173 – Exposed Under The Sun #2

“... No, so you’re Narmi!?”

Elga tapped the restaurant table with her fingers. Her demeanor seemed emotionally unstable. This situation must be dissatisfying for her.

“Narmi Von Draco!?”

Narmi said in response to Elga’s question.

“Yes, that’s correct!”

Whether it was the straightforward answer that didn’t sit well or something else, Elga furrowed her brows noticeably. Then, she suddenly pinched my thigh.

A sharp, nymphphobic pain suddenly shot up my spine, leading me to scream involuntarily.

“Hieek...! It hurts...!”

But regardless of my reaction, Elga continued to fume in anger.

“Hey, Theo. What are you plotting this time? Are you making fun of me?”

“Plotting!?”

“Narmi, what Narmi? You’re just reversing Mirna’s name! If you want to pretend to be someone else, at least draw a fake mole on your face!”

“Ah.”

Elga seemed to think that she was being teased. It was as if we created the persona of Narmi to mock her.

「You have calmly judged the situation!

You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.

All job experience +5」

‘I see.’

From Elga’s perspective, it made sense.

If Elga suddenly said, “Hello, I’m Gael. I’m Elga’s twin sister,” and acted like someone else, I would seriously consider whether she was making fun of me too.

“I also knew you know. I was just playing along.”

‘That’s a lie...’

“Anyway, this is Mirna’s twin, right? Twins sharing the same body. Seriously, Draco folks do a lot of weird stuff. Hiding it until now too. Sneaky rogues.”

I poked Elga’s side after that somewhat rude comment.

“Elga-nim.”

“What? I didn’t say anything untrue.”

Narmi, who was sitting in front of the shrugging Elga, said.

“It’s okay. I already know that Lady Lioness is honest!”

“Is that so? How much do you know about me?”

“As far as I know. You like embellishments, cute or pretty things.”

“Hmm. Anything else?”

After that, Elga and Narmi chatted with each other for a while.

Unlike Mirna, who was usually strict and stoic, Narmi was bubbly, which made her seem to be a good match with Elga.

“Yeah, my sister is a bit savvy. She says it is disrespectful to eat bread dipped in butter!”

“It is. Wow, it’s really funny. But what we’re talking about now, Mirna doesn’t know, right?”

“That’s right!”

Contrary to my concerns, Narmi, Elga, and Aira were friendly with each other, sharing casual conversations.

It was unknown whether it was due to their commonality of growing up as young ladies or Narmi’s friendly social skills and demeanor. Either way, I felt a sense of relief.

“So those weirdos attacked and there will be a trial by combat soon. Hey, Theo, have you decided on who will represent the duel?”

Elga’s conversation arrow pointed toward me. It seemed that she was talking about the recent incident involving the Queen’s attack. It was not unusual because everyone was talking about it lately.

After thinking it over, I gave my opinion.

“I did choose someone who can definitely win, but before that, I want to meet the guy in prison myself.”
