Taming The Villainesses

Episode 205.2

Was I getting smacked in the head with the fan again?

While I got a little nervous with that thought, Mirna suddenly wrapped her hands around the back of my head and pulled me towards her chest.

Soft soft-. 

Thanks to this, my face was buried in her breasts. They were soft and warm, with a refreshing scent.

Ho, how is it? Has the clutter in your mind cleared up? Youre not thinking about the Queen anymore, right?

Mirna spoke with a somewhat shy voice. Indeed, as she said, many of the worries that had filled my mind vanished in an instant.

However, unlike my calming mind, I could feel the devils horn growing restless below.

Oh, how simple men can be

* * *

There were still some positive aspects to consider.

As Id ended up in this situation, perhaps I could develop a closer relationship with the Draco twins.

Sir Theo, lets go fishing at the pond when I get back. Until then, please keep an eye on the house.

After seeing her off, I closed the garden gate and swept the floor.

Swish, swish.

Life here was like living as a noblemans butler. To be honest, I didnt think it was bad to have such a relaxed life.

Living under the tyrant Queen, performing all sorts of conspiracy tactics at the court.

vs

Seeing the girls off and getting hugs from time to time, enjoying a leisurely mansion life.

It was clear which one would be the more laid back and tranquil life. This was good for my mental health. While sweeping the garden for a while, I saw someone approaching the garden gate.

Angmars gardener who leaves even the ministers kneeling is actually sweeping a garden Its all part of lifes journey, I suppose.

Seureuk-.

The person took off the robe over their head, revealing a rich blond hair that was tied back. It started dazzling as the sunlight reflected off it. 

Elga-nim, what brings you here?

I came to see if youre doing well. Mind if I come in?

Having said that, Elga opened the garden gate and entered at will.

I will be the first Lioness to enter the Draco mansion without blood.

Was it okay for her to just enter like this? However, Elga was already in the garden and didnt seem to have any intention of leaving.

Paseuseuk. Paseuk-.

At this time, the intruder-intercepting gargoyles that Mirna had set up activated. What looked like ordinary stone statues began to move, with eyes glowing crimson. Surprised, Elgas mouth formed an O. 

You really bothered to get something like this again? Those sleazy Draco bastards! You think you can stop me with something like this!?

Gwaoo-.

The gargoyles extended their hands and attacked Elga.

However, Elga easily dodged and then struck the back of its head with the edge of her hand. As a result, the jewels embedded in its eyes rolled on the ground like eyeballs popping out.

Gek.

It had stopped working.

No, what if you break them? I heard these are very expensive.

Hey, it was just self-defense. Did you not see these guys attacking me first? And, we can just put the jewels back.

Mirna would be really mad if she found out.

I picked up the jewels and placed them back into the gargoyles eye sockets. But it didnt move again

Lets go inside first. Its hot!

In the midst of this, Elga took the lead and walked into the mansion as if it were her own home. Indeed, it was definitely cooler inside.

Look at these antiques. Having them in the mansion makes it dull. It darkens the place, does it not?

As Elga entered the mansion, she commented on the antique items decorating the surroundings, such as armors and portrait frames. Shinggg-. She even pulled out a sword stuck in some armor and chucked it back in.

Watching Elga act so freely made me uneasy.

Elga-nim, isnt it a bit too much to touch random things? What if theres a cursed item

Why would you keep such a thing in the house? Well, the Dracos are insidious after all. So, youve been here for two days now. Did anything happen?

Elga glanced around and subtly asked in a low voice. I wasnt so oblivious as to not understand what she meant. 

She was probably asking if there had been any progress between Mirna and me. Looking back, apart from the hug we shared yesterday, there hadnt been much progress.

Wed just had meals together, played chess, and gone for walks. That was about it. However, even without hearing such an explanation, Elga looked at me with a frown.

Even though everything is set up, youre still not doing anything? Theo Gospel, where has that ambition of yours gone? Are you so relaxed to just hole yourself here?

.

With that said, I had nothing else to retort with. Fact was more effective than any other attack spell. 

Reflecting a bit on my gloomy self, I responded with a hint of cheekiness.

So, did you come all the way to the rival Draco Familys mansion just to cheer me on with such talk?

What, do I look like such an idle person? I, Im just here to give you this!

Rustle, rustle.

Elga reached into her robe and pulled out a thin piece of paper from between her breasts.

It was the Ark newspaper.

Look, this is the morning paper.

Chwareureuk-.

I unfolded it and read what was written.

There were many things written about the events that took place in Ark yesterday. But what caught my attention the most was 

Queen Aira Von Tarantera, fainted once again during another lecture tour.

According to officials, it was just a minor incident-.

Some speculate that it might be an act to gain sympathy ahead of the Queen contest-.

I closed the newspaper and looked at Elga.

She fainted again?

Yeah. But judging from your reaction, it looks like youre kept unaware of this. It must be due to that devious wench, Mirna.

Indeed, Mirna definitely hid this from me
