Chapter 4 – Let’s Be Close in the Future
@
Jiah Kang hates sleeping.
This is because if you close your eyes, you will have nightmares every day.
The nightmare was not a cute dream with ghosts or cockroaches.
A dream in which you helplessly watch your family members being murdered.
It must have been a terrible dream.
Every time she had a dream, she couldn’t help but groan as she watched helplessly the slain family.
But now it was different.
It is a memory of the day when I was about seven years old, drawing a map on a blanket overnight.
Her self pretending to be calm and her mother holding back her laughter while washing the duvet.
The father, who cared very much for her daughter, was eating breakfast without saying anything.
Her brother who overslept teased her belatedly, so we had a big fight.
It was a dream of a family that they couldn’t help but miss.
It was also an embarrassing memory.
If you’re going to show a good memory, why would you show a scene where you pee while sleeping?
After all, I can’t be friends with a guy called a dream.
Kang Ji-ah, muttering inwardly, sensed something strange.
It smelled like shit.
The smell was too vivid to be a dream.
Wait for a sec. I was drinking with him, who is obviously a princess…
Why are you dreaming?
“Whoa!”
“It’s a surprise.”
As she screamed and jumped up, a startled voice came from beside her.
But that wasn’t what mattered now.
She wore plain clothes to give her princess the impression of being comfortable.
I could feel that the dolphin pants as well as my underwear were wet.
The source of the ammonia smell while sleeping was clear.
If that’s the case, you can’t be drunk and pee stretched out…
‘No, no, no. That is nonsense. Why am I, why am I, what the hell is this…!’
Kang Ji-ah screamed in her heart as she covered her face with her hands.
Then she heard a soft voice.
“Jia-san, are you okay now?”
She was a princess
She was lying on his bed.
Even the blankets smelled like urine.
He must have struggled to get rid of the smell.
I felt sorry for her moment, but she made up her mind.
He is the enemy of her family. Almost certainly.
She didn’t have to be sorry that she soiled his bed.
…Maybe.
She wanted to answer the princess’ words, but Jiah Kang couldn’t take her hand off her face.
Her face is hot like burning.
Twenty-four-year-olds belong to the young axis in the unit, but they are not children either.
She eats her last night and commits an insult to someone else’s bed.
I don’t know how to look at him.
If possible, I would like to go into the rat hole with my face covered.
He never wanted to show such a face to the princess.
She doesn’t want to show any weakness.
Then the princess spoke in a low voice.
“Release your hands and show me your face. Right now.”
It was a forceful speech.
An arrogant tone, as if giving orders to subordinates.
A hot emotion welled up in Kang Ji-ah’s heart, but it faded surprisingly easily.
What came next was her sense of security and comfort.
“Yes I will.”
Kang Ji-ah removed her hand from her face and raised her head.
As she obeyed his command, she felt as good as a gentle breeze.
The inside of her chest tickled.
I couldn’t take my eyes off the princess’s face even though I was insanely ashamed.
He looks a bit cheeky, and his wild eyes are unusual, but he’s handsome.
Is it because they have black eyes and black hair in common?
Even though she was the enemy of her family, she couldn’t help but give high praise to the princess’s appearance.
Come to think of it, the name “Princess In” Sounds awkward.
I think it would be better for her to take off her last name and call her master.
‘That would be better.’
The name Master was strangely suited to him.
Why didn’t I call it that until now?
From now on I will call him master.
As Kang Ji-ah thought that in her mind, the master carefully examined her blushing face and smiled.
His voice, which had been forceful, softened again.
“You probably knew roughly what happened, but take this first.”
The owner held out a paper bag.
I peeked inside and saw women’s home-made underwear and well-folded shorts and activewear for men.
The active clothes faintly smelled of the owner.
“I just went out to buy them. Women’s activewear is out of stock. I change in the bathroom and come out.”
“Thank you, Mr. Master…”
Indeed, the desire to take off the soiled clothes and wash the lower body and tail was like a chimney.
I really appreciate the care of the owner.
Kang Ji-ah hurriedly picked up her paper bag and headed to the bathroom.
Fortunately, the top didn’t seem to get dirty.
She grabbed her dolphin pants and knickers at the same time and lowered them to keep her tail from getting caught.
“It stinks… I must be really crazy.”
