47. Double the Thighs, Double the Joy
After this, my fate became quite simple: all day long, Kefi’er had been intentionally and unintentionally showcasing her pure charm as a young girl, trying to seduce me in various ways that only “loving couples could understand.” Yet, at the moment I truly transformed into a hungry wolf, I ended up acting serious!
When we parted ways that evening, her words, “I’m going back to take a shower,” were, no matter how you looked at it, a blatant “hint,” right!? However, when Kefi’er, freshly washed, bumped into me, her display of “shyness” was more appropriately described as “shame and anger.” Thus, I was hurriedly pushed out by Kefi’er, who was twisting my ear in a panic.
Surely, Kefi’er couldn’t have had a sudden change of heart, could she? Regardless, I definitely needed to apologize for my infatuated behavior. But after being chased out by Kefi’er and spending the entire night in contemplation in my own room, I finally calmed down and managed to suppress the in my mind, slowly becoming aware of something.
The next day, morning.
After sorting through everything Kefi’er had done to me during our “date” yesterday, I, sporting a pair of dark circles under my eyes, decided to immediately find Kefi’er. I needed to apologize to the boss for acting like a pervert yesterday and also discuss in more detail everything that had happened. However…
The doubts began here.
I couldn’t find Kefi’er at her place, and when I asked the passing elf maidens, their responses were quite strange.
“Miss Kefi’er? I just delivered breakfast to her this morning; she should have just left.”
The elf maiden sent by Aidefu to serve us told me this, and when I continued searching in the royal palace area of the Purus Kingdom, another elf maiden gave me a different answer.
“Are you talking about Miss Kefi’er? I saw her come out of Miss Zelus’s room early this morning; perhaps they are together now? I remember she said she was going to play in Her Majesty Aidefu’s back garden.”
The two elf maids provided accounts of Kefi’er’s whereabouts that completely contradicted each other in terms of timing, leaving me dumbfounded and filled with suspicion. The only explanation for such contradictions was that there were two Kefi’ers, one of whom was an imposter. But Kefi’er wasn’t like Queen Louise IV, who had a sister that looked exactly like her; how could there be two?
Yet the reality was indeed so bizarre, and once I started thinking in this direction, many of the puzzling parts from before began to make sense.
Kefi’er’s “strangeness” wasn’t just a one-time occurrence; I had encountered similar situations before in the Austro-Hungarian tribe. The Kefi’er I met, from top to bottom, inside and out, accompanied by the ice fairy Alsas, had no issues whatsoever, yet she always acted so strangely, especially when she would run off a little earlier when parting ways with me.
Thinking this way, the answer could only be one.
Moreover, this answer came to me as I followed the maid’s earlier hint, making my way through the gardens of the Purus Kingdom’s royal city, which were mostly used for staff breaks.
“You… who are you!?”
“It should be me asking! Who are you!?”
In the place where birds sang and flowers bloomed, I saw two identical Kefi’ers, and not in the way that the Moon Fairy mimicked the queen with mere resemblance, but as genuine duplicates… exactly the same!
From their outfits to their appearances, even the magic sword Alsas hanging at their waists, both Kefi’ers had one! It seemed these two Kefi’er bosses had just discovered each other, and their argument had only just begun.
“You… you’re the imposter! I was wondering why that happened yesterday; it must have been you pretending to be me, right!?”
“Don’t play the thief crying ‘stop thief!’ It’s clearly you pretending to be me!”
As soon as I appeared, both Kefi’ers turned to look at me simultaneously.
“Ouji Lide! Why is there another me here!?”
The two Kefi’er bosses pointed at each other, looking to me, their “genuine fiancé,” for comfort and help. But… you two are practically identical copies; even if I were the best model husband in the country, I couldn’t possibly tell who was real and who was fake!
“K-Kefi’er, calm down! The one impersonating you might be that bear fox!”
This is not something difficult to guess; rather, it’s the conclusion I arrived at after thinking it over all night. That “strange Kefir” that occasionally appears, like yesterday, is most likely a counterfeit created by the great chieftain of the Austro-Hungarian tribe, Zelus, to mess with me, disguised as that mischievous bear!
Originally, I intended to find Kefir today to explain my guess and properly deal with that bear-fox. However, it seems this bear-fox wanted to “come clean” first, rushing over to Kefir’s side to mix in with her!
“Fox? Are you talking about Zelus?”
“Wait! Zelus! How can you still turn into my form!?”
Moreover, judging by the current situation, this bear-fox is indeed clever; I can’t tell them apart at all!
In order to recognize my true wife and to clarify yesterday’s misunderstanding, as well as to teach that bear-fox a lesson, I hurriedly signaled Kefir to stay calm.
“Dear, please calm down, don’t rush! Let me show you with ‘prophecy’!”
I quickly glanced at the script, but…
[Kefir wants Oujili to recognize her!]
[Zelus wants Oujili to mistake her!]
What a mess! The script is completely useless in this regard! Let’s try another approach; after all, Zelus is just using a disguise identical to Kefir’s. She can’t possibly know what others are thinking like the Moon Fairy, right? As long as I say something only Kefir and I know, this stinky fox will definitely expose herself in no time!
“K-Kefir, can you tell me how we first met?”
My plan was perfect, but I hadn’t considered Kefir’s feelings at that moment.
As soon as I finished speaking, one Kefir had already opened her mouth, followed closely by the other.
“Is there even a need to ask? Of course, it was you, that idiot, clinging to someone else’s thigh!”
“It’s because you were clinging to my thigh that we got to know each other!”
No way! The timing of their responses was almost the same; it was completely useless for judgment! I should have asked them different questions one by one!
“Quiet! The Kefir on the left, I’m asking you!”
My mind was getting a bit muddled. “When was our first kiss?”
“…”
This Kefir didn’t answer, just blushing and looking at me.
Hey! Alright! I can’t explain it, but it’s definitely you! This counterfeit bear-fox!
“Haha! You don’t know, do you, counterfeit? Because that was a night when only Kefir and I were together…”
But just as I was feeling smug, it turned into shock the next second, as I realized: the reason this Kefir wasn’t answering wasn’t because the counterfeit didn’t know, but because…
“Oujili!!! Don’t you think our secrets are exposed enough already!!?”
Kefir’s face turned red as she pointed at the other Kefir, and when I rubbed my eyes and looked again, the other Kefir had sprouted a pair of fox ears on her head and a fluffy tail at her back, dodging Kefir’s hand while making a peace sign at me.
“You two are really pure, huh~”
“Kissing at night is so embarrassing~”
The fox tail is out, and although… our little secret is pretty much exposed too.
This… stinky fox!!
