Chapter 162: Revealing the whole truth

Besides, Silvia hadn’t found out about my other identity, fortunately. I had probably never thought that Serphina was my real identity, when Silvia was using her skill…..

’yes, I’m an idiot, haaahh…’

“What, how so, what did you mean by ’he’s relieved that you don’t know it’s Seraphina’? I just read, that’s what you thought before on the true identity thing!?. I answered everything, now you fess up!”

“Fuck, Silvia, having your ability activated at times like this is cheating.”

“It’s your fault. I had my ability activated since before you tied me up. I can’t use my mana, but it’s self-sustaining. I can’t even control it, so it’s your fault.”

’Who knew that thinking about what I didn’t know would make me know. Damn cheating ability’.

It’s late, but I will definitely create a countermeasure after researching the phenomena of large frontal mass attraction, and whether it was a coincidence that the names of my butlers. were so generic…. ’damn world with so many questions and no answers’.

“Hey, stop thinking nonsense and answer.”

“Haaah…, okay, I was going to tell you anyway, you’re the one getting ahead of the revelations.”

There was no need for her to pressure me, I would still explain everything to her, since I had no choice. I would spend time with Silvia and little by little she would find out everything. Luckily, she is a good friend.

If not, I would faithfully believe that my alternate self would put her on lists of people to kill or to stay as far away from as possible. Well, yes she was on the second one, but that was in case I tried the foolishness of conquering her, which I didn’t do.

..

I started telling her everything, including about my alternate and future self, something I hadn’t told anyone so far, not even Elena. But if I didn’t tell Silvia, many things would remain unanswered.

I mean, she thinks I can see the future, so it could lead to misunderstandings and problems later. I omitted the specifics of the legacy, as I thought it unnecessary for her to know.

I didn’t go into much detail about him. I only mentioned things like the ability that allowed me to transform into a man and how I saw the state of people. Now that she should be under my complete protection, me telling her should be fine.

Besides, the gods of both factions are unaware of the seven legacies of the other. So, if Silvia didn’t know key things like the legacy of lust or the 14 god-hunter legacies, the sun god wouldn’t be able to put anything together, as he should be looking for the 7 legacies of his faction.

..

.

“Okay, that’s it.”

“…”

“Phew…, somehow I feel good about finally getting it out, the subject of my alternative self.”

“…Chris, humm.., there is a doctor I heard was very good. I’ve heard that when people believe in their own delusions, it’s a serious situation, humn…., but I think there is still salvation for you, I’ll take you to meet him…, but untie me first.”

Silvia, in a soft and calm voice, spoke to me. Her gaze was full of pain, but there was still hope, as if she herself was trying to believe her words.

“Damn it,!! Silvia, I tell you my biggest secrets and you treat me like a madman!.”

“I told you it’s not that…. First, untie me and let’s talk calmly, okay? Don’t worry, I believe you, but untie me.”

“Before you say that, change that pitiful expression of yours. Fine! You want proof, right? Well, here it is.”

I decisively undid the morphogenesis and showed my true appearance. Not only that, I sacrificed all my mana and summoned my clone, which I had undone to fully concentrate on the task of deceiving the goddess.

I also pulled out the medallion that only direct members of the Silvercrest could possess.

“Okay, now, what do you have to say? Here’s the evidence, who’s crazy now?”

“…”

“Hell, say something! Why are you just standing there not understanding! Hey, hey, Silvia, answer me!”

There was Silvia, staring off into nothingness, as if she was trying to escape reality. It’s not like she doesn’t understand.

If all of a sudden your friend tells you that he’s someone else, or that he’s a reincarnate, and that he met his future self to change the future, yeah, he’ll probably try to deny it by calling me crazy.

But with the evidence, now his brain short-circuited. Luckily, I’m here, and she can’t go crazy. I cast several mental and soul stabilization spells imbued with purification on her to remove any seeds of insanity.

I might be exaggerating, but who knows; to me, Silvia has always been the most mentally delicate among my acquaintances.

..

.

It was no longer necessary, so I untied her while she seemed to be digesting everything. Finally, after a while, she began to question me. She seemed to want to sort things out in her head.

“Well, first, you’re a woman biologically, right?”

“Yes.”

“you are seraphina Silvercrest, the only female daughter of that questionable duchy.”

