Chapter 255 – #58_All Darkness Comes From the East
#253
One.
I will have bought the clothes as planned.
The next schedule was to buy food ingredients in the food section of a department store.
Elroa was surprisingly good at cooking, and after training, she invited Siwoo to cook some dishes.
She was planning to treat Siwoo, who bought clothes for her, a nice meal today.
“Hmm… Hmmmm….”
Eloah put on a fluttering shirtdress and patted her shoes, humming her hum.
Next to him, Siwoo is pushing a shopping cart while holding back a laugh.
Eloah basically had a pretty stiff personality.
I don’t know if it’s because she’s not good at expressing herself, or if it’s because it’s a martial artist’s skill not to reveal her emotions in detail.
Most of the time she didn’t show her likes or dislikes.
Seeing that she seemed so happy, she could tell that today’s shopping was a great success.
Elroa, who had been walking around the grocery corner with high strides for a while, suddenly realized what she was, and she secretly noticed Siwoo.
She then stops her hum.
It was because the expression of Siu, who was wearing a calm smile, was reflected in her eyes.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Laughing innocently.”
In fact, it’s because she likes a puppy she likes to drink on a spring day, Eloah is cute, but it’s a little too much for her to say this in front of her face.
Therefore, she praises Eloa for the clothes that seem to be her favorite.
“I think the clothes look good on you. The shoes are pretty too.”
It’s a phrase she said time and time again when shopping for clothes, but Eloa responded similarly every time to her compliment that ‘the clothes fit well’.
Aside from the doubtful feeling of ‘Is that so?’
“I don’t know. It’s the first time I’ve ever worn heeled shoes like this… I think I’ve grown a bit taller… Doesn’t it stand out too much?”
“You all look good together.”
“… It is not.”
“You look good.”
“Don’t make fun of me.”
Master’s magic is amazing! Master martial arts are amazing! She was Elroa who nodded her head as if it were natural for the same compliment, but when she complimented her clothes, she repeated words like ‘Don’t tease me’ and was very shy.
She was cute even the reaction. She liked the taste of complimenting something constantly.
“I forgot something.”
“What?”
“Thank you for buying me nice clothes. It’s the first time I’ve experienced coming to a department store and buying clothes like this.”
“Strictly speaking, I didn’t buy it with my own money. And there are many things I have received from Master.”
To Siwoo, who was trembling with humility, Elroa spoke clearly.
“Earl Gemanai is a witch and at the same time a resourceful businessman. A great businessman, no matter how much money he has, never spends it wasted. If the Count has provided material support to you, it must be because you are a person who deserves it, not a light favor or sympathy.”
“Well… “
Something seemed to know how Eloa felt when she was complimented on her dress.
It’s just embarrassing and embarrassing and stuff like that.
In the first place, if you look at the cause of Siwoo’s enjoyment of such abundance in this world, it is because he confronted Ea Sadal Melik with the determination to give up his life.
I don’t know what kind of mentality he had to stand up to that terrifying Ea at a time when he couldn’t use even a single combat magic…
To be honest, I didn’t think it was a big deal.
Wouldn’t she have made a similar choice if not herself but whoever was there?
“Be a little more proud.”
Eloah playfully punched Siu on the back and went ahead.
Siu and Eloa bought enough ingredients to almost fill the cart and got into the car.
A hypercar given to you by Periwinkle.
In fact, until she first got it, she thought it was unlikely she would ever get on it after slamming it in a parking lot.
First of all, Siwoo himself was not very interested in cars, and he attracted attention incomparably with Ferrari or Lamborghini that can often be seen in downtown Seoul.
However, Siwoo, who took the steering wheel and looked around the road, had already fallen in love with this car.
A profound exhaust sound that is not noisy and a sense of unity with the car.
I was captivated by the well-made mechanism that made me feel like a living creature.
Siu smoothly got out of the underground parking lot.
Eloah is in her passenger seat, looking at her attire.
Elloa’s condition seems to be improving now, and now is the time to tell the story I heard from Periwinkle.
It was because what I heard from Periwinkle wasn’t just related to Siwoo’s safety.
“Master, I have something to tell you.”
“Can you say something so difficult? Feel free to tell me anything.”
Eloah rests comfortably on her back and suppresses a smile that keeps coming back to her.
All it took was one word to harden her expression.
“Do you know about the Periwinkle Witch?”
The moment the word periwinkle came out of Siwoo’s mouth.
Elroa involuntarily turned her head out of her window.
Periwinkle?
Suddenly she wonders why her name is coming up?
Eloah, immersed in her joyous mood, had forgotten her appreciation of her VR pornography over the past two days.
She watched her sexual intercourse for 36 hours, and it made her body hot without a second thought.
An embarrassing incident flashed through her mind that she could never tell anyone about.
Could Siwoo have already noticed what Eloa knows?
Or is she getting some sense of it and is she stealthily looking at it?
“Mo, mo, I don’t know. I know nothing.”
Elloa, her hair turning white, answered in a haphazard way.
Siu tilted her head at her almost startled reaction.
If she hadn’t been behind the wheel, you would have seen the ripe red ears peeking through her hair.
