171 – Vacation Starts Now #1
“It’s okay, I’m here.”
I stood in front of the club room door and made a sly gesture.
So many things have happened in the past few days.
Club rooms that are rundown like old warehouses are now friendly.
Dalgak.
When I opened the lock and entered, the interior was cleaner than I thought.
The air is fresh as if it was clean and well ventilated without a speck of dust.
“Quiet. Elizabeth.”
Rated for one star.
Elizabeth for one star.
Call out the names of family members who should be in the club room.
But there was no answer coming back.
no one greeted me
If you see that the window is open and the curtains are fluttering, you must have gone out.
“Did you go to Akasha?”
Akasha Keeper.
He was impatient because he couldn’t give Kungkong or Elizabeth a high-calorie snack whenever he had a chance.
I don’t know how much he must have gained weight while I was gone.
It was when I was unpacking with that feeling.
“What, who is this?”
I could feel someone stopping in front of the open club room door.
When I turned my head, there was a woman in uniform with long straight, dark blue hair like chestnut.
“Hey, white stockings. Is it Akasha?”
“… Do you distinguish people by stockings?”
“It is also distinguished by socks.”
“… … .”
Akasha gave an expression of incomprehension.
Yes, the original dead person is a body that is not understood.
It was then.
ㅡKong-Kong… !
A rather familiar sound came.
It’s unbelievable, but how much I’ve missed these cries over the past few days… !
Full up.
ㅡKong-Kong… !
Something barked and landed on Akasha’s shoulder.
It was a spider that was as small as the palm of the hand, with an amazing white color.
“I’m sorry… ?”
A strange perplexity spreads through my mind.
Yes, it was because Kkyungkyong was wearing strange accessories.
“… what? Those strange rings?”
“What a strange ring. It is an accessory exclusively for wolf spiders.”
Akasha scolded me, saying, “I live with a wolf spider and you don’t even know that.”
It’s a wolf spider exclusive accessory.
The rings on each leg of the kong were very expensive and looked great.
is it real gold?
“It looks like a great luxury.”
“Yeah, it was expensive enough that I had to spend most of my hard-earned money. But Catherine is a beautiful spider. You deserve this kind of treatment. Whoop-.”
“is it.”
“But what about this? I made so many memories during this week with Catherine. Catherine might not want to go back to you anymore—.”
Full up.
Kyeong-Kyung jumped off Akasha’s shoulder, who was saying something.
Then he climbed onto my shoulder and greeted me by alternately raising his front leg.
-Hooong… !
“Yeah, nice to meet you too. A lot happened.”
“Keugh… ! Catherine, why… ? We’ve been good so far… . Are you going to go back to that man after all? That man only makes you suffer… !”
Akasha was talking like a man from an old drama.
Why, when you watch a drama that women like, there is always a bad guy who is the main character, and there is a female lead who is attracted to that bad guy.
And there is a nice man clinging to the heroine.
Overall, it felt like that.
“Catherine… .”
Akasha made a shocked face like someone who had a broken heart.
Soon after, he turned around and ran away.
“What the hell do you want to do, he?”
It seems weird every time I see it.
When I first saw it, I thought it would be very cool and chic.
ㅡKong-Kong… !
It was then that Kyeongkong talked to me.
Maybe you want to ask about Nike.
“Yeah, Nike is back too.”
-Hooong… .
“But he didn’t come to the club room. Nike is struggling in many ways.”
I set the kongkong down on the cushion and finished unpacking.
There was no such thing as fatigue because the body was strong.
I decided to sit down and rest.
vacation travel.
A lot more happened than I thought.
What will happen now?
“Count de Winter.”
First of all, I will name the person who is most likely to interfere with my healing life plan.
When I remembered that face and name, anger welled up within me, like magma quietly boiling in the depths of a volcano.
“You ruined my vacation trip.”
I should have cut it off then too.
I should have split it into 100/small with a single knife.
– Kreureung… !
“Yes, he was a very bad guy. Still, you will receive retribution for it.”
I looked at the past newspapers piled up in the club room.
Because I needed to confirm the news that happened in the meantime.
In general, there were many stories from the mainland.
Well, the story that the De Winter family caused a local armed conflict in an area adjacent to the Arclight or Blackstar family territories.
Huge whales have joined the fray, so even the shark-like Count won’t be safe.
The problem is that even in Ludens, there are people who are under the influence of the de Winter family.
* * *
“So, why did you come to see me?”
I headed to the restaurant first.
There was Rebekah, the only daughter of the de Winter family.
As soon as Rebekah saw me, she closed her eyes tightly as if something had come.
“I’ll tell you first, my father, Carlot, and I are different. Please know that I have no intention whatsoever in what is happening.”
“But you are from the de Winter family, Rebekah. As long as you bear that name, no matter how neutral Ludens is, there will be no aftermath.”
Ludens is a neutral zone.
It’s a place watched over by the gods.
But there is no such thing as neutrality in the human mind.
“Rebekah, you will need to make your position clear. That means you need to make important choices about which side you will be on and how.”
“It’s a choice… .”
Rebekah looked at the table full of guests.
Customers laughing and chatting and sometimes wiping their mouths in a noble way.
The profile of Rebekah, who was looking at them, became quite chilly.
“You know what? The engagement with Orca Arclight has been terminated.”
“Is it because of this?”
“No, even if it wasn’t necessary, I would have broken off the engagement first. To live the rest of my life with someone who won’t even look at me. I hate that.”
“is it.”
“But, my father will also try to use me to hold on to another string. As long as I bear the name of de Winter, it will continue to repeat itself. I will give up my name.”
“Does that mean you are going to cut ties with your family?”
“Yes. It could be something like that. In the first place, there was no such thing as family ties. Even though he is my father, Carlot was a wicked man.”
Rebekah was a quick-tempered person.
It’s so fast it’s embarrassing to me.
But.
These are the people who are most successful in business.
“but.”
Of course, Rebekah seemed to have more to say.
“However, the fact that Nike Moke-Moke was the daughter of the Wild Rose is quite surprising to me. For some reason, it made it difficult for me.”
“… Well, that’s how it happened.”
“So what is Miss Moke-Moke doing now?”
Well.
I was curious too.
anyway.
“Take care for the time being and be well.”
I didn’t want to lose a restaurant that was a big part of my sales.
If Rebekah rebelled against me, saying, “You are my enemies, you are the enemies of the de Winter family!”
Things worked out better than I thought, so I feel relieved, but rather bewildered.
Rebekah said as I was about to leave the store.
“Victor, you are more affectionate than I thought. Do you even worry about me like this? What am I to you?”
“He is an important person.”
“… I wouldn’t have said it in that sense. If others hear it, they may misinterpret it. As a business partner? Equal partners.”
“yes.”
At my answer, Rebekah unfolded her fan.
The guy’s face is red somewhere.
“But you better be careful. If you think I will stay under you forever, you are mistaken. One day, I will be more successful and rise above you.”
“Yes, try.”
Both Rebekah and I were both busy, so we left the store without wasting any more time.
– Trading and trading.
ㅡ Gizzes, zizzes, zizzes.
The scorching sun was beating down, and the cicadas were at the level of barking because they couldn’t cry noisily.
It felt like summer.
Yes, my summer vacation has just begun.
* * *
next day.
I woke up early in the morning.
As I was going through my inventory and the amount I needed to sell, someone knocked on my door.
“Is it Nike?”
“yes.”
“I thought you would rest a little longer. Come in.”
I brought Nike into the club room.
Then Nike sat down on a nearby wooden box with a dull feeling, as if something had lost his soul.
-Hooong… !
Kyeong-Kyung climbed on Nike’s lap.
Nike didn’t respond.
-Hooong… ?

