69 – Long-distance travel (2)
A weekend trip to a hot spring that we suddenly decided to take.
It was truly reckless on my part, but no one complained about it.
That’s right, Louis, I just said that I like her as long as she stays with me.
Team leader Jang Se-hee, who became the exclusive maid 24/7, became a yes woman.
The black suits in the darkness, including Inspector Lee Tae-seok, think that as long as Ruina doesn’t cause an accident, she’s gone.
It was just past lunch time and it was already around 3 PM.
A luxury sedan driven by a maid stopped gently in the middle of a large outdoor parking lot.
“Off.”
After getting out of the car, I did a big stretch.
“Keuuu!”
Are you following me like that?
Ruina followed behind, squinting her eyes cutely and stretching her arms above her head.
“There are so many people here.”
Ruina immediately wrapped her arms around me, opened her eyes wide, and looked around her.
There were numerous cars parked in all directions she could see, and people were crowded under the large building beyond.
The place where we stopped for a while is a place that you can’t miss when traveling long distances.
It was a highway rest area.
Some people say that they feel a more fulfilling trip at a rest stop than at their travel destination.
The rest area on the weekend was crowded with many people.
“Will the team leader be in the car?”
I spoke through the darkly tinted window.
“I will stay here. If I go out, I’ll just get attention….”
“Ah… ….”
If you show off your maid uniform in front of a lot of people, you will immediately become a daily star on SNS.
I heard that a maid cosplay appeared in a rest area somewhere.
“Then what do you need? “A snack or something.”
“It’s okay. “Don’t worry about me, just enjoy it with Ruina.”
As expected, it was a yes woman-like answer.
I would never have thought that someone who was such a b*tch would become so obedient after being punished.
I couldn’t even imagine what words were exchanged inside the National Intelligence Service.
“Baby~ Let’s go~”
I guess he didn’t like the way me and the maid were talking.
Ruina whined, pulling my arm tightly.
“Okay, okay.”
“……… ….”
That brief moment when she turned her feet toward the rest area.
It was clearly visible that Ruina was casting a sharp gaze toward the driver’s seat where team leader Jang Se-hee was sitting.
I’m sure there are people who don’t want to be around us because of that gaze.
“It smells delicious.”
“Because when you go to a rest area, it’s a snack.”
In front of the rest area we arrived across the spacious parking lot.
I could already smell the rest area’s famous food here and there.
“Yuri. What do you want to eat?”
I asked her, putting the pseudonym of Ruina in her mouth, which is naturally used in public.
“Uhm… ….”
Ruina seems to be in deep trouble.
She bit her chin with her hand and tilted her head crookedly.
After about ten seconds.
Soon her small lips gently parted from hers.
“I…… Wealth? Lol….”
Ruina blushed, her cheeks turning peach-colored, as if she felt embarrassed after speaking.
“Everything? “Everything here?”
“But I haven’t had lunch yet…” ….”
That’s right.
I had scrambled eggs for breakfast, and I haven’t even had lunch yet due to my sudden travel announcement.
And Ruina eats every meal in a combative way.
She was always fighting her own hunger.
In that case, wouldn’t it be the job of the handler, her own hero, to listen to her demands?
“Then, shall we run quickly from walnut snacks to walnut squid?”
“Yes! After all, it’s our baby!”
Louis said she was happy with my declaration and a smile bloomed on her face.
We invaded right in front of the stall that smelled delicious.
After some time.
“Umhuhu♡”
Louisa was standing with her mouth full of food, her expression melting with happiness.
In the same way, between her fingers were the food she had purchased one by one while visiting all the stores in both hands.
Looking at that behavior, it would be normal to think of an invincible food fighter or Paohu, but Ruina’s body was actually the exact opposite of that image.
Even though she was wearing her coat due to the chilly weather of late fall, her exit was still protruding and her entrance was neatly tucked in.
The proportions were worthy of being called a model wearing a coat.
It’s just that the model-level beauty is holding rest area food with her hands full.
“Is it delicious?”
“Hung!!”
Ruina, who had conquered the food at her rest stop, answered while pursing her mouth repeatedly.
Seeing her cute appearance, I gently lifted my arm and wrapped it around her waist.
“Um um um um…” . hehehehe.”
Ruina quickly chewed and swallowed her food, then snuggled up to me and smiled.
