Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 226

(EP-226.1) #6

226 – Discovery #6

In the world I lived in, hair colors were largely monochromatic.

Black, blonde, brown, and so on— which meant someone with bright pink hair would naturally attract attention.

However, since this world was full of all kinds of different hair colors, people didn’t even think it was a strange thing to have pink hair.

In this world, the color of a person’s eyes or hair was said to be influenced by inherent factors such as mana, vitality, and aura.

Among them, members of the esteemed Angmar Family were proud of their blood red hair.

Their hair stood out even in the colorful gatherings adorned with various ornaments, jewels, and fabric hues.

Thanks to that, the princesses of Angmar were popular wherever they went like bright roses.

“Red hair-. It really looks like autumn leaves.”

“......!”

I, Theo Gospel, no, Theo Angmar was born with such red hair.

It was due to some twist in my magic circuit that I maintained brown hair. But it was evident that eventually, it would all turn red.

I had been concealing it through a special dye. But now, looking in the mirror, the roots of the hair growing from my crown were completely red, just like autumn leaves.

... I messed up!

「You have calmly judged the situation!

You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.

All job experience +5」

You really triggered right now!?

Of all people, I somehow showed it to the last person I wanted to find out.

Plok-.

Aira suddenly plucked one of my hairs. Then, she examined it closely before finally giving it a quick lick.

It was unhygienic, but Aira made it look so seductive that I felt embarrassed.

“W-why did you lick it?”

“Hmm, it must be the effects of mana. It’s not uncommon for the constitution to change as one moves through the ranks. Theo, your mana is red.”

“... Is that so?”

“Yes, red mana like this is quite rare. Perhaps the Great King David was among your distant ancestors, Theo.”

The Great King David.

David Angmar. The progenitor of the Angmar Kingdom.

He had a huge number of wives and children. That was also why the people of Angmar would say, ‘We are descendants of David.’

Aira’s reasoning was accurate.

This body was a direct descendant of David, the grandson of the Demon King Solomon.

Still, as Aira was now, she didn’t seem to have any suspicion that I was the grandson of Solomon.

But then again, how would she react?

That her ‘pet’ half-fairy had the bloodline of the vicious Demon King.

Even me, if someone said that my pet dog squirrel Keongkeong was actually a fragment of a great cosmic beast, I simply wouldn’t believe it.
