Chapter 136 – Glasses boy develops a new tool that cannot be referred to as anything other than glasses

I feel like I’m being too easygoing about this.

But well… This is it.

I was the one who came up with this.

Or rather, it caught my eye, so it just couldn’t be helped.

This should be fine.

But I just can’t help thinking that I’m being a bit too easygoing with all this.

“Uhn… Are you really going to wear it?” The boy asked me.

“Yeah. That’s the quickest way for me to disguise myself.” I replied.

After the awkward meal, Adyll told me that she had no plans for the day, so I could do whatever I wanted.

So, I returned to my room.

But on the way there, I ran into the same maid that I met before lunch, so I casually invited him to my room.

And I asked him to bring a spare maid outfit.

And now, that thing is loosely spread on the bed.

Depending on Adyll’s schedule, I may need to accompany her as a bodyguard when she goes on an outing.

That is a huge deal.

I would stand out way too much if I were to accompany the old lady as she moved around this city.

Therefore, I figured that I shouldn’t be ‘me’ while I was with her.

This way, I can avoid getting entangled in a troublesome situation.

That was the gist of it.

Which is why I came up with the idea of disguising myself as a girl by using a maid outfit.

Well… Nothing will happen if I just stare at it, so let’s try it on.

“Ah, I’ll help you.” The maid boy told me.

“Oh? Thank you.” I replied.

He must have noticed that I was serious about it once I started taking off my clothes, so he proceeded to help me out with putting on the harder parts of the outfit.

This size is fine.

He may be a bit taller than me, but the length of the sleeves and of the hem are still within acceptable range.

I’m also not having any trouble moving around, nor does the outfit feel too tight, so I think I should have no issues wearing this.

“So, how about it?” I asked.

“It suits you quite well.” The boy replied.

“And the real answer?” I asked next.

“It really does suit you, it’s true. In fact, think you should be able to start working here soon.” The boy told me.

Is that so…?

I’m not really happy about this kind of compliment, but thank you.

“If I were to work here, Seviarow would start staring at me with lewd eyes though, wouldn’t she?” I asked.

“It’s alright for as long as you don’t mind it.” The boy replied.

Oh, I see…

I don’t think I’m good at not minding this kind of thing, so…

No. I’m good. I’m never working here.

… But well, back to the disguise.

I don’t think just changing my clothes will be enough to make a difference. I have to do something about my head and face.

Taking the glasses off is out of the question though, so I need to think of something else.

“Do you have something like a wig?” I asked.

“I do. Because the young lady sometimes says she is in the mood for long hair.” The boy replied.

… His comments are truly dark.

And Seviarow’s desires are completely out in the open too, it seems…

“So you’d like to borrow that too? Then… What about makeup?” He asked me.

I staggered a bit as I heard his words… He truly is a maid, isn’t he?

“I’m not exactly recommending it, but if you’re going to be doing this, then you should go all the way in.

“I don’t think there is a point in using a half-hearted disguise.” The boy told me.

He is right on that.

I wonder if I can learn how to apply makeup, then…

“Uhn… Don’t you have any resistance to cross-dressing?” The boy asked me.

“I’m fine if it’s only this much.” I replied.

I did feel a bit uncomfortable wearing a skirt, but…

I can remember what it feels like at the hunting grounds. I can remember what it feels like to smear my body with mud and feces.

Sometimes I even had to cover myself with freshly peeled fur in order to hide the human smell.

Compared to that, cross-dressing is nothing.

The smell of these clothes doesn’t make me sick, and I don’t have to worry about being attacked if the prey finds out that I’m a human.

Feeling safe is truly wonderful.

“You’re right. If I’m gonna do it, then I have to do it properly.

“Wigs, makeup, what else?” I asked.

“Eh? Uhn… Chest pads?” He suggested.

“Sure, let’s put some in. Let’s make it unnaturally big.” I replied.

“High heels to hide what your actual height is?” He suggested next.

“I’ll wear them. I’ll become a big person.” I replied.

“And… Feminine gestures?” He suggested.

“I can try remembering them. I need to wiggle around a bit or something?” I asked.

“I don’t think wiggling is the right word, but… Well, underwear?” The boy suggested next.

