036. I’ll do it if you want
I was aware that I was saying something that wasn’t in my heart with a little bravado. However, Endymion did not know that it would have such a big result.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place.
It was from the moment he met Selene’s wet eyes that he knew something was wrong.
“You brought it on yourself…”
She said that if a woman harbors resentment, she will have frost in the month of May. Selene was also a woman.
Even though she is so strong that she can’t imagine how strong she is on her own, and that she has long since given up her bonds as a human being.
Only my heart stopped a long time ago, I still know that I will get hurt… No, rather, it seemed that the heart was more vulnerable to being hurt because it stayed too young.
“What do you mean…”
Endymion asked because Selene’s words were uneasy.
So the nervousness is getting more and more, and Endymion’s eyebrows are slowly narrowed in a swaying atmosphere that seems like an incident is about to happen.
It was then.
“…A ring?”
There was something that bothered her eyes, so when she looked there, light was pouring from the ring Selene was wearing. If that were all, he would have been primarily wary, but Endymion knows that a ring like that one is worn on his hand.
‘No way… ‘
As expected…. Endymion’s expression hardened when he saw the ring shining on his hand as well.
“What the hell are you doing?”
Ask straight forward. As if he had no place to retreat anymore, Endymion looked at Selene while trying to lower her voice.
‘It feels strange.’
From the ringed finger, it seemed that a foreign energy was rising through his veins. It could have been an illusion caused by seeing a strange phenomenon, but it seemed more credible that something had really happened.
At his question, Selene, who had been keeping her eyes closed, slowly lifted her eyelids, as if she had been concentrating on her.
“Are you working?”
Her composure and coldness with resentment could be felt just with that simple question.
“If you say that, don’t you think I’ve done something bad to you?”
As if it wasn’t true even though I said it, Selene shook her head excitedly as she continued her words.
“I just had to do now what I should have done for you and for me a long time ago.”
“That thing you have to do… Does it have anything to do with the light emanating from the ring?”
At Endymion’s question, Selene slightly raises the corner of her mouth and smiles strangely. It was a meaningful answer, and one that was close to affirmative.
Thanks to this, Endymion, who had gained confidence, stared at Selene with a hardened expression.
“…What the hell did you do to me-“
“The words are rough.”
It wasn’t a big deal. It wasn’t that Endymion’s words weren’t harsh, it was that Selene’s flat tone was the same as usual.
But it had unexpected results. I was able to guess it with Endymion’s eyes shaking for an instant.
“Should I say it nicely?”
With Endymion suddenly speechless in front of her, Selene bent her eyes like crescent moons. It might look cute when she tilts her head slightly to the side, but why does it remind me of a scene from a horror movie?

Moreover, Selene goes a step further. She stretched out her hand and gently stroked Endymion’s face. Like billions, no… As if treating priceless valuables.
There are only two of them here, but if a third person sees it, it’s enough to know that it’s an obsession, or a very intense possessive desire… The emotions emanating from Selene’s actions were obvious.
“Why… ‘Didn’t you mean something?”
“…….”
“But you’ve become a mute after eating honey.”
Even at those words that seemed ridiculed at first glance, Endymion only looked at them with a sunken gaze. She made no reply.
In fact, the fact that he stopped talking just a moment ago wasn’t entirely his will.
‘The horse… It didn’t come out on the way.’
Like a pitiful fairy tale character whose voice has been taken away.
A sheep with a reef in the middle of its throat could not make a sound.
It was embarrassing for a while. But soon, Endymion seemed to know who was doing this.
“Like this… If you keep your mouth closed, you’ll find something so lovely…”
SomSom I wiped Endymion’s face with a hand as fine as corn. The touch made Endymion slightly frown at him, but he offered no particular resistance.
It would be more accurate to say that I couldn’t bear it….
Anyway, Endymion was just thinking to himself.
‘It must have been Selene’s work. In the ring… A strange effect was hiding.’
Once Selene handed over a very suspicious item, he was always on guard.
However, the problem was that Selene did what she was doing, overshadowing her vigilance.
‘Somehow it didn’t fall out.’

Maybe it was because of this function. It may not be because of an illusion that it feels like a dog leash.
“Why… why…”
Selene, who was carefully stroking him, suddenly began to tremble in her voice. Her touch was no longer the same as before. She pressed her palms against Endymion’s cheeks, and only the tips of her fingers wriggled.
“Such unspeakable sounds…”
“…….”
Endymion faced head on. Her momentum, shining viciously as if grabbing the cheek she held at any moment.
It was hard to even guess what the distorted emotions were in his eyes.
‘I may have said it wrong, but… ‘
Did you ever imagine that you could draw out this level of anger with that? Water already spilled. It was too late to pick her up.
Endymion regretted it belatedly, but as usual, nothing changed.
Rather, only the feel of the leash in her hand made her feel even cooler.
‘To put this to rest… What should I do?’
Judging from what had just happened to her, Endymion seemed to know one thing.
‘Bad words… That’s why I can’t say anything bad about Selene.’
There is no way to know the criteria in detail, but he expected his guess to be roughly correct. That’s right, isn’t there something Selene said just now?
-You should say it nicely.
… The way he speaks as if he were a dog. However, Endymion did not have enough of her strength left to stand up with this gun.
I’m in the position of a herbivore in front of a beast right now, but even an earthworm wriggles when I step on it- I think that’s because it’s before the earthworm really faces fear.
Selene was a true beast and feared. Even more so in the current situation where he is grabbing Endymion’s leash right now.
“What do you want from me?”
Because he knew very well that it would be a loss to drag on for a long time, Endymion asked straight forward. On the other hand, I wondered what the answer would come out of Selene’s mouth.
“Well… Wouldn’t it be better if the answer was that I wanted you?”
A smirk, but behind that was a mask that looked like an ice field. It wasn’t that Selene was lying.
Rather… It was so sincere that it only took a moment for her calm emotions to become somewhat intense.
“Why can’t I like you… Why are you avoiding me so much!”
Indignant cries resound in all directions. Selene grinned like that for a long time. Seeing that, Endymion couldn’t bear to say anything.
All he could do was panic. A torrent of emotions passes by my ears. It was a short time, but the afterglow lasted quite a long time.
“…Then, can I just love you?”
“What do you mean?”
Selene puts effort into capturing her still lingering feelings and then calmly asks. Then Endymion spoke more clearly.
“I asked if I told you I loved you… Would you be satisfied?”
“…….”
Selene then looked straight into Endymion’s eyes. No… After all, she had been looking him in the eye the whole time. But even if she sees the same thing, her feelings will change depending on the time.
“For me to say that…”
Selene asks. She seemed to have to ask and move on. But Endymion pretended not to hear her and intercepted her words, not wanting to give her a chance.
“I love you.”
That’s also a rather shocking statement.
“Uh…”
It was only natural for Selene to panic when this happened. She didn’t know what to say and just stared blankly at Endymion.
That sounds really nice. That was the unmistakable truth. But Selene never laughed.
“Are those words… sincere?”
“…….”
Silent Endymion. Because of this, her distrust of Selene only grew.
Selene looked suspicious. No, to the extent that she sent her glance, which she was sure was not.
He must have, he suddenly said something like that, but how much sincerity was added? … She saw that Selene was not her. But even so, she couldn’t give up her lingering hope.
How nice it would be if those words were true… Doing, such lingering and hopeful.
In response, Endymion responded calmly.
“I’m serious.”
I love you-
– Those were the words he spat out with a smile like a mask.
