4. Omen – (8)
***
……
Chersha is going down the Glaad Mansion with Celua’s guidance.
Chersha blankly touches her lips as she moves her steps following her guide. His heat still came to my mind as if it had left a small trace on my lips.
And now, just a few minutes after she broke up with him, she was missing a trace of him.
I still want to be with him.
In this place where he was, she wanted to talk more and share warmth with him.
The fire of a small heart that had settled in my heart had already turned into a huge one, and it seemed as if it would swallow me as it is.
No, maybe he had already been consumed by that emotion.
Even now, even at this moment, he thought of Ed and only thought of making him his own.
Own articles.
A knight who makes a contract with a wizard.
All of that was just an excuse after all.
Because I wanted to make him completely my own.
“…”
The moment he heard the rejection from Ed in the drawing room.
I kept trying to force myself to put my emotions to rest. However, in the end, after hearing all of his words, he seemed to be clinging to him as if bursting out.
After that, in the end, he realized his ugliness and tried to leave the drawing room, albeit belatedly.
Ed suddenly caught up with himself.
And that moment when we faced each other at such a close distance that we could feel each other’s breath. He couldn’t contain himself in the end.
The moment we met, Ed’s face continued to ache in my heart even as I filled my eyes with it..
At the same time, my heart surged again with overwhelming emotions.
Seeing Ed’s attitude that he would not let him go like this, he seemed to want that. I stood there as if nailed to the spot and looked at him.
“…”
Because at that moment, he wasn’t the only one holding back the sadness that filled his heart.
Ed’s pale blue eyes were full of shadows, as if he were showing me deep sorrow.
It was only when they met so closely that he could feel the deep emotion in Ed’s eyes.
Ed, who continued to speak in a calm voice, pretending to be calm on the outside, as if nothing was wrong, was no longer there.
A gaze that continued to sway violently.
Two big eyes. Blue eyes full of water.
Even his trembling hand, which he held onto himself.
The moment he saw that he was in fact shaking as much as he was, he erased from his mind that he was giving up.
I couldn’t hold back my emotions anymore.
As if being swept away by a huge flow of emotions, it hit me like an irresistible force.
“…”
After that, his soft lips touched.
The heat of his colliding softly and roughly as if swallowing his own clumsy lips.
The soft lips that kept touching each other while sobbing a little as if emotionally charged.
“Ha ha.”
As if Chersha’s face grew hot just by thinking about it. As she moved her steps, she let out a blank, excited breath.
But that’s only for a while.
As if a cool breeze caresses you through an open window.
The heat that filled my body gradually cooled down.
The feeling of happiness that had filled my heart until recently was rapidly fading away like a bubble disappearing in an instant.
What filled her mind after that was the appearance and behavior of a female knight.
The way he naturally led Ed’s arm without hesitation.
And Ed accepts it casually.
At the sudden action of Ashera grabbing his arm and leading him, Ed gave a small glance to himself and left.
That kept bothering me. The distance between Ashera and Ed felt strangely close.
“You. Are you a servant of the Glaad family?”
That’s why I opened my mouth without knowing it.
“Yes. Yes, but do you have any questions?”
From noble mtl dot com.
As if Selua, who was leading her way down the mansion, noticed Chersha’s expression, she nodded her head and asked again.
“Asera, she is… Good friends with Ed, right?”
Even Sellua hesitated for a moment at the words of Chersha, who hesitated at a certain point. But that, too, soon licked her lips.
“Yes. You two are pretty close.”
However, she answered only the contents of the question, and as if sparing no further words, she did not say anything after that.
‘Pretty close.’
It was such a subtle statement.
The reason why I dared to use the word quite is that there is something in the relationship between the two.
Clap.
With the sound of the huge mansion’s door opening, I saw the site inside the mansion.
“Chersha…!”
Chersha belatedly realized that she had forgotten about the existence of Plea at the familiar sound of her calling.
“Plea…Ah?”
Chersha’s face, which had been speaking at the same time as she opened her eyes to one side of the site, changed slightly in an instant.
That’s definitely a face with a feeling of doubt.
Plea She got the feeling that her something was out of the ordinary.
It was not like her who always showed a lively and bright appearance from beginning to end. She seemed to have sunk a lot, as if she had killed her emotions.
“Come on, let’s go back. We.”
“Okay… Go back and talk to me.”
