I was somehow able to coax the sulking Nals and we were now sitting inside the Moulin Rouge.
After seeing Lily whom I introduced to him his mood immediately got better.
“My, for such a beautiful person to exist in real life!”
“Oh my, Nals-sama, you’re smooth”
“No, those are my real thoughts. I mean Fawn Pavilion’s Felicia certainly is splendid as well but…… I’d like to use you as a model for a doll by all means. May I?”
“A, a doll……? But am I really good enough? The other Onee-san’s are much prettier.”
“No, you are fantastic, it absolutely has to be you! I want to immortalise your beauty!”
“Ah, ye, yes. Then later. But first, we have to get to know each other better, okay?”
“Understood! I’ll come here as much as possible from now on”
“I look forward to it”
“……Rozea, was Lily that type of girl?”
“What do you mean?”
“That, she perfectly led Nals by the nose.”
“Oh my, is that so?”
“I thought Lily would be a simpler girl.”
“That girl’s still a resident of the night world after all.”
For her to lead an intellectual like Nals by the nose, Lily is incredible.
“……Hey, Rozea, you’re not like that, are you?”
“Well, does Carlo-sama think I only utter manipulative words?”
“No, I don’t think so, but seeing Lily like that, it’s too shocking”
“If you doubt my heart, please don’t come to this shop anymore”
“He?”
“I’ll be sad that I won’t be able to meet you anymore but it’s a lot better than you doubting my heart”
“Ah, that’s not what I meant”
“I honestly wanted to meet you, that’s the truth. But it’s just too painful to be doubted by Carlo-sama”
“No, no, I’m not doubting you”
“But didn’t you say that just now?”
“Because Lily was playing Nals so skilfully, I just carelessly asked”
“Then do you trust me?”
“Naturally! I, I mean, I trust Rozea. I do!”⌈1⌋
“I’m relieved……Now I can feel at ease”
“I’m sorry for troubling you, Rozea”
“Carlo-sama……”
Aah, Rozea’s teary eyes are so beautiful.
I’m a sinful man for making such a beautiful woman cry, seriously.
Next time I come here, I should give her a present as an apology.
“- – General, what do you think?”
“What do you mean with “What do you think”?”
“……right”
“Lunos, you guys should be more careful as well, don’t you think? You recommended this shop.”
“To be told “You got led by the nose” by Margrave-sama?! I don’t want that, speaking off, is the General alright?”
“I, I’m already, see, that. Aged. Right, Fitz, what do think?”
“Right, let’s hear the leader’s opinion!”
“I’m not really good with such things, so I don’t really know”
“Well, it’s like that, huh? However, it might be good for Carlo-sama to learn a thing or two”
“That’s right, well, if it’s with Rozea it shouldn’t turn out terribly. She’s a good woman”
“Carlo-sama seems to have fun, so isn’t it fine?”
It soon turned into an enjoyable night, time to return, huh?
Rozea held my hand today as well.
Those three old birds were just giving me luke-warm looks, but I bet they were just jealous.
