Chapter 29 – Blue Cake
Sharp golden eyes peered through the cracks in the door as if to kill the room.
If the target of those eyes were not Yuria but Mirian, they would have noticed right away.
‘That slut…’
Yuria thought she avoided Martha’s eyes well, but Marta had been keeping an eye on her even before she arrived at Madis.
But she couldn’t understand that thought, so she felt sorry for the hero, but using her hero as bait, she tried to draw out Yuria’s thoughts.
And now, hearing Yuria’s words, Martha, who had roughly grasped her situation during that time, thought.
‘… This is no mere coincidence.’
To remind the warrior that Yuria and Mirian belong to the Horde again.
The hero gets word from her horde to never lay her hands on her again, so the hero blocks Yuria’s approach.
That was Martha’s plan, but Horde’s words made everything go to waste.
It was only natural that the plan was made on the premise that the Horde would reject it in the first place.
‘… Who was it that made that scum bring out those words?’
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t believe that the Horde would have given permission to the champion in their own thoughts and said that directly to the two with their own mouth.
If so, who the heck said that?
Judging by the method of elimination, first of all, it wasn’t Yuria who was rubbing the filthy lump of fat over there.
There was no time for that, and the reason why the hero apologized to Horde in the first place was because Martha recommended it when YuRia was gone.
So it must have been later that Yuria noticed it.
Then, apart from YuRia, the only ones who could possibly have been with Horde at the time were Lina and Mirian.
‘It’s not Mirian…’
Considering that she was not a woman with a good head, and that she was a knight and valued her honor, Mi An was also excluded from the nomination.
So, there is only one candidate left, a person who can make such a proposal to Horde, and probably conveyed that to Yuria at Grid Mall.
“Reena…”
Martha, muttering the name involuntarily, knew how Lina could have done such a thing, but she did not know why she did it.
‘I thought it was on my side, wasn’t it?’
She had always thought that she was an incomprehensible human being, but she had come to this point, so Marta really couldn’t understand it.
‘I need to check first…’
Marta wanted to go into her room right now and slap YuRia on the cheek, but she couldn’t move hastily now that she didn’t know what Lina was thinking.
“Ahhh… !”
Martha, who was trying to find Lina and try to get her intentions out, heard an ugly moan that made her want to rip her throat out.
‘This dog… !!’
I wanted to go into that room and tear Yuria’s heart out right now, but she couldn’t move.
It was a story after figuring out Lina’s intentions first.
‘Wait a little bit, hero… I’ll be sure to save you.’
Coming back to her deck, Martha returned to her seat and looked for Lina, but Lina was nowhere to be seen, as if she had just left.
Not finding her Lina, Marta went down from her deck again and went to her Lina’s room, but Lina was nowhere to be found on her deck either.
‘There is no other place to be…’
Marta thought of a place for Lina to be, but when she remembered that there was a restaurant on board that sold drinks and meals, she headed there.
In her restaurant, as expected, Lina was drinking her alcohol and ordering a lot of snacks.
Martha frowned at her when she saw Lina drinking casually, ignorant of her human feelings.
However, she was offended by Lina, so she relaxed her expression so that nothing strange would happen again, and she approached Lina with a smile as natural as possible.
“Lina-san! You were eating here!”
“Huh?”
When Martha approached her, talking to her, Lina, who was drinking her, put down her glass and looked at her Martha.
“Uh, I was having a drink, what happened?”
“No, it’s just that I don’t think I’ve had much of a conversation with Rina-san about her, so even if it’s just for a moment…”
“… She’s not him. You saw it first, right? Is it bad luck… Or is it just poor…”
“… Yes?”
For a moment, Martha couldn’t understand what Lina was saying, so she tilted her head, unable to react.
Then, when she saw Martha and Lina imitated her caressing her breasts with her hands, only then did she know what Lina was talking about.
“Also… It was something you made up.”
“I didn’t really want this, but… What ended up like that?”
“Why did you do this? I thought you were on my side…”
“Side? What… If you have to divide the side, don’t do it. But why?”
“Why is that… Are you saying that when you know what that nasty girl is up to?!”
Martha, who inadvertently made a loud noise without realizing it, immediately covered her mouth with her hand as if she had made a mistake.
Seeing Martha like that, Lina smiled and put the glass she was holding on the table with a noise.
“That point… Don’t worry. Because I can make it stop right now.”
“… How?”
“Easier than killing a goblin. All you need is a cake and an idiot.”
*****
Horde, who had never experienced flying in the sky like a hero, watched the night view from the deck, but when the adventurers of the Azul Kingdom came out on the deck, they returned to their rooms frowning.
‘I’m bored…’
He says it takes 5 days to get to Elysium, but Horde has had nothing to do inside the ship in the meantime.
He thought about getting a drink at the restaurant on the airship, but it was burdensome to spend more than Jirai, who had spent quite a bit on shoes earlier.
I had nothing to do but stare blankly at the ceiling when I heard a knock on the door.
-Smart
I wondered what was going on, so I got up and the door opened without even telling me to come in.
“Hey, I’m here to keep the promise I made earlier.”
