If You Think I'm a Casanova, Then Don't Kiss Me

Even Gada herself didn't know why. Someone like her, a vampire, shouldn't feel this way, but when she saw Yotsuba Mahiro, her heart was always filled with longing.

Even when facing Cain, he had never felt this way.

Perhaps it was because, at that time, she was still a pampered young lady.

"I think we should forget about it."

Mahiro stood up and distanced himself from her.

"I'm afraid you'll drain my blood."

"Hehe, are you sure? This is the best chance to kill me."

Gada stood up and blocked his way again.

But this time, she no longer displayed the shyness of a young woman, but rather a strong and domineering presence.

She grabbed his collar, stood on tiptoe, and gently kissed the corner of his mouth.

Yotsuba Mahiro: "..."

That's it?

Is this all there is to being assertive and domineering?

As Gada approached, Mahiro thought she was going to give him a deep kiss.

The result was so unremarkable.

"What, are you dissatisfied with my kissing skills?"

"Of course, who are you flirting with?"

Mahiro wasting words, Makoto grabbed Gada's waist before she could leave.

However, he was quite surprised when he got his hands on it.

Although she was wearing a military uniform, you could still feel how slender Gada's waist was.

Before Gada could react, his kiss landed directly on Gada lips.

Mmm, it's as soft as a marshmallow.

Compared to other girls, this woman seemed sweeter, even cloyingly sweet.

"Waaaaah!!!"

Once she realized what was happening Gada immediately began to struggle.

Despite being the progenitor of martial arts, he was currently using only light, soft, and weak little fists.

Despite being a True Ancestor, she didn't use her familiars or magic, struggling like a little girl.

And then she gradually stopped, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him even more passionately.

The empty hall echoed with sounds of astonishment.

This is the first time I've felt this way.

Those slightly widened eyes gradually narrowed into slits, as if they were sinking into a state of blissful enjoyment.

They fought like madmen the two times they met before, but now they can hug and kiss each other.

After a long while, their lips parted.

"Woo-ha..."

Gada let out a long sigh, like that of a drowning person.

A captivating blush rose to her pale cheeks, her eyes brimming with satisfaction, and her exquisite body was pressed completely against his.

Like a bottle of aged wine that has just been opened, it exudes an enticing and mellow aroma.

Only the bloodlust in his eyes did not fade; instead, it intensified.

"Alright, we've kissed enough, now it's time to get down to business."

He's like a scumbag who abandons his wife after getting back together with her.

One second he was being all lovey-dovey with Gada, the next he just threw her back into her seat.

Even Gada, who had already come to her senses, couldn't help but cross her arms and look at him with a resentful expression.

Mahiro stated, without taking it seriously:

"Your appearance tonight wasn't a coincidence, was it? And those kids seem to know you quite well, what's going on?"

"Hmph, don't think of me as that kind of despicable person. I just happened to be passing by tonight. I came across this orphanage while I was wandering around, so I came to visit for a couple of days and got to know those little ones."

Gada crossed her arms, crossed her legs which were covered by black stockings, and said with a disdainful look.

When she first encountered this orphanage, she actually wanted to leave, although she was indeed somewhat interested in the abandoned human children.

But after experiencing it all and seeing it so often, the interest wanes.

Moreover, at that time, Yotsuba Mahiro, that scumbag, was the guy who interested her more.

But somehow she ended up going in and stayed for almost a week.

I visit on time every day.

Now it seems it was all fate!

"Oh, really?"

Mahiro didn't doubt Gada's explanation.

Given this woman's power and status, there was no need for her to fabricate a lie, and besides, very few people at the orphanage knew that she was the real behind-the-scenes financier.

"Since you've asked me, I also have a question for you."

"Um?"

Mahiro looked up with slight surprise and met Gada's gaze, then nodded and said, "Tell me about it."

"Kanase Kensei, you deliberately let that man go tonight, didn't you?"

"!!!"

A flicker of surprise crossed Mahiro's face, but he quickly regained his composure and asked with a smile:

Why do you think that?

