Chapter 35: Your Name
In the warden’s room, Leo was still thinking about how to explain these complicated feelings to Miss Mucus.
In the VIP room on the other side, the real Grand Bishop Kakaris, who was actually that maid, was lounging comfortably on a bed made of silk, playing with her hair and fiddling with an eye nearby.
That eye was displaying a conversation between Leo and Reni.
"Hehe, sounds like there’s not much of a problem, or am I just overthinking?" Kakaris sat up, stretching lazily. "But that young man named Leo, does he still have strong endurance, hehe."
Her clothing was very different from most of the Joyful Believers. She wasn’t wearing thin, transparent robes, just a large, snug-fitting nightgown that covered her body completely.
The robe nearly covered all of her body curves, with only her smooth and lovely collarbone and delicate little feet visible.
The doll of Kakaris, the old woman, stood respectfully in the corner of the room, completely still and without a breath.
"Hmm…" Kakaris tossed the eyeball into the old man’s hands, saying, "Let’s go check on the saintess at the prison and see how the ceremony preparations are going."
"Yes." The old woman took the eyeball, and her expression returned to its usual brightness. She coughed with her hand over her mouth and walked toward the door.
……
Warden’s room.
Leo turned to look beside him; the black particles of divine energy that had gathered around him since he returned to the room finally dispersed.
His anxious heart finally relaxed, and cold sweat had already soaked his shirt, with even his dark bangs sticking tightly to his forehead.
He sighed deeply, "Alright, Reni, the surveillance should be over now."
"Master… Can you see the grand bishop’s watch?"
"Well, I told you, my eyes can see many things that others cannot." Leo frowned slightly, "About jealousy… um, jealousy means that when you see someone you like with another person, it makes you feel uncomfortable. Yes, that’s about it."
"Oh~" Reni nodded, half-understanding, "Then I, um, really like being jealous of you, Master. When you are with other women, I feel very sad! I want to get rid of that woman!"
"Um… I think that goes beyond just jealousy…" Leo’s mouth twitched.
Compared to jealousy, Leo felt that the term ‘yandere’ better represented Miss Mucus’s current mindset.
"By the way, I’ve always been curious." Leo thought for a moment and asked a question that had troubled him for a long time, "Reni, is your personality, um, really the personality of the women you ate, or…?"
"I don’t really know~" Reni tilted her head, "Um, I think my attitude towards you should have nothing to do with those bad women I ate~ Anyway, I love you the mostest!"
"Is that so…" Leo nodded, lying on the bed, looking up at the sky through the skylight, "But I feel like your personality is becoming more and more strange."
The sky, though small, was bluer than any he had seen in his past life, and the soft, fluffy clouds changed into various shapes, bringing him a sense of calm.
"What’s wrong? Does the master not like it?" Reni mumbled, leaning on Leo’s shoulder.
"No, I like it very much." Leo gently rubbed her head.
It seemed that as Miss Mucus kept consuming those bad women, her soul was also developing and growing.
At first, Miss Mucus only thought of herself, without any sense of right or wrong, only following her own commands. Now, well, she still doesn’t have much sense of right or wrong, but she feels jealous, gets uncomfortable from being ignored, and even takes action to defeat enemies that threaten her without being told to.
The current Miss Mucus is becoming more like a slightly twisted girl.
Leo guessed that it was because the bad women she consumed were a bit crazy, and she became affected by their madness.
This won’t do… What if there are any "accidents" in the future, and Miss Mucus ends up using a razor to turn herself into Cheng Ge…
Once everything is settled, he must educate Miss Mucus on her thoughts, so she doesn’t stray any further down a twisted path.
"Master, what are you thinking about? I feel like you are thinking about me~" Reni lifted her head and playfully licked the corner of Leo’s mouth with her little tongue.
"Um… I was thinking, should I give you a name?"
"A name?"
"Yes, like names such as Reni, Lani, Ashley, and Tina. These names belong to others, not—"
"Like the name Leo?" Reni blinked.
"Yes, like Leo."
"Hmm, then I want~ Master, please give me a name~"
"Hmm, let me think." Leo licked his dry lips, "Our meeting is destined, and what we are doing now is fighting against my doomed fate, embracing an uncertain future, so… let’s use the name of the future from the three sisters of fate in my world for you."
"Skuld, from today on, you will be called Skuld."
"Skuld…" Miss Mucus murmured, repeating her name, and gradually, excitement sparkled in her eyes, "Okay, Master, I have a name now, I am Skuld!"
She jumped off the bed and danced joyfully in the room.
The dance had no training from anyone; it was simply a way to express her happiness in this moment.
"Hmm, Skuld." Leo looked at the happy Miss Mucus and felt a warm feeling inside him.
In this world, only she, only Miss Mucus, only the poet
Could Leo completely trust.
This complete trust was something Leo had never felt in both of his worlds.
"Master…" After spinning around twice, Skuld came to Leo with a blushing face and said, "Now that I have a name, can I please ask the master for another reward?"
"…" Leo’s smiling lips suddenly froze.
"This time, please… call my name…" Skuld swayed her waist and lightly rubbed her legs together.
"What a sin!" Leo’s eye twitched.
