Chapter 276: Some Things Never Change
"Peaceful route?" Mrs Keller immediately asked me, seeing that I had a way out of this debacle. "Does that mean that you have a way of solving this whole mess without Nina going wild on them and building a bigger case for herself?"
"Of course I do...." I confidently said, which made Mrs Keller look at me with hopeful eyes, while Nina stopped moving around and looked at me with a doubtful gaze, like she was wondering what exactly I was going to do. "...But the thing is that it's quite a messy way of solving this, and I'm afraid that you ladies might not really like it."
"Who cares if it's messy or not?" Mrs Keller exclaimed and looked like she wouldn't even care if I committed murder if I could save Nina. "As long as you can prevent Nina from stepping foot in a police station, you can do anything you want."
"Isn't that right, ladies?"
Mrs Keller asked the crowd behind her, to which they all nodded their hands, as they didn't want to see Nina go away any time soon since they all loved her and treated her as their own daughter after so many years of having her as the little mistress of the local hot spring.
"Well then, since I've gotten your blessing, I guess I can go forth in making sure that these guys shut their mouths..." I said as I stared at the trio, who shivered when they saw me grinning and had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.
"Hey, wait a minute now! What about my opinion on this matter?!...Aren't I the main victim here?"
Nina shouted out and suddenly wrapped her arm around my neck and pulled me in until my face was pressed against her chest, that weren't the biggest that I had felt in this world, but they were definitely the most elastic and firm since I could literally feel her perky breasts pushing my face away.
I was enjoying the sensation of having her soft breasts cover half my face and wouldn't mind if she held me like this longer, since it felt more comfortable than lying in a steaming hot spring. But Mrs Keller wanted to solve this mess as quickly as possible, so she slapped Nina on the butt once again and said,
"Let him go, Nina! Don't make me grab the ruler behind the counter and spank you like I did in the past!"
"Tsk! I was simply playing around, Auntie; you don't have to get so angsty about it!" Nina reluctantly let me go while eyeing Mrs Keller who was always ruining her fun. She then looked at me and said with a confident smirk, "Do what you need to do, Kakfa, to teach those nincompoops a lesson, and if it doesn't work out, give me a holler...I'll be ready with a broom in my hand to enact plan B."
Mrs Keller face-palmed herself, wondering why Nina grew up to be such a tomboyish girl when her mother raised her just right and hoped that one day she would mature and change for the better, or at least someone who didn't charge into a fight at every given opportunity.
I simply nodded my head to Nina's straightforward suggestion and walked towards the resting area in the lobby where all three of them were resting.
All of them were on their guard when they saw me approaching since they knew that I wasn't as simpleminded as Nina and tried their best to not show it on their faces, even though they were already backing away from seeing that I was getting closer to them.
"W-What are you here for?! Are you going to beat us in place of that old hag after she got scared off, knowing what will happen if she lays her hands?!" The buffoon with a swollen face shouted while trying to keep a non-chalant smile on his face, which wasn't really working out since his lips were twitching.
Creak~ Crack~
I could almost hear the wooden pole of the broom breaking with how tightly Nina was gripping it right now, and she only seemed to be holding back since she was curious about what this peaceful and non-violent way of solving this problem that I suggested was, wanting to know if I really was as capable as Mrs Keller told me to be.
"No, not really...I just thought that your face looks so much more handsome, with half of it looking like a hydrated raisin, and I was wondering if I could take a photo of you as you are right now."
I said as I took out my phone, which made the trio raise their eyebrows in unison, not knowing what I was trying to accomplish by taking a picture of their ugly mugs.
"What am I, your bitch or something?!...Why should I let you do what you want?!" The man rejected my request, furious, knowing that I was making fun of his messed-up face.
And fed up with how he had been in the losing position this whole while, he decided to fight back a little. To do that, he looked towards Nina and slowly said, with a mocking smile on his face, as he took her figure in whole,
"Although I'm not interested, why don't you take some pictures of that green hag over there?...I'm pretty sure those pictures of her would come out great, especially with that repulsive green skin of hers that resembles cow shit."
"Heck! Even manure would be less disgusting to look at than her, whose very presence revolts me and makes me want to puke what I ate for lunch." He jeered as he eyed Nina with contempt, and his friends also laughed along with his antics, as if they agreed with every word they said.
I let out a deep sigh of disappointment after witnessing the guy who had kissed my feet looking down on Nina simply because of her skin tone and concluded that the clowns before me were racists of this world, which I unfortunately just found out this week existed here as well.
I guess some things never change even if you travel to a entirely different world, do they?