“I really don’t know. It’s not a lie, it’s true.”
“I didn’t think it was a lie… “
She reacted with some question, but she didn’t think it was a big deal.
“The other day when I was away from home. I had a chance to talk personally. According to his divination, he said that I was in danger soon. Um, maybe… I’m going to die… “
Except for the irritating content of her arm being cut off and dying, she also added that she was already halfway resolved.
This is because she could guess how Siu’s words would come to Elroa, who already had memories of losing someone dear to her.
She was Siu who carefully pulled her luck, but her Eloah’s reaction was fierce.
She glances back at Siu and looks at him with an almost panicked gaze.
“… What did you say now… ?”
Shaking eyes and creaking atmosphere.
Siwoo hurriedly added to the rapid breathing as if he had been stimulated by trauma.
“Oh, of course, thanks to her kindness, I also got a solution. They said it was a talisman that could save my life no matter what kind of crisis I was in.”
“Tell me in more detail.”
A tingle of speculation gushed out of Elroa.
It was a bloody fighting spirit that if there was an enemy that threatened Siwoo, he would cut them all down.
It reminded me of Elroa when I put a lotion in the first meeting with her.
First of all, you need to calm down a bit.
“Do not worry too much. It won’t be such a big deal.”
“How can this not be a big deal? The lucky witch is a witch who is good at astrology. Her fortune-telling rarely misses!”
It was a reaction that seemed to know quite a bit about Periwinkle.
“If I lose again… What if I lose you too? Me, i… I….”
As if she had already assumed the worst outcome for her, she began to shout Eloah with a fragile voice.
Siu panicked and pulled the car onto the shoulder of the road.
“Who is it? Why? Haven’t you heard anything about the crisis?”
Eloah holding Siwoo’s sleeve and hanging down.
Siu calmly read her and shared her thoughts.
“Periwinkle is also said to be leaving Korea for the time being. It is said that he saw the future in a fortune telling that a crisis would come within a month.
Considering the recent actions of the cowardly witch, perhaps within a month, she will cause an incident, and perhaps I will get caught up in it… “
“Did she say that?”
“Yes, you were of the same opinion as me.”
After the cowardly witch attack that took place not too long ago, a power vacuum occurred in Seoul as well as throughout Korea.
The witches who felt a sense of crisis from the successive events returned to Gehenna one after another or left the country.
The head of the Sua branch tried to request support from Gehenna and other location points branches, but most of them responded lukewarmly.
In the first place, the witch’s purpose is not to save people.
Their purpose is to elevate magnetic magic to a higher level.
Also, most of them struggled for self-reflection rather than taking risks.
For witches, death does not end with the death of an individual, but the extinction of a ‘generation’, so they do not want to get involved in an incident that seems uneasy and has no merit.
“This is why I told you not to worry too much.”
Siwoo took out two four-leaf clovers from his cigarette pack.
One is light green, the other pink.
It’s a gift that Periwinkle gave you saying it will save your life.
“Even if I’m destined to die, they say they’ll let me miss it once.”
It was only then that Elroa’s expression, which seemed to be cornered by her, was relaxed like a thread.
The Witch of Fortune was a celebrity among witches, and I had heard several times about the usefulness of her clover.
“Sorry, I was too rude.”
“No Master, I said it too suddenly.”
“So what are you going to do?”
“That… I don’t know yet.”
In fact, he had already guessed that some kind of incident would happen due to the cowardly witch.
But she can’t leave Sharon behind, and more than anything else, she’s reluctant to choose the option of running away twice in a row, so she’s holding back her decision.
But should I stay and fight until the moment I receive the fate of death?
If even the 20th rank Periwinkle was in danger of dying, wouldn’t it be better to take Sharon and take refuge?
That’s what I thought.
“Run away.”
Eloa said as if she had nothing to think about.
“Go into Gehenna and do not return until the situation has calmed down. It will be safer there than here.”
“But the branch president said it would take time to discuss getting Sharon into Gehenna.”
“I will help you with that part.”
In Gehenna, the immunity test for exiles is very strict.
In addition, the administrative work of Gehenna was very, very slow, so it was theorized that it would take a long time to go through formal procedures.
However, if a witch the size of Tiphareth pushes forward with her name and authority, nothing is impossible.
Even if it is a title that is only a cosmetic because it has lost its property and voice, it is still the only three duchy in Gehenna.
“Can you do that?”
Siu let out a sigh of relief.
If so, the minor burden is alleviated.
Above all else, it was fortunate that the unconscious Sharon was able to get out of the typhoon’s core.
“I’ll take care of it in two days, so you and Miss Evergreen… “
One thing passed through Eloa’s head as he was about to say, “Let’s take refuge in Gehenna.”
“…….”
“Master?”
Siwoo looked at Elroa, who had been absentmindedly for a while, with her questionable expression.
Eloa pulled Siwoo’s sleeve with a very earnest hand.
“Miss Evergreen will take refuge in Gehenna. But you… “
As if he would never let goheheld Siwoo’s hand tightly and said.
“… Don’t go anywhere Stay by my side.”
