Chapter 251 – Someone’s Trouble (4)
I mean the king…
Philia called her own father several times. But she couldn’t find a single handful of affection.
“I wasn’t that stupid. Several years, several years. He has changed as if he has become a different person. Her mother says the witch did something, but it seems to me… No, no. Forget it. It is nonsense.”
Philia laughed out loud and lightly brushed off the heavy atmosphere.
“Never mind, this is my problem to solve.”
“Leah… ?”
“If I lose to that illegitimate child, that’s how much my bowl will be. Then I don’t embrace you, you embrace me. That’s all you need.”
Are you a trustworthy person? I thought so briefly. I’m happy, and thank you very much. He has Philia himself. Her heart skipped a beat at the thought of her taking her into her household, rather than simply having a physical relationship with her. Is it a proposal…? I had a thought.
“Yes, it’s not enough, but I…”
“It’s difficult.”
Philia stretches her body like her cat and lets out a long, very deep breath. It was as if she had completely let go of her tension, as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden.
“I thought I’d tease you lightly, but I’m glad you responded so seriously…”
But that’s it. Philia added her words. As if you don’t want to lose.
“If you relax, you will die. You are like a stranger in the desert.”
“It’s me…?”
“Yes, a traveler struggling to live in the harsh desert weather. In the ridiculous weather where there is frost at night and the whole body is cooked during the day, what kills the traveler who has endured for days and days are pieces of embers left by unknown people. If you feel for the faint remaining warmth you find in that piece and close your eyes, what remains for the traveler is a verb.”
To relax is to die. Philia waved her cup of tea in a shallow circular motion. Her fingertips were trembling subtly. However, Marai pretended not to see her and looked away.
“Yes…”
Philia stood alone in the desert. She doesn’t depend on anyone, and she doesn’t want anyone. Silently she was crossing the desert. Marey wished she could be of some help to her, but she looked into her eyes and she couldn’t get her words out.
Her unwavering eyes were shining very clearly. The desert star was pointing her way in red eyes. She wanted to hold Philia’s hand, but it was very sad that her own hand, which had lost her way, could only fit in her pocket.
This topic is over. No matter what she said, no matter what she said, it only shook her philia’s pride. She just thought she was vaguely angry.
“Hmmmm… Hmm… “
Is the silence awkward? Philia cleared her throat slightly. Marey tried to get her to say something, but realized that there was a decoration that stood out from her usual outfit. It wasn’t that the silence was awkward, it was more like she was waiting to be told.
A large red ribbon wrapped around her chest. She didn’t think it fit, to be honest, but I also thought she was subtly cute. Philia seemed to like her, but she was gently stretching her breasts, tying her ribbon and watching Marey’s eyes.
At times like this, she seems to have to do as the vampire princess wants.
“Oh, Leah. That ribbon is so cute.”
“It’s too late to notice.”
Philia closed her eyes as if savoring her scent, took a light breath in, and emptied the remaining black tea in her cup. She couldn’t savor the aroma of the tea, which was nearly cooled and had few leftovers, but she seemed subtly excited about it.
“It’s a pretty ribbon.”
“My brother gave it to me. Whooping… He is too.”
Come to think of it, she heard that she had Philia’s brother. She’d never met her, but Philia often talked about her brother, so he felt friendly even without meeting her in person.
If she’s a child like Philia, how old is she? It felt like she had a little brother. A sister she has never seen or touched. If she was Philia’s younger sister, she would be cute.
“If it looked like Philia, it would be very cute.”
“If you look like me, you’re not cute, you’re pretty!”
Yes yes. Marey laughed lightly. It’s pretty, it’s beautiful. Marey repeated similar words several times until Philia was satisfied. Her slightly pouting lips looked a little angry, but even that she was very cute.
“This is the first time Leah laughs while talking about her sister.”
“Is that so…Because these days she never laughed that kid.”
Philia gripped her ribbon tightly with both her hands. She seemed resentful. She seemed very angry with something. She was drawing someone who didn’t exist here.
“Who is her sister?”
