(EP-143.1) #3
143 – Pincer #3
The words that came out of Elga’s mouth immediately woke me up from my drowsiness.
“What did you just say?” fгeewebnovёl.com
“Say what?”
Elga naturally asked back.
“What did I say?”
“Didn’t Elga-nim just say that you’ll help me?”
If my ears didn’t deceive me, Elga had definitely mentioned something about helping me in conquering Mirna.
I was genuinely taken aback by it. I never thought I would hear such words from Elga.
My sleepiness is flying to the stratosphere right now.
“Is that true?”
“Why? Didn’t you say things were going well with Mirna? I don’t think you need my help then, if things are going smoothly.”
“That’s.. right.”
It’s funny how I declared to Elga that ‘I will make a harem’ but the truth is that I only have minimal progress.
I could feel my pride as a man crumbling.
How would Elga look at me if she knew?
But if I set aside my pride, maybe I could receive help from Elga. I don’t know what kind of help it would be, but it might be better than agonizing over it alone.
So now, I’m stuck in a situation where I wanted to ask for her help, but at the same, my pride couldn’t take it.
In other words, should I suck it up and say, “Actually, I haven’t progressed further with Mirna-nim since that day.”
Elga yawned and said.
“I’m sure you’ll do well on your own. Just pretend you didn’t hear anything.”
Was I taking too long?
The ship is starting to sail, but I’ve yet to board.
In that moment, various concerns flooded my mind.
If I stubbornly cling to my pride and reject Elga’s extended help, it’s certain that it will take more time to conquer Mirna, and the repercussions of that prolonged time could snowball and overwhelm me.
In this situation where my hair is getting redder by the day, and many external factors are at ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) play such as the Ars Nova and the main character’s party—.
I realized that being stubborn here could lead to disastrous consequences. With that thought in mind, I firmly closed my eyes.
Calmly contemplating the situation, I’ve concluded that it’s the wisest to take Elga’s help offer.
「You have calmly judged the situation!
You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.
All job experience +5」
Alright, it’s decided.
“Heueup.”
After taking a few breaths, I slowly opened my lips to Elgar.
“Um, Elga-nim.”
“Why?”
Elga continued absentmindedly caressing my stomach as if she knew nothing. Then, I finally pulled the trigger.
“Actually, like what Elga-nim said, things aren’t going well with Mirna-nim.”
“What, so I was right! You bastard, you want to die? Hey! Why are you lying!”
Kwok.
