29. Who are you measuring for?

Relying on my instinctual will to survive and the rich experience I had cultivated over the years as the “big villain” in this script, I finally managed to deflect the chaotic scene that Izalis had deliberately stirred up.

After that, I felt I could finally relax a bit.

After all, once the elf saint Izalis stopped entangling me, our group of four had basically turned into a situation where “she, along with the beautiful girls Kfeir and Nilu, whispered about topics only girls would discuss, while I, a man disguised as a beautiful girl, stood by, wide-eyed.”

Even though we had just been at odds, the two big shots’ attitudes toward Izalis were certainly not filled with life-and-death hatred. Once a topic of mutual interest arose, it was common for them to leave me behind. And I found myself with some leisure time, taking this opportunity to nod along with “uh-huh, yes, that’s right” to the questions the girls occasionally threw my way, while I glanced at my script.

Ever since Izalis shared more information about the other two princesses, a new “danger” had already knocked on my door.

[Urasilu wants to eliminate Izalis.]

The script stated this, and although so far it was merely the other party’s “thought,” and there hadn’t been any corresponding death script for Izalis, still… this time the opponent was that troublesome pure white nun. Would she, like the second princess before her, directly aim for Izalis’s life?

Lost in thought, I didn’t pay much attention to what the girls beside me were saying.

“Kfeir, do you want to come and take a look?”

I only knew that when Kfeir threw me an invitation and reached out her hand, I instinctively took it, thinking, “I should listen to my wife,” and then I was unknowingly led away by the three of them.

“Nero… Are you showing off?”

“Sigh~ Miss, baseless accusations are a sign of inferiority~”

In my ears, the conversation between the girls became more and more “peculiar,” naturally interrupting my reading of the script. And then…

Just as I shook my head to temporarily ignore the script, when my attention returned to the present moment, I finally noticed!

I had entered paradise, yet… also fallen into hell.

In a room not too large but enough to accommodate the four of us, amidst pieces of colorful fabrics, I saw: the delicate figures of the girls, almost in a state of undress, swaying in front of me. Regardless of whether I looked from top to bottom, left to right, all I saw was blinding whiteness.

It took me quite a while to regain some clarity, and ultimately, it was with the help of the script’s description that I realized the kind of environment I was in.

【Euclid was taken to the fitting room.】

It suddenly dawned on me: just to defuse Izalith’s risky remarks earlier, I casually pointed to a clothing store we passed by! Of course, I pointed randomly, but my dear wife became interested!

The girls went into the store, naturally to try on clothes, right? However, when my wife, with a bit of shyness, asked me “Do you want to come in too?” in the midst of my script contemplation, I absentmindedly agreed and followed her hand in hand!

Naturally, when I finally snapped out of it, what I saw was the scene before me.

“Nero…”

While unbuttoning her top, Kefir looked at Nero in doubt. Perhaps due to long-standing habits, even with me standing there, Kefir, at that moment, didn’t seem shy about undressing in front of me.

Next, she undid her belt, holding it in her mouth. From my angle, the curve of her body made me feel a bit “uncomfortable” all over, thankfully, I was currently in a “pretty girl form,” or else it would have been troublesome.

“Why are most of the clothes you brought in for changing underwear? What are you trying to do?”

“It’s just your misconception, Miss.”

Nero was in front of the mirror, taking off her maid outfit. At that moment, I was torn between looking at her in the mirror or at Nero herself. After all, viewing from different angles, the front of the girl was indeed beautiful, but looking from behind, her fair and slender body also had its charm… Oh my!

As soon as I diverted my gaze from the two, I immediately wanted to escape. However, just as I took a step forward, I realized that Izalith had grabbed my sleeve!

If you want me to stop, just shout, don’t run over half undressed to grab me; that’s even more dangerous!

“Lady Euclid, by opening the door now, do you intend to let everyone outside get an eyeful of us?”

Of course not.

There was no choice; I had to pull my legs back in. Naturally, after that, pretending to be an emotionless wooden post was no longer an option.

In the next moment, Ke Fei Er, who had long since grown accustomed to our relationship, casually waved her hand at me, calling me over.

Then she turned slightly to face me, her eyes glancing at my hands.

“Don’t just stand there, help me tie this.”

The other two gazes turned toward me, and under the pressure, I wanted to make a joke: “Tie what? Shoelaces?”

“Don’t play dumb!”

Ke Fei Er’s little face flushed, and she kicked my calf, forcing me to shiver and then hold onto those two “shoelaces.” That’s right, to me, they were “shoelaces.” Otherwise, if my mind wandered elsewhere, combined with Ke Fei Er’s body that was slightly trembling from nervousness, this situation would be impossible to manage.

However, just as I was “tying the shoelaces,” through the floor-to-ceiling mirror that Ke Fei Er was facing, I caught a glimpse of the small hint of complaint on her face after her shyness faded.

“Ou Qi Li De, why do I feel like your technique is a bit too practiced?”

“Y-Your illusion, Ke Fei Er, isn’t this all learned from you?”

“…Shh, don’t be shameless. And tighten it more; why are you tying it so loosely?”

Ke Fei Er, who had been playfully pouting, suddenly furrowed her brows. “Huh? This level of ‘looseness’… who are you preparing this ‘size’ for, Ou·Qi·Li·De?”

Through the mirror, I noticed Ke Fei Er was looking at Ni Lu in the reflection.

Along with my rising anxiety, cold sweat trickled down my back.

“F-For the future you.”

“!”

That statement left no room for Ke Fei Er to misinterpret, but that was exactly the effect I wanted! While secretly admiring my own cleverness, I hurriedly found a few pieces of clothing to shove at the still-shy Ke Fei Er, escaping from this most dangerous zone.

However…

This encounter between heaven and hell was just beginning.

“‘King’, if you have nothing to do, could you help me out a bit?”

“Lord Euler, I have something that needs your evaluation~”

…

“Understood, understood, one by one, sigh…”

I gave up resisting.

Since it’s inevitable to be seduced by this dangerous encounter in front of me, why resist…

I might as well just enjoy it.
