Episode 162

I sat across from Carmel.

Carmel crossed her legs, still smiling confidently. The overlapping thighs steal my attention.

Now that I see it, it’s a pretty slutty outfit.

A purple silk dress that hugs the body tightly. The breasts and thighs are exposed as if it were natural. The back also seems to be cut out very boldly.

Have you been to a party hosted by a nobleman somewhere? Carmel probably didn’t have that kind of schedule today…

Moreover, I feel a unique smell that I have never smelled before. It smells like a citrus-based perfume. They’re spreading something like this… I was on high alert for their mysterious actions.

“Did you come here dressed like that… to seduce me late at night?”

“Hehe… what do you think?”

What is this leisure?

Did he achieve rapid mental growth due to the disappearance of Mystilia, which had been pressuring his mind all along?

Carmel began pouring drinks into two glasses on the table. Dark brown liquor flowed in the glass. Carmel held one of them in her hand.

“Do you like the whiskey you bought in Sanctuary? Strong drinks may still be a bit too early for you. Hehe, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Because I don’t take drugs as cowardly as others.”

Carmel leisurely raised her glass and held it forward as if offering a toast. I looked at Carmel suspiciously, then obediently clinked my glass with my own.

“You seem to be in a strangely good mood, Mother. Did something good happen?”

Carmel half-emptied her glass of whiskey. A sharp smile still remained on her lips. Carmel began to talk in an excited voice.

“Okay. Something good happened. A very, very cool thing that you probably didn’t expect.”

“It’s such a cool thing… What kind of thing is it? They say good news doubles when shared, right?”

“Okay. Of course I have to tell you. Because that’s what I came here for.”

Carmel’s toes are tapping as she crosses her legs. My eyes keep getting drawn into Carmel’s bare legs. I had to hold my mind quite a bit in order to properly focus on the story.

“Mystilia contained an enormous amount of magical power. Oh, you don’t know? But no matter how talented you are, you would have felt an eerie feeling, right?”

Carmel doesn’t know. The fact that I was clearly seeing the black magic swirling in the room.

I nodded and agreed accordingly.

“Yes. It was a great chill. So what does that mean?”

“At that time, the magic instilled by Mystilia remained within me. I suddenly realized this today. Even though Mystilia has disappeared, the powerful magic imbued by it is still circulating within me.”

Carmel spread her palms upward with a triumphant smile. Then, the concentrated magical power was taking shape as a large lump. I tilted my head as if confused.

When Carmel closed her palm, the mass of magic disappeared along with it. Carmel said with a very cheerful expression.

“You might not guess it, but the mana I gained as a result is more than twice the mana I originally had. At this level, you can compete with a grimoire holder even without a grimoire. Thanks to you, Sarah. The reason I was able to obtain such powerful mana…”

Perhaps it was because of her childhood memories of her mother, but it seemed like Carmel was quite happy that her abilities as a mage had improved.

“That’s a very good thing for your mother. So what can you do with it?”

“Hehe, are you asking because you really don’t know that? Well, since you have almost no talent for mana, you wouldn’t be able to imagine it. Just wait and see. It will make you feel how scary it is to turn a powerful mage into your enemy.”

Carmel smiled happily and emptied the remaining alcohol. I asked, looking at Carmel pouring the next glass.

A question I’ve had since Carmel first proudly brought up the story.

“Obviously, I don’t know how great it is. But I have one question. Why are you telling me that?”

Carmel’s toes, which had been twitching arrogantly, stopped moving. I continued speaking.

“If I could do something great with that mana, wouldn’t it have been more effective to do it without me knowing?”

“……..”

Without saying yes or no, Carmel just brought the glass to her mouth. The appearance was somehow not suitable for boasting, so it looked like a sulky child.

“Please be honest, mother. Everything I said up until now was just an excuse, right?”

It is certainly true that Carmel’s magical power has increased. However, there is no benefit in telling me that because I cannot even sense magical power. No, rather, it is a huge loss.

This is something you shouldn’t do if you really want to defeat me. Then I couldn’t help but think there was another purpose.

