(EP-209.1) Summer #7

209 – Cold Summer #7

“Cold summer?”

“Yeah, that’s the nof this operation. Just so you know, I’m not telling you because I like you or anything. Got it?”

Agent A snorted and turned her face to the side. But she peeked with one eye to gauge my reaction, this sly fool…

I wanted to smack her silly.

Anyway, this was the effect of the magic “Mero Mero Beam” that I developed.

It created a gap in people’s minds, and they would start acting coy. 

Although the magic was full of imperfect elements due to its incomplete development, it was perfect for interrogation as it didn’t cause any harm or damage to the body.

Thanks to this, we learned that the mission Agent A was referring to was called “Cold Summer.”

“Cold summer. What are the details of the operation?”

“… Who do you think will answer that honestly?”

Agent A deeply blushed, as if she was incredibly ashamed. After watching for a while, Mirna finally spoke up.

“It’s cumbersmagic. I think it would be better forto just force it out of her.”

“But we won’t get anything if she dies. Although it’s bothersome, it’s an useful tool, so if you wait a little-.”

“Why are you whispering to each other? Are you ignoringnow?”

Agent A wriggled her bound arms and legs. She seemed annoyed that Mirna and I were having a conversation without involving her. Ridiculous. But Mirna was the one who responded with a smirk instead of me.

“You said you wouldn’t tell me.”

“Well, that’s true. But still, you shouldn’t just whisper with each other in front of me. And you two, stay a bit further apart. Is it okay for a man and a woman to stick together like that? Huh?!”

Agent A lowly growled with narrowed eyes. Seeing this, Mirna grabbed my collar as if she had an idea.

At that moment, Agent A beceven more agitated.

“What are you two doing! Get your hands off of him!”

“I see~.”

Mirna nodded as if she had realized something, then this time, she slowly grabbed my fingertips.

Mirna’s hand was so small, soft, and squishy that there was no chance of mistaking it for anything other than a woman’s hand. However, there was little tto appreciate them.

Because the bound Agent A was in a frenzy.

“What are you fools doing! Can’t you get off quickly? Why are you staying still!”

Seureureu-.

Probably thinking that her threat worked, Mirna released my hand. Then she began slowly nodding as she mumbled.

“She seems to be jealous of me.”

Perceptive indeed.

“It is similar. It’s a spell designed to make the target feel favorably toward the caster. But it’s not completed yet, so they beccoquettish like this.”

“Aha. But a spell designed to make someone like you. Why would such a thing be necessary?”

Mirna sharply glared at me, which made my heart pound. Why was such a spell necessary? Well, to seduce someone and win their favor…

This was like those hypnosis apps.

But if I spoke the truth, Mirna would spit fire from her mouth. So, I turned my attention away with a poker face.

“Isn’t there something more important than that right now? I will explain it slowly later.”

“…….”

Mirna’s suspicion was far from dispelled. The only relief was that Agent A seemed to feel excluded and irritated by our private conversation.

“If you keep ignoring me, I won’t tell you the truth!”

“Are you thinking of telling the truth?”

“Hmph, no-!”

Was she playing with me?

This foolish rogue…

I’d make her know who was in charge here.

I reached out my hand and gently hugged the silent Mirna’s waist. Then her slender body swayed slightly towards me.

“Ahh…!?”

As Mirna let out a startled noice, Agent A was fuming. 

“Get, get away! What are you doing?!”

But being a tied-up prisoner, she couldn’t stop my actions no matter how much she protested.

I continued to embrace Mirna’s waist and spun around. Holding one of her hands, we danced to a one-two rhythm. Someone observant would have noticed that it was waltz.Thɪs chapter is updated by ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

“Sir Theo.”

Mirna, being led by my hand, opened her slender eyes. Did she not likegrabbing her waist and dancing with her?

However, her next words were slightly unexpected.

“You really have no moves for this. You’re like someone who has never danced.”

“…….”

… Well, I had nothing to say because it was true.

“Okay! I’ll tell you! So stop!”

That was when Agent A screamed, putting an end to our light-hearted ball. I stepped away from Mirna, bent down, and looked into Agent A’s eyes.

“Alright, telleverything slowly.”

“…’Cold Summer’ is the nof the operation.”

“You already said that.”

“The mission was to infiltrate the Draco Family and bring someone back. I didn’t hear who it was. I was just told to bring a man.”

“You didn’t hear something like, ‘Bring Theo Gospel’?”

“I didn’t hear that. I just heard about bringing a man. And that if they don’t cooperate, we can bring them back by force.”

It was an order to bring someone back. Since I was the only man staying at the Draco family, it seemed like a clear order directed at me.

It was someone who knew I was staying at Mirna’s house. Did Aira try to kidnap me? 

“Sir Theo, let’s ask who the boss is.”

Mirna’s words broughtback from my thoughts. 

“Who issued such an order?”

“I don’t know. We simply received an official document stamped with the Tarantera Family’s seal. We just faithfully carry out the job.”

“What else is there to hear? This is Queen Tarantera. Sir Theo, you know a lot about the Queen and Angmar. They want to eliminate you, not just expel you.”

She had a point.

Was Aira really trying to get rid of me? Thinking about it madefeel as if a blade was aimed at my throat. It sent shivers down my spine…

If it had cto this, wasn’t it already beyond the point of reconciliation and dialogue? No, there was no need to ponder alone any longer.

I asked Mirna, who had been silently observing our conversation. 

“What do you think, Mirna-nim? Do you think Queen Aira sent assassins after me?”

“It would seem so. Anyhow, Sir Theo, how long will the strange magic you used last?”

Mirna’s attention was fixated on the “Mero Mero Beam”. I was just going to shrug it off, but since this was an application of great magic, it would not be strange for Mirna to show interest.

“Surely you don’t think of using such magic to corrupt women, do you?”

Was she suspecting that I would use this hypnosis-like magic to prey on women? It was a reasonable doubt.

Still, I had an explanation.

“What Mirna-nim is worried about will not happen. This magic has a fatal flaw.”

“A fatal flaw?”

“The condition for the magic to take effect is very simple. Letshow you.”
