Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Madame Rose wasn't fazed at all when she heard this, she just revealed a smile as she looked right into my eyes.

But Cecilia on the side wasn't as calm as Madame Rose.

She could feel the slight tension that arose because of this and she gripped her sword a bit tighter.

With the way that she was moving slightly towards Madame Rose and the way that she was looking at me, it was clear that she would support Madame Rose in this matter.

But I didn't mind this and continued looking at Madame Rose.

Madame Rose was silent for a bit before suddenly saying, "You're smarter than you seem."

I couldn't help being taken aback when I heard this. After a moment's pause, I asked, "What do you mean?"

Madame Rose looked right into my eyes and said, "You seem like you don't know a thing, but I know that you're usually waiting for an opportunity to make your move. You're much more intelligent than you make yourself appear and you know how to be patient. Normally, that kind of person would be very dangerous…"

She let her voice drift off when she said this.

I felt another chill run down my spine when I heard this.

I never thought that she would be this direct with her answer, I had thought that it would at least be another reason. But it seemed like she was much more observant than I thought…

After she said this, Cecilia had narrowed her eyes to look at me, as if she was appraising me for the first time.

Cecilia had never thought much about me, she had made it clear. However, when she heard what Madame Rose said, she couldn't help feeling that she had completely underestimated me.

So she moved closer to Madame Rose and even slightly pointed the sword in my direction.

I wanted to say something, but before I could, Madame Rose raised her hand to stop me.

She looked at me still and said, "I don't mind that you're like this…because you are mine, right?"

The slight pause and the upward inflection of the latter part of words, it was clear that she was…threatening me. But at the same time, it was almost as if there was a pleading tone to me to make things clear.

I looked at the way that she looked at me and I couldn't help feeling strange.

In the end, I gave a nod in response without saying anything.

When Madame Rose saw this, she revealed a happy smile. At the same time, she stood up and patted my head. It was almost like I was being treated as some kind of dog, but I didn't seem to mind it that much.

Cecilia still had a distrusting look on her face, but she could see the look on Madame Rose's face. She knew that if she did anything, she would be making things worse.

She put away her sword, but there was a clear unwilling look on her face.

After this had been settled, Madame Rose continued by saying, "I trust that you'll be able to make the best judgement for yourself once you get in there. I don't think that I need to tell you what kind of things to be looking for."

I hesitated for a second before slowly giving a nod.

Since she had already exposed me, there was no reason to pretend any longer.

Since she valued me for my intelligence, then it was better to fully display this intelligence so she wouldn't abandon me.

But there was still one issue that was biting the back of my head.

I couldn't help looking at her with an unsteady gaze before suddenly asking, "Why do you trust me like this?"

Madame Rose was surprised that I would suddenly ask this, but then she said with a smile, "I like to think that I have a good judgement of character and I feel that you're someone that I can trust. That is unless you are saying that you aren't someone that I should trust?"

I quickly shook my head in response to this.

Madame Rose couldn't help chuckling when she saw this before saying with the same smile, "I know that you aren't, you don't need to worry that much. It's not as if this little thing would change what I think of you."

I felt a bit touched when I heard this, but then I remembered what she wanted me to do.

She was clearly not someone that I should let myself relax around.

Until we took care of the Lord Baron, until I found a way to escape this monster wave, until I found a way to stop being her sex slave, I couldn't let my guard down.

She stood up after trying to fix my cloak to no avail and said, "You'll just have to go like this. It might look a bit strange, but with the cloak and the mask, people shouldn't question you."contemporary romance

I nodded in agreement to this.

Even if this cloak was a bit too big for me, that should be expected.

This was a secret society that this cloak was associated with, this wasn't a place where they customized cloaks for each of their members. So the one that she received was most likely the standard issued cloak and no one would think too much of it if it was too big for my body.

The only problem might be if they questioned why someone as short as me was in their meeting.

But I could take care of that when that came.

I'm sure that it wouldn't be hard to come up with some kind of excuse to explain this.

This was a society where the identities of most of the members were hidden.

After that was settled, Madame Rose suddenly came forward to take me in a hug. She brought my head up against her chest, almost smothering me as she said in a soft voice, "Come back safely to me, alright?"

I was caught off guard by this, but I said in a muffled voice, "I will."

When she heard this, she hugged me even tighter.

On the side, Cecilia just watched all of this with a complicated look on her face.
