73 – Hometown (2)
5 Minutes ago.
Liza cleaned the dishes using water magic.
She shook the water off her hands and then tried to go to her own room.
At that time.
“Hmm?”
The black robe draped over the chair was visible.
That is none other than the robe that Kael wears.
Seeing it hanging on the chair like this, it is clear what his room is like just by looking at it.
“Ha. Nothing has changed since before.”
Even when he was young, his room was messy.
Didn’t he always put on his outer clothes?
‘I’ll have to visit later.’
Thinking so, she tried to hang the robe on her hanger.
But at that moment.
-Tuk!
Suddenly something fell on the floor.
Lisa moved her gaze down to see what had fallen.
Then, she saw something made of pink rubber in her vision.
When Lisa saw that, her eyes widened.
“Uh, huh?!”
Her face turned red in an instant.
Soon, her eyes started spinning and she picked it up.
‘I see, Kael was planning on doing that with me.’
She swallows her dry saliva as she looks at the pink condom.
Then, she nodded with a solemn look on her face.
‘I have to do that today.’
With that thought, she finished her preparations.

After hearing all the explanations, Kael let out her deep breath.
She never imagined that she would be misunderstood in this way with just a condom.
“Kael?”
At that time, Lisa tilts her head with a puzzled look on her face.
Her golden hair touches her cheek.
At the same time, a fragrant smell tickles the tip of her nose.
Kael shook her head, then quickly came to her senses.
“Hmm, I guess I misunderstood something.”
“Misunderstanding?”
“Okay. “I didn’t put that in, it was Meria who secretly put it in.”
“What if it’s Meria, the Magic Tower Lord?”
“Yes.”
“Looking at your eyes, I don’t think you’re lying.”
“There’s no reason to lie about something like this, right?”
“Ha. “Okay then.”
At his answer, Lisa lets out a deep breath.
That moment when I feel relieved that fortunately the misunderstanding has been resolved.
“I understand that. Then let’s move on to something else.”
“Something else? “What are you talking about?”
“Honestly, Kael, you know. My heart.”
“······.”
At those words, Kael closed her mouth.
In fact, she vaguely knew.
She realizes that she has a crush on none other than herself.
‘I noticed it even before I knew its identity.’
While Kael was thinking this, Liza brought her face closer.
Just before they kissed, their faces became closer.
I can feel her breathing.
Her unique scent irritates her nose even more.
At that time when Kael was trying to be calm.
“So when are you going to answer me?”
“······.”
Kael thought slowly.
In the past, I would have answered that question without hesitation.
However, several years have passed since then.
So, I don’t know what he thinks of her now.
“Lisa.”
“Hmm?”
“Can you wait?”
“Is there a reason?”
“I don’t know how I feel about you right now. “If I’m going to give an answer at least, I think I need to give an accurate answer as to what this feeling is.”
“So… It’s not a rejection, right?”
“Okay. No.”
At her question, Kael nodded with her face filled with confidence.
Then, she slowly comes away.
Soon, Lisa asks in her puzzled voice.
“Then when are you going to answer me?”
“Hmm.”
Coldly speaking, now is not the time to think about love.
Starting with the demons, shouldn’t we also think about the demons of the other world?
‘It doesn’t matter if it’s something I can solve on my own.’
The problem is never something you can do alone.
Didn’t the monster from another world I met last time also have extraordinary power?
There are not just one or two people like that.
As a result, there is a need to make the children in the S class grow up quickly.
After organizing her thoughts, Kael slowly opened her mouth.
“I’ll let you know when everything is over.”
“Hmm. Yeah, that’s enough. Okay then, I’ll just leave.”
With those words, she leisurely leaves.
Cael, left alone in the room, took a deep breath.
“Whoa. “There are more than one thing to think about.”

The next day.
The two people who came after getting ready early in the morning had awkward expressions on their faces.
And among them, the person who was the wisest was none other than Lisa.
‘Ugh!!! ‘Why on earth did you do that?!’
I was so intoxicated by the atmosphere that I took a bold action without even realizing it.
I’m sure I did this a lot in the past, but now that I’m older, I feel embarrassed all over again!
That time when the two were awkwardly standing in front of the village head’s house for a moment.
“Are you ready to go?”
The village head approaches and asks a question.
Lisa nodded her head at that question.
“Yes, I came to see the chief’s face.”
“Hmm. I see. Hmm?”
The village head suddenly looks at the two people in turn.