Chersha, who responded with a calm voice to that faintly trembling voice, continued to look at Plea with a deep gaze.
***
Northern Mountains Unexplored Area 1.
“Huh.”
The moment Harjan faced the scene, a deep silence leaked out without his knowledge.
“…”
Next to her, Gallia, who, unlike usual, didn’t say anything, raised her bow and watched her surroundings with ferocious eyes.
“I already left. Gallia, you don’t have to be so vigilant.”
She already has a Harzan wrapped in mana all over her own body. Even now, he put about 10 meters in all directions on my surveillance net and was watching his presence, and he tried to relax the tense Gaul.
“It’s okay.”
Galia, who answered with a short answer in a 180 degree different way than usual, still looked around her and was wary.
Harzan gave a brief glance at Gallia’s appearance, then sighed inwardly.
A guy with a trauma about the unexplored land request suddenly volunteered for the investigation team.
The guy who would vehemently reject anyone doing it normally.
For a moment, Harzan turned his gaze to the scene.
Through the vegetation immersed in the deep darkness, the horrors that were dyed in red and emitting color were clearly seen.
Nothing was neat.
Truly a horror. Other than that, it was hard to put into words.
‘The Kalos party, which had three A-class mercenaries, suffered like this.’
Harjan weighed heavily on his heart.
It was a situation that should not be taken lightly.
It was a horror that took place in the same area as the entrance, not in the deepest area 4 of the unexplored land.
Things that seemed to be human body parts were scattered here and there.
It meant that they didn’t attack to eat humans like the beast’s instinct.
So simply to kill the humans who invaded my area?
Or hatred of humans?
It was none of that.
A chunk of flesh that appears to be someone’s arm in front of you.
It drew my attention because it formed a very clean cross-section.
That’s why he was able to guess the thoughts of the Witchbeast.
It was playing with humans.
How cruel his personality is among the monsters. I couldn’t even guess easily.
“…”
I could see the Gaul guy’s eyes continuing to tremble as he watched the scene from the side holding his breath.
The face was severely damaged, so it was impossible to tell who was who even when the body was dead.
However, traces of human limbs were scattered all over the place.
“Quaaa !!”
A sound like a scream suddenly heard from behind.
I could tell whose scream it was without thinking too much about it.
Harzan unknowingly brushed my face and exhaled heavily.
‘…Rien or something.’
Now I knew you as a newbie who had been a mercenary for less than two years.
After that, a woman quickly ran to me and caught the terrible scene in her eyes.
On one side of my heart, I thought I should stop, but the world of mercenaries was not so light that I couldn’t bear to see the corpses of my colleagues.
This was like a huge ordeal he had to go through while living as a mercenary.
As if he was devastated for a moment. Rien collapsed on the spot.
One hand that went ahead of her reaching out herself.
Pak!
Turning her gaze, the expressionless Galia first reached out her hand and threw her into a lush vegetation, not into a puddle of her blood, as if she had been caught and thrown away.
“Gup!”
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry. I’m sorry…Uhhhhh…”
While moaning at the pain of being thrown away from her, the woman blankly covered her face with her two hands and sobbed endlessly.
“Shouldn’t you have been a little gentler?”
Harzan sighed lightly and spoke as if rebuking Gaul.
It would be difficult to lose her colleagues, but did she have to go that far?
“If you are going to die, tell me to die somewhere else. Stop shaking in front of her.”
Galia, who had spoken coldly, was still holding her bow and was wary of her surroundings.
If Gallia hadn’t stretched out her hand and grabbed the body of a woman named Rien. She would have collapsed into that puddle of her blood, which glowed deep red.
The danger itself was huge for her body to touch the space polluted by the corpse of her demon beast.
On the outside, he said it coldly, but in reality, Gallia was the one who saved a woman named Rien.
“Ugh… Captain Carlos, Emily… I’m sorry…! I’m sorry! I need to come back stronger…I should have said that…”
Har Jan, who had calmed her mind at the sound of a woman’s cries echoing behind her, let out a deep breath as if frustrated.
This was reality.
The North has never been safe.
Not even the safety someone would be enjoying right now.
In the end, something made at someone’s expense.
And it came more brutally against the mercenaries.
They face death every day.
That’s why sometimes I had to face such a cruel reality.
Whenever he thought about the life of a mercenary, Harzan would face the present reality.
