Ugh, why do I have to hear this girl drone on, I just want to go hang out with Thera.
I know, but if I have to hear one more of these assholes then I might kill somebody. They do know I’m technically engaged, right?
If that happens then I’ll just beg for dear mother Pelenia’s help. I’m sure if I promise to marry Thera on the spot she’ll happily agree, and Thera would probably accept to keep me alive, right?
I’m sure she’d forgive me eventually, and since she doesn’t plan on getting married anyway then there’s no real harm in being in a small sham one.
“As I was saying, the frozen mountains of our land are truly a sight to behold, if you were to ever be interested in arranging a visit my people would be more than happy to entertain you in your stay. Why, I’d be happy to show you around myself,” said the Jötunn noblewoman, an extreme beauty by his standards from a race afflicted with a passive ice magic that would freeze the environment around them.
She seemed to be around his age and was wearing a seductive smile that he easily ignored. He’d been caught off guard the first time he’d had to deal with this today, but by the time she’d arrived he’d already made braces for well over fifty other people, he’d grow numb to the obvious attempts at seduction.
It’s like they don’t know I’m reading their minds while I do this.
“Maybe sometime in the future,” He told her, clear to them both he was brushing off her offer. “Anyway, your brace is done so you're free to go.”
He tried to let go of her hand but she kept a gentle grip on his, knowing she had one last shot before she needed to leave. “Forgive me if I’m wrong, but you’re a human, aren’t you?” She asked him, knowing full well the answer from her country's investigations, just as many of the others that came before her knew as well.
“I am.”
“I thought so,” She beamed. “The summoned hero of our country is one as well you see, a nice girl named Sarah. I’m sure she’d love it if you came to visit. It must be so lonely to not be able to see your own kind after all.”
Holy fucking shit, is she actually trying to hook me up with my old classmate just to get me?
What was even the point of me choosing to remain anonymous when filing my patent? At least the ones before her had acted a little more subtle.
