83 – New clothes are good and people like old clothes (11)
“…”
“…”
I don’t want to mix things up for a long time, but what I just heard was so absurd that I couldn’t help but ask it again.
“What did you just say?”
“… We thought about it among ourselves, and I think the devil is a good girl.”
“…”
So.
“So what?”
“…We will get along well.”
Huh.
One. Really.
…
I can’t figure out where or how to pick it up.
It is a challenge to put mackerel sold on the market floor on a cutting board and to know the formula for calculating the volume of the cutting board.
f*ck for real.
…
Okay.
I don’t even want to mix things up anymore. I have no intention of guiding these years. All they have to do is live without knowing that they are idiots, garbage, and waste, and then let them die.
“Well, so. You’re not going to talk about origami cranes?”
I don’t know what kind of wind suddenly blew, but I do know that he said he would keep his mouth shut.
“Yes. If the demon king finds out, it will hurt…”
“Uh.”
Leaving behind the four who were trying to say more, I turned my back to go back to the Demon King.
-Gap
Then Nine held my hand.
“… Do, Dongha.”
“What else? Tell me about this.”
“… That’s it.”
And.
The words I didn’t want to hear, even as a joke, entered my ears.
“I’m really sorry.”
“I’m sorry.”
“I’m sorry. Mr. Dong-ha.”
…
“What?”
“…”
“You heard me wrong. What did you just say?”
“… Sorry. I said.”
…
Ah.
Am I apologizing?
Isn’t “Sorry” A word used to apologize?
…
That’s what I just said.
To whom?
…
Isn’t it?
You didn’t do that to me, did you?
You said sorry to the demon king, right?
Yes.
I guess so.
Anyway, even those b*tches.
How can you apologize to me?
How are humans?
You never apologized to me.
…
But even an apology to the demon king was disgusting.
“What difference does an apology make?”
“…”
“You stabbed him with a knife, burned the devil’s favorite furniture, threw an arrow into the devil’s one and only carpet, and stole the one and only game he had from him. And did you think I didn’t know that you insulted the demon king behind your back?”
“…”
“You guys wiped out all the demons on the way here. Now that you’ve found the stairs, you’ve killed everything you don’t even need to kill. Did you know that they are all friends of the Demon Lord?”
“…!”
I stopped pouring out my heart for a while.
I had no choice but to stop.
Because I am not without sin either.
“…”
… That’s it.
Let’s stop.
I was going to go again, but Nine gave me more strength.
“Let go.”
“… Dongha.”
… What is it?
Nine’s hands are shaking.
“You know. Actually.”
Stop it.
I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Just shut up.
“Dong-ha, I apologized to you. I’m really, really sorry. Of course to the Demon King.”
“… It wasn’t until Dong-ha was gone that I knew I liked Dong-ha…”
“Aren’t we originally a bit like that…”
Then, as if to drive a wedge into what he just said, all of them made sinful expressions.
…
I finally said it. I’m sorry.
…
It seems that the dark castle of the devil is dyed yellow. I felt something snapping in my head.
“… That’s Mr. Dongha. In the past…”
“Wow. You guys are real b*tches.”
The four people who were about to say something closed their mouths at my curse words. It seemed that the blood was gushing backwards. Although I hate them, it’s the first time I’ve hated them this much.
“Are you sorry for me and the devil? Are you really that kind of person? Are you f*cking kidding me right now?”
“…”
“And what? Are you feeling better now? Ah! Yes! The great warrior party members say that it’s better now, so that we, who have been harmed so far, just have to forgive everything and get along well while driving a dog crab, right? You bastards with this number?”
“… No, nothing like that…”
I quickly shook off Nine’s trembling hand.
“Leave this. Why do you get spoiled? Why don’t you think it’s because you’ve been treated badly by a young porter? If you’re close, don’t beat it up, right? As before.”
“…..”
“This is why I f*cking hate you guys. Isn’t life so comfortable? Even if you act like a dog, you suck it up, and if you roll around in the sh*t like an idiot, you just need to hit the porter for a while.
