Chapter 593 | Bad Guy!
Count Sirius’s face was very handsome, with soft lines, like a cute girl. If he put on women’s clothing, wore stockings, and dressed up seriously, he would probably be mistaken for a cute girl.
“Could it be that this Young Count envies this young lady’s dress?”
Verafia was startled by her sudden thought. However, the more she imagined, the more embarrassing and blushing scenes flashed through her mind uncontrollably.
A carefully dressed Young Count, wearing a dress, while a cold and beautiful elf maid, with a bewitching smile, used her slender hands to untie the long dress. On the messy bed, her cheeks flushed, and her beautiful body whispered intimately…
Or, in that red-haired young man’s room, the pure white moonlight smoothed away the blush, the soft silk slid down messily, leaning against the wall biting her lip, small jade objects were gently played with, and the pale gold eyes were filled with moist water, overflowing with happiness…
“Eek!”
She suddenly raised her head, and the shy yet exceptionally interesting scene spread, bringing a scorching blush to her face. She quickly covered her cheeks, shook her little head forcefully, and suddenly realized that the Count’s pale golden eyes were looking at her.
Verafia’s eyes flickered slightly. Wouldn’t this Young Count have seen through something?
“Miss Verafia, why did you suddenly blush… Are you thinking about something again?” Sirius asked curiously with a gentle smile.
“Ah! This, this…”
Verafia stammered, then suddenly lowered her face shyly. The blush on her fair and pretty face gradually spread. She clutched the hem of her white jade skirt with her fingers: “Because, just now, Young Count, you kept staring at me…”
Anyone would probably assume that the girl’s blushing cheeks and sweet tone meant she was shy from being stared at by the Count.
She didn’t want to talk about the matters between the two “maidens,” or the secretive matters between boys, otherwise, she would definitely be considered a perverted girl. How could she maintain her reputation as a Goddess Princess then!
As for whether Ig would be jealous and overthink things, she didn’t care!
“Is that so? Cough cough, it’s just that Miss Verafia looks so captivating in this dress.”
Count Sirius blushed and smiled awkwardly, quickly changing the subject: “However, did Miss Verafia choose this dress? It’s indeed a very beautiful dress…”
“Count.”
Ig approached Sirius. Verafia slightly opened her golden eyes, feeling a little nervous, not knowing what she should do if Ig really flew into a rage and confronted Count Sirius.
Before the Count’s confused gaze, the black-haired young man’s expression was a little troubled, but he still spoke: “Um, we haven’t paid for the Young Lady’s dress yet… Could you lend us some more gold coins?”
The Young Count looked surprised. In the castle, he had given Ig nearly a hundred gold coins, which was a considerable expense for ordinary nobles. Even the Princess’s evening gown wouldn’t cost that much.
So, Ig had to simply explain to the Count.
“So that’s how it is. However, it’s just an evening gown, it’s not really a loan.”
Count Sirius suddenly understood and looked at the shop assistant standing nervously by the side, clutching the hem of her skirt.
The young girl’s eyes widened slightly. She didn’t expect that the young man and woman who looked like stranded nobles knew the Count, and they seemed to have a good relationship… This was the first time she had been seriously looked at by the Count!
“Miss Suna.”
Count Sirius gave a gentle smile. “Please let me pay for Miss Verafia’s dress.”
Looking at the Young Count’s back, Ig breathed a sigh of relief. Before that, he had asked Ophi for money, and under the Ice Dragon Girl’s surprised gaze, he vigorously shook his head, indicating that all her gold coins had been spent on novels and comics.
Therefore, Ig had no choice but to awkwardly ask Count Sirius.
“However, Count Sirius looks very familiar… But that shop assistant seems like she’s meeting him for the first time…”
Ig felt a bit puzzled. But before he could think further, he felt a sharp pain as the girl grabbed his arm. He quickly turned his head and saw Verafia’s slightly raised and somewhat annoyed little face.
“Mmmph… you guy, don’t you care at all!” The girl’s little face blushed slightly, and she said angrily.
“Care… What does Veer mean?”
The boy’s clueless expression made the girl’s blush deepen. She slightly bit her lip, her golden eyes flickering evasively:
“It’s just, just… just now, Count Sirius was looking at this young lady…”
Although she had been a little worried earlier that her small excuse might cause Ig and Count Sirius to fight, seeing that this guy was like a block of wood without any reaction made Verafia restless, feeling a sense of being neglected.
She clutched the boy’s sleeve with her slender fingers. Feeling the boy’s gaze on her face, Verafia chewed on her lips slightly, her fair little face flushed, and she murmured:
“Even though this young lady is your girlfriend… but when another man looks at me, you don’t react at all…”
“Veer cares about this, huh.”
Ig chuckled speechlessly, looking at the girl’s flushed little face and the hidden shyness sparkling in her golden eyes, he feigned deep thought:
“Well, at that time, Count Sirius was just marveling at your beauty, and didn’t have any other intentions. And you, Young Lady, didn’t seem to care either…”
“Huh?”
Verafia’s small face lifted in surprise.
“However, later, Veer reacted like that, which is quite rare, a shy girl’s demeanor. Hmm, even I haven’t seen it before, it’s not like your usual self… Is it possible that you, Young Lady, are trying to hide something?”
“This, this…”
Looking at the girl’s raised delicate face and the almost unconcealed emotions in her golden eyes, Ig held back his laughter and gently ruffled her beautiful hair, pretending to understand:
“Hmm, could it be that in your little head, Young Lady, you were thinking about something unspeakable… something interesting that would make a lady like you shy?”
“Mmph!”
As if her shy thoughts were exposed, she forcefully covered her hot little face and cried out, “Ig, you bad guy, you always bully this young lady!”
With her exquisite golden eyes, she looked up and glared at the boy with feigned ferocity, but in those soft and moving bright gold colors, shyness was completely evident.
“Did Mr. Ig happen to bully Miss Verafia just now?”
After paying the shop assistant, Count Sirius walked over, coincidentally hearing the girl’s shy cry and seeing Ophi covering her mouth and chuckling, he asked with some confusion.

I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess?!
身为勇者的我竟然成了凤凰大小姐
From the travel diaries of a Phoenix Princess reborn from the inferno, chronicling her life on the road with a supposedly “useless” young hero…
On their journey, their fellowship continues to grow: a Dragon Princess of silver frost, a young Vampire Princess with eyes of blood-crimson, the Saintess of Radiant Holy Light, the noble Princess of the White Iris…
“Hmm?” Verafia paused, tilting her head as she gracefully twirled a soft strand of her fiery hair around a finger. A hint of suspicion flickered in her beautiful eyes. “Ignet, why does this sound suspiciously like you’re assembling a harem?”
“My lady, there is a saying: ‘The fish is what I desire, and the bear’s paw is also what I desire.’ A wise man knows that if he can have them both, his home will be harmonious and all his affairs will prosper,” he began, puffing out his chest with the air of a profound philosopher. “Is that not a truly beautiful thing? A… a paragon of peaceful coexistence?”
He faltered under her smoldering gaze.
“…Ahhh! It was a joke! I’m sorry, Milady, please don’t burn me! I swear my only desire is you!”
