201 – Moonlight Night (1)
“Umm…”
Less than 10 minutes had passed since Grace was held by me and closed her eyes. She fell completely asleep.
His breathing became stable and his heartbeat significantly decreased. It means falling into a deep sleep.
You might say it’s strange to fall into a deep sleep in just 10 minutes, but it’s possible if you’re completely relaxed.
This means that Grace was also very nervous. It’s probably my first time sleeping in the same bed with a man, so it’s worth it.
‘Maybe it’s because I patted my back, so I’m sleeping well.’
When Grace was clinging to me, she was a little embarrassed.
She was so close, as if she wouldn’t let go even a little bit. Thanks to this, my mind became dizzy for a moment.
It smelled good not long after washing, and it clung to her like a child, making her feel a strange feeling.
The problem is that the body is not a child at all. It was quite embarrassing as it kept clinging to me.
‘Grace has a nice body too.’
I put away useless thoughts and quietly slipped away.
I can’t continue to lie in bed, and Grace is completely asleep.
“Ugh…”
Isn’t it? As I tried to pull away, Grace pulled her arm tighter.
She tried to carefully shake off his touch and move on, but it was no use. By the time she was completely free, she was flailing her arms around.
I felt so sorry for the arms that were splitting into the air, so I had no choice but to turn back. I ended up using his pillow to get over it.
“Hmmnya… hehehe.”
Grace laughed, mistaking the pillow for me. It seems like I’m having a good dream.
She is the one who always makes a noble yet confident expression. It was my first time seeing something like that.
Her smile also felt pure as she had a little fairy tale in her heart.

‘Such a good person…’
If I hadn’t helped, Grace would have left forever.
Revival itself would have been impossible, both personally and socially. Because it was like that in Soul World as well.
Maybe that’s why I was disappointed that I couldn’t visit Delphi more. It made it impossible for him to be a man for the rest of his life, but it wasn’t enough.
It should have been made impossible for him to live as a human being, let alone act as a man. Should I have pulled out my tongue like that idiot?
‘Well, there’s no one that bothers me now.’
I patted the head of Grace, who smiled innocently, and then walked away.
A body that doesn’t need sleep anyway. I’m thinking of going out to the balcony and getting some fresh air.
Even though it is a mansion, since it is an academy facility, the balcony is quite spacious. That was when I entered the balcony.
“Hmm? You.”
“?”
A familiar voice was heard from next to me. I turned my head and looked at him.
Dan Ye-rin was standing on the balcony right next to him. She was holding a stick in one hand, and her unique bun hair was all down.
There was darkness all around her, but a lamp was lit on her balcony. So everyone could see her face.
“Are you here because you’re bored? Or for any other reason?”
“To get some air.”
“To get some air? Hmm.”
After hearing my answer, Yerin put her stick in her mouth. Come to think of it, she was a smoker.
I looked at her closely while she was lost in her thoughts. Overall, it is a nightgown that looks like a robe.
An oriental-style clothing with a neat combination of black and red colors. The curves of the body that cannot be hidden even with that are impressive.
“Aren’t you sleeping?”
I asked Dan Ye-rin, who was smoking a gombangdae. However, Yerin shrugged her shoulders and spoke politely.
“I’m the type of person who has a hard time sleeping at night. I feel anxious when I lie down in bed.”
“Are you anxious?”
“Yes. Because you never know when and where danger will come. You grew up in the forest, so you probably know that feeling, right?”
I know. In the past, I almost died of anxiety every time I went to sleep.
Fortunately, thanks to the wild instincts, the consciousness itself was awake and able to respond immediately at any time.
If I hadn’t even had that, I wouldn’t have died in the middle. In fact, he overcame many dangers of death thanks to his wild instincts.
“I know what it feels like.”
“If you know, you can sympathize. Phew.”
Dan Ye-rin sucked in deeply and exhaled her smoke. Her haze rose from every corner of her body.
Pipe tobacco like Gombangdae can be smoked for a long time, unlike regular cigarettes. I usually bloom for mental stability.
“So, how is it?”
