Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

Chapter 193 193 Friends and guardian

[El's POV: ]

He was asking him to become his friend and we were talking about THE Morexis here. The bastard who shouldn't have a single friend by this time, aside from Cathy of course.

'But Cathy is more of his childhood acquaintance and something more than a friend.'

He had no friends and this was going to stay this way for a very long time not only because of his insecurities but also because of the way he saw the concept of a 'friend'.

'For this bastard, a friend was something far more than a blood-related family member, or, the closest thing he could ever have in his life.'

His first friend would have been Cathy in normal circumstances or AJ depending on the situation but now that he was asking the two of us for something that we did not want, things were complicated.

[ "He's serious El." ]

[ "He has that look?" ]

[ "Yes… he has 'that' look in his eyes. The dead serious one." ]

He was seriously asking us to be his friend and we would have accepted it without much thinking if it was anyone else but, this bastard was a different case.

'If we accept his friendship he will try his best to get involved with every single one of our affairs in the name of being our 'friend' and even if it is annoying for us, I knew he would just continue being by our side till the end.'

He was the worst kind of trouble magnet and, to make matters worse, there were already things ahead of him that we didn't want to get involved in at all.

He was a character that needed to be alone for his growth and being with us would only ruin him, and the things we are going to do might even destroy his political standing as well as pose a great threat to his life.

He wasn't fit for the things we were going to do during our time in this academy even though he was the crown prince of the most powerful country on this continent.

[ "And if not a friend, a subordinate? That will be the last thing I want!" ]

[ "Feeling's mutual darling." ]

Having him as a subordinate from the start will also ruin many things we had in mind for him.

'Things would be different if he just wanted us as a hired help but, if we are talking about 'him' becoming 'our' subordinate and not the other way around, he was bluntly asking for permission to let him be a part of our lives.

He was a difficult one and since we knew the possibilities of having him as our subordinate, having a 'distorter of possibilities' around us as a subordinate, would only help in ruining our perfectly executed plans.

'Not only was he a disaster magnet like Ras, he also attracted the Apocalypse level disasters instead of the small ones like he does.'

And since he was clearly aiming for the throne and wasn't the only one doing so, having him as our subordinate would attract the attention of all the other competitors of the throne.

'Accepting him as either subordinate or a friend was not an option, that's why we were aiming for a contractual relationship from the start with him. But, now that he had clearly spoken about his request… things were difficult.'

[ "Should I deal with it?" ]

Lucy was taken aback by the request as well since even he had not thought he would ask for something like this, but I knew if he wanted, he could deal with this unexpected situation as well.

[ "Do it. But don't take too much. Make it so that he thinks we want to keep our distance from him and establish a good enough relationship even if it isn't like the one we had thought at first.

If we can't have just a contractual relationship, then at least make him think that we have our own problems with having too deep relationships.

And please, whatever you do, don't ruin my plans.

If he thinks for even a second that it is because of Cathy, you are dead.

Push him towards liking her if you can but not away!" ]

[ "Yes ma'am…" ]

If he makes a mistake here, he is a dead meat.

'I want special babies that call me aunt! And without the two of them, it will be near impossible!'

He had to convince him, and while he does that, I will do my best to get as close to this milky cow as possible.

"Cathy?"

"A-ahh. Yes. I blanked out for a moment, I apologize."

"No worries. Have you decided on what you want from us? From me?"

The two of us were the only ones here and even the familiar cuties were outside right now.

From what I can, the three of our helpers, Eva, Sir Fang, and Alquea must have been surprised by the sudden appearance of the walls that from the outside must look like a black cubic box or something similar, but, since they already knew the reason behind their presence here today, they must have guessed that we were behind the appearance of these boxes.

'From how much I know of them, Alquea must have started analyzing the shadow energy and the uniqueness of the walls and Sir Fang must have started talking with the ones that created it, with my useless Cary and My amazing Anna.'

Eva must have realized we were doing this and since Nes knew there was nothing to worry about here, she must be talking with my first summons Friday, now that she had the chance.

'She had found him very amusing and even Silver and Ethan found him surprisingly unique when they all first saw him, so, she must be talking with him in a side.'

I just hope that dumb baby doesn't cause much trouble and takes care of things like I had taught him in the meantime.

Well, Anna was there so I didn't need to worry about them.

She was capable and dependable.

"Lady Uriel…"

"Just El is fine, Cathy." I smiled at her warmly and though she had pronounced my name wrong, it wasn't her mistake.

'The name Auriel is a little tricky so it's easy to mispronounce but, it isThat dumb bastard's fault for making things like this. Fucker is useless and dumb.'

She was a cute one, her long elvan ears were red when she looked at my smile, she was wearing quite a pretty outfit so her boobies looked pretty attractive as well, but they were staring at me, and I was trying my best to not stare back at them or it would be awkward for both of us.

We weren't that close yet.

"Then miss El…"

"I said just El. Why are you so nervous? Just relax, hehe~."

She was cute when she was nervous though. It was pretty cute in itself… but my Nes is cuter.

"El…"

She looked up at me, in my eyes, her pretty face filled with confidence and a little bit of uncertainty.

