618 – 7.5 The season is autumn (7)
Neris is a monster of reason.
For a long time, he had never lost his composure, and he rarely lost his judgment when he was overcome by emotion. If there is only one weakness, is it that it is weak to pain?
Even that has gradually improved since Ian’s appearance. It was because torture resistance training, which had been abolished, was resumed. Of course, the intelligence officers used to cry.
It was inevitable.
Neris was inspired by the results of her torture resistance training. The pleasure of erasing one’s own weaknesses, which he had believed to be flawless, was inevitably greater for a person with strong self-esteem.
Also, surprisingly, the fact that the pain of the torture resistance training was not great was also a factor.
The history of the empire is long. Of course, the same was true of the intelligence service, and the intensity of the training systematically established over hundreds of years was indeed exquisite.
I really don’t want to die, but I want to die.
I really don’t want to beat him up, but I want to beat him up.
It was an exquisite tightrope. A series of intensity that literally makes you want to be able to endure it.
A famous sword is born after a long study. Neris, who had overcome his last weakness through training, no longer had to worry about losing his mind.
At least Neris thought so.
Until that day comes.
“The recent trend of academy students is strange.”
Tok, talk, talk.
Later that day, Neris was in a bad mood and kept tapping his fingers on the desk.
Why?
Because you don’t like the way the intelligence officers behave? Is it because I didn’t sleep last night? Or, just because I’m not feeling well today.
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t find an answer.
At the same time, the secret agent’s report continued.
“There has been an abnormally high number of extreme acts driven by emotions. Fortunately, the espionage members have prepared items for mental manipulation, but it’s not that big…….”
“Isn’t it big?”
“Yes?”
It was the secret service agent who was taken aback by Neris’ blunt questioning.
He blinked her eyes as if he didn’t know what the question meant. Only then did Neris cough, thinking, “Oops,” And blurted out her words.
“No, that’s fine… Keep watching.”
The intelligence officer tilted his head, but the boss’s order is an absolute law.
He soon cleared his doubts and decided to focus on his duty.
“Anyway, the atmosphere in the academy is turbulent regarding that. In particular, the love letters to Ian are lined up…….”
“A love letter?”
“Yes, a love letter.”
As soon as Neris heard that, he burst into laughter.
Who is Ian Perkus?
A rare psychopath who cuts off his fingers for disobeying orders, a cold-blooded man who doubts that a single drop of blood will ooze out even if he stabs his fingertips with a needle.
A love letter to him?
I didn’t know the subject, but I did it without knowing for a long time.
Of course, Ian wasn’t always a bad boss.
Sometimes he’s kind, the last time he saved my life, and I was a little excited at that time.
Just thinking about it made me feel very bad.
What are they?
If you knew about Ian, how much do you know? You could write a letter talking about love or romance. Neris was unbearably offended by the fact.
The woman’s body trembled.
The intelligence agent continued to report, slightly lowering his voice in an unusual atmosphere.
“Well, maybe the feelings of those who had a crush on Ian were maximized… ….”
“Stop it.”
A plain, short word.
The instructions could not have been clearer than this. Nevertheless, the intelligence agent who was posting the report was unable to answer for a moment.
I just put a question mark on my face.
That was before he even let out a dumbfounded sound.
Boom!
Neris’ hand hit the desk hard. To the extent that several papers piled on either side fluttered about.
“Either mobilize all the members of the branch to stop it. What do they say… Aren’t you crazy? Ian is busy with construction, so you don’t think he’ll have time to waste in a b*tch like that?”
I heard that you’ve been doing b*tches for a long time.
The intelligence agent managed to swallow the words that reached his throat. Neris didn’t seem to be in a good mood as much as that, and he might have to listen to a lot of nagging if he murmured.
Instead, he selected the most reasonable grounds and put them into his mouth.
“Me, branch manager? As you know, most of the branch’s personnel are currently busy attending to His Majesty the Emperor and his entourage. Moving that number of people based on personal feelings…….”
“…… Personal feelings?”
Oops.
The undercover agent realized that she had stepped on a mine. Anyone would have been able to do that if they were given that cold, sharp dark green gaze.
A drop of cold sweat formed on the man’s forehead. It was the first time in her life that she had seen Neris so angry.
