Chapter 1414: Intermission 5: The Stalking Girl (6)
We were mostly talking about ordinary day-to-day stuff during dinner. Nothing serious, nothing particularly important. Just random conversation flowing naturally between bites of food and drinks. The kind of relaxed atmosphere where people talked simply because they enjoyed being around each other.
The restaurant itself was calm tonight. Soft chatter filled the air, plates occasionally clinked against utensils, and the smell of freshly cooked food lingered around us pleasantly. It felt comfortable. Peaceful, even.
Honestly, moments like this were rare for me lately.
Most of my days had been filled with complicated situations, politics, fighting, people wanting things from me, or trying to kill me. Sitting down and talking casually over dinner almost felt weird at this point. A nice weird, though.
"Oh, right. I forgot to tell you something, Leon. There are a lot of women interested in becoming your women," Charlotte suddenly said.
I looked at her for a moment while chewing my food.
Straight to the point as always.
"Like the sister of the man you fought back then. She has a similar ability to his. Pocket Dimension," she continued casually. "Isn’t that cool?"
Pocket Dimension.
Honestly, hearing that immediately caught my attention.
That kind of ability was absurdly useful. The more you thought about it, the more ridiculous it sounded. Being able to store things without worrying about space or weight was practically cheating. You wouldn’t need bags, storage rooms, carriages, or anything like that. Weapons, supplies, resources, food, valuables, you could carry all of it around effortlessly.
It honestly felt like one of those abilities that sounded simple at first until you realized how broken it actually was.
Imagine never having to carry luggage again. Merchants would probably worship that ability like a religion.
"I mean, I do think it’s good, but did you tell her what kind of thing she’d be putting herself through?"
Charlotte blinked.
"I mean, your cock is huge, sure, but she has a good body, so I think she could take it."
"That’s not what I meant," I said immediately.
"Oh, it’s not?"
She tilted her head slightly, genuinely confused.
So apparently, she thought I was constantly thinking with my dick.
To be fair, she wasn’t completely wrong. There were definitely moments where that accusation would’ve landed perfectly. Right now, though, that wasn’t what I was talking about at all.
"What I meant is... if they really decide to do this, then they’re basically choosing me and joining my harem," I explained. "They’d be throwing away their freedom to choose who they love, you know?"
Charlotte rested her cheek against her palm lazily.
"Well, I already told them that," she replied. "Joining your harem means they aren’t allowed to have relationships with other men. Though honestly, I doubt they’d even want to. I mean, with your magnificent cock, I don’t think any other man would satisfy them anymore."
There she went again.
Completely shameless.
A couple of nearby people visibly reacted after hearing that. One guy almost choked on his drink. Another woman quickly looked away while pretending she totally wasn’t listening.
Honestly, Charlotte saying insane things with a completely straight face was becoming way too normal.
The restaurant wasn’t packed tonight, but there were still enough people around that someone hearing her wasn’t exactly avoidable. Meanwhile, Charlotte looked entirely unbothered by it.
At this point, I honestly didn’t care enough to stop her anymore.
Besides, hearing rumors about me having a massive cock probably wasn’t the worst thing for my reputation. Weirdly enough, it almost sounded like some kind of achievement title.
Congratulations. Legendary Cock acquired.
What a stupid thought.
"And I don’t think it’s only because you have a big dick," Charlotte continued while casually sipping her drink. "Considering your status, it’s natural for women to flock to you."
Her tone stayed teasing, but there was truth mixed into it too.
"You’re involved with the King of this country, you’re connected to princesses from other kingdoms, and you also helped establish the Great Forest as one united country. Any woman hearing all of that would naturally feel her womb tremble, don’t you think?"
She smiled mischievously.
"I mean, hearing it right now is making Ella’s womb tremble too."
"T-That’s not true!" Ella immediately protested.
Her reaction came out way too fast.
Her face turned bright red almost instantly, and the embarrassed expression she made only made Charlotte grin harder. Honestly, Ella looked so flustered that for a second, I almost thought Charlotte might actually be right.
Ella quickly looked away while trying to hide behind her drink.
Failed completely, by the way.
"Leon, what do you think about Ella?" Charlotte suddenly asked.
Ah.
There it was.
She had officially entered dangerous territory now.
Honestly, that was also part of the reason I agreed to come here tonight. Charlotte had clearly been planning this from the start. Looking at the amused expression on her face now, she was enjoying this way too much.
"What do I think?" I asked, pretending not to understand her question.
Charlotte narrowed her eyes at me immediately.
"About Ella," she clarified slowly. "As a woman."
She leaned forward slightly, propping her chin against her palms while staring at me with a teasing smile.
Meanwhile, Ella looked like she wanted to disappear from existence entirely.
"C-Charl..." Ella muttered weakly while glancing at her.
Her voice sounded pleading, almost like she wanted Charlotte to stop asking embarrassing questions.
Still, despite acting embarrassed, Ella kept sneaking glances at me.
That part was obvious.
She would look at me for a second, quickly avert her eyes, then glance back again moments later. It was painfully clear she wanted to hear my answer while also being terrified of hearing it at the same time.
Honestly, it was kind of cute.
"Well," I said after a moment, "Ella is a beautiful woman."
The second those words left my mouth, Ella visibly stiffened.
"And I think she’s wonderful too."
That finished her off completely.
Her face turned red so quickly it honestly looked impressive. Calling her tomato-red almost felt inaccurate at this point because somehow she looked even redder than that. Steam might as well have started coming out of her head.
She lowered her face immediately, trying to hide her expression, but that only made it more obvious how embarrassed she was.
Honestly, seeing her react like that was adorable.
The way her fingers tightened slightly around her cup, the way her shoulders tensed up, the way she kept avoiding eye contact while still obviously listening closely to everything being said. It was cute in a very genuine way.
Charlotte, meanwhile, looked completely entertained.
"Oh?" she said while grinning. "So you think Ella’s wonderful?"
Ella made a tiny noise of embarrassment beside her.
At this point, I was starting to feel a little bad for her.
Only a little, though.
Because honestly, teasing her was way too easy.
And way too fun.