“……”
“Nine, Yuria, Dorothy, Rebecca. Everything I say from now on is the truth. Swear to god I wished for you to die every day. Seriously, not kidding. I wish it would disappear altogether. Why? Even now, it often comes out of my dreams and haunts me.”
“…..”
“Don’t make that face. Don’t use human words. You worms.”
Even talking about it, I feel sorry for myself. Do you raise your blood pressure to these assholes to enjoy riches and honors?
-Turbuck, turbuck
Nine shrinks as I approach. It was so similar to the attitude of a person seeking forgiveness that it made me vomit even more.
“Did you think it was good only after I was gone? Very damn…”
-Check
For the first time in my life, I felt like hitting a woman with her fist. I squeezed her fists so tight that they crushed her hands and stretched them behind her.
“…”
-Duk, Duk
Nine is shedding tears with her eyes closed. So was the rest.
…
I lowered my hand.
…
It’s definitely not that I feel sympathy for those b*tches or that my heart is relaxed. I’m just afraid that if I swing my fist like this, I’ll give those b*tches a reason to atone for their sins. I’m afraid it will be like hoping for a compensation psychology with a cheap means of violence.
“…”
-Turbuck, turbuck
This time nobody caught it.
…
I feel dirty.
-Turbuck, turbuck
I couldn’t go back to the Demon King’s room in this state. I went to the bathroom and washed with cold water. I turned on the water and stayed there. I waited until all the heat from my body was gone and the fever subsided. Because she has to treat her like she normally does.
I’ve been like this for a long, long time.
*
“Why? What are you talking about?”
Perhaps it was late, the demon king asked in a worried tone.
“… I didn’t say much. What was it that you had something to give me earlier?”
“Oh, yes.”
The demon king handed me a pair of socks.
What kind of socks are these? It’s definitely been cold these days. Wouldn’t it be better to weave them with wool for winter socks? And why is there only one pair?
“In addition, write what you want and put it in and hang it on the window. Lol. Christmas is still a long way off.”
“… Oh, Christmas stockings?”
“Yes, yes.”
… It’s like a demon king.
By the way.
“You know. Have you ever received a present?”
As if the demon king recalled the past, he voiced his lack of confidence.
“… Umm. Still… I guess it’s too high here.”
… It’s weird to have.
Of course there is no Santa, and there will be no fake substitute Santa to give presents to the Demon King.
“Yeah, but… It might come this year. I did a lot of good things compared to last year.”
…
The Demon King’s absurdly kind personality may have originated here.
“I hope Santa comes.”
“Yeah… Whoa…”
“Huh? Why are you sighing?”
“That’s… Santa might give me a gift only. So, my friend did a lot of naughty things, right? I always hit you and made you cry.”
“That’s right. I won’t do that anymore.”
I smiled while stroking the demon king’s dainty forehead.
“Kee hee hee. Is that all? You touch the creature every day. You touched me without permission these days? And yesterday, he stopped me from even doing the s*xy provocative poses I practiced all night, and threatened to cut off the relationship. You are really in trouble! What do you want to do?”
“I can’t. Santa, I’ll report to that man that you secretly put more carrots in other people’s bowls every morning.”
“…”
“…”
“Ummm, my friend knows too much. It must be gone.”
She made the shape of her pistol with her fingers, pretending to be a cowboy. It was like a real gun.
*
The next day. Morning.
As usual, as soon as I opened my eyes, I went out to see if the barrier was gone.
It’s definitely more transparent than the first. It seems to be on the verge of disappearing. I just hope that it will open soon and turn off together.
-Turbuck, turbuck
I walked into the kitchen.
I thought of going to work in the field after I finished eating alone.
I really didn’t want to sit at the table with them today.
-Wack
But as I rounded the corner of the kitchen, there was a bunch of things I didn’t want to see.
What is it? These are.
Aren’t Nine, Yuria, Dorothy, and Rebecca busy helping the Demon King in the kitchen to cook? YuRia, who found me, smiled broadly.
“Oh, Dongha. Did you wake up!”
“Dongha. Sit there Do you like scrambles?”
