Chapter 210: 15-year-old Inglis and the Evil Hyrule Menace (15)

The next morning…

Standing there in front of Inglis was a beautiful young girl that even the word otherworldly couldn’t completely encapsulate her beauty. The girl wore nothing but light garments, no less than undergarments really, as she just awoke from her sleep.

Her exposed skin was slightly red, as though it was resisting the cold.

Her captivating, ideal body lines. Her ravishing, lovely face. They attracted Inglis’ attention, imprisoning her in their charm. She wanted to see them from every possible angle. Despite her being indoors, it was cold enough that her breath fogged white, so perhaps dressing up as soon as possible was a good idea, but…

「~♪」

In short, Inglis was looking at her reflection in a mirror after a long while of not being able to, and now she couldn’t tear herself away. It was the fault of the room she borrowed for having a body-length mirror, not her.

She bent her body forward a little and looked at herself in the mirror, then she turned around to check her body lines running from her back to her round bottom, etc, etc. It was quite the mature entertainment for herself.

Inglis was objectively beautiful no matter how anyone looked at her, and it wasn’t a complimentary or a biased statement. Not to mention, she already had all the glamour of a grown woman at her age.

It made her think once again that being reborn into a female body wasn’t really a bad thing at all. First of all, she wouldn’t get tired looking at herself. Furthermore, she could lavish the view as much as she wanted without inviting anyone’s irks. Well, that was obvious, as it was just her admiring herself.

And, being fundamentally a male in her soul, it was no wonder she would be captivated by the beauty of women. Perhaps, she was the number one person in the entire world who could enjoy her personal beauty.

Something quickly slipped out through Inglis’ armpits. They were smooth and lovely girly fingers. And they grabbed Inglis’ chest unceremoniously.

「Hyau?! Hey, Rani! I keep telling you…!」

「That’s my line, missus. I keep telling you how you’re always losing sight of everything except yourself when you’re in front of a mirror. You’re basically asking me to do this, you know?」

「I’m not……! Stop it’s ticklish……!」

「Seeing something you don’t have makes you envious and want to touch them, doesn’t it~ Glis, you’re my Squire, so what is yours is mine too, which means touching is OK, right?」

「Not OK……!」

「Ah, but my hands are freezing, you see~ I’ll have you warm them up, okay~」

Rafinha thrusted her hand into Inglis’s cleavage.

「HyaAAauu?!」

It was cold. Freezing cold.

「Hm～ So warm~ So fluffy and puffy, now I know how Rene feels～ Right, Rene?」

Rene, who was perked on Rafinha’s shoulder, tried to dive into Inglis’ cleavage herself, as if to say that it was her rightful place. Rafinha’s hands and Rene’s body were overcrowding Inglis’ bountiful valleys.

「For Gods’ sake! Just one at a time!」

As they were making a racket, they woke up Leone and Liselotte. Pullum was left to Lahti to care, while the four other girls were resting in the same room.

「Hwoaaam……Goodness, what’s with the ruckus!」

「Quite the merry morning, isn’t it……what are you two doing?」

「Ah, Leone, save me! There, Leone’s are more bountiful than mine, so go there instead!」

「Okaay, let’s move on, Rene!」

「Kyaah?! Hold on, it’s cold……I’m tickli——hnggh……! Wait, no……! Not there……!」

「Phew. I’m saved by Leone’s noble sacrifice……」

As the four were making a fuss and messing around in their thin, almost underwear-like garments, the door of the room was slammed open with a bam.

「O-, oi, emergen——cyhiek……?!」

It was Lahti who came in without even knocking.

「「「KYAAaaahh?!」」」

Naturally, Rafinha and the other two screamed. That was the natural reaction for girls their age.

「S-, sorr……gwahak?!」

Inglis was the only one who didn’t let out a single word. She lunged at Lahti, held his head under her armpits and pin him down.

「Lahti! Even if you’re an ally, I won’t let you see Rani’s underwear, okay? You see, I have been tasked by Marquis Wilford to take care of Rani! I can’t overlook this, okay?」

「No, you’re all I can see now! Close, too close! They’re touching me! I-I’m going away, so let me go!」

Lahti hurriedly left the room and the girls promptly started to change their clothes. However, Lahti couldn’t wait any longer and shouted at them from the other side of the door.

「Hey, did any of you see Pullum or Ian?!」

「No we didn’t, why?」

「Is there something wrong with Pullum and Mr. Ian?」

「I-, I can’t find them anywhere! Both of them!」

「Eeh……?!」

「Would’ve been great if they were just taking a stroll around the area, but……」

Inglis understood why Lahti faltered. Ian was their enemy in the recent assassination attempt on King Charleas during a play by the Weissmall Troupe. However, he personally was a good person, and his love for his own kingdom and people was second to none.

Inglis herself wasn’t entirely cautionless around him, though she trusted him to a certain extent. And that trust has now been betrayed, but even Lahti was still reluctant to say it at this stage.

「Sorry, but can you help me find them?!」

「That’s bad! Got it! We’ll look for them right now!」

Rafinha promptly dashed to search, but Inglis hurriedly stopped her from going.

「Hold on, Rani! You’re not done putting your clothes!」

Rafinha was ready to leap out of the room with her upper body still in undergarments. If she did that, Inglis’ effort to keep Rafinha safe from pests would go down the drain. She couldn’t allow her to expose her bare underwears to the eyes of the opposite sex. She would never. Inglis, personally, would supervise it tight and hard.

「Eh……? Ah, that’s not good. I was already running when I realized we need to hurry!」

「You can’t, okay? You mustn’t go out with just your underwears. You’re a girl, you should live your life with modesty and demure! Didn’t Aunt always tell you that?」

「……In the first place, should a girl who grabbed a boy by their neck in her underwear even say that?」

「I’m okay because it’s me! I did it to protect you, Rani!」

「Sure, sure. You’re a real nag about these things, Glis.」

「Stop playing around you two. We’re going first」

Leone, who was first to finish changing, hurriedly ran out of the room.

「Ah, wait……! We gotta hurry!」

Inglis waited for Rafinha to change, then they both joined the rest to search the city, however… both Pullum and Ian were nowhere to be seen.