“Hey, what’s wrong with my house… no, you know what, you’re right. With my father being the Duke, it’s no wonder there are rumors.”

“don’t interrupt, I’m asking the questions, you’re a reincarnated being, like in the history books, right?”

“Yes.”

“In your previous life you were a man, so that’s why you transform into a man with a legacy you inherited.”

“Yes.”

“You know the future and stuff because your future self or something like that came and gave you all its knowledge, right? That’s the ’alternate self’ you always mention.”

“Right.”

“One more thing… If I’m not mistaken, the reason you insist on pairing me up with William is because in that alternate future I liked him, right?”.

“Well, by this point it’s obvious. And let me tell you, now that you know, in love was putting it mildly; you were crazy about him, to the point of …. no, well, the important thing is that you don’t need to act tsundere anymore, right? Now we can be open about it.”

“…Hey, that’s something that’s been bothering me, what the hell is ’tsundere’? It’s a word from your previous world. Sometimes I see words like that, especially that ’tsundere’ one.”

“Well, it’s what it means to be dishonest with your feelings and act violently, like you did when we were talking about William.”

“Haaah. Okay, I get it all now.”

“Whew, that’s a relief. Well, now we can be good friends from now on, right? I’m a girl, so it should be more comfortable, right? Well, whatever.”

“Hey, Chris, one last thing.”

“Hey, why are you calling me Chris even when I’m in my normal appearance? Call me Seraphina or Phina; otherwise, then I get confused.”

“Hey, do you think it’s easy to call someone different just because you changed your appearance?”

“Isn’t it?”

“No.”

’Uhmm, that’s strange. The rest of the girls easily divide my genders and don’t mix them up, even when I’m in my hybrid form. But hey, everyone’s different; she just have to get used to it.’

“Well, what I wanted to ask you… since you sometimes seem a bit desperate and say it’s for my sake, what is it that happened between William and me in that alternate future for you to be so insistent?”

“Nothing”

“Huh? Then why do you want to…”

“It’s exactly because nothing happened, you damn shy, you kept your feelings until the end and blew yourself up. and now You’re going down the same path.”

“Huh, aren’t you overreacting, you think I’m crazy enough to do something like that? After all, you do have to go to a doctor.”

“Oh yeah? And what the hell were you trying to do during the examination, you crazy yandere?”

“Hey! Stop using words I don’t understand, and for your information, it was just to scare you. I wasn’t planning on throwing anything, did you really think I would?”

“(¬_¬)”

’The truth is, I thought it was strange that she wanted to take us both to the afterlife for a silly thing, but one never knows.’

“Did you really think I would?”

“Hey, stop using your Skill.”

“I’m not using it, your face says it all.”

’Okay, so you don’t look convinced. I’ll give you proof.’

I pulled out of my storage a green jewel. It was a common device used to record images, memories, information and whatever else you can imagine. Mine was an upgraded, full-fledged version, which I made to be single-use.

I usually use them to record the arts and breathing methods I have in my head, to give to someone else. I concentrated and neatly extracted all the memories I had of Silvia.

I don’t want to sound arrogant, but my alternate self was by far the one who understood Silvia the most. although not everything, since it was only in this life that I found out that I was a noblewoman, since Silvia did not like to talk about houses that happened before entering the academy.

That aside she was a very good friend, sincere and trustworthy, ignoring how yandere she was with William. and It’s no different for me at this point, so I have no qualms about telling her everything.

I passed her the crystal, which had the function of throwing everything directly at her head when you put mana on it. Immediately, those memories would be in your mind as if they had been there from the beginning. That was the improvement I made to it.

In fact, what my alternate self and my legacy did was almost the same, but more advanced and complex. To this day I still unlock memories of my alternate self, about some knowledge and events when I go through a metamorphosis.

Maybe he thought that having everything from the beginning, when he didn’t have metamorphosis, could be detrimental. So he gave me the most important memories so that I would understand quickly and accurately from the start.

It was especially useful for things like arts and rune knowledge. If I had them from the beginning, my brain would have exploded. Now, every time I moved up the ranks, some memories would pop up and gradually complete the puzzle of memories.

..

Silvia was looking at herself in the alternate future and was making a face more and more… how to say? complicated….
