Chapter 651 Curious girls



Chapter 651 Curious girls

[OP: ]

Their classes all ended and though Lucifer had been a little lost through the first few classes, as the others noticed, he had returned back to his old self in a little while.

He was fine now as well, and now that they all had finished with their classes, they were resting a little and after this little rest in their usual place in the garden, they would return to their housemates and continue with the practices and the training for the alchemy exam.

They were chatting right now as usual and, the atmosphere was a lot better than what it was at their lunch earlier.

And, though no one was bringing up the topic regarding what had happened to Lucifer, they knew he was fine now so, they weren't worried like earlier either.

"Hahaha~! Uriel! Clover really is that amazing? Even Lio is afraid of her~? Don't joke~ like that~." Titania patted Uriel's back as she said that while laughing and her familiar, the giant holy beast of the fairy kingdom, the special wolf, laughed alongside her.

"See~? Even Mike is laughing~. Hehe~."

"But I am telling the truth though~! Really! Ask Quin! She was there as well~! Clover is a direct attendant of the spirit queen or something like that so she has more authority than Lio and the other superior rank spirits so they all are afraid of her.

They either run away at the mention of her name or behave as obediently as a docile puppy does before the one that feeds them!"

"Yesss! Uriel is telling the truth! They were all afraid of her~! Even my Pompom is still afraid of Clover~. Hehe, he acts cute when he is like that."

They were all chatting like usual, the girls were having their evening tea together while the boys… were doing something unique in a different corner today.

"Hehe, alright! Alright! I will believe you~! But that aside~. What are all the boys doing~? Does anyone have any idea what they might be whispering about to each other while putting up so many protective barriers?"

"It looks like they are talking about some top-secret thing lol. Even my darling seems pretty into whatever is going on in there. They all sure seem to be talking about some state-level confidential matter hehe."

The way they had put powerful barriers all around them had a little different story but, right now, the girls were getting all curious about whatever was going on in that place.

At least, Uriel, Titania, Lizzy, Alquea, Rexie, and Carla had a little interest in whatever was going on in there.

"Luna? Do have any idea what they all might be talking about?"

Titania asked Luna but, she just shook her head and continued clearing the sharp teeth of her shark familiar with a large ice brush artifact. 

She didn't know how but this familiar fish of hers always had bad teeth after returning from its evening walk of the garden.

"Hmmm… then Bell? Do you know anything? Can you try sending your familiar there?"

"Hmmm? No. I tried but He didn't want to go there. He says that there is something that he feels will eat him alive. 

Looks like they have put quite some powerful barriers to prevent anyone from interfering with their conversation."

"Ughhhhh! Now this makes me even more curious! Damn those bastards! And it all started because of Prince Alpheus right?! What could he be talking about with all of them?"

The boys inside those bunch of powerful barriers included Lucifer, Alf, Chry, Prince Alpheus, Captain Alpha, Janet's poet lover, Hide, and for some reason, Prince Claudius and his cat familiar as well. 

It was a unique gathering that was happening for the first time and it was initiated by Prince Alpheus, the others just joined it one by one or were invited by the others for certain reasons.

"I am curious, as well Uriel… how many of you think it is something related to a girl?"

Lizzy proposed and at her question, stars appeared in the eyes of all the girls present in this place.

"A girl?! Like, you mean there is someone that Prince Alpheus likes and he wants advice from all the boys?!" Uriel shouted and right after her, Araxie spoke up in her usual tone.

"No fucking way… I understand a few but what are the others with no experience with dating or whatever are even doing in that place with all of them?! They are practically a magnet that attracts but are polar sides that deflect when things actually start!" 

She used more curses than Carla sometimes but, they all liked her even more because of this fact.

She was like that older gangster girl in the middle of a bunch of good girls… or at least something similar.

"H-hen?! What are you guys talking about? That's so inappropriate!"

And then there was Nebula. Someone who was always calm and composed but whenever it came to dating or anything even remotely close to that topic, there was always a blush present on her pretty face that made her prettier.

Vice President Cradle loved seeing this reaction of hers and teased her secretly at every chance she got.

"Alright girls. Shut up… Zoe. I bet you know something. Tell us."

But, then there was Carla, someone that was always calm and composed every time it came to dating and relationships. 

She herself had no experience with any of the dating stuff itself but, only her close ones knew this fact, that she was someone who was obsessed with romance novels. Especially the ones with inappropriate content.

She was an expert when it came to the theories of romantics or anything related to interpersonal relationships.

And, at the topic that was brought up right now, her special secret instincts had kicked in.

"Hmm? Right! Zoe must know something! She knows everything that is going on somehow!"

