Chapter 104: Death

“Well…you know, Silvia, like I said I’m really sorry I will definitely make it up to you if you have any problems or need my help I will do it without asking. I hope we continue to get along well.”

I was now going to retire as I headed to Elena’s real room and would take Eira to hers on the way. I excused myself one last time and prepared to separate them.

“Th-this, Chris…wait!”.

“Yeah, what’s wrong?” ’ I don’t forgive myself?’

“Y-you still have… that… there…”

Suddenly, as I reached over to pull Eira apart, Silvia stopped me and pointed to something on me. More precisely, my pants.

’Goddess of purity, here your most faithful believer are you listening to me? Please don’t let it be what I’m thinking.’

At that moment, when she pointed to my pants, I looked up to heaven and prayed to that wretched goddess I knew in person.

Even though I hated her with all my being, I prayed. But again, that bitch didn’t listen to me. So I snapped back to reality and looked down.

’Damn you, you bastard! What are you doing observing the situation so calmly?’

Indeed, my “Shenlong” was peeking out of my pants that luckily I still had, he was observing the situation without flinching or shrinking, even in this awkward situation.

Sometimes I wonder if he really knows how to read the environment. He was already on the edge of discomfort, so I simply “uninvited” him, making him disappear as if he had shrunk. Without looking Silvia in the eyes anymore, I withdrew.

“This, Silvia… as I said, I’m sorry…. I-It’s getting late already. I’ll leave you to silly Eira. Right now she thinks you’re Selene, so she probably won’t bite you. Get some rest. Good night.”

I left the room. I didn’t feel like anything anymore. This time I went to Elena’s room, which was also open. I went in, and she was asleep, but this time I made sure it was her and that she was alone.

I didn’t go to my room, because it’s already like a habit to sleep with Elena. Finally, without waking her, I fell asleep peacefully, hoping that there would be no awkwardness between Silvia and me tomorrow.

..

.

“…” I started to open my eyes and realized that in front of me was a beautiful black hair.

Nothing unusual, as I tend to sleep with Elena every day. It was the first image I saw every morning. I instinctively pushed her hair aside to see her face. Then, I hugged her tighter, seeking her comforting warmth.

I lingered, enjoying the sensation as my mind cleared. I felt my soul and mind that yesterday was beaten and wounded, finally find comfort, the comfort of another person I loved and for nothing in the world would I want to lose.

’as I thought, I’m an idiot for almost dying inside that stupid mirror and listening to the stuideses of the reflection.’

At that moment, Elena began to stir and, as always, sought my warmth. Perhaps because I am still a man, she frowned slightly at the feel of my firm chest.

I thought about undoing my morphogenesis to make her more comfortable, but before I did, she opened her eyes and looked directly at me.

“Darling,” she whispered, still half asleep.

This is why I like being a man; every time she calls me that, a shiver runs through my entire body. Besides, since he only usually says it in intimate moments, that he said it now activated something in me.

My ’Shenlong’, which was clearly invoked without my consent, began to harden.

’¿Seriously, I think I need to teach this idiot some common sense, he can’t just run around out of control, and he’s not even sorry for defiling Silvia’s buttocks.’

Elena, who was just waking up, noticed the situation and looked at me warily.

’don’t blame me that thing has a life of its own.’

but knowing her I went over and gave her a kiss on the forehead as I said good morning, it was our time of love.

“You know, someone fell asleep last night when she had promised me something.”

I was absolutely sure that, through our “couple communication”, I had sent that message, when the drinking party was just starting.

“Sir Christian, I don’t know what you mean. I could stop making up promises that never existed.”

’Hum, I guess being drunk can interfere with communication. Next time I’ll use real magic.’

But I couldn’t accept her answering me so formally at a time like this.

“Oh, come on, Elena, why are you going into work mode? We’re still in bed. Call me ’Dear’, or at least ’Phina’. It’s still early… How about a quick one? Besides, I’ll go back to being ’Phina’, but my friend stays. I know you like it that way too.”

’humm…that’s weird,’

At first I was just going to complain about what she called me, but I ended up negotiating something else. Well, things in life, sometimes unexpected things happen and you have to adapt.

just in case, I activated my blessing and radiated purity, so that she understands that I don’t think anything bad, and that those words came out without any bad intentions.

“…”

She looked at me with a suspicious and thoughtful expression. I knew Elena was aware of my blessing from the goddess of purity, though I never told her directly like I did Astrid.

