Chapter 92.2

(EP-92.2) My Home #3

092 – My Warm Home #3

It was very bright inside the mansion.

The haunted mansion of the past was nowhere to be found, from the previous blacked out curtains to the now colorful tinted glass.

That alone transformed the dark and eerie den of darkness into something like a holy cathedral.

“You removed all the curtains?”

Before, there was no other light source other than the candles and lanterns, which was why it got so dark despite it being in the middle of the day. As I was recalling the details, Mirna replied.

“All the corpses in the cemetery have been stolen, and there are no more corpses to manage. Thus, it doesn’t matter if I let the sunlight into this mansion.”

“I see.”

“Anyway, I’ll prepare the meal, so please wait, commoner. Oh, and don’t touch my things.”

“Understood.”

“If you are bored, you can read some books. I’ve piled up all the Angmar related ones there. I don’t know how useful they are to you, though.”

Mirna pointed to a pile of about twenty thick books, just as she said. Those would probably take me a month to read.

“Then, I’ll start preparing.”

And with that, I was left alone in the living room.

I felt like Mirna’s attitude towards me was considerably softer than it had been in the past.

Perhaps she had grown to really like me?

BUT, there was a big need to first distinguish between the goodwill that a woman gave and attraction. Otherwise, you might simply embarrass yourself.

As my brain started to daydream, I grabbed a book to cool my head.

The title read ‘Fun Facts about the Angmar Family – Graybeard Colton’.

This looked interesting.

「Angmar Family members are usually born with red hair and sapphire blue eyes.

Generally, the men are gentle Giants, with broad shoulders and are intellectuals.

On the other hand, the women of the Angmar family tend to have a fiery personality-.」

Knock-.

Someone suddenly knocked on the door. The only ones available in this spacious mansion were me and the Young Ladies of the Draco Family.

As I put my book down and lifted my head, a person came in and waved at me.

“You’re here Theo!”

━Enjoy your meal together!

Narmi was reflected in the mirror... How was that even possible?

The reflection acting differently from the person in front of the mirror?

Wasn’t that a horror movie cliché?

However, to the Draco sisters, this was nothing out of the ordinary.

The Draco sisters didn’t see themselves when they looked at the mirror, but their sister.

Thus, they could only infer their own appearance by looking at the sibling.

“So, what do you think, Theo Gospel?”

Shuk, shuk-.

Mirna Draco asked calmly while cutting the meat on her plate.

Having just swallowed another slice of meat, I wracked my brain to find compliments for Mirna’s homemade food.

“The sauce is on point. It really brings out the flavor of the meat and cuts the grease-.”

“I am certain you know what I was asking, are you not? Or are you just so surprised that you are left speechless? Or maybe you are purposely avoiding the topic-.”

Mirna’s brows were slightly wrinkled. Meanwhile, Narmi in the mirror covered her mouth with both hands.

I asked.

“Are you talking about your sister?”

“Yes.”

Shuk, shuk-.

The noise when the knife sliced against the plate sounded agitated.

Now that I thought about it, Mirna’s hands were trembling unnaturally. She was acting a little different than usual.

Was she nervous?

Maybe Mirna was fearful of confessing her strange constitution.

For me, I didn’t really feel anything because I already knew it. Unfortunately, this meant that I had been too calm.

I needed to feign surprise now!

As I was trying to come up with the appropriate reaction, Mirna asked.

“... Did this change your mind about me?”
