Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure



"Mark of God?" I couldn't help repeating before asking, "What's that?"

Hearing my voice, the priest was pulled out of his daze and finally remembered where he was.

He revealed an awkward look when he saw that we were all looking at him, but then he explained, "The mark on your hand is named the Mark of God. It is a special mark that only gods give to their chosen ones."

Then without giving me a chance to ask another question, he started pushing us out of his office as he said, "I must report this to headquarters. I'm sorry that I don't have more time to entertain you, I'll come and talk to you another day."

Before any of us could say anything, we were pushed out and the door was slammed behind us.

All we could do was look at each other with shocked and confused looks on our faces.

There were plenty of questions that we wanted to ask the priest, but he just didn't give us that chance…

So with no other choice, we started heading back to the manor.

As we headed back, there was only silence that hung in the air as none of us knew what to say. However, it was clear from the looks on our faces that all of us had many different emotions that we were feeling.

When we came back to the manor, there was still silence that followed until we were sitting down in Baroness Rose's room.

As we sat there, there was an awkward silence that filled the air until Baroness Rose said, "I…"

Before she could finish, I suddenly stood up and kowtowed in front of her.

Both Baroness Rose and Cecilia were caught off guard before Baroness Rose quickly came forward to try and help me up, but I wouldn't stand up even as she pulled on me.

Baroness Rose looked at me with a worried look as she asked, "What are you doing? What's wrong?"

I didn't say anything right away and hesitated for a while. Then I took a deep breath and said, "I need to apologize for something."

Hearing the serious tone in my voice, Baroness Rose was even more taken aback.

But after looking at me for a bit, she gave a nod and sat there waiting for me to say what I had to say.

I hesitated for a long while again since I didn't know how to start, but eventually I took a deep breath and said, "I didn't take the locket for the reason that you think I did."

Baroness Rose was once again surprised, but she held it back and waited for me to explain.

I continued on to tell her about what happened when I found the locket and what feelings I had felt when I found it. Finally, I ended by telling her just why I had taken the locket.

"I didn't take it because I felt the curse from it, I didn't even know about the curse. The only reason I took it was simply because of jealousy…I wanted you for myself and that was why I didn't feel like he deserved to have this."

After I finished saying all of this, I lowered my head and waited for her reaction.

But to my surprise, she didn't do a single thing.

I thought that she would be disappointed or she would be angry, but she didn't reveal any expressions at all. She just sat there looking at me with a calm look on her face, as if she didn't even hear what I had just said.

I couldn't help feeling more and more anxious the longer she stayed silent. I finally couldn't take it anymore and asked, "What are you thinking?"

To my surprise, Baroness Rose suddenly revealed a faint smile as she said, "I'm thinking that it's quite cute how you were jealous."

Once again, I couldn't help being surprised.

I just looked at her with a strange look as I asked, "Is that it? Is that all that you're feeling?"

Baroness Rose said with a nod, "That's right, what else would I be feeling?"

I revealed an awkward look on my face when I heard this. After a moment of silence, I said, "Well…this was an important memento from your ex husband, so aren't you angry that I destroyed it? Also, don't you feel betrayed since you thought that I destroyed it because I did it to dispel the curse when in reality I just did it for my own ego?"

Baroness Rose shook her head before saying with a bitter laugh, "Important memento? That man never loved me and you should know that best since you remember what you were bought for, right?"

I couldn't help jolting when I heard this.

That was right, I was bought as a sex slave to pleasure her…

I just never thought that she would bring it up so bluntly…

It should have hurt her much more than it hurt me.

Seeing the look on my face, she shook her head and said, "You don't need to worry about me. My feelings for that man have long died, so you don't need to worry about that."

A strange look appeared on my face as I looked at her before saying, "Then why did you smile?"

That was the one thing that confused me the most.

Baroness Rose revealed the same smile again as she said, "Well, now I know something very important."

"What's that?" I asked in a confused voice.

"That you love me." Baroness Rose looked at me with that same smile on her face.

When she said it like this, I couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed, so I looked away from her gaze.

Baroness Rose didn't stop as she continued, "I don't want to be bound my entire life to what that man was, so I've decided to live my life as I wish. That includes living for new loves that I find."

She stood up and came over to me, taking me in her arms as she said, "That includes my new life with you."

She brought her hands to my head and turned it so that I was looking at her before saying, "I love you too."

My chin dropped when I heard this, but seeing the genuinely happy look in her eyes…I knew what I had to do.

So I brought my head forward and placed a kiss right on her lips.

We just stayed like that for a few seconds before finally separating from each other, but now there were blushes on both of our cheeks.

Even though we had done things that were much more intimate than this with our bodies, confessing our love for each other really was something that was new…It was a very warm and fuzzy feeling that couldn't be replaced.

To the side, Cecilia was looking at the two of them with a strange look.

She felt the same feeling as before whenever she saw the two of them getting intimate, but this time…it was a bit different.

This time, this feeling wasn't just aimed towards Zwein…this time, this feeling was aimed at the both of them.

It was almost like feeling like she had been left out.
