Chapter 292: Did She… Kiss Her?
“Only I would pick you up.”
“Be grateful~” Was Adele’s ability to manipulate others ingrained in her bones...? It felt unusually practiced. And Kaiser didn’t seem to realize this, still lost in her own world. Or perhaps she did realize, but still wanted to be the one “picked up.”
“...I will.” She said in a low voice.
“Pfft, you’re so serious. But being serious is good.” After receiving a satisfactory answer, Adele stood up from Kaiser’s lap and turned to leave, still chattering.
“I’m not a very serious person.”
“Doing things seventy percent is already great~”
“I didn’t even do anything today, but I still worked hard!”
“But you’re not allowed to learn from me!”
“...Okay.” Although she vaguely felt something was wrong, Kaiser still obediently responded.
She wasn’t as depressed now, all thanks to Adele. Although Adele’s methods were a bit... unscrupulous. Kissing and touching right from the start, wanting to make her hers. Well... Kaiser just happened to fall for it. She needed something tangible to fight against the emptiness, a belief. And the clearest one was Adele’s lips, which had momentarily moved her heart in the Secret Realm. In the past, she could strive for the belief of defeating Dorothy, making it her life’s ultimate goal. Then now, she could strive for Adele’s kiss... to gain more of her affection.
