Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 24 Cloak And Mask

?I was left alone for the rest of the day as Madame Rose and Cecilia both went off to take care of things.

From what I heard before they left, it seemed like they would be getting things ready for me to go to this demon order meeting.

The demon order…I had finished the quest line and it was one of the hardest quest lines because of how powerful the demons were.

If I had a choice, I certainly wouldn't want to deal with them now that I had reincarnated in this world.

But when I thought about it, getting into contact with them this early was also a good thing.

After all, if I could get some information on the demon order from this event, then I would be able to avoid them even better in the future.

So I braced myself to go and meet them.

It was just too bad that I had braced myself for nothing.

Neither Madame Rose or Cecilia came back that evening and even the next day, neither of them came back to see me.

It was only on the third day that they finally came back.

When they entered the room, there were visible looks of exhaustion that were on their faces.

It wasn't hard to guess that they had been running around taking care of things.

Seeing this, I couldn't help feeling sympathy for them. I poured two glasses of water and came over with them as I said with a smile on my face, "Welcome back."

When the two of them saw this, both of them couldn't help being surprised. They looked at me with strange looks, almost as if they were trying to figure out what I was doing. The way that they looked at me, it was as if they were doubting if I had ulterior motives for doing this.

But in the end, they still took the glasses of water and drank it all before saying, "We're back."

It was hard for them to hide the ghost of a smile on their faces when they said this.

After they finished drinking, they sat down on the couch in the middle of the room and just relaxed on it as if they didn't have a care in the world.

However, I couldn't help noticing that something was off.

There was a faint tense feeling in the air that was different from usual.

After a long time, they sat up and turned to look at me. Madame Rose raised the cloak that she had been holding towards me, as if she wanted me to take it.

When I took it, I found that it wasn't just a cloak, but rather also a mask.

This was clearly some kind of disguise, but why was she handing it to me?

I revealed a confused look as I looked at Madame Rose.

However, she didn't explain as she just said, "Put it on."

I was even more confused when I heard this, but it was clear that she wasn't planning on explaining. So with no other choice, I put the cloak on.

It was a cloak that was for a grown man and currently I had the body of a shota, so it really was too big for me.

Seeing this, Madame Rose gave a nod before saying, "As expected, it really was too big."

Then she stood up and started rolling up the ends of the cloak in an attempt to make it fit my body.

Cecilia also stood up, but instead of using reasonable means of trying to fix this, she pulled out her sword. Just one look made it clear that she wanted to use this sword to trim the edges of the cloak to make it fit.

At the same time, I could see that there was a part of her that wanted to make it seem like a mistake if she accidentally cut something she wasn't meant to cut…such as my body.

So to stop that, I quickly asked, "What is going on here?"

Madame Rose was still fixing the cloak as she said, "I have someone who received an invitation to the meeting my husband is holding. He gave me this cloak and this mask so that I can let someone sneak in for me."

I couldn't help being shocked when I heard this.

Madame Rose actually knew one of the demon worshipers and they were willing to help her over their devotion to the demons?

Why did I not know about this at all?

Seeing the look on my face, she knew what I was thinking. So with a smile, Madame Rose explained, "This person was sent by my family to watch over me, so his devotion is to me rather than my husband or even the demons. He had been trying to figure out a way to warn me about my husband and the demons, but he didn't know if they had gotten to me too. When I told him everything that I knew, he immediately came clean and helped me devise a plan to take down my husband."

I couldn't help being even more shocked when I heard this, but then I asked, "How are you sure that he won't betray you?"

Madame Rose finally revealed a serious look as she said, "You don't need to worry about that. I have no doubt about his loyalty because I have my ways."

I couldn't help feeling a chill run down my spine when I heard this. Still, I knew better than to ask questions that I shouldn't ask, so I didn't go any further with this topic.

I looked down at the cloak on my body and the mask I held in the my hands with a complicated look before asking, "Since you're having me try the cloak on, does that mean that you want to send me in?"

Madame Rose simply responded with a nod.

I turned to look at her with a serious look before asking, "Why are you choosing me?"