“Hmm… What kind of person is she…”
Philia opened her mouth and bit hers shut. She frowned slightly, then she smiled softly, then let out a small sigh, smiled again, frowned again. It seemed difficult to define anything about her brother.
“Good boy. Nice, so kind, so hard on each other..”
Philia covered her face by touching her forehead a few times. She couldn’t tell what face she was making. She averted her gaze and Philia, who didn’t show her face, took a while before she started talking again.
“She is basically a child without greed. Did she eat as a child or was she sometimes greedy? When I held her hand, she was just a drag. She didn’t say where she wanted to go, she didn’t say what she wanted to do. I just followed what I wanted and what I wanted to do.”
Philia looked at her hand, with her head down. The two hands that were gathered finely were placed neatly on top of each other on the table, but they could not hold each other.
“Once… Yes, she had one teacher whom the boy followed like her mother. She’s only in class once a week, so if it’s only the day before, she’ll come to the room and chatter. What are we going to learn tomorrow, what about tomorrow~ When I heard her talk so excitedly, she fell asleep before I knew it.”
Remilia repeated stroking her own hand.
“I woke up this morning, and I hated going to class. I want to rest while looking at the flowers in the garden. I was tired all day because the previous day was the royal school. It’s already a tough class, so… So she took him by the hand and hid in her yard.”
Hiding where everyone knows. I was too young then. Philia let out a small laugh. It was a story from my childhood. How young are you When she was just a little kid barely reaching her waist, or when she was a little taller than that?
Marei still didn’t know anything about her philia. It was the same for her and Philia. In this way, we narrowed the distance between each other day by day, but there were so many things we didn’t tell each other than what we said.
That really made her philia feel far away.
“I got caught in the end, and he cried out loud. Already, she is a teacher with a fiery personality, so when she says that she is sleepy after I fall in love with her, it is her mother or father. No, she’s trembling because she’s afraid the trash will be angry… I cried all day saying I was sorry and saying I was wrong. All I have to do is say I dragged it… She must have been embarrassed even by the teacher, because she held her tail, which she normally wouldn’t let her touch, into the boy’s hand.”
Philia let out a small sigh. She didn’t seem particularly memorable. Just, just. She was like a memory that simply came to mind, like long hairs growing on her skin. It’s nothing, but she just keeps on bothering me and makes me look back. A memory that leaves her with strange feelings.
“He is a good boy.”
“Yeah, and…Because I’m older than you. You better not call me a child.”
Marey scratched her cheek in embarrassment at Philia’s story. She was older than himself, younger than Philia, and she and her two sisters were a year apart.
“Well, since you’re my brother-in-law, it won’t matter too much. Well, there will be mutual respect in the vacancy, so it doesn’t matter. I’m a kid who doesn’t care about age. Just awkwardly calling her sister~ at first?”
That would be fun. Philia laughed lightly. Her oddly drooping shoulders made her petite frame even smaller and more fragile. Her sun was waning little by little. When she looked at her watch, she had to slowly get up.
“Come on, this is the end of today. I have an appointment in the afternoon. I want to take you home I don’t have a good time.”
Moved along with her philia as it happened. She had a lot to say, but she didn’t know what to say, so she didn’t say anything to either of them. Then, standing at her crossroads, Philia touched Marey’s cheek and then turned around behind her with a smile.
“Hey, Philia. Sorry about Monday.”
Philia let out a small sigh and returned to Marey again. Then she pressed her breast with her index finger, frowning. She looked angry.
“Why did you do something that you should be apologizing for?”
“Sorry.”
Philia smiled and pressed Marey’s cheeks from side to side.
“Don’t bring that up in the future. Okay? It’s just disgusting to be nasty. If I said it’s okay, then it’s okay. I made it clear that this Philia the Blood is fine. But who can blame you? You cannot forgive yourself for doing that.”
“Yes…”
Philia tapped her Marey lightly on the shoulder.
“If you make a mistake, you have a very good attitude of taking responsibility for it. Then.”
