547 – Burning (3)
Children grow up in the blink of an eye. This is a phrase you hear often wherever you go.
The moment when the above words came to life is the families of the celebrities. The children who came out of the parenting program suddenly entered middle school.
If you look at it and check when the program started, it is at least 5 years ago. I thought that time had passed longer than I thought.
There is nothing special about this world. Lily, the youngest sister of the Myshal family, has now moved beyond crawling and started learning to walk.
It was a new feeling to see a child who was busy wriggling in the cradle grow that much. If you even babble here, the icing on the cake.
In this way, children have the characteristics of growing rapidly, but they literally grow rapidly, not suddenly.
It means that a 5-year-old child does not grow into a 10-year-old child as if there is some kind of evolution.
As far as ‘mortals’ go.
“Ariel?”
“Yes. Dad.”
“······”
The morning after the chaotic dawn passed and everyone woke up. I looked at Ariel, who was sitting on the bed.
Golden eyes shining brightly, shiny red hair. Even slightly pointed ears and translucent wings sprouting from the back.
Any way you look at it, it’s Ariel. All the clothes I was originally wearing have gotten smaller, so I’m wearing them as if I’m wearing my shirt.
However, I felt a severe sense of disparity between the words of honor and the growth of my body.
“… are you really Ariel?”
In an absurd situation, Marie asked in a voice that was half absurd and half cautious.
I must be tired from staying up all night, but it seems that it has been a long time since my drowsiness disappeared.
And Ariel nodded at Marie’s question and answered in a kind voice.
“Yes. That’s Ariel. My mother’s daughter Ariel.”
“Ariel didn’t use honorifics…”
“Then why don’t you say something respectful?”
“That’s Ariel.”
Instead of honorifics imbued with elegance, short words that hop like rabbits came out.
No matter who heard it, it was Ariel’s unique way of speaking, so even Marie had no choice but to understand.
I stared blankly at Ariel, who smiled brightly, then asked Marie a question.
“…Is it possible that I came to the future five years later or something like that?”
“If so, when I woke up, I would have been in a mansion, not a dormitory. You fool.”
“Well.”
That makes sense too. In any case, it means that Ariel grew rapidly overnight.
It’s because I don’t know the reason at all. Ariel is an angel, not a demon or an elf, so it doesn’t work for Ariel.
I stared at Ariel with my arms crossed, and then opened my mouth as if I noticed something.
“Come to think of it, Hirt-sama said before. Angels grow according to their mental growth. Is that the case with Ariel?”
“Or maybe Ariel absorbed all the divine power in your body. Does Ariel know anything?”
“do not know.”
Ariel shook her head. In the end, it was an issue that had to be passed on for the time being.
Besides, Ariel is also Ariel, but my condition is also important. Now I need to tidy up.
“Isaac-nim. Are there any places where you feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable?”
Kate, who was in charge of nursing with Cecily, asked me in a cautious voice.
Immediately, I opened my hands and examined every part of my body. Unlike suffering from a high fever for 15 days, I feel refreshed because I am not fine.
Not only that, but things have changed as well. Even though it is dark at dawn, the view is as clear as morning, or the body is overflowing with energy, etc.
However, those were all internal phenomena, and the external phenomena were more noticeable.
“There’s nothing in particular. But, something about my body…”
“Are you generally cleaner?”
“yes.”
Cecily seemed to be of the same mind as me, so she said what I wanted to say instead.
There was a time when I secretly washed at dawn when everyone was asleep, and as if I was peeling, the skin peeled off and new skin was revealed.
I used to have fair skin because of the nature of my job as a writer, but now it’s clearer. It is white enough to be compared to Marie.
‘Doesn’t this usually appear in martial arts?’
Metamorphosis, the transformation of the body structure while gaining enlightenment reaching transcendence or overwhelming force.
There is no need to explain, a really famous phenomenon or a case like me is a little different.
Except for the new skin, nothing has changed.
“Your skin is skin, but your body seems to have grown a little too?”
“yes?”
“Stand up for once.”
I got up slowly from the bed as requested. In case I stumbled, Kate supported me.
When I stood up, Marie stood by me to check.
“That’s right. It’s definitely grown.”
“Somewhat?”
“I don’t know about that, but it sure has grown.”
Marie says while measuring her height with mine. The way it lifts to tiptoe is really cute.
‘Did I really have a metamorphosis?’
I was dumbfounded and scratched the back of my head.
It’s hard to digest divinity with just a few bowls, so if it was forced to metamorphose, it’s pretty much right.
I’ll have to ask God to figure out the details. Since it is Mora’s divinity, I plan to visit her once.
‘Ehh. I have to do serialization as well.’
There is too much to do. The good news is that the metamorphosis and Ariel’s growth have put an end to it.
If something strange happened here again, my mentality would have been shaken.
smart tock-
[I’m here. Can I go inside?]
As I was looking around, someone knocked on the door. When I heard her voice, I thought it was Leona.
If you ask me why Leona came here, she also told me what condition I was in.

