204 – A Nail Named You #5
Steamed.
It’s natural that summer is hot, but now it’s over the limit.
“How is Victoria? Do you feel a little warmer now?”
“Ugh, ugh. Shady, should I say thank you… .”
“He said he had a fever because he caught a cold. Why did the magic stone air conditioner turn on like that? The air conditioner is on, but does it get warm when you put on clothes and cover it with a blanket? yes?”
“… … .”
“wait. I’ll cook you some porridge. Do you use some of the kitchen equipment in your room?”
Do the dorm rooms have kitchen facilities?
slightly surprised
Also, it was surprising that [Secretary – Shadi Frances] was such a friendly and kind person. It was like a cold and haughty city girl, but to me it was warm—what was it?
I guess.
So dude Shady, when the hell are you leaving?
“Whoa… .”
Victoria sighed.
It was a warm sigh.
yes it will
It’s because she’s in the position of hiding a large man under her blanket.
I was hiding under Victoria’s blanket.
In the meantime, Shady turned on the heater for Victorica, who complained that she had a cold, so of course the blanket was steamy.
Also, Victoria was originally a person with a lot of heat, so it was very hot.
It would be nice to stay warm in the middle of winter, but in the summer this is torture.
“Come on, Vicky. I’ve been cooking porridge Eat while warm.”
In the midst of this, Victoria, who has to eat warm porridge, must be a complete hell.
Maybe that’s why Victoria spoke gibberish.
“I think I’m better now, Shadi. I can go because I can be alone. You must be tired from today’s work too, so you should go and sleep.”
“Hey, is this the time when you’re having the hardest time and worrying about others? You weren’t able to take a day off today because of the crowds rushing in. I couldn’t even eat.”
“… That’s how it is.”
“Victor, I don’t know where or what he is doing in a situation like this.”
where are you and what are you doing
Right now, we’re lying together on Victoria’s futon and clinging to each other.
“Anyway, Viktor, I don’t like him. They make you go through all the hardships, but have accidents that don’t match what they look like.”
“That’s right. Does the real weight suddenly cause problems while holding all the weight? Do you know how much I struggle with that?”
weird.
The nail came out of my chest a long time ago, but why is my chest burning like this?
“Vicky, why don’t you just dump him and go see another guy? I also have fairly wide feet in the social world. There are many wonderful nobles, I will introduce you.”
“… … .”
“Wow, would you listen to me say this? I was completely sold on that sane guy. How did the lady of the duke, whom everyone looked up to, to such a commoner… .”
It was Shadi who made an exaggerated whining sound.
So when is he going?
I’m getting really hot too.
Sweat began to run down his forehead and back.
Still, I’m better. In the case of Victoria, it was completely wet.
You could tell how much he was sweating even through the jersey he was wearing.
Perhaps because of that, the scent of peaches that seemed to make my mind go crazy vibrated.
This scent that always hung over Victoria’s body wasn’t the smell of perfume, it was just the body scent.
what a peach man
that’s interesting.
“So, did you tell Viktor? That Victor’s father was alive in Claris Village.”
“That, that… !”
“Why are you so upset? I guess you haven’t said anything yet. Victoria, you always hesitated at the important place. If you have something you want to say, say it, and if you have something you want to have, definitely have it!”
“Uh, huh?”
“If I were you, I couldn’t stand it. The hateful Black Star’s Enio also grabbed his hair. That funny pink bomb is just… !”
“Okay, okay, now let’s go out. Because I really want to rest.”
“Yes, yes. Anyway, if you talk like this, the kid gets cranky. Because you keep getting frustrated, I get frustrated too. If you keep hesitating, I’ll tell Viktor instead of you?”
“That will never happen.”
“Huh, what? yes. What on earth do you like about that guy? The face is pretty neat though. If you’re that neat, this Ludens is full of garage.”
“… … .”
“Well, it’s probably not because of what happened. If that were the case, there’s no way you would have dumped the confession Mikhail made when you were a freshman back in the day. Mikhail, isn’t that man handsome?”
“… Let me know what I didn’t know.”
“what?”
“I think it makes me know about a world I don’t know. Let me know how cramped I was living in.”
“… … .”
“When I’m with Viktor, I feel like I can move into a world I don’t know. I’m like a boat. That guy is the wind. The wind that sends me to a new place.”
“Anyway… .”
* * *
It was only when the door slammed shut that I was able to escape as if I had been thrown out of the blanket. I thought the real body was boiled.
The first thing I did was turn off the heater and turn on the air conditioner to lower the room temperature again.
Shaaa-.
I was able to calm down only after I got out of the cold wind from the magic tool.
“I will live for a while.”
When I glanced away, Victoria was also cooling off after removing the blanket.
He didn’t take off his jersey, but he seemed to be recovering his strength just by pulling off the blanket and getting some cold air.
“Victor, I didn’t know you got hot again.”
“I didn’t know either.”
There was a moment of silence between us.
It seemed like there was something I had to say, but should I say I don’t know where or how to start?
“So, well, the story just now… Did you hear everything?”
Victoria asked quietly and cautiously, like a cat trying to steal a fish.
It would be too obvious to say that I didn’t hear what I just said here.
“heard.”
“The fact that your father is alive… ?”
“Yeah, I heard that too.”
Wasn’t Viktor’s father dead?
It was a pretty amazing story.
“I didn’t hide anything from you. It’s just that I couldn’t find the timing to tell you. So, don’t misunderstand.”
“Don’t get me wrong. But it is a little surprising.”
“What, what.”
“Avon, that the man was alive.”
“I just found out.”
“… … .”
so what do i do now
I felt as if I had lost my direction and was adrift in the open sea.
I don’t know what to do.