“What?”
“You mean staying with someone of the opposite sex. How does it feel?”
“Umm…”
I looked back after hearing that question. Grace was burying her face in his pillow and shivering.
If I were there, I would have been in trouble in many ways. I think it was a good thing I got out quickly.
“Okay.”
“In what sense?”
“I’m not lonely.”
But apart from that, Grace’s presence was quite helpful.
After I got sick with a disease that wasn’t a disease the other day, I realized how lonely it is to be alone.
When I lived in the forest, I was used to being alone. However, as time passed and I met people, I became aware of my loneliness.
Grace needs me too, but I also get stability from her. This is an undeniable fact.
“I’m not lonely… That’s quite a big resonance.”
“You stay together too.”
“You mean Yeohye? hahahaha.”
When I mentioned her Yeo-hye, Dan Ye-rin let out a dry laugh. As if she didn’t deserve it.
Then she glanced behind her and smiled vaguely. It is a smile that conveys sadness.
“Can I ask you a question?”
“Yes.”
“How much do you trust people?”
This is quite a meaningful question. It is also a word that implicitly expresses the environment Dan Ye-rin experienced.
It means how much you trust people. Saying something like that means you’ve been bullied by quite a few people.
I can distinguish between people I should trust and people I should not trust, but not others.
In particular, Dan Ye-rin had political ambitions, so she must have experienced all the stress.
“Only those who believe.”
“Only those who believe?”
“Yes. I only believe in those who believe.”
“What if that person cheats on you?”
“What are you fooling?”
“··· ···”
Dan Ye-rin blinked at my simple yet simple answer. It’s a really stupid face.
Afterwards, she let out a faint laugh, as if it was absurd. The reaction is quite interesting.
“That’s an interesting answer. What’s the reason?”
“It’s annoying.”
“It’s annoying?”
“Yes.”
I get tired the moment I have to worry about this and that in my relationships. Otherwise she wouldn’t have even become close to Kara.
When she first met Kara, she was despised as a barbarian. I knew that too.
But I didn’t care and became friends with her. Thanks to that, I received similar looks, but it didn’t matter.
Basically, Kara is good. Also, he is definitely not the type to betray someone. If I made a mistake, I would have made a mistake here.
“Is it because I don’t have any connections? It’s a convenient thought.”
Dan Ye-rin said this and made a big fuss. And she said in a jealous voice.
“That’s why I envy you even more. Since you have nothing, you can trust anyone.”
“That’s not it.”
“That’s not it?”
“I don’t trust people I can’t trust.”
I absolutely do not trust just anyone. Just trust those who you can trust.
It’s not that there are no students in my class who approach me. Sometimes we ask to go out to play.
Of course, I refused every time. Because I intuitively knew that they had a plan.
“How do you know that? It won’t be easy.”
“Instinct?”
“It’s instinct… I’ll just ask one more question.”
Tuk-
Dan Ye-rin said while shaking off her gombangdae. Then she glanced back and spoke in a more cautious voice than before.
“What do you think of my bodyguards?”
“Guardian guard?”
“I’m talking about Yeo-hye. Is she a trustworthy person?”
She answered that question like a knife.
“No.”
Then Dan Ye-rin’s expression visibly hardened.
You are probably thinking about this right now. She wonders if Yeo-hye, whom she named Yeo-hye, is a trustworthy person.
But she is by no means a trustworthy person. If the story goes as planned, Yeo-hye will one day threaten Dan Ye-rin’s life.
Even the timing will be quite fast. To put it simply, she is a spy planted by higher-ups.
“······ It hasn’t even been a week since I came to the academy. But she says Yeo-hye is not a trustworthy person?”
“Yes.”
“On what basis?”
“Nothing.”
There is no basis. I just know the future.
That is why I can say it openly. Whether you believe it or not, Dan Ye-rin is free.
Although it is indeed an ironic situation, Dan Ye-rin must have quite complicated feelings.
She came to the academy to rest, but she couldn’t get comfortable. Still, it would be difficult to give up her ambition.