Soon, he asks with a puzzled face.
“Did you two do it?”
“Keuhum!”
The next moment, the two people cleared their throats.
Lisa answered quickly before she was misunderstood.
“I didn’t do it. “We’re not in that relationship yet!”
“Hmm. Looking at the atmosphere, it looks like they really didn’t do it.”
He quietly shifts his gaze to Kael.
Soon, he shook his head as if he was pitiful.
“Ah, you were a eunuch.”
“······.”
Kael, who heard that the village chief was forcing him to become a eunuch, was so dumbfounded that he just laughed.
After talking a little more with the village head, I left for Rico Village.
***
A village destroyed by demons.
Kael and Riza slowly headed towards the carriage.
Soon, Lisa asks a question.
“Now that I think about it, Kael.”
“Hmm?”
“That village was destroyed.”
“That’s right.”
“Then people also…”
“Okay. “There are no survivors but us.”
At those words, Liza’s face becomes somewhat depressed.
Even if she left the village without saying a word, she would probably know quite a few people there.
It is natural for her to feel so depressed thinking that someone she knows has died.
“You are okay. Kael?”
“It’s okay now. “It’s been a while.”
“Yes…”
An awkward silence passed between the two for a moment.
Then, Lisa asks in a serious voice.
“You said you went with the warrior’s party, right?”
“That’s right.”
“But what did you do before you became an archmage?”
“Hmm.”
Kael thought about it carefully.
At the time, Kael was abandoned by the warrior party and slaughtered his demons.
I don’t know how many demons I had to kill to forget the past.
‘I don’t know how to explain this.’
If I’m being honest, I feel like I’m going to get hit on for some reason.
He was locked inside the house without conducting a proper investigation, thinking he had been dumped by a woman.
They massacred the surrounding demons because they were kicked out by the warrior party.
Looking at it now, there is nothing more disgusting than this.
So, I had no choice but to omit Kael in one line.
“I just killed the demons.”
“Oh, really? But why are you making such a sly face?”
“It’s an illusion.”
“Uh, huh.”
Reza scratched her cheek, feeling embarrassed by such a firm answer.
At that time.
“We have arrived!”
At some point, we arrived at our destination.
The two people got off the carriage.
Then, Kael handed over her bag of money.
Then, the coachman smiled in satisfaction.
Soon, a light bulb appears on the top of his head, as if he remembered something.
“Now that I think about it, they say there’s something ghost-like wandering around here.”
“Yes?”
When Riza heard those words, her eyes opened wide.
She had no idea that the word “Ghost” Would come out.
“You mean a ghost, not an undead?”
“If it were undead, a passerby would have called the adventurer.”
In response to Kael’s question, the coachman shakes his head and denies it.
Then, he adds an explanation.
“They say it comes out at night, so be careful. “I warned you.”
With those words, the carriage leisurely leaves.
Kael quickly turned her head.
The next moment, Lisa looks at the entrance to the village, mesmerized.
“Of course, it wouldn’t be strange if a ghost were to appear. “Have you ever seen anything in particular, Kael?”
“Hmm.”
I come here once a year.
However, she came during the day and returned shortly after, so she never saw a ghost.
“I’ve never seen anything in particular. “I’ve never been here at night.”
“What should I do?”
“Weren’t you planning on spending a day here anyway?”
“Yes, but.”
“Then you can check it. And what.”
There is a common misconception that people make.
When it comes to ghosts, people mistake them for being ridiculous beings that can never be touched, but that’s not the case.
There is also a separate magic that can exorcise ghosts.
And of course Kael can also use it.
“Wouldn’t it be enough to get rid of ghosts right away?”
With those words, Kael enters the village.
Lisa was lost for a moment.
-Whoa!
-Ososo.
The wind sent goosebumps down my spine.
Soon, he quickly followed behind Kael.
“Let’s go together! Kael!”
