Chapter 507 – Chapter 507. Lucifer (4)
Lee Ho-yeon, who came out of the living room at Alice’s house, wandered around the front door, her legs trembling nervously.
“Deep breath. Deep breath…”
Whoa. Whoa.
He inhales slowly and then exhales. Soon, her heart pounds at the thought of Ellis coming.
‘What should I say… ?’
In fact, there is nothing to think about. There are already 4 girls in the room, all that remains is to be honest.
“… That’s a problem because it’s difficult.”
I wonder if I’ve been fussing about saying it for nothing, but if it’s not now, I won’t be able to say it in the future.
Nervous, Lee Ho-yeon turned on the sincerity mode in his heart.
[Clear mentality].
He is conscious of the perks that have always guarded his feelings.
You may not be aware of it, but it must be there.
Can’t you control that?
“… I don’t think so.”
I decided to be honest, but I don’t know if it has anything to do with [Distinct mental strength].
Belt ring-
‘Come.’
But he had no time to think further.
I heard the sound of Alice passing through the gate, and soon the front door would open.
Lee Ho-yeon thought of her first words to Elise and drove away the awkwardness in her heart.
“Hmmmm. Hmmm~.”
After leaving the student council room, Elise returns to her house.
Munsu-rin’s words that she would take responsibility and accept permission from other agencies seemed to win thousands of troops.
‘I’m sure everyone will admit this.’
It was a very satisfactory negotiation, as they did not give up any interests.
Returning to her house, imagining the eyes of her sister and her mother who would look at her proudly, Alice opened her eyes wide when she saw Lee Ho-yeon standing in her front door.
“Yes?”
“Hello, Alice.”
“… What are you doing? Why are you at my house? I haven’t heard from you. Oh, did your sister call you?”
As I said to Moon Su-rin, Lucifer also has a deep relationship with Lee Ho-yeon.
Irene may have told Lee Ho-yeon, so she might come home.
“Did you come to pick me up because of the call that I was coming? That’s kind of nice.”
Alice smiled bashfully and approached Lee Ho-yeon.
I was good at negotiating, but I couldn’t help but be happy if there was an unexpected reward.
However, Lee Ho-yeon smiled shyly and met Alice’s eyes.
“That’s right… But I thought we might have a conversation.”
“…?”
Alice, who was about to hug Lee Ho-yeon, blinked at her awkward eyes.
The trembling eyes and the lips that I couldn’t tell whether it was embarrassing or shy.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a flustered look.
“Well, I just had something to say to you.”
Lee Ho-yeon licked her lips again and continued.
Wearing a clean suit, Elise looked sexier than usual.
Fortunately she seemed in good spirits, but she listened to herself and when she suddenly crumpled her expression how much her heart ached.
“What do you mean? I have something to tell you right now, can’t I tell you later? Is it very urgent?”
“… Yes. It’s urgent.”
“…?”
Lee Ho-yeon looked at Alice, who tilted her head, and took a deep breath at her again.
Okay.
It is a confession that must be made someday.
She even considered saying it after the fake dungeon plan, but she tried to be honest without thinking it through.
‘How should I speak naturally?’
Whatever you say, the beginning is important.
Suddenly, ‘There are 4 women living in my house. But now I’m here haha,’ how crazy would she see herself.
Lee Ho-yeon spoke carefully.
“You said you went to the academy because of Lucifer, right?”
“I negotiated with the student president and formed a team to track down Lucifer. Perhaps the Hunter Association or other organizations will cooperate soon.”
“That’s great? Alice, you took on such an important job. You worked hard.”
“Of course. They say they’re targeting you, how can you stay still?”
“…”
As soon as Lee Ho-yeon heard Alice’s words, her expression hardened.
‘Fucked.’
Fuck. Really fucked up.
It was honestly exciting.
She went directly to the academy to negotiate because of her.
To Alice who says that, the truth is that I and her live-in partners have four. Should she say the same thing?
This one is innocent even with her sword.
“So, what do you want to say? She has to tell her sister the outcome of the negotiations.”
Elise looked at Lee Ho-yeon with her hand on her waist.
She’d enjoy Alice as long as she was sitting in a comfy spot drinking tea and idling around, but she doesn’t have to be like this on the porch.
“… I have a confession to make, Miss Ellis.”
“Yes?”
Why did she suddenly say something strange, but Lee Ho-yeon’s expression was so serious.
It’s everyday that Lee Ho-yeon says bullshit, but she’s playful and she’s never had such a serious expression.
“You know what happened when Irene first met Lucifer?”
“Yeah. While looking for her sister’s acquaintances, she happened to meet people fighting Lucifer.”
“… Those acquaintances are people I know.”
“Really? It’s amazing.”
It is certainly strange that Lee Ho-yeon knows the acquaintances that Lucifer attacked, but what does that mean?
“But they don’t have a place to live because of their circumstances… So they live with me.”
“You live together? It’s a pretty spacious house to live alone, but… Ah.”
Alice, who suddenly wondered what she was talking about, caught Lee Ho-yeon’s worried expression and her heavy air current.
At the same time, she feels a tingling sensation as if a hammer had been hit on her head.
Twenty-twenty memories of her from a few days ago come to mind.
The memory of hearing about Lee Ho-yeon’s cohabitants from Irene.
She naturally thought of arguing with Lee Ho-yeon, but as soon as she returned from her important post today, she met Lee Ho-yeon and she forgot about it for a moment.
‘… I don’t think I heard it from her sister.’
Looking at Lee Ho-yeon’s nervous expression, it seemed that she was not belatedly confessing to Irene after listening to her.