Peeing in someone else’s room… Can there really be anything more embarrassing than this in one’s lifetime?
I used to think I was a heavy drinker, but I don’t want to think of such an arrogant thought again.
“Uh?”
But something felt off.
It’s nice to smell pee.
No, it’s not nice, but it’s natural anyway.
However, something strange, different from the smell of urine, seemed to come from the crotch.
I’ve obviously taken over. What does this smell like?
She couldn’t guess where she got it until she washed her crotch, legs, and tail with water and body wash to get all the smell out.
She wondered if maybe she drank so much that the smell was mixed with alcohol.
Kang Ji-ah carefully left the bathroom wearing the owner’s underwear and his shorts.
Then she went over to her master, who was sitting on a chair at the table, and bent over her.
“Really… I’m really sorry, no I’m sorry. I really couldn’t have done this. No, that’s not what I meant. I’m sorry. I’m completely distracted right now…”
Right now, she wanted to get down on her knees and beg the owner.
No, you can’t do that.
Does it make sense to do that to enemies?
When Ji-Ah Kang sighed and talked nonsense, the owner burst into laughter.
“Sir, don’t laugh!”
“Sorry, I’m sorry. … But beyond being humanly absurd, it’s kind of funny.”
“Are you laughing when you see people being so embarrassing?”
When Kang Ji-ah sighed, the owner had a harder time holding back her laughter.
The owner, who had been giggling for a while, said playfully.
“But I told you several times. Isn’t it overdoing it to drink a whole bottle of Hwaju alone? Even if I died, you wouldn’t listen.”
“…”
Ten mouths had nothing to say about that.
There is no doubt that the owner is a human with poison.
However, when asked if he was certain of the enemy who killed Kang Ji-ah’s family, he couldn’t answer 100%.
As she talked with him, she made up her mind.
He decided to kill the master only after he was convinced that he must be his enemy.
Her former self, who had identified him as her enemy and planned to kill her, was too impulsive.
After killing him, if the owner was innocent, wouldn’t he be able to turn back?
The humiliation she was going through now might be the cause and effect of what she was about to do.
So she drank all the wine.
He coldly refused the owner’s naive request to let him drink at least one drink, and drank all the poisoned liquor himself.
It was not difficult to decompose the poison as it was his own, but it was unavoidable to get drunk.
Then, at some point, the film cut off.
Still, I couldn’t believe I was drunk enough to excuse myself in my sleep.
“I’m really sorry about that. I must have been drunk. I have a habit of bluffing when I’m drunk…”
“It’s okay because it’s cute. By the way, if you’re really embarrassed, how about doing something like this? Do one of my favors and do something that never happened.”
“Please?”
The color of the boundary in Kang Ji-ah’s eyes was young.
She decides to delay the assassination until she can be sure, but the master is still a man with venom.
An unprecedented presence in history.
Even if there was a 1% chance that he wasn’t Jiah Kang’s enemy, the owner was still a 99% sure suspect.
At some point, the moment willingness turned to certainty, he had to be killed.
The hatred and resentment that simmered in his heart never faded.
He could not, even in empty words, promise to grant him any favors.
What are you trying to say…?
Not knowing whether she knew what she was thinking, the owner joked.
“Let’s have dinner together from now on.”
“Is it dinner?”
Kang Ji-ah, who was weak, spoke in a dejected voice, and the owner nodded her head.
“Yes. Oh, you can’t bring shippers.”
“…I won’t drink with the owner for the rest of my life, so don’t worry about that.”
“So. Are you going to have dinner together or not?”
“I’m going to eat. I’m going to eat. But what kind of nonsense? Let’s go out now, right?”
Whenever she spoke with the owner, it felt like she was always being dragged around.
He always seemed laid-back, which was attractive.
“I’m two years older than you. Can I talk to you? Jia, you speak comfortably. Oh, of course, I’ll sing comfortably only in private settings. I’m not someone who doesn’t have a case.”
“Even though I’m already calling it comfortably, what… I’m comfortable with honorifics, so I’ll sing it like now. I’m still uncomfortable with the owner.”
It was a lie.
Apart from a sense of resentment that he might be her enemy, she did not feel strangely distant from her master.
It’s like a close relationship.
I also felt that she was someone I could rely on.
When I said that I would come halfway, he smiled as if the owner knew everything.
“You can call me Master.”
