Chapter 720: I'm An Off-Worlder
The room became so silent that I was pretty sure I would be able to hear a pin drop on the ground even if the floor was carpeted.
Everyone was just looking at me after I told them about the fact that I was an Off-Worlder.
Errr... Are you girls going to say anything? Why are all of you so quiet? This is actually making me worried a little.
Just as I was feeling a little concerned about the prolonged silence, Katsuki was the first one to speak up.
"I must apologise, Mistress... But I already know about that."
I blinked at her.
Truth be told, I'm not surprised she knew but I was more curious about how she knew.
She must have seen the look on my face because she continued, "I learned about Off-Worlders while training with Mary, Mistress. It was also deemed necessary for me to know about Mistress's status as an Off-Worlder a few years ago to serve you better. That was when I knew."
Ah, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that happened. Mother already knew so by extension, Mary and probably Sebastian also knew about this.
And since they figured Katsuki would be by my side for the rest of our lives anyway, then she needed to know about the Off-Worlder stuff too.
I guess I felt a little miffed that they told her that behind my back but I could understand why they did it at least... It's not like I told Mother to keep it a secret for me anyway and I low key kind of felt a little glad that it saved me the worry of having her freak out here.
Not that I think she would but it's still better that she didn't.
Hearing Katsuki's words, Lisa raised her hand, "Erm... I also knew about this, Aster..."
I tilted my head at her, "It's because of your Clairvoyance, isn't it?"
My Infrid nodded, "I saw everything with it, including the arrival of the Off-Worlders in our World which led to you, Aster."
"You don't feel weird about this at all?"
"Eh? Why would I?"
"Because... I'm not actually part of this World?"
She tilted her head at me, "That doesn't really matter does it? It just meant that you crossed Worlds just so that I could meet my soulmate! Is there anything more beautiful than that?"
Katsuki nodded, "Just because Mistress came from another World does not mean that your position in this World is reduced because of it."
Nnggh... You're making me feel all fuzzy right now, girls...
Everyone also turned to her since she was the only one who hadn't said anything yet and she definitely knew that everyone was waiting for her.
She sucked in a breath before exhaling, "I... I also knew about it... Aster... But... But I didn't know what it meant until now..."
I blinked at her, "What do you mean?"
"Umm... You told me about this before, Aster..."
"Wait, I did?"
She covered her face, "I don't think you remembered because you were entranced by my song that time... You mentioned about you being outside of this World but I thought you were just saying that you were special beyond this World... And I agreed that you were indeed special beyond this World so I thought nothing of it..."
Err... Ok, now that she mentioned it... I think I might have a vague recollection of that happening...
"Am I not supposed to know before tonight, Aster?" Delmare asked, clearly worried.
I shook my head, "No, no, it's ok... I erm... I wasn't really prepared for this to be the outcome... I thought that some of you might actually reject me or even stop associating with me after knowing I'm an alien..."
Odeta laughed, "Wahahaha! Wasn't it you who taught us to accept each other for who we are and not how we look like, Sister Aster? You are my sister no matter what!"
"And you are my Mistress, Mistress. Nothing will change that," Katsuki added immediately after her.
Lisa shifted closer to me while slipping her hand into mine, "And when I said we are soulmates, I really meant it, Aster~ Our souls are bound together where not even something like that would be able to bring us apart~"
Delmare nodded, "I think so too, Aster! After all... Ummm... I really like singing for you... And no one else... So... Umm... I'll continue doing my best!"
Tiara smiled at me, "I don't believe there's anyone else in this World that would like cookies as much as I do aside from you, Aster. And I'm happy to share that with you."
Emilia twirled a finger in her hair, "You're also my boss now, Aster. You should be more confident in yourself. Not to mention the fact that you also saved my life too and I... I like... Ahem... I like the arrangement that we have so far."
Ngghhh!! You girls really are just too cuuuute! I can't take it anymore! That's it! I'm doing what I've been holding myself back from doing all this while!!
I jumped onto them and first started groping Odeta's abs before I went ahead to fluff Katsuki's tail. Right after that I went on to grope Lisa and Delmare's boobs before sharing a small cookie with Tiara.
Once I was done with all of them, I turned my sights to Emilia who had already retreated to the edge of the bed.
"No, wait! Not that!! I did not agree to this!" She protested.
"Girls..." I called out, unleashing everyone to rush towards her and hold her down on the bed.
Muahahaha! You can't escape from me Emilia! It's time for me to head pat you and fondle your ears!!