It was Lina who knocked on the door. Seeing Lina holding a blue cake with a fork in it, Horde tilted her head.
“Promise? What promise?”
“Have you already eaten? I told you I was helping you with your love affairs.”
“Ah…”
At that time, he forgot about the Horde for a while because he hadn’t said anything since the conversation he had with the hero in the alley.
Hod, who had no idea what or how he meant to help, pointed to the cake Lina was holding and said.
“Does helping have something to do with the cake in her hand?”
“Okay! That’s right! Right now Yuria is training her magic. So, bring this to YuRia as a snack.”
First of all, whether or not I officially confessed, I had to build up a good impression.
For that reason, she said to bring a cake as a snack to YuRia, who must have been exhausted from her magic training.
“That is… Will it really work?”
“This alone won’t work. But as these things pile up, the story changes.”
Just like when Horde first violated Yuria, the weakest time for her is when she is sad.
Now, when Yuria and Mirian were constantly kicked and kicked by the hero and were in despair, it wasn’t a very hopeless story if they gradually built up a good feeling in this way and aimed for a gap in that disappointment.
“Is it… Then do it.”
“Okay, take it quickly and go.”
Horde headed to YuRia’s room, thinking of the bright future that might lie ahead, with the idea that Mt. Geumgang was also after dinner.
-Gulp.
As he approached right in front of YuRia’s room, Horde became nervous and swallowed her saliva, even though he was overlapping her body several times.
But he came this far, and he couldn’t back down just because he was nervous.
Horde, who soon made up his mind, knocked on the door once and opened Yuria’s door.
He didn’t ask for permission, but if he saw that the door wasn’t locked, he’d be fine opening it.
“Hey, this K…”
Horde, who was about to tell her to eat her cake, stiffened as it was when he saw the warrior and Yuria hugging each other with her top off.
It was the Horde who half-forcedly gave permission to do this, but his body stiffened when he actually saw it.
“Ho, Mr. Horde?”
Like the Horde that hardened after seeing the two, the warrior who turned his head upon hearing the knocking also hardened like the Horde the moment he saw the Horde.
“Yes, why are you here… ?”
And Yuria, who never expected Horde to come, looked at Horde with eyes as if she were looking at her obstruction.
“Ugh, ugh… !!”
Horde, who couldn’t say anything to that gaze and question, dropped the cake without realizing it and ran away.
– Iron puck!
Like the spirit of the Horde, the cake fell off the plate and collapsed with a crackling sound.
‘Fuck! Fuck!! Fuck!!!’
First of all, tears start to form in the eyes of Horde, who runs recklessly.
He knew well enough that Horde did not deserve to shed tears, but even so he could not bear the sorrow and pain.
“Hey, hold on, Mr. Horde!!”
Seeing Horde drop the cake and run away, the hero ran after Horde towards Horde.
“Yo, hero!!”
Yuria repeatedly called out the name of the hero who was running towards the horde, but the hero did not stop her.
In the end, the hero did not return, leaving only a dirty cake with Yuria and the hero’s feet completely shattering the shape.
For some reason, Yuria, who layered herself on the cake, muttered while looking at her cake.
“Fuck…”
*****
“Ha… !”
On the other hand, it was a warrior who came out in a hurry, but he lost sight of the Horde while taking care of her clothes.
‘Maybe… Are you on the deck or in your room?’
Thinking so, the hero first headed for Horde’s room, but as soon as he turned the corner, Lina, who was there, called the hero.
“Warrior! What’s the matter? Are you running so fast?”
“Reena… There’s that…”
Not knowing how to explain what just happened, the hero hesitated to speak with Lina in front of her.
Then Lina tapped the hero who was hesitant to speak and said.
“I don’t know what happened, but if you have any trouble, please consult. Maybe you can come up with a good idea?”
“Reena…”
Hearing that, the hero stopped hesitating and explained to Lina what had happened so far as briefly as possible.
“Um… I see.”
The hero himself had a feeling that he explained too briefly, but Lina nodded her head and said as if she knew from the beginning.
“If that’s the case… Hero, you better not go to apologize.”
“The world is not that simple. Actions done with good intentions by a hero may appear to be malicious to others.”
This time, strictly speaking, the Horde’s permission was obtained, so the hero did nothing wrong.
It was not the hero’s fault that Horde ran away, but it was Horde’s own problem, as it was Horde’s feelings of inferiority and jealousy.
Under such circumstances, if the hero went to apologize, the Horde was likely to take it as sarcastic.
“Then maybe it’s good?”
At Lina’s words, her hero stretched her shoulders, and Lina pointed at herself with her thumb and said,
“Then, I’ll say it well for now, so the hero goes back and rests. It’s a pity, but I think it’ll be more helpful without a hero.”
The warrior, who immediately recognized that he was useless, said nothing more and hung his head.
“… I’m sorry, but can I ask you a favor?”
“Yes, this is what I specialize in. I’ll tell you well, so be at ease.
“… Then please.”
After that, the hero silently returned to his room.
After confirming that her hero had returned to her own room, Lina spoke to Martha, who was hiding on a street corner near her.
“This is what I wanted to do. Do you understand now?”
