The audience also gave me fervent stares, and I could feel Marias wide eyes looking at me diligently.
It looks like I have no choice
I..
I
With my eyes closed, I blurted out something I had been hiding for so long.
I have actually felt attracted to you ever since we first met at the Ainzlark Exams.
Your cute face and aloof expression I like them a lot!!!
I had to choose Share.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I heard the audience give a loud cooing sound as they smiled in exhilaration.
Stupid bastards.
Why would they be happy about hearing another persons secrets.
I thought in embarrassment, glancing in Marias direction.
Her face was flushed with so much pink that I worried for her.
Her eyes looked watery, and she looked away the moment our gazes met.
Ah, I forgot! We arent supposed to communicate with each other outside the game.
It seemed what I said was too much for her to bear.
Damn it what have I done?
Now that I had said this, there was definitely no way I could tell Maria I was Lewis Griffith.
If I did, she would be so disgusted at me.
I mean, who wouldnt be?
An old man having feelings for a young girl? For real?!
But, I cant help my body
The only advantage my answer provided was that it set the pace for a topic of romance.
Now that the mood was established, Marias next question would definitely fall under that category.
Now that its my turn, I guess its time to push it
Whats the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you? I asked with a smile.
Now these are the questions youre supposed to be asking! I thought to myself with a smile.
Marias face turned even redder, making me realize I made a mistake.
I-Ill choose Share Maria murmured.
Eh? Is it that embarrassing?
Somehow I grew more interested in what she was hiding.
I actually had slight feelings for Stefan when we were kids
HOLYYYYYYY SHIIIIIIIT!!! The congregation burst out in response.
A-ah My jaw nearly dropped in surprise, but I made sure to pull myself together.
I never expected this bombshell.
Is that why Stefan was against the marriage? Was the feeling mutual? Just how old.was she when
My mind was swirling in thoughts, and before I knew it, it was Marias turn to ask.
H-How do you know so much about Magic?
What? The same question again?
I thought she was going to ask something about romance.
Why did she come back to a question I obviously didnt want to answer?
Pope, isnt that?
Its not against the rules to re-ask a question that hasnt been answered yet.
Ah, what?! Things were getting awry, for real.
Could it be that she already suspected something?
If so, then how much does she know?
