Chapter 1026 – 1026. Yggdrasil (7)
As soon as I left the bedroom and closed the door, a loud voice rang out from the end of the hallway.
“I came out!”
“Go quickly and check!”
The identity of the voice was that of an attendant and a guard.
Countless elves came from both sides of Stella’s bedroom hallway.
‘I knew it…’
As expected, the castle was already turned upside down.
“First of all, let’s take care of Her Highness… !”
“What harm could that person have done to Her Majesty the Princess? “Surround that human!”
However, since Stella’s bedroom was perfectly soundproofed, it seemed that the outside and inside were unaware of each other’s situation.
I sighed and spoke in a low voice as I saw the elves rushing in.
“Everyone stops.”
“Ugh!”
“Pfft!”
The elves who were flocking to Stella’s bedroom stopped in place as if they had been petrified.
There is only one reason why they stopped.
Dominance.
‘It’s really amazing.’
I was able to realize how great the dominance was.
And on the other hand, I could feel the sense of despondency that such power gave.
‘This is why you don’t like writing.’
Stella has never used dominance in front of me before.
No matter how annoyed he was, he never expressed dominance in his words.
Although it was only at a superficial level, I could understand Stella’s boredom.
However, I only understood it to a certain extent, and I had no intention of letting it go like Stella.
‘Good. There is no midsummer.’
Knowing that there was no midsummer, I commanded the elves with control.
“Tell your princess to come back in 10 minutes because she needs time to think. “I’ve done everything, so please show me where I can stay.”
“Ugh…”
The servants and guards staring at me with angry expressions.
But there was nothing they could do other than look at me with dissatisfaction.
“This way… By…”
Three servants who seemed to be in charge of my duties began to guide me.
I left a reassuring message in the bedroom door before leaving.
“Don’t worry, nothing unpleasant happened as you think.”
“Ah…”
A sigh of relief echoed throughout the hallway.
I laughed secretly when I saw those elves.
‘There was a surname-related incident, though.’
Among the elves here, not a single one is worried about Stella’s chastity.
Even though there is a possibility of losing one’s life, elves are the ones who think that the possibility of losing one’s virginity is 0%.
I left Stella’s bedroom with the truth behind.
One of the three attendants who guided me suddenly opened his mouth.
“If… If there was a problem with Her Highness’s health… I will never forgive you.”
“…”
The three servants glared at me.
Beyond the hostility they exuded, I could feel their immense loyalty to Stella.
‘Hey… It’s a queen bee. ‘Queen bee.’
It wasn’t meant as a mockery.
Stella was like a queen bee to the elves.
The elves seemed to be loyal to Stella out of instinct imprinted in their genes, not out of dominance.
I was able to realize once again how great Stella is.
“They said there was no problem. Oh! “Please show me to my colleagues’ rooms first, not my room.”
“… I understand.”
The attendants continued to ask questions as they guided me.
What is your relationship with Her Royal Highness, what did you talk about, etc…
I didn’t ignore the question, but I didn’t give a proper answer either.
Anyway, Stella will make it up and say it on her own.
I was afraid that if I told you, there would be some strange misunderstanding due to unnecessary confusion.
“Here it is.”
“Whose room is it?”
“… “This is the gold-haired woman’s room.”
At first, I thought it was because I didn’t want to say my name…
“We are prepared to leave at any time. When you want to leave… Please call me.”
“…”
Of course, he thought he would leave right away and didn’t even ask his name.
I laughed and waved my hands.
“That’s enough guidance. Now go check on your princess.”
“Let’s go!”
“Yes!”
As soon as I finished speaking, the servants began running like crazy towards Stella’s bedroom.
“… Wow.”
Without realizing it, I was impressed by the servants’ reactions.
I wondered how anxious he must have been while guiding me.
After confirming that the attendants had left, I entered Midspring’s room.
Fortunately, party members were gathered in Hanbom’s room.
Except for one person.
“Huh? “What about winter?”
Midwinter was nowhere to be seen.
The members looked at each other in response to my question, and then Min Ha-yeon smiled awkwardly and answered on behalf of me.
