City Of Witches 318

Chapter 318 – #71_Gehenna’s Host Bar

#316

One.
Eloah gulped down the remaining half bottle of whiskey while looking at Siwoo’s sleeping face with a comfortable expression.
The beautiful red wine flowed into his throat, creating a burning sensation.

“…….”

Elroa’s light magic, the traces of love that disappear with her beckoning.
The bodily fluids on the sheets, the bodily fluids on each other’s bodies.
The dirt gathered in one place disappeared neatly under the purifying flame.
Finally, put Shiu’s clothes back on.

With this all traces are gone.
As if nothing had happened.

“There really isn’t that much of a difference.”

No matter how happy the moment is, once it passes, it is bound to be buried in the past.
If warm memories belong to two people, they will remain in their hearts.
If you call it a memory, tonight’s happiness will be only half a memory.

Eloah will never be forgotten,
Siwoo won’t be able to remember forever.

For a moment, Elroa wondered if it was okay to regard it as a ‘memories we had together’.
And she soon realized that it was a useless idea and dismissed it as if it were cut off.
This is what she promised from the moment she allowed her body to Siwoo.
Now, there is no palace like this to feel sorry for or depressed.

“Siw….”

She sat on the bedside of the sleeping Siu and stroked his head.
Eloa used her contract 3 strokes to erase Siu’s memory.

Her body couldn’t be normal since she had committed the act of using magnetic magic on a body that already required enough rest.
The feeling in her fingertips has disappeared, just like after being electrocuted, and her heart complains of arrhythmias.
Even so, his body temperature was clearly felt enough to be affectionate.

“It’s scheduled, it’s scheduled….”

In fact, Elroa’s not-so-skillful memory manipulation would be lightly blocked by her considerable ‘self-defense’.
In the first place, mind-altering magic is not applicable to witches with higher mental abilities.

However, Siwoo had no self-defense even though he had magnetic magic of about 16th to 17th rank.
Eloa aimed for that and, as you can see, succeeded easily.

All the hot memories of getting drunk tonight, as well as the memories of overlapping bodies in the rain tunnel in the past, were erased.
In addition, he filled it with other memories in case he felt a sense of incongruity and regained his memory after realizing that the cause and effect of the incident was wrong.
For Siwoo, the memory of ‘I had an affair with Master Eloa’ itself disappeared.

It was an unauthorized decision, but it was the teacher’s job to correct the disciple who had gone astray.
It shouldn’t have come to this point in the first place.

Eloah took her forearm and everything in her returned to normal.
The incident that put Siu to the test and left Eloa endlessly has disappeared.
The first experience of the rainwater tunnel, where the boundary between master and student collapsed.

Anything is hard the first time, easy the second time.
In fact, Eloah also came to recognize Siu as her opposite sex after that, and ended up giving up on her humanity.

“… Sniff.”

Eloa felt the tip of her nose tingle.
A teacher who cannot severely scold a disciple who loves him.
On the contrary, there was no longer a teacher who had a love for a student and allowed himself to be possessed.

You should definitely be happy.
Elroa felt the back of her eyes squeeze and wiped her blurry vision with her sleeve.
At some point, hot tears were about to flow without hesitation.

“Siw….”

She knew she shouldn’t.

However, he who led Eloah, who had lost Raffi and became a reason to live,
He who informed the world that Eloah did not know,
She couldn’t stand it without love.

“I’m sorry. By behaving selfishly You are always a nuisance.”

That’s why, in order to finish everything, he fooled around with him to his heart’s content today.
He made Siwoo do everything he wanted to do, and he did everything he wanted to do.
He won’t remember, but Eloah won’t.

“…….”

Elroa lowered her head to Siu’s lips, who fell asleep soundly without any reply, and kissed her lightly.
This really last.
She straightened her disheveled collar and stroked Siu’s hair one last time before quietly leaving her carriage.

2.
Early moning.
Waking up refreshed, the twins discovered an abnormality.

“…….”
“…….”

Picnic baskets piled up in the living room luggage pile.
This is because the ‘Sweet Potion’, which should have been sleeping quietly in it, was about half gone.

“Odette, didn’t you drink it in your sleep?”
“Sister, didn’t you drink in your sleep?”
“Did I never wake up all night?”
“So do I.”

Sister Odile Odette, who reflexively interrogates the most likely suspect.
However, each other’s reactions quickly draw the conclusion that this cannot be the case.
Then another question arises here.

“Then who drank it?”

The most important issue is figuring out what variables occurred while the twins were sleeping.
The people in this luxurious mansion are the twins, assistants, and older sister Sharon.
Of course, the twins who slept soundly all night are excluded from the line of suspicion.
If so, Sharon’s sister or her assistant drank about half of the tea.

“It’s a big deal, isn’t it?”
“If Sharon drank it, it would be fine.”

Odile felt a cold sweat pouring down his face.
If Sharon drank, she would have no effect.
This is because this potion is only effective for ‘men’.

“But what if my assistant drank?”

However, if Siwoo drank, the story would be a little different.
When the twins woke up from a sound sleep, Sharon was the only person who could see her face, so the target for the ‘love’ effect was self-evident.

