Chapter 762: I Am A Boy, You Are A Girl, Can I Make It Anymore Obvious? [Part 1]
“What are you dozing off for, Ethan?” Professor Barret asked. “Everyone already has their bracelets. Take yours as well.”
“Sorry, Professor,” Ethan apologized and hurriedly took a bracelet made of black bone.
Ethan wondered what kind of bones were used to create these bracelets, but since this was not the time and place to ask them, he decided to keep silent for a while.
“Does everyone have their bracelets?” Professor Rinehart asked.
“”Yes!””>
“Good,” Professor Rinehart nodded. “Wear them at all times. Last but not the least, make sure that you don’t tell anyone what you have heard here today. I’ll see you all on Monday. Everyone is dismissed.”
Ethan and the rest left the Brynhildr Tower together but parted ways after exiting its halls.
But just as he was about to return to Dud Manor with his lovers, Nicole approached him with a smile.
The young man already knew why Nicole approached him and nodded his head in
understanding.
Lily, Chloe, Lilian, and Emma, who had been told what Ethan had seen inside the Painting of Enlightenment, looked at Nicole with sad expressions on their faces, making the pink-haired beauty blink in confusion.
“Why are you all looking at me as if I’m about to die?” Nicole asked in a teasing tone. “Well, sometimes I do feel like dying, but I’m very stubborn, so I cling to life with every fiber of my being.”
Nicole then playfully grabbed Ethan’s arm and winked at his lovers.
“I’ll be borrowing him for a bit,” Nicole stated. “Don’t worry. I’ll make sure to return him in one piece.”
Nicole had done this to Ethan countless times, and the young man didn’t even react back then. But now, a slight tinge of red crept up his face as he felt Nicole’s chest press over his arm.
“Good luck, Ethan,” Lily said. “Please do your best to help Nicole.”
“Understood,” Ethan replied. “I’ll see you later at the Manor.”
Without another word, the young man walked toward the Library with Nicole.
He still didn’t know if he should tell her about what he saw inside the painting.
But depending on how their session would end today, he might open up a bit and tell her the things that he had been keeping inside his head ever since he left the world of the painting behind.
“Where are we going?” Nicole asked when she saw the Library in the distance. “Don’t tell me we are going to do it there? I didn’t know you had that kind of preference.”
“We’re not going inside the Library,” Ethan replied. “We are going behind it.”
Nicole smirked because she knew what was behind the Library.
A small grove of trees grew there.
Although she liked a more private setting for her cold therapy sessions with Ethan, she didn’t mind doing it out in the open.
But contrary to what she expected, Ethan lightly knocked on the trunk of a tree in front of them, and a door opened.
Nicole, who knew that there were many hidden secrets in Brynhildr Academy, thought that Ethan had discovered one of those secrets and took her there.
After entering the secret door, she found herself in a cozy cabin made up of wood.
“Nice hideout,” Nicole commented. “I didn’t know that something like this existed in the grove of trees behind the Library.”
“Let’s go to the second floor,” Ethan said as he gently pulled Nicole’s hand, guiding her to the Master Bedroom, where he would help warm her up from the cold that was eating up her heart.
Ethan removed his shoes before lying on the bed.
He then patted the place beside him, telling Nicole that she should lie as well.
Nicole nodded in understanding and also took off her shoes before laying on the bed with Ethan.
Just like always, the young man hugged her close to him, allowing his warmth to seep into her body.
But it only took Nicole half a minute to realize that something was very different from the usual cold therapy sessions that they had.
‘His heart is beating so fast,’ Nicole thought. ‘His body is also warmer than usual.’
Since her head was resting on Ethan’s chest, he could feel his heartbeat getting faster, which didn’t happen in the past.
“Hey, is something wrong?” Nicole asked as she placed her hand on Ethan’s forehead. “Are you feeling unwell? You’re really hot right now.”
“I’m fine,” Ethan replied. “I’m just…”
“Just?” Nicole arched an eyebrow.
“I am a boy, you are a girl,” Ethan said, doing his best to keep a calm expression on his face. “Can I make it any more obvious?”
Nicole blinked once, then twice before a giggle escaped her lips.
“Well, thank you for stating the obvious,” Nicole replied. “Geez, have you been seeing me as
a boy all this time? No wonder you’re so indifferent whenever we are together.
“Did something happen during the week you went missing from the academy? Why the sudden change in perception?”
Nicole pressed her body closer to Ethan as if teasing him.
However, that was a bad move because she hit something hard on the lower part of his body, which made her turn stiff.
The playfulness in Nicole’s face disappeared the moment she realized that Ethan was reacting strongly to her, which was something that never happened in the past.
“Ethan, what happened to you?” Nicole asked in a solemn tone, no longer trying to be mischievous. “Tell me.”
The young man sighed as he weighed the pros and cons of answering Nicole’s question.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it might be better for his best friend to know what happened to him.
That way, she would understand why he was reacting so strongly to her touch, her voice, as well as the fragrance that was currently reminding Ethan about that sinful time when he had embraced Nicole in the Painting of Enlightenment.
“What I am going to tell you might be hard to believe, but I swear that everything that I tell you is the truth,” Ethan said. “No. I think it is better if you see it for yourself.”
Ethan then lightly pressed his forehead over Nicole’s forehead and activated the memory sharing that he had unlocked as part of Mimir’s Legacy.
He didn’t know how Nicole would react to the truth, but he decided that this was the best course of action to take so that there would be no awkward moments between them. Perhaps once she understood, the two of them could work out a compromise on how he could help her better when it came to dealing with the Legacy that was slowly eating her life away.
