32-1. The unmelting heart of the North.
***
The northern part is said to be frozen even to the sea due to the setting, and it is also famous for its cold and harsh climate.
“hahahahaha!! The wind blows coolly!”
That’s why I, Fine, and Master Drake boarded the magical icebreaker.
We cut through the waves and headed to the north, where there is an air raid by monsters.
‘I didn’t expect to go with Fine.’
I told him to go back to the imperial palace, but he said he would be more scolded if he went back because it was like running away secretly, so he put him on a boat.
“Licht, do you know about the North?”
“Actually, I don’t know.”
“I thought you knew everything.”
If the emperor knew this, I would be as good as dead.
Why are you so kind when it comes to burn ointment? The woman’s heart was not well understood.
“..There are things you don’t know. Yes, that’s all right.”
What happened? Her face lit up as she looked at me and grinned seductively. I’m so glad she’s wearing a helmet.
‘Should I have dated in real life?’
Pine still sticks close to me. Is it because she’s grateful for saving her life from the demon king or bringing her mother back?
“Licht, aren’t you cold?”
“It’s a bit cold. Am I sensitive to the cold?”
Even if I compared my near-death experience, there’s no way I’d fall in love just because I saved someone’s life.
“Whoops, it should be warm now.”
Suddenly, once again, the pure white wolf’s tail wrapped around one of my legs. It’s definitely warm. Soft and cozy cotton-like feeling.
‘Even if I die tomorrow, I’ll be a good merchant. Lee Soo-hyun.’
She covered the front of her helm, as the vulgar words almost came out of her mouth. Please don’t do this unconsciously.
“Pine, why do you keep wrapping your tail around my legs?”
“Huh? If you’re from the Inrang family, this happens often with your family.”
I don’t know such a setting. You, who became a nameless saint, weren’t like this either. I know the story that the Yinrang look a lot like wolves, but they never coiled their tails together.
This is definitely a lie. The princess looking at the distant mountains while avoiding my eyes.
“Please don’t do this again. If someone sees it, they misunderstand it.”
“..Okay. Licht.”
It was then. Fine hugged me. I couldn’t help but be taken aback by the sudden action. A soft, squeezing feeling.
“Then, can I do this?”
“..Just wind the tail.”
Overwhelming chastity was sending silent pressure on me, and I was dizzy from the breath coming nearby.
Where’s the guy who hugs you when he says he’s not getting what he wants?
It’s something I’ve felt before, but there’s something very clumsy about it. It’s like learning dating or love through a book.
‘I once said that this would make me a more valuable person.’
Damn it, how can I reassure Fine? She is the person I cherish and cherish the most. How to express this….
“Operation, success.”
The white, white-haired girl even smiled with her eyes and finally released her arms that were holding me. Seeing her tail tucked toward me again gave me a good idea.
“..Huh.”
“I told you not to do that all the time. Blood.”
I was also bothered by her tail wagging at the tip, and I didn’t want to let her take the lead any longer.
“Richt… The tail… The tail is sensitive….”
Isn’t hugging a nuisance no matter what anyone says? I have to convince Asha Aureus in the future, but it could be a hindrance.
“Pine, don’t try to hug me when there are people around.”
“Uh-uh… It’s okay when you’re not around..?”
Gently stroked her tail in the right direction. It’s amazing because it feels like a big cotton ball. Are all wolves this soft?
“Only when we are alone. Anything.”
“Okay. Now stop that Richt… Something is strange…”
It’s addictive, so Fine’s cheeks turned red from the constant petting. Oh, that was too bad He likes touching his ears, so I thought the tail would be the same.
“Sorry. I will stop.”
She lowered her head and softly tapped my chest with her hand. She must have made the wrong choice.
The white tail wrapped around her legs tightened even more, to the point where the blood stopped flowing.
“I am angry. Richt…”
“Pine, it hurts. Stop.”
“Licht is bad, bad. This flirt….”
Why am I a playboy in the first place?
Please don’t talk like a heroine who criticizes the male protagonist of harem movies. I’ve never seen any other woman besides you.
“Stop it because I was harsh. Please stop. Besides, I’m not a playboy.”
“Then a pervert, Licht is a pervert.”
The intensity of hitting me with my fist is getting stronger. Her ribs are ringing.
“Pine, please stop..”
Stop it, I’m really dying like this. There was a twinkle in Fine’s eyes, as if she had even cried a little.
“Where the hell did you learn something like this..!”
I was really wrong. It seems that the tail is a sensitive part for the Inrang tribe. By the time I made up my mind not to do it again,
“Oh, they are very cheap!”
“…”
Drake sighed when he saw me and Fine arguing. Then, Fine’s assault stopped immediately.
“..Hmm, Licht. You mustn’t touch another woman’s tail.”
She showed her anger by turning her head away. A cute pout while puffing up her cheeks. So you’re saying you can touch your tail later?
“Disciple, are you really a eunuch? Or do you have no dating experience?”
From noble mtl dot com
“..I have no dating experience.”
I had no choice but to tell the truth to Master’s question, which seemed frustrated while looking at me and knocking on my chest.
“For the Inrang tribe, the tail is…. No. Done. I shouldn’t talk!!”
At that moment, Fine’s tail waggled.
I want something. Looking to the side, with her head turned away from me, the wolf ears on top of her head prick up to hear more of the story.
‘..They don’t untie their tails.’
Isn’t it more serious than it looks? Even when I was upset, the behavior that restrained me was the same.
