Chapter 975 – #210_Cupid Eros Amor
#969
1.
In truth, the ‘something’ that existed between Siwoo and Deneb was a scandal that could have caused an uproar incomparable to the current commotion.
Therefore, it was thoroughly kept under wraps, but Lluellia was the twins’ closest friend.
She knew about the whole story, and how the relationship had ended.
In such a situation, she had witnessed the two kissing, so the plan for a landing operation using plastic models was temporarily put on hold. It was a given that she would run to the twins and tattle.
“Lluellia… we have class tomorrow, so we need to sleep…”
“Do you know what time it is? It’s 2 AM, 2 AM… Ugh, I want to sleep…”
Lluellia and the twins were energizers whose superiority could not be determined, but the twins were still apprentice witches. At night, Lluellia, the queen of stamina with 24 hours of energy, was slightly more advantageous.
“Is it that you have no interest even though I have personally brought valuable intelligence?”
“I don’t know, tell us tomorrow…”
“Good night…”
The twins rubbed their sleepy eyes and grumbled at Lluellia, who had woken them from their sweet slumber.
“Odile! Odette! Isn’t this not the time for that! I witnessed the little master and Shin Siwoo kissing.”
“What?”
“Really?”
Even the twins’ eyes widened at such a statement.
“That’s right. I saw it clearly with my own two eyes.”
Lluellia put her index finger to her wide-eyed face and tattled vigorously. Odile and Odette looked at each other with eyes that had completely lost their sleepiness.
“What? When?”
“Now?”
“I saw it just now.”
“What happened after that?”
“How did it go?”
“They had an awkward conversation and then parted ways in the middle.”
Odile and Odette were lost in thought. Lluellia even dragged a chair and sat in front of the bed.
“So, it was too much for them.”
“Yeah… I guess so. The little master is a bit like that.”
Deneb had calmly said that she would return to their previous relationship. However, just as the Geminai Counts knew the twins well, the twins also knew their two masters well.
Therefore, there wasn’t really any huge shock. In the first place, it was the twins who had suggested a 4p to the little master, so a kiss was nothing now.
They loved their assistant and wanted to have him all to themselves, but the filial daughters, Odile and Odette, also wanted to take care of their master’s happiness.
“If the master is really having a hard time, should we arrange a place for them again?”
“Are you saying you’re going to do that beastly thing again?”
“What do you know about filial piety?”
“Didn’t you do it with Dorothy too?”
Even so, Dorothy and Lluellia didn’t exactly have a master-disciple relationship. It seemed like a slightly different issue for the genuine apprentice witches, the twins, to share a bed with their master…
In fact, our queen Lluellia didn’t care about such things.
If there was a law above commoners, then above the law was the queen.
The scandal that was stirring in Gehenna, led by Dandelion’s shocking exposé, was, in Lluellia’s eyes, just people who couldn’t say anything in front of her, whispering behind her back.
She was a stubborn maverick who didn’t listen to others’ opinions and didn’t change her mind, but that also meant that once she considered someone her own, she would blindly take their side regardless of what others said.
“If it’s a really difficult situation, I can help.”
“Help? How?”
“To summarize the situation, isn’t it that the little master can’t actively pursue Siwoo because of saving face? Deep down, she wants to be embraced, right?”
Lluellia understood the situation by incorporating her own experience.
“It’s not that simple.”
“That’s right, the master feels sorry for us.”
“Originally, when solving such a headache-inducing problem, you should only look at the cause and the solution. In short, why did the little master end up kissing secretly?”
Of course, there would be the love and sorry feelings for the twins. But as Lluellia said, there was an element that couldn’t be ignored, and that was ‘face’.
“I guess so…”
“That’s true.”
She had made a big fuss in front of her disciples.
She had declared that she had no regrets and would return to their original relationship, but now she was having a secret affair again.
Even Odile and Odette would be embarrassed in that situation.
But was affection something that could be so easily started and stopped?
Odile and Odette had actually anticipated that ‘this could happen’.
Lluellia’s solution to this was simple.
“Isn’t it enough to somehow make Siwoo smell the little master’s scent and leave them alone? And after they’ve done the deed, you reveal that it was your plan.”
As expected of Lluellia, who was not bound by stereotypes, she came up with a solution like Columbus’s egg.
“Oh.”
“It doesn’t sound bad…?”
Certainly, that would solve all the problems at once.
The assistant also clearly had feelings for the little master.
If they were to subtly pounce on her first, the master would accept the relationship.
After making their relationship a fait accompli, if Odile and Odette appeared and said, ‘Ta-da! Surprise!’?
Wasn’t that a pretty good picture?
“The operation name is… hmm, um? No. Hmm…”
While Lluellia was pondering to come up with a plausible operation name, Odile took the lead.
“Since they pounced, they should take responsibility! How’s that for an operation?”
“That’s really good, sister.”
“What is it! It’s my opinion, so it’s my right to name the operation!”
