Diana, who was still unaware of her mother's intention, slowly approached her mother, who was staring at the mirror she was holding.
"What's wrong, mother?" Diana saw her mother was focused on the mirror and grinning; she glanced and found a strange boy was staring at them.
Diana suddenly froze; seeing the boy's face, she felt like she had known him somewhere. She then vaguely remembered that familiar face, "D ... es ... mond ..?" Diana muttered incredulously.
Apart from Desmond's long hair, which made him look even more handsome than before, Desmond's right hand had also returned intact.
Diana glanced at her mother and found her mother also frozen with shock. Her mother's gaze seemed as if she had missed something significant.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the mirror. By the time Diana looks in the mirror, Desmond doesn't know what else to say. Diana's clothes were arguably sexier than her mother's; the collar of her nightgown was so loose that it even showed the shadow of her developing nipples.
Meanwhile, apart from being loose at the collar, this nightgown also showed off its long, clear, and beautiful neck, creating a seductive appearance.
Apart from that, the mirror that Desmond was using also seemed to cover all of Diana's body. Her long, white legs made Diana's attractiveness no longer at the youth level!
It was true, Desmond admitted that he was a bit tempted, but that feeling was normal for a boy his age. Not to mention, before he was reincarnated, he was still young and died young!
If it weren't for his bitter adolescence in his old world, maybe Desmond would have caught up with this honey trap.
In addition to experience, it changed his view of women; it also changed how he behaved and even judged women.
Desmond only glanced at Diana's body for a moment before turning his gaze to Clementine's expression. Seeing her face amused Desmond; how could Clementine not realize his condition when they first communicated while Diana, who just came, immediately realized it?
Clementine, who was silent, suddenly realized that Desmond's eyes had glanced at her daughter's body. She then chuckled, "Heheh, Little Desmond, how about that?"
In front of Clementine, when Diana heard her mother call 'little Desmond,' it managed to confirm her guess. She wanted to greet Desmond but then realized what her mother said.
Her cheeks flushed red, and she averted her gaze from Desmond and looked at her mother angrily, "Mother!" Diana covered her collar with both hands and sat in the chair next to her mother to cover her exposed bottom.
"Ah ... young people ... mom will prepare your clothes for a moment, you talk to Desmond first." Before Clementine left, she winked at Desmond, who was in the mirror reflection and whispered something to her daughter.
Hearing what her mother said, Diana, who was facing Desmond in person, became even more embarrassed. She did tighten her collar with both hands while lowering her head.
Desmond, who was on the other side of the mirror, just looked at this expressionlessly. Indeed, from the outset, Diana's impression of him included some things he disliked.
In his view, Diana was an arrogant, uncontrollable child and, most importantly, naive. Diana is a child who thinks this world will always be white with only a few black spots that make it unworthy of sight.
She considered that crime was limited to hurting, slapping, or hitting without any further revenge, like a princess.
Yes, like a princess, this is the attitude Desmond hates. Although he was treated like a prince in his previous or this life, honestly, he didn't care at all; he also never considered life trivial.
If Diana keeps seeing this world like that until she reaches adult, then it would be certain that her behavior was no more than that of those despicable aristocrats. Where they will force what they like and throw away even what they think is inappropriate.
If it must be said to be a genius, Desmond admits that Edward is a smart person in overcoming psychological problems. But after the nobles system is eliminated, it will also result in the chain of command in society being destroyed, as now the prime minister has to manage the entire territory of the kingdom.
It will probably be a problem in the future if the prime minister is betraying the kingdom like Sieg's case, thought Desmond. Apart from studying magic, he also didn't forget to study the circumstances of this world. After all, he had also heard the saying, get to know your environment, so you will be able to mingle and even deceive the people who live around.
...
As Desmond was daydreaming, Diana, who was also silent, felt strange about this silence. She wanted to start a conversation but was too embarrassed by her previous actions. She glanced at Desmond and saw him staring at her calmly.
This pissed Diana off inside; it was like Desmond didn't show any attraction to her body or had no lust for her. Because of this, she became sullen and decided to wait for Desmond to start the conversation.
Meanwhile, Clementine, who was in front of the wardrobe, sighed in regret at the sight of her daughter's behavior. Stupid child, I seem to have paid little attention to her, though Clementine.
Clementine decided not to force her daughter to communicate with Desmond anymore, "Move, let Mother do the talking." Clementine crossed her chest while staring at her daughter, who was pouted for no reason.
"Hump," Diana snorted and went straight to leave the room.
Clementine wanted to scold Diana when she saw her behavior, but she held back for this time, "What happens, little Desmon-" Clementine paused when she saw Desmond still looking at her like a statue. Clementine was rendered speechless seeing this.
Maybe my daughter is innocent, just this kid who is just a little weird; Clementine sighed, "Hellooooooo" She raised her voice to make Desmond wake up.
Desmond, who was daydreaming, immediately realized when he heard Clementine's voice, "Ah, I'm sorry, Miss Dia-" he also stopped his words when he saw that it was not Diana who was in front of him, "- Mrs. Clementine. " Desmond smiled awkwardly as he closed his eyes
"Honestly, little Desmond, if you continue to act like that, maybe in the future, you will difficult to find a wife." Not girlfriend but wife, Desmond, who was on the other side of the mirror, was shocked to hear this.
He almost forgot that this world was still a civilization era where the thing called girlfriend was replaced by the name fiancé, while for children his age looking for a 'wife' is a natural thing.
Desmond fell silent at Clementine's answer. Even his former self was unmarried. He opened his mouth and closed it again; he doubted what answer to give.
But to Clementine, Desmond's behavior made her eyes light up. I know, this kid is just shy! I will definitely teach my daughter to conquer his heart!
"Let's get back to the main topic, so what do you want to talk about, little Desmond?" The Clementine tone was not flirtatious; although she looked at Desmond in a relaxed and calm manner,but when looking closer into her eyes, it's like telling 'State your request. I don't have enough time to joke again.'
Desmond, who had been hesitating, also took this seriously, "Before that, I wanted you to promise that you would not spread this news." By the time Desmond spoke, he no longer called Clementine's name politely because this was no longer a trivial matter.
Apart from that, Desmond also unintentionally gave off a killing aura.
Meanwhile, Clementine, who was on the other side of the mirror, frowned at Desmond's sudden change in attitude to her. "Hey, little Desmond, have I offended you?" She clearly remembers her relationship with Desmond beforehand went very smoothly, even when Desmond's hand was injured.
Wait .... Clementine just realized this; she glanced at Desmond's right hand and found it was back intact as if nothing had happened. Even though she was shocked when Diana indicated it, realizing this again made her more shocked.
How it possible?! Even people she told to heal him said his arm can only be cured by a 2nd wizard, which means Desmond...
Desmond also noticed Clementine's strange attitude and noticed her eyes were looking at his hand, "My hand was healed by Guild Master." Desmond emphasized the word 'master' here because he heard that this guild master was both a friend and Weston rival.
OH, Clementine's expression was as if she had understood all the riddles. Still, when she remembered his murderous aura directed at her made her expression slightly ugly, even she felt as if Desmond's pupils had turned snake-like, slanted, and threatening.
"And to answer the previous question, it doesn't exist. It's just that this is related to my parents. " Desmond was no longer releasing killing intent carelessly; he had just noticed when he saw Clementine's expression.
I still need her, thought Desmond. He was now confident that he could kill Clementine using all of his strength if she spread the word about his parent.
Although they had known them for years, to Desmond, a friend was an enemy that had not yet attacked. He prefers to hang out with people who have clear intentions about their goals than are good at the front but have a thousand plans behind him.
