Chapter 170 – 38. Doll. (3)
In the conference room where a cool river breeze was gently blowing, Allen, who had been tapping his palms with a baton, glanced at the crew members and said the first thing.
“I went west.”
The wave of that one word spread to the entire crew. Different reactions. But there was no rejection or denial whatsoever.
If Danju Allen says he’s going, go. Firm trust and faith in Danju was already installed in the crew.
“What are you going for?”
The furry Gis asked as he pulled out the meat he ate earlier at lunch with his fingernails, which was stuck in his teeth.
“I’m going to catch the doll.”
“…… A doll?”
“They described it as a doll possessed by a demon.”
Then, Pergamond, a muscle man from the north, snorted.
“Westerners too. I can barely handle one doll, tsk. Even my three-year-old nephew is stronger than a doll!”
Of course, that would be the case if it were just a doll.
“Dolls are objects from the destroyed Mage Tower. It is very ugly.”
“So, isn’t it a doll?”
“It’s embarrassing to be so underestimated. No matter how flimsy the West is, you’re not going to babble about dolls or anything like that? …… It is probably a test subject of wizards.”
When the topic of the magic tower came up again, Gisu said, “Ahhhhh,” And scratched the back of his head with the hand he had been poking his teeth with in disgust.
“No, Seapearl, you messed up the shit of the Mage Tower!”
Of course, mercenaries are people who make a living by cleaning up other people’s shit, so it’s not okay to be too peaceful.
“Still, it’s the West for the first time in a while. When it comes to nightlife, everyone knows that it’s the West, right? If you finish the mission safely, I’ll let you enjoy it to the fullest, so let’s all cheer up.”
“Yeah.”
“My employer wants to leave as soon as possible, so I am ready to leave within two days. Finish what everyone was doing, and fix the equipment. There’s a long way to go, so make sure you’re prepared. …… And this is your first expedition, right? We don’t do it too tight, so don’t worry too much. Instead, if you keep only what you have to protect, freedom is guaranteed to the fullest. Got it?”
As this was their first expedition as part of Allen-Mercenary Corps, the three men and women nodded their heads saying that they understood at Danju’s words. In particular, Kancho, the youngest member with alopecia areata, had a mixed expression of tension and anticipation as it was the first time he had gone on an expedition to a distant place.
The new Corey braced his chin like a newly-received private, and boasted to Kancho that all he had to do was trust him and follow him.
“Yes, senior!”
“Baby.”
Anyway, the meeting ended like that, and the members dispersed and prepared to go on an expedition.
· · ·
Viola has been sighing a lot lately.
The business continues to prosper, the mercenary corps is intact, and obviously everything is going well…… , This heart that is empty of something.
“Whoa….”
Staring at the river in her sunset, she let out a long sigh and rested her chin on her chin. And the deputy owner, Palmer, who was watching the scene quietly. … Soon, his eyebrows twisted asymmetrically.
Her face, reddened in the glow of the sunset, clearly had something like affection, longing, and frustration that could not be hidden.
Realizing what it was for, Bu Dan-ju smiled meaningfully.
“…… When will my sister get married?”
As Palmer muttered to himself so that everyone could hear, Viola’s eyebrows narrowed slightly.
“Suddenly, what are you talking about again?”
“You haven’t made any progress yet, have you? Did you hold my hand?”
“What do you mean all of a sudden, that?”
“What do you mean? I mean, Allen Danzoo, Allen Danzoo!”
Her speechless moment, her jaw stopped, she only glanced him up and down once, then turned her gaze back out of her window.
“I’m so frustrated I’m going crazy! I never imagined that my sister would be so sukmaek?! I thought the fact that I never had a girlfriend until now was because of my real job!”
“Oh what are you talking about! Allen Danju and I… , Is it just a business relationship?”
“The business relationship sucks. There’s so much love dripping from your eyes…. Did my sister and I see each other for a day or two? I know what you’re thinking just by looking at your face?! You have to fool the people you are going to fool!”
“… It’s not like that.”
“At this point, can’t you feel that it can’t go on like this anymore? You say you have to push first? If you do this, you will become a real old maid ghost!”
“This guy has nothing to say!”
“Sister, I am not joking. Now, it’s something that you should take a little more seriously. Are you really missing out on this? …… No, sister. Seriously really. Honestly, Allen Danzoo, you’re a decent person for me to see, aren’t you? It’s just like my older sister. The back is neat, how nice.”
When Palmer’s conversation was so serious, even the viola Danju was speechless.
… To be honest, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel that way at all. In fact, she often fantasized about being with him. They gave birth to three or four condolences.
“Ah, when a man and a woman meet, they develop a good feeling and can do it! Allen Danju is handsome. And young and talented! … Yes age! What… , That’s pretty good. Still, my sister is still pretty, and she’s still in the top 10! That’s the most important thing!”
In love theory, Viola, who is a young nerd, has a crush on Palmer’s words.
“Dagon, how long has he followed you around? That guy’s personality is that he’s a bitch, but he has eyes to see. My older sister, even if you are among young people, you won’t notice it at all?!”
The viola Danju, who had been rolling her eyes around with her nonchalant expression, opened her mouth very carefully.
“…………… Really?”
“Oh, really, then! … And it’s not easy to have children when it’s too late. Are you going to live alone for the rest of your life? Then, Allen Danju is really, really, really the last chance. What do you do if you regret leaving the carriage, you have already left! And even there, there are a lot of people waiting to get on!”
“…… Of course, if you can do it, it’s good, but that’s not to say that you make up your mind in a hurry…….”
“Ah, you really are a frustrating older sister!”