“Sure, I’ll put them on. I’ll put on some stripes and… Wait, hold on.” I stopped myself midway.

I was going along with his momentum, but hold on a second here.

“Wait, so your underwear is… A woman’s underwear?” I asked.

“… Would you like to see it? It’s difficult to explain it, so it’s quicker to just show it…” The boy muttered with an embarrassed face.

Honestly… I have no idea what kind of underwear he is wearing.

The stripes that I mentioned were just what I vaguely remembered seeing Ainliese wearing. Something I accidentally saw back in the day that I visited the base of Black Swan of Dawn.

When I saw it, I assumed that that was what the underwear of the royal capital was like.

My village was in the countryside, so there wasn’t much difference in the design of underwear for men and women.

At least not as far as I know.

They were just so unremarkable, that I couldn’t even tell if a given underwear was mine or Horun’s.

And when I arrived at the brothel district here, I saw a woman holding a kitchen knife, and a man holding his clothes… Their underwear didn’t seem to be that different from what we had back in the village. They were just of a different color, with slightly different patterns.

Well, I didn’t look at them closely, so maybe there were some different details.

Ah, but coming to think about it, I do remember hearing my mom say something like, ‘when it’s the time for your match…’ to a newlywed woman of my village, and I think she was giving her some underwear.

I didn’t really understand the meaning of it though.

I wondered if she was going to fight something, but it didn’t seem to be right.

“… Can you show me what it’s like?

“Ah, I’m sorry if it’s an unreasonable request. You don’t need to force yourself to do it.” I decided I should ask the boy about it.

But well, he was clearly reluctant about it.

And honestly, it’s pretty embarrassing to ask this, and it’s probably even worse for him.

But still, I want to check it out.

I’m now wondering what kind of underwear is popular in the brothels of Krozheit.

“Alright… Then, please take a look…” The boy said.

Then, with a clearly embarrassed expression, he slowly pulled up his skirt.

******

That was the work of humans… The darkness of humanity… A thing born from humanity’s lust.

I never imagined that I would see something so horrifying and so vivid on my first day in this city.

The lawless country, Krozheit… This place is more sinful than I could have possibly imagined.

******

“Uhn… How does that even function as underwear?” I couldn’t help asking.

“I’m not sure either, but the young lady sometimes lifts my skirt.” The boy replied.

I stayed silent.

“If it makes the young lady happy, I’m fine with that.” He told me.

The darkness that inflicts him seems to be even deeper and darker than I had originally imagined.

“… It might have been better for me to not know about this thing… The way I view Seviarow has now been forever changed.” I commented.

The reverse harem that I only knew about in my head, now felt terrifyingly real, painfully ruthless, and absolutely… Raw.

“I think the young lady is a decent person though. At least when compared to the people of this city, she is quite sensible.” The boy told me.

Is that so…?

I honestly hope that he is right in his judgement…

… Though I can’t imagine why there are so many holes in an underwear. What’s the point of leaving so much stuff exposed?

I don’t think this can qualify as underwear.

“Ah, so, what about the underwear?” The boy asked me.

“I’ll use the normal ones. In my view, this is not underwear.” I replied.

I’ve seen something that is too hard to comprehend, so… Let’s stop worrying about it.

… Though some time later, I ended up finding out that this kind of underwear was very expensive, and I just couldn’t help doubting the boy’s judgement of Seviarow.

******

“Asch, are you there?” I heard a low voice come from outside the room.

I was feeling somewhat shocked and depressed after seeing that underwear.

As for the maid boy, he currently had an indescribable expression on his face.

So, hearing this voice come from outside felt like salvation coming to my doorstep.

I could easily recognize this voice by now. It was Dynawood, the butler, who was knocking on the door.

“Come in.” I told him.

He immediately came in and said, “Kid, I heard you had brought one of our servants in…

“What are you doing?”

Seeing me in a maid outfit, Dynawood’s grim expression became even grimmer than before.

“I’m preparing a disguise, so I asked him to help me.” I gestured towards the maid boy.

“A disguise? For what?” Dynawood asked.

“It’s easier to work as a bodyguard if your face isn’t known.

“It’s also easier to move around and gather information.

“Or at least, it will be easier for me.

“I think this will help me out with my job.” I explained.

