The Villainess with a Heroine Harem

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 

After listening to her confession, Emilia was much more docile as she lay beside her on the bed while Crystal embraced her, seemingly lost in thought.

Of course, the redhead knew that the girl was likely disturbed from her earlier declaration, and was more than willing to give her the time to adjust. 

In the meantime, Emilia freely admired her little angel's body as she ran a finger up and down her side, ignoring the girl's intermittent quivers.

The blonde girl didn't let her actions distract her, however, and her mind remained focused.

After all, while she didn't want to hurt Emilia, she also wanted to know everything she could about her. Loving Emilia regardless of what she was, and not even knowing what she was while being her lover were two very different concepts, as far as Crystal was concerned.

While she was waiting for Emilia to confide in her, it was still alright for her to be unaware. But since the girl had already taken the initiative to share it with her, how could Crystal not want to know more?

Curious as she was, the heroine really couldn't contain herself anymore, even though she knew that perhaps it would be better to wait until Emilia wasn't in such a 'drunk' state.

Facing the heroine's numerous questions, though, Emilia still answered them one by one with a smile. She found it a little funny how the blonde girl started with some minor things to 'ease her' before moving on to what she really wanted to ask.

The blonde girl bit her lip nervously as she moved her face closer to her lover's, as if trying to convey her intimacy and acceptance directly. "S-So, we're of different species, then... right? These are not just powers you've acquired by the way?"

Emilia understood that the girl was still worried of being misunderstood, and she couldn't help but smile and kiss the heroine's lovably chubby cheek. "That's right, I'm definitely not human. Why…? Are you scared?"

From her understanding, only the people born on this planet could really be considered 'human' to Crystal, as they would be of the same species. Regardless of if their appearance was similar or not, someone who came from another planet was most likely to be an entirely different species.

But even if she could still claim to be a 'human' in her first and second world, she would definitely be unable to do so after meeting Cynthia. That would simply be deluding both herself and the heroine.

Crystal shook her head quickly as she tightened her grip on Emilia's waist, pulling her even closer to herself. "N-No, but then… what are you, really?"

The question was immediately followed by a kiss, and Emilia gently reciprocated and nibbled on the heroine's soft lower lip before pressing her back with a peck. "I'm not sure how to explain it, really… an alien?"

Crystal's breath stuttered as she tried her best to keep her brain focused. Even though they were having such a serious discussion… why did Emilia insist on running her fingers here and there?!

Emilia blinked as she saw the heroine's face full of grievances. "What's wrong? Do you think I'm joking?"

The blonde girl shook her head hesitantly. "N-No, but… an alien?"

Emilia chuckled. "Well, what did you think I was, then? Maybe my cute little darling managed to come up with some interesting ideas?"

Crystal's face immediately turned red as she looked away. "I-I don't have such hobbies! I was simply waiting for you to tell me."

The redhead smirked as she pulled the heroine closer before brushing her lips against the startled girl. "Don't I know you well enough by now? Don't be shy, say it."

Crystal's face turned red as she squeezed her eyes shut. "I-I… I thought you must be a fairy—"

As her lover immediately burst into giggles, the heroine couldn't help but pout. "D-Don't ask if you're just going to laugh!"

Emilia stopped giggling before pecking the girl with a smile. "Sorry, it's just… I thought Crystal would come up with a more scientific explanation."

The heroine gave her a wounded look. "You think I'm a nerd, don't you?"

Emilia gave her a smile full of affection, leaving the heroine dazzled by its brilliance. "Yes. My Crystal is the most adorable, cutest, and loveliest nerd in the universe."

Crystal felt her breath hitch in her throat, and as the crimson-haired girl pressed her lips against hers, as if to seal a vow, she could only lament at the extreme lethality of this girl.

Maybe if Emilia's race of aliens wanted to invade their world, as long as they were even a hundredth of what she was, they could probably conquer them all in a day. Just a few sweet words and a smile, and most would be jumping the line to surrender.

The heroine couldn't help but sigh emotionally as she enjoyed the kiss. 'Perhaps Emilia also knew how lethal her real appearance could be, so she disguised like that?'

Crystal still remembered that the first time she had seen this girl, she had already been terrified of how cute and innocent she looked. 

Even though she knew the difference in their status and how much trouble she could land herself in, and even though she tried her best to avoid such an outcome… there was no way to resist this little princess at all.

Thinking back on it, though, the heroine couldn't help but be glad. Crystal had the feeling that even if Emilia didn't chase her as she did, and had lost interest, she would still end up falling for the girl.

And if that happened… Crystal knew how tragic her life would have been.

After all, without Emilia's help, she really wouldn't be as comfortable as she was. Whether it was her personal growth or the situation of her family, the girl had helped her far too much for her to ever be able to repay her.

Thankfully, with their relationship, there was no longer any need to think too much about such things.