Be honest before you get caught.
‘What are you thinking?’
Ellis began her act as if she did not know it naturally.
“Are you a woman?”
“… Yes.”
“How many are there?”
“4 people….”
“What? Four? Are they all girls?”
“To be precise, her friend’s younger sister is also there, so there are five of them…”
“Then there are only 5 women? Are you kidding me?”
“Well, I didn’t try to hide it, I just didn’t have a chance to talk…”
Elise looked at Lee Ho-yeon hesitantly and smiled at her spirits.
In fact, she was upset when she heard Irene, but she was even more dumbfounded when she actually heard.
She felt like giving her a slap on the cheek.
‘… It could be because of the curse.’
But Alice knows that Lee Ho-yeon is cursed.
His curse is obviously related to women.
It must be part of that that she brought in four of her cohabitants.
Besides, no matter how trashy a man is, he has no intention of giving up Lee Ho-yeon.
Alice said she was confident.
I admit that there are women who have been ‘lucky’ to have relationships with Lee Ho-yeon first.
Thanks to her preoccupation effect, she also thinks that receiving Lee Ho-yeon’s affection is inevitable.
Only one thing is important.
No matter how many women Lee Ho-yeon was around, she never changed her belief that she was the best.
Elise’s self-confidence was further strengthened as she also had abilities that matched her excellent appearance.
She’s left with a clear victory and she doesn’t have to stay out of the way.
‘I can’t just let it go.’
Living together is a different matter, of course.
Being together is such an important thing.
They say that if someone you have a crush on has a record of living together, there are people who won’t even start dating, but living together with not just one person, but four people, is something that shouldn’t be overlooked.
As a woman, she couldn’t stand being angry and jealous.
‘I’ll have to listen to the explanation about the curse later.’
We expect that the reason why Lee Ho-yeon is close to a woman is because of the curse, but she gets angry first and takes what she deserves.
Even if she knows the circumstances of her opponent, she will get what she can get.
This is the basis of negotiations.
After meeting Moonsu-rin, Ellis tells her that she has become a master at negotiating.
After organizing her thoughts, Elise continued her words while glaring at Lee Ho-yeon with her hand on her waist.
“Why are you saying that all of a sudden? Are you trying to fight?”
“… It can’t be.”
“Then why? You know I won’t get a good answer.”
She attacked Lee Ho-yeon with her snappy tone.
All I want is to have her stay at Alice’s house for a week or so. She has to be angry with herself to get the word out.
“Sorry.”
“I’m not asking for an apology. Why did you bring up that story?”
Even Alice knew that there was no reason.
This is the ‘Don’t you know why I’m mad?’ Between lovers. Same invincible word.
Just as if she had to be criticized even if she told her the reason for her anger, she just wanted Lee Ho-yeon to lower her tail.
Lee Ho-yeon bowed her head as she thought of Alice, and Alice smiled at her.
She now has to hear her case after telling her to stay at her own house for a week or so.
At that time, Lee Ho-yeon raised her head.
“… For a more serious relationship.”
“Yes?”
Alice listened to Lee Ho-yeon’s sudden words.
“Ellis. I wanted to approach you more sincerely.”
“Ah…?”
“I was speaking honestly so that there were no lies in our relationship. I’m sorry, Ellis.”
Admit it now
She knew how disrespectful her behavior was to other women.
She was late, but she sincerely apologized even now.
Lee Ho-yeon, who made eye contact with Alice and apologized, bowed her head.
If Alice slapped her on the cheek, she would be slapped, and if she kicked her in the shin, she would survive.
But Alice couldn’t move right away.
‘…… What?’
Elise, who blinked her eyes at her sudden words, raised her hand to her own face.
I feel the hot cheeks touch her fingers.
‘This crazy bitch.’
Alice had been disappointed in herself for the first time in a long time.
What if I just fall for that level?
Was she only this much of a woman?
Alice shook her head like a girl denying her first love.
Her own resistance was too easily undone.
What is a true relationship like?
In the end, it doesn’t change that the bad guy is over there.
Alice is the victim and the playboy is Lee Ho-yeon.
However… The obvious statement of wanting a more serious relationship makes my heart flutter.
Alice was already colored by Lee Ho-yeon.
When she came to her senses, her full heart had colored Ellis so much that she could not escape.
“Ego hurt. This is so unfair…”
It’s never OK to do things like this.
You have to react somehow.
‘What?’
No matter how long I waited, Alice’s reaction never came.
Raising his head slightly at her strangeness, Lee Ho-yeon watched as Elise’s clenched fists trembled.
“Ellis…?”
“… Pissed off.”
“I’m sorry. I, um… I’ll do anything you want.”
“One week.”
“Yes?”
“Stay at my house for a week. Otherwise, I will never forgive you.”
“Uh… I get it. Is that enough?”
There’s a lot to think about, but the determined look on Elise’s face made her think she’d have to agree.
“I’m still not angry.”
“Yep.”
“… Just one hit for me. I just can’t let it go.”
The original plan was to continue pretending to be angry and gain the upper hand in her relationship with Lee Ho-yeon, but Alice realized that she was surprisingly blunt.
“Okay. I’ll be right.”
Lee Ho-yeon closed her eyes and spread her arms.
I was thinking of grabbing at least the crotch of my pants if I got really angry, but it’s okay if I get hit once.
“… Be careful. Bite your teeth.”
I was so resentful of myself for falling for such words, but it was absurd to just move on.
Eris clenched her fists in an effort to relieve this resentment.
