I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive

4. One Person, One Day

Sure enough, the worst-case scenario happened: from the moment the “test” began, these two queens, identical from top to bottom and inside out, had no intention of giving me even the slightest chance to “sneak in.” Not to mention normal circumstances, even during the night’s rest time, they planned to spend it together.

Did Louise forget that we’ve been “doing that” every night recently? However, I soon realized: this wasn’t Louise’s carelessness. The Moon Fairy, who definitely exists among these two, had already considered the “nighttime matters” and chose to conduct this “test” against me only after preparing for the worst.

In addition, Louise had personally told me that the Moon Fairy was similar to a “mother” figure to her, and after seeing the two Louises happily tossing pillows at each other on the bed, this scene only made my head spin even more.

No way, dear mother-in-law, you’re really making this difficult for me!

As for the end of today, I spent it lying down, with both Louises—identical in every way—clinging to my arms. Sleep? Not happening. Except for the times when I just couldn’t stay awake any longer and drifted off, barely resting for I don’t even know how long, for the most part, I was just wide-eyed, staring like a startled deer.

Both women had their arms around me, but I still wasn’t good enough to distinguish which one was the real Louise. As for “that thing,” it was out of the question. Though Louise had suggested a certain “most convenient, most error-proof” solution from the very beginning, how could I dare to act on it?

A 50% chance of success—guess right, and I win. Guess wrong…

If I guessed wrong, I feared I wouldn’t see tomorrow’s sunrise. Why would I risk my life with such a “primitive” bet? So from the very start, I dismissed Louise’s suggestion, not knowing whether she was joking or serious when she proposed “that solution.”

And then, the next day arrived.

When I groggily woke up, the first thing I saw was Louise’s smiling face. However, this scene, which had almost become routine, felt a little off today.

“Good morning~ darling☆~”

The familiar sight, something I had been seeing every day lately, made me not think much of it. My hand instinctively reached out to the Louise in front of me. But the next moment…

A voice that was exactly the same came from behind me, as if warning me: the test had already begun.

I was yanked back by “another” Louise, who grabbed my face.

“What are you staring at that fake for!?”

Like a bucket of cold water poured over my head, I finally snapped to attention: the “test” had begun. From now on, I couldn’t just go by habit and treat every Louise I saw the same way. Right, good thing —if I messed this up… not only would the “test” fail, but I’d also end up completely offending Louise.

Just like now, with everything so real and so fake.

“Hey? Not bad, O’Clifford, after all this time, you’ve touched everything you’re supposed to, done everything you’re supposed to, and yet you still can’t tell the difference?”

The Louise I first saw wasn’t about to back down either.

“Don’t listen to her. Only an old hag would mock you with things like that. Clearly, she’s the fake.”

“Old hag? You mean yourself? I didn’t think you’d go as far as to trash talk yourself just for a test.”

Can you two just shut up? Until I figure this out, you’re both fake.

I directly escaped from the two Louises. Last night, I thought that after being a bit “calm” today, I could at least discern something, but now it seems that calmness is a joke.

As for the time that follows, the usual “little actions” I might do with Louise will definitely have to pause. I can’t risk my future on this half-chance lsp behavior. Of course, if I can’t do these things , the opportunities I can perceive will become even more remote.

To remain devoted to Louise while distinguishing between the true and false, this “test” is a bit too difficult.

I planned to slip away first, when one of the two Louises lying on the bed behind me spoke up.

“Last night, you didn’t make any moves either. To be honest, Louise wouldn’t mind~ Just like the Moon Fairy only starts your test after being prepared, Louise must be ready too, so… why not try the simplest method?”

“Forget it.”

I directly refused, “Although you both are the same, I certainly don’t have any interest in someone of ‘mother-in-law’ level.”

After saying that, I glanced out of the corner of my eye, but the situation was just as I thought: the two Louises wouldn’t expose any flaws due to this level of verbal provocation, their smiling faces still made it impossible for me to find any cracks.

Then, I don’t know if it was Louise or the Moon Fairy showing kindness, but I gave up thinking about which Louise spoke. They finally told me a bit about a “discernible method.”

“Alright, from now on, we won’t make it difficult for you. After all, if we act together, you might never figure it out. Moreover… given our identities, it’s unlikely we can always appear together.”

“So, let’s make a rule, O’Keefe. Louise and the Moon Fairy will take turns accompanying you, while one remains in a state of completing the Queen’s duties without revealing themselves. As for which day is which, we won’t specifically distinguish or tell you. It could be one person a day, or it could be several days in a row with the same one~”

“However, you can use your methods to distinguish us. Because, as long as you promise to follow our rules and not use your prophecies, we will no longer communicate the information we obtain from each other. In other words, as long as you continue to comply, we will give you some opportunities~”

“Of course, don’t forget, although our information won’t be shared anymore, the Moon Fairy can see into others’ hearts. This means… under normal circumstances, the Moon Fairy knows everything. In this situation, any flaws will be up to you, dear, to detect.”

“Because, when you notice the flaws and can accurately identify them, you will actually have the qualification to become a member of our great Yingtian Empire. Good luck☆”

I fell into deep thought.

“Weaknesses” are not hard to find, because just now I could already think of one: my only opportunity lies with the real Louise. She said she couldn’t understand some “secret” actions I took when alone with the Moon Fairy—this is the only one-way entry point.

But this is just a weakness; it’s still far from the Moon Fairy’s flaw. Next, I could only brace myself and continue searching.

Accompanied by… my wife’s overwhelming jealousy, to search together.

“Lastly, O’Keefe, Louise’s jealousy is quite strong, so you must… not do anything shameful with the Moon Fairy~”

The game’s difficulty has become a bit easier.

But… it’s just a matter of changing from “purgatory” to “hell” level.