It was the same for Victoria as well. We either kept our mouths shut or just said “It’s hot” or “It’s hot”.
It’s like there’s a button you have to press.
The feeling of just spinning around it without pressing it.
If you keep going round and round like this, if you let go of your hand.
What happened today will be something that never happened.
It’s just going to fizzle out with unspoken rules.
However, it was surprisingly Victorian who broke that rule.
“… So, I haven’t heard the answer yet.”
“answer… ?”
“Now don’t pretend you don’t know. You asked me to make me an Avon when I’m no longer an Arclight. that answer. I didn’t hear.”
Seruk.
Victoria gets up from her seat.
The boy said something with a frown.
“Honestly you. You know everything, but you pretend not to know.”
“… I don’t know what you’re pretending not to know. As you know, I had a quirk. I’m not as sensitive as you think.”
“No, it’s a lie. It has nothing to do with quirks. It’s just that you intentionally turn away and turn your head away pretending not to know.”
Victoria came stride towards me.
Then, he pokes the area around your heart with his pointed index finger.
“Nicholas, the steel knight who was just like you. He also remembered his lover’s name. I don’t think you had that kind of heart. It will still be there.”
“… … .”
“That I like you. If you know me so well, there’s no way you wouldn’t know. Why are you deliberately pretending not to know?”
“… … .”
“I’d rather hate it if I didn’t like it. If it’s good, it’s good. Can you make it clear? So that people don’t get confused. what bothers me the most It’s you, not my father, or Orca, or anyone else.”
Victoria seemed a little excited.
“it’s you.”
It must be because of what happened earlier.
“Victorica, you are very excited right now.”
“shut up! Because you are like a nail in my life that it makes me hard I’d rather be sure either pushing me or pulling me. Rather curse me and hate me.”
fluff.
It was Victoriaka who finally sat down in front of me.

Just the shaking of your hair or chest is like a scene in a movie.
Victoria is like the wind that blows.
As if it is natural for the leaves to sway in the wind.

Just when this guy opens his mouth to yawn, or shakes his head lightly and lets his hair rustle, the eyes of the men around him are uncontrollably drawn.
I was just ignoring it.
“As you said.”
“… … .”
“As you said, there may be things I deliberately ignored.”
no.
Come to think of it now…
-From the very beginning.
My life has been a series of turns.
* * *
i’m young
I thought I had lived a life that was not enough.
But.
In fact, everything is a lie.
I just turned my head away from the lack I had.
I just comforted myself by saying, “I’m happy enough.”
After my mother died, my father suffered.
But he couldn’t be weak with a young child.
I couldn’t have a hard time leaving such a father.
Maybe that’s why I’ve become accustomed to ignoring it.
for example.
Whether it’s the cheering of friends’ parents who visit during the sports day.
It’s like a family photo taken with each other.
Or something like fruits and cute characters in a beautifully wrapped lunch box on a picnic day.
Or the cleanliness of a friend’s house I went to play, or the fruits and snacks that are on the table every day.
I was accustomed to turning away from a very young age because it was a world that had nothing to do with me.
However, if one day I become a father… It is also true that I hoped that I could give something like that to someone.
but getting older
After my father died, when I was completely alone.
I’ve come to realize that life isn’t as easy as I thought it would be.
-Brother, why do you deliberately pretend not to know? you know the truth
That’s it.
Because I didn’t have time to look away.
-I know you are in debt. Does it matter anyway?
If I dreamed even a little bit, if I was not careful, everything I had so far would collapse and everything I would do in the future would fail.
In that case, it is better not to know in the first place.
I thought it was better to not even try than to try and fail.
But.
It was my fault for not being clear.
Perhaps, in my heart, I longed for someone to hold my hand strongly and lead me to the light, not the debt… .
“Victoria.”
“… … .”
“I am in debt.”
“Know.”
“This is a debt of the heart. Who should I pay back to? Another debt that I don’t know how to pay off. It might swallow everything and ruin everything in the end.”
“… … .”
“I have no talent. can’t do two things at the same time Both will be halfway and will fail in the end. So I pretended not to know.”
What kind of expression will Victorian make?
will you despise me
━ Bad baby.
Maybe even hit me on the cheek like that time.
If that’s the case, I’d be happy to accommodate you.
Shuk.
Victoria rose from her seat.
The expression of the guy who looked complicated in many ways is now quite cool.
More than the wind blowing from a cooling fan.
“Bad baby.”
“… … .”
“Sick. fool.”
“… … .”
“Do you have any debts in your heart? don’t know how to pay it off? You can’t do two jobs until it’s paid off? Don’t make excuses! you’re just a coward You coward!”
match-.
It was Victoria who slapped me on the cheek.
It hurts more than I thought.
It must be because Victoria’s bare-handed attack power is stronger than mine.
match-.
Another blow comes through
“Ugh.”
This time, my eyes flashed.
I didn’t know how to hit two, so I couldn’t prepare.
mate, mate-.
clap clap-.
“No, wait… .”
How many do you hit?
I thought I would get hit at most, but I couldn’t come to my senses from Victorica’s slap on the face.
Someone might say what a shame it is for a grown man to be slapped on the cheek by a woman.
This world is a world where both men and women have equal abilities.
In such a world, getting slapped by Victoria, who can be called an S-class character, is rather strange that it doesn’t hurt.
“… Like a debt, I can pay it back!”
Shuk.
Victoria’s hand, which had been slapping her cheek, stopped.
I just reply by touching his burning face.
“You have no money. Your family has a lot of money.”
“No money! what? Debt of the heart? Do you not know how to pay it back?”
He now hugged me tightly.
It was a moment when I felt anew that the human body could be so fluffy.
“how!”
