Chapter 22 – A Sincere Apology
Agnes stared at herself in the mirror and moved her hands diligently.
The more she touched him, the more her knightly neatness disappeared, but it didn’t matter.
If only she could change Dake’s mind with her changed self.
“…”
She painted her eyes, hoping to look glamorous.
She added color to her lips, hoping to catch his eye.
I sprayed perfume on my skin, which was usually familiar with the smell of metal and sweat, and I hoped that the man would know that I was no longer the same person I used to be.
‘… ‘This too.’
Her long hair, which had been tied up, was also loose.
She was just a nuisance to knights, so at one point she thought about cutting her short like a human male.
She quit because of Princess Iril’s dissuasion, but now that she thinks about it, she was very fortunate.
After changing the face and hairstyle, it is now time to change the clothes.
I took off all my daily clothes and underwear without any consideration for aesthetics and headed to the closet.
A dress stuck in the far corner of the closet.
It was a gift from Queen Nermedia, saying that even a knight who only needed armor should have at least one set of clothes like this.
The queen would be in an uproar if she found out that she was trying to seduce a human with the clothes she gave her, but she knew that the only way left for Agnes was to leave the kingdom with Dike.
‘… It’s okay.’
After putting on the dress, the image I see in the mirror feels very unfamiliar.
Despite his best efforts, he couldn’t figure out how he looked, and his heart was pounding.
‘No, you can. ‘I have to do it.’
He thought to himself and hurried out of the room.
Since I was inexperienced with makeup and took a lot of time, I felt like if I delayed even a little, my opportunity would be lost forever.
‘Please… Please…’
While going to his room, he prayed that he would not run into anyone.
Reality so indifferently gave up such an earnest wish.
“Ah…”
One of his subordinates in the hallway froze when he saw the changed leader.
Agnes was so shocked that her eyes wandered all over her face and body.
Soon the owner of the eyes bowed low and then disappeared as if running away.
The shame fell to Agnes, who was left alone in the hallway.
What did the elf just think when he saw me?
When her relationship with a human man was discovered, she must have been disillusioned because her true nature was now openly revealed.
The rumor quickly spreads to the other sisters of the knights, and their sense of disappointment and betrayal grows.
His heart broke as he felt self-loathing rising again, but Agnes still had to move on.
Because there was only one person in this land who would accept the abandoned dark elf.
—
It must have been nearly two hours since Agnes left the room.
While I was quietly waiting in the room, a weak knocking sound reached my ears.
-Ah, Alvin… Can I come in for a moment? I have something to say.
As expected, I am the only one she has right now.
He must have been contemplating what to do next in his room until now and eventually came to the same conclusion.
I thought two hours was too long to think about, but the fact that I came back was important.
“Why did you come again?”
As I happened to be standing in front of the door, I grabbed the door handle and pretended not to know anything.
“Agnes…?”
My eyes widened when I opened the door.
Because she was standing in her hallway dressed unexpectedly.
Her black hair was long and loose, unlike her usual tie, and her eyes and lips were painted in dark color.
She caught my eye with a femininity that I had never seen before, let alone recently, but what caught my attention even more was her outfit.
A dress as bright red as the sunset or her painted lips.
The clothes, which went well with her bronzed skin, were made of thin material, so they clung to Agnes’ body and showed off her beautiful curves.
“What happened?”
“That is…”
Perhaps because she couldn’t get used to it, Agnes couldn’t even look me in the eye with her hands clasped behind her.
Could it be that he transformed to change my mind?
I just thought that I would come back and cry and cling even more than before, but I never expected that I would make such an effort.
Agnes, who had been hesitant, finally spoke up as I still looked at her in shock.
“She heard that human women usually dress up to seduce men. So…”
While she was speaking, she urgently waved her hand.
“Well, of course I don’t mean to be so arrogant as to tempt you! I would like to ask you a favor one more time, but I was wondering if you would look at me again if I did this…”
To be honest, Agnes’s efforts were quite successful.
She despised humans so much that she used human methods to win their hearts.
Although I already knew about her corruption status, I felt proud at the thought that I had changed her.
Of course, she couldn’t show it off, so she returned to the bed and sat down.
“Come in first.”
“Thanks…”
She hesitantly came in, closed the door, and looked at me.
Did he manage to control his emotions in the two hours it took to return to this room?
She looked much calmer than when she was crying and hanging.
As I watched her in silence, Agnes looked down at her feet and opened her mouth with difficulty.
“Alvin.”
“Call me Day. I like myself better now.”
“…Dake. I know how great a sin I have committed. I also know that I cannot be forgiven since I took your life.”
“…”
“Still, it’s shameless, but I want to ask for forgiveness. Could you please give me a chance…”
There is no need to doubt the earnestness in his voice.
The app has already let her know that I have become indispensable to her.
But even so, I wanted to hear Agnes’s sincerity directly.
