Chapter 231 – Orca
Night is Seris’ favorite time.
Because it’s time to confirm your love for each other with the person you love.
Even more so when he’s busy these days and can’t be with you during the day.
Today, as usual, I was going to have dinner and make love in his arms.
But today, his mood is strange.
In fact, not only today, but since the day the adventure party was disbanded, he has always had a bad expression.
He looks like he’s being chased by something that should be one.
But today was a little different from that feeling.
The urgent atmosphere is gone, but should I say that it seems to be in trouble instead?
No, I think I’ve almost made up my mind…
“Yoosung? Are you worried about something?”
Seris, impatient, asked him.
If there’s anything he’s struggling with, he’d better confide in himself. Shouldn’t we be a family when we go through problems together?
The only complaint she had with him was that she always took her troubles to herself.
But what kind of wind did it blow?
He held Seris in her arms and gently stroked her hair as he opened her mouth. Celis felt happy and she listened to him.
“Ceris, you like it when I hug another woman.”
“Yes, it is. Are you worried about that?”
Seris’ heart ached.
He used to have a hard time hugging a woman he didn’t like…
Still, he persevered for her.
But even that seems tired now.
Seris gently stroked Yuseong’s cheek.
“I’m fine now. I’ve enjoyed it enough so far, and more than anything, I don’t want to make it difficult for you. I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you sooner.”
She looked at the meteor with loving eyes as she stroked her cheek, and then brought her face closer to kiss her.
Yooseong put out her palm and covered her lips. If I kissed her like this, it would lead to bed. You won’t be able to say what you want to say.
“Yooseong..?”
Seris, who didn’t know how to stop her kiss, was a little taken aback. Yuseong smiled kindly at her and shook her head.
“That’s not what I wanted to say.”
“Ah… Then what is it?”
What on earth do you want to say, so you rhyme with her castle wall?
Seris waited for the meteor’s words.
And her voiced words that followed were quite shocking to her.
“If I fall in love with another woman… What will I do?”
“…Yes?”
It was such a shocking remark that Celis’ hair turned pure white. She froze as she stared at her meteor.
Yoosung waited for her while gently stroking her hair, as she had been doing since before.
How many minutes has passed
Cerys barely opened her quivering lips.
“You don’t love me anymore…?”
“That never is.”
A reply without the slightest hesitation.
Seris was a little relieved. Because she said that his love for her is still there.
However, the problem is not yet resolved.
Seris tried to raise the energy of the Heavenly Demon Artisan. If you are yourself in a cool state, you will be able to solve the problem a little easier.
Seeing her like that, her meteor shook her head.
“I want to talk to Seris, not the Heavenly Demon.”
“Ha, but that’s me too.”
“Seris.”
“…All right.”
The energy of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art that Seris had raised was subdued. Yoosung kissed her on the forehead as if thanking him.
Normally, she would have been happy, but now she was in a very complicated mood.
“…What if I fell in love with another woman, do you think I’ll be excited about it?”
Yooseong said nothing.
Cerys sighed and tried to speak.
All she wants is a physical relationship between him and another woman. She has never wanted to make an emotional connection.
Of course, in such a situation, it would be exciting, but I don’t want to lose the person I love just because of my sexual desire.
Isn’t it enough for me and Cara to give and receive love?
So I hope she never loves another woman except her and Kara.
… She meant to say that.
If only I hadn’t seen Yoosung’s sad eyes.
The moment he saw her eyes, Cerys realized everything about her.
Yooseong is already in love with that woman.
If Ceris asked him not to love another woman, he would.
And he’ll get tired of her selfishness.
Because it was she who forced him to sleep with her other woman because of her dislike, and it was she who made him fall in love with her other woman.
It won’t show right away.
But like the hands of her clock that started to slip, his heart would slowly drift away from her.
It was too great a tragedy for Seris.
“…I think it will be fine.”
So I had to be positive.
I had no choice but to allow Yoo-seong to love a woman I didn’t know.
Yooseong asked with a worried look.
“Are you really okay?”
“Sure. You know my castle wall, right? Did you already heat up when Yooseong mentioned another woman?”
Seris smiled brightly. Yoosung smiled at her and hugged her tightly.
“Thank you. Seris.”
After the hug, Yooseong started to put on his clothes.
“Where are you going?”
“Yeah, I have somewhere to go. I might be a little late, so go to bed first.”
“Go carefully.”
Yuseong nodded her head and left her room.
The smile disappeared from Seris’ face as soon as he left the room. She stared blankly at her door with a blank expression.
After a while, the door opened and Kara came in.
“Sister? Oppa, I’m leaving, but where are you going… Sister?! What’s wrong with your expression! Did you fight with your brother?!”
Kara made a fuss about her and sat down next to Seris.
Cerys said, still looking at her door.
“I’m sorry Kara. My sister must have made a mistake again.”
Again.
A drop of water ran down her cheek.
* * *
Kalita has a high hill with a panoramic view of the city.
A night of beautiful starlight.
A woman was sitting on the hill. After a while, a man came and sat down next to her.
“…How did you know?”
“I have been looking for him all month. I thought he left the city because I couldn’t see him, but I never thought he only wandered around at night. So I couldn’t find it.”
Orca didn’t answer.
I just look down at the dim city view and talk to myself.
“Honestly, my dad wasn’t a good dad. Because he was a man who only looked at success. We spent less time together and fewer memories.”
Recalling her childhood, Orca smiled bitterly. She laughed at herself trying to get her father’s attention.
