BXBX NOVEL Chapter 71 71 – Rania’s Progress [1]
Afterward, I talked to them for a while and asked them to report their transfer to Sana or their higher-up. There should also be a Knight Commander of the church knight responsible for something like this.
I left the church afterward to meet the last person to join my knight squad, Rania.
Another thing came to my mind about Isabelle. Many questions lingered in my mind as I bit my lips, walking away from the church.
\'At least I have her in my knight squad now.\'
That way, I could observe her. And with this, I could stop her if she tried to do something. However, if she began to lean on me, then I would accept her.
Isabelle seemed to have a lot in mind, maybe a scar from Horizon Online. She even had (Severe Trauma) written beside her name in the status. That only showed how serious her trauma was.
\'Maybe I can help her with some potions or something.\'
Women in Horizon Online were dangerous. They were on the top list of things we, Players of top rank, needed to be wary of. Many of my friends had fallen to their traps, so I needed to make sure Isabelle wasn\'t someone like that.
If I determined she was \'safe\' to be kept around, I would proceed to help her immediately. If she wasn\'t \'safe\' to be kept, I would dominate her first before helping her cure her trauma.
Dominated girls couldn\'t harm or reject the dominator\'s order.
No need to rush. I could do it slowly.
Now then…
According to my <Presence Detection>, Rania was currently not in the Virtue Royal Academy. Instead, I saw the dot belonging to her walking through the main street near the Temperantia Academy.
Did she have a class at Temperantia Academy? She was just an instructor of self-defense.
"Let\'s meet her, shall we?"
A grin appeared on my face as I walked in the direction Rania had taken, planning to meet her when she entered the center area of Academy City where most café and restaurants were located. I could invite her and make progress today if it went smoothly.
***
Trying to find Rania in the middle of the walking crowd was rather easy. The combination of her white knight uniform that only covered half of her body and tight bodysuit stood out among the people who wore something rather… normal.
Her blonde hair and bright blue eyes filled with wills were also rare in Academy City. As far as I knew, only three people had this combination. Me, Rania, and the headmistress. I wondered if we were all connected, seeing how Rania and I came from the same orphanage.
Maybe the headmistress was my mother or something? But that would be impossible as I was a human. Then grandmother or great-grandmother? That was possible too.
Anyway, I walked in a different direction from Rania. She had a smile on her face as she hummed softly, her left hand was on her sword\'s handle, which was strapped on her left waist.
"Oh!" Her eyes widened in pleasant surprise as she noticed me. "Arthur!"
"Hello, Rania." I greeted and approached her. "What are you doing here?" I asked as I stopped in front of her at the side of the street, in front of a café I visited with Eliza on my first day here.
"I just returned from giving a self-defense class in Temperantia Academy. They called me as a guest, seeing how I have no class in the Royal Academy for 3 days." She explained with a happy face. But that suddenly changed.
She narrowed her eyes slightly as she put her hands on her hips, putting on the air.
"And you, what are you doing here? Aren\'t you in class?" She continued with a hard tone, like a sister scolding her older brother.
Well, that wasn\'t far off. No one from the Royal Academy or any other Academies was here, so she was free to act however she wanted in front of me. Maybe we should just do this without hiding it, as no one dared to reprimand me now.
"I have Paladin stuff to do in the church, so I take a day off. I believe a green-haired nun named Mia has explained it to teacher Emilia." I explained to her, and she nodded in understanding.
"I see." Her voice sounded a bit sad. "Right, you\'re busy, huh? I wanted to hang around like in the past, but I held back because I understand you\'re busy with your Paladin work. It was like that for me, too, back when I was a Knight Commander."
\'Hmm?\'
Could it be that she misunderstood something?
Indeed, I have been busy for the last few days due to Spies\' matter. But, I was not that busy compared to Sana and the others. In fact, I was free all the time and wasn\'t restricted by anything.
\'She arrived at her own conclusion.\'
So that was why she didn\'t talk much to me, even though I wanted to get close to her. She always only looked at me from the side.
"Actually, Rania. I am quite free right now. And I have something important to talk to you about." I smiled at her.
"Something to talk about?"
"Yes." I nodded at her. "Let\'s talk in the previous restaurant, shall we? I don\'t want to be heard by other people."
Rania held her chin thoughtfully for a second before beaming with a smile, "Alright. If my little brother needs something from me, I will help. You can just tell me the details, and I will agree to it no matter what you need!"
That was easier than I thought. She fully trusted me as I was her little brother back in the orphanage. Once again, I didn\'t plan to tell her and used this relationship to get her.
But just as she said, I needed to tell her the details. And I also wanted to make progress, so I extended my hand to her.
"Then shall we go? It\'s my treat this time."
"Oh? How dependable." She replied and let out a giggle as she took my hand. "Then please escort me, Sir Paladin."
"Of course, Knight Commander."
I played with her, and we began walking side by side. I didn\'t release her hand; I wanted to claim her as mine and let other people know about it too.
\'Let\'s see the requirement again to ensure I didn\'t remember it wrong.\'
---
Requirement:
1. Beat her in an official duel
2. Get her recognition. (Done)
3. Spank her butt in public 5 times
4. Win the annual tournament of Virtue Academy
---
I had already gotten her recognition, so I needed to spank her butt 5 times and beat her in an official duel. This was the requirement needed to dominate her.
\'But I don\'t need to dominate her yet. I just needed to make her mine first.\'
According to my understanding of her personality and my memory of back in the game, Rania would definitely ask me for a duel when I invited her later. I would use that to clear the first and third requirements at the same time.
\'I will be able to make such good progress. The venue will be the church knight\'s training ground, which is a public space. And with the church knights as spectators, it will be counted as spanking Rania in public.\'
The plan was perfect.
\'Don\'t worry, Rania. We will hang out a lot in bed in the near future. I will take care of you well, you huge masochist sister.\'
I glanced to my left, listening to her happily humming a tune as she had the most joyful smile I ever saw, oblivious about her little brother\'s plot to dominate her.
