Chapter 62 – 62 – Fortunately, It’s a Bright Morning
The fact that the party members watched the lewd betting scene was a great help to my situation, even though it may have caused damage to my mentality. Because my colleagues worked hard to explain to Rod the whole story.
Rod, who learned for sure what happened through cross-testimony, was very embarrassed. However, he did not criticize me at all as he bowed his head and waited for me to be disposed of.
Rather, he comforted and helped him up. Hyungsik said that he was very thankful that he saved his daughter, and that of course it would be better than losing his child forever.
I’m glad it worked out well. Because for a moment I was imagining something terrible.
For example, a roadie who burns all the porters in the world in return for taking his daughter’s virginity.
“It’s some kind of golem.”
But Rod eventually became uncomfortable. This rare incident, in which about 10% of the world’s dragons almost died by falling asleep on the street overnight, ended up being labeled as ongoing, with the culprit never being arrested.
Villena cut open the skin of her decapitated body to reveal her insides. She has white muscles and blue blood. An artificial body flowing with mana instead of her blood.
The ‘Waldenhardt’ that Rod caught was a fake. It was a fake made so similar to the real thing that I wondered how this could happen. This put to shame the fact that I searched the island like a tooth, suppressing my pleasure with its powerful magical power.
Well, I guess that’s why he did such a bold thing because he had some faith in him. Where the most powerful creatures in the world gather.
I don’t know, but I think he is a very dangerous person. It would be nice if we didn’t get involved in the future, but you don’t know what the future holds.
Florica, still on her crutches, gritted her teeth as she leaned against her sister Monica.
“When he broke the boat with me and jumped into the sea, he was carrying a very heavy package. It was big enough to fit three or five fake Waldenhardts. I thought it was a weapon like a great sword or cannon made to deal with dragons. “I thought so.”
“Coincidentally, there are a total of four ‘fake Waldenhardts’ discovered here and there on the island. Personally, I’m surprised. I thought the artificial muscles using luminous vines and the artificial blood using mana were all experimental technologies.”
“I’ll have to go to the Dean of the Magic Tower and ask. Thank you, everyone. The Church of Mithras… Will definitely pay for this.”
These are chilling yet reassuring words. I sighed and looked out the window of the hospital room.
As a result of this incident, not a single dragon required hospitalization. There doesn’t seem to be any case that left any special trauma.
It is incredibly strong to begin with, and the existence of this island itself is a daily adventure for their species.
It’s just that the pleasure was quite stronger than expected… So there were some dragons who had strange thoughts.
“I have a new mission. I am giving up the hemp seed processing business that I was researching under Aunt Rod for a while.”
Nidroga’s cousin muttered solemnly. I foolishly asked what kind of mission was created.
“I will search the continent to find a succubus. There must be a succubus somewhere strong enough to reproduce something like this, even if only on a small scale. And with that guy, I will find a way to recreate today’s events through magical engineering.”
“Just hit your daughter, you idiot.”
Nidrogar, who had been through a lot, lashed out, saying unusually harsh words. His cousin looked very hurt, but unfortunately no one took his side.
Nidroga’s admonition continues, mentioning the battle with Visserk. Nidroga, who was raising his fist towards his cousin and shouting bitter words, suddenly made eye contact with me.
Nidroga’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. Then, his momentum was lost and he desperately avoided eye contact.
And then, while I was going to the bathroom, it disappeared somewhere.
The party members were worried when he suddenly hid without saying a word, but fortunately, the Lord gave them some warning.
“He says he’ll be in his room. He’ll lock the door and won’t come out for a while.”
“You locked the door?”
“That’s right. I suddenly miss it. I often did that when I was young and had troubles.”
Rod suddenly looked at me with a wide smile.
“You are young.”
“···Yes?”
“I’m not saying anything. Oh, that’s right. Bantai-kun? I heard you have a debt, is that correct?”
———–
Lord allowed indefinite rest. You can stay and rest as long as you want and then leave.
In addition, personal awards were also given. I couldn’t help but be embarrassed when Rod said that he had contacted an international bank to repay my debt.
There was no need to be upset just because 100,000 gold ended up in Adamantone’s hands. There must be someone somewhere who would trade two legs for 100,000 gold, but Adamantone Sunstorm, who is rich and loves himself dearly, would not fall into the category of such people.
However, it is very unsettling…
“Where did that bastard disappear to?”
Adamantone, who was imprisoned in a facility that isolates diseased dragons, disappeared somewhere while his guards were neutralized.
Did he escape on his own? Could it be that the Bishop of Waldenhardt really took it out?
In Aetreon’s words, ‘the hero’s half-destroyed holy sword also disappeared,’ so the latter possibility is weighted.
But what value is there in that idiot?
No. Don’t think about troublesome things. Many of my concerns have already been resolved, so there is no need to focus on new ones.
I am a porter. A porter is a person who carries luggage for a party. For that to happen, he must be healthy.
Close your eyes and breathe in the morning breeze. The air at the beach is extremely refreshing. Every step I take on the sand feels good.
So let’s run now. Left foot. Left foot.
“You’ve been working hard since morning, huh? You even carried a heavy bag on purpose.”
“That’s because I’m a porter. There’s no point in exercising without weights on.”
I opened my eyes. Eshen, dressed in light clothing like in Chechenyi, was tagging along.
