"Do you plan to use that ore right now, or maybe you want to wait until having more to create a different weapon?"
Lina wasn’t surprised by Yale’s methods to deal with the reincarnations of the invaders, but if Yale was planning to create a weapon with that ore, it was a great chance to observe him and learn.
"I guess I will just craft a dagger with that ore, but I will do it later. If I am enlightened again in this place, it can be problematic if someone interrupts me."
Yale felt that his chances of being enlightened again were quite high and since Lina would probably be enlightened while observing him, it was better if they were in a private place.
Lina also understood that point, so she didn’t speak any more about the topic.
"Right. Yale, are we going back to the capital of the Elven Kingdom? You said that you wanted to announce that they are under your protection."
Lina felt that the king and his wife were quite amusing due to the wife’s past life secret, so she didn’t mind watching the show a bit more.
Due to her past experiences, Lina usually hated men except those in her family and Yale, so every time she found a situation like the one of the king’s wife, she felt it really funny to see.
Families that had their soul empowerment in danger to disappear as the time passed usually chose to do political marriages. At that time, it wasn’t strange that if both families had inheritors of the same gender, one of them would be forced to reincarnate, which was quite cruel and usually developed in battles between the two parties to decide who would suffer that fate.
She even remembered that a man who always pestered her ended losing the battle against the family he was forced to marry and was forced to reincarnate. After knowing about it, for more than a hundred years, each time Lina thought about it, she couldn’t avoid laughing while thinking that it was the karma for having pestered her so much.
However, the reactions of those forced by their families were very different from that of the king’s wife who didn’t seem disconformable with the change, so Lina was even more curious.
"No need. I will just announce it here."
Yale didn’t have the slightest interest in meeting that couple again without reason. Yale guessed about Lina’s thoughts when she asked to return there, but Yale wasn’t interested in such topics.
Yale just feel pity for those who were forced to reincarnate to marry someone else because their elders forced them, but that was their fault for being weaker than the other party, and the weak always ended suffering, no matter the situation.
Of course, some tried to flee from their families after noticing their fates, but there was no way that they could escape if they couldn’t even win a battle against the other party.
Yale felt that maybe someone managed to escape, and the families hid the news to avoid being ridiculed by others, but he was sure that it wasn’t something usual.
Lina pouted after noticing that Yale didn’t share her interest, but she didn’t complain.
Yale didn’t lose time and announced that the Elven Kingdom was under his protection while showing what would happen to those who opposed him.
The huge crater under him was enough to scare to death everyone who noticed it.
"Lina, let’s go to the place of the Dragon Race first."
Since Yale denied the possibility of going back to the capital of the Elven Kingdom, he needed to tell quickly another destination, or he felt that Lina would manage to make them go back to satisfy her curiosity. She could spy them with the Divine Sense, but it wasn’t the same as being there in person.
"Isn’t it better to go to my sister’s place first? I know that she and my brother-in-law had been restraining themselves until now but letting that pair of lovers alone for more time is risky. Moreover, that Ronragruk is a male and it isn’t like if he is deeply related to you. Do we really need to see him?"
Lina had no interest in dragons as she had already seen a lot in the past, and she also knew that Yale and Ronragruk hadn’t a deep relationship, so she didn’t feel like going. Of course, if Ronragruk had been a cute dragon girl, she might have been interested, but that wasn’t the case.
As for those weaker than Ronragruk, she didn’t even think about them because those who weren’t even Law Masters didn’t enter in her eyes unless they had some connection to her.
She had saved Wyba and Aiwai because the Mysterious Expert requested it, and it was after that that she liked them so much that she was grateful for having listened to the words of the Mysterious Expert.
"As expected, you are into girls... Well, you can do whatever you like with your life."
Yale was convinced that Lina liked girls more than guys.
"It isn’t like that! I already told you before!"
Lina herself had thought that she maybe had such inclinations in the past due to her hate for men, but since she didn’t hate Yale at all, she discarded that thought.
She didn’t feel any displeasure when thinking about hugging or kissing Yale; she only felt a bit shy. Thus, she was sure that she still liked men despite her generalized hate.
However, she noticed that when thinking about doing the same with someone else, she felt it absolutely disgusting.
"What is happening to me? I hate imagining any men doing those things with me, but Yale if the one in my imagination is Yale, then it is alright... Wait! Maybe I like him? This shouldn’t be possible. We are just faking our relationship. Moreover, I am sure that he will hate me if he thinks that I have such feeling for him."
Lina’s face was completely red at that moment, but Yale thought that it was because of the topic about Lina liking girls, so he decided to not ask more about it. After all, he was just Lina’s fake boyfriend, and he didn’t plan to meddle in her private life.
"Ronragruk is a funny guy. He has a weird and funny dance style. You must see him at least once."
Yale quickly changed the topic to avoid Lina from feeling awkward from the previous topic.
"Alright, we will go to see that funny dance."
Lina said with a tone of voice difficult to hear, but Yale heard her without problems.
Yale felt that she was shy due to the previous topic, so he didn’t feel strange her reaction.
"Yale, wait."
Yale stopped when he heard Lina’s voice.
At the start, Yale felt that Lina wanted to say something about the previous topic, but he didn’t expect that she would hug him and then, kiss him.
Yale couldn’t understand the situation, but Lina’s face was even redder than before.
"I liked kissing him, and I want to do it again. I am definitely in love with him. Why? This never happened to me before..."
While thinking, Lina felt that she had been too daring in her previous actions.
"Yale... You know... We are a couple even if it is only in front of others... I think that we need to be closer or someone will end discovering it. In fact, since I already decided to treat Ange as my daughter, it will be problematic if she didn’t saw us acting like a real couple, so we need to get used to this kind of contact."
She was nervous while speaking because she hoped that Yale would believe that story. She would die from embarrassment if Yale discovered the truth.
"I see. I hadn’t thought so much about it until now, but now that you said it, it is true. Our act works with people who only see us for a short time, but in the long term, it will be strange if Ange or Aiwai don’t notice it."
Yale didn’t believe that Wyba could notice the difference, but Aiwai and Ange were quite sharp in that aspect.
"For Ange’s sake we need to improve our acting, so we need to get used to this kind of things even when we thought that no one is seeing. If not, we may end making a mistake in front of them, and Ange would be heartbroken if she discovers the truth."
Lina sighed in relief after Yale believed her reasons.
"By the way, I think that you should touch me a bit more. My brother-in-law is more open when hugging my sister, and I think that you should do the same."
Although Lina felt unable to admit it in a loud voice, she wanted Yale to treat her as her brother-in-law treated her sister.
She always felt that her sister was a bit exaggerated by enjoying so much being with her boyfriend, but after Lina noticed about her feeling, she started to understand her sister.
"If I do that, with our current relationship, I would feel bad for you."
Yale didn’t want to touch too much Lina’s body since they were only in a fake relationship and Lina hated men.
"I permit you to touch me whatever you want. Everything is for the sake of Ange’s happiness!"
She flushed after noticing what she said. Fortunately, since she had turned Ange into the main reason, Yale believed her.
