Chapter 98: Different Preferences
[space_man][space_man]After hitting Eld, Moira noticed that the Healing magic sword was slightly stained with blood, so she carefully wiped it clean. Of course, she had healed Eld’s head with recovery magic beforehand.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Come to think of it, there’s something I wanted to ask Moira.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Seeing that Eld hadn’t woken up yet, Mary spoke up.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Yes, what is it?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira replied while wiping the round jewel at the tip of the magic sword. Mary took out a pair of magic tool glasses from her subspace.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Do you remember when you wore these?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Of course.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”At that time…… well…… how did Eld look?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Ahh~”Moira said happily.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”He was Eld to my liking~. Isn’t that how you felt too, Mary?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Mary blushed at that.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Huh? Is that not the case?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”No…… it’s not…… not the case…… but……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”No, well…… it’s not the case.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Mary shook her head and nodded as if trying to convince herself.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”More importantly, what kind of Eld is to Moira’s liking?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Eh? You wanna ask that? Hmm, well, I guess it’s okay to tell you~.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira said, resting her chin on her finger.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”You see, my preferred type of man is someone over 50 and a bit of a flirt.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Hee~…… So did Eld look older?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]To be honest, Eld looked young, so it was hard to imagine him looking older.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Yes. He had a few wrinkles, some gray hair mixed in, and yet he still had that air of a carefree young master…… Ah…… I’ve always thought my first time should be with a man like that……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira was unusually excited.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”When I tried on Mary’s glasses, Eld was exactly my type. I bet he’ll be like that in another 30 years……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira let out a sigh of admiration.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Even when I was traveling around the country, I met various older men, but there weren’t any good ones. If I had to say, Tohlight-san and the Lord of Linus territory were nice, but both of them had wrinkles on their faces that showed they’d gone through some hardships, so it wasn’t quite right.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Hee~……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Speaking of which, isn’t Tohlight-san married?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira suddenly voiced a question.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”No, he was married in his 20s, but his wife died before he turned 30.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Eld suddenly sat up and answered.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Kyaa! You were awake!?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira jumped up. Mary also looked at Eld with a surprised expression.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”A little while ago. It sounded like you were talking about me, so I was eavesdropping.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Eld said while rotating his neck.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Ah~, that surprised me. You didn’t have to eavesdrop.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Well, I was also too lazy to sit up. By the way, Mary.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Eld looked at Mary.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”How did I look to you through the glasses?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Eh……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Mary blushed again.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”W-Well, just normal……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Normal?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Does that mean the usual Eld?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Mary nodded shyly.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Ahaha. Then it’s the same for me. When I looked through the glasses, you were the usual Mary. The only difference was that your eyes looked more beautiful than usual.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Eld picked up the glasses on the table and put them on Mary.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Yeah, I thought so. But I wonder how it works that I look older.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Saying that, Eld took the glasses from Mary and put them on himself.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”How is it?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]When he looked at Moira, she blushed and gave him a seductive look.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Hey Eld, could you sleep with those glasses on tonight?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Eh? I don’t want to break them, so I’ll pass.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]He said, taking off the glasses. Moira took them and put them on.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Hmm, I see. Let’s go look for the same glasses that I can break next time.”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Moira looked at Eld with the glasses on. Eld’s eyes widened.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”What’s wrong?”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Eld took the glasses from Moira and put them back on her.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]”Ahaha…… This…… makes me feel pathetic……”
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]When Moira had worn them before, there was no change, but this time, Moira’s hair looked shiny, and she looked even more lovely than usual.
[space_man]
[space_man][space_man]Eld, thinking that the change in his perception was due to a change in his heart, sulked and went to bed. Mary and Moira, not being told why he felt pathetic, tilted their heads in confusion.