In other words, it goes beyond giving Sharon unnie to porridge….

“You brought the seven-stack table and offered it!”
“Odette! It’s a big deal! Big deal!”
“Sister! What should we do! What should we do!”

The twins are in a state of chaos, as if they had invaded a wasp’s nest.
It is true that he promised to fight fair and square in the future, but it did not mean that he would give support to the already superior opponent.

“Haaaaa…. What are you doing in the morning?”

Then Sharon, her hair tousled, appeared in her pajamas.
The confused twins focus on Sharon.

“What, what?”
“…….”
“…….”

Odile and Odette stare at Sharon’s condition, and Sharon panics.

Proviso.
Dirty pajamas and hair, squeaky slippers, and a protracted yawn.
There was no sign of intense love, at least in the exposed part.
For example, a kiss mark on the nape of the neck or a handprint on the wrist.
However, this cannot be determined.

“Good morning.”
“Did you sleep well?”
“Yes, I slept well. Uh huh Where?”

The twins who run through Sharon left and right and Odo also runs.

“Excuse me!”
“I’ll take a look!”

– Jump!

I immediately open the door where Sharon was staying and go in and look at her bed.

“Bed, nothing more.”
“The assistant’s smell, nothing strange.”

Odile sprints to look at the bed, and Odette buries her nose and sniffs like a detection dog.

“You, what are you doing!”

The unusual behavior of her twin made Sharon jump up and make her blush.
No matter how much she provided accommodations, it is not polite to enter someone else’s room like this without permission.
Sharon, quite offended, strode up to her twin and rammed her chestnuts.

“Wow!”
“Sick….”
“Ugh! Why are you so distracted from the last wind!”

Odile and Odette sighed in relief while humbly accepting the punishment.
If the assistant had tea, he couldn’t have kept such a tidy room.
Still asking for confirmation.

“Sharon, did you drink tea from this bottle at night?”
“Is it black tea?”
“Yes? No?”

The twins’ faces, which had been strangely relieved, hardened again.
If that’s the case, it’s the assistant who drank.

“What? What’s wrong?”
“Oh, nothing.”

Then the twins heard the bell on the porch rattle and ran out.
Sharon, who had taken a deep sigh at the liveliness that pierced the sky since morning, moved her steps again to see Siwoo’s face.

3.
“Where is this again?”

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the twins were in a carriage.
I looked around to see what was going on, but no one else was there.
It seems that he crawled all the way here after drinking alone.

“Since I ate all of this by myself, the film cuts.”

Seeing a bottle of whiskey empty, Siwoo puts on a tired expression.
It seemed that only the memory was gone and the hangover ended like this thanks to the excellence of the spiritual body.
Anyway, the twins greeted me as soon as I returned to the villa after tidying up the general situation.

Odette asks with her eyes closed.

“Assistant! Assistant! Did your assistant eat this?”

Looking at the pretty black tea in the pretty bottle, she admitted it obediently.
Didn’t you drink because your throat was sore while cleaning yesterday?

“Yes, I drank while cleaning last night.”
“…….”

I felt a bit uneasy at the sudden silence of the twins.

“Did we all try to drink together? I’m so sorry.”
“Oh, no…. I was going to throw it away because it was a failure.”
“Right! But maybe… Who were you with last night?”

With who?

The twins’ reaction to suddenly asking such a question was strange, but Siu recalled a thoughtful memory.
I remember crawling into a carriage while drinking alone….
After that, nothing comes to mind as if the castle had been cut off.

“Sharon and….”

The expression of the twins as if the sky was collapsing.

“Odile-nim and Odette-nim. Why? What happened?”

The twins let out a sigh at the words that followed.

“Nothing!”
“It’s nothing.”

Anyway, after the twins, who had been noisy since the morning, sat down and finished breakfast, the four of them slowly finished getting ready to go back.
Sharon helps the twins to get ahead first and Siwoo to move the luggage.

“With Lady Odile and Lady Odette…. Isn’t that a bit strange?”
“Is it? What happened last night?”
“It’s because nothing happened, so they say I’m weird. Did I just get a good night’s sleep?”

While Siwoo tilted her head, Sharon felt something was wrong.
Siwoo, who is said to have slept in the carriage out of nowhere, is suspicious somewhere, and the twins, who tremble and ask who he was with, are also suspicious.
The woman’s touch was telling her that there had been an accident last night.

Actually, it doesn’t matter who Siwoo was with.
Hadn’t she already promised?
I decided not to care who Siwoo met as long as he came back.

However….

“Drinking alone in a real wagon and then sleeping?”
“Because it is.”

Sharon’s eyes were on the sandy beach.
In addition to the two sets of footprints her twin took before, there are also large footprints left by Siu last night.

“You’re not lying, are you?”
“Why would I lie? I was really alone.”
“… Yes.”

And next to it, some are swept away by the waves, some seem to have been blown away by the wind, but they are there.
Neither the twins nor Siwoo’s, but ‘someone else’s footprints’ remain.
It was like walking in a carriage side by side with Shiu.

Suddenly.
Her chest felt a bit tight.
Because Shiu lied.
