Inside An Adult Game As A Former Hero chapter 159

In conclusion, the act of running away was meaningless.

“The steak tastes good. Isn’t that right, Cloud?”

Because we had to meet again at dinner anyway. It’s hard to leave out because it’s a place the Count has invited. Presumably Frilite didn’t come after me with that in mind.

“Iknow, right. It looks ripe. That’s right, Cloud.”

Knock-knock-

Said Katarina, slicing the steak like a cutlet of some sort. His eyes are smiling, but his arms are bulging with tendons.

The reason she is so angry is simple.

It’s because I asked her to hide the fact that I’m in love with her.

I was attending dinner so I didn’t get a detailed explanation, so there’s going to be a fire inside.

Still, I’m glad you followed me.

If it wasn’t for that, this dining room would have been messed up with a fight.

‘Honestly, I don’t think Katarina will be able to beat Frillite.’

Both in terms of ability and in social position.

‘By the way, what should I do with frillite…’

Frilite is not a woman to be touched lightly. It’s not because of her position. Because I truly consider her a precious friend. I didn’t want to hurt her for anything.

As I was contemplating how to treat her, a sudden thought came to my mind and I burst into laughter.

‘There will come a day when I will worry about women’s problems.’

It was unimaginable in the previous world. I’ve been like a playboy for a while since I got Leia, but back then it was literally just fun.

‘I was very angry afterward because of that.’

What will she say when she sees this situation now…

…she

who is she

I was thinking of someone and thought like this

“… wood.”

Wait a minute.

How did I wake up in the first place

I was half crazy at the time.

“… Loud.”

Oh yeah.

There was a person who was nagging.

Even if I ignored it and treated it as cold food, he would come every day and nagging me.

I did…

who was that

it doesn’t come to mind

was it a man or a woman

Was it big or small?

Was your voice thick or thin?

I don’t know.

nothing comes to mind

why doesn’t it come to mind

You decided not to forget a single one.

You all decided to remember.

but what is this

What is it Mr-

“cloud!”

Frillite’s loud voice echoed in her ears. When I turned around, I saw Frilite putting her face to my ear.

“Are you okay?”

“Oh me”

“Your complexion is not good. Cold sweat is flowing. Is there any bad place? Is the injury from the fight with the undead less recovered?”

“Nope. are you okay. I just fell into a strange thought for a moment.”

Yeah, just a weird idea.

“It’s fine, don’t worry. What else were you talking about?”

Frillite answered without removing the worry from her expression.

“I was talking about the widow of the widowed count.”

“Ah… I’m sorry, Count.”

“it’s okay.”

The Count shook his head.

“Even though my wife is not with me now, the memories with her are etched in my heart. That’s enough for me. Two minutes over there.”

The Count pointed to Isabelle and Mars.

“Come on, Mars. Ahh.”

Isabelle took the sliced steak and brought it to Mars’ mouth. Mars looked around and ate the steak she had given him, as if he had no choice but to take it.

“tasty”

“yes…”

“Okay, then I’ll cut you more. Eat a lot.”

Isabelle continues to feed Mars with food.

The Count looked at the two of them with delight.

“It’s a beautiful sight to see. It reminds me of my ex-wife.”

There was also bitterness in his smile.

The meal continued like that, and when everyone finished eating, the Count got up first, and the dinner table was destroyed.

Everyone in my party went back to their respective rooms, but I couldn’t.

“cloud. Look at me for a second.”

Because Frilite caught it. This time, I had to do something to escape, so I followed her instructions. Frylite took me to her room.

When they were alone in the room, she spoke.

“cloud. It’s just a daytime thing…”

It’s finally here.

It was a time when I was about to come up with even a poor excuse.

Frilite sighed and said.

“I’m sorry. I must have been too excited.”

yes

what’s the situation

why is frillite apologizing to me

Even as I panicked, her words continued.

“That day, you said. By the time I get permission from my father, you will already be out of stock.”

“Yeah ah… it was.”

“As a result, you did not lie. If there is a mistake, it must have been me who reported it late.”

Oh well, this is…

“So, I will not dwell on the past. What matters is the present.”

she put her hand on my shoulder

“When we return to the Empire, let’s hold an engagement ceremony as soon as the social church is over.”

…

“It’s not too early for the engagement ceremony”

“It’s not coming. Nobility usually holds their engagement ceremony right after their coming-of-age ceremony. It’s just a special case for me, who hasn’t been engaged before.”

“Yeah, yes… But wouldn’t the sudden engagement ceremony be a burden on the family?”

“Don’t worry, I will write a letter to my father. And if the engagement ceremony is held as soon as the social church is over, the nobles who participated in the social church will attend the engagement ceremony. It’s good for the family.”

Frylite nodded her head.

Yeah, that’s right.

There’s no way out.

After talking to Frylite, Cloud walked down the hallway helplessly. In Cloud’s eyes, he saw Mars leaning against the railing and staring blankly at the sky.

‘Why is that again?’

In fact, I had no idea why he was trembling like that.

It must be because of Isabelle.

