Chapter 69: His Reappearance

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

The Fibel’s Residence

“What the heck was that kiss all about?!”

“Ehe~”

“….”

The kisses from the three of them had left quite the impact. The nobles were incredibly shocked. Some fainted right here and there, while some were foaming from their mouth.

Of course, Jack-sama immediately called the meeting off. Keltz-sama and Jack-sama said they would take care of the aftermath, telling us to promptly return to Fibel’s residence.

And now, I was in the middle of questioning the three ladies what had just happened. However, Selene-sama averted her gaze from me, feigning innocence. Elenea-sama tightly gripped the skirt of her uniform, glancing at me bashfully from time to time. Luna-sama ,on the other hand, kept her gaze locked on the floor while touching her own lips with her hand. 

Luna-sama was the first one to regain her footing. She nodded to herself, seemingly having made up her mind.

Luna-sama looked at me with determination in her eyes and spoke with a heavy voice. 

“The kiss was Princess Selene’s suggestion. It was meant to shock the stubborn nobles to their root…”

“I-I see…”

“That’s why… It-It-It’s not like there’s any de-de-deep meaning behind the kiss!! Do you understand?!”

I was perplexed seeing Luna-sama suddenly got angry at me. But then, Elena-sama stepped in too. 

“That’s right! Kanato, there’s no need to think deeply about that kiss!”

“O-Okay!!”

I responded out of reflex, but then Selene-sama narrowed her eyes provocatively and murmured. 

“Oh my… Both of you… Was that your first kiss?~”

“”Princess Selene!!!””

Elena-sama and Luna-sama exclaimed, protesting loudly. However, Selene-sama lightly brushed them off. She raised her eyebrows and turned to me. 

“It was my first kiss too, you know~”

“Wha-?!”

“That’s right. Kanato-san,you’re the one who stole the first kisses of two dukes’ daughters and a princess…”

“…..”

“You better take reasonability for that~”

“….”

No but, it’s not like I was the one that initiated those kisses though?!

I wanted to shout that out loud, but it didn’t seem right to do it as a man so I decided to keep quiet. 

Instead, I said…

“Taking responsibility is not the main problem here. It’s just… I highly doubt that this will make the nobles agree with Keltz-sama’s opinion.”

All three of them blushed pink in response to my words. 

Selene-sama then answered.

“….Indeed. That’s why we need to offer our help even more. My family is also at fault for letting the nobles run amok. My father has recently realized how grave the situation is. That’s why, I intend to be more proactive in cooperating with you, Kanato-san.”

Selene-sama glanced briefly at Elena-sama and Luna-sama. 

“I think so too. Kanato is a man with the potential to become a duke.”

“I agree.”

“Tha-Thank you for the praise….”

Feeling a bit embarrassed at how highly they thought of me, I scratched the back of my head awkwardly. 

But then, Selene-sama muttered. 

“You will definitely become one. Once we’re on an equal footing, no one will be able to complain~ Ufufufu~”

Her words were full of meanings as she smiled seductively at me.

A Few Days Later, at the Guest Room of Murray Marquisate

Eric, Geese’s father, had gathered other nobles to his residence. Most of the gathered nobles belong to the Henry faction. They were all here talking about Kanato.

“That man, Kanato, he should be sentenced to death!!”

“That commoner did something absolutely terrifying! Stealing the lips of three ladies!”

“He must’ve drugged them!!”

“We must devise a plan to kill him in this meeting!!”

“You are absolutely right!!”

While the nobles were hurling insults at Kanato, Eric’s face remained extremely calm. Eventually, the nobles became so furious that they lost their control, spewing terrible words like ‘kill’, ‘torture’, ‘kill all of his families’, and so on.

Eric glanced at the window. The window flew open and someone came in from the window. 

“Everyone, how do you do?”

“Ha-Harry-sama?!”

“It’s Harry-sama!!”

“Impossible… Harry-sama was supposed to be missing…”

The one appearing before them was Harry, who had killed Number 1200 and fled. 

The nobles were wide-eyed, speechless. 

However, Eric remained perfectly calm.

“That’s right. This man is none but Harry-sama!”

Eric’s words brought smiles of hope to the nobles’ faces. Seeing the nobles’ reaction, Harry smiled. 

“No one here likes the idea of having your privileges taken from you, right?”

“….”

“Of course you wouldn’t want that Kanato guy to get acknowledged, right? You will do everything in your power to prevent that from happening, right?”

“….”

“Please, feel free to be honest. You can tell me your true feelings.”

Harry beckoned gently to them. The nobles then smiled, etching ugly smiles on their faces.

“That’s right. Just as Harry-sama said.”

Harry laughed heartily. 

“That’s great. That’s the feeling. Give it all to me.”

With that, Harry raised his hand and cast a spell. Then, the eyes of the nobles turn red and… They all suddenly kneeled before Harry.
