Demon Lord's Reincarnation Chapter 1172: We need to talk about June

Long story short, Mr. Blanco, our "Staff Sergeant" was in the negatives in terms of his approval rating to have a chance of requesting Cindy's hand in marriage—but joking aside, I wasn't even sure if they were actually dating.

He definitely skipped so steps or thought they were already on that level and if actions could speak louder than words, that kick in the head told that it was pretty one-sided.

But yeah, we talked for more specifics regarding our recently established alliance, and since they have to pass by the airport to get back to their place, they'll receive their goodie bag once they drive back with us a little later.

And in regards to Mr. & Mrs. Dewey and their children, since four of them would be coming with us—I already asked them about June, and they agreed—they requested to cook us dinner and have a al together with everyone.

It was decided we'd all gather at the cafeteria later at around 6 PM, but as I was about to check in on Kaley and June with Quinn and Tatiana, Mrs. Dewey took aside while Mr. Dewey just gave us a glance before he left the room. In addition, Mrs. Dewey looked like she wanted to talk to privately so despite the look on Quinn's face, I asked them to let us have the room.

I waited for them to close the door behind them before I turned to Mrs. Dewey, "Sothing wrong?"

"Not exactly but is the umm… relationship you have with your 'wife' and these two other ladies— Tatiana and Quinn real or not?"

I was slightly confused, "It is but… why do you ask?"

Mrs. Dewey looked like she had a ton of things on her mind but she exhaled before she spoke, "Look… Umm… I have so concerns regarding June. And before you say anything and I say more, I want to preface this by I appreciate what you did for her… June's never been that open to talking to other people she just t and with Mrs.

Rose's passing, we thought she'd just hole up in her room again to play on her devices…"

I softly exhaled, "That's sothing any normal person should do, no?"

She let out a smile, "That's true and should be the standard, I guess, but June's a little special…"

I nodded, "She is."

'She's in the sa hacker group as Ilana…'

Mrs. Dewey's eyebrows rose in surprise, "You already know?"

"Yeah?"

"Oh."

"Why? What's wrong? Hold up—" I put my hand in front of her as I tried to see if we were on the sa subject, "Looking at your face, we might be referring to two different things."

Mrs. Dewey grew curious as she looked at my facial expressions, "What do YOU know that I don't?"

"Umm…"

"Young man…"

"Look… There are just so secrets that even their parents shouldn't know about, right? I don't wanna assu but with Mrs. Rose, she probably had secrets with June too."

She let out a long sigh, "I'm afraid you're right… There's no denying that and as much as I would've hated to say this, they were closer than I'm with her—even with her dad or her siblings. Do you know that Mrs. Rose is blind?"

"...! That's… That's why she reads to her almost everyday…"

"Not almost… Every. Single. Day. To be honest, June doesn't even like reading that much. She just did it for Mrs. Rose because in relation to what you said, she just needed a person to talk to who is not one of her relatives."

"..."

"And after she reads or her for a couple of hours, it's ti for June to just talk about anything she wanted with Mrs. Rose, and in turn, Mrs. Rose would give her insights or stories from her life as well. They just talk like that for half a day without pause and it's just the sweetest form of friendship ever despite the differences they have with each other…"

"I see… That's really nice."

Then Mrs. Dewey's face looked solemn, "And the… And the reason I'm telling you all this is because you seem to be her new friend right now. Don't worry, you're not ant to replace Mrs. Rose in any way but… but do know that… that umm—"

"She's trans?"

"...! Then you already know…"

I scratched the back of my head, "I don't, actually… well not 100% but with the way this conversation is going and how my eyes usually operate—even my untrustworthy gut instincts, including her small slip-up, I had my suspicions…"

Mrs. Dewey was just staring at in silence for a few monts before she composed herself, "Umm… Well— That's uh… Technically speaking umm— Huh. Wait, how do your eyes operate?"

"Umm… Not to sound like a creep or a pervert, but I see things not commonly seen unless normal people squint and observe for a long ti normally—and even with fully clothed people, I could sohow predict where each… part… is located with 90% certainty, give or take.

And with how my brain works, I'll see one thing and I could rember it for a lifeti, making able to place it in a compartnt of sorts in my mind palace for further examination or for running diagnostics among other things… including other stuff I scanned with these eyes of mine…"

"Huh…"

"I don't know if you'll believe but—"

"I… I don't see a reason why you'd lie… I believe you."

"Thanks?"

"..."

"...also…"

"Hmm?"

"I… Is she on HRT or sothing? She— again, I don't wanna sound like a creep but—"

Mrs. Dewey let out a soft chuckle, "She doesn't 'look' the type?"

"I an… the voice, her physique, everything. Unless she's been on it for a while and has the best people looking after her, she might also be you know… Intersex or— I'm not sure about the right terms but there are differences and—"

"You're really scaring right now, you know that?"

"Huh?"

She chuckled with a gentle smile, "You're saying things I was just about to say out loud. Are you psychic?"

"Hah! That's funny, Kaley's the one usually— OH SHIT! KALEY!" I never stood up so fast.

"W-What? What's wrong?!"

"SHE—" I shook my head as I slowly sat back down, "No… She's probably fine… She just took a shower with her— She probably knew by now, is that okay?"

Mrs. Dewey sighed softly, "They're both won and I don't think your wife would be that surprised. She doesn't seem the type, you know?"

I nodded, "She's the coolest person I know about these things and I don't think you should worry about it. If she hadn't discovered June's secret already, she's probably apologizing to her profusely because she did drag her against her will. Kaley has a… let's just say a higher 'drive' in that sort of thing but she respects boundaries of people, especially if it's people she just t…"

'Not counting that other ti… It's cool for though…'

"Your wife, Kaley, I an… Is she… Is she okay with this arrangent of yours?"

"Ah… I don't wanna call it the word 'bla' but she started it… it's been pretty great, actually—not to sound like I'm bragging or anything—but open communication's been our bread and butter. Actually, uhh… we just had a major discussion just yesterday and it went pretty well if I say so myself…"

With that said, I gave Mrs. Dewey a gist of what we talked about yesterday and the few things I could share with a random person regarding our special arrangent with other people. At first, Mrs. Dewey looked a little concerned for her daughters, especially Eden who she admitted was so sort of a caged bird wanting to spread her wings and fly, but let's just say that Quinn calling Mrs.

Dewey a progressive mom couldn't be more true.

Because with the extra ti we had left, we discussed about safe practices, things specific to our circle, and most importantly, the chance that her daughters might get tangled with us in the ti that they'd spent with us.

"You… You're really cool speaking like this?"

"Of course, are you?"

"A little weird, sure, but do understand we aren't gunning for everyone, okay? It's just if we vibe or sothing and it clicks, we try and go from there. It could be a one-ti thing or sothing more but our line is that Kaley and I are like this, *squeezes fists together* you know?"

She snorted, "Apes together strong? Really?"

"I… I can't think of a better example but yeah… sothing like that."

"Okay, I think I do understand but one last question before we leave this room…"

"Okay, I'm all ears."

"June… How about her?"

"Umm… I—"

"I already know that you're the only guy in your special arrangent—which says a lot of things about your… physical prowess… but then again, June's a special case, right? Since lines were getting blurred and all if she gets involved… You said it yourself, she doesn't 'look' like one and technically isn't one either but… you get what I an?"
