Chapter 75 I Didn’t Expect That Such A Kind Human Existed
Two days after Ethan went to the Garden to look for Ruby…
“Oh, my! You’re here again, Ethan?” Ruby looked at the blue-haired boy with sparkling eyes as she flew towards him. “Did you like my kiss that much? Have you come here for more? Fufufu! It seems that you finally understood how irresistible I am. But, as much as I’d like to kiss you, it’s not going to be free. This time, I want 10 bags of candies!”
Ethan looked at the little fairy who was looking at him with eyes filled with expectations.
“I don’t mind giving you 10 bags of candies, but why did the price increase?” Ethan asked in an amused tone. For him, 10 bags of candies wasn’t that much of a big deal, but he was genuinely curious why Lily increased the price for her kiss.
“Um, I learned this from Professor Njal, something about supply and demand,” Ruby explained. “I don’t understand much about it, but since my kiss is in demand, the price is also higher!”
Ethan chuckled after hearing Ruby’s explanation.
“Very well, but I’m not here to ask for a kiss today, Ruby,” Ethan replied. “I came here to ask another favor from you.”
“Another favor?” Ruby arched an eyebrow. “Do I still get candies for this favor?”
“Of course,” Ethan replied. “Let me explain the details first.”
The handsome young man then explained why he came to the garden, which made the red-haired fairy look at him in a weird manner.
“You want to ask if any of my friends are interested in exchanging kisses for candies?” Ruby asked in a dumbfounded tone. “Ethan, I didn’t know you’re like this. Do you think Fairies give kisses so easily? Also, am I not enough? If you want to kiss someone, you can just kiss me, okay?”
“I’ll give you 5 bags of candies for each referral that you give me,” Ethan said with a flushed face.
Truth be told, he also felt like what he was doing was scummy. However, he was really desperate to gain some magic during the tournament, and for that to happen, he would need all the help, and magic, that he could get.
“F-Five bags of candies for each referral?!” Ruby’s eyes went as wide as saucers after hearing Ethan’s offer. “I understand. Since you’re this persistent, I guess I have no choice but to help.”
“One more thing, Ruby, I want you and your friends to keep this as a secret from the other students,” Ethan stated. “I know that what I’m doing isn’t a good thing, so if possible, I don’t want others to know about it.”
“You will have to add more bags of candies to keep our lips shut tight,” Ruby replied. “If the price is right then we can keep this a secret for you.”
“Ten bags of candies for each fairy that will keep it as a secret,” Ethan replied with a serious expression on his face.
“Y-You really know how to strike a deal,” Ruby stuttered. “Very well. I will see what I can do.”
Without another word, the red-haired fairy flew towards her friends and started to whisper something in their ears.
Ethan noticed that the Fairies whom Ruby talked to would glance in his direction, making him feel as if his cheeks were burning.
A few minutes later, over a dozen Fairies flew towards Ethan’s direction and looked at him from head to foot. They even circled around him as if checking for something before they all stopped and hovered in front of him.
“Well, at least you’re not ugly,” a green-haired fairy said. “Ruby said that you will give us ten bags of candies for a kiss, but I don’t think this is a fair price.”
“That’s right!” another fairy who had purple hair commented. “Do you think we are country bumpkins that know nothing of the world? 20 bags of candies for a kiss or the deal is off! We will also tell everyone on campus what you asked us to kiss you. If you don’t want your little secret to be exposed, you need to add 10 additional bags of candies for each of us!”
All the Fairies voiced out their agreement, including Ruby, who momentarily forgot that she was supposed to be on Ethan’s side.
Knowing that his social life in the academy might suffer if the Fairies started to spread word that he was asking them to kiss him, Ethan decided to bite the bullet and agree to their conditions.
He wouldn’t be able to face the other girls in the academy if all of them looked at him as if he was scum, which would certainly cause him to experience trauma for the rest of his life.
“Understood, I will agree to those conditions,” Ethan said. “But, I will not ask to be kissed today. We will do it this coming Friday. I will also bring you all the candies in advance, so you will know how serious I am.”
None of the Fairies said anything at first as they looked at Ethan with a serious expression on their faces.
Half a minute later, all of them cheered as if they won the lottery, making them circle around Ethan, showering him with Fairy Dust.
“I didn’t expect such a kind human to exist,” the purple-haired fairy said. “Imagine getting 30 bags of candies for a kiss. What a bargain!”
“I know, right?” the green-haired Fairy commented. “I will no longer have to sneak into the kitchen to steal those freshly baked cookies. The last time I went there, the Chef made a ruckus and even told the Headmaster of what I did. Because of this, a special enchantment was placed on the kitchen, preventing all Fairies from entering.”
“What?! Such a disaster happened?!” the purple-haired fairy gasped in shock. “Where can we get our cookies now?”
“Relax everyone,” Ruby said and patted her chest as if she got everything under control. “Our favorite friend, Ethan, can give us cookies as well! You will do it right, Ethan?”
The teenage boy wasn’t able to resist the pleading gazes of the sweet-loving Fairies, and reluctantly nodded his head. As long as he was able to use magic, he was willing to become the Sugar Daddy of the Fairies.
Due to his doubled monthly stipend, he didn’t mind splurging a bit to let the Fairies eat all the sweets they wanted.
After all, they would help him charge up his magic during the Clash of the Manors, which would be happening very soon.
