The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

Chapter 349 Taste Test Pending



The heroine wasn’t one to make baseless assertions, obviously, and was easily able to list out why she was so confident about Emilia’s flavor and scent being close to that of an exquisite rose.

When her father had still been alive, he often brought home either a bouquet of roses or carnations.

Her mother was never one to let anything go to waste, and most of her ‘use’ naturally ended up in the kitchen.

Rose petals were a somewhat rare ingredient in deserts, and while it had been a long time since then, the heroine still remembered the taste of her mother’s cooking from her childhood. 

In contrast to their enchanting fragrance, the taste was actually quite mild and only slightly sweet. If made correctly, whatever cake or cookie they were used in would have an entirely new dimension of flavor, texture, and fragrance. 

Naturally, it also varied greatly by the type of rose being used, as some of them weren’t sweet at all, and could also have a fragrance that was too overpowering to be palatable.

Of course, with the dark-haired going on and on about how nothing in the world could compare to the otherworldly and heavenly feeling of intimate contact with her princess, all logical arguments fell flat.

By the time they met Emilia at the breakfast table, both of them were sporting prominent dark circles. And while there were no ‘sparks flying’, the ‘agree to disagree’ air between them was clear for anyone to see.

Emilia didn’t bring it up in front of Sam, as her big sister already seemed to be in a hurry. It was no surprise considering she had put off a lot her work to come to dinner early yesterday night, and there was probably a lot to be taken care of.

After the older girl had left, Emilia observed the two ‘arguing’ girls from the corner of her eye as she conveyed a few instructions to Michelle.

The short-haired girl nodded dutifully. “I’ll make sure to keep her busy till late into the evening!”

Emilia ruffled the hair of her ‘personal maid’ playfully. “No need to do anything unreasonable, okay? Just tell the housekeeper and he should be able to take care of it.”

Michelle blushed. “I-I wouldn’t do anything unreasonable.”

Emilia nodded with a smile, and noticing how her princess seemed to be slightly distracted by the blonde girl on the other side, Michelle couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

Ever since she discovered that her princess wasn’t actually a vampire, but someone out of this world, Michelle could clearly feel that something wasn’t right with herself.

Previously, she had been completely convinced that as her ‘singer’, or whatever the ‘best blood’ type of person was for a vampire, only she was truly deserving of her princess.

But now that she knew that wasn’t the case, Michelle was keenly aware that her own ‘affection’ for her princess was out of bounds, and it was even affecting her ability to serve.

Recalling how she had been bold enough to rest her head on the lap of her princess and doze off… Michelle couldn’t help feel a rush of heat everywhere.

Naturally, this couldn’t be allowed to go on, and the short-haired girl vowed in her heart to practice discipline so she wouldn’t let the beauty and charm of her princess sway her from serving her faithfully. 

After all, as the only personal maid of her precious princess, even if everyone else could slack off, she could not!

Crystal and Dixie’s strange actions continued even when the three of them got into the car to head to school.

In stark contrast to her usual lazy and ‘service me’ attitude on her way back from school, Emilia usually spent the morning ride to school quite productively.

If there was nothing to chat about with Crystal and Dixie, then she would either be discussing her plans for the day with Cynthia, or just looking up recent news to see if there was anything worth noticing.

Today, however, she had been pulled into Crystal’s lap almost as soon as the door was closed. Before Emilia could even blink in surprise, the girl had already buried her head in her flowing crimson locks and started sniffing.

And while the crimson-haired girl was still wondering if her angel was starving for affection, Dixie also lunged into her lap and started sniffing against her skirt, leaving her completely dumbfounded.

Cynthia couldn’t help but scoff in her heart. “No sense of self-control at all… at least you’re not that bad. Don’t they have any sense of time and occasion?”

Once she had recovered, Emilia could only shake her head in amusement. ‘Well… there’s nothing wrong with being a little affectionate… right?’

The raven-haired girl rolled her eyes in exasperation. “At least close the privacy windows… the driver looks like he’s about to have a heart attack.”

Emilia blushed as she pushed Dixie away to do just that, ignoring the girl’s aggrieved expression.

Of course, when the crimson-haired girl pressed the button to have the privacy screen slide shut, the two of them finally came back to their senses.

Feeling their embarrassment, Emilia couldn’t but feel a little amused. “The two of you were so bold before, so why so shy now?” 

Crystal buried her face back in Emilia’s hair out of shame, while Dixie just looked away in embarrassment.

Emilia smiled. “Well… I can’t say I mind, really. But the two of you realize that we have classes soon, right? We can always do this kind of thing at home.”

Dixie nodded demurely and while Emilia felt Crystal do the same, she couldn’t help but find their reactions a little strange. “Did the two of you fight or something? Why do I feel like you’re avoiding talking to each other?”

Crystal and Dixie turned to stare at each other in dismay, as neither of them wanted to bring up such an embarrassing topic in front of Emilia. After all, if they admitted that they argued about the crimson-haired girl’s flavor for hours, it would be more than just a little shameful. Even if they didn’t look like perverts, at the very least they would appear incredibly childish, right?

But now that Emilia had already realized their abnormality, there was no going back, and they could only regret their impulsive behavior earlier. Had they known things would turn out like this, wouldn’t confirming Emilia’s flavor be just as fine to do later in a more ‘suitable situation’?

Seeing them remain silent, Emilia sighed. “I’m sure my adorable babies must be like this for a reason, right? Can’t I help?”

Ruffling Dixie’s dark hair playfully, Emilia turned around to press a kiss against Crystal’s soft cheek. “I know that both my knight and my angel are cute little babies who won’t fight without a reason.”

No matter how embarrassed they were, however, they couldn’t deny Emilia’s eyes that were sparkling with both curiosity and compassion.

Believing herself to be more ‘level-headed’, Crystal decided to bite the bullet first. “L-Last night, w-we did have an argument, b-but it wasn’t anything major.”

Unfortunately, before Crystal could ‘ease the topic in’, Dixie had already panicked when she thought that her princess might think she was ‘hiding something’. “D-Don’t misunderstand, Emily! W-We were just fighting over what you taste like last night! She kept saying you taste like rose petals, but I know it’s not like that at all!” 

Dixie’s voice got smaller the more she explained, and in the end she turned her head away, mumbling with a furious blush on her face. “I-I… I-I know it’s childish and shameful… I-I’m sorry…”

While Crystal was stunned, Emilia only blinked in surprise. “That’s it?”

Dixie nodded in embarrassment, and when she felt Crystal do the same, Emilia couldn’t help but burst into giggles. 

The two of them stared at each other in shame, but looking at the gorgeous beauty giggling in delight, they couldn’t help feeling vaguely satisfied in their hearts, thinking that if they could see her so happy, wasn’t it worth it in the end anyway?

After a while, Emilia finally calmed down and squeezed both their cheeks one by one. “Really, how can it be possible to be so cute?!”

Seeing them look away again, she grinned. “Are the two of you reconciled now, or shall we have a taste test tonight?”
