall, she was quite happy with her current situation, but again, she wanted more of that side of Seraphina that she liked so much; she wanted at least the same as Ophelia, so she would wait with anticipation.

Her older sister, whom she loves so much, has never disappointed her.

”Huh? What happened? What’s going on? Why are those two fighting?”

At that moment, Alice heard a voice and snapped out of her thoughts. It was Lys, who had just arrived; her face looked worried as she watched the fight between Seraphina and Eira.

”Ah!, it’s nothing, they’re are...”

”Getting along well =￣ω￣=”.

aSelene’s response didn’t help.

”Getting along? Isn’t it a fight?”

”No, it’s nothing serious, it’s the usual, so you don’t have to worry, Lys.”

”The usual? But it’s the first time I’ve seen them fight, are you sure it’s not serious?”

”Ah!...”

Now that Alice thought about it, from her own perspective, knowing that Christian and Seraphina are the same person, it’s common, but in retrospect, Seraphina and Eira had never fought, at least not physically, so Lys’ reaction is not unusual.

But it didn’t end there, because in addition to Lys, someone else arrived who also didn’t know this fact and didn’t seem to like the situation and was about to step in and interfere.

In fact, they already had a sword in their hand.

”Wait, Sister Cordelia, it’s not necessary, calm down. They’re not really fighting, they’re playing.”

Seeing Cordelia with flames in her eyes, clearly intending to seriously attack Eira, made Alice have to interfere.

She quickly moved her hands and vines sprang from the ground and tied Cordelia up. The situation became a little strange.

”Let me go.”

Cordelia said with a clear warning and ultimatum to Alice. Rather, she herself was already struggling with all her might to free herself, but the vines conjured by Alice were no joke, and Cordelia did not specialize in strength.

”Wait, calm down first. Ugh!, Elena, help me.”

Alice found herself a little panicked and couldn’t stand Cordelia’s piercing gaze. Luckily, at that moment, Elena, Silvia, and Aurora also arrived.

Elena looked at the situation and seemed to quickly understand.

”Miss Cordelia, I assure you that my lady is fine, and Miss Eira will not do anything drastic.”

”She is injured and weak, she needs help.”

Elena’s words did not seem to convince her either, and from Cordelia’s point of view, Seraphina was in a period of weakness and even recovery from injuries from the fight she had had with Alexander.

That’s why Cordelia thought she shouldn’t allow it and looked in the direction where everything was happening, and saw how Eira took the upper hand and was on top of Seraphina.

They had their backs turned and couldn’t see exactly what she was doing, but heart-wrenching screams came from Seraphina.

The reason was that Eira was playing dirty and twisting Seraphina’s nipples, which were very sensitive, and that was no exception even if she was a doppelganger. Eira completely dominated her.

The situation seemed uncomfortable for the group, to the point that even Lys seemed to want to approach and mediate, but at that moment—

”Hey, what do you think you’re doing? Why don’t you pick on someone your own size?”

But at that moment, Christian appeared unexpectedly. One would think that in a situation where his girlfriend was in a fight, he would support her, but that didn’t happen.

He arrived with a flying kick, hitting Eira squarely and mercilessly.

She took the hit, but it didn’t send her very far. She adjusted her position in midair and turned to Christian. She had no confusion or hesitation regarding his actions; she immediately lunged at him, starting their usual flurry of scratches and bites.

But that wasn’t all. To make matters worse, Seraphina stood up, cracked her neck, then tapped her elbow twice with her opposite hand and threw herself into the fray with an elbow strike.

Chaos ensued between the three of them.

After a while, as the whole group looked on in confusion, the scene became chaotic, but things changed.

Now Christian was holding Eira from behind, while Seraphina was getting back at her for what had happened earlier.

”You son of a— %#$&$! Cowards, attacking in a group!”

Eira’s cries of pain and shame could now be heard.

After a moment, at some point Christian took out a pair of ropes and tied Eira up.

It seemed that this would finally end the conflict and that things were finally resolved; even Cordelia stopped fighting when she saw that Seraphina was okay.

But what happened next was not even understood by those who understood the situation.

For some reason, Christian and Seraphina, both at the same time, seemed to bend down to pick up Eira, but when they saw the other doing so, they seemed to stop and looked at each other, then looked at the tied-up Eira, and for no reason that those present could understand, Christian threw a punch at Seraphina.

Leaving everyone confused without exception and agitating Cordelia again. But Seraphina didn’t stand still; she dodged and counterattacked. Somehow, they started a fight that included hair pulling, biting, and more.

The strange fight continued, and Cordelia kept struggling to free herself, all the while keeping her eyes on the fight and looking like she wanted to finish Christian off.

It was at that moment when Seraphina was somehow on top of Christian, biting his skull seriously, and Christian was pulling her hair without fear of tearing it, when they both suddenly froze.

It was abrupt and very coordinated. The next moment, Seraphina stopped biting and got off Christian, and Christian released her hair.

Then they both looked at each other with an expression that was difficult to explain; it was as if they were both searching for the answer in each other as to why they were doing something so stupid.

There was no movement, and they continued to look at each other strangely for a while until suddenly, out of nowhere, they both smiled and high-fived each other. It was an inexplicable exchange, and only they will know what happened.

Then Chris grabbed Eira, who was struggling to free herself from her restraints. He picked her up and held her above his head as if he were showing off a trophy, then disappeared into the bushes in the garden.

Seraphina, on the other hand, ran toward them with great momentum.

”Huh? Big sister?”

”Okay!, I have my own prey.”

Specifically, she headed toward Alice. Without saying a word, she took out some ropes and began to tie up a confused Alice.

”My lady 눈_눈”

”C-can’t I?”

”...Just make sure you don’t take too long and leave enough space for you to have lunch.”

”Okay, huh? Why is Cordelia being subdued? Alice? Was it you?”

”Um, big sister, it’s just that earlier—”

”Well, never mind, there must have been a reason. On the other hand, let’s see if we can even things out a bit. We’ll see if this big sister doesn’t disappoint you.”

”Y-yes.”

At that moment, Seraphina, much like Christian had done, picked up Alice, who was very flushed and breathing heavily, and jumped over the bushes, heading who knows where.

”What just happened?”

”Haaah~ Lys, don’t pay any attention to them, they were just two idiots in action. Trying to understand something like that is simply pointless.”

”I agree with you, Miss Silvia. For now, let’s just eat in peace.”

Lys still didn’t seem to understand, and Silvia told her not to think about it. On the other hand, Elena agreed with Silvia as she freed Cordelia, who, since Seraphina noticed her, had simply stood there with dull eyes thinking who knows what.

On the other hand, Aurora, who had only been an observer, had a seriously doubtful look on her face. Perhaps she didn’t follow Silvia’s advice and was trying to understand what she had just seen.
