"Haah~, so that's why you're acting like this, now I understand."
"Nop, like I said, it's because of what you witnessed. That was horrible, and potentially something terrible for me now."
If that was what mattered. Later on she was like a total stranger, honestly, I have nothing against her, and neither does my alternate self.
She did a lot of bad things, but that was no longer any of my business or my alternate self's.
We only killed her on Aleoria's orders, and personally I didn't want to do it; after all, she was still an old friend who had gone astray.
The time I spent hunting her was more than the time we had as friends. That's why it's a little hard for me to think of her the way I do Silvia; all the good things about her were overshadowed by what happened later.
But as with Silvia, despite everything, my alternate self left the decision of how to get involved with her up to me, giving me warnings.
And this is what I decided: not to start anything and not to get involved with her was my decision.
Yes, she wasn't my friend and she never will be... although helping her is another matter.
"You're really confusing me. I don't understand if what happened next is worse or not."
"That's why I told you I was going to give you the memories."
"I already told you I don't want them."
"Well, it's your loss. I really have nothing against her; I just don't want to get involved. Honestly, I think that, from what I saw, even if I help her, she'll end up the same, just in different circumstances. It was obvious that that's what she likes."
"Why are you being so pessimistic? That totally contradicts what you always say about changing the future."
"You don't understand, Silvia: this issue is more a matter of personality. Like me with my harem, Elena and sweets, Willian and his density, you with your obsession with Willian, she's the same. Things change, but people hardly ever do."
"That's what I mean. Look at me, for example: I'm not obsessed with Willian; she can be just like me."
"...(¬_¬)"
"Stop looking away. I already told you I'm not an obsessive yandere."
"(¬_¬)... Wait! How the hell do you know if I'm blindfolded?"
"Unfortunately, I know you well, silly! Haah~ so you're totally against it, right?"
"Yes."
"...You know, if you help me, it might happen that the two of us crush you between our breasts."
"Huh?"
"Yes, remember, in the memories, the three of us spent a lot of time together, and you even managed to get us to let you put your head between our breasts once... You know, it's not impossible that we could come to an agreement again."
"Hmm, let's see, tell me more, what do you have in mi-? No!!, I won't fall for that! Do you think I'll fall for such a silly temptation?"
"Yes."
".....I refuse."
yes, that five-second hesitation wasn't because I was considering it, it was because I was surprised that Silvia would go to such extremes. Yes, that was definitely it.
'Anyway, I can do that—except with Eria—with the others in my harem.'
"Even though their proportions and appearances are clearly to your liking."
"...Stop it!.... I already said no, and you won't convince me otherwise."
"You're stubborn about these things. Fine! I get it! It seems you really don't want to be involved in this, so I'll do it on my own and prove that people do change."
"Well, whatever you want. If you succeed, I'll congratulate you and also praise you for preventing the decline of one of your romantic rivals. Ouch! That was on purpose."
Leaving aside the fact that she walked straight into a rock to cause me pain, it finally seems that we have closed this conversation about that woman.
But, honestly, even though I'm saying this to Silvia, I will secretly do my best to help her, even though it may really be in vain.
'That' already existed within her, but I myself said 'difficult,' not impossible. Even if I deny it, many of my girls have changed a lot; I myself changed. It was impossible not to recognize it.
Even so, it depends on the people themselves, and my alternate self could never fully understand that woman named Evangeline, so I won't get my hopes up about anything.
And I won't get involved with her. That's why I'll do it in secret, even from Silvia, whom I tell everything to. I don't want even the slightest chance of her connecting to me in any way.
"Ugh, you really make me angry!...haah~ Anyway, if you've recovered from that nonsense about being the eminence in the shadows, get up."
"Right, I can't be an eminence (ノへ ̄,)…"
Once again, I remembered my existential emptiness, because I can't be a rock? Even she has a better chance of being an eminence than I do.
"Chris! Stop that. Ah!, there are the girls. Well, let one of them take care of you... Hey, but why does the other you seem so normal, while you're here embarrassing me?"
