Going to Islands and Being a Beast - 5

Going to Islands and Being a Beast – 5

I could hear the cry of Lord Majong above my head, but I didn’t look up. I didn’t hear it exactly, might be the right expression.

Even though he apologized, he didn’t want to see his face? That’s not it. To be honest, from the moment he saw Gong Ma’s miserable appearance, his heart was shaken. When he put down all his face and apologized, even the slightest resentment disappeared.

How can you hate that look? I apologize honestly without any excuses or self-justification.

‘This is against the rules.’

I even heard that kind of thought. I must have been wiping my feet when I started that apology. I was touching my feet, which was really miserable and pitiful.

No matter how clean the roads in the islands are, they are not safe enough to walk around barefoot. Besides, Gong Ma is just a weak woman who has not undergone any training except for her magic.

So she couldn’t lift her head. Looking at Jong-gong Ma now, she thought she would be angry for other reasons. She seemed to raise her voice asking why the hell did she do this, did she know I would like it.

Then Duke Ma will say she’s sorry again while crying. She is obvious

“Your Excellency.”

She took a short deep breath and looked up. She saw the image of Jonggong Ma crying like a child. Her emotions surged for a different reason than before.

“…Give me a comb.”

But she soon subsided. Because she’s too mad at the person who apologized for any other reason.

And at my words, Lord Ma became contemplative and shook her head.

“Oh, baby. This, this…”

She hugged her comb even more tightly. As if asking please don’t take this away, as if asking for forgiveness for this.

“I’m not asking for it back. Shouldn’t you brush your hair too?”

I let out a small sigh at the sight of her miserable appearance. No matter how angry she is, she gives a gift and she never takes it away. Didn’t even get angry now?

I’m just trying to brush her hair. Her dust had been wiped off earlier, but her hair, which was fittingly referred to as silk, was still scattered.

Fortunately, Jong-gong Ma carefully handed over the comb, as if he had calmed down. Even so, how many times did she notice?

“It will take a while.”

Once I sat down behind Lord Ma and gathered his hair together.

At first glance, it was long, but when I put it together like this, it’s amazing.

“It’s okay. Straighten up, relax.”

As I grabbed his hair, Jong-Gong Ma’s ears, which had been going down ever since, rose slightly.

…Let’s pretend we didn’t see this.

There was only silence. I couldn’t hear anyone whimpering or apologizing anymore.

I could barely hear the sound of the comb brushing against my hair and the loose hair rubbing against the blanket.

‘It’s soft.’

It was so quiet that I even had useless thoughts. It was really soft though.

It’s so soft that even a little brushing will make it easy to tidy up. Thanks to that, the work that I thought would take a long time progressed faster than expected.

I don’t know if this is because Prince Majong takes good care of him or if it’s an elf characteristic.

“Sobbing…!”

When the hand brushing his hair brushed his ear, a faint moan came out. Soon after, the ears flapped vigorously.

“I’m still mad.”

I went down the road at those words.

Of course this is a lie. There was nothing like anger at all. In the first place, he said, ‘I’m angry!’ It’s rare to be really angry with someone who says the same thing.

Just, just a little grumpy. Even though the anger was released, the inside was still complicated. I was confused about whether it was right to open my heart and forgive. In the midst of that, Ma Jong-gong’s emotional expression machine was working too hard, so he acted grumpy.

It’s childlike. It’s not something you do twice.

“Why did you say that?”

He continued to move his hand and spoke calmly.

“Can’t you come up with an excuse?”

However, the contents were not calm. Because I asked for the words that I really want to hear from the mouth of Jong-Gong Ma, the words that are contained in the depths of my heart.

“It’s for me, I could tell you that you’ll love it once you’ve calmed down.”

Jangsaeng. In a way, you can call it a blessing. Wouldn’t it be something everyone wants, even if they are longevity with wealth and honor?

Majonggong could say that. It’s because I’m excited, and I’ll like it after I cool my head.

“Or you could say it was because I was so sad, I didn’t want to lose myself.”

Or you could appeal to Majonggong’s recognition. I love you so much that I didn’t want to lose you. I hated the hundreds of years of living without you.

I could have been embarrassed if I said that. Just as I don’t want to be left alone after letting go of my ties, Ma Jong-gong doesn’t want to be left alone after letting me go.

“…Why, why didn’t you make any excuses?”

Even so, Prince Ma didn’t choose anything. I just say I’m sorry, I was wrong.

“Because I wanted to be honest.”

And Ma Jong-gong answered without hesitation.

“Because I already cheated on my baby. I didn’t say anything to her. I didn’t want to do it any more.”

The voice of Jong-Gong Ma who said that was a mix of shame and dejection.

I couldn’t see his expression because he was behind me, but his expression probably wasn’t very good either.

“How could you do something like that when you have to ask for forgiveness from your child…”

Gong Ma Jong’s head is getting lowered. Shoulders tremble little by little.

“You can’t hurt a baby and say you’re sick too.”

