People would blank out whenever they were stressed.

It was due to the cluttered brain, just like a faulty computer. When such a degree became severe, it would be expressed with ‘my head has turned white.’

I was well aware that it was by no means just an exaggeration.

Because my head was now white!

━Excuse me, dear Guests? A high-status woman is looking for you below. I think you should come down and see her.

Knock, Knock, Knock.

Someone knocked on the door where we were staying. It was probably the innkeeper. Thinking so, I hurriedly got up.

Ssuuuk.

At the same time, my long cocƙ was removed from Elga’s ƿussy, causing various Iewd fluids to leak out.

“Ugh…, uh, what’s going on?”

It seemed that Elga was also perplexed.

Elga and I rushed to get dressed. However, since my shirt had been torn by Elga earlier, I had to put the robe over my bare skin.

It was a little rough, but that was not the important thing right now!

“Ugh, my waist….”

Elga trembled like a newborn deer and slowly adjusted her dress.

It appeared that she was not able to move easily, so I put on the dress for her and tightened the corset at the back.

Elga, now fully dressed, asked the person outside.

“Who is looking for me? Are you sure you got the right person?”

━Yes. Aside from my Lady, our inn currently has no other pretty blonde woman in a red dress.

“If it’s a pretty blonde woman, then you’re right to look for me!”

━Would you please go downstairs? The lady seems very angry….

Tension, bewilderment and anxiety could be heard from the innkeeper’s voice.

Based on the sense of urgency, should I say that it sounded like he didn’t want to be swept up in something bad?

“Huuu-.”

I took a few breaths to cool my head, which had been overheated by the previous excitement.

I needed, to think calmly.

Be, sober…

First of all, let’s point out why I was so anxious.

The reason was because of ‘The Lady’ that appeared right below.

I thought maybe it was Aira.

It was difficult to imagine what would happen if the current situation was discovered by Queen Aira, who had come all the way here.

That thought alone made me drastically aged and grew white hairs…

However, if you thought about it, didn’t Aira say that she was going to read books in her room all day today? So, what was the probability that Aira suddenly changed her schedule?

But, if it was not Aira, then who was the lady seeking us?

There were many possibilities. Yet, in the end, the only answer was to go down and figure out the problem.

「You have calmly judged the situation! You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.

All job experience +5」

Just as the worries that had been floating around began to subside, several words flashed in front of my eyes.

「You have successfully defiled the purity of a noble!

Job: Casanova 1+ Level

Casanova Lv. 5 → Lv. 6

You are able to practice some more lewd things!」

「You showed great skill in breaking the will of your opponent!

Job: Tutor 1+ Level

Tutor Lv. 3 → Lv. 4

Slightly increase the chance of breaking through the opponent’s mental defense!」

Maybe it was because of the recent love affair, but my level had risen a lot.

I didn’t know whether everyone could ‘climb the ladder’ this well or I was just receiving some kind of bonus due to my Angmar’s blood.

Anyway, the important thing right now was to go down and assess the situation.

If Aira was the one who visited, it would be best to quickly figure out where and how far she knew, before making a plan.

“Elga-nim, relax here for a while. I’ll go down first and see the situation.”

“Are you telling me to hide behind you? Why should I do that? I don’t know who it is, but if she dares call me… Eut.”

Ttogak-.

Elga took a step and flinched. At the same time, I could see something transparent dripping down her slender ankle before dropping onto the floor.

It was probably not normal…

Elga then said while stroking her lower belly.

“Did Aira come? If Aira is here, you should keep what you just did with me a secret. No, keep it a secret from everyone, even if it’s not Aira, okay?”

“A secret?”

“Yes! It’s not yet the time to show your claws to the world, alright? Then, you go down first…”

I opened the door and descended to the tavern’s first floor along with the serious-looking innkeeper.

The image of bustling tavern patrons with black-robed people in the center greeted me.

“Hurry up. Bring that Lioness girl before me.”

Wait, what?

This was… surprising.

The person leading the black-robed figures was a woman I could never have imagined.

She wore a chestnut robe and had hanging silver hair.

Under her robe were a blouse and a tie, bulging to the shape of her chest. She also had a short skirt and stockings.

A uniform? Maybe, a school uniform? It must be the school uniform of the Ark Academy!

This was definitely an Ark student!

… But, what did an Ark student have to do with Elga?

I quickly scanned the woman’s face with my Fairy Eyes.

Although she looked as young as a high school student, her red eyes were so intense that I felt chills. It was like facing a cold-blooded beast!

After all, red eyes were synonymous with the most dangerous bunch….

Overall, she was a great beauty with a noble air, but I didn’t know her. Rather, I felt relieved that she wasn’t Aira.

“Ah.”

It was then that I discovered the reptile-shaped brooches adorning the shoulders of everyone in the group. Maybe this situation wasn’t so fortunate after all.

Because what I saw was a silver dragon brooch.

And there was only one power in this world that used dragons as heraldry…

It was the Draco Family.

Among the four great families, theirs was comparable to the likes of Angmar along with Tarantera, Lioness and Belhawk. The Young Lady of the Draco family was here.

Along with Tarantera, Lioness and Belhawk, the Draco’s was considered one of the great houses which were the pillars of the Angmar Kingdom. And, this girl was a Draco…

Chwaaaak.

The Young Lady of the Draco Family then said, while pointing with a black fan.

“Come on, bring me that rude Lioness!”

It was a calm and still voice, yet filled with anger. Then, behind me, someone passed through the crowd, shaking the floor.

It was Elga…