Philia showed a strange smile. Her red eyes sparkled with interest.
“Kiss Me.”
I mean here The vampire princess patted her own cheek. Marai laughed and she kissed her white cheeks lightly. Philia said softly, and she pushed Marey’s back toward Illien’s classroom.
She let out a small sigh. Her energy is gone. She couldn’t take her eyes off Philia. She was like her bright cluster of lights, and she kept unconsciously reaching for her hand. And she feels even more painfully about how futile her own hand gestures are.
Whatever it was, there was a kind of wall in her figure as she tried to solve it alone. You can’t see it, but it’s so tall and thick that you can only feel the distance from her Philia before you know it. Even though she was clearly right in front of her, there was an unreachable distance.
Philia and herself are not one. It’s obvious, but I couldn’t help being tired. Contrary to her stagnant thoughts, she arrived in front of Idrien’s laboratory before she knew it. Grabbing her silver handle, her hand twitched at the strange coldness of hers.
Was this doorknob so cold? She just had to force and open the door, but she didn’t like it. The reverberation of Philia, which grows in her heart little by little, remains too long and thick. She doesn’t even brush off easily.
“Why are you hanging around outside the door? Come in quickly!”
A sharp voice is heard from beyond the door, and the door opens immediately. Then, without hesitation, her outstretched hand grabs Marey’s wrist and pulls her into her room.
“Really, I’ve been waiting all lunch…”
Her platinum-colored hair fluttered in front of her, and in front of her, a green-eyed elf bent down to stare at her, frowning.
“It’s still until class time… Oh, I hit it now.”
Before I could finish talking, the class bell rang. Idrien let out a small sigh. Something didn’t seem to like her. Her slick lips seemed to want to say something. But she bit her lip a little, closed her eyes, and smiled softly as if nothing had happened.
“So, did you enjoy your date with the vampire princess?”
However, her eyes were fixed on Marey. Not a single laugh to be found.
“Ah, ah… That… Yes.”
Maray avoided Idrien’s gaze as if she had done something wrong. Marei had no choice but to answer obediently at Idrien’s question about Philia.
“Huh… They say she’s Philia, but she doesn’t even have that princess figure. She doesn’t even look cute. Do you like that type?”
Seeing Idrien’s appeal by gently lifting her breasts with her arms crossed, Marei only dyed her face red with infatuation rising even in the atmosphere of being strangely questioned.
“Labella, I am, and my sister are the same. Is it not enough even though these nuns who are so plump and full of sex every day…?”
I could feel Idrien’s breath coming closer. Marey involuntarily took a step back from her, but even though it was only one step, she pushed his back against the hard door. Her hands were pressing down on the door supporting Marey.
The green eyes, which were brilliantly bright, were dyed black and sticky, and she fixed a boy who was much smaller than herself so that he could not escape.
“Are we not enough?”
“Hey, that’s… So…”
Ravela, Idrien, Illien. And even Julia and Erden.
Even Marey understood correctly that there were countless men who would woo just one person, even one of them, in order to be loved. That is why, in every act, she ruthlessly left traces of herself, committing and violating her ceaselessly, showing a sticky possessive desire towards them.
She was a Marey who understood her own actions in her vague outline, so she couldn’t say anything to Idrien, who was now bruising herself. Jealousy. Yes, because I was jealous. She couldn’t help the thrill in her heart when she saw Edrien conversing with adults who were taller than her and even taller than her.
Is it the same for Idrien? She didn’t say it directly, but she could understand. Why are you still angry? She got her permission from Ravela? You dare?
Marey shook her head at the bad thought of her moment. All of them were precious women to Marey. I have to understand Idrienne’s actions, but I dare to do it. Marai bit her lip. The sudden realization that she has been changing makes her feel a little afraid of herself.
“Perhaps, I feel bad for asking…? That’s… I’m… That’s… I didn’t mean to…”
Idrien’s voice trembled weakly. She seemed afraid. She was like a little animal shivering in the rain. I don’t know if she’s right about her being so much bigger than herself, but she couldn’t help feeling that way.