To say that you don’t have the right to appeal for recognition to yourself who has already cheated on me.

That’s why Prince Majong didn’t talk about lifespan. He didn’t even say that if I didn’t use the potion, he had to let me go first.

“…I’m really sorry. I’m sorry…”

Ma Jong-gong repeats the word sorry again. However, this time it was not an apology mixed with sobs and pleas. An apology as if something had been put down, as if it had detached itself.

“I was so selfish. I said I loved my baby, but I couldn’t really be considerate of my baby.”

After saying that, Jong-gong Ma cautiously turned around.

Tears that had barely stopped and started to flow again, smiles that were held in a subtle way.

“It was greed. I met the person I love more than anyone else, but I’m not satisfied with that and I want to be with you for the rest of my life.”

Ma Zonggong obviously smiled, but he is crying. He’s obviously crying, but he’s laughing.

It’s an expression I can see right in front of my eyes.

“Even if you don’t forgive me, if you don’t want to see me again, it’s my fault. You made the right choice.”

When I couldn’t open my mouth in the confusion, Jong-gong Ma smiled even thicker and continued with more tears.

“But, still, won’t you allow me to see my baby from afar, as much as I have in mind?”

And then, Prince Majong added softly. ‘I don’t mind if I don’t have hundreds of years after that, as long as I can see my baby.’ Called.

‘Damn it.’

As soon as I heard that, I got up from my seat. If you don’t calm down after hearing such words, you’re not a human being.

If Ma Jong-gong showed such sincerity, then I have to show an image that matches him.

“Oh, baby?”

I suddenly woke up, and Ma Jong-gong blinked as if he was embarrassed.

My heart broke at that sight, but I tried to look away and opened a nearby drawer. If I remember correctly, it must be here.

‘Yes.’

Fortunately, it was as I remembered. Butlers and servants said they were cleaning, but they didn’t.

About three bottles of potion huddled in a drawer. I set it aside to drink during summer vacation, but I forgot to take it back and kept it in the drawer.

I didn’t expect the by-product of forgetfulness to come back like this.

“Your Excellency.”

“Why, why?”

When I spoke with a serious expression, even holding a potion, Jong-gong Ma stuttered nervously.

I inhaled the potion while looking at Majonggong like that.

“…He said it would take 40 years for this to be effective.”

I let out a slight sigh. I wonder if this choice is the right one, but even so, no matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I’ll come up with a better option.

“There is still plenty of time. Until then, let’s think about it together.”

Whether I want to spend my life with Majonggong or find another way.

“So don’t talk nonsense about watching from afar.”

Where did you pick only faint lines and study them?

At the words that burst out with a sigh, Jong-gong Ma looked at me in a daze and started to shed tears again.

And then I quietly embraced Majonggong. It’s going to go on like this anyway, because I lost my temper and made only Ma Jong-gong cry.

“I’m sorry too, Your Excellency. I was angry for a while at the Mage Tower and said something I didn’t mean to.”

At those words, Prince Ma cried even more sadly.

More than my karma, it’s my karma.

Jonggong Ma, who had been sobbing for a long time, did not come out of his arms even after he had stopped crying.

I also said, ‘Now that you’ve calmed down, get away.’ He wasn’t crazy enough to say the same thing.

‘…What should I do?’

The problem is that the atmosphere is so awkward right now. It’s a happy ending because they both eased their minds, apologized, and restored their relationship.

But the current situation itself is too embarrassing. How can I fall less awkwardly and naturally have a conversation on a different topic?

‘Ah.’

As I glanced through the window, I saw the dark sky. Thanks, I came up with a suitable topic.

“Your Excellency, it’s late.”

I felt Majong-gong in my arms gripping the hem of his clothes.

I think I misunderstood. It’s late, go back to the mage tower, I didn’t mean to say the same thing.

If you saw it in the first place, you will never be able to forget it. Even so, if I go back to the Mage Tower alone in the middle of the night, what kind of stares will I get? The rumors that will spread tomorrow morning will be even more dire.

“It’s too dark to go back. Would you like to go to sleep if you don’t mind?”

Maybe he liked the words, Jong-Gong Ma nodded his head.

“Are you sleeping here, too?”

Then, Prince Ma carefully raised his head and opened his mouth.

Of course, each room. What are you talking about?

“…Yes. I will sleep on the sofa, but His Excellency can sleep on the bed.”

But when I saw the teary eyes, I naturally gave in.

Yeah, it’s okay to stay in the same room. It’s not the same bed.

“…….”

“Your Excellency?”

It’s strange. Suddenly, she buried her face in his chest and was speechless. At the same time, the hand holding the hem of his clothes is full of strength.

Honestly, it’s about the Demon King who can’t even use magic. Even if 100 people come in, he can rob it by force.

“…Are you sleeping?”

Gong Ma’s ears trembled at those words, but the main body remained silent. It’s as if he pretends to sleep.

‘What.’

You seem a bit surprised today.
