Chapter 131 Luna-san’s marriage interview Part 2

Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: ”Weasalopes”

Sopan was speechless.

Because all of this was way too different from the image of the saintess that healed people for no compensation.

As for the father, he, a bit frightened, asked Luna-san a question.

「Is that, truth, that you are using violence on your younger siblings?」

「Su-such a thing…… I’m doing…… Not……」

Luna-san muttered, shyly pressing her index fingers together.

Reading all he needed from that attitude, the father rose up from his seat in indignation.

「What kind of woman are you! Even considering such a sadistic woman is preposterous! This proposal is null!」

What a great decision, father. Laura-san and I smile sweetly.

However, contrary to his father that was about to leave, Sopan didn’t move at all.

Even when the father called him, Sopan remained unfazed.

「Honored Papa…… Indeed, some of Luna-san’s actions can be considered questionable. However, as long as she doesn’t wield violence on me, isn’t it all okay?」

Uwaa, we got a real champ here!

This time it was our turn to be shocked.

Of course, the old man also almost dropped his jaw.

「Though she is a saintess, behind the scenes she is a violent woman. Such a gap makes me excited. People are more fascinating when they have a hidden side.」

Amazing.

Sopan-san’s interest grew even further.

Without a moment of delay, Laura-san tries to push back.

「Onee-san uses violence on her close ones. It’s hard to think that Sopan-san alone will be an exception.」

「That’s where money come into play.」

「Onee-san can’t be moved by wealth! The only thing that moves her heart is unreasonable violence!」

What a thing to say. Even though it’s a lie, Luna-san seems dejected.

And the man has mysterious confidence that for some strange reason she won’t abuse him, and would instead shower him with love.

I don’t get what is going on, at all.

「I want to talk with just the two of us. I trust my intuition. You are not that kind of a woman.」

Aah, now I get it…… Sopan saw through our lies.

Perhaps he is better at discerning the truth than his father.

It seems that I wasn’t alone in this thought, with Luna-san seemingly realizing that as well.

「Noir-dono, Laura, it’s fine. This could’ve been solved if I was honest from the beginning.」

It looks like she wants to end the spectacle. Luna-san spoke her mind looking straight into Sopan-san’s eyes.

「I have no intention of marrying you. I came here because I was unable to refuse the request of my benefactor.」

「It doesn’t matter. Do you have a lover?」

「N-no, I don’t.」

「Then you don’t have to think about the marriage for now. But I will keep trying. I will visit you every day. I will surely make you fall for me.」

Aah, this is the worst possible development.

Among men, there are many that like chasing their love interest, and it seems that Sopan was one of them.

He seems very passionate about it, so he might follow Luna-san around for quite a while. Both Luna-san and Laura-san seem out of ideas.

Thus, I take the last remaining option. Just in case I whisper to Luna-san, asking for her approval on what I’m about to do.

Since I’ve got her consent I switch to action.

「Sopan-san, she is hiding her true appearance by means of a skill. I will reveal it to you now.」

【Ugly face】 200 LP

Creating this I attach it to Luna-san. 800 LP required, pricey.

It’s safe to think that the required LP went so high due to Luna-san natural beauty.

A total of 1000 LP is by no means cheap.

That’s one of the reasons why I didn’t want to use it until the very end.

The other one, I felt very sorry about turning a woman’s face into something unsightly, even if that was only for a moment.

「Such a thing……」

Sopan was shocked, grabbing his head with both hands.

That was because Luna-san’s beautiful visage completely transformed.

I quietly address Sopan in his stupor.

「Can you still love her?」

「…I’m going back. I won’t say that you tricked me. It was my fault for not seeing through this.」

He seems pretty reasonable and upfront. I kind of began to feel that he might become someone big in the future.

I felt like asking him something, so I stopped him.

「What if the previous face was her real one――But eventually turned into such a face, what would Sopan-san do?」

「I’ll break up.」

「So the looks are everything?」

「I wouldn’t say that, but outward appearance is a huge factor defining the appeal of the person. You as well, if your gentle girlfriend turned violent, wouldn’t you want to break up? Why breaking up over that is okay, but breaking up over the face is not okay? Wasn’t the face one of the things that I liked about the girl? I hate hypocrisy. Then, bye.」

After boldly stating his own opinions he walked away with his father.

Though there were some points where I could agree, ultimately I’m of a different opinion from Sopan-san.

He doesn’t take in his calculation the relationship or love that the two would foster.

Humans can hold affection even for inanimate objects.

If it’s a person then it can become a far stronger one.

Even if the looks of a loved one were to change I’d prefer to stay together. That’s what I think.

Though some might say that this is naive.

Now, I immediately break 【Ugly face】 by using 【Edit】. 300 LP required? Spending 1300 LP just to wriggle out of the marriage interview is quite costly.

Luna-san’s face changed back to a beautiful one.

No matter if the face is good or not, if the person is tall or not, usually there are not such skills attached.

It takes 【Create】 to forcibly make and attach them.

The power that can warp reality. I realized anew just how powerful it is.

「You spent a lot of LP, didn’t you?」

Luna-san looked apologetically.

「No, it’s not a big deal. It also seems that we would get our compensation from Sopan-san.」

Though they left, it seems that they properly paid for the food.

It seems that the father told the staff to feed us anyway.

Let’s feast!

「Noir-san, it’s lobsters, lobsters!」

「Let’s try them.」

Since the bill wasn’t on us we ate as if we didn’t plan to eat anything in a week.

It makes me want to scream aloud how tasty it is.

Steamed lobsters, soft meat that melted in the mouth, fresh sashimi, all of it was utterly supreme.

After enjoying the meal, stuffing until we were bursting, we left the restaurant. Pointing at the stomach Laura-san makes an indecent remark.

「I got stuffed by Noir-san.」

「Please, stop.」

「Ufufu, just tell when you’d like to do it for real.」

As we had such an exchange, Luna-san stopped and looked at us with a serious expression.

「During the marriage interview, I was really grateful to you, the whole time. Money is indeed important, but there are some things more valuable than that. And I already have them.」

Laura-san and I give her thumbs up.

Luna-san replies with the same. I like this spirit of helping each other in trouble.

「Do you two have any troubles yourself? I’d like to help you somehow in return.」

「Nope, nothing in particular. If anything, the quality of cosmetics lately.」

Even without cosmetics, she is pretty beautiful, but I guess it isn’t that simple.

Well, after all, among the receptionists there are even some that claim that cosmetics are their weapon. It’s a bit hard for me to get into that mindset.

「What about Noir-dono?」

「Well, I can’t say that I’m troubled…… But I have something that I want to do no matter what. I want to free Masterーー」

Trapped in the hidden dungeon, Master was suffering even at this very moment.

The 15th floor should have some hint concerning freeing her.

That’s why I want to get stronger by any means possible.

And accidentally I blurted out those thoughts. The two listened with serious expressions until the end.

「If there is something I can do I will help you any time. Noir-dono surely can overcome this obstacle!」

「I think so as well! I will support you on your journey to becoming the strongest!」

「I’ll do my best! I’ll definitely set Master free!」

The current hurdle might be the biggest I have faced until now.

Even so, I had no intention to give up.

Please wait for a while more, Master, I will certainly get it done!
