"Is this... Selene, I know it may sound repetitive, but really, we’re eting your family right?"
"Uhm..."
"But tell again, why do I have to be blindfolded?"
"Mm... secret...."
There I was, being led by the hand by Selene while blindfolded. As if it wasn’t enough that I was already nervous about eting my in-laws, when we reached a certain area of the capital, Selene handed a tape and told to put it on, while saying:
"No cheating."
Basically, she was asking not to use any other senses to perceive my surroundings, including obviously magical detection. If it weren’t for the fact that I trust Selene so much, I would think she was leading into a trap.
In fact, I do trust Selene, but I’m wary if soone has(Eira) tricked her into sothing, so I couldn’t help but ask several tis. She just said that Eira asked her to be a surprise, so I would be blindfolded.
Which, again, didn’t reassure in the least, but I also don’t think Eira would do anything with what happened yesterday, let alone in front of Selene. However, the nervousness in did not abate.
It was the first ti I had t an in-law; to the point that I had forgotten they existed.
Elena, who was an orphan, had no parents. Alice... well, I knew the Marquis, but only from the perspective of a female friend of Alice’s, so it didn’t count.
Astrid didn’t even talk about them, and knowing her story, I don’t think I’ll ever et them. I thought the sa of Selene, who rarely ntioned her family. But here I am, being led to her, and I’m one hundred percent sure that Eira plans to make look bad. Although I didn’t understand why she brought it right after asking out.
’No, wait... if she wants to wear that too and make look like a womanizer (Technically, he is)...... how wicked! She wants to sully my na’
As I thought, Eira’s thods keep evolving, I had to adapt and match her thods or she would catch off guard.
’Fine, if that’s the way you want to play, let’s play. I’m not afraid of the marquis, or anyone, worst case scenario I’ll initiate a secret relationship with Selene, nothing will stop our love.’
I decided to be shaless and adapt to whatever would happen, I wasn’t afraid of anyone in this kingdom, I am a Silvercrest after all.
’No wait, right now I’m Tristan’s son, a knight, humm, I’ll ask my dopelganger to save in the worst case scenario.’
Besides, more than the possible dangers and consequences, this was an opportunity, an opportunity he couldn’t waste.
"So, Selene, did the marquis and marquise find ti to finally et ?"
"Hmm... it’ll just be my mother."
"Oh!, simpler... ehm!, I an, you think if she recognizes , we could do it over there, right? You said you had to get permission from your mother or your sister, right?"
That’s been an immovable issue for the past few months, and I haven’t managed to convince her at all.
But if I play my cards right, I could finally go all the way with Selene, who, although it didn’t seem like it, was hard to change her mind, even in ultimate ecstasy. I noticed that she gets very curious when we do it in a group and she sees the others, but still she doesn’t give in in the slightest.
it was as if she had an imaginary chastity belt, and only her sister and mother had the key, although they probably couldn’t foresee an anomaly like . Anyway, I waited anxiously for Selene’s answer.
"Yes, if mother gives permission..."
"Good! Madam Marquesa, here I co. I’ll show her I’m the best son-in-law, Selene, pick up the pace, I have a mother-in-law to impress!"
With new motivation at play, I was going with flas burning in my heart. Finally, I could do it with Selene, who had never given in, even though we had done even worse.
Knowing her, if I didn’t get permission, we could go to the end of ti whit her being a virgin , and there’s no way Eira would give permission, so this would be my only chance.
’I didn’t think this through, but I should bring a present? right? Hummm... I think I had a recipe for a beauty potion, older won like that... maybe fairy dust would be good too... humm, oh! I also have magic jewelry, they serve as accessories too.’
I was thinking that inside my storage bag would be a good present to make a good first impression.
We kept walking as I asked Selene questions about her mother’s tastes, as I wanted to give her the perfect gift. I needed to get on my mother-in-law’s good side before Eira sohow ruined .
..
.
After walking around for a while and deciding on a gift for my mother-in-law, I felt a strange sensation as I walked.
"Why do I feel like this is familiar sohow?"
I wasn’t cheating or looking through my enhanced senses, but for so reason I felt like I was familiar with the surroundings.