“Your karma is yours to deal with!! hahahaha!!”
I thought this would make her sick and let go of the tail coiled around her leg.
“Even if you need to go after my brother, don’t look for me!!”
“No, why are you screaming all of a sudden? You’re surprised by our blood.”
She covered Fine’s ears with her hands. Her heart almost jumped at the sound of a booming voice echoing through her deck.
“..Licht. It doesn’t matter.”
The platinum wolf looking at me again. Fortunately, the mood seems to have been relieved. In fact, I’m not even sure exactly what caused it.
“We..? To our Fine?! Don’t you know what a scary person your older brother really is?!”
“I know. You are the wolf king that even the demon kings of the cult of warriors fear.”
He couldn’t shut his mouth like a shocked man.
So, is our fine wine someone else’s fine? Unless she finds someone better than me, at least, or someone she likes.
‘Anyway, Emperor Locke isn’t hostile unless he’s a demon lord or a hero.’
This is the reason why I chose the nickname Pure Love Black Knight in the first place, and he is like a savior for my life.
No matter how scared Emperor Locke is, he will become the black knight who protects her.
“..Hi, my God!!”
“Why are you doing that? Master.”
Once he saw me and Fine close, he yelled at me in displeasure. Drake standing in front of me and pointing at my pitch.
“Didn’t you just grit your teeth and practice in order to protect some saintess?! That guy again….”
“It doesn’t matter now.”
Ugh, I had to cut him off quickly before he said anything strange. Fine would hate me if she knew that I was the nameless saintess.
‘I have to at least catch the most important magic hat.’
Besides, until she catches all the demon lords, it seems that the route she will fall into misfortune still remains. She defeated Head, the final boss of , But
“..Really?”
“Really. Blood.”
As long as the demon king of truth is not killed in advance, the future where Fine will die in the sequel Will not change.
Looking at the progress and penalties of the grand route floating in the status window, it was almost certain.
“It’s not… it’s a lie… Licht…”
I would go mad if I saw her die after talking casually about her love. I closed my eyes at the terrifying thought of imagining it.
‘Besides, thinking about it, it’s a death flag.’
If there is a really slim chance that Fine will like me, I will have to go through life and death several more times to deal with all the demon lords in the future.
“Pine, I don’t value anything more than you.”
“..This time for real. I will believe you.”
I don’t care if I die for Fine, but she could grieve over her loss. As with other works of game companies, be careful with flags.
‘..Ah, shall we check the affinity?’
Suddenly, I became curious about what the princess in front of me thought of me. The love level displayed on the status window is 2%.
I’ll have to cross-check this. Same system as 1 and 2.
Likeability, which is a measure of the probability of dating or closeness to a character.
Somehow, I also thought that the status window was something that could not be trusted,
‘I should at least check the favorability of the one I know.’
If the likeability rating that has been shown in previous works is high like Flag, wouldn’t it be possible to figure out why Fine is like this.
Let’s play a gag with Sophitia Cold Heart, the name of the Grand Duchess of the North.
She used to like this type of gag.
“Pine, maybe the Grand Princess of the North….”
“Don’t even talk about that barren b*tch.”
“…”
Oh my gosh, it seems like the bottom of the impression. Krrr. And even a small threat. Even the small fangs are exposed.
‘Do you know each other?’
When she was actually her nameless saint, nobody seemed to know her, her friends, or even her family. Now, the relationship between the princess and the Grand Duchess of the North.
It made more sense for Fine Grancia and Sophitia Coldheart to be acquainted. In the first place, both fathers belong to the Ten Girls.
“Do you know Miss Sophitia? Is it bloody?”
“..I know very well, so don’t do it. Licht.”
I’m scared. Is it our blood? The chilly tone made me feel as if a lump of lead had been stuffed into my heart. Maybe I said the wrong thing.
As expected, the northern part and the imperial family are not on good terms. Is it because they have the same power? Watching Fine, who even glared at me, I waved her hand.
“Sorry. I was just trying to make a joke because my friend told me about it.”
“..Are you a female friend?”
The Pillar Western guy is definitely a man. He looks like someone who is a game junkie. Turns out, he can’t even be a woman. He also listened to the voice when doing raids together,
“Same-s*x friends!!”
There was a time when he accurately identified his gender as male. He even said that if you are a Korean kid, you should like bears.
‘The one who called me a fetish after seeing that I liked the saintess.’
But the imperial family is stronger anyway. He always grumbled that no matter how much he flew and crawled in the North, he had to look out for Emperor Roch.
“And I don’t like bears. Rather, I like wolves.”
“Licht, I hate this about you.”
There was a chat before that the Grand Duchess of the North cares about the Imperial Family, so she gave me advice on getting rid of Lupus.
“Keep coming in, hook and loop.”
“..So are you. Blood.”
He gently stroked Fine’s hair to stop her pouting. Her ears fell back and gave way,
“Huh.. Richt..”
A white tail that turns like a motor. I’ve seen the common knowledge that wolves can’t be tamed in a documentary. Are the Inrangs different?
“These burns!! We arrived while you guys were playing with fire!!”
Then, Drake yelled at us.
The movement of the ship stopped at some point.
“…Licht, let’s go down carefully. The floor will be frozen.”
“Ah, thank you for your consideration. Blood.”
While talking to each other, we arrived in the northern part of the snowy area.
It’s hot in the empire, so it’s midsummer. The climate is completely different. She put on my handcuffs and started walking together.
just f*ck already
