Chapter 120 The sad thick barrier
We arrived at the Dustinis Mansion, located on the central avenue of town.
This is Darkness's hometown.
Inside the mansion.
The head of the Dustinis family, holding Darkness's hand, said with great excitement and emotion, "R-really? Is it really possible, Lalatina! Are you really willing to actively consider arranged marriages?"
"It's true, Father. Lalatina wants to go on a blind date this time." Darkness said this with a meek expression, but no matter how you looked at it, it was different from her usual self, with a kind of affected air.
Kazuma Sato and Aqua, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle, making Darkness look quite embarrassed.
By the way, Huihui didn't come; I heard Youyou wanted to see her about something.
"Lalatina, these three are—"
"These three are my adventure companions. I would like to ask them to accompany me to this blind date as temporary butlers and maids."
Darkness's words made her father frown, his face showing difficulty.
Seeing that he might be rejected, Charlotte took a step forward, deliberately showing off his priest's robes, and said, "Head of the Dustinis family, I think it would be better to have a priest present for a matchmaking event like this."
"Hmm...a blessing?"
The head of the Dastianis family wholeheartedly agreed. In fact, he had tried many methods without success in persuading Dastianis. Since she was a priestess and had been brought back by her personally, he was willing to give it a try.
The servants then led them to the reception room.
"Please wait here. We are currently preparing your butler uniforms and other supplies."
The maid invited the three to sit on the sofa in the reception room, brewed tea for them, and brought it over, saying, "Please enjoy."
Then he left.
The two refer to Kazuma Sato and Aqua, while Charlotte's role is that of a witnessing priest. But one of them exclaims, "Why do I have to be a servant?!"
Aqua puffed out her cheeks in displeasure as soon as she sat down and said, "Since Charlotte has become a priestess, then I want to be one too! Besides, I'm a goddess, you know. Wouldn't it be more prestigious to revert to my true identity?"
"Stop joking, okay? You call yourself a goddess? People will just think you're a crazy woman! Besides, do you even know that you're actually a follower of the Axis religion? Darkness and his family are devout followers of Eris!"
"But... but—"
"
The silly goddess was unhappy, throwing a tantrum on the floor, completely oblivious to the fact that this was someone else's home and she should maintain proper manners. It has to be said, she's incredibly insensitive in this regard.
Charlotte and Sato Kazuma ignored her, but after the maid outfit was delivered, they managed to persuade the silly goddess with a few words of encouragement and she obediently put on the maid outfit.
As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and surprisingly, she actually looks quite good in a pure and innocent maid outfit.
She wore a light blue long dress and a white apron, with a lace-trimmed headdress, and her long, smooth hair cascaded down her back. Her large eyes sparkled with obvious liveliness, giving her a Cinderella-like feel.
"How is it? Doesn't it suit me perfectly?"
"Hmm, Aqua would be perfect as a maid."
"Right, right! I—wait a minute, are you deliberately insulting me for not being a goddess?"
"I didn't do it on purpose."
"That's fine then."
"I'm stating the facts."
"I'm going to kill you!!"
Aqua lunged at him, but Charlotte held her head down while glancing at Kazuma Sato to the side. Although it gave the impression of a child wearing adult clothes, the well-tailored cut prevented it from looking too out of place.
"Not bad, Kazuma."
"Of course! I trained specifically for a while! — Although I didn't end up being involved in the school festival."
Kazuma Sato became dejected.
Perhaps that's why he changed from a positive angle to a negative one, Charlotte thoughtfully refrained from asking. Then, she looked at Darkness, who had also changed his clothes.
"So, are you ready, Miss Lalatina?"
"No, please don't call me Miss Lalatina! When other people are around, just call me Miss!"
Darkness said this shyly.
But Charlotte shook her head decisively and said, "Please be mindful of your status, Miss. We are your servants now."
"That's right, that's right." Kazuma Sato tugged at his clothes. "We've already been hired by your father. You should know your place, young lady."
"Ugh————"
Darkness's expression gradually turned somber; she knew a sadly thick barrier had formed between them.
"Did you think I would say that?"
"Don't get too cocky, you mere Darkness!"
"Exactly, they actually dare to put on airs."
"What kind of young lady are you? You perverted female knight! How dare you act so high and mighty!"
Charlotte and Kazuma Sato didn't maintain a second of respect before grabbing her hair, their rude behavior completely disregarding others, causing Darkness to beg for mercy repeatedly.
"No, please! I just got my hair done!!"
Although she complained, a smile appeared on her face. Indeed, they were still companions.
The blind date seems to be taking place in this mansion.
Then, just now, the head of the Dustinis family asked Charlotte to make sure the blind date went smoothly, and promised to give him a satisfactory reward afterward.
You probably told the same thing to Kazuma Sato, otherwise that guy wouldn't have been so enthusiastic.
Charlotte admired Barth personally. But considering Eldap as well, she could only apologize to him.
"You guys, come this way. Listen up! You all know what to do, right? I'm counting on you!"
Darkness, with a slightly uneasy expression, personally led us to the entrance to greet our blind date.
With maids from the Dastynes family attending her on either side, Darkness strutted around with her head held high, truly looking like a pampered young lady.
The servants lined up in front of the mansion’s entrance hall, while Darkness and her father stood in the very center of the hall.
Kazuma Sato and Charlotte stood on either side of Darkness, while Aqua stood beside Charlotte, making it look quite convincing.
The head of the Dustinis family looked very happy.
"But—I didn't expect you to agree to this blind date, I'm really happy for you—putting aside that guy Aldap, his son Bart is a really good man. You'll definitely be happy, Lalatina."
He wanted his daughter to be happy.
However, Darkness retorted decisively, "Oh, Father! Lalatina only said she'd actively consider blind dates, hehehe—after thinking it over, I still think it's too early to get married. It's too late now. I agreed to blind dates, but I didn't say I wanted to get married! I'm going to cause chaos. What blind dates? I'm going to wreak havoc on everything! Hahahaha!"
"H-How could this be—could it be that the three of you are also—"
Seeing his daughter suddenly reveal her true nature, the head of the Dustinis family was completely distraught. He looked at Charlotte and the other two beside him, his expression turning frightened.
Just then.
The gates of the mansion were opened, and the man in the photo appeared at the gate, accompanied by several attendants.
Darkness, as if to take the initiative, rushed forward.
"So you're my blind date, aren't you! My name is Dustinis Ford Lalatina, and you can call me Queen Dustinis—"
"Young Miss, watch your step!" x2
"Varied----!!!?"
Charlotte and Sato Kazuichi stepped on her skirt from either side, causing the excited Darkness to fall flat on her face.
It was only then that Darkness realized that these two guys didn't treat her as a noblewoman at all.
Of course, they didn't become adults either.