“You say such things when there is no basis… It’s contradictory. But it bothers me. Looking at the people around you.”
“··· ···”
“I think we can use this opportunity to find out about your instincts. Can you really trust those instincts?”
Dan Yerin smiled her bitter smile. She certainly has more than one thing to worry about.
You must diligently learn information about the Hwan Empire and withstand the threat of assassination. It is an environment where it is difficult to sleep comfortably.
“Then finally… Sivar.”
“Yes.”
“Do you think I am a trustworthy person?”
“Yes.”
Dan Ye-rin is a trustworthy person. She is similar to Kara, although due to her environment she is fundamentally distrustful.
People themselves are basically good and have a personality that never betrays. However, depending on the story, the inclination may change to evil.
‘If I gain trust and betray it first.’
If this happens, Dan Yerin will be transformed into a typical tyrant. This especially stands out when she becomes emperor.
Not only did she purge all of her own brothers and sisters, but she also destroyed all of her subjects.
It goes without saying for the player. She hates her so much that she pours out all the hate in the world.
No. She goes beyond hating, she finds it disgusting.
“What on earth makes you say that? It’s been so long since you’ve seen me.”
“Alcohol.”
“Hmm?”
“We drank together.”
Dan Ye-rin made a puzzled expression again at my answer. She looked completely unexpected.
Of course, this won’t be enough. I also didn’t remember anything in particular, so it was almost like I just skipped it.
But I guess it’s okay since we shared drinks with each other. In addition, I also heard Dan Ye-rin’s cool swearing.
“······hahahaha.”
Dan Ye-rin, who had been making a dumb expression for a while, burst into laughter.
“hahahaha!”
That’s also a very refreshing laugh. She laughed so excitedly that she even dropped her head.
Dan Ye-rin, who had been laughing for a while, raised her head and faced me. Her face is full of joy.
She must have smiled really brightly, as she even wiped away tears from the corners of her eyes.
“hehehehe. It’s fun. It’s really fun. I can’t figure out how it all goes against what I expected.”
“I hear that a lot.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve had this much fun. I think I know why she’s falling for you.”
Well. I think Rod needs to wear stomach medication because I had an accident.
Actually, Rod told me this before. The symptoms of poisoning improved, but my stomach started to hurt.
Even Dan Uiwon, a spy for the devil, said that he was enough to provide normal herbs.
“I can sleep well today. Oh, do you remember what I said before?”
“What?”
“I’m talking about a promise to have a drink. I need alcohol to be able to sleep. I’m having a hard time today, so can we start tomorrow?”
“When Grace sleeps.”
It would be difficult to drink alcohol while Grace is awake. I had that feeling.
When Dan Ye-rin heard my answer, she smiled delicately and said something whose meaning I did not know.
“Leaving a woman and drinking with another woman… Seems like cheating. Oh, do you know what cheating means?”
“I know.”
“Really? Just in case you don’t know, this is definitely not cheating. Just think of it as friendship. Do you understand?”
If that’s the case. I nodded, not as a request but as a request.
Yerin also looked satisfied and turned off the light in the gombangdae. Looks like I’m about to go to sleep now.
“It was a pleasant conversation after a long time. I had a good laugh for the first time in a long time. I feel like my heavy heart has become lighter in many ways.”
“Are you going to sleep?”
“Okay. It’s late at night, so you should sleep. You should hurry up and go in, too.”
“Um…”
I looked ahead after hearing those words. To be exact, underneath the dark mansion.
It was dark and I couldn’t see anything, but there was something that caught my breath.
“Go in first.”
“What about you?”
“I’ll stay here and then go.”
“Okay. Have a good night.”
Dan Ye-rin went inside to say hello to her. I looked underneath her to make sure she was inside her.
As Dan Ye-rin entered, the presence that had been quietly waiting beneath her began to return. I think I almost know who it is.
‘Let’s wait for now.’
I’m just here to check, so there’s no need to go there first.
‘Ah. Come to think of it, isn’t smoking prohibited here?’
I don’t know. I’ll ask tomorrow.
