妻子的秘密

<strong>*Crack!*</strong>

“Ummm…. Miss Cyrilia, why are you cracking your knuckles?” Seeing the stupid cat slowly backing away from me with each step I took towards him made me smile brightly from ear to ear.

“Miss Cyrilia, your smile is scary! We can talk about this rig… OOOff!” Oh? Maybe I should have let him finish his words?

“Your Highness!” The rabbit girl looked to be in a panic. She was holding her hammer, looking at me, and then looking at Prince Rythilin, unsure of what she should do._-.

I sniffed the air and smelt something that smelt off. “I wonder….” I floated down and landed on the barrier where the stupid cat was on his knees, holding his face. Blood dripped from his nose.

I reached down and grabbed him by his tail, causing him to yelp. “Nya! My tails! Miss Cyrilia, please let go! You’re going to tear them off!”

“I wonder, why do you have a sleeping agent on you? What exactly were you planning!?” I was mad. And I mean was really mad. This stupid cat had not only tried to trick me into dating him, but now he comes to my house with a sleeping agent!? I know of this sleeping agent due to my Father making sure I was prepared for the open road. So he had asked a merchant to pick up a few different kinds of questionable drugs and their antidotes that were legal but could be used for sinister acts. Between poisons and sleeping agents to aphrodisiacs. I had an understanding of what they smelled like. And with my dragon senses being sharper than a dog’s, I could easily pick up on the slight scent. This specific sleeping agent would knock a person out to the point that they would not wake up for ten hours no matter what was happening to them. This alone was enough to disgust me. Never mind the fact he was trying to break into my house in the middle of the night.

“Miss Cyrilia, it’s not what you think! I use this myself!” The stupid cat cried out without me needing to even get any evidence.

“Uhh! Miss Cyrilia, his highness, does use a sleeping agent to sleep.” The rabbit girl behind tried to cut in and explain, but I was not having any of it.

“You are telling me you come to my house, trying to break the barrier I set up to sneak into my house with a sleeping agent that you use for sleep in your pocket!? Do you take me for a damn idiot!?” I swung the stupid cat by the tail before slamming him down onto the barrier. “Do you really think I will not kill you!?”

“Wait!” The rabbit girl suddenly appeared in front of the stupid cat with her arms stretched out to her sides. “Miss Cyrilia, if you continue, I will have no choice but to fight you.”

“Oh? You wish to fight me!?” My lips curled up into a small smile as I stepped forward and appeared behind the rabbit girl and grabbed the stupid cat by his tails once more, and flung him into the air! “If I wish to deal with this stupid cat, I will deal with him. He has crossed a line that I will never forgive!”

“Miss Cyrilia!” The rabbit girl disappeared and caught the stupid cat before he flew into the sky any higher. My lips twitched as I looked at her. She seemed to be much more powerful than I thought. The rabbit girl looked at me as she stuck the stupid cat on her back and readied her hammer. “I beg you to let this end here and now.”

“Let me ask you something. If you set up a barrier so you could protect your home from intrusion and someone comes and begins smashing it with a huge hammer with bad intentions, what would you do in a situation as this?” I asked. I truly wished to know how she would answer.

“I would probably smash them into oblivion so they could never return to try again.” I chuckled at the rabbit girl’s honest answer.

“I see…. Since you were following orders, I really can’t blame you, so how about you hand over the culprit, and I let you go?” I asked with a smile.

“Ah! Right, okay….” The rabbit girl went to fly down towards me, but the stupid cat on her back suddenly came alive and smashed her on top of her head.

“You stupid rabbit, she was trying to get you to hand me over!” The stupid cat yelled out.

“But Your Highness, she made a solid point. Now that I think about it, we should never have done this. But as your servant, I can only follow orders. Just like how you always make me take a bat wit…. Mufo!” Right now, I was unsure what to say to this strange comedy routine. But it seems the stupid cat has officially stepped into the realm of perverted cat.

“Miss Cyrilia, it’s not what you think! I only asked her once as a joke!”  The stupid cat yelled out as if I cared.

“Why would I care about what you do with your rabbit girlfriend? What I care about is what you were planning to do after you broke my barrier? I will give you three seconds to explain. If I do not get an answer within three seconds, I will hit you for every second you do not tell me the truth.” I actually meant this. While the rabbit girl was fast, I can say for sure that I could easily beat her in speed. But it did amaze me that she was using footholds to stay standing in the air. She is the second person outside my family who can use such magic. She must have very good mana control and lots of it since she has been standing here for a while now unless it is some kind of magic tool.

“What three seconds!? How am I supposed to do…. Ooff!”

“3!”