Like Marie, she is in charge of the night watch and remembers that she took care of her with all her heart.
kiik-
“Is Isaac… uh? Is he awake?!”
As soon as Leona came inside, she found me and turned bright. It is an expression full of love and relief.
Then she threw off her shoes and strode toward me.
At some point, the blue eyes turn to golden, and the tail hidden in the pants comes out and rustles violently.

Leona also worked hard to take care of me, so I plan to receive affection without want.
“Where are you sick… huh?”
“Hello! Cat mom!”
Of course, I had a brain freeze after seeing Ariel, who suddenly grew up overnight. Ariel, in fact, was busy raising her hand to welcome him.
At the same time, Leona’s golden eyes began to tremble like aspen trees. Well, no matter who sees it, that’s the reaction.

Looking at her expression, which seemed to be asking for an explanation, I brought out a rough explanation.
“I see. Angels are angels?”
“maybe?”
“But it’s good that nothing special happened. Then you…”

Leona kept quiet and looked me up and down. I tilted my head to see if there was something intuitively like Mari.
Then she crossed her arms and opened her mouth in an ambiguous tone.
“My body has also grown, so why do I want to be held in your arms?”
“yes?”
“You guys don’t? I want to be hugged and petted by him right now, right?”
While I wondered, Leona looked around and asked for opinions. In the meantime, the animal ears that sprouted on top of her head pricked up.
But contrary to Leona’s opinion, what about women? With only a look on their faces, they exchanged a word with each other.
“Well? I’m not sure. Can you explain more about how you feel?”
“How can I say it? It feels like my instincts are constantly tempting me?
“Well······”
At those words, Cecily turned her gaze to me. The other women also moved their gazes after her.
Seeing all kinds of eyes focus on me, it’s kind of subtle… There is nothing else to express.
“You don’t really feel that way, do you? I’m just happy that Isaac is all better.”
“Me too. I wanted to be hugged like that from the beginning.”
“Neither do I.”
In the end, it was Leona who was embarrassed. She let out an embarrassing laugh and scratched the area around her mouth.
However, you should know that Leona is a prisoner. Although he is of mixed blood, he also has the instinct of a beastman.
Besides, she never talks nonsense. I’d rather ask for a hug if I ask for a hug, because I don’t express it in that way.
“Anyway, it’s all healed, so let’s get it sorted out. Is there any news we should care about?”
“Since I’m not serializing, people are saying that I’m not feeling well. A letter came from Mr. Musk.”
“What about your family?”
“Of course you were worried. You woke up today, so you can call me.”
The first time I said that I had collapsed from a fever, he came to visit me without looking back.
However, as her condition worsened, she did not even know that her parents had come to visit her.
The fact that I stayed in the dormitory instead of going to the mansion was also because my condition was so bad.
At that time, I was in a state like glass that would break if I touched it.
‘It’s too vivid for something like that.’
Sooner or later, I’ll check my physical condition, and when Kate is training with Grandpa Clark, I’ll be able to train with both sides.
Now, I have to start with serials that have been pushed back. Time was tight, but I wasted 15 days.
I checked every part of my body once again. Clean skin is also skin, but it is to reconfirm that there is no change anywhere.
“Well······”
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Luckily it’s fine It’s even better because I’ve grown beyond normal.