Upon hearing this, Gada looked at him with a slightly meaningful gaze, and her tone was even more enigmatic.

"Because killing that man would only take you a moment."

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was something that happened easily.

"But you didn't do that, which means that Kanase Kensei has other values for you... Let me guess, I think the artificial angel plays a part in that, but it shouldn't be all of it."

The technology of Mock Angel is indeed tempting, but someone at her level wouldn't care much about it.

The technique known as the "Mock Angel" is widely known even among the "Devas".

By artificially adding a psionic center, and thus endlessly amplifying spiritual power, one can ascend from a mortal body to a higher-dimensional being.

Having Yotsuba Mahiro and having secretly observed him, she had come to know this man to some extent.

This is a man who has an extraordinary care for human infants.

Logically speaking, someone with his personality would never allow Kanase Kensei to misbehave with the children.

But since he did this, it means he had a more worthy goal to focus on.

Considering Kanase Kensei's life trajectory, plus recent events, there's only one conclusion—

"Your target should be the first princess of the Aldegia Kingdom, La Furia Lihavain, right?"

A confident smile gradually spread across Gada's lips.

Perhaps even she herself didn't realize just how girlish her movements have become these days.

It no longer has any trace of the true ancestor.

It felt like stepping back into the days of the Devas Royal Family.

"Not bad, you're quite capable. Few people can guess my purpose, and you're one of them."

Mahiro clapped his hands as he praised Gada.

This gave Gada immense satisfaction.

"Hmph, of course, don't underestimate Yu's intelligence capabilities."

It was like coaxing a child; they completely fooled this Third True Ancestor.

"However, you really are a womanizer and a philanderer."

The demon assassin Natsuki Minamiya, the Librarian Witch Aya Sengakuji, the head of the Lion King Agency's Three Saints, Koyomi Himgari, the twelve original bodies of the Fourth Progenitor, the monitor of the Lion King Agency, and it is said that the vengeful priestess Asagi Aiba also has an ambiguous relationship with this man...

"Is there?"

Faced with Gada's disdain, Mahiro shrugged helplessly and said:

"All I want is to give these girls a complete family."

That doesn't change the fact that you're a scumbag.

"Then why did you kiss me?"

Gada Kukokan: "..."

This third progenitor, who ruled over a vast territory, fell into a rare silence.

She dared not meet Mahiro again, a blush rising on her cheeks.

After a long while, she recovered from the embarrassment, cleared her throat, and asked again, feigning embarrassment:

"Ahem, I guess that man Kanase Kensei, has already gone to find the princess of Ardigia, right? Since your target is her, what are you waiting for?"

I'm waiting for someone.

Mahiro answered directly.

To be precise, they were waiting for intelligence.

It has to be said that Kanase Kensei is a man who is truly discreet in his actions.

Perhaps because of him, the battle between the Mock Angel that was supposed to take place on Itogami Island did not occur as expected.

Based on the information provided by Gamma, the man moved the experimental site off Itogami Island.

If the laboratory weren't so difficult to move, it probably wouldn't even be located here.

As dawn broke, the intelligence he needed finally arrived.

Zeta delivered it personally.

After escaping last night, Kanase Kensei left Itogami Island without stopping.

Head to a small island 100 kilometers away from Itogami Island.

It was a crescent-shaped island with a central area covered by green forest, less than 20 kilometers in diameter, and it felt like you could circle the island in half a day.

No houses can be seen from above; it is a completely deserted island.

Originally, that place was a training ground used by various companies on Itogami Island for live-fire exercises with robotic dolls.

However, through clandestine operations, it was bought by Kanase Kensei.

It was transformed into an experimental arena where Mock Angel fought each other.

It is said that La Fria was hiding there.

To be honest, when he learned this information, Mahiro's lips twitched involuntarily.

Is La Fria lucky or unlucky?

The good thing is that, just like in the original story, they landed on the same island.

The bad news is that it turned into a place where a bunch of Mock Angel were fighting each other.

"I hope she's still alive and well."

Mahiro silently mourned for Raphtalia for three seconds.

They immediately set off for the island.