It was a familiar feeling, perhaps? could you say I had walked this path more than once before? The sensations I am naturally feeling, such as the sll, the atmosphere and the sounds, were for so reason familiar to .
"Well, I’ve been to my mansion several tis, and we should be in the noble district, right?"
Yes it was obvious if I thought about it more, from once I have passed this way, maybe my house and the twins’ house are closer than I thought, and that’s why that feeling.
I didn’t probe any further, thinking that when the blindfold was removed, I would find out. Finally, we seed to have reached our destination and Selene began to remove my blindfold.
I was a bit disoriented, and it took a second to notice that the door Selene was opening at that mont was especially familiar.
But then again, it’s not like I could rember all the doors I had opened or passed through. Even if at this mont soone asked what my bedroom door looked like, I wouldn’t know how to answer.
I just felt like I would recognize it when I saw it, and that ambiguous feeling was also in this door. I felt I had seen it and even opened it before, but I couldn’t rember where or when.
"Well, maybe the door is from the sa manufacturer as one in my house...that’s why it feels familiar."
I thought quickly about this and maybe it was because I was so nervous that I wanted to distract myself with anything. The feeling of familiarity with the door and the environnt before was the goal, I was so nervous that I felt everything go by slowly.
I had never seen a door open so slowly. I felt like I had my thinking racing, like I do in battle, so I got distracted by sothing else while the door just seed to move super slowly.
’Yeah, I think I’m too nervous. The last ti I felt ti slowing down like this was when I had a hole cut open in my chest. Haaa...’
I decided to strengthen my resolve. Beyond that would be my mother-in-law, who could either ruin or boost my relationship with Selene. I had to concentrate as hard as I could.
This was as important as facing the goddess, I needed all the focus I could muster. And I set my determined gaze as I watched my hands clench tightly, giving the courage I lacked.
And before I knew it, the door was open, where beyond, supposedly, was my mother-in-law. Here I would definitely gain her recognition and finally get the keys to Selene’s imaginary chastity belt.
I took a deep breath and looked up to see my mother-in-law’s face, making my best expression and unleashing nothing but pure intentions, giving a first, good impression.
"Oh, welco, dear guests, how may we serve you today?"
There she was, a woman near the window, in an awkward position, as if she had suddenly stopped in the middle of sothing, covering her face with a fan and giving a welco as if we were custors of sothing.
"Mother, what are you doing, what did you an, why are you acting even weirder? When I asked you to act nice, do you want to kill with embarrassnt?"
There was Eira scolding said woman, who was futilely trying to cover her face....
"Well, whatever. Mother, just take a seat and behave properly. It’s not too late yet."
I watched as Eira led what looked like a petrified woman to the seat, and with the slightest bit of hope, I asked Selene, just in case I was wrong.
"Th-this, S-Selene?"
"Yes?"
"W-well, just in case... the wo-woman in front of us not is your m-mother, right? is your sister or any other relative, right?....Please, at least tell she’s an employee or soone who just happens to be here, tell she is." ."
"Hey!!, I heard you, how rude! why are you calling my mother an employee?... I told you mother, he was no good, he has the audacity to call you an employee, even when you are just getting to know each other".
"Y-yes, that’s right, dear..... W-why don’t you ask him to retire..... R-right now I feel very offended, s-suddenly I don’t feel the need to et with n-anyone."
"..."
’Noooooo!!!, now I’ve really fucked up!!!! What the fuck have I done, I want the earth to swallow up’.
I could no longer keep my composure. I fell to my knees and began to rave as I clutched my head, wallowing in the shocking situation, no matter how hard I tried to evade, I realized that I had indeed fucked up big ti.
"Huh? Just like that? E-seriously... no, I an right away, if mommy says so, then I’ll kick this idiot out. Selene, you heard her, help kick him out!"
’No, this is no ti to go into confusion, I need to calm down and deal with the situation.’
"W-wait, give a mont, Haaahh... okay, I’ve already cald down. Haaah.... no, wait, give another mont.haaahhh.... Let finish digesting it again. Haaa... well now I’ve regained my composure...haaa..., Leyla, but what the hell!!!"