“How much do you want success and send her one and only daughter to her magic tower before she’s even 8 years old? She asked her daughter who came back crying and said she would have sent her back to the Mage Tower right away without asking why.”
How sad she was then.
She was hurt more than if she returned to the mage tower and was threshed by her master.
“My dad once asked me to go out with him. I was delighted and went along. We went to see the city together, and we also went to see the flowers. Did Dad ride a wooden horse when he came up this hill? The scenery of the city I saw then was so pretty… I still can’t forget it.”
Making her vague expression, she soon buried her face between her knees gathered in front of her chest.
It’s because I cried and cried.
“I just… Wanted to be acknowledged by my dad… That was all… No one else would. All my efforts and results accumulated so far have gone to waste… Why did it end up like this…”
“Orca…”
Yoosung couldn’t offer any consolation.
Because I knew that even words of comfort would not reach her.
Wiping away her tears, Orca raised her head again.
“I will soon become a palace mage in Kalita. In the future, I will have fewer encounters with you, an adventurer. I’ve been a nuisance to you all this time. That too ends today. Thank you for that time.”
Orca looked at the meteor and smiled at her. Because the smile was so artificial, Yoosung sighed and blew a beetle on her forehead.
Right!
“Evil! You, what are you doing?”
Orca, who was suddenly struck by a strong night, rubbed her forehead and looked at the meteor with her absurd eyes.
Yuseong shook her head.
“She still doesn’t know what she did wrong. Let’s get one more hit.”
“…Just hit me. I’ll make you an electric roaster.”
Orca glared at the meteor, passing her current through her fingers.
Seeing this, Yooseong smiled.
“It’s a little more like an orca now. So why are you holding the dog form from earlier?”
“What? Dog form?!”
“You pretended to be a large group of people that didn’t suit you. She pretends to sacrifice and give up for someone. But you’re not that kind of person. You get what you want no matter how hard you try. Wasn’t that you Orca?”
“I never pretended to be a big crowd. What do you think I gave up? The process is kind of like that, isn’t the title of palace mage also quite successful? Give a lot of money You get a lot of recognition from those around you. What did I give up?”
“Me.”
“…What?”
“I mean, me. Didn’t you like me?”
“What… What, what…! My, why do I like you!”
Orca jumped up from her seat and pointed at Yoosung. Even though it was a dark night, her blushing was clearly visible to Yoosung.
“What? So you did that to someone you didn’t even like? Oh my God, my boss was a sex-crazed pervert.”
“Everyone, shut up! If you talk about that bullshit one more time, I’m going to get sick of it!”
As if those words were true, blue currents shimmered all over Orca’s body.
Yoosung laughed and got up from his seat.
“So, why are you talking like you’ll never see me again? I’ve been avoiding it for a month.”
“That’s it…”
“Is that it?”
“…Because you hate me.”
Yooseong widened her eyes.
Orca said, holding her left arm with her right hand and looking away from her.
“You, as you know, I have been mean to you a lot. They do a lot of work, and they do a lot of grumpiness. Also…”
“Also?”
Orca bit her lower lip and then continued her words.
“I threatened you… And did things you didn’t like…”
“What do I hate? What is it?”
“So… That… You know!”
On the contrary, Orca raises her voice.
Yooseong laughed out loud and approached Orca. Her orca stepped back from her, but he took her into his arms as if it didn’t matter.
“Uh… Uh?!”
She is very upset.
She was surprised and tried to pull her body out, but Yoosung held onto her tightly and wouldn’t let go.
Meteor whispered in her ear.
“You never hated me?”
“…Uh?”
Orca looked at the meteor with her eyes wide open.
Yoosung shrugged her shoulders.
“Why did you think you hated it in the first place?”
“Oh, no. Yeah, it started as a threat… Because you got mad…”
“That’s because Orca tried to cross her line. Didn’t she hate the act she did with Orca?”
“But… You’re not satisfied with what you did with me..!”
“Yes?”
“I mean, I saw it. Doing it with you and Celis… It was much more intense than doing it with me…”
Recalling the scene, Orca lowered her head in despair.
Yooseong said in a dumbfounded voice.
“Did you see that too? No, why does Orca like spying like this? Are you really pervert?”
“Who is pervert!”
Baek! Orca kicked Meteor in the shin.
Fortunately, it was wrapped in leg guards, so there was no unseemly rollover.
Instead, Yooseong smiled and met her eyes with Orca.
“Orca, in your eyes, do I look like someone who would do something like that just because I was threatened?”
“…Why are you suddenly talking nonsense?”
“Answer me. Do I really look like that?”
Unlike before, Yooseong’s expression was serious. Orca’s eyes fluttered.
“Well, then… You mean it was good working with me..?”
“It’s good because it was you. Because I like you.”
Likes.
At that direct word, Orca’s face turned red like never before.
“Ha, but you have a lover. Even two of them!”
“Why don’t you flirt a little bit. A thrilling romance. Is it good?”
“What is good!”
Orca slammed her meteor forehead into her own.
Yuseong laughed while feeling the sharp pain.
“I’m kidding. I came with permission.”
“You got permission? Really?”
“Huh. I had two lovers in the first place. Even if it’s three, it doesn’t matter. So now all you have to do is answer.”
Yooseong hit her forehead with Orca.
If you move a little, your face will touch each other.
He asked, still looking Orca in the eyes.
“What do you think of me?”
Throbbing.
Feeling her heart beating fast, Orca answered.
“I like you…”
Without saying anything first, the two of them closed their eyes.
Soon, their lips met.