“If you have to leave the kingdom, you can go out and live alone in hiding. Why are you clinging to me?”
“I…I don’t have the confidence to live alone.”
After answering that, Agnes paused for a moment before continuing.
“The reason I despised humans… May have been because I was afraid of the dark elf nature that might be hidden within me. I wanted to be different from other dark elves and humans, and tried to stay away from them.”
“…”
“But because of that, I committed a great sin. I looked down on innocent people, hated them, and even killed them in the end. And with that karma… No, it’s not karma. I just didn’t realize it until now, but I was originally like this. One day, because of the dirty nature within me, everything “I was destined to lose it.”
Tears began to form at the corners of Agnes’ eyes, as if her well-suppressed emotions were overflowing again.
“Ugh, I… Ugh, I feel so pathetic and stupid like this that I can’t stand it. If no one is by my side, I just want to cut my own head right now. But…”
“…”
“But at the same time, I want to be held by you. I want to feel safe in your arms that there is someone who understands me, and I just want to be held by you and forget about everything else.”
Amber eyes that were looking at the ground turn to me.
Next, she pleaded more calmly than before, but with greater desperation in her voice.
“Please, Dake. I’m okay with being treated no matter what, so please let me stay by your side. I will follow only you for the rest of my life.”
She asked slowly, lost in her thoughts, with sorrowful eyes.
“Are you really going to listen to me? For the rest of your life?”
“Yes. As long as you keep me by your side…”
“I will take revenge not only on you but also on the other elves in the castle. Can you betray them?”
Agnes asked with a heavy expression at the unexpected words.
“As for the other elves in the castle… Do you mean the elves who agreed to kill you in the past? Even the queen…?”
It didn’t take long for the answer to come back to me as I nodded in affirmation.
“Anyway, I can’t go back to the way it was before. No matter what they do, it’s my karma for accruing their grudge against you, so I have no reason or right to stop them. But, no matter how much you do, I wonder if it’s possible for you to stand against the kingdom…”
“We’ll do something about it, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Well, then… Are you accepting me?”
I was already fully feeling Agnes’ sincerity.
I also regret what I did to me.
Finding the cause of the situation you are in yourself, not my revenge.
She told me that she is now 180 degrees different from what she used to be.
Of course, this does not mean that I have completely forgiven you.
When I still think about the day I was stabbed and fell off the cliff, I feel a pang of pain in my heart.
But the homophobic elf from back then is gone, and only the gentle elf who relies on me remains, so I guess I can accept her apology.
Of course, after further appreciating her remorse.
“Well, I still don’t know how serious you are.”
“That can’t be possible…!”
“So show me tonight how serious you are.”
Agnes, who was devastated, understood the hidden meaning of my words and looked at my crotch.
“…I understand. I will definitely satisfy you. Ugh.”
A moan escaped from her mouth as she made a promise.
Thanks to the fact that I got closer and grabbed one of her breasts.
But no matter how thin the dress was, I felt the warmth and softness of my chest so vividly.
“Are you not wearing any underwear?”
“I think people will like it better when I don’t wear it…”
I get excited at the thought that this heavy makeup, hairstyle, clothes, and even the scent of perfume that gently tickles my nose are all products of concern to get my attention.
As I continued massaging it with my fingers, the nipples that had long since become accustomed to my touch revealed their presence on the thin cloth.
“Dake…”
Even though he said he would satisfy me, he gave me an expectant look with just a slight touch.
I could feel the dark elf’s instinctive craving for pleasure, but I released his hand and took a step back.
“First of all, I want to receive a sincere apology from the elf.”
“Are you saying this is a sincere apology…?”
There were a few things that struck me after falling into Elora, and one of them was the elf’s sincere apology.
The act of taking off all the clothes you were wearing, folding them properly, and kneeling down on the floor to ask for forgiveness.
What is called naked doggeza in vulgar language also existed in the world of elves.
“…I get it.”
It didn’t take any time for the answer to come back.
Although it was a humiliating act that put down her own dignity, Agnes was that desperate to gain my trust.
She took off the red dress she was wearing and folded it neatly on the ground, then moved slightly to the side and lowered her body to the floor.
A polite posture of kneeling and lowering the upper body all the way down.
Meanwhile, looking at her thin, solid waist line and bulging buttocks, I was sure that her body was made to be harassed by me.
“I apologize with all my sincerity. Please forgive me…”
The anger toward the past has already subsided considerably, so the current apology does not make much of a difference.
For a moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of emotion that I had finally accomplished it, and soon the masculine instinct to play with the naked body of the other person stirred.
“Stay still.”
“…”
“You’re apologizing right now, so no matter what happens, you’re not allowed to move or make a sound. You know what I mean?”
“…”
Agnes immediately closed her mouth as instructed, and I silently moved behind her.
How much can a sensitive dark elf body endure?
To answer that question, I pushed my finger into the gap between her labia as she lay face down.