“He said he had something to think about and is taking a break.”
“Ah…”
I thought maybe I was tired because I had been through various things.
I spent some time talking with my companions like that.
Actually, I prepared my mind before starting the conversation.
I thought there would be a barrage of questions related to Stella.
But…
“This place has a nice atmosphere, but the air is also clean.”
“Plus, there is good ventilation thanks to the holes.”
“Sister… “Don’t talk about that damn hole.”
My companions never once asked me a question.
We just chatted loudly with each other, just like when I wasn’t around.
The conversation itself was enjoyable.
‘Ha… I’m feeling sleepy.’
But it seemed like the fatigue I had accumulated while having sex with Stella earlier was slowly taking away my body’s will.
As I shook my head to come to my senses, Min Ha-yeon suddenly stood up and cleared the place.
“Let’s sleep for today.”
“Uh? Are you going to sleep already?”
“Let’s go to bed early today, wake up tomorrow, and go see the city.”
“Oh, that’s good!”
So, after leaving Hanbom’s room, we headed to our respective rooms.
Han Ga-eul and Namgung Yu-ha had rooms in the same direction, so they left first.
And I…
“Where is my room?”
Since I hadn’t been guided to my room yet, I naturally walked side by side with Min Ha-yeon.
“Huh? “Don’t you know where the room is?”
“The conversation with Stella lasted a long time, and as soon as we finished talking, you came to see me.”
“Ah…”
Finding a room won’t be difficult.
Arbos servants have a strong hierarchy, so all servants will know the location of my guest room.
Women may be confused, but as a man… You won’t be able to forget me, who even talked to Stella alone for over 10 hours.
But I felt so tired that even asking such a question was bothersome.
And there is one conclusion.
“Hayeon, can I sleep in your room?”
Without thinking much, I asked Ha-yeon Min.
It wasn’t a question asking for permission.
It was a question I asked with confidence that I would, of course, agree.
But Min Ha-yeon’s answer instantly took away the fatigue that had been clouding my mind.
“No. Let’s sleep separately today.”
“… ?”
Unexpected rejection.
I asked, looking at Min Ha-yeon with a surprised expression.
“Why? What’s going on?”
It’s not anyone else, it’s Min Ha-yeon.
Min Ha-yeon rejected the offer, which was essentially a request from me.
Min Ha-yeon grinned when she saw me, and she grunted in response.
“I can’t do it because I feel like if you stay with me like that, something bigger will happen.”
“Ah…”
I knew Min Ha Yeon long ago that she had a good eye for attention.
And he immediately noticed that I was tired.
‘It was because of me that suddenly happened earlier.’
He noticed my tired state and cleaned up the place.
A feeling of gratitude and regret slowly bloomed.
The fact that he is observant enough to notice my fatigue means there is a high possibility that he has already figured out the cause of my fatigue.
No, it’s not a high possibility…
“Aren’t you going to be tired for a while? “Focus on resting for now.”
I was already convinced.
Min Ha-yeon looked at me with a sinister smile like a dreamer’s.
With an awkward smile, I avoided eye contact and prayed earnestly to meet the attendant.
But before my prayers could reach me, Min Ha-yeon’s voice reached my eardrums.
“Suho, I have something to say.”
“Huh? “Here?”
“Huh. “It’s not a long story.”
Thanks to Min Ha-yeon’s consideration, I nodded based on her regained energy.
When I nodded my head, Min Ha-yeon smiled and got straight to the point.
“Don’t worry about us while you’re here.”
“… “What?”
Is this really an extension of the conversation from earlier?
I thought it was just a story about paying attention to Stella.
However, Min Ha-yeon’s intention was slightly different from what I thought.
“Pay attention to Winter.”
“Ah…”
I nodded and answered with an expression that showed no worries.
“Of course. Take care starting tomorrow…”
“No, it’s not like that. “Please focus your attention on winter and focus on us.”
“Uh… Eh… ?”
At first, I couldn’t understand what was being said.
As I looked at her with a blank expression, Min Ha-yeon tapped my forearm with a still smiling expression.
