Chapter 90 – Barefoot Stronghold (13)
Lily waited for the mana to fill up.
At this pace, before today’s meeting is over
She told him she seemed to be able to cast a hypnotic spell one more time.
Everyone was busy eating.
Lily glanced at Starchis,
She looked at the cheek she had kissed.
Even though I didn’t receive a kiss, I gave it
Her heart pounded and it was good.
She secretly stroked her own lips.
She was recalling the soft touch she felt in him.
If there’s just one thing on your mind…
“Elzain, would you like more?”
“Yes, it is delicious. Starchis did it right?”
“Haha, thank you for the compliment.”
That look.
Every time I see Elza, I feel like I’m melting
I liked that expression.
Earlier,
She couldn’t see when hypnotized
It was a serious expression.
.
.
.
With stories
The dining table was filled.
A battle between the Aid Party and the Sky Dragon.
The story of Lily training with her mentoring her.
How Starches spent their time and so on.
Most of the food was gone.
Now everyone is more than food,
He had his hand on the drink.
A light intoxication took over the room.
Starchis opened his mouth.
“Right, Russ. Are you famous these days?”
“Uh?”
“I got a lot of calls because of you.”
Even Russ knows that she has recently become famous.
She felt it through her skin.
But Starchis knowing that is another matter.
There is only one reason why she is drawn if she contacts him on her own business.
Transfer offer.
That’s not it
“… A transfer issue?”
“Uh? Ah yes?”
“You know, how much trouble I have with that.”
“You must have worked really hard, Russ.”
“…No.”
All of their proposals, which had bothered them so far, seemed to be rewarded.
Russ was happy to be praised.
She pretended otherwise.
I couldn’t show off in front of Stion.
More than she is great,
Aid party members are much better
I felt a lot.
From trivial tips to precise know-how.
I learned several skills that would only come out through experience.
“There are other Aid party members who teach me well and take care of me.”
“There are things you learn quickly.”
Stion spat out a word thoughtlessly.
Stion praises her
Starchis suddenly became curious.
“Hyung, do you think Russ is good?”
He thought for a while,
He said his honest thoughts.
“… It’s a semi-A grade.”
“Uh? Okay?”
“Yes?”
“I didn’t sit still while you were hurt.”
“How long have you been at your party and you’re already in A rank?”
“Experience is power, Starchis. I’ve built up a lot. It would have been impossible without talent in the first place.”
Stion passed the food in his mouth with alcohol,
He straightened his waist and looked at the Starchis party members.
“I hear there is a story that you will become an official saint too.”
He asked towards Bien.
“A formal saintess?”
Starchis also looked at Bien in surprise.
Vienne didn’t know Stion was talking to her,
She was slightly startled and forgot the vegetables she had picked up for snacks.
“…Me?”
It was also the first time she had heard of it.
“Ah… It’s not.”
“No, I heard you. Almost certainly Who have you been lately… Haven’t you heard from Sister Helen?”
“…”
Be diligent, Sister Helen had said.
I hadn’t heard of the official saintess.
“I didn’t hear.”
“Um… So, was it a secret from you?”
“I… I have no intention of becoming one.”
Bien said.
She knew she wasn’t a saint.
Due to the sincere affection felt for Starchis
Even jealousy and unsettled thoughts.
Not even as nice as her friend her Casey.
Besides, if she becomes a saint
Both body and mind must be dedicated to God.
Helping the medical staff and living in the church
Unlike ordinary apprentice saints,
If she becomes a saint, she moves across the country
You have to go to help the elderly or the underprivileged.
She could not believe it suited her temper her.
Finally, from the moment she becomes an official saintess,
Marriage, etc., Cannot be tied to one man.
She wasn’t sure if it was dogmatically impossible, but
To the formal saints who are currently active
It was certain that there were no men.
In terms of feeling, maybe meeting a man
It seemed impossible.
“… I will continue my work as a gatherer.”
“Okay..? If I become a formal saint, won’t I be able to gather?”
“…Yes. I have to go serve.”
“Um… What is it? I thought you would know.”
“If there was such a thing, I would have told S-Starchis.”
Bien looked at Stachis and said.
“I’m not hiding anything from you…”
Once again, Starchis had the feeling that Bien knew something about her.
She has nothing to hide,
It sounded like you want to know if you have something to hide.
“Kheuheum.. That… Still, it’s great. Enough to say that.”
Starchis tried to ignore her words.
She took a sip of wine.
“Starchis, but when will our party activities resume?”
It was Lily.
“Aren’t the rough preparations over now?”
“Yes, but there are still some paperwork to do. You’ve become a B-class.”
-Tok tok
Rose touched Starchis from the side.
“Do you have any papers now?”
“Yes?”
“Give it to me, please. I’ll take care of it.”
