262. Cheeky Karite – (2)
***
Saaa!
Immediately after holding Karite’s hand.
“ah… … .”
All I felt when I held her hand was just… a sense of mystery.
something unknown.
A special sensation experienced for the first time.
‘It seems that water has a will.’
Originally, I expected that the moment I held her hand, the waves would wet my hands and arms and spread further.
But that wasn’t it.
Only the part corresponding to the hand I was holding weakened the intensity of the wave. Even if my hands got wet because of that, it wasn’t enough to wet my hands and arms.
Rather, it is a calm and gentle wave.
It made me realize how much restraint Karite, who controls water, had.
“how is it? Are you sure?”
“I can definitely feel it. I don’t quite get it, but I think I know you’re dealing with water completely.”
“To say it’s perfect, there are still some areas that are lacking. But just wrapping my body in waves like this now gives me a completely different strength than before. Basically, resistance and friction can be completely erased. It’s because the destructive power has also increased along with the incomparable movement speed in terms of moving.”
Karite, who explained in a voice full of confidence, looked very excited.
And I thought she deserved it.
‘It’s definitely different.’
In addition, looking at Karite, I felt more that the evolution of characteristics can vary from person to person.
It wasn’t like she just got a skill or something like that. I only realized the concept of a new power by going to the 4th level of the attribute.
Still, she was like this.
“It sure sounds like a great power. To the point where I can’t think of anything else… It also shows infinite utility.”
“Since you say so, I am more than happy.”
Looking at Karite’s bright smile, I inadvertently thought of that.
I definitely thought that Karite had changed.
Positive and cheerful personality. There is no more gloomy and gloomy expression from before.
But that’s not it… maybe.
‘Isn’t this originally Karite’s personality?’

Now, quite a bit of time has passed since I was freed from Leteia’s influence. Karite showed a different appearance every time he ran into him.
And it was completely natural.
To the extent that the Karite I see now feels like her original beauty and bright personality.
Seruk.
Then, when I felt the strength in my hand, my thoughts stopped.
“Actually there is. I really… I tried really hard. You don’t know how much I’ve been thinking of you all this time.”
“me?”
“huh. I was impatient whenever I heard how much you were growing. Even though I only heard about it through rumors, I felt like I suddenly felt a wall from you.”
“Walls, what… you don’t have to think about that.”
I laughed out loud as I spoke.
It could be said that it was a result obtained because I went through abnormal crises several times and overcame them all.
The achievement and overwhelming growth that I was able to achieve ‘because of that’. It wasn’t something that would make someone look at me and feel the wall.
Because I didn’t grow up normally.
“Still, I really felt a lot. Because you are ahead and growing fast, but my achievements were still too low. Even when I meet you later, I feel like I will continue to be conscious of that… .”
“…So that’s why you refused even when I went to visit you?”
“huh. And for the rest of the time, I worked really hard. Until my achievements are not greatly pushed back. Even if I talk to you, I know you will speak kindly like you do now, but I wanted to be proud of myself.”
He explains his reasons and reveals his efforts.

Now that she has grown to that extent and is proudly looking at me… I felt dazzling. Before I knew it, she tried so hard.
Attribute level 2 to 4 in one month.
A growth rate that cannot be explained by common sense.
‘I wonder how much Karite worked… … .’
shake.
While watching Karite holding my hand and smiling brightly, I suddenly felt that the distance between her and her was a little closer.
There is really no hesitation and no sense of distance.
and. Suddenly, her words caught my attention.
‘Remember me… .’
It came out naturally, so I didn’t notice it for a moment. But Karite had been saying too much to me casually.
As if I am at the center of everything.
“There’s Agar Castle.”
“…uh. Karite.”
“Do I look different now?”
“Not now, but I’ve always never looked at you badly.”
“Even so, I wanted to hear more from you now. If it were me now, I wouldn’t be a hindrance to you, so I thought it would be okay to be with you.”
……The more I listened to her answer, the more I remembered a fact I had overlooked.
maybe i
‘Maybe I didn’t properly think about how I would appear to Karite.’
My good intentions, various emotions, and even the actions I had when I visited her.
“You can stay with me.”
“yes? Now I think I can be a little more proud. In my heart, I wanted to reach the same level 5 talent as you, but at that time, I really didn’t think I could make a promise… I have it. I will try harder in the future!”
Watching Karite speak energetically at the end, I involuntarily swallowed.
gulp.