“An excuse? I was just… trying to warn you, Sarah. From a kind heart.”

“Warning? What topic have you always lost until now?”

“Pfft…”

Carmel’s expression changed suddenly. The leisure I had enjoyed until just now was gone. I was almost worried about the safety of the glass in my hand.

I spoke softly as I looked at the agitated Carmel.

“Actually, I know. Why did my mother come to visit me? I know exactly why.”

Carmel snorted. And he spoke in a somewhat relaxed manner.

“Hmph, I told you so? I came to give you a warning. I just didn’t think the judgment would be so distorted that it wouldn’t be accepted.”

“No, my mother came to be raped by me.”

“What…”

Carmel, who was leisurely looking at the golden water in a glass of whiskey, suddenly turned her head towards me.

“Don’t be ridiculous…! On what basis…”

“Oh my, were you not aware of it? If so, I may have said it too bluntly. Wasn’t the reason your mother was so happy all along, not because she was happy about gaining magical powers, but because she had an excuse to meet me?”

“Oh, no… who, who…!”

Maybe I really wasn’t aware of it.

When Carmel discovered that she had absorbed Mystilia’s magic power, she seemed so excited at the thought of meeting me that she didn’t even realize how contradictory the pretense of warning was.

When I think of Carmel, who excitedly chose clothes that fit my taste as much as possible and even prepared perfume and alcohol to wait for me, I feel so lovely that I want to hug her right now. But for now I have to be patient.

“Now that you don’t have the restrictions of Mystilia, did you think I would pounce on you if you show even the slightest gap? You’re cute… but I’m not that simple of a person.”

Carmel’s face was bright red, as if she had been overly insulted or was embarrassed to death. My hands on my thighs are clenched so tightly that my pretty clothes get wrinkled.

“Huh, don’t talk nonsense… on a subject without any evidence…!”

Of course, there is no evidence. If you were looking for evidence, it would be your current attitude itself. There is no need to submit it.

I lifted the whiskey glass, which I hadn’t even taken a sip of yet, and hit it with Carmel’s still glass. Ta-da, the sound rang out cheerfully.

As I take a deep drink, a bitter and stinging sensation passes down my throat. Definitely not my taste.

“That’s right. Like my mother said, it’s all just my imagination. But if that’s true… I’m willing to make my mother’s wishes come true.”

“What…?”

“If my mother really came to rape me, I will do so. If not… well, we’ll have to wait until next time. So, what was your mother’s true intention?”

“I… I…”

Carmel closed her mouth tightly, covering the glass of whiskey with both hands. The very fact that I am conflicted here proves that what I am saying is true… but it seems that my thoughts are not reaching that point.

At the same time, I looked at Carmel with an intense gaze. I take a quick look at the shameless outfit she wore to seduce me. When Carmel noticed my gaze, she carefully adjusted her body and sat down.

In the end, Carmel answered in an uncertain voice.

“Bah, don’t be stupid…! I-I came here because I wanted to be raped. That can’t be possible…”

“Well, I guess so. Well then, if you have nothing else to do, could you please leave now? It’s almost time for me to sleep too.”

“Go, go…?”

“Yes. Or maybe you should change your answer?”

“Ugh…! Well, that’s not it…”

Carmel looked at me with somewhat resentful eyes and then stood up. Carmel’s steps stopped a few steps away from the door.

“……..”

But the pause lasted only for a moment, and in the end, Carmel seemed to have chosen her pride. Carmel continued walking, closed the door with a loud bang, and left.

Hmm… Should I have just pretended not to know and committed the crime?

It might have been a good opportunity to test out the sensory link interactive dildo I received from Julianna. But I decided to trust my choice.

Mystilia has been released. This period of confusion is an important time to properly establish our relationship with Carmel. You should not hastily give in to your desires. You have to wait until you get a deeper taste.

I took a sip of the whiskey I still had left. From the moment it flows into your stomach, you already feel intoxicated. I collapsed onto the bed, feeling dizzy.

I quickly fell asleep while remembering the cute image of Carmel that I had seen in my eyes just moments ago.