Again, Elzain solves problems directly related to the manager’s job.
Take out
If you’re not careful, Elsaine will attack you.
Russ, who had raised her glass to drink wine for a moment,
Putting her back down to speak.
However, that does n’t mean that nothing came out of her mouth.
Russ tried to stop Elsaine, but
She couldn’t come up with any justification for doing so.
It’s not like she’s going to be a manager
You said you were going to sort out the paperwork.
She said she would help for a while.
However, after that she
An ominous future was drawn as if he would become a manager.
If Elsaine does well here,
Because the reason for refusal disappears.
“Only answer questions from the side. Then I’ll take care of it quickly.”
“Ummm..”
Starchis looks at the party members.
No one seemed to have anything to say about it.
Starchis keeps feeling his heart shake.
Her head she rejects Rose, but
Her breasts her embrace Rose.
“Okay then. Let’s eat everything and try again.”
“Then, if you do well, you can be a manager, right?”
“What if?”
“I will work hard.”
Showing great determination even in light things
Starchis laughed because Rose was funny.
And Lily was still watching that smile.
Ever since she learned hypnotic magic,
There was a part that made her feel at ease.
I feel like I won’t lose Starchis no matter what.
It seemed to have a strong back.
But the more I look at that subtly happy expression, the more
She started to feel the same way she did when she didn’t know magic.
I don’t know why,
It was empty.
“Looks like you’ve finished eating, but let’s look around the base. Let’s see what it actually looks like.”
Stion suggests.
Starchis looked at the bowls of the participants.
Did everyone eat enough?
The dishes were put down.
“Does anyone want to eat more?”
“I ate it all.”
“Me too.”
I was planning to visit once.
Starchis had a lot of things she wanted to brag about.
In the first place, I wanted to set it up as a party atmosphere rather than a dining spot.
It was nice to just walk around with a glass.
“Okay? Then, shall we take a look around from the third floor?”
“Oh, wait a minute, Starchis. Before I look around, take a look at that bathroom..”
Rose apologized.
She gets up
I wiped around her mouth her.
“I go too.”
Vien, who has been looking at Rose, rises from her seat with her.
“Do you know where the bathroom is?”
“I saw it on the way.”
“OK got it. Go.”
Before Rose Left,
Hit the ball affectionately with Stachis
Kiss the cheek
Starchis raised his hand awkwardly.
He showed a cute reaction that made his body stiff.
Glance.
Again, Lily stared at him.
If earlier it seemed like my heart was empty
It hurts now.
After Elsaine and Bien left
Weakly blushing and smiling
The more I watched him burst, the more so.
Even the smallest thing makes me cry
Negative emotions that come out
I couldn’t control it.
I couldn’t stand it any longer.
Suddenly, I hear something snapping in my head.
Even though there is a way, I have been patient for a long time.
She got up from her seat.
“Starchis, I have something to say.”
She calls him
Check the amount of mana accumulated in the body.
“What is it, sister?”
“It is difficult here. Can you come with me for a moment?”
Russ looks at Lily.
I wanted to know what they were up to.
“Miss Lily, can you just tell me?”
Russ asks.
“Yes.”
Firmly, she answered.
Sensing a slightly unusual atmosphere
Starchis laughed and got up.
“Ahaha, everyone has something they want to say secretly. All right, sister.”
Starchis didn’t want the party atmosphere to die down.
Even if it’s a serious story, after listening
You just have to keep it in your heart and not show it.
“I’ll be gone for a while. When the kids come back, tell them to wait for a while.”
After he spoke to Russ and Stion,
I got up and brushed off my clothes.
“Oops.”
Are you still not used to it?
When she gets up with her head her bowed forward
The necklace almost falls into the bowl.
He cherished the necklace again,
I smiled at how good it was.
“Quickly.”
Lily clenches her fists.
It’s trivial things, but I keep getting nervous
It becomes difficult to resist the urge.
She was like this even though she knew how to control her emotions because she was a magician.
“Shall we go?”
Starchis covered his chest and went out the door.
She didn’t know what she was going to say, she was nervous
She didn’t show off.
Because leaders do that.
For a while, I walked out to a distance where I couldn’t hear the people in the restaurant.
Starchis turns around.
I looked at Lily, who was following me.
“Sister, what are you talking about?”
“Not here.”
“Yes?”
He looks around
“No one listens, sister.”
“… Still. A room… A room would be nice.”
“A room?”
“Starches. Go to your room.”
“…It doesn’t matter. Are you saying you have to hide that much?”
Let Lily be extremely cautious
I’m just getting anxious
Nod
Lily nods silently.
“… Okay, sister. Follow me.”
Starchis started to lead again.
Lily prepares for magic
She suppressed her emotions.