I even felt the tension at times. If you think about it, we were like that from the beginning.
The time when I tried to help Karite unconditionally and give her willpower. I already realized that she could misunderstand me.
i like her That’s why he acted to the extent that he seemed to have a heart.
At that time, I had to do that.
Because I thought that I was the only one who could support Karite and raise her up. Because I thought that I should support the pain and hardship she went through.
Even if I misunderstand her, I can’t help it.
Seruk.
When I let go of the hands that were gently clasped, I naturally retrieved them.
“excuse me. agaric. Wait a minute… Can you turn around? I’m trying to unlock this power now. Then I feel like I’ll show you all of my naked body…”
And suddenly, seeing that embarrassed look, I turned my body right away.
“…take it slow.”
“huh. I’ll put my clothes back on right away.”
Hearing those words, he blankly gazed at the empty training ground.
‘I… what should I do?’
I thought about it, but I knew the answer.
-Now is the time.
-The time has come to clear up Karite’s misunderstandings.
Looking at her words and actions now, there was a high possibility that Karite was misunderstanding that I still liked her.
Squeak, squeak.
The time when the sound of clothes brushing against my skin stimulated my ears.
…My heart was greatly shaken.
Then maybe I’ll hurt Karite. It seemed to me that I could already picture her suffering.
***
Squeak, squeak.
I put on the skirt first, then put the dress shirt I had taken off over my arm.
Karite’s heart pounded loudly as she slowly put on the hem of her clothes.
‘Han Chun-seong…what is he thinking right now?’
Glance.
When I turned my head, I saw the back of Han Chun-seong, who was still staring at the floor as she turned away from me.
He believes in my words and follows what I ask for.
Spending time together for the first time in a long time.
Han Chun-seong was still kind and very cool.
And the startled reaction shown to me just a moment ago… It was as much as I expected, no, more than that, giving me a sense of satisfaction that seemed to completely fill my heart.
ㅡThe feeling of being acknowledged.
The satisfaction of the moment when I properly imprinted my value and the need for my existence in Han Chun-seong captured my entire body the most among the emotions I felt in the past few years.
Happiness overflowed and seemed to burst outward.
Tok. Tok.
Even as I buttoned up my shirt, my heart was beating loudly.
My heart was pounding like it was about to burst, and I was filled with embarrassment at the foolish thing I had done without realizing it.
‘Because I showed my body.’
The first time I took off my clothes and manifested my strength.
I deliberately made the intensity of the wave that wrapped around me a bit shallow.
So, the moment Han Chun-seong raised his head, he gave me a glimpse of my body.
I deliberately showed off my well-groomed body over the stylish black underwear I wore.
…cheeky behavior.
And after that, when I approached her and made her hold her hand or talked to her, my heart was beating.
However, seeing Han Chun-seong’s reaction gave me courage.
Follow me, don’t hate me or reject me.
In addition to my confidence in achievement, my confidence as a woman continued to fill my body.
‘you can do it.’
While thinking… I lifted the jacket of the last cadet—- and slowly relaxed.
Seruk.
Looking at the jacket that fell to the floor without strength again, he cautiously stepped forward.
With only a shirt and skirt on, I made up my mind again.
He said that he wanted to slowly approach Han Chun-seong, who was defenselessly showing his back to me, barefoot without even wearing shoes and making no sound.
It seems like I’m letting the pure Agar-seong fall into my tricks, but there was no hesitation to the extent of being strange.
Sarak.
I also erased the friction with the water I used under my feet, completely erasing my presence.
gulp.
…Even as I swallowed my saliva silently, I became nervous without even realizing it.
I definitely took the right step today, and I got that much closer to Han Chun-seong.
I came closer than I thought, but it felt like it wasn’t enough. On top of this sense of fulfillment, my heart was yearning for him even more.
‘A little more… .’
Because I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time
I want to get closer.
That time when it was almost close to Han Chun-seong.
“ha… .”
I stopped at the sound of a heavy sigh.
‘Why are you sighing like that?’
It was clearly a tired sigh.
Does Han Chun-seong have worries or worries that I don’t know about?
While thinking, I took action.
“Agar Castle.”
Calling him with all my heart, I gently hugged Han Chun-seong, who showed me a defenseless backside, from behind.
flinch.
“…Karite!?”
Hearing the completely startled voice, I gave him more strength and hugged him.
“Just a minute… stay like this.”
