Valkyrie Smash - Chapter 297 Difficult position.

Chapter 297 Difficult position.

Sam’s question cut her line of thoughts and it only seemed to confuse her more.

“I… think so but…”

“You are wondering how they’re going to do it?”

“… Yes…”

The Nephilim have committed unspeakable massacres both in their world and in Sam’s. No matter how much one thought about it, there was no easy way for them to make amends for their crimes. They either have to embrace them or allow themselves to be wiped out, and looking at their records everyone knew what would happen if they were pushed hard enough.

“Humanity has a history with those things, you know. I don’t think we have found any solution.” Sam said, remembering the state of the world before the Calamities attacked. “We simply decided that enough is enough and worked toward peace. Well, at least for a while. Humans will always find an excuse to kill each other.”

Now that they know Valkyries are reincarnated humans it was a bit scary to think about what they might do. That fact alone added an unpredictable component to the equation which might lead to everything going the wrong way if they aren’t careful enough.

“We have removed the one responsible for the war from power and their new leader seems much more reasonable.” Said Sam. “They also suffered many losses, including their entire world. That would be enough of a punishment for them, don’t you think?”

One could say the Nephilim have suffered enough already, but not everyone would be satisfied with that. Most wouldn’t count the misfortune befalling their foes as revenge.

lightsnοvεl “… What about the Olympian?” Miku asked.

“Well, I might’ve saved her life but she’ll stay our prisoner indefinitely. Did you think I was going to let her go just like that?”

Atropos was a brilliant scientist, one that wasn’t at all impressed by the pinnacle of nanotechnology achieved by Sam. Allowing her to roam around would be like asking her to make something and escape.

“… I thought you were going to add her to the harem.”

A bell chimed and the elevator door opened, but neither of them moved. Sam glanced at his personal Valkyrie who still seemed upset. Her expression told him that she was being serious, but he didn’t understand how she arrived at that conclusion.

“H-heeh? What made you think that?”

The truth was that Sam indeed had his eyes on Atropos simply because she was an almost exact copy of Nino. The idea of having a threesome with beautiful twins turned him on quite a bit, however he wasn’t about to say that out loud.

“Because that’s how the plot usually develops.” Miku answered with a slight frown. “Nino had her own story and cemented her position as one of the main heroines. It’s only natural that you would be involved with her sister, and considering Doctor’s boundless lust I’m sure you wouldn’t hesitate to make her yours.”

“Miku… where did you even get these ideas?”

It sounded like she was trying to predict the plot of some trashy harem webnovel, and looking back at their first meeting, that conclusion seemed all the more believable.

Ignoring his question, the young Valkyrie turned to him with a serious gaze.

“Doctor, are you going to make the Olympian your lover as well?”

Sam stared back at her.

“No.” That was a lie. “You really shouldn’t be basing your worldview on those trashy novels. A woman doesn’t just fall in love with someone because he was nice to her.”

“Wha-” Miku’s eyes widened for a moment and her brows furrowed in the next. “That’s unacceptable! How can she not fall for Doctor after he saved her life!?”

Her reaction added to Sam’s confusion.

“Do you want her to fall for me or do you not?”

“I… I simply didn’t want Doctor to accept her feelings, that’s all.” She replied. “It would be unacceptable for her to find happiness after what she did to B3.”

“I see…”

“Doctor, if she ever tries to confess to you make sure you reject her, okay?”

Going by their conversation he thought the situation was quite serious, but from the looks of it the blond one was just jealous.

“As I said, real life doesn’t work like that.” Realizing that they’d been standing in the elevator for a while, Sam sighed and walked out. “Besides, Atropos is quite prideful. I doubt she would allow herself to be infatuated by someone like me.”

“But you said she was a tsundere, didn’t you?”

He almost tripped on his own feet.

“You were listening?”

“Of course.” She replied without a hint of remorse. “I’m on guard duty today. It goes without saying that I should be prepared in case anything happens.”

Sam couldn’t help but sigh again.

“I was just joking back then.” He said and resumed walking. “Seriously, you should stop reading those books. They’ve already ruined your mind.”

Atropos’ reaction to being called a tsundere didn’t help at all so he saw where the blond one was coming from, however he didn’t understand how she could take something like that so seriously.

“I understand. But that doesn’t change my point.” Walking a few steps ahead of him she turned around and looked him in the eyes. “Doctor is a wonderful man so it’s only natural that women from all over would fall for you. Even the Nephilim are starting to take interest.”

Sam chose to keep his silence.

“Mjölnir is already head over heels for you, and their new queen had that look in her eyes the entire time you were talking. Working with them is fine, but no matter what happens you can’t accept their feeling. They’re the ones who caused us so much pain, please don’t forget that.”

Miku didn’t blush or show the slightest hint of being flustered and that made it difficult to dismiss it all as her naive jealousy. Despite how ridiculous it might’ve sounded Sam couldn’t deny that the young Valkyrie does have a point.You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

If his decision to ally with the Nephilim made it seem like he was stumping over the will of the Valkyries then he didn’t know what would happen if he were to start sleeping with the other side.

Unfortunately a big part of his schemes relied on the fact that Thor seemed to be interested in him. If he played his cards right and managed to steal her heart, the Nephilim would basically be under his control as well. That said, from the looks of it he couldn’t just go ahead and seduce her. His only hope is that his Valkyries would understand without him having to explain everything to them.

“I’m glad that you care about your fellow Valkyries so much.” He said, placing his hand on the young one’s head.

Miku only realized that he didn’t give her a definite answer after he walked away and that only caused her fears to grow. Sam really didn’t want his love affairs to be the thing that reignited the conflict between the Valkyries and the Nephilim, but it seems he didn’t have much of a choice.

‘Well, sleeping with the enemy can be seen as the highest form of betrayal.’ he thought. ‘I was never a fan of Romeo and Juliet but… I have no choice but to make it work…’
