“Ugh..Lady Kai, don’t you think we should visit Duke Arthur and apologize...?”
I quietly shook my head, “Check.”
And yes, we are playing chess again.
Because last time when I went to check if there’s until sunset, I totally forgot to buy a new crystal gear. I guess blood was truly rushing to my head...
“To begin with, woman. He needs a good beating for the fact that he raised such a disgraceful grandchild!”
The woman made her move, “Ehh...what did he do, actually?”
“..........”
Oh...right. I didn’t tell her, did I?
C-can it be that the story I told the other day with alligator tears was taken as a fabricated story...?
I mean, I know it was all lies...but there was some truth mixed in there somewhere!
“...Checkmate!”
“Ahh...!”
The woman dropped her shoulder in guilt.
“Sigh. I can’t even leave the house after what happened, remember?”
The woman shook her head in dejection, as she started to reset the board on her own.
Earlier, I gave her a handicap with the reward for myself being, her resetting the board on her own.
...What? I should always even the odds against a weaker player? Well, she was the one who proposed it.
“...Ugh...”
These groans...
“Listen here, woman. No need to feel any guilt, alright? The guy must have hurt someone before! Look, isn’t he even called a Pedo-monster?”
The woman replied without even looking at me, “But isn’t that what you came up to call him...?”
T-this is...
...W-was I really that evil? A-am I that frightening when I’m angry?
...Let us all hope she won’t meet a green mutant, whom she won’t like when he’s angry.
“B-but! He was about to assault me!”
She finished resetting the board, and looked me into the eyes--By the way, she had some tears in the corner of her eyes-- and said, “That’s what happen when you push people over the edge!”
“...You’re hopeless, Woman. How the hell are you still in the army?”
“You’re the hopeless one! To preserve the peace of the empire, of course!”
I chuckled, “So you’re just a justice fanatic...good, good, people like you are the very first to be corrupted by evil.”
The woman went silent, not intending to continue the conversation as she moved her first piece.
“Ugh...”
......And she groans yet again!
“Listen here, woman. If you want to...we can go visit him right now.”
“Eh? ...That’s no good, Lady Kai! You’re in house arrest!!”
But weren’t you the one who suggested that we go apologize in the first place?!
“That might be the case, woman, but aren’t we going to do the right thing? Apologizing?”
She looked conflicted for a moment, before saying. “We’re only going...to apologize! Then quickly return, okay?”
I-it’s not like I’m totally going outside to buy a new crystal gear or anything, okay?! Hmph!!
Although, I am still pissed at myself a bit for referring to myself as a ‘Woman’ the other day. I totally felt like admitting defeat.
Alright, let us not get angry anytime soon.
I quickly moved my own pawn, and asked, “So how are we going to leave?”
“Through the front door?”
Yeah, and have all the servants see me leave with you?
I shake my head in denial, “We can’t do that. In order to lure out Pedo-mo--Old man Arthur, I had to trick most of the servants. I bet they are dying for a chance in passive vengeance.”
Oops, my tongue slipped there.
“Then how do you suggest that we leave...?”
I shake my head in disapproval over her attitude, “Who do you think I am? I am the protector of the night! The savior of video game lives, and the invisible hero! How do you think I sneaked out of my room in the middle of the night, every once in a while to buy games?”
Yeah, it looks like she doesn’t buy it with that dubious glare I’m receiving.
“Look, Angel,” I made sure to say her name, to emphasize my point, “I actually got my hands on a crystal artifact!”
This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.
For those who don’t know, a Crystal Artifact is an aura-less crystal. Well, sort of.
It’s not that the aura has been sucked dry by a human, but rather that the aura is so thick, so pure, so high, that humans simply cannot sense or absorb it!
I have absolutely no idea who forges these epic crystals, nor do I know from which grade of monster they came from.
And the girl looks even more dubious of myself.
“You see, I have this piece of crystal cloth--a cloth embedded with thin, invisible to the eyes crystals--that can turn you invisible!”
She took a deep, cold breath before uttering, “You are a bad liar!”
I simply smiled, stood up, and walked to the closet.
I opened the closet and took out a panty and returned back to my seat.
“You see, putting this on your head will make you transparent!”
She stared at me in disbelief, truly not able to comprehend what I just uttered.
By the way, although I said ‘I don’t know any magic’ before, I actually do!
Just one useless spell.
Just one, useless...spell.
How did I learn it? Well, if I said from a game...would you believe me?
So anyhow, it’s an invisibility spell!
How it works? Well, if you stay put, it’ll make you turn invisible. But, if you start walking...you’ll be noticed by anyone who’s actively paying attention. That’s probably one of the main reasons why I only shop late at night...I don’t want anyone to look at me.
As I uttered the spells words in a tone that she couldn’t hear, I wore the panties over my head.
And viola, I turned invisible!
Of course, I made sure not to move.
After I made sure that her jaw has been dropped, I took off the panties and disable the spell simultaneously.
“When you’re invisible, you’ll also be able to see anything that’s...well, invisible with you. So, if you, for example, are invisible--you’ll be able to see anyone who’s invisible as well. That also means that you’ll be able to see your own body while being invisible.”
Of course, all the above is bull. Why? Because I don’t want her to suspect seeing her own body while wearing the panty above her head!
She quickly took the panty from my hand, and wore it on her head.
It’ll looked like a certain super hero...
“Woah, I never saw anyone turning invisible right in front of me before!”
I yelled in excitement. But truly, I was holding back laughter as hard as I could! Since, after all, she just looks like an idiot who’s wearing a panty like a mask
Let this be payback. I, who wears dresses, and you, who wears panties for a mask!
And thus, me and Panties-Kamen's saga continues. Will we apologize to the Pedo-monster, or will I betray Panties-Kamen and escape to buy a crystal gear?
----------------------------------------
Author note: Two months ago, I wrote chapter six of this fiction. Of course, after that, I dropped it. At first, I wrote the first chapter without thinking of either a title, or a story line. I then set a title to be as ridiculous as ever, and finally wrote the finale of chapter one. I then, well, posted it on both royalroad and japtem! Royalroad was amazing, 27 followers the very following day. I continued it, and decided to go over to the serious road. Of course, I failed miserably. Two months later, I deleted the serious, failure chapters, back-tracked and decided to follow the comedy, not-brain-cells-numbing/killing road. Now look at me, I’m in chapter 12!
And for those who followed the journey from the start, thank you very much for reading! And for those who followed after I stopped writing, thank you for your patience! And for those who are just reading, thank you for giving this rather humble fiction of about a little more than three stars and a half a go! Please follow--I always wanted to do this once--Favorite and rate me! This is Light, and I’m out~ *Youtube outro in text, simply brilliant, no?*
P.S: I might write a chapter today or tomorrow. No, i’m not dropping it again. *The speech sounds like I'm dropping it, no? I'm answering a question before it's asked!*
P.P.S: Woah, sorry if my speech sounded cliche XD also, sorry if it seemed like the author note is longer than the chapter itself~
