Chapter 157 – 157. Time to Choose (3)
“I——.”
You have to answer.
Who will you choose?
When I saw the girl’s eyes, I felt something close to obsession.
But ironically, my lips remained tightly closed and unmoving.
The more I tried to suppress my words, the more my tongue hid behind my front teeth.
“… “Hmph.”
The girl let out a shallow snort and frowned.
With a very angry expression on his face, he turned his cold red eyes towards me.
“Are you unable to answer?”
“…”
“Did you carelessly put your hands on my younger brother when you couldn’t even make such a decision properly?”
The girl said something.
I still couldn’t respond to the anger I felt in his blunt voice.
The four people in the warrior party are my precious colleagues.
Isis is the savior who saved my life.
And Elena was the first person in my life to confess my pure love.
It was my true intention that I did not want to let go of any one of them.
That’s why you can’t choose.
Because I like everyone.
I couldn’t possibly choose one person and give up the rest.
I know. How selfish and expedient this heart is.
He is extremely greedy, and I know that his feelings are like those of a child.
But.
Still, I am.
“… I don’t know either.”
I can’t choose.
“Everyone is precious to me. “Those are the people I never want to lose in my life.”
“You speak arbitrarily, you.”
“It can’t be helped. Wouldn’t you know this if you had been watching it from the side? “How much Elena and other people like me.”
“…”
“It’s okay to call it deception. Even if it’s hypocrisy, I have nothing to say. Even so, I can’t see those kids getting hurt because of me.”
I confessed my inner feelings.
Even though I had only seen her a few times, I was somehow able to tell this girl my true thoughts.
The red-eyed girl who was glaring at me eventually let out a sigh.
Perhaps because my stomach was burning, I gulped down the remaining coffee and looked down at the empty teacup.
“Humans are so uncomfortable. “I can’t help but wonder why I have such an inefficient body and mind.”
As she clattered the teacup down on her saucer, the girl’s harsh gaze softened little by little.
“I can’t just mate with someone I like. “You have to put in a lot of time and effort to get laid just once, and even if you make a physical connection, there are many cases where you quickly get tired of it and leave.”
“Ahaha…”
“Something like I can’t choose, or I don’t want to hurt you. It’s a way of thinking that I don’t understand.”
After rummaging through the hem of her clothes, the girl found herself in her seat.
I quickly followed the girl moving towards the entrance of the café.
“I came here to fix that ambiguous attitude, but it seems to be of no use to you now.”
“Eww… “I’m sorry.”
“That’s Okay. Because I knew you were having your own worries.”
As soon as we left the café together, the girl turned in my direction.
The red hair, fluttering in the wind, began to burn with a flame befitting its color.
“It’s not that I don’t like you. However, if you keep your half-hearted attitude like you are now, you may end up making all six of you sad someday. “I don’t like that attitude.”
“Yes, I’ll keep that in mind.”
She nodded with a wry smile.
Looking at me with her treacherous eyes, the girl wrapped herself in flames that spread from her hair.
“I don’t know if you’re her past life or anything, but please don’t ruin Elena.”
“Okay, be careful… Huh?”
She nodded, overcome with guilt.
This girl, didn’t she just call me her past life?
“Wait a minute, Sally! What did you just say… !”
I was shocked and tried to grab the girl.
However, where I reached out, instead of the girl’s shape, there were only the remnants of flames fluttering in the air.
I looked in vain at the empty seat next to her.
As I replayed the image of her as a girl in my brain, I was able to look back on what she had said.
The number of people who mixed with me was expressed as ‘six’.
Including the four members of the warrior party and Elena, there would be five people.
Nevertheless, that child clearly knew that there were six women with whom I was involved.
Moreover, they seemed to realize that I was someone from another world.
“… “High-ranking hwansu are different after all.”
It’s an insight that makes her click her tongue.
Because I was shocked, I managed to calm my pounding heart.
“Select…”
The worry only deepened quietly.
Thinking over and over again the girl’s words lingering in my head, I turned toward the cathedral.

“Kkurruk, gurgle.”
“Where have you been, Sally! “I’ve been looking for you for a long time!”
“Kuiiing. “Kkeureuk, kkeeuung.”
“Yeah, really? What if it’s just getting some air…”
With her familiar sitting on her lap, Elena put down her angry expression and stroked her red Salamander’s head.
The beast in its arms, licking its tongue happily, was fully exposing its bright red eyes to the sky-haired girl.
“Still! From now on, you can’t wander around like that carelessly! “Understand, right?”
“Kkrrrr!
