This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!

441 Chapter 437: The Secret

Keith's fist and laugh came hurtling toward me. Look at this, the guy was holding back!

I decided to let him punch me for old time's sake and kicked him back just as his hand touched my cheeks. My cheek tickled while I lightly tapped the side of his stomach with my feet.

"OMPH!" A grunt rang out, in the next moment, Keith wasn't in front of me anymore. I turned to the side.

—BAMM!

A loud crash resounded in the air as Keith fell into one of the houses of the underground town and completely crushed it. All the people out and about in the underground town stared at me with great suspicion.

Keith got back up on his feet and spat out some blood.

"Young Master, moderation?"

"I was trying," I groaned.

"As I thought, Eugy. You've gotten a little crazy."

"I thought he was strong enough to handle that."

"Stop judging people on crazy scales."

I shrugged at Titania's words. I would be able to figure things out soon enough anyway.

I rushed in front of Keith who was still looking at where I previously stood and helped him stand up straight. My knight winced and held his sides.

"What the fuck, I thought I had gained a sense of how strong people were, but you're a little insane, young master."

I was not even using Stage Zero yet, but in return he had not involved his Ki either. Keith was at least at a Stage two to Stage three level.

The people of the town donned in all black kept staring at Keith and I.

But the crowd of watchers dispersed from the back as one man rushed over, practically running. His wheat hair fell to the sides as he adjusted what made him himself.

"Keith! Who is this person?"

"Glasses," Keith said. "Meet Mister Marizzio Martinazio."

So we were going to pull a prank on Glasses now? I tipped my hat and bowed.

"Hello Mister Glasses, I have heard a lot about you."

"What is all this about?" Glasses asked, his eyes constantly flickering back. "Do you have any idea how busy we are? Is it some new vampire you have brought as a believer, have I not told you the orders of the Dark Moon are inviolable?"

I wanted to punch him already. No matter how many years passed, Glasses had a strong talent.

"Please, don't be like that," I said with a heavy accent. "I would take just a few minutes of your time in private."

"He probably knows a very big secret, Glasses. You wanna hear this out."

Glasses was conflicted after hearing Keith's words. Even though he seemed to hold immense power in this place, he couldn't just ignore Keith.

"What is it about?"

"About what we are worried."

Glasses sighed.

"Follow along," he said. "Mister…"

"Marizzio," I said, following after him. "Marizzio Martinazio. I hold office in Daiban Camno."

Glasses took on a hasty gait and gestured at the ones around to get back to what they were doing. Seeing his word as an order, they all got back to their routines of cursing out some and complaining about the workload to the others.

"Down in Schwarz? You're from our place?" Asked Glasses. "Never heard of you."

"I try my hardest to keep it that way."

"By being useless?" He glanced back.

"Secretive, is what you're looking for."

"Nah," Glasses shook his head. "You don't be secretive. Not when the Dark Moon is around. We know everything about everyone who is worth knowing. Those who we don't know about, either don't exist or don't know about themselves yet."

He guided me to the back of the underground settlement. The place below was lit up in blue lights by the many many blue fireflies that flew around. Though it was underground, the place seemed more lavish and beautiful than the land above the ground.

At the near back of the underground toward sat a giant building, the only one connected with the roof of this underground town.

"In there," he said. "It better be worth it, Keith. I have a lot of work that I am doing for you in the first place."

"You've grown a big tongue," said Keith.

"I am sorry, I was just trying to get into the role, sir."

Man, I just thought people were changing, wasn't I? All of them were still the same asses as before.

"I see you are very powerful too, Mister… Martinio?"

"Marizzio."

"Marizzio, my apologies. I would ask you leave your hat and your hang outside. For just good measure."

At his words, I quickly removed the white coat and hat and left them on a hangar at the front door.

Glasses pushed the door to a room and gestured at us to go in first.

Keith stepped inside, followed by me.

Glasses came in last and took the seat at the head of the room. Just like always, this place too was decorated in the dark. Black walls, black furniture, a severe lack of lights.

This guy had a serious problem with his brain.

"Right, let's talk," said Glasses, crossing his legs. "Keith. This is about what we were worrying for, you said? You mean he might know who amongst…?"

I leaned ahead and rapped the table.

"See, Mister Glasses. I know not what it is that is concerning you so much, but the secret I hold is still unchanged."

Glasses leaned ahead.

"Name your price, if its useful I'll pay it."

"Nothing, I don't need a price. I just have a simple word for you."

"No price?"

"Yes. It is a rather open secret, only you don't know it. You can call this, a revelation even. We're showing you a mirror."

"What are you talking about."

I reached ahead and tapped Glasses' shoulder.

"The secret, is that you are a bitch."

"What?""

I removed my sunglasses next and grinned.