Cool neckline and slim abs. And that friendly smile. I feel purified just by looking at it.
“It’s been gloomy since the morning. Hehe.”
“Can’t I steal a little?”
“Okay, kid. Just look at it. It’s so beautiful that I can’t take my eyes off it, right?”
“It’s a cheesy thing to say, but I forgive it because it’s true.”
“What, what if you don’t forgive me?”
Eshen nudges me with his elbow and laughs. I tried to respond with a smile, but I felt like something was going in the wrong direction so I quit.
“If this goes the way it usually does, I think we’ll end up provoking each other and then going straight to bed.”
“Why not?”
“Nothing can’t be done. But let’s just finish the routine. You have to have good energy to maintain it.”
“Yes, it’s good to be in a mood, but it’s still better to be sincere. Why would I fall for you?”
Because he smiles and shows his affection casually, my heart suddenly aches.
Just a few days ago, in front of Eshen, I violated Nidrogar as if I were showing off. He said he wanted to do that from the beginning, openly revealing his desire without hiding a single thing.
Will it be okay like this? A feeling of guilt comes over me.
But… For some reason, Eshen didn’t seem to think anything of it.
“2 to 11. That’s amazing.”
“What?”
“The scoreboard of that day. Once with a lift and once with a back.”
I, who had been sipping a water bottle while running without thinking about it, fell to my knees, spitting water out of his nose.
Eshen took the day’s souvenir of paper out of his pocket and unfolded it, jumping around in place until I calmed down.
“Honestly, I’ve never seen Nidroga shed tears in such an unsightly way, but I felt relieved. He always pretends to be arrogant, noble, and strong, but he’s stronger than me, so I can’t hit him.”
“If he was weak, I would have said he was too weak to hit me. If you think about it, it’s really hard to find an opponent that’s half as strong.”
As I stood up, wiping my mouth and started running with a quick glance, Eshen followed suit, snickering.
“As you.”
“I’m a half-favorite opponent?”
“In bed, asshole. No fighting.”
It’s half and half. Was it half and half? All the days happily intertwined with Eshen pass by like a flash of light.
Shit. I need to focus on exercising.
“Of course, I have a slight advantage. I watch over them a lot, so it’s even 50%.”
“Wait a minute. I can’t stand that.”
“Was I wrong? Ring me again?”
“···When did I cry?”
“Don’t you remember when I took Ada away from Chesheny? The way she looked at me with tears in her eyes was as cute as a hamster.”
“Cheshenira. I miss the old days.”
I twisted the corner of my mouth.
“But aren’t you always like that? You’re no better than Nidroga, and you talk a lot about begging while cumming.”
“Oh, do you know how to say things like that now?”
···It seems that my surroundings encourage a bit of sadistic tendencies. I feel like Eshen and the sisters are trying to force the bully side out of me. Should I say that it feels like I am being remodeled to suit my tastes?
Nidroga had to bear the aftermath. The future is bleak. What kind of sex will I be having a year from now?
“Five shots in a row, huh?”
“Yes. It was five shots in a row. I guess I forgot my promise.”
“It would be a loss if I forgot, but of course I remember. Is that possible?”
“Nothing more than that. Looking forward to dinner.”
Eshen looked at me with wide eyes.
“···I think you did a good job of not asking for energy and saving your wish. It’s not like there’s a pregnant woman juice manufacturing factory between your legs.”
“Don’t force yourself to make up words. Someone will hear it and misunderstand it.”
“It’s the same as the truth. These days, I’m so sperm-“
As the sound of someone’s footsteps got closer, Eshen was startled and stopped what he was saying.
Florica’s recovery was fast.
Although she had completely turned her back on the Mithraic Order, she had become an isolated member, and although she might be excommunicated and labeled an apostate in the future, Florica seemed undeterred.
Mithra’s philosophy, which emphasizes discipline and categorical statements, first teaches you how to be strict with yourself. Even though her body was not healthy, Florica forced herself to move every day.
There’s never been a time when I didn’t see Florica every morning. She Florica greeted me with her face brightening over the past few days.
“Good morning, Bantai.”
“Good morning, Florica. Are you running straight from the hospital?”
“What? Are you two close?”
“Rather than saying we’re close, we just bump into each other while warming up in the morning. How can I say I’m close to you all?”
“He’s acting pitiful again. I still grind my teeth when I think about what happened to Bisserk. He’s just hitting me in the back again. I’m going to kill you.”
He spoke aggressively, but he must have been sad to see his gaunt smile return in response. Eshen grumbled and handed over the water bottle.
“Do it while drinking. I don’t want to see dry lips.”
“Thanks.”
Florica took a sip and handed the water bottle back. And she asked.
“I heard it from a bit far away. What do you mean by Jeongja Saeng?”
This time she pretended that Eshen was drinking water. Eshen, who had barely escaped being subjected to an unsightly spout like mine, sighed and began to come up with a new excuse.
Unfortunately, it seems like she didn’t have anything to say.
“Never mind.”
“···Well, let’s do that.”
Florica was embarrassed and turned her head shyly. And she put her head out towards me with a little distance between them.
“Did you hear the news, Bantai? Adamantone.”
“Ah. You escaped?”
“Not that. They say people from House Sunstorm are coming to this island at full speed right now. They say they’ll be arriving in a little while.”
“···I beg your pardon?”