"You already seem to know all that I wanted to tell you so, I will ask directly…"

She took a deep breath and when she did that, her chest went up, and when she released her breath, her hanging melons almost touched the table before us even though the chairs were pretty high...

She really had unusually large breasts for someone who would be called the representative of heavens or the <Saintess of salvation>.

'Cute little cow, kek.'

The look of confidence in her eyes as well as that little light of faith were quite something though.

"Would you please become my guardian?"

And, her request, was thankfully something within our predictions-

"You can ask for anything and I will do my best to fulfill your request if you accept me.

Ah, I am only asking you to be my guardian for the time we are in the academy. I will become capable enough to take care of myself by the time we graduate-"

"It would be our pleasure!"

"H-hmmm? What-"

"It would be our pleasure to be your guardian!"

A guardian was a little more than someone bound by a contractual relationship and something less than a relationship where individuals are too close to each other, like friendship by Rex's definition.

Not only was it a middle ground that was perfect for what we wanted from her, what she was offering in return, the opportunity to have anything we wanted from her, was something I couldn't possibly let go of.

[ "Lucy! She asked me to become her guardian and offered to give us anything we wanted in return!" ]

[ "Accept it! accept it immediately! That's the perfectest perfect offer we could have gotten! Accept it damnit!" ]

[ "I already did lol! …now go fuck off and do your thing." ]

[ "Tsk. This bastard is a madman." ]

[ "And you are an expert when it comes to mad and crazy people. Now do your work. Let me have her first kiss-" ]

[ "You wouldn't." ]

[ "Of course I will." ]

[ "El… is that a threat?" ]

[ "Of course it is. What do you think I would do when we are so conveniently locked in this special unique place? I can do anything I fuckin want to her." ]

[ "Don't." ]

[ "Hmmm? What was that? I didn't catch that, baby~." ]

[ "I will use a wish…" ]

[ "Come again? A little loudly." ]

[ "You are a bad bloody bitch." ]

[ "That I already know. Tell me what you were saying earlier. I heard something along the lines of 'I will'." ]

[ "Ughhhhhh! Leave her, damnit. You want these two to be together right? leave her body and mind alone!" ]

[ "O-ooy. What's this threat? You just used a wish and now you are threatening me back?" ]

[ "I was going to use a wish but I changed my mind. Leave her and I will leave him or else telling him to never get close to Cathy is an option that will only affect my plans a little bit. If you want them to be together, leave her for him." ]

This bastard was using his head to threaten me back… how dare he threaten me?!

Fucking bastard!

[ "Tsk." ]

[ "Your mistake. Anyway, don't ask her about the container just yet. We can get that on our own. Instead, tell her about the sword." ]

[ "Hmmm? We can get the container on our own? How? And besides, won't we need the container to get the Relic? We can get the sword if we try a little as well." ]

[ "No. It's different when the high elves obtain the sword themselves.

Tell her to tell her grandma about the dungeon. She will find the sapling there as well and we will catch her interest and ultimately receive an invitation from her, and we will go there around the 'night of the red moons' and get the container. Good idea, right?" ]

[ "And doing it this way will increase our affinity so when the time of the battle comes, we will get the Relic… damn that's one good plan man! You are a genius!" ]

'It was just a rough idea and prediction into what outline we could follow but it was a freaking genius one!'

There existed a dungeon filled with (Level-400) mobs and the elites were above (Level-500). The boss of the dungeon was a demonic creature of (Level-600), something that was almost on the verge of achieving freedom from the restrictions of the dungeon.

It was a place we would die in minutes after setting foot into, but for the near transcendent mage of this world, it was a different matter altogether.

She can clear that one-time dungeon on her own if she wishes for it, and when she does so, she will receive some good rewards for her achievement.

One of which will be a normal-looking shield, which will be just a normal-looking shield. But sealed inside of it will be a sword that will be anything but normal.

And, she will get a sapling of something their kind had been searching for eternity as well so, they will be in our eternal debt.

Anyway, we can't get the swords or go to that dungeon ourselves so if she gets the sword, then we go to the Elvan kingdom at her invitation and save their people from a catastrophe that will befall them because of the greed of the demons, and help them, the trust will be reinforced.

And, when she is going to become one with nature, instead of her unprepared heir, the Relic will come to us.

'Though there's still no guarantee things will go as we were thinking.'

The idea was good though, so, why not?

"We will happily be your guardians, Cathy~. You can rest assured~."

Becoming his friend or accepting him as a subordinate was too risky while on the other hand, being her guardian had many perks that we couldn't possibly resist.

She was better than that complicated bastard but still…

'Why did even the thought of becoming friends popped up in his mind?'

I can't understand this.

I knew that bastard more than enough to know asking someone to be his friend wouldn't even be the last thing he would want to do.

It was absurd, for me and my lazy mind, but the only thing that I can think of that might have been the cause of his decision was… us.

'The butterfly effect where the ripples caused by one small change can affect the whole of the Worldline, our existence in this world might be the reason for that request of his.'

And if we think it like that, there is a chance everything in this world, everything in the Worldline itself, might have become something entirely different after our arrival…
