Chapter 94 – Seris Didn’t Know…(3)
“Ah, sister, get away! There is no place for me!”
“Hee hee.”
“Sister!”
“Hee hee.”
Even when Kara screamed, Ceris refused to let go. The two of them were about to fight again, but Kara’s wooden sword came into Yooseong’s eyes.
“Kara, why are you holding her wooden sword?”
“Huh..? Ah, this… Uh… The sword! I want to practice swordsmanship!”
“On this late night?”
“It’s a bit like doing it at night, isn’t it? I thought so too.”
Kara flung her wooden sword into her room. Yuseong looked at it with doubtful eyes.
“You didn’t mean to fight, did you?”
Seris and Kara trembled. If you get caught fighting, you’ll be in each room for a week. The two shook their heads left and right like crazy.
“You’re fighting. It can’t be. Isn’t that Kara?”
“Of course. How close I am to my sister!”
She looked into his eyes and said as if to trust him.
“…Okay. Let it be.”
It looked like he was trying to fight, but Yooseong decided to let it go. It wasn’t really a fight, because right now he was tired.
Yooseong separated the two and sat down in a chair. I thought I should drain the alcohol a bit before washing up. Seris and Kara brought chairs and took the seats next to him.
“Yooseong-san, how was the dinner you had with Amy-san?”
“Dinner? I had the smoked whole chicken and it was pretty good. Amy knows where to eat.”
“Smoked whole chicken? It must have been delicious.”
“It was fine.”
Even after that, Yooseong continued to say that the atmosphere of the store was good, that the drink was clean, and that it was enjoyable in the end.
“Let’s go together next time we have time.”
Yuseong said that and walked to the basin filled with water. Seris looked back at Kara before following the meteor.
“How is it? Wasn’t there anything you were concerned about?”
Said with a grin. However, Kara’s complexion was slightly pale.
“What’s wrong with Kara’s expression?”
“Sister… Didn’t you really feel it..?”
“Huh? What is that… Oh, Mr. Yoosung! Let me help you.”
Seris ran towards the meteor. Kara murmured as she looked at her back.
“You mean you really didn’t feel it?”
Kara recalled the image of Yoosung talking about her last dinner. He had a smile on his face as he remembered the dinner.
Yes smiley face
Unlike usual, when Celis brought up the topic of Amy, she changed the subject with an uncomfortable expression.
‘…No. I must be paying too much attention.’
Maybe it was just because dinner was satisfying. Kara turned away from the insecurities that sprouted deep in her heart.

The guest reception room of the Adventurer’s Guild.
Inside, there was Orr with a happy expression, the excited Celis sisters, and a grinning Amy. In the meantime, I was stuck.
Or, sitting across from her, placed the small box next to her on the table.
“Would you like to open it?”
As she said, I opened the box.
Inside the box was a copper pendant with a blue stone and an adventure certificate.
I raised my adventure certificate first.
At first glance, the adventure card looked like a business card, but unlike a business card, it was made of hard copper.
‘Isn’t it too thin?’
It looks like it would easily bend or break. I grabbed both ends of my adventurous spirit and gave it strength. But even though it was as thin as paper, it didn’t bend or bend.
Orga smiled proudly.
“Did you know how easy it is to bend? Huhu, there is no doubt. It has been treated with magic, so it will never be broken with moderate force.”
“Wow, really? Oppa, I want to try it too!”
I handed the adventure certificate to Kara. She held on to both ends of her adventure card like Kara did before and gave her strength, but her adventure card showed no signs of being damaged.
“Really? It’s very hard.”
“Really?”
Seris looked at the adventure certificate with the eyes of a native of the Amazon River reading a newspaper. She was a little funny, so I handed her my adventure certificate with her smile on my face.
“Ceris, would you like to try it too?”
“Can I?”
“You said Mr. Orr. It’s very hard, so don’t worry.”
“That’s right. It is very hard because Orca, a wizard in the Red Heart Adventure Corps, directly hardened it. It won’t break even with any impact. Even warping non-orcs…”
“Ah.”
Seeing the adventure certificate bent in her hand, Seris stiffened. He lifted her head slightly, looked at her surroundings, and reversed her adventurous certificate to give her strength again. Her crooked adventure certificate was straightened out.
She returned her adventure certificate to me.
“It’s solid!”
Except for Seris, the other personnel stared at her Seris. She hung her head down in a cold sweat. Amy, who was leaning back on the sofa behind her, said as if she was bewildered.
“It’s an oak.”
“Oh, no!”
Seris stood up in a fit of rage. Kara, who was next to me, also said.
“Oak.”
“No! Mr. Orr, I don’t think the magic worked properly on this one. Could you please check again?”
“Yes yes? It’s not… It was definitely hanging until I checked in the morning…”
Seeing the adventure certificate that Seris was handing her, he muttered as if he was embarrassed. I sighed and put Seris in her seat.
“It’s just that you are strong. You said you’re lucky because you’re usually strong, but why is it like that now?”
“Yeah, but orcs are a little…”
“Oh my, what’s up with the orcs? You’re not saying that the orc’s face is ugly, is it?”
Amy snorted from behind.
“It’s not like that.”
“Then?”
“That’s… So…”
Seris’ pupils lost their way and wandered. Amy grinned.
“It’s true that you can’t answer. I couldn’t believe I hated you so much just because I had an ugly face. You’re revealing her face more than I thought?”
“Because it’s not like that!”
Seris, who was looking at me, started arguing with Amy. It was mainly Amy teasing and Cersei getting angry.
I ignored them and lifted the pendant.
“What is this?”
Then, Orga, who had been looking at the two, came to her senses.
“Ah, that’s a present from Kalita this time to adventurers of the same level or higher. Would you like to follow me?”
Orga groaned and cleared her throat before opening her mouth.
