Chapter 55-2
After the Constellation disappeared, two hours later, Riche walked to her room after listening to all of Kanes excuses.
Something is suspicious
Although Kane said they had known each other for a long time, Riche felt that his eyes were strange.
They shook like a frog in front of a snake and was sweating a lot.
And thats not all. Although Kane had dated other women and spent time alone with them before, he had never openly shown his interest to anyone in front of Riche.
However, today, even with Riche right next to him, he accepted her offer without hesitation.
We need to have a meeting.
As Riche thought of this, she arrived in front of her room.
She opened the door with a serious face and took out a communication crystal from the desk drawer.
Then, Riche put her mana into the crystal.
Hey, Riche. What happened all of a sudden?
Skayas voice came from the crystal.
Riche answered her with a serious tone.
Yes, its not something else. We need to have a meeting.
A meeting? Are you serious?
Yes, I am serious.
In a voice that sounded irritated, Skaya said:
No, why is he always attracting women like this? Even the saintess! Ugh, I totally agree with you.
Skaya was right. It was undeniable that Kane was handsome, but he was always surrounded by women.
In fact, he was so good-looking that women passing by would stare at him.
As Skaya stomped her foot angrily, she asked:
So, who is the woman this time?
Um I dont know, replied Riche.
Huh?! You dont know who she is? Skaya was surprised.
Riche was not only any weaker than Eileen or the top students at the Royal Academy, but she was also a professional assassin from the David family.
There was hardly any information that she didnt know.
Especially when it came to people in her interest, she was even more knowledgeable.
While Skaya was momentarily stunned, Riche replied in a cold tone:
I think shes a noble.
Whats your basis for saying that?
Its not so much a basis as it is her behavior, demeanor, and overall dignity. Also this is just my intuition, but she didnt seem like an average person in terms of her abilities.
Hmm if youre saying that, then shes probably not an average person. Ill contact Eileen. When do you want to meet?
Riche replied firmly to Skayas question.
Now. I think it would be good to meet right away.
You seem to be in a hurry?
Yes. Thats right. But Skaya, didnt you clearly say you didnt like Kane last time?
Thats right. When Skaya was studying for her last midterm exam at the cafe, she said she didnt like Kane.
Of course, her behavior showed otherwise.
Actually, Ive known this for a long time.
Ever since they were childhood friends and Skaya has liked Kane.
Of course, she seems to deny it herself.
Well, if its about Skaya
Polygamy is legal on the continent.
Thats why I admit women like Skaya.
Its understandable because she was the one who, despite in Kanes rogue days, was particularly concerned about him and the person who pushed for the relationship between herself and Kane none other than Skaya.
So, as a woman like Skaya, she would be satisfied as Kanes wife .
Of course, she cant compromise on the quality of the person.
And shes also a duchess
Thinking about this made her happy to be able to see Kane every day as his personal maid, but on the other hand, it felt like a curse.
In reality, the chances of her and Kane being together because of this position are not very high.
Anyway, the sudden arrival of that woman wont do.
Its true that Kane is handsome, but shes not aiming for him just for that reason.
Its clear that theres some intention behind it.
While Riche was suspicious of the Constellation, Skaya answered her question as if making an excuse.
Oh, no. Im just Kanes childhood friend. Yes! I was just worried, thats all!
.I see. I understand for now. Then lets call Eileen and gather there.
With those words, Riche headed to a famous cafe in the Royal Capital.
***
Upon hearing the news from Skaya, Eileen put on her pink training clothes and took the handkerchief Kane had lent her before heading to the cafe on her date.
She arrived at the meeting place soon after and ordered a drink from the sweating cafe owner before going up to the second floor.
Eileen, were over here.
Youre already here?
They called Eileen as if Skaya and Riche were waiting for her.
She sat down in a seat that was somewhat empty, and turned her gaze to Riche.
Why did you suddenly call us like this?
Yes, let me explain.
Riche explained to Eileen what she had told Skaya.
Although Eileen had a calm expression on her face, she was boiling inside.
Ugh! Why do he keep getting involved with womens?
While Eileen was stomping her feet inwardly, Riche opened her mouth like pronouncing a death sentence.
And the most important thing is that Young Master will have a date with her tomorrow.
D-date?!
What?!
Hearing those words, the two of them are surprised, with their eyes wide open.
Eileen quickly stands up from her seat.
Coincidentally, at the same time, the owner of the cafe gives her a drink with an awkward smile
Here your drinks are ready.
Ah! Thank you.
Eileen takes the cup as if she had naturally stood up to receive it.
Then she nonchalantly drinks her beverage, pretending nothing happened.
Sip, sip.
The two of them stared at Eileen in disbelief.
Eileen coughs awkwardly, feeling uneasy.
Ahem. So, what do you suggest we do?
In response to her question, both Skaya and Riche looked at each other.
Riche then responds to Eileen with a serious expression.
What if we follow them?
Well, thats not a bad idea, but the problem is, Riche, do you know when they will meet?
In response to Skayas question, Riche recalls the conversation she overheard between the Constellation and Kane earlier.
I overheard when they are meeting earlier.
But, isnt that a crime?
In response to Eileens question, Skayas conscience was pricked and she couldnt bring herself to answer.
However, unlike the other two, Riche brazenly remained expressionless and shook her head.
Its not a crime. I just happen to be on the same place as Young Master.
Her rationalization left the other two at a loss for words.
They knew that Riche liked Kane, but they couldnt have imagined that she would be so shameless to do eavesdropping.
However, the two also liked Kane as much as Riche did.
Therefore, they nodded their heads in agreement, rationalizing, like Risha.
Yeah, thats right. They made a promise with each other, but our routes coincidentally overlap with the two of them.
Thats right. Its unavoidable. Its absolutely nothing like tailing.
So, the three of them made an alliance for the first time, rationalizing their actions.
