Chapter 256 – Gratitude
#256.
The next morning, everyone gathered in the living room for a drink and breakfast.
Chorin poured out a glass of Haejangguk, and Simyoung raised her thumb.
“Big… ! My stomach is full. He is also very good at cooking.”
“Pu-huh! Exaggerated too… Thanks for the compliment though.
Cho-rin laughed a little as if it was funny at Sim-young’s fuss that she didn’t even drink. Everyone laughed along and lifted the spoon.
For a while, the living room was filled with only the rattling of dishes.
‘I should never do it again next time.’
Gaon shook her head as he drank the soup. It’s because I feel all over again how crazy the thing I committed a few hours ago is.
When she raised her head slightly, she met Jaehee’s eyes, who were staring straight at him.
Her face turned slightly red. Her eyes trembled slightly as she thought about what she was thinking, and then she lowered her head and turned away from her gaze.
At dawn, Jae-hee reached her climax and at the same time, she ended up incontinence. The sight of the floor in her hallway turning white and yellow flashes through her mind.
Feeling the blood rushing downward in her temple, Gaon hurriedly turned her eyes and looked to the side of her.
And this time she was able to face Isabella, who was sharply alert to him for what was going on.
When her eyes met, she flinched at her body and, pretending not to know, lowered her head and opened her soup. Even so, she glanced and explored the part of her lower body that was hidden from view by the table.
Gaon wondered if she had a slight erection, so she was nervous, but no matter how much she did, she wouldn’t have the clairvoyance ability, so she was relieved and she finished eating.
After the meal was over in such an incomprehensible and suffocating atmosphere, Gaon and his party came down to the first floor to see off the others.
The first to open fire was Rugiana with her fiery action. She came over and grabbed Gaon by the collar, then pulled him straight into her mouth and fell.
“… Then I’ll go. See you later.”
“Yes. I will visit you soon.”
“Okay. Sometimes it would be nice if you could come and visit me besides work.
“I will.”
“Huh. I’ll be waiting for you.”
As the story with the Republic of Elbrancia ended well this time, there were more things to deal with, so she turned around and left the guild without any regrets.
Next it was the turn of the couple Shim-young and Rubia, and the siblings Raul and Hazel.
“Guild leader. Then see you next time.”
“Yes. I’m sorry, but please cheer up there a little more.”
“Of course. These guys are getting stronger fast, so you should be able to join them soon. Haha!”
Simyeong stroked Raoul’s head and laughed out loud. She reaches for Hazel as well, but she dodges with a nimble movement.
In fact, bringing the two to the capital is easy. Because it can be done anytime. But that’s why I wanted to leave it as it is before reaching a certain level.
Raoul is a spirit and Hazel is an archer. Gaon had never touched either of them, and of course, it was difficult to teach him anything.
Compared to that, there are Milena and Cain in the Barrymore estate, so it can be said that it is a very optimal environment for the two to be strong.
Right now, the situation is not urgent enough to borrow the power of this brother and sister, so maintaining the status quo is the answer.
“Call me if anything happens. I will run right away.”
“Of course. Then let’s go.”
“See you later. Brother!”
“… I will get stronger soon.”
“Okay. Don’t look forward to it.”
Gaon gently stroked the two of them’s heads in response. I don’t know what the difference is, but Hazel, who had been avoiding Shim-young, quietly accepted the touch.
Next was Priscilla. While playing around with Silion, she grinned at Gaon.
“I will go too. I guess Silion wants to go home soon.”
“Is it so? Guy… Even though it’s been a long time since I’ve been out, the house looks very nice. I will visit you soon.”
“Yes. See you next time.”
With those words, even Priscilla left.
When that happened, only Isabella and Jaehee were left as outsiders.
Among them, Jaehee was talking to Chorin.
“Miss Jaehee. I’ll call you if you ever need advice on magic. Got it?”
“Yes. Call me whenever you want.”
“Really? I promise you. I’ll ask you all night long. Should I even think about going to sleep?”
“… All right.”
Glancing at Gaon in the gap of hesitation is probably reminiscent of what happened at dawn.
Gaon couldn’t grasp the need to intervene here, so he headed straight for Isabella.
“Isabella.”
“… It was pretty fun. It was a bit annoying because I had to cook myself.”
“I’m glad you’re having fun. Thank you for the food. It was delicious.”
“Okay? I just need to know Then I’ll go.”
Something is a little strange Gaon felt that way. It was because her attitude, which had been relatively moderate until yesterday’s party, had completely changed since the morning.
She seems to be controlling herself, but as the person in charge of her, the underlying vigilance was visible.
Gaon hesitated, but eventually caught Isabella trying to leave her guild.
“Wait a minute. I have something to tell you.”
“… Talk? To me? What?”
Isabella hurriedly moved away from her hand, pulling her back slightly.
She seemed to have nothing to say, and if she said anything nonsensical, she gave her bloody eyes as if she would retaliate immediately.
Gaon said carefully.
“Are you thinking of staying together in the guild?”
“… What?”
“I wonder if there is a need to live far away. Wouldn’t it be more fun if we were together with everyone?”
Gaon thought of her having fun in her own way drinking her alcohol at her party, but her Isabella inevitably had to connect it with her memories of her last night.
‘Together with everyone, have fun… ?’
Chorin, Hayeon, Priscilla, Jaehee, Ruggiena, etc. Came to mind when I heard the word together.
