Chapter 228
Serena's POV
Right now, I made Fleur-san some homemade pancakes and a cup of tea.
After all, Dad told me that 'the secret of winning women's hearts is through her stomach,' so I tried my best to learn it.
"Thank you very much... this is really delicious."
"I learned it from my dad. Although I'm not as good as him, I'm still a good cook, so you can count on me."
"Heh~ so Serena-sama will be the one cooking, not me?"
"Yes, I like doing household chores."
Dad's friend told me that 'Although you can buy a slave, you can't buy their heart', so if I decide to buy their heart, I should do my best to convey my sincerity to them.
Besides, it's my first time with a person of the opposite sex other than my relatives, so I want to do my best.
"It's a relief, as I'm really bad at cooking."
"Really! I'm good at housework, so leave it to me! By the way, what are Fleur-san's hobbies or favorite things? Please tell me!"
"I will tell you the truth, without lying! My hobby is torture, my specialty is also torture, and what I like to do is interrogation! Because I am a Black Rose...were you surprised?"
"I'm not surprised at all, but it's amazing... what's a black rose anyway?"
"The name 'Black Rose' refers to an entity that has been controlling the underworld in a certain country for generations... Therefore, from a young age, we are relentlessly taught torture and how to behave in the shadows. If one cannot keep up, the punishment may be severe, even leading to execution. The title 'Black Rose' also represents the position in the underworld of that country, where it holds the authority to execute individuals above the rank of Duke and below that of royalty. By the way, the name Fleur was given in honor of the individual who 'bloomed the most among' the previous Black Roses."
"Was there someone else who called themselves Fleur-san too? Is that what you're saying?"
"That is correct! However, I have heard that there were only five people in history who claimed to have that name."
But... it's strange.
Why would someone in such a high position end up like this?
The world is at peace now and Mama (Ishtas) should no longer be giving Hero (Yuusha) or the other three positions to anyone.
Mel was the last of the four alive, and the other three are gone.
"I'm sure there's no one with the job of Hero (Yuusha) now, right?"
"There is no one... However, regardless of their profession, members related to the royal family such as the 'Hero (Yuusha)' carry that title. It is a country of heroes after all, so no one would dare to object."
I'm so angry... how could that person do this to Fleur-san, claiming to have the same job as Zect-oniisan... I can't forgive this.
"I can't forgive someone who would do such a thing to Fleur-san."
"That person is not worthy to make Serena-sama angry. Even though that person shares my blood and has been taught by me, they are a worthless individual who cannot even dirty their own hands or inflict torture. Besides, I felt in danger, so before being taken to the torture chamber, all the drinking water in the mansion was poisoned by me. It is likely that everyone has died by now. The Black Rose made a special poison with no taste or smell, which cannot be detected by inspection, so it is absolute."
"So, it's settled then."
"Oh... aren't you surprised?"
"My relatives are usually kind people but when they're angry they're scary as hell... So, it's not surprising to me. I think it's necessary to be that kind of person to handle such situations properly."
"Oh, I feel very relieved."
However, the more I look, the cuter she is, just like my mom or mama.
As Dad said, yeah, older people are cuter and more beautiful. I understand what he meant very well.
"..."
"May I ask why you are staring at me?"
"You're so cute and beautiful, I just can't stop staring at you."
"I am...oh, no...thank you very much."
Yes, she's very cute.
