I Am No King's

Chapter 286 – Suspension Bridge Effect

"Actually, I'd rather be able to help Rina without making her fall for me, but..."

[Gin, suspension bridge effect is inevitable.] Inanna. [Basically, right now, Rina was at the very bottom and was destroyed. And, the moment this happened, no matter who would help, that person would become a target of falling for Rina. Yeah, think of it like love at first sight. Not Lina. I can say that me, the Emir, and even your love for Tasha is a suspension bridge effect.]

And, Inanna started giving long lectures on a science of psychology.

Suspension bridge effect, yes. I never expected it. And, if I think carefully, I fell in love with Tasha at the bottom, at the bottom of the abyss. What this means is that my love for Tasha is a fake.

Inanna, as if she could read my mind, continued her lecture.

[It doesn't mean your affection or we're fake. Think of the suspension bridge effect as only a lighter or gas at the beginning. However, if this affection is not balanced with proper care and behavior, sooner or later it will disappear. Because Tasha happens to be a good person, then your affection is relatively stable or even increased. And that's what happened to us, too. So, don't worry, our love for you is not fake.]

"..."

I closed my face. After hearing Inanna's words, which were like a confession of love, my face became hot, blushing. I have listened to them many times to say this. But somehow, I felt different this time. Is it because I am separated from them?

Nah! No way! There hasn't been a day since I separated from them. There must be another reason that made me blush. Yeah, nevermind. It doesn't matter why I blushed. They're my future wife too.

"After some thought, why are all the people who seem to fall for me being princesses and nobles?"

[Ah, not really,] The Emir refused. [You know, I heard from Ninlil that some of your high school friends, who are not nobles, are also in love with you. Let alone that, in fact, I can also see that Nanna, a friend of Ninlil, also has feelings for you. And, you yourself are also aware of it, right?]

I can't answer. If I think about it, there might be such an incident. Despite the scattering of codes, I chose to ignore them all. And, since it's all just code, I'm not entirely sure they have feelings for me. Yeah, except for Illuvia. He said it straight away, so I'm pretty sure.

[Gin,] Inanna continues the conversation. [You are indeed opportunists in terms of business and others. However, in relationships, I can say you are the defensive, cowardly type of person.]

"..."

The Emir added, [Inanna was right, Gin. Every time we do it, we have to force you. And you expect us to believe you're gonna fuck with Rina? Huh! Forget that! You are a coward in love.]

I let out a breath. These two future wives are really something. They can guess my way of thinking even if we only communicate by voice.

"Okay, I admit I'm a coward. And, obviously not going to make love. But, maybe, I'll hug her, try to calm her down." I was silent for a moment. "Rina was crying in her sleep. He's calling his sister."

[Ah, quick,] Inanna responds weakly.

[Gin, you're too good. You realize that?]

Nah! I was unconscious! A person who is too good will not kill his assistant just for treason. Good people will not do the cleaning. And, if I were a good man, I wouldn't have killed Illuvia. So, I'm not a good person.

"Hmm?"

[What's up, Gin?]

"There are uninvited guests. I'll end the phone this time."

[Okay, gin. Be careful yes.]

[The Emir and I love you.]

"Yes, I love you too."

I hung up the phone immediately after saying goodbye. I went straight to the door and opened it.

"Ro–"

"Hello, room service, huh?" I interrupted the waiter in a whisper. "There's a drink for us, right?"

"Ah, yes. Please." The waiter whispered.

I received a bottle of wine from the waiter. "My friend is asleep, so I don't want to wake him up. Thank you, yeah."

"Thank you for trusting us."

I closed the door and went back into the room.

"There's nothing. You can sleep again."

"...alright"

Lina went back to sleep in the blanket. This woman was completely off guard, with no defense. If I wanted to kill him right now, it would be very easy. But, of course, I won't do it. I'm not a cold-blooded killer who would kill anyone indiscriminately.

I went to the end of the room for a moment, picked up a bayonet gun. With a bottle of wine in my left hand and a gun in my right hand, I returned to the balcony. Of course I closed the window, making sure the commotion that would appear did not wake Rina up.

"I didn't think Agade's security network could be breached this easily. I seem to have to talk to them. So, who are you and what do you want?"

I sat on the chair on the balcony looking to the left, near the window.

"It turns out the rumors are true. You are very sensitive to the presence of others."

From an angle that was almost covered by shadows, a person appeared. He wore all black clothes from top to bottom, only his two eyes were not closed. Not long after that, he sat in the empty chair. Between us, a table with wine and two empty glasses was ready.

It wasn't me who brought the empty glass, it was the man.

I poured half a bottle of wine into two glasses. After which, this figure widened his eyes. It's normal for him to do this. If any wine connoisseurs see me, they will certainly curse and throw an oath. What the hell am I doing? I didn't take one of the glasses, but drank the wine straight from the bottle.

"I don't know if the glass is clean or it's covered in poison. So, no, thank you. I'll drink right out of the bottle."

"You're too alert. I'm not going to poison the man who helped my brother. And, I'm feeling good about that 25-year-old wine."

The figure beside me opened the cloth wrapped around his head and face. She has silver hair with a soldier-style cut. His blue eyes reflected the night light quite clearly, ready to charm every girl he met. With an elegant smile, he picked up the wine glass, slightly shaking it. After being satisfied with the scent that assaulted his sense of smell, he drank it slowly.

"Looking at your facial features, I would like to conclude that you are Tera, Rina's sister. But I'm not sure either. It could have been someone else who was operated on to look like Tera, like before."

"I guess you can recognize people only by the eve of their existence?"

Recognize people from the air of existence? Is he getting as information or rumor?

"If I've met that person once or twice, yes, I can. But if you haven't seen him, forget it."

Seriate
