42-3. Something that can break the will.
***
It was strange that Blanc persistently followed Fine even after the sparring was over.
If you’re a player aiming for the reverse harem route, you’ll only care about the other male characters. I don’t know why you’re doing that. Are you aiming for me?
I was worried about being followed, so I ran away in the crowd. I grabbed Fine’s hand and ran.
After a long drive, we finally arrived at the Grancia Empire Bakery.
Even though his hands are slippery with sweat, Fine holds my hand tightly as if it were precious.
“Yeah, I’m not around anymore. Licht.”
“Thank God….”
Unlike me, who is out of breath, Fine is fine. I thought he would be surprised by the sudden jump.
“Licht. Look at that.”
She tapped my shoulder and pointed to a piece of chocolate the size of a person. I was overwhelmed by the magnificent size like a huge door.
A scene that looks like a mid-autumn Valentine’s event. There is a sign that says special chocolate that is sold only today.
“It’s called special chocolate.”
“..That’s something to eat, right?”
Looking at how it looks, it looks like it could be used as cover. I knew Fine liked sweet things, but wouldn’t she rot her teeth if she ate something like that?
“Yeah, maybe?”
“….”
The description next to it reads, “Share it with your friends, lovers, and family!” Even when he sees the word lover, Fine doesn’t seem to have any reaction.
From Fine’s point of view now, I might be a close friend. Although it is a relationship with very special feelings enough to be called a boyfriend.
‘Come to think of it, back when she was a saint, she couldn’t even give Fine a piece of chocolate….’
Valentine’s event. In an event held for two weeks on February 14th, you could collect chocolates that were dropped while playing the game and give them to NPCs to get favorability and rewards.
The nameless saint always seemed to envy the characters receiving chocolates by her side. All she receives is candy, her stamina recovery item.
Candy, a recovery item, and chocolate, which are not for sale, were not combined, so I couldn’t even do a trick. This is the chocolate she wanted.
What is normal for others is not normal for us, Fine.
“Should I buy this? You want to eat it? I can hear the sound of spitting.”
“Oh, no..”
I took out the gold coin without hesitation. After grabbing the head, he received money from the imperial family and his pockets became better. There was also a justification for rescuing Empress Bellin.
“Because you won the practice sparring today. I will buy it for you.”
“Licht.. To me..?”
Fortunately, in Dalian, Fine beat Blanc. With this, there will be no students who are against wearing the Masterpiece.
From noble mtl dot com
“..You always think of me.”
Even if Blanc tries to alienate Fine by instigating it once more, there will be no fools to believe the words of her horribly broken counterpart. Whether you are a player or a member of the cult of warriors, you have a safety device.
“Oh, Mardol?”
We could feel the presence of people behind us, who were contemplating what flavor to choose for the chocolate. It’s a familiar voice.
“Hello, Junior Licht!”
“Nex senior..?”
A purple-haired man put a shoulder strap on me with a foxy smile. Beside her is a vampire nun with red eyes.
“Why did you and Mardol come to the bakery? Is it a date?”
“Ah, that…. There are some circumstances.”
Nex laughed out loud when she explained that she had run away from Blanc, and Chartines covered her mouth with a surprised expression.
“In short, I had a love escape.”
“Absolutely not.”
“No..”
Ugh, as expected Nex is difficult to deal with. A character who is good at deceiving others and seeing through their minds. Has the feud with Asha been resolved at least a little bit?
“Licht Junior. Are you okay with your body? Our blood…. How worried Mardol was.”
“It has improved a lot.”
I won’t tell you Fine’s real name because there are other customers around. In the end, I finished my order with slightly bitter dark chocolate and sat down.
If you make it too sweet, Fine could eat it all in one day. You should eat in moderation. Excessive sweetness harms the body.
“Nex senior, how are you and the householder these days?”
“Huh? Ah, our handsome head of household? Things have changed since I went to the North. Is your junior like that again?”
As I was talking face to face with Nex and Chartines, Fine was seated next to me before I knew it.
“You say you are sorry for what happened before…. I’m not sure if you’ll allow me to marry our Shar.”
“Did you have any other stories?”
“No. I told you to come back to the mansion, but… I feel comfortable being a prodigal son. Right? Char?”
You haven’t told Nex about his father yet. It seems that he did not mention the secret space of the study.
“I don’t think Nex, the diligent family owner, is bad either..”
The love level floating on the status window is 64%.
It would be difficult if we did not have a three-way meeting at the social gathering place. Chartines has a bad reputation because she is a vampire saint. She takes this and accepting her as her daughter-in-law is a risk.
‘It’s like Fine with me.’
She is the opposite of Phinegrancia, an unnamed saint. My reputation is not good this time.
