Chapter 127 – A Month Has Passed
After vacation,
It was a little over a month since the new semester started.
The sunlight pouring from the blue sky feels cozy.
Because the sweltering heat has subsided a bit.
I was going to school with Ian right now.
“Ian, Ian, what time does it finish today?”
“Well. “About five o’clock?”
“Are you coming home right away?”
“Yes.”
“He. You have to come quickly… ?”
I grinned and hugged Ian closer.
… After the last fake incident, our relationship changed once again.
No, should we say that the relationship has changed?
I don’t know, but one thing is for sure: my heart is not the same.
I ended up liking it even more.
I like Ian.
To the point where every moment he is not by my side becomes painful.
There were times when I thought I was too dependent on him and decided I needed to stay away from him.
But now I’m like, well, I don’t know.
I like you more, and I just want to be closer to you.
“Eve. Hmm.”
“Why?”
“… It’s too close.”
Now it’s surprising.
I thought so, but I didn’t bother to reveal that thought.
Instead, he walked closer with a “I don’t know anything” Face and said, “Yes.” Ian’s arm was so close to me that it was buried between my cleavage, so I could only look up at Ian with a somewhat fair smile.
Before we knew it, we were beyond the main gate of the academy,
There were quite a few people around…
People’s gaze was no longer something I cared about.
No, it might be seen as the opposite.
I actually wish you would look at it more.
It’s my own plan to show off that it’s already mine, and that it’s mine, so that there won’t even be a chance for another woman to get involved.
Even so, it is very burdensome to have people staring at you,
I was so embarrassed to be openly skinning Ian in the middle of all those people, so my face always turned bright red…
Ugh, that was something I had to endure.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to calm down from your anxiety.
But there is no way that time stuck together like this will last forever,
The time has come to separate to listen to each other’s lectures.
Ian, who noticed that I was in tears, smiled sweetly and said.
“You can hear well without me, right?”
“… Oh, please don’t treat me like a child…”
“If you look at what he’s doing, he’s completely crazy. “What?”
“…”
I don’t answer,
I just closed my eyes and slightly stuck out my lips.
“Please kiss me,” He begged.
But Ian doesn’t listen to what I want.
I’m just sticking out my lips, I’m really looking forward to it,
All he did was say goodbye and give me a kiss on the cheek.
“Ugh…”
Even if I open my closed eyes and glare at him,
They just smile like they’re cute and don’t do anything more than kiss, right?
Hmph, I’m dying of disgust.
You can be so mean when you’re at home, but you can’t do anything to save face when you’re outside.
I tried to show off that I was disappointed and whine,
At the moment when I decided to say that…
“Oh…”
I suddenly feel nauseous.
Ugh, I bent my back as the feeling of nausea rose up.
Ian was so surprised, Eve? He looked at me, but I didn’t have time to answer.
It took a few minutes for me to calm down.
After taking several deep breaths while leaning on Ian’s arm,
It’s as if he’s been fine for some time, right?
“Are you okay?”
“To. Ugh, I think I’m feeling better now…”
“Aren’t you in pain somewhere? “I told you to tell me if you feel like there’s anything wrong with your body.”
“It’s not like that. Well, it really doesn’t hurt at all. But suddenly I felt nauseous.”
“… Really?”
What is it?
I am taking my medication consistently and on time, and since Ian is in charge of cooking, I am also taking good care of my nutrition.
Of course, there was no such thing as hiding the pain.
Really, what was it… ?
…
…
…
“Professor Carmen. What’s going on?”
After finishing all of today’s lectures, I was called by the professor and came to the alchemy department’s laboratory.
“There are several reasons why I called you.”
I see that your face is full of smiles,
I guess the work you were doing went well.
And if I were to say what the professor was doing these days, there was only one thing.
A reinterpretation of the Emerald Tablet.
After testing many times, it was determined that there was no problem in the end.
“Those guys from the academy, after all, they were making fun of something that was useless. “I can’t be wrong.”
“For something like that, it seems like you’ve had quite a hard time…”
“But it’s strange. The name of the academy member who had made a difference was clearly someone I had never seen before. However, the examples and structure of the paper regarding the possibility of errors in interpretation make some sense. To be honest, it was so sharp that even my heart sank. It’s almost impossible given the physiology of this place…”
“…”
“Well, that’s enough. The important thing is that my interpretation was not wrong.”