“You always come up with fancy names like Operation Pierre, don’t you?”
“That is the romance of an operation! You young ones!”
“No. The operation name should be intuitive.”
“That’s right. It’s not like we need to worry about security.”
Lluellia, who was lamenting with a heavy heart because the twins didn’t understand romance, thought that the detailed outline of the operation was more important.
They moved to the classroom where the twins usually took home economics lessons and discussed the ‘Since they pounced, they should take responsibility!’ operation, and immediately organized the details.
“First, naturalness is important. If Shin Siwoo suddenly gets horny and pounces, wouldn’t the little master be flustered? At least, there won’t be a romantic atmosphere like today.”
“That’s right. So what should we do?”
“We need to make her inhale the little scent little by little without her knowing.”
Professor Lluellia said, tapping the blackboard.
“That method is this.”
What Lluellia took out was a pretty bottle carved in the shape of a pearl oyster. The blue liquid, already half used, was an oceanic fragrance reminiscent of cool waves.
“That’s just perfume.”
“Are you trying to show off again?”
It was a custom-made perfume that Amelia had made for Lluellia.
In addition, it was a perfume that Lluellia had tired the twins with by boasting endlessly that it was a scent befitting the dignity of a sea mother, and that it felt like the grand ambition of the deep sea.
“You foolish things! Isn’t the original purpose of perfume to preserve the scent? If you collect the scent, make perfume based on it, and sprinkle a little on the shirt collar every day, the effect will gradually appear, that’s my plan.”
“Oh.”
“What?”
Odile and Odette were caught off guard by the plan, which was more elaborate than they had expected. Lluellia was more triumphant than ever and made a V-shape with her fingers.
“Then, to achieve this, there are two things to do. Collecting the scent. And getting the fixative.”
“But can a scent be collected?”
“Who do you think I am? Of course, I’m also well-versed in alchemy. Clothes or pillowcases are fine. You prepare that.”
“That’s not difficult if we go to the laundry room… then what about you?”
“I’ll meet the blonde and get a suitable perfume. If I mix it with the fixative and the little master’s scent and shake it, everything will be fine.”
The plan was completed in an instant under Lluellia’s leadership.
“Wow, not bad?”
“You’re pretty good? You were like a witch.”
“Of course, I’m a great witch.”
Even though they treated Lluellia like a pushover, even though she was a 23rd rank or an old witch, the twins had no choice but to admit it this time.
“But you know.”
Odile asked the smug Lluellia.
“Why are you helping us this much?”
“That’s right, it’s like you’re increasing your rivals.”
Indeed, that was true.
No matter how confident Lluellia was and didn’t care much about the number of lovers, this was clearly an act of increasing her rivals.
There seemed to be no reason to be so proactive.
“I’m the one who wants to ask. Can’t you and the masters inherit in a different way through Siwoo? You should be diligently mixing your bodies and accumulating data from now on, but you’re just dawdling. I understand the masters’ feelings, of course, but I can’t understand you either. Why don’t you grab the masters’ pant legs and cling to them right now?”
This time, Odette was furious at Lluellia’s carefree words, as if she were talking about someone else’s problem.
“Hey! This is not an easy problem to decide!”
“It’s complicated in many ways! You idiot!”
Variant inheritance was not a panacea.
Inevitably, one rank would drop after inheritance, and the masters would lose most of the magic they cherished more than their lives.
It meant that they might be denying their entire lives just for the sake of a personal desire to be together.
“What, what?”
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Contrary to the atmosphere that seemed like they would bicker right away, Lluellia unexpectedly looked at the twins calmly.
“I am an old witch who has been feared since ancient times, and the legitimate successor of Shalit Nukelavi, who was worshiped as a sea mother. I rule over the deep sea, and I am the queen of the great Nukelavi dynasty, who has no one higher in heaven and earth.”
“Ugh, I know, I know.”
Lluellia, who had been hesitating for a moment, opened her mouth again.
The twins sighed, thinking that she was starting to brag about herself again.
However, what followed was the opposite of what they had expected.
“But if I had the same opportunity as you. That is, if the master came back. I would be happy to be a princess for the rest of my life, not a queen.”
Lluellia didn’t look particularly sad.
Her eyes didn’t well up with tears, and her voice didn’t get choked up.
She just spat it out very sadly.
“Unlike me, you have an opportunity, don’t you? As your friend, I just hope you make a wise choice.”
“Lluellia…”
“Sorry, we didn’t even know you were thinking that.”
“W-what is it! Don’t suddenly cling to me!”
The twins hugged Lluellia tightly and patted her, while Lluellia was horrified as if she was not used to this kind of reaction.
“A-anyway! The operation starts! I’ll go get perfume and fixative from the blonde witch’s perfume house!”
“Okay, then we’ll go collect the fabric with the scent on it!”
A grand operation to defy the fate of a witch.
The ‘Since they pounced, they should take responsibility’ operation opened its grand prelude.
