Chapter 202: Well-Behaved Cats Like the Kitchen Stove! (7)
“Cariote, have you found out anything about Nebula?” I had made an agreement with Cariote during the lull before the banquet began.The plan was to investigate Nebula, the owner of ‘Steg Maia’.Cariote was supposed to gather information on Demiurge Nebula in the women’s lounge. However, she just blushed and mumbled to herself, seemingly overwhelmed by the unfamiliar setting.
Bing-geul— Bing-geul—We twirled on the marble floor, hand in hand, blending in with the other couples in the banquet hall. We must look like an ordinary pair, right?Taking advantage of the scattered attention of the party, I whispered softly into Cariote’s ear.
“It’s fine if you didn’t find much. I’ve gathered some crucial information that might help.”
I had managed to collect various details about Nebula in the men’s lounge.
Demiurge Nebula.Also known as the Duke.Apparently, she’s a woman who rules imperiously while maintaining an aloof and haughty demeanor. A highly capable being whose hobby is collecting husbands.She’s already amassed 24 husbands and plans to acquire her 25th at today’s banquet.
“She’s exactly the type I can’t stand.”
I’ve never been fond of older women.I had no interest in Nebula, as she was so much older than me that it was impossible to guess her age. And collecting husbands?According to my conservative views on fidelity, women should only have eyes for one man. It’s absurd for women to be with multiple men.
Now someone might ask.
─Judas, you have three wives, so why should a woman only have one man? Isn’t that unfair?