Master? Master…?
For some reason, it feels good to call it that.
Kang Ji-ah, who swallowed her saliva, was startled.
What was I thinking?
“The owner keeps doing that, so it makes me uncomfortable! He’s just making fun of people and saying that now…”
“Really? Then we should get closer. Come on.”
Saying that, the master reached out and stroked Kang Jia’s chin.
Like praising a dog.
Is it because I’m not funny?
I should have cut her hand off, but I didn’t.
Tickling his chin with his fingers… I’m not a dog!
She thought, but when she felt the owner’s hand, goose bumps ran down her spine.
That’s how she felt.
Ten seconds later, Kang Ji-ah, who was shaking her body, snapped her master’s finger in surprise.
“This, this, this, what are you doing now!”
Hey?
It was so embarrassing that he chewed his tongue.
I was going to get angry, but I’m not going to live…
The owner was smirking and smiling as if he was satisfied.
Kang Ji-ah sprinted out of the owner’s tent, carrying her clothes and a paper bag containing crumpled shipping bottles.
It was late at night, and a chilly wind blew.
As soon as she left her master’s tent, a sense of disappointment overtook her, not knowing her reason.
She feels like she’s been taken away from where she belongs.
She was in a bad mood.
I can’t do that because I enjoyed my time with him.
It’s just the feeling of being in a warm tent and suddenly being hit by a cold night breeze.
She made up her mind like that.
Jia Kang walked towards her own tent.
As she moves away from her master’s tent, she gradually calms down.
Being alone feels like her mind is clearing.
Come to think of it, her heart is too certain to leave her owner alone.
She is also a bond that she may meet again if her mission is really over in a week.
It’s premature to assassinate him right now, but I think it would be appropriate to first feed Ji Hyo-seong with poison and prepare to activate the poison’s effect later.
Alright, let’s do that tomorrow.
Come to think of it, she decided to have dinner together in the future.
It might be a surprisingly good way.
In order to know the true nature of her master, getting close to him is the most efficient way.
There is no other mind at all.
In order to find out the identity of her master, it is really reluctant, but let’s get acquainted with him from now on.
Once she made up her mind, her steps became lighter.
Jia Kang walked out of her night street singing her hum.
But she soon stopped in her tracks.
It reminded me of a dream I had in her master’s room.
Thanks to her, I ended up recalling embarrassing memories from her childhood.
It might have been because of that dream that she even excused herself from her reality.
When she was little she peed in her dreams like she actually wet the quilt.
Her mother’s wry smile, her brother’s angry expression, even thinking about it made her blush with shame.
But…
Still, she didn’t want to wake up.
@
Oh, I’m dying of laughter
The look on her face when she noticed that he had peed on her!
Ji-ah Kang didn’t even dream that she had been manipulated.
As a test of her, I spoke in her commanding tone, and she obeyed me as if it were her own will.
It feels like a half-mix of human Kang Jia and her doggie.
Under hypnosis, she was so engrossed in her suggestion that she acted like a puppy, but now, Kang Jia is the type in which she naturally accepted my suggestion.
Although she said that she would isolate dogs and humans in Kang Jia’s inner world, strictly speaking, it was just a metaphor.
Jiah Kang is a human being.
She can’t have a beast inside her.
Human being is Kang Ji-ah’s rationality, and dog is her instinct.
Dogs obey the pleasure of accepting my suggestion, and humans feel repulsive.
The device to alleviate it was the fence.
Dogs only come out when they are alone with me.
Besides that, she can be relatively free from the influence of suggestion.
Of course, that’s a temporary solution.
As long as Jiah Kang remembers her pleasure tonight, her fence will not be able to protect her forever.
The closer Jiah Kang gets to me, the more she is alone with me, the stronger she will be under the influence of suggestion.
Every time that happens, Kang Ji-ah, who is outside the fence, gradually becomes one with the doggie.
You’ll feel pleasure just by obeying my orders or hearing my voice.
If you smell my body, you’ll be unbearably horny.
He’s still in my pants, so he must be pretty excited.
Anyway, the day will come when Kang Ji-ah herself will break down the fence.
Whether you give in to pleasure or find another way to rationalize yourself.
That day will be the last stage of teaching assistant Kang Ji-ah.
I cleaned up the drinking party, washed the blanket and mattress, and smiled.