The main reason is that the disguise is helpful for me due to personal reasons, but I don’t need to tell him that.

Besides, all the reasons I just told him were truthful.

Dynawood let out a small, muffled groan. He seemed to have reluctantly agreed with the idea.

“If you are going to disguise yourself, you should go all the way with it. Otherwise, there is no point.” Dynawood told me.

While saying the same thing that the maid boy had said, Dynawood, for some reason, started helping me out with the disguise.

******

And after a while, we completed it.

I checked myself in the large mirror that Dynawood brought.

I struggled with choosing a suitable wig and applying makeup, but we managed to finish it by evening.

“Alright… I think this should be fine.” I muttered.

The one thing that still stood out were my glasses, but that couldn’t be helped, as removing them is not an option.

But everything else no longer looked like me.

The long wig may have had a similar color to my hair’s, but it still changed my impression considerably.

Though what surprised me the most was the makeup.

I somehow felt like the shape of my eyes had become completely different… Makeup is amazing.

Those two alone might have been enough, but I’m also wearing shoes with thicker soles, which make me a bit taller even if they don’t have heels, so they serve the purpose of helping the disguise without getting in the way of my movement.

It should have been only a small change, but I really feel like the height change was noticeable.

We also put a modest amount of filling on my chest.

I tried cramming in as much as possible, but I was told that it looked unnatural, so we’ve settled with this instead.

I suppose getting them large enough to be called super big will remain a dream.

Oh well, the large ones were unpopular, so it can’t be helped.

And the underwear was my own.

I don’t want to fall that far into the darkness.

“The rest are the gestures, but… Well, yours aren’t so rough to begin with, so you might not need it.” Dynawood told me.

Asch nodded, “Feminine behavior is not something you can acquire overnight, so this much is fine.”

Since I got the approval of both Dynawood and of the maid boy, I’ve decided to go with this appearance for the time being.

I do look like a completely different person, so I think this disguise is about as perfect as it could be.

“… Ah, I spent too long here. It’s about time for dinner.” Dynawood suddenly commented.

Then, he quickly put away the tools that he brought in, and left the room together with the maid boy.

“I’ll lend you some makeup tools and a mirror. You’ll have to practice it yourself from now on.” Dynawood told me that just before closing the door.

“Thank you for taking care of me.” I told him.

I don’t know if he heard it, but I said anyways.

******

So now…

After confirming that nobody was near my room, I stood in front of the mirror again.

Then, I started imagining the different possibilities of glasses. Something that I had been thinking about since the other day.

Up until now, I had been focusing only on the effects related to sight and to Gifts, but I’ve since discovered another possibility that I had yet to explore for my glasses.

Goggles.

Glasses with a different shape.

Glasses with a different design.

As in, even if they don’t have the shape I’m used to, they may still be glasses.

******

I created new glasses.

Glasses that covered my face.

Glasses that covered my head.

Glasses that covered all the way up to my neck.

Glasses that looked more like a mask worn by a prisoner… Well, they can still be called glasses for as long as they fulfill the basic functions of glasses, right?

Objections to this definition are not allowed.

Because I was able to do it. I was able to create this.

There are lenses around the eyes of this mask-like glasses, so they’re definitely glasses.

I colored them the darkest I could, so as to not let people recognize my face and eyes when looking directly at me.

I’m not sure what kind of leather is being used to cover my face and head, but it is flexible and fits in perfectly.

It doesn’t interfere with movement, nor does it interfere with speaking.

My mouth and nose are closed tightly, but I seem to be able to breathe normally.

When I look at myself in the mirror, I look like an obviously evil person who is covering his head with a black leather bag.

And the maid outfit is furthering the dangerous person impression.

But if I look like this, then nobody will realize that it’s me.

******

With these new glasses, even if I stand out a bit, it will be alright.

Because nobody will assume that the person wearing this outfit is me. The actions done by the masked person will not be associated with neither Eil nor Elle.

… But I am standing out in the opposite way that I wanted.

I mean… No matter how I look at it… I totally look like a pervert.

Someone who is wearing a black leather bag on his head, and has something that looks like metal around his eyes…

If I saw this kind of person in the middle of the night, I would surely run away…

… I think I should try to improve this design a bit.
