Bab 1171: -1156- Please grant my wish
"Pfft!"
When La Folia's astonishing words reached Rozen's ears, he was in the middle of drinking and his eyes widened instantly, causing him to inadvertently spray all the drink out of his mouth.
"Ara—."
La Folia, sitting across from Rozen, remained unfazed as she tilted her head to the side, allowing the spray of drink to miss her completely and instead scatter into the empty space behind her, displaying unexpectedly agile reflexes.
No, perhaps La Folia had anticipated this turn of events and managed to avoid it in time, hadn't she?
"Cough cough...!"
Rozen was choking from the sudden spray, nearly coughing up all the air from his lungs.
"Here, take this handkerchief."
La Folia remained calm, handing the handkerchief to Rozen.
"T-Thank... Thank you..."
Rozen reflexively accepted the handkerchief but then quickly realized his mistake and slapped it onto the table.
"No! Is it the right time for you to calmly hand me a handkerchief!?"
Rozen couldn't help but raise his voice.
"Is there something strange about it?" La Folia looked genuinely puzzled.
"What do you mean something strange...?" Rozen felt like his sanity was about to implode as he interrogated La Folia, "Why do you think what you just said isn't strange?"
"What's so strange about it?" La Folia replied calmly, "Isn't kissing between a man and a woman a form of intimacy? Isn't that the case in this country?"
"Well, yes, but only between couples," Rozen pressed his temples, questioning from the depths of his heart, "And do you think we're a couple?"
"We..." La Folia gazed at Rozen, then, as if feeling shy, she hesitated, "If it doesn't bother you, I wouldn't mind..."
"That's enough!" Rozen had a headache for real now. He stopped La Folia from speaking further and expressed his frustration, "If you keep going like this, I feel like my character is going to break down. Also, isn't it a bit weird for you to be shy about becoming a couple?"
Would someone who calmly proposes a kiss suddenly feel shy about being in a relationship?
The order seems mixed up, doesn't it?
La Folia seemed completely oblivious to this self-awareness, looking at Rozen with a teasing glint in her eye.
"Judging by your reaction, have you really never kissed a girl before?"
La Folia's words hit Rozen right in the heart.
Rozen was left speechless.
"Ahaha, it seems I guessed right," La Folia said, surprised and pleased.
"I thought that if it were you, you must have had some experience," not only La Folia thought so, but many others did too.
After all, with so many girls around Rozen, he could easily seduce one after another, even changing partners every day.
A man with such qualifications, surprisingly, hadn't even kissed a girl, no wonder La Folia acted like this.
Even this La Folia didn't know that in addition to this world, Rozen was in the same situation in other worlds.
There were many girls around him, but not one of them could cross that line and form a real relationship with Rozen, so much so that Rozen had lived for decades, and yet had never experienced a real kiss.
It's not that Rozen didn't have that desire; he just wasn't too eager for it.
"Well, that's actually a good thing," La Folia commented with interest.
"Even the most outstanding boy, if he just hopes to do that kind of stuff with a girl all the time, it would be repulsive. You appreciate the beauty of girls without any impure thoughts. Perhaps that's why so many girls feel comfortable being close to you without reservation."
La Folia's words surprisingly made sense.
At least, a girl like La Folia, with impeccable looks and figure, would inevitably make most boys entertain some impure thoughts upon seeing her, but Rozen never looked at girls with such eyes, and the girls would naturally feel relieved.
However...
"A boy who is too harmless can also prevent girls from developing romantic feelings. If it weren't for you being exceptionally outstanding and extraordinary, your way of treating girls would only make them see you as a friend or a confidante, you know?"
La Folia smiled meaningfully.
"Sometimes, girls also hope that the boys they like can be more eager for them, just like me."
With that, La Folia actually got up, changed seats, and sat down next to Rozen.
Moreover, she sat very close to him.
Rozen instinctively wanted to move away, but he was held back by La Folia, who grabbed his arm.
"Am I really not charming enough?" La Folia said somewhat sadly.
This was really pushing the boundaries.
Wasn't it against the rules to say such things with a face that resembled a goddess?
"I mean, come on, stop joking around, La Folia," Rozen chuckled bitterly.
Unfortunately...
"What if I say I'm serious?" La Folia stared straight at Rozen, her pair of ice-blue eyes shimmering slightly like stars.
Inside, there was an emotion that Rozen couldn't understand.
With this emotion, La Folia continued.
"Rather than giving my lips to a man I don't know except for his family background, I'd prefer to give them to someone I like."
La Folia looked directly at Rozen, her tone unexpectedly sincere.
"Can't you let me experience true love?" she expressed her wish in this way.
This girl had everything, except for freedom.
That's why she was so carefree, ignoring the obstacles and troubles of others, shaking off everyone else, and enjoying the novelty and things of the outside world.
Now, La Folia also wanted to taste the flavor of love, which was why she made such a request.
As this princess said, isn't it natural to prefer giving her lips to someone she likes rather than being intimate with a stranger?
And there was one thing that had to be said.
"Having lived in this world for over a decade, you are the only man I have ever found attractive."
La Folia confessed.
"Therefore, for me, this might really be the last chance to fulfill my wish."
So...
"Please grant my wish."
As soon as she finished speaking, La Folia lifted her head towards Rozen, closed her eyes, parted her lips slightly, and waited quietly.
There was no need to think too much about what she was waiting for.
Seeing this vulnerable face presented in front of him, Rozen's heart finally began to beat uncontrollably.
Internally, he was struggling as well.
Should he or shouldn't he kiss her?
Rozen was caught in a dilemma of happiness.