She knew if something was going on and it involved Eon and Rein did not know about it, there was only one person that would know of that thing that was going on with him and others connected to him.

"Ohhh! Right! Zoe! Tell us! Quick!"

And, Titania was overly eager to know about the relationships that were going on in this academy. 

She actually had a unique interest in love as a subject since one of the people she looked up to the most was an expert in the field of love, attraction, and sensual desires.

"Ummm…"

So, now, all eyes were on Zoe. The only person who allegedly knew of the affairs that were happening inside those walls of barriers at the moment.

"You people know I can't tell even if I knew something right?"

"She knows! She definitely knows something!"

"Right! She didn't deny it outright! She definitely knows something!"

"Girls! Grab her! Surround her! She might just run away now that we know! Quick!"

"Oy wait wait! There's no need to do that!"

The girls didn't listen to her even though she said that and surrounded her from all sides. The familiars that were present at the moment in this place all also became the second wall that surrounded her from all sides.

Even Luna and her shark that were in the middle of brushing were prepared for whatever she might do and had gotten behind her, in a place that was the best escape route.

"I said there is no need… haaa… you guys are unbelievable."

Zoe sighed, but, there was a glint in her eyes.

She found this scenario fun and there was no need for her to keep this secret a secret, but, there was also no reason for her to tell these curious girls about something personal of someone else that she 'technically' should not know about.

"Girls, you know I can't tell…"

There was no reason for her to tell these girls, yet. 

If they were able to persuade her, even they knew the secret the boys were trying to keep from them would be revealed in an instant.

"Name your price Zoe." Carla offered first but, it only made Zoe smile with her usual joyous smile.

"Sister Carla~. You know well that these things don't work like that. If I say no then it's a no~."

"I can get you something really valuable Zoe. Something really really really valuable." 

And after Carla, Uriel looked right into her eyes and offered this mysterious thing. 

She didn't say what this valuable thing was, but, while looking into her eyes, Uriel told her what this secret thing was through Celes' connection that was still available to them.

"Ohhh! Wait… hmmm… it's tempting. Very tempting. But no. I can get those if I try on my own so no. And besides, as I said, you can't just bribe me! I can't tell you all!"

"You are being too much Zoe!"

Rein offered her something very precious and valuable, something that was only valuable to the two of them and something that only Rein had at the moment, and, having this special thing was a big deal for Zoe.

But, still, it wasn't something she couldn't get on her own.

She just didn't want it at the moment so her very very very special offer meant nothing to her.

"Alright, Zoe. What will it take to convince you?" 

After Rein's failed offer, Carla looked right into her eyes once again, and, this time, Zoe looked back with a smirk on her face.

"A little something? From all of you, hehe. But if any of you says no, I won't tell you!"

It was a demand that wasn't so simple. 

She was asking something from all of them present here, and, they all had to agree to this thing or else they couldn't know this whatever secret they were hiding, this whatever secret that they would know anyway after their conversation was over.

But, since they all were desperate at this point, they all looked at each other, and, after a little mental conversation and unanimous agreement, they nodded at once.

"Tell us first and we will decide after hearing what you want Zoe."

They knew Zoe well by this point. At least, more than enough to know she was far smarter, stronger, and more amazing than they could ever fathom.

They knew some was special and there were many things special about her, so, whatever demand she was asking for, was certainly going to be nothing simple.

"Hehe, it's very simple~."

She told the girls about her wish that she had been wanting to fulfill for a while now, a wish she couldn't fulfill while they were all on this island, a wish that could only be fulfilled in their home in the capital city.

"So? What do you all say? It will be fun and I know for a fact she will loooooooove it."

They were all speechless after hearing her request, which was more of a precious invitation than anything else.

People would wage wars for this specific invitation and they were getting it just for agreeing to accept it?

They all would be fools if they declined it… and though Carla didn't like the specifics, she could endure that much for her lovely sisters.

"Alright then. I don't see anyone disagreeing which means everyone is a yes! Yeiiiiiiiii~. It will be fun~."

They all had agreed.

"Alright, now. Tell us."

"Yes!"

So, it was time for her to fulfill her side of the deal.

"It is about a girl that Prince Alpheus wants to befriend."

"Ohhhhhh!"

"I knew it!"

"See! I am always right!"

"But this girl… it's Ezra."

"…oh?"

"Holy shit… that's why all these barriers."

"It explains everything…"

"That bastard is asking for something impossible! Even those love experts can't help him!"

They all knew just after hearing this one name, that what the useless prince was asking for… was truly impossible from whatever angle they saw it.