“Are you saying that I am mobilizing the members of the branch based on personal feelings? What the hell are you feeling? What, are you saying I like Ian?”
“That, that’s not it… ….”
“Aha, am I jealous of those b*tches? That’s why I’m acting like a girl in love for the first time… Is this?”
“Oh, there was a misunderstanding.”
The espionage agent belatedly came to the rescue, but it was already too late.
Boom!
Neris hit her desk again and slowly raised her body. Her glowing eyes were so frightening that the intelligence officer backed away from her.
The sound of grinding teeth.
“Our direct supervisor is Ian. No, it’s not just him, Ian-nim is the continent’s divinity and the hero that everyone pays attention to! Can we leave the empire’s valuable talent unattended?”
“However, the possibility that Ian-nim will suffer significant damage due to the students’ romance or jealousy… ….”
“Hey.”
From noble mtl dot com
A way of speaking that doesn’t feel formal at all.
It meant that he was angry not just as the branch manager, but also as an individual named ‘Neris’. Of course, the intelligence officers were not unaware of this.
It would have been nice if you calmly agreed.
That bastard’s ‘loyalty’ kept getting caught. And the outcome of a well-spoken subject in front of a tyrant was usually obvious.
“Do you catch flying flies because they are dangerous?”
“Yeah, no, but… ….”
“Would you like to know? Shut up and get those bugs out.”
It was an opponent who couldn’t be persuaded anyway.
In the end, the espionage agent gave up on direct statements and bowed his head. Like that
Even after her man left, the woman couldn’t stop her anger and she had to grind her teeth.
“You dare, you dare, a slut… ….”
It was a matter of course, but looking back now.
It could be said that it was a woman mad in love itself.
Thump thump!
This was the inside story that her woman was beating her head against now.
‘Crazy, crazy, crazy!’
It is fatal.
A reaction that would make anyone think it was strange, anyone who knows the circumstances would have guessed it.
The fact that the woman is finally realizing her uncontrollable heart.
I wonder if he knew.
The fact that this is just the beginning.
After that day, Neris began to dream of Ian every day.
The types were diverse. There were sweet dreams and there were bitter dreams, but there was only one thing in common.
Ian stood at the center of his dream.
Neris had a hard time admitting that fact. What did she like about that cold-blooded person?
Although it showed some runaway on the day when the curse of jealousy fell, it was only a temporary phenomenon. That’s what she thought, at least until she met her man.
Then one day.
“Could you investigate the secret history of the Hastur family?”
Those were the words that her man, who had finally forgotten and tried to shake off, came to visit her.
A sudden and unprofitable proposal.
Neris tried to snort at her as usual.
“Ian, this issue has a very complex power relationship. If a weaker branch like us accidentally put their hands on it…….”
It was then.
The reason why Ian was depressed and looked sad.
Facing that gaze, Neris inadvertently spat out her curse words.
Crazy.
“Surely not?”
“That, uh… ….”
Of course not.
That was an appropriate answer, but the words didn’t come out of Neris’ lips before her man.
Good looking.
I felt like an idiot myself. Every time I looked at her man’s face, I had the illusion that her haze was getting drunk and she was losing her sanity.
She has defined herself as a monster of reason. She had sworn that she would never be swept away by emotion.
Before I knew it, the woman was talking with her tears stinging.
“Choi, I will try my best. Because it’s none other than Ian-sama’s request…….”
“Thank you! Senpai Neris!”
Then her man grabbed her woman’s hand and shook it.
That’s stupid.
Neris thought so, and she tried to calm me down, but there was no way she could stop the corner of her mouth from creeping up.
There is just one fact that I intuitively felt.
f*cked.
The monster of reason couldn’t win over her first love.
That was the story.
**
And so the night comes.
The girl from the distant future swallowed her dry saliva. She came only to see her first love, but she knew that the other person might not want it.
However, the tragedy did not last long.
The man who drank a lot of her alcohol suddenly turned around and the woman grabbed her by the end.
The girl asked.
“…… Hey.”
Holding back tears, questions that can never be denied.
“I’m tired…… ?”
It was a question that even the man who was forcibly summoned had no choice but to stop.
