Taming The Villainesses

(EP-131.2) Nova #2

131 – Ars Nova #2

“Then, Sir Gospel, please consider it.”

“Goodbye. I will get back with an answer soon.”

Mirna and I left the boardroom.

Turned out that while I was talking with the Sages, the sun had already set and it was dusk. The meeting took longer than expected.

Mirna asked.

“Theo, will you accept the Sages’ offer?”

“Um, well.”

At Mirna’s question, I remembered the conversation I just had. It was about exploring the dungeons where the Demon King’s spells were deeply sealed and making sure they stay sealed.

In return, I would receive personal lessons on various magics from the Sages.

In addition, my grades would be raised to an A and I would even be promoted to Gold Rank to ensure no hindrance to my activities.

Not only could I learn magic from the only few Archmages on the continent, but there were also various other benefits that came along with it. Was there a more tempting offer than this?

If I ranked up to Gold, I’d be given a private room.

And there was a high chance of acquiring and absorbing more of King Solomon’s spells while exploring the dungeons. I had nothing to lose in this deal, but I decided to pretend I was worried.

“I’ll have to think about it a bit more.”

“Well, it’s not something to decide lightly as it could be a risky endeavor. Then let’s think about it later and have dinner together—”

Just as Mirna was saying something, I suddenly felt someone approaching me in the dark.

“Sir Theo.”

“Professor Balan.”

It was Professor Balan. She slowly rose from the wheelchair she had been sitting in, and with trembling knees, came closer to me.

She was like a newborn fawn, making me feel uneasy about her delicate movements. Then, she suddenly knelt in front of me and tightly embraced my waist.

Mirna was even more surprised than I was.

“Professor Balan, what are you doing?”

“Thank you for saving my life. I wanted to show my sincerest gratitude.”

Thanks to this, her large breasts hugged my knees. It was quite the sensation, somewhat similar to Elga.

“I don’t have much to offer in return, but if there’s anything you desire, Sir Theo, I will comply. Anything at all, whether it’s my accumulated knowledge, my position, or even, my body….”

Professor Balan rubbed her face against my thighs, which inevitably caused a biological reaction and excited my tail.

“Professor Balan! What are you saying? How disgraceful! Please step away!”

Mirna pulled Professor Balan up and back to her wheelchair.

However, Professor Balan didn’t stop there. She seemed really grateful to me, as she pulled something out of her chest and held it out to me like a gift.

What was it though?

As I got a closer look, it turned out to be a key.

“It’s, it’s the key to my research lab. Sir Theo can come and ask questions whenever you want or when you’re curious about something. Please, feel free to visit me. Anytime… I’ll always be there….”

As I accepted it, Professor Balan, with her maid, disappeared into the distance. As I watched her retreating figure in the darkness, Mirna suddenly said as if she were angry.

“What a helpless woman. It’s because her heart is weak that she got ruled over by magic. Theo, you shouldn’t listen to a woman like that. Do you understand?”

“Yes, my lady.”

As I said that, I noticed something written on the keychain.

「I have something to tell you. Please come to my lab.」

Was it some sort of a secret?

I quickly tucked the key away into my pocket, lest someone saw it.

Actually, I had things that I wanted to ask Balan, but because there were people, I kept my mouth shut.

With the moon rising high at midnight, I left the dormitory and headed to Balan’s lab.

Her lab was located in a convenient and luxurious Class A research building, so it wasn’t hard to find.

Knocking.

As I knocked on the door, I sensed movement from inside.

━Who is it?

“It’s Theo Gospel. I have something to discuss. May I come in?”

━Ah, Sir Theo. O-Of course, you can come in. Feel free to open the door with the key I gave to you.

With her permission, I opened the door and entered.

The inside was well-lit with a window overlooking the outside scenery. There were also various preserved animal specimens and bubbling experimental apparatuses in view.

A science lab certainly looked eerie at night.

At the center of all this was a pale-skinned woman, wearing a black negligee, sitting in a wheelchair.

Under the soft light of the candle, Balan’s crimson eyes curved like the crescent moon. Though, my gaze was still naturally drawn to the deeply cut neckline and her bosom…

There was just something magical about them that drew men’s eyes. Truly remarkable…

“I’ve been waiting for you. Uh, I didn’t know when you would come… Please have a seat.”

“So, why did you give me the key? I assume there’s a purpose in calling me here.”

But instead of answering my question, Professor Balan slowly got up from her seat.

Then she walked towards me. Her gait was so straight that one wouldn’t think she had been sitting in a wheelchair.

Seureuk, seureuk.

Seeing those white bare feet approaching me, I kicked off my chair and got up, and pulled out my wand.

“What is this, all of a sudden, you deceived everyone? You’re walking perfectly.”

To think she was pretending with her sickness!

Was the wheelchair just an act? Why did she act like she couldn’t walk?

Frankly, I was perplexed.

And why was it that her red eyes curved even more?

“You don’t need to lie here. I already know everything…. Aren’t you deceiving everyone?”

“… Me deceiving who?”

“You have the talent of an Actor. Ho, however it’s useless to me. Son of David, the great and wise. Balan Sabrnak offers her reverence.”
