Prisoner: Captivated by Two Lovers Chapter 1 - Leonardo
Will start to post Leonardo's JP story events here because of Ikevamp EN announcement. Please note that I only used a translator for this, so the accuracy is low. I also named my MC, Nefer.
I was drawn into the other side of the door together with Leonardo.
Leonardo: This is interesting
My hands were held by the man who had pulled me through the door, and by the man who was trying to help me.
Other Leonardo: Let go of that woman. She's mine now.
Leonardo: That's not for you to decide. Hell, we have the same taste in women, not just in looks.
Nefer: Leonardo, what is this?
Before I could ask the one who already seemed to have a hunch, the other one spoke up.
Other Leonardo: This is a different world from the one Nefer and her friends lived in. I am the Leonardo da Vinci of this world. I didn't expect another me to come along, but I managed to draw Nefer into this world. Now all that's left is to win Nefer's heart.
Leonardo: No, you'll have to get along with Nefer in this world. I'd love to say that but the fact that you've brought this woman here...
Other Leonardo: Yes. There is no Nefer in this world.
Nefer: But if I don't go back to my world, I'll end up worrying everyone.
Other Leonardo: You're a kind person. I like that about you. In recognition for your kindness, I'll give another me a chance.
Other Leonardo: Tomorrow is the festival. At the end of the festival, is a famous event where couples dance together. Let's have a duel. If you win, I'll show you how to return to your world. But if you lose, of course...
Leonardo: You want me to give you Nefer?
Leonardo can do anything but dancing is the one thing he's avoided because it's not his style.
And yet it's suddenly a contest...
Leonardo: I guess I have no choice but to accept it.
Other Leonardo: That's a good thing. I'll let Nefer decide the outcome.
Other Leonardo: I want you to tell me honestly who you had more fun dancing with. You can't fool my eyes, you know?
That night, I was staying at the mansion and practicing dancing with Leonardo.
But Leonardo of this world was so intimidating that I couldn't say anything back...
As I was thinking about this, my foot bumped into Leonardo's.
Nefer: Sorry. I messed up.
Leonardo: Nah, don't worry about it. It's time for a break.
Guided by the railing, I look down with him at the familiar yet beautiful scenery.
Leonardo: Sorry to keep you up late, even though it's already a bit of hassle just coming to another world.
Nefer: No, I'm not good at dancing either, and I feel more energized when I'm doing something. But you seem to be pretty relaxed.
Even the steps still look awkward.
Nefer: Do you really think that you can give up on me?
Of course, I don't really doubt his feelings.
I pretended to be angry and puffed up my cheeks, but I was poked.
Leonardo: I don't think so... I won't let anyone else have you. Even if it was another me.
His gentle narrowed eyes take on a slightly serious look.
Leonardo: If I look like I'm relaxed, it's because of you.
Leonardo: He took you without consent, and this was a one-sided challenge, but if I can win, I'll be the real man. Don't worry, leave it to me tomorrow.
It's not that I don't have any worries, but...
Those reassuring words sank into my heart, and I felt sure that everything would be okay.
Leonardo: We need to get something to eat before the match. I'll go get something, so you stay here.
As I was ploughing through the excitement of the festival, I heard that same low voice calling to me.
Other Leonardo: I wanted to talk to you for a bit, but it seems like you have something to say too.
Nefer: Um, why did you decide to make the competition a dance?
Other Leonardo: Don't ask such a strange question. I'm betting on you, so why not target your opponent's weaknesses?
(After all, he suggested it knowing that Leonardo is not good at dancing)
Other Leonardo: You think I'm a lowly man? I don't care. For me, this was the quickest and best way. I couldn't just sit back and wait.