“You will find out tomorrow when winter arrives. “We’ll take care of it, so don’t worry about it.”
“Uh… ?”
“I’m going to sleep!”
Min Ha-yeon hurriedly left her greeting and ran away.
I don’t know what it is…
“… “Let’s sleep first and then think about it.”
Since Min Ha-yeon said so, we will naturally find out tomorrow.
However…
“Where is my room…”
I was wandering aimlessly through the hallways alone, then met a servant and was barely able to find my guest room.
.
.
The next day, of course, I thought I would meet midwinter first.
But…
“How long do you plan on sleeping?”
“… I was planning on sleeping until lunch?
As soon as I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was not midwinter, but Stella.
For your information, I didn’t even have an attendant call me.
He himself came to my room accompanied by servants.
I greeted her with her messy hair, and she told me bluntly that she wasn’t interested in my appearance.
“Come out. It’s meal time.”
“No, I’m not hungry? I want to sleep more…”
“If you want to stay here, be sure to stick to meal times, no matter what.”
“…”
Actually, I could have just ignored it, but I was so sleepy that I didn’t have time to think about it.
I ended up following Stella to the restaurant without even washing up.
It was different from the restaurant I saw yesterday.
I thought the restaurant I saw yesterday was amazing, but this one went far beyond that level.
But something else caught my eye more than the fancy restaurant.
“Huh? What about my colleagues?”
There were no people in the restaurant.
Stella answered with her snort.
“They will eat at the restaurant for foreign guests where we talked yesterday.”
“Here is… ?”
“This is the Royal Hall.”
“What’s different?”
“Yes, this is a royal restaurant. Outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission.”
“…”
In other words, the story was that this huge restaurant exists for just one Stella.
However, unlike the huge restaurant, the tables were simple.
It wasn’t the ridiculous size I saw yesterday, but it was big enough for about 4 people to sit comfortably.
It was the perfect shape for the family to sit around.
I was sitting alone with Stella, facing each other, at a table that was perfect for a family to sit around.
‘This is the reason the servants were whispering about it earlier.’
No one has ever sat at this table except the Arbos royal family.
However, he was shocked when a human man suddenly took his place.
‘But looking at the elves’ attitude, it looks like they hid what happened yesterday well.’
If Stella had ignored what I said and spoke honestly, she wouldn’t have made such a puzzled look.
He must have been in despair.
And he must have been shedding tears as he put the food on the table.
‘Ugh… ‘Your Highness the Princess~’.
I looked at the table, laughing to myself.
Delicious food from the mountains and seas.
There was such a huge amount of food that even words are not enough.
Food so colorful that it makes you feel drowsy.
And Stella, looking at the food, muttered with a stern expression.
“Is it my mistake that the meal looks poor?”
“??”
I think you’re mistaken?
No matter how you think about it, the food on the table was large enough to feed dozens of people.
However, there were beings who sympathized with Stella’s thoughts.
“I’m sorry, Princess. “I will cook more right now.”
“?”
The servants suddenly began to move in unison.
‘What? Are my eyes strange?’
There was so much food on the table that it was difficult to eat it all even with dozens of servants rushing in.
Even the food had such an outstanding appearance that it felt like each and every piece of food had been made with great care.
Stella looked at my puzzled expression and smiled gently.
“I heard that yesterday, because the conversation got longer, you couldn’t eat and slept.”
“Uh… That’s right.”
Stella smiled again and opened her mouth, pointing to the food on the table with her outstretched hand.
“I invited you to apologize for my lack of etiquette towards guests, so please eat to your heart’s content without worrying about others. “If it’s not enough, please tell me.”
“Uh… Okay. Then…”
“And…”
“… ?”
I held the fork in my hand and looked at Stella.
Stella smiled darkly at me and concluded her words.
“The conversation may be long today… Fill your stomach in advance.”
“… “Yes.”
I made a bewildered expression and lifted the fork.
‘I guess I can deal with him at night. We have to meet winter too, so let’s eat quickly.’
Thinking like that, I started to move my hands.