Just blankly staring into space.
It’s not normal.
I stretched out my hand and…
He pulled the pigtails that were bizarrely tied on both sides of Nike to the left and right.
“Hey… !”
Nike screaming.
Soon Nike glared at me and asked.
“Uh, what are you doing… !?”
“Are you out of your mind? He was like a crazy person.”
“Huh… .”
Nike sagged again.
Of course, I knew very well why Nike looked so distraught.
“If you are a forest keeper, you will be safe. I bet you.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. We will meet again.”
“but… . I’m no longer Nike Mokey Mokey… . I am no longer my father’s daughter. Can we meet again… .”
is it.
Nike seemed to be saddened by the breakup, as if he was disowned at the end.

Just don’t care
But for me, it was a good story.
“It is not your name or who your father is that determines who you are. It’s here.”
Shuk.
I pointed my hand at Nike’s chest.
Then Nike is startled.
“My breasts? You mean my heart decides who I am?”
“No, it is the heart. Nike, Nike Mokey Mokey or Wild Rose, you are the same Nike. Well, look at this. Here are two cups of slush. One tastes like grapes and the other tastes like oranges.”
Seruk.
I handed Nike two cups of slush.
“Take a drink.”
Nike hesitates at my words, then sucks the slush through a straw.
“… It tastes like real grapes.”
“The other side too.”

Jjureup,
“… It tastes like oranges.”
“Yes, both taste different. But in the end, nothing changes in the essence of slush. What matters is the big frame. Nike, are you Moke Moken? Are you Wildrose? no. It’s just Nike.”
Also, I didn’t have the talent for words.
There is a ‘topic’ I want to talk about, but it’s difficult to explain it.
Maybe that’s why Nike didn’t understand what I was saying.
Then puheh-laugh.
“I don’t know what you mean. I feel like I can touch you. Viktor, are you trying to cheer me on?”
“Is it like that?”
“Anyway, I got a little stronger… ! So, I guess I’ll have to decide what to do now. I will be the first to avenge myself!”
Nike ran to Pavabat somewhere.
I also followed Nike.
Because I felt like I was going to have an accident.
And my predictions were correct.
“Oops, what’s up all of a sudden!?”
“Naughty de Winter girl!”
Nike goes to a restaurant and tangles with Rebekah.
Grabbing Rebekah’s hair and starting to pull it, he pulls Nike’s hair or pinches Nike’s face, probably thinking that Rebekah can’t lose either.

Quadang.
A table topples over and two girls roll over on the red carpet.
“Miss Rebekah was just fighting like the kids in the neighborhood… .”
“Let’s all pay the admission fee!”
Restaurant guests collected their money.
I didn’t miss the chance and said it.
“Popcorn is 50,000 Renae. And for 100,000 René, I’ll let you watch from the front row.”
“It’s expensive!”
“Give it to me right now!”
Makes good money.
Of course, private quarrels between students are illegal.
“Now stop fighting.”
Having sold all the popcorn and seats, I decided to end their fight.
Even if I don’t stop it, Nike and Rebekah are already fighting each other and widening their distance. Rebekah’s face is bleeding from her nose.
“What the hell, all of a sudden!”
“De Winter’s girl!”
“… … .”
Squeak.
At Nike’s cry, Rebekah opened her slender eyes.
“I am no longer de Winter.”
“… Were you also disowned by your father?”
“You, too, I don’t know what the situation is. after, yes like. You said you were actually the Princess of the Wildrose. It’s something I can’t help but hate. I’ll give you one shot. Hit me.”
Rebekah stood up, toughly wiping the blood from her nose with the back of her hand.
Are you thinking of taking a cool hit?