“Try this, too. Is it sweet and delicious? Ah~”
“Aang.”
Soon, the butter-grilled potato that was sandwiched between Louisa’s fingers popped into her mouth.
Looking back, Ruina had fed me food many times.
In the past, I was so embarrassed that I ended up accepting it as a lie.
Now, I was completely used to this kind of sweet situation.
Is it because of that?
People passing by around us.
In particular, I immediately felt the malevolent gaze of the men who appeared to be single glaring at us.

“Is it delicious, honey?”
“Yes. “It tastes better because you fed it to me.”
“Kyaa!!♡”
And before I knew it, I had become someone who even enjoyed those gazes.
When we deliberately gave a sly answer, of course Louisa recalled her face and said she really liked it, and the men who were looking at us furrowed their brows.
“Shall we go back to the car soon?”
I lightly ignored their jealousy and envy.
I asked Ruina, who was aggressively tasting the food for a while.
“Oh. Then just a moment.”
Ruina stuffed all of her food into her mouth in one go, quickly chewed it up and swallowed it.
I watched it a few times and thought about it a few times, but I was just wondering how I could eat so much and not gain weight.
“Baby. “I’m going to go to the bathroom for a moment.”
“Okay. “Does it take long?”
“Oh, it doesn’t take long! Boo!”
Ruina’s face turned bright red and she quickly ran to the bathroom.
Oops. This is clearly my mistake.
Even though she was my girlfriend, I spoke too casually at that moment.
“I guess I’ll have to say I’m sorry when I come back…” ….”
I waited for Ruina absentmindedly, scratching the back of her head.
It was that time.
“Wow! Wow!”
“Can you give me an autograph!?”
“What brings you here!?”
The voices of people cheering in the middle of the outdoor parking lot reached here.
When I turned my head towards the sound to see why, I immediately understood the reason.
Even though it was quite far away from where I was standing, I couldn’t not see that large figure.
“Draconius… !”
Draconius, a dragon hero in the form of a bipedal dragon, appeared at this rest area.
His superior physique, which was 2.5 Meters tall, and his strong, dragon-like appearance were enough to attract everyone’s attention, but he was an ace hero who was superior not only in appearance but also in skills.
As for how strong he was, he was ranked 5th in the unofficial rankings with only a body imbued with the power of a dragon, without any special abilities.
“Oooh…….”
The hero otaku’s blood began to boil.
Of course, I have already met two top-tier heroes.
However, one of them was a classmate from the academy whom I had watched for a long time, and the other was a legitimate loli who never showed his face to the outside.
I could say that this was my first time meeting a true hero.
“I wonder if I can get an autograph if I go now…… ?”
I was thinking the same thing as when I went to meet Ex Machina, and was following Draconius surrounded by fans with my eyes.
“Okay, it’s out!”
Wow!
Ruina’s soft body clung to my arm.
“hehehe. “It came quickly before three minutes had passed.”
“Uh, huh. “Are you here, Yuri?”
“Huh? It’s kind of a sour reaction……. “What were you watching?”
Soon, Ruina’s eyes followed my gaze and turned towards Draconius.
“Eng. Why is that muscle lizard here?”
Come to think of it, Ruina is already spherical compared to Draconius.
He was one of the brave heroes who stopped Ruina when she was destroying the city in the south.
“Could it be that they came to catch me?”
“That’s definitely not the case… ….”
In any case, even Draconius would not have been able to see her face beyond Ruina’s mask.
“Let’s go back faster than expected. “I washed my hands and it was a little cold.”
“Uh, yes.”
Louis gently grabbed her arm and, at my urging, I nodded her head stiffly.
Ruina came back soon.
It’s unfortunate, but we have no choice but to give up Draconius’ cause of death.
Instead, should I ask Si-eun to get her autograph the next time we meet? ….
It was a time when I thought it was really rude.
“Huh?”
Is Dragon Hero somehow heading in the direction we should go?
Instead of heading straight to the rest area, Draconius was stomping across the parking lot toward the luxury sedan where team leader Jang Se-hee was waiting.
Eventually.
“Oh. I never thought I would see an S-Class 12 cylinder here. Hmm? The person riding inside……. Maid?”
Draconius’ deep voice resonates loudly, befitting his large size.
I couldn’t get closer to the car, so I had a hunch right away.
I got caught up in another unexpected event.