I felt it intuitively.
The fact that my father was involved in this.
And that they planned this to bring me from Ernest’s home to the academy.
How much do you know?
Did you expect that I helped interpret the Emerald Tablet, that it would be difficult for you alone to reinterpret it, and that you would call me to the academy?
I felt a little suffocated by that thoroughness.
“…”
I know. Maybe all of this is just a fuss on my part.
You may still be caught up in his shadow, thinking it’s your father’s fault for something that has nothing to do with you.
There are plenty of ways to meet me even if you don’t have to go through such difficult steps.
But if not…
“Look at my mind. Miss Eve. Thank you again this time. “If it weren’t for you, I probably would have had a hard time.”
“What I did was nothing special… “Not much to say.”
“Not really. So, are you interested in taking on a few of the projects I have in mind?”
“If you ask me to come in as a native student, I will refuse.”
“You’ve become very perceptive. It’s not like the first time. Eh. I should have grabbed it when I had no idea…”
Because you say the same thing every time we meet.
I didn’t necessarily say anything that was against etiquette.
There was something more important than that.
“Hey, professor. “Can I use the lab warehouse?”
A place I once visited came to mind again.
Alchemists’ treasure trove… It was a place that wouldn’t be unreasonable to say that.
“Huh? I know. “There’s nothing I can’t do for you.”
“Thank you.”
I didn’t think it would be so easy to allow it, but…
Perhaps because we helped with this reinterpretation as well as before, we were able to get approval quite easily.
“But what are you planning to make this time?”
“… Rain, it’s a secret.”
“Promise me you won’t do anything dangerous. Something like human compatibility…”
“I don’t. Something like that. “I’m not interested.”
“Then? No, it’s okay. Just always remember that I believe in you.”
It meant not to cause accidents.
But what you’re worried about won’t happen.
Yeah, I’m not going to do anything grand, I’m just trying to make a medicine.
I nodded, took the key to the warehouse, and headed there.
…
…
…
I don’t know how many hours I spent in the warehouse.
I’m on my way home now.
The sun that warmly enveloped me has long since set,
I was returning home in the middle of the night.
I put the medicine I made in my pocket.
I can’t wait to go home, but Ian will be back soon…
When I was making the stimulant, or rather the medicine, I thought about just going home several times, but I ended up making it.
Open the front door and go inside the house.
Inside, just like one day, there was Ian sitting in the living room, tapping his fingers on the table.
“He told me to come early. “What if Eve is late?”
“Oh, well, I have work to do…”
“I have to say I was wrong.”
“I wrote it wrong.”
“Again?”
“Also… ? Yes, Ian, I like it… ?”
He seems quite satisfied with what I said.
He nodded, um, and asked me why I was late.
Also, did you eat dinner?
“I didn’t eat it!”
“Go wash up. “I will prepare it.”
I nodded and went into the bathroom.
After taking a shower, I realized that the maid outfit was ridiculously shameless… After getting dressed and having dinner, we go into Ian’s room together.
You don’t know how happy I am to see a series of actions repeated over and over again for days and weeks.
It’s truly a peaceful daily life, and I hope this continues forever.
Lying in the same bed, hugging each other tightly, hehe, now that the atmosphere is a little more mature, it feels good like always, yes, sex… I will do it.
“Oh. That’s right.”
“?”
“Just wait a moment.”
After saying that, I stopped by my room for a moment.
I’m going to pick up the medicine I made earlier.
And then I think.
I had my own concerns.
From some point on, I couldn’t defeat him.
When we first overlapped, we were both clumsy, so I think there were days when I took the lead, but Ian has become incredibly good at making me go, and now he can never win.
Of course, sex isn’t about winning or losing, but since almost every day ends with me fainting, it kind of pisses me off… I was wondering if Ian might not be satisfied…
Until I’m satisfied, yes, even if I lose my mind, toys… Like, I said I could use it as much as I wanted, but Ian, who has a stubborn side, just smiled and asked how I could do that.
I half want to satisfy him,
Also, I have a half-hearted desire to win by squeezing out every inch…
I made it up. This medicine.
I smiled sinisterly like a mad scientist,
I drank all the stimulant in one mouthful.
Good. Dead. Ian.
Because tonight is going to be the night of victory… !