After all, ping chung doesn’t help in life.

Cloud licked his tongue and walked over to Mars’s side and leaned back against the railing as well.

“Because of Isabelle”

“Yeah, it’s your brother.”

Mars, startled by the sudden sound of a voice next to him, looked at Cloud’s face and calmed down.

“By the way, what are you talking about out of the blue, is it because of Isabelle?”

“That’s why you’re confused right now. It’s because of Isabelle. no”

“It’s a palace…”

“Right, no. Just say that.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Mars nodded.

“great. I’ll fix it.”

Cloud said so and started walking down the hallway in stride. Mars, who was overcome with some kind of anxiety, hurriedly followed him.

“What are you going to do?”

“Isabelle says it’s a problem for her to be annoying. You don’t seem to be able to shake it off because of your affection, so I’ll kick you out myself.”

“What are you talking about! When did I say I was bothered!”

Cloud stood tall.

“no”

“no!”

“No.”

Cloud shrugged. Seeing Mars narrowing his brow, he grinned.

“Then what’s the matter? Tell me.”

Mars hesitated for a moment, then sighed.

“I just wanted to be like this.”

“How am I supposed to understand that? Please tell me in detail.”

At Cloud’s urging, Mars leaned his back against the railing and confessed his concerns.

“Isabelle’s sudden change in behavior is a little embarrassing, but I don’t hate it. No, it’s better.”

“Didn’t I say last time that I don’t know if I still like Isabelle or not?”

“I became more honest with my feelings than then. I still like Isabelle.”

…is this how it ended up?

Cloud straightened his frown.

“Okay then. He likes you and he likes you too. Then it’s not over.”

“It’s not such a simple matter.”

Mars shook his head with a serious expression.

“brother. You know, I don’t know if I can be treated like this. I think it’s overkill for my topic.”

“What”

“That’s right. I’ve traveled, but I haven’t found a mate. I have gained great swordsmanship, but that’s not my swordsmanship. Ruin Krasio is a human swordsman who doesn’t even know a face. Even that, I was able to get it because my brother taught me how to dungeon. In the end I didn’t achieve anything. It’s no different from when I got help from hyung from number one to ten.”

Mars’s face was filled with a sense of wonder.

“But Isabelle is different. You are more beautiful than before, and you can even use magic. So that’s what I thought. I wonder if Isabelle is too much of a person for me.”

A complex problem with love and self-esteem.

Cloud summed it up in one word.

“It’s a pity.”

“…what are you talking about, again?”

It’s a joke when people talk about their worries seriously. When Mars made a shaky expression on his face, Cloud looked at Mars with a rather absurd look.

“I’m wrong, saying that you like Isabelle. Isabelle likes you too. But the reason you can’t date is because your condition seems to be lower than that of Isabelle. That is, you can’t date because I’m afraid that Isabelle will meet someone better than you and leave you.

“uh..”

It’s obviously sophistry, but somehow it’s convincing. As Mars’s head was about to get dizzy, he lost his point, and Cloud put his arm on his shoulder.

“I understand your feelings. I’ve been burnt by a woman twice, so I’m going to have pity.”

“Oh, no. So, it’s not a pity…”

A voice that gets smaller and smaller as if he’s not confident. Cloud completely ignored it and continued.

“But I do not agree with you. I’ve traveled, but I haven’t gotten a mate, but I’ve gained insight. Why can’t you use excellent swordsmanship? I want to create even your German swordsmanship.”

“…that’s not it.”

“okay. nope Mars, man. There are people in the world who learn good swordsmanship but can’t use it properly. On the other hand, you embody your skills and make good use of them, as well as the swordsmanship of the legendary knight.”

“…”

“Mars. Let me really ask for one. Please don’t ignore your talent, your potential. You are young and talented. Most of the time, you can do it if you put your mind to it. So don’t run away If you see a wall, hit it. Don’t even think that it might break, just hit it. Keep going until the wall comes down. You are good at that.”

“…yes. thank you.”

At Cloud’s sincere advice, Mars smiled bitterly and nodded.

Seeing that smile, Cloud realized that Mars’ troubles had not yet been resolved.

I wonder how many problems can be solved with just a few words.

Instead of giving him more advice, he patted Mars on the back a few times.

“Isabel, you have to do it yourself. ‘Cause you’re an adult now No matter what you choose, I will not interfere.”

With those words, Cloud left.

Mars looked at Cloud’s back as he left, and then turned his gaze back to the night sky.

A hard-working boy who swung his sword all day to become a knight.

He reached the level that he would have reached only after passing through the hurdles of death too easily.

And because of that, I was wandering.

late at night.

Except for the guards, at the time everyone in the castle, including the maid, fell asleep, a man was awake.

His name is Louis Robert.

The owner of the castle was weeping as he looked at the portrait of his bereaved wife.

It was said that he overcame sadness at dinner, but that was not true.

He spent every night in tears thinking of his dead wife.

It was the same today when a special guest called a warrior came.

no, it would have been

– Why are you crying?

If only the wife’s voice had not been heard from the portrait.