"Oh, that's the part of me that lives in ignorance and doesn't understand that we can no longer be an eminence. Let her be happy for a while, eventually the harsh reality will hit her."
"I still don't really understand how those skills work. It's you, but at the same time it's not; they're very strange skills."
"Oh, about that, you know, Alice has them too, but apparently she can't do what I do: ignore the doppelganger and act independently."
Yes, I was almost able to do it from the beginning, ignoring what the other one does. But apparently she can't. In order for one thought to control the other doppelganger, she must be aware of what she is doing.
If she stops doing it, it stops working. So she is aware of everything her doppelganger does and can't stop doing it; unlike me, who simply ignores them or puts them out of my mind, and knows nothing more about them unless I want to.
That's why the one who is now Seraphina is so normal, despite her close encounter with that woman.
"Yes, you're an anomaly, as always. Well, let one of your girlfriends take care of you."
After that, Silvia handed me to Selene, who carried me in her arms like a princess, to gently cross the rift to the middle world.
'Yes, I can no longer be an eminent figure; at least I hope these last few months of classes will be peaceful...'
.
..
A week had passed since we arrived in the middle world, and, really, it wasn't very good for me.
Everything was annoying, from the instructors, who intensified everything, to the few hours of free time I had to do something with the girls.
I haven't even been able to meet with Astrid alone because of how hectic everything has been, but I think all this is because they want to shorten these three months, and that's why they're so agitated and sadistic.
Another thing I thought would happen was that we would have classes or things like that together with the other kingdoms, but once we disembarked and arrived in the middle world, everyone went their separate ways and there were no more interactions.
Same with the previous generation: there were no interactions with them, which I appreciate, as it would be annoying and I'm sure I'm in the crosshairs of many.
I thought that if I could keep it up until the end, it would be great... but those were my thoughts from a few minutes ago, because harsh reality hit me again.
"H-hey, when did I agree to do this, I didn't think it would be like this, this is weird, I can feel your breath."
"Mmmph…yuu 'agreed, y' can't… back out..."
There I was with Aurora on a sofa, with her giving me a lap pillow and me happily on her thighs.
Of course, I had to make the most of it, so I put orthodoxy aside and took it while lying face down.
I thought it was the least I deserved. One of Aurora's remarkable qualities, even when she's in costume, is her thighs, and I'm going to take full advantage of that.
"Stop, seriously! This is weird, because your breathing is getting heavier.?"
"I´m havin'… truhble breathin'… but if I… hold on… a lil' longer… don' worry…
"That's not the point, idiot!"
This happened because of a fair exchange, or rather, it was an exchange in which I lost out. I don't understand why she's complaining.
"Huaa~, okay, now stroke my hair tenderly and talk to me nicely. It's good that my eyes are covered, so I can imagine you in your other form".
At that moment, satisfied and a little out of breath, I turned around looking up and made more demands. I felt that it really wasn't enough yet.
"S-stop fooling around, you're exaggerating, don't push your luck."
"You're my girlfriend, what's wrong with doing it?"
"You know very well that this isn't..."
"Haah~ well, it seems that this is your limit. Now tell me, why did you do everything you could to get me to meet Celestine? If you want me to help you, you'd better be honest."
A few minutes ago, when the exhausting school day had finally ended, Aurora suddenly grabbed me and dragged me away, where she started talking to me about meeting her sister the princess of this kingdom and a sharp and cunning woman, whom I don't want to get involved with either.
She seemed desperate and even willing to give in a lot to convince me.
So I took advantage of that, earning my desired lap pillow.
But honestly, for me, it wasn't worth the trade, but the circumstances didn't seem simple. Her desperation was what caught my attention, so I played along.
Now it was time to get serious and find out the real reason.
I don't know much about Aurora's relationships with her siblings, other than Maximilian, but based on her personality, I can't imagine Aurora getting along with that princess, to the point of letting me do this just because she asked.
"Haah~ well, she knows... she knows I'm a demon, she threatened me with that. "