Palmer banged his fist on my chest. Other things are so cool, but I don’t know why it’s so frustrating in love theory!
Even Viola, who was always confident and lofty, couldn’t help but pay attention to her subordinate when it came to her love business.
“From my point of view, Allen Danju also seems to have a crush on you, right? Other things are very discerning, don’t you know why you’re so unaware of this? …… After all this, you really look like a dog chasing chickens?”
“Really, do you see that? I think you have a crush on me… ?”
“Ugh, my sister, uh, if it wasn’t for me, she wouldn’t have even decided to get married for the rest of her life!”
Bu Dan-ju looked at the viola Dan-ju with a firm determination.
“Yeah, good. Just like my sister said, rushing in too quickly can be a bit of a burden on that side too. So, let’s go step by step. I see?”
“… How?”
“I don’t want anything too big. Grab your hand Even just your hands!”
After all, it was too much greed to wish for a kiss or a caress from Sukmaek Viola from the beginning.
I felt like I had to hold hands first to make progress or not.
“Get a little more active. The world’s viola, yes, don’t be afraid of just something like this, okay?!”
“OK got it… !”
Palmer made a solemn declaration, banging a bean lightly on the table with his rocky fist.
“Because I won’t turn my sister into an old maid ghost!”
……… Even Palmer, who declared that, in fact, she had never had a lover.
· · ·
Late the evening of the very day Palmer’s solemn declaration was made.
There was a sudden visit from Allen at Viola House. Viola, who was doing some small business in her bedroom, heard her message that he had come and hurried to her drawing room.
“Ah, sorry for coming without an appointment. I don’t think I’ll have time tomorrow….”
“No. It’s okay.”
Between us—-, I couldn’t bear to say the words and swallowed it in my heart.
When Viola saw Allen, her heart pounded strangely unlike usual, and her eyes wandered back and forth. …… It reminded me of the conversation I had with Palmer after dinner earlier. Neither she nor she could have imagined that their meeting with Allen would come so quickly. The point at which her heart wasn’t even properly prepared yet.
“Wait, would you like to sit down?”
“Ah yes.”
Allen sat down in the chair the viola had given him. Soon the tea was served, and a teacup was placed in front of each of them.
“By the way, why… ?”
“Oh, I am leaving soon. Two days later, west.”
“…… Yes?”
“The request came in. You know the rumor going west right now? A doll possessed by evil spirits. That’s why I left for the West.”
……… Ah……….
Viola felt her heart thump to the point of her moment being strange. …… If we go west, we won’t see each other again for at least four or five months.
To be honest, there’s nothing strange about a mercenary going on an expedition, but his expeditions were so frequent that even Viola was a little surprised. He’s only been two or three months since he returned from his southern expedition!
“Okay.”
… But that’s all she can say. It’s a very good thing if your reputation grows and people are looking for you in the west!
“It’s personally very unfortunate that I won’t be able to spend much time with Danju.”
The viola trooper was confused for a moment as to whether those words were spoken out of courtesy or from the heart. She hadn’t taken it lightly before, but after Palmer told her that Allen seemed to have a crush on her, she couldn’t take it lightly. …… A sense of anticipation that Allen’s sobriety might be the same as his own.
Momentary silence.
She took a sip of the tea and moistened her mouth.
It’s been a little over 4 years since the two got to know each other. …… Of course, the placenta was separated, but it was not enough time for affection to ripen.
Viola had no choice but to admit it now. My feelings for him changed from interest in his talented person called 522 to liking for men—-.
“For a moment… , Do you want some fresh air?”
“Yes.”
The two went out onto the terrace.
The swaying and swaying surface of the water sparkled beautifully with the bright lights colliding with it.
Beautiful night scenery.
The two stood side by side on the railing and watched it quietly.
“Allen Danju is going well. You can keep going like that. Then, 10 robbers, someday.”
“The virtue of the viola master is great. …… I always get help.”
“Still, it’s your credit for achieving this much. From what I can see, it’s great. You, too, will one day stand on an equal footing with me. I’m sure.”
Viola Danju smiled lightly. …… Unlike before, she now knows how to use those soft smiles, soft emotions, and soft words.
“Well done. Meantime. Of course, I believe that you will do well in the future. … In the West, do well and come back.”
His smile as he looked at her deepened.
“I understand, Danlord.”
Compassionate gazes collided.
Still, the feelings that had grown slowly over the years were far from accidental feelings that were simply swept away by the atmosphere.
It was only then that Viola realized.
I thought to myself, I need this man.
Lover? Marriage? …… It wasn’t just to satisfy social relationships.
For reasons unknown, she always knew that he could fill the hole she felt was missing.
Maybe fate.
If you hadn’t seen the number 522, your relationship wouldn’t have been made.
All of this, maybe it was the design of the universe.
The viola Danju mustered courage.
She moved her hand slowly towards his, which was resting on the railing.
And, her hands folded over his.
Then she briefly went to her folded hands, then his gaze turned towards her again.
At the same time, his smile deepened.
Now she wanted to check.
Well, his heart
Are you the same as yourself?
“Article……… , Good…………….”
While easily cutting off the head of the monster,
The word “I like you” Didn’t come out easily as if it was stuck in my throat.
After staring at her for a long time, he finally smiled and pushed her face as it was.
And,
Overlapping,
The lips of both men and women.
………… Ah………….
The manager told me to hold hands, but
I even stopped kissing her.
Truly, a pleasure that cannot be put into words.
To be sure, she had never felt such an ecstatic sensation before.
She closed her eyes and left her own body to his slow, intense kiss.
I like.
Without saying,
Those feelings were passed on to each other.
The cool night air passes lovingly over the two hot bodies.