The reputation of the warriors has plummeted because of the Brave Bridge.
It is said that my heroic story is being made into a play and being shown in theaters, but if I were to marry a princess who is a national treasure right now, there would definitely be noise.
There may be ministers or people who run rampant, thinking, ‘That guy might also fall into the devil later on.’ Because there are many people in this world who are deeply hurt by demon lords.
“Mardol, how are you and your junior Licht doing these days?”
“That, why do you ask that..?”
It was then. Chartines, who had made the calyx with her own hands, asked Finesse a question with a strange smile as if she knew everything.
“I feel like we’ve gotten a little closer. Mardol, are you two dating?”
“It’s because of my mood..”
“Oh, last time I cried to save Licht’s juniors for dozens of hours.. Eup.. Ugh!!”
Fine blocked Chartines’ mouth. She started hiccuping, embarrassing her. She ordered her strawberry drink for her.
“Tell me something else.. Us.”
Should we say that this is similar? It reminded me of someone who challenged the final boss for 16 hours to save a game character.
“Everyone, do you know about the Temple of Tardun?”
“Temple..? I know tardune…”
It was Fine who responded first. Come to think of it, Fine was a person related to the country of the earth. Because most of the Inrang people are from there.
“The place where the Inrang people had their coming-of-age ceremony in the past.”
“A coming-of-age ceremony..?”
“It is a real wolf, a place to be recognized.”
I didn’t know about this. Did you have a back setting? No matter how much I searched in the Library of Truth, I couldn’t find any information about the temple.
‘So Drake asked Locke to go get points.’
If your father-in-law recognizes you as a wolf, you might look good. Master hid the information, just like the last time in the North.
When she was a nameless saint, Fine must have forgotten everything out of ignorance, and she is now a member of the imperial family, so does she know this information?
“Licht, why is the temple in Tardun…?”
Fine stared at me with her strange eyes. After being integrated into the Empire, no one had to attend a coming-of-age ceremony at the temple.
“To complete the real demon slaughter as soon as possible… I think I need help from the temple.”
“Ah, that was it..”
A slightly regretful tone. Nothing good would happen if I was recognized as an honorary member. Why is that
“Go with me.”
Fine grabbed my sleeve collar and pulled it, she said. A gurgling voice.
“Mardol, you already have a coming-of-age ceremony, so you don’t have to go?”
“..You said before that you wouldn’t leave it, right? Licht.”
I was thinking of going with you anyway. Acts like a puppy waiting for its owner, probably getting lonely.
“Okay. I’m thinking of going with you anyway…. Mardol?!”
“Whoops, I’m glad…”
When I answer Fine, she buries her face in my chest and rubs it against her. It is true that wolves are dogs and animals. It hurts because my helmet was rubbed off.
“Brother Licht. It’s nice to see.”
“Now we can see Mardol’s old self..”
Looking at the affection between the two of us, Nex and Chartines smiled like people appreciating a beautiful scenery.
I wonder if this is how Nex felt when he intuited that I was proposing to him. Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet, so he was lucky that his blushing didn’t go unnoticed.
“Mardol, please stay away for a moment.. I can smell that sweat..”
“Whoa.. Is it okay..”
Before, smelling was like a ghost. Fine, who notices that she smells like another woman after just a few words with the wise man.
Actually, the future of being imprisoned was not an incident that occurred because I misunderstood that I had an affair.
Her I struggled with her and tried to push her away with her hand, but she couldn’t do it.
A clear difference in power. The golden eyes in the glass helmet are shining as they look up at me.
“Let’s continue like this.. Licht..”
It’s scary like a yandere. Could it be that you didn’t turn the switch on? It was like that in a dream I had a few days ago.
“Guest!! The chocolate packaging you ordered is finished!”
At that moment, a small voice echoed through the bakery. The voice caused Fine’s arms to loosen slightly. This is your chance. We have to run away before it goes any further.
“Cyclops size dark chocolate! Here it is!”
“Ah, thank you..”
I managed to get out of my seat and receive a giant chocolate. The red rose wrapping paper with [Valentine’s Day always today!] Is impressive.
The packaging makes it look bigger. If Fine eats this, won’t it roll on the floor? Even if I gained weight, I thought I would be cute, so a smile caught my lips without realizing it.
“Enjoy your meal! A guest wearing a black knight helmet!”
After completing the checkout, an employee with rabbit ears secretly handed over a piece of paper.
Inside that white piece of paper was written the phrase ‘You can eat it by melting it with your lover!’
“It was our boss’s ambitious project. Thank you for recognizing my worth!”
Looking at the memo, I thought of Fine, whose body was covered in chocolate.