“Light, with your power, break through the darkness that blocks my way.”
“..?”
“Hurry up and try it.”
As the spell crinkled and I stared at her, Orga urged me on.
She said countless times.
“Light, with your power, break through the darkness that blocks my way.”
“Han Yuseong, that’s not it… Huh?”
Light leaked from the blue stone on the pendant. The light is quite strong, so in the dark I want it to be brighter than a torch.
‘I got something good.’
With this pendant, I don’t think I’ll ever have to carry around a stumbling block like a torch.
“Rather than that, can’t you adjust the brightness of this?”
When I raised my head to ask such a question, I saw Orga tilting her eyes wide open. Looking around, the Celis sisters and Amy have similar reactions.
“What, why?”
“Han Yuseong… What did you just do?”
“Yes? How do you…”
Not knowing why, I narrowed her brows, and Seris pulled me. Whispered in my ear.
“What Orr said earlier and what Yooseong said were different.”
“What’s different… Ah.”
Could it be that what Orga just said was some kind of magic spell?
Did I just say that?
This.
“Yes? Mr. Han Yuseong, how did you do? How could it not be a rune language…”
“Tea, it must be an illusion.”
Seris hurriedly turned around.
“Are you mistaken? It shines so bright…”
“That’s actually… I muttered along the sidelines. Maybe that’s why.”
“Ah, I see… But there’s no way it could be done without runes.”
Orga said in a somewhat regretful voice. I caught her breath and asked her again how to adjust her brightness.
Orla kindly taught me how to use the pendant.
* * *
I took my pendant and adventure certificate and left the adventurer’s guild. On the way home, Amy poked Yoosung in the side.
“Congratulations on your rank. Hey~ I’m envious When will I be in the same grade… Shoot a congratulatory message.”
“Congratulations on how long you’ve been drinking. Just drink it at home.”
“At your house?”
“It will work.”
“Uh? Really? Are you really going?”
“That’s it.”
“Good. Then what should I buy you for a drink?”
Yoosung and Amy talked while going ahead of the Celis sisters. Kara looked at it with her disgruntled eyes.
‘For some reason, oppa looks happy.’
Originally, Yoosung was shy about Amy. But some time ago, her attitude began to change little by little, and now she treats her kindly like a friend. If you think about it, it was the day after drinking with Amy alone.
‘What the hell happened that day…’
What did the two of them do to make him change like that?
Of course, even if he changed, it didn’t mean that he neglected Seris and Kara. He only became kinder to Amy. However, Kara was madly concerned about the subtle change in his sudden change of attitude.
I wanted to directly ask him why he did that all of a sudden right now, but I couldn’t. I just asked, but what if it was just her grandiose delusion?
For that reason, Seris tilted her head as she grunted and kept it inside her. Seeing where Kara’s gaze was heading, she sighed as if she understood.
“Anyway, Kara, you’re really… Look closely.”
Seris stepped closer to the meteor. While she is talking to Amy, she pulls him and she falls into her arms at once. Yoosung stopped talking to Amy. He smiled and stroked Seris.
– Did you see it?
Seris said with her mouth. Seeing that, Kara was at least a little relieved. It seems that she was also unconcerned.
Another smile appeared in Kara’s eyes, relieved by her boil.
It was Amy. She was looking at Cerris, her eyes and the corners of her mouth drooping. Kara doesn’t know if it’s her imagination, but somehow the smile looked like a mockery.
My heart skipped a beat with the anxiety that had come again.
* * *
She bought a drink and returned home.
Amy, who had been there a few times, naturally went in. She put a drink on the table and took a seat. She pulled the chair next to me and patted it with her hand.
“Here, come here.”
“Why am I sitting there?”
“You have two lovers. If you sit next to one of them, will the other be jealous? In that case, you’d better sit next to me.”
“You speak well.”
I sat down next to her, speaking a little curtly. At that, Amy spread her booze with her satisfied face on.
“What are you doing? Are you ready for me?”
Amy complained as she looked at the Seris sisters who were at a loss.
“Go now.”
‘I wanted to sit next to you,’ Ceris muttered and sat across from me.
“…”
Kara, who sat diagonally from her, looked at Amy and me while laying down her drinking table. Seeing her quivering eyes reminded me of what had happened last night.
-Good. I’ll accept it. So what is that method?
-That’s right, you’re falling for me.
What Amy said was this.
If I pretend to fall for her, Sister Ceris, who is in her insecurities, will ask me to stop.
-It’s okay. Do you know if I’ve never thought of that?
– What, have you already thought about it? Then why don’t you do it and just mess around?
– If you do that, trust may be destroyed. Trust is the most important thing in a relationship.
-Eolssigu, then what kind of trust do you have now, will it last forever? I don’t know if it’s okay right now, but if you continue the relationship, one day you’ll be able to take a look at it? And that too, as it festers.
-…
– If you’re going to do it, it’s better to do it quickly. And why is trust broken? It’s not really cheating, you can tell me everything later. Well, after it’s over, the obsession will get a little worse, but that doesn’t matter anyway, right? Unless you’re really cheating.
It made sense. After long consideration, I decided to accept Amy’s suggestion. After that, I started directing to get closer to Amy little by little.
It seems that even Kara started to notice when it reached today.
‘But I’m surprised. I thought Seris would find out sooner.’
Rather, Celis just smiled without thinking. I don’t know what kind of confidence she is, but I think she needs to be a little blatant in front of her.
I ignored Kara, who cared about me and Amy. So the drinking continued. I ate the snacks I bought with the wine. We laughed and chatted in vain.
The atmosphere matured and our drunkenness gradually increased. Thinking it was the right timing, Amy suggested it.
“You seem to be getting a little bit drunk. How about playing a light game?”
Let’s play a drinking game.