Nor was I crazy enough to show her my stigma, though she did show me hers on her back.

Well, my purity aura didn’t work on her, that’s why Astrid was my first successful attempt, but I tried it just in case, Maybe I’m better at using it now it works,….. but I realized Elena was as invulnerable as ever.

’well, I tried’.

Luckily, after negotiating a bit more and promising her a “totally yuri” round after the first one, she agreed. More is better, so I would never refuse.

Knock, knock.

Just as I was about to change my appearance to feminine, the door rang.

“Elena, are you awake? Oh, the door is open, I’m going in.”

I heard Alice’s voice and The door opened. I didn’t pay too much attention to her, thinking maybe she could join us.

However, the panicked expression on Elena’s face caught my attention. I wondered what had happened, as it was very strange to see her like that. well, whatever it was, I will ask her when I finish transformi….

’Oh, shit.’

At that moment I understood what the problem was, but it was already too late to transform.

Several magic arrows flew towards me. Although I dodged them, they were enchanted with tracking spells. I had no choice but to hit them with my bare fists to destroy them.

“Yo-yuo!!... how dare you do this to Elena!?… I let it go yesterday, but you dared to do it again!”

Alice shouted, her face full of anger. The arrows were definitely lethal, but this was no time to dwell on such small details. I had to react fast.

My mind raced for solutions. The first thing was to calm Alice, so I moved at full speed, subdued her and closed the door to avoid attracting attention. The rooms were soundproofed once closed, so you wouldn’t hear what happened here.

“Let go of me! How dare you force Elena to do this, my big sister will tear you apart! No, I’ll do it myself! You’re a pervert!”

She wouldn’t stop struggling, even when I held her tightly. I could tell she was more stubborn than Eira. I looked at Elena for help, but her expression clearly said, ’It’s your fault, you fix it.’ She was ruthless when she put her mind to it.

“Elena, help me! Between the two of us we can get rid of this pervert. You must have been scared, right? Don’t worry, my big sister will help us hide the evidence!”

It was the first time I had seen that side of Alice. Although she didn’t say as many things as Eira, her words were enough to break the emotional shield I had built behind Eira’s insults.

I felt something break inside me, and unintentionally, I loosened my grip, allowing her to break free. She hit me hard, but what hurt was not the physical blows, but the emotional. My heart was in great pain.

Finally, Elena intervened, restraining Alice before she could hit me any harder. In fact, I think she was going to use a real attack to finish me off, for good.

“Miss Alice, calm down. Everything has an explanation.”

“Elena, let go of me! I’m not done with this scum. How can you be so calm if you’re the victim?”

“…My Lady… I think it’s time to tell the truth,” Elena said in a cold tone that brought me back to reality.

’I guess it’s time to tell the truth.’

There were no other options. It was time to tell the whole truth, although I would have preferred to do it at another time, more calmly, not when it seems she wants to kill me.

“Wait… Elena, what are you saying… Where’s my big sister, what’s going on?”

I stood up, still 100% ’Shenlong’, oblivious to the gravity of the situation.

’This bastard.’

Seeing me, Alice covered her eyes, throwing death threats at me nonstop. I could barely undo my transformation as my mind was being hurt and I had little concentration.

“W-well, Alice, it’s a long s-story, but, as you can see, I am Sera-seraphina,”

A little nervous, I said in my original voice, which was Serafina’s voice, but Alice, still covering her eyes, refused to accept it.

“You think because you can imitate her voice I’m going to believe you? I saw yesterday what you’re capable of.”

Oh, right, yesterday I demonstrated my talent for changing voices. But now I just needed her to look at me for her to understand that it’s me, so I asked Elena to force her to see me.

..

“… Big sister…? What are you doing here…? Did you get rid of the pervert?”

Well, it worked, but she still didn’t understand that the “pervert” and I were the same person.

I would slowly explain, but first I needed to soothe my wounded heart. I told Elena it was okay to let go. Alice, still cautiously, which was understandable walked towards me. I was about to welcome her into my arms when….

Suddenly, Alice pulled a knife out of her bag .

“You thought you’d fool me with that illusion! This is for defiling Elena! Die!”

She stabbed Me. Worst of all, it was a knife I had given her myself. By the time I processed everything it was too late, My mind began to cloud, and slowly, I closed my eyes.

That day, I died.
