Chapter 165: Temporary truce
[Marie Alter leads you to a French cuisine restaurant.]
[After a long walk, the two of you finally arrive at the entrance of the French cuisine restaurant she mentioned.]
[It seems to be a hotel.]
The street was filled with a mysterious, hormone-laden atmosphere.
Eikou looked up at the hotel frontage full of French flair — wrought-iron Baroque gates, a stone fountain, and the mosaic tiles inside forming an image of the Versailles garden. Built on a foundation of modern technological equipment, the place still carried a warm and comforting French ambience.
"This French restaurant feels…" Eikou looked at the decorations, "just from one glance it looks very serious!"
"Hehe, as long as you like it." Marie smiled.
Eikou looked at the heart-shaped ornaments hanging at the entrance, and beside them was a line of sparkling pink French words. He curiously asked: "What's the name of this restaurant?"
"'For the one I love most.'" Marie Alter blinked and smiled.
"Umu… that's quite romantic."
Crazy, it clearly said in French: "Until You Dry"! Jeanne Alter complained inwardly.
"Sorry…"
Eikou touched the pocket of his jacket, and suddenly frowned,
"Since I didn't know beforehand, I didn't bring my ID when I went out."
"Is that so, then that's a problem…"
Marie Alter gently furrowed her pretty eyebrows, revealing a slightly troubled expression.
"But it's fine," he looked straight ahead and spoke with determination, "as a gentleman, how could I let a lady like you be disappointed! Please wait for me here, I'll run back to the dorm to get my ID and return immediately. You can order first!"
"???"
Jeanne Alter on the side couldn't bear to look anymore.
You idiot, the "French cuisine" you're about to eat is even more luxurious than you think! By the time you come back, that "dish" will probably heat itself back up already!
But this was good too — while Eikou was gone to get his ID, she could confront Marie Alter directly!
If she didn't stop them now, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"..."
The moment she saw Eikou dash away, Jeanne Alter stepped out from the darkness nearby.
Pop pop pop.
Her black high-heeled boots made heavy tapping sounds on the ground.
"Oh, our Queen,"
Dragon Witch spoke in an extremely irritated tone, walking as she talked, the magic power in her hand forming a jet-black sword,
"Did you have fun playing with him today?"
She spoke with a gloomy face.
"Oh, it's you…"
Marie Alter noticed her approaching step by step, her narrow seductive eyes flashing with a dangerous golden light.
"I knew it — you'd definitely show up to cause trouble."
"Exactly, because to me, the greatest happiness is making someone else miserable."
Without hesitation, Dragon Witch raised her sword straight up, then suddenly thrust it with force toward the wall behind Marie.
From the very beginning, it was an unhidden, intense hatred — like a blazing fire.
"Queen, getting to date him for an entire day should be enough for you, right?"
"Is that all,"
Marie Alter smiled sweetly.
Even though she kept the Spirit Origin form of a young girl, her allure and confidence were fully that of a mature woman.
"For an innocent girl like you, having even one romance is probably already impressive, isn't it? But for me, the love hotel tonight is only the beginning."
"Hey, don't you get greedy!!"
Hearing that arrogant provocation, Jeanne Alter instantly blushed with fury,
"You think you could go on a date with him tonight thanks to what — wasn't it because I allowed it? If I hadn't agreed, he would NEVER agree to date you!"
"To hand your man over to another woman for a date, are you stupid?" Marie Alter looked at her seriously.
"Aaaaarghhhhhhh!"
Jeanne Alter clutched her hair, enraged to the point she could only scream helplessly under those words.
"A-Anyway, anyway…"
She blushed, took a deep breath, forcing out all the tension and embarrassment in her chest,
"Mochizuki Eikou is mine, I won't allow you to lay a hand on him!"
Marie Alter only looked at her coldly, asking: "Then have you prepared to offer yourself?"
"W-What…?"
"What do you mean what — how long do you plan on lying to yourself? Didn't you see how many women in Chaldea already want to lay hands on Eikou?" Marie Alter said coldly, "If you don't take initiative, there are plenty who will. That's why you need to act first."
"I'm different from you — you're a conservative girl, but I'm a true Alter. On the contrary, I won't hide it from him. If I like someone, even if it means using dirty tricks, even lust-driven physical relations are fine for me. But can you go that far?"
The young Queen showed a cold, disdainful expression as she pushed the black sword pointed at her aside,
"In other words, our determination isn't on the same level at all. If you don't dare to have sex with him, then stop interfering."
"In the end, you're just a timid girl who doesn't even dare to confess."
"No…"
Jeanne Alter's face darkened, she shook her head,
"Queen, have you forgotten? I'm also an Alter."
"?"
The next second—
Swoosh!
A black coat with fur on the collar was flung aside with a swoosh, landing on the ground just like that.
Jeanne Alter let the coat fall, lowered her head, slowly raising a hand to brush aside the bangs on her forehead.
"If tonight you're planning to do that with him right here, then I…"
When she lifted her head, her snow-white face was already burning red.
Jeanne Alter shyly pressed her lips together, then with a tone that shattered all hesitation, she yelled straight at Marie Alter:
"Then I'll do it together with you!!"
"???"
Marie Alter widened her golden eyes, staring at her in disbelief,
"You… you're actually serious?"
"Of course I'm serious!" Jeanne Alter stepped forward, cornering her, face red, "Don't forget, I'm the brutal Dragon Witch. A simple threesome together is nothing! Something like that is no big deal at all for me!
"I'll show him that compared to you — the big-boobed Queen — being with me feels way better!"
"..."
"..."
A droplet of sweat slid down the delicate white face of Marie Alter.
This is bad. She pushed too hard and accidentally cornered this timid girl!
At this rate… everything is about to slip completely out of control…
Marie Alter's ultimate goal was to become the first cream-eating of Eikou, and from there monopolize him.
But if she had to share the "cream" with Jeanne Alter, wouldn't Eikou also have to take responsibility for Jeanne Alter too?!
No, the consequences might be even worse…
Eikou, experiencing something luxurious like that for the first time, might fall into depravity, and from then on keep playing the "one dragon many phoenixes" game nonstop!
Damn Dragon Witch… forcing her into this extreme corner…
"Dragon Witch, you really are something…"
Marie Alter wiped the sweat on her cheek, her expression somewhat troubled,
"Temporary truce…?"
In other words — following the fine tradition of France: I surrender!