Her familiar responded with a cheerful cry to Elena’s words as if she was comforting her child.
Then the girl, who was in a good mood, suddenly put her Sally on her bed and jumped up.
“Kyoung?”
“Sally, I feel like I didn’t pay enough attention to you to the point where you even went out to get some fresh air by yourself. “I prepared a special delicious snack today.”
“Kyuuuuu!”
“Hehe, do you like it that much? Okay, I’ll get it right away!”
Shaking her head to the beat of Sally, Elena opened the door to her room.
“Kyuyiing?”
“Oh, I had it delivered to the dormitory! “I’ll get it from the first floor, so Sally, you can take a break!”
“Kkeuk…” …”
“I’ll come back!”
Before Sally could say anything, Elena quickly closed the door and went outside.
Left alone in the room, Sally looked around for a moment and then closed her bright eyes.
Suddenly, flames bloomed.
The prominence that enveloped Sally’s body changed her form from that of a lizard-like phantom beast to that of a beautiful maiden.
“Phew…”
Sally let out a small sigh and wiggled her human hands.
After confirming that her transformation had not gone wrong, she looked down at the soft bed that supported her buttocks.
She always ran her hand over the bed where Elena slept.
After briefly feeling the texture of her soft sheets, Sally carefully laid her body down on them.
“A way of thinking that I don’t understand…”
She said in the daytime to the face of that abominable saint, and she said to herself,
As soon as those words were put into her mouth, Sally burst into laughter.
“Who is talking to whom?”
The girl who spoke self-deprecatingly buried her face in her bed.
Sally massaged her lower abdomen with her hands, smelling Elena’s fragrant body.
Looking at the face of the girl who was sleeping peacefully.
Every time she turns over, I admire the soft glow of her skin.
What did Sally herself do?
She said, “I never thought I, who was called the Princess of Salamander, would do such dirty things every night…”
Every time she thought about it, Sally felt ashamed of herself.
She had no choice but to do so.
She didn’t just touch Elena, she did everything else.
Silently comforting yourself behind Elena’s sleeping body is already something that happens every night.
Sometimes she would put things like towels or underwear that Elena had used in her mouth and indulge in all kinds of ugly delusions.
She even got so excited that she poured some of her bodily fluids onto Elena.
It’s vulgar. It’s ugly. Pathetic.
This is absolutely not something a proud princess of Salamander would do.
Even though she knew it well, Sally couldn’t stop this inefficient thinking.
That may be why.
The reason why I don’t like Tesia Rupilberg so much.
Sally I hate her for achieving on her own what she couldn’t.
On the subject of inhabitants of other worlds.
The four humans who adore her, and even her goddess, are always with her.
Now, I hate the saint who is trying to take away Elena, who was Sally’s sanctuary.
Every time Sally looked at Thesia Lupilberg with her own ‘eyes’ it only increased her envy towards her.
But.
“… Phew.”
Because she loves her master so much.
Because I care about her so much.
Sally wants to support her even more.
I want to watch Elena grow into a great adult in human society.
After successfully graduating from her academy, Elena wants to spend the rest of her life with the companion she truly loves.
If Sally didn’t have her own place there, she was confident she would leave without regret.
For that she had to change her attitude to Thesia Lupilberg.
She had to decide whether to be Elena’s mate and help this young girl come to her senses and get back on track.
“… “Hmph.”
Sally snorted again, picturing her dainty silver hair and gold eyes in her mind.
… If.
Just in case, Elena and Thesia don’t end up together.
Then Sally herself will take Elena.
I will completely subdue the person named Elena Schubert so that she can only look at herself.
It was a moment when I was strengthening my resolve.
Jump up!
Through the roughly opened door, Elena appeared with an array of various snacks and desserts.
“Wow, it’s hot! If I had been a little late, all the cookies would have melted… Huh?”
The girl stared blankly at her bed as she placed a mountain of snacks on her desk.
Sally was there.
“What is it, Sally? Do you like my bed that much? I was rolling around having so much fun.”
“Kkkk.”
The red Salamander, who instantly returned to her original form, was lying down on the bed with her belly clearly exposed.
Elena let out a happy laugh as she gently patted Sally’s stomach.
“Ayu, you’re cute. Look at that chubby belly. “I don’t know what I ate to make it so soft.”
“Kyurrrrung, kyunung.”
“Wow, do you like it here? Aww, it’s cute~.”
Elena caresses Sally with a high voice.
Thought Sally to herself as she looked at her owner with a wide smile.
There, it’s my heart.