Finally, I checked my lower back and looked around. Beautiful women are looking at me with different expressions.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Looking at it like this, how can I say it… There are many people who care for me and love me, so I naturally smiled happily.
Here’s a daughter who can’t help but love, let alone hate. There was nothing lacking.
‘I’m glad I’m really alive.’
Once again, I felt grateful for this reality. A life I would never have enjoyed in my previous life.
I was able to make more resolutions after overcoming a near-death crisis. That the devil worshipers wouldn’t be easily defeated by all sorts of tricks.
I made a firm commitment that I would step in and resolve the situation myself, not the people around me going through a crisis.
In order to do that, I have to unblock the serials that have been blocked. I put my ass on the bed and asked about the situation.
“Isn’t there anything other than serialization?”
“There is. I don’t care too much about it.”
Other than that, the Kingdom of Terse was touching the Minerva Empire without even trying, or the heat was spreading again in Stabirk, which had been quiet, etc.
During the 15 days I was down, the world situation was not very good. Fortunately, the factory is operating well and the supply shortage is resolved.
I don’t know anything else, but there is nothing I can do about the international situation right now. For now, the best thing to do is to keep posting regularly.
“Okay. Then I’ll have to send the serials first. Shall I open the window first? I think I need to ventilate.”
When I asked as I headed toward my desk, everyone nodded as if it didn’t matter. The window is right behind the desk.
I could open the window while taking out the series from the desk drawer. Without thinking, I opened the window wide.
“Cheeps! Chirps!”
“uh?”
And one bird is this time! and came inside. It is a cute little bird with brown feathers and a small body.
“Caw! Caw! Caw!”
“Coo-goo! Goo-goo!”
But other birds came pouring in. I hastily closed the window.
Cock! Cock cock! Cock!
As soon as the window is closed, birds that have not yet entered begin to peck with their beaks. I looked through the window with a bewildered expression.
Birds flapping their wings or bursting into cries as if telling them to open up. I don’t know what kind of situation this is.
“Cheap! Chirp! Chirp!”
“Caw! Caw!”
Especially the birds that rub their heads against my body. It’s like being a druid.
Having received the birds’ charm all of a sudden, I slowly turned my head with a bewildered expression.
Everyone else has their eyes wide open, not knowing what the situation is.
The bigger problem is…
[Pause me! stroke me! stroke it!]
[me too! me too!]
[me too! me too!]
Words of unknown origin resound in my head.
I looked around at the birds perched on my shoulder and head.
[saw! You saw me!]
[Look at me! look at me!]
[This way! this way!]
Well. I don’t know anything else, but I know this one.
It will be difficult to go outside for a while.

Blood and Steel, which was temporarily suspended due to Isaac’s collapse.
Many people were concerned about Isaac’s health, but soon news came that a new book was coming from the publishing house.
The contents of the Blood and Steel new edition can be defined in two ways. German invasion of Norway and internal problems in France.
Here, I focused on the internal problems of France rather than the invasion of Norway, and I did not forget to explain the famous ‘Hélang’ in many ways.
The reason why France set up the ‘Maginot Line’ was because the troops were divided due to Elang.
and the world.
[How dare you ignore the knight’s spirit!]
[The most important thing for a soldier is mental strength! No matter how strong you are, you cannot win with a weak mind!]
[Why does Zenon ignore his indomitable spirit?]
It started to burn in various ways.
