WINIFRED
"CATCH!"
"I CAN'T CATCH! STOP TRYING TO HIT MY FACE WITH A BALL!"
"HEY, GET THAT STICK AWAY FROM MY FACE!"
Those snot nose brats! I can't believe they took away my only source of entertainment, I mean, my Darryl away from me. Now all I could do is watch them play, except I CANNOT FUCKING SEE!
"My lady, are you quite alright?"
"I don't know, Lady Freya. While I'm not the type to frolic around in the dirt like an animal, I would like my toy, I mean Darryl all to myself."
"My lady, I think your true thoughts slipped out there."
"Did it, now?"
"My lady, I don't think it'll be quite nice to stifle Darryl. He's your friend, I know, but friends shouldn't restrict friends. Darryl looks so happy right now. Having friends is possibly the best thing that can happen to a child so you should be happy that he has found boys his age to play with."
"I'm not going to be happy for him. He's always going to have the opportunity to make friends. I'm not. He's the only one I have and you want me to share?"
"I understand why you would feel like that. But if you suffocate him too much, he'd leave you. Trust me."
"Speaking from experience?"
"You never sugarcoat your words, do you? Yes, it's from experience. I thought friends would love you forever. I thought wrong."
"That's why you have to bind them to your side. Make them unable to exist without you."
"That sounds extreme."
"And yet, I have already achieved it. Despite the fact that I'm a weak, blind little girl, none of you can bear to hurt me. You all want to protect and please me. The thought of abandoning me makes you sick with guilt."
"That's…that's just being an adult!"
"Most of the adults in this society seem to think that people like me don't deserve to exist. But everyone in this house adores me, if I may praise myself. So, what do you have to say to that?"
"You are…terrifying."
"I have a feeling I'll be hearing that more in the future. But, I digress. Anyway, I would need you to get rid of those two."
"I'm afraid that's impossible. Their mother holds a high position in society so we need to maintain a good relationship with her, even if her children are a bit odd."
"Limit their access or something."
"I will see what I can do."
"WINIFRED!"
I soon heard panting right in front of my face.
"I felt bad so I came here."
"Go back. I certainly don't need you here, sweating worse than a sewer."
"That's mean. Don't you want to ruffle my hair at least?"
Tempting.
He knew I loved running my hand through his hair. I reluctantly put my hand out and I felt those comforting, soft locks on my hand. I run my hand through them several times, satisfied. It was just like…
"…Petting a dog? Stop treating him like your pet, Winifred."
"And stop ruining good things, Lord Silver. I can tell for a fact that this place was much better without your presence."
"Rude. You can return to playing, Darryl. I have something I need to discuss with these two."
"Okay!"
That comforting feeling was soon gone because of that annoying man. I wouldn't mind him having an enlarged nose right now, definitely not through my hands.
"So, I found a solution."
"To whose problem?"
"Lady Freya's. It's quite simple really."
"If it's intercourse, I will definitely be fulfilling some fantasies in my head. It includes me launching my fist at your face."
"A lady mustn't be so violent."
"Then I identify as a spanking rod."
Lady Freya erupted into laughter beside me. There was a smirk on Nathan's face as he watched her. The bastard was really interested in her. However, it was too preliminary to tell.
"May I say the solution now?"
"I am so sorry. I couldn't control myself. Please proceed, Lord Silver."
"Very well. The solution to your problems, Lady Freya, is giving me all that stray chaos mana running wild in your body."
"How exactly would she do that, Lord Pervert, I mean, Lord Silver?"
"That's incredibly funny, Lady Winifred."
"You'll be more convincing if you laughed."
"I am currently incapable of doing that. But I'll say the method of transfer before you interrupt me again. We can transfer the mana through magic circles. I'll draw one on my hand and another on her hands. Until she knows how to control the output she can give, I'll be controlling how much I receive from her. And don't worry, I won't be draining her of all her magic."
"Is there a way she can use this magic?"
"She has to first utilize her desires. I know Lady Freya is a modest woman who is used to controlling her desires. Such a mindset is hard to get rid of. Aren't I right, Lady Freya?"
"I suppose so. So you're saying until I can control my lust, I won't be able to use my magic?"
"I'm not asking you to control your lust. I'm asking you to use it. If you suppress that magic in your body, your lust will disproportionately affect you. But if you release it and wield it as a weapon, imagine what would happen to anyone who comes against you?"
"I can...do that?"
"Yes. Think about it. I can't help you until you help yourself."
I was sure that there were other more perverted ways he could've suggested if I wasn't a medium. But, in the end, it was solely up to her.
"And as for you, Lady Winifred, I have a special gift for you. Well, it's more like a proposal."
"I don't negotiate with terrorists."
"Just listen. I can help with your sight. But in return, I want your eyes."
"You...want my eyes?"
"Yes. They are a powerful tool. In exchange for your eyes, I'll give you mine. I think they will suit your far better than they will suit me. And by my eyes, I'm talking about my original eyes. So, what do you think?"
In the book the Advent of the Villainess, Winifred's eyes were the main ingredient to bringing her patron god back to life. They possessed powerful dark magic, a direct link to her patron god. However, they weren't the source of her magic.
Without the eyes, I wouldn't have to worry about the ressurection of the patron god. And if it was Nathan's original eyes, they would be a much better fit than the ones I had.
"You have a deal."