At the same time, in Joyous, all of them banded together and howled like bitches while gasping for one of Gaon’s objects, continuing like a film.
And in between, she herself gets caught.
Isabella asked, unable to control her emotions and contorting her face.
“Now, what does that mean?”
“Yes? Literally. Sometimes, like today, I thought it would be nice to have fun while drinking together.”
“… Is that the end? What next?”
“What next? What if… ?”
Gaon tilted her head to the point of being naive and blinked her eyes. Her realistic look made her Isabella wonder if she was mistaken.
She asked speciously.
“Drinking is good, but I want the next one. How are you?”
“If it’s next…”
Gaon, who was puzzled, carefully blurted out his words, as if he soon caught on. Isabella has bitten her prey. She wants to.
“That’s right. That’s it. How is it? Just me and you.”
A look you don’t usually find. Gaon scratched the back of her head as if in trouble at the question with subtle temptation.
“That’s a bit…”
“I hate it when it’s not the two of you. So, are you going to do it?”
The moment he said he would do it, Gaon’s proposal turned into an ugly thing to satisfy his desire.
The long awaited answer finally came out.
“… Then I can’t help it. The two of us go to the second car. Can I have a balcony?”
“I knew that too! That’s what you were thinking! I have a second car with you… ! Uh? What?”
As soon as Isabella’s brain interpreted what she said behind her back, she reflexively asked back.
She looks at Ga-on strangely and says.
“Wasn’t it the first round with everyone and then the two of us going to the second round? That’s how I got it.”
“Secondary? So, what’s the first and second thing to do at a dinner party?”
“Yes. So what was it? What is Isabella thinking?”
Her right of attack passed to her opponent. Isabella was taken aback by her counterattack, which she didn’t expect, and she awkwardly turned around.
“Uh? Oh, I, that’s what I said too. Secondary. Yes, let’s go for the second round.”
“Is it so? I don’t think it was…”
Gaon looked at him suspiciously. Isabella tried her best not to uncover the misunderstanding she had been doing.
“Isn’t it? To be honest, yesterday was a bit bad. It stretched out so fast. I didn’t drink any. You drink to get drunk. Is not it?”
“It is. Still, isn’t it a bit like the two of you? With one more person…”
“No! Just two. Once it ends here. Talk to you later I’ll go.”
“What!? Isabella?”
Fearing that if she dragged on the conversation longer, Isabella’s absurdity would be discovered, so she cut off the conversation and quickly stormed out.
“What the hell… ?”
Gaon, who was left alone, was chasing after the traces, and this time, Jaehee approached.
“Oh, Jaehee. Are you two finished talking?”
“Yes. Roughly. This party… I enjoyed.”
Her words probably did not refer purely to the party. It must have been the answer to the madness that followed.
Gaon glanced at Chorin, who grinned behind her, and then she said.
“I’m glad you enjoyed it. Bye.”
“Yes. Call me next time Enough then.”
She won’t know Why did she wake up with the feeling of urination in the middle of her sleep. As to why her door was slightly open, and who had cleaned up the pee she had left in her hallway.
Looking at her Chorin, Gaon trembled slightly in fear. Because she didn’t know what she wanted.
***
One morning in January.
Gaon was sitting leisurely on the sofa, enjoying the time she hadn’t had in a long time.
Snacks and drinks spread out on the table and comic books in his hand prove him.
“Can I stay like this?”
A week after the start of the new year. In other words, a week has passed since the New Year’s party. In the meantime, except for the occasional swinging of the spear so that the body would not stiffen, Gaon had been resting like now.
After spending several days with Priscilla and Silion in the Barrymore estate, it was just yesterday that they returned, so they have nowhere to go.
Concentration was also broken by the warm sunlight beating down unsuitably for the season of winter.
I couldn’t see the manga, so I threw it on the table and stared blankly at the ceiling.
I immediately took out the communicator.
“Hello?”
-Ah, the guild leader! A guest has arrived.
The main character of this businesslike tone was none other than Yurie, the counter clerk.
At the Savior Guild, there was no particular request, so there were almost no visitors, so the counter was left empty so far, but I hired it as a lesson from the last party.
Gaon twitched his eyebrows at the unfamiliar word.
“A guest?”
-Yes. This is Aris Kielune. He said he would know if I said his name.
Aris Kielune.
It was a name I hadn’t heard in a very long time. The last time I saw him was before I went to the Barrymore estate, so it’s been over two years.
I was a little curious about how the girl who chirped with a clear voice like a canary had grown over the past two years.
Gaon opened her mouth.
“You know someone. Please take me to the reception room right away.”
-Yes. All right.
At the end of that conversation, contact ended.
Gaon quickly went down after completing his transformation at the speed of light.
‘What’s going on…’
Since she had no contact with her in the meantime, she couldn’t have come for no reason, so she must have something of her own.
Besides, she hadn’t contacted her in two years, and if she could reach out to him, she wouldn’t be in a hurry.
Normally, it would be best not to get involved in such troublesome matters as much as possible, but…
‘It can’t be helped.’
I received considerable help from Viscount Kielun. Thanks to her, when she first came to Union, she was able to quickly build up her boudoir, so she needs to repay the favor.
More than anything she said before we broke up she promised to help someday, so she deserved it.
As Gaon expressed her curiosity about what was going on, she hurried to the reception room on the second floor.