…
-Turbuck, turbuck
I approached the demon king. I made a face as human as possible. She only laughed at her. So that the demon king doesn’t misunderstand.
“Oh? What’s the matter? You look good today.”
“My friend. I’m not feeling well this morning, so I don’t think I’ll be able to eat breakfast. Can we go to work in the field first?”
“… Uh…”
I didn’t want to show off to the demon king. If that happened, the demon king who was preparing the dish with them might be offended.
“… Whoops. Okay. Are you okay?”
“Of course not. I’ll be sure to eat the dinner you made later.”
“Yes. If you don’t eat dinner, you’ll get scolded.”
“Okay.”
-Sseudam, sseudam
I stroked the demon king’s head and headed to the field.
-Turbuck, turbuck
When leaving the kitchen. The voices of the party members came from behind.
“Do, Mr. Dongha. Some of this…”
“There is also a dong-Geu-Rang-Ding. Dongha.”
Of course, I didn’t even pretend to hear.
*
The party members didn’t do anything obtrusive today.
I didn’t even threaten all day like yesterday.
“Demon King. Haven’t you watered here yet?”
He diligently helped with the field work.
*
“Rebecca please don’t pull the blanket too hard…”
“If you pull it too hard, you will be trampled on by rolling the blanket into the blanket.”
“Uh. Of course.”
-Wow!
-Kudangtattang!
“Ugh, you’re dead now… Oops! Rebecca runs away! Catch!”
“Get rid of it!”
I also cleaned up after the demon king.
*
“Hey, you tell me.”
“It is customary for an elven archer to yield.”
“Or Dorothy give it to me. You made it the hardest.”
“… Oh, isn’t it? Just give it to Rebecca.”
“I hate it. Dongha is scary.”
“If you give it to me, I’ll buy you a star candy later.”
-Jeobeok, Jeobeok
Rebecca made me something like a snack and asked me to eat it. I didn’t respond and walked away.
*
No matter what they said, I ignored it the whole time.
I only laughed when the demon king was watching.
*
After finishing the day, I am washing up.
I wanted to skip dinner, but I couldn’t because I had an appointment with the demon king in the morning. Even if not, if you don’t eat twice in a row, it’s obvious that the demon king will be worried.
‘… Let’s ignore it. Ignore.’
Don’t overindulge. Let’s stop caring You’ve been doing great so far.
-Jumping
-Kiik
When I opened the bathroom door, there was a letter underneath.
…
It’s Dorothy’s handwriting.
-Gugit
I crumpled it right away and threw it roughly anywhere.
*
“… What is it?”
“He said he wouldn’t eat because he had a bad stomach.”
…
As expected, there isn’t a single corner I like. Still, I was grateful that I didn’t have to show my face.
“… Huh? What is all that?”
I looked at the colorful socks hanging in the window and said. Are all demons A lot of greed in strange places.
“Ah, yes. Red, pink, yellow, and round socks. They don’t give gifts if you look at them, so you can’t look inside. I also promised that I would never see them.”
…
“For what purpose… Make something like that.”
“… Huh?”
“… No.”
It’s worth the money.
Don’t let trash like you interfere with the demon lord’s innocence.
“Let’s go eat.”
“Yes. Oh, by the way, I didn’t put the watering can and the hoe in the shed.”
“Let’s eat and go.”
“No. If you put off what you have to do today until tomorrow, the dog that chased the chicken will come after you.”
The Demon King headed to his rifle field.
…
‘…’
-Sueuk
What do they want?
Maybe there are a lot of curse words about the demon king. Things that would be shocking to the demon king to see later after they leave the tower.
-You can’t look inside, because they don’t give gifts.
…
What do you know? It’s like a present your kids want to receive.
– Tuk, Tuk
Let’s turn those socks that look brand new at first glance upside down. The folded paper falls out of the sock.
I opened them one by one.
…
It was Rebecca’s handwriting.
This is YuRia’s handwriting.
Dorothy’s handwriting.
It is the handwriting of Nine.
…
Put the paper in and put the socks back.
“… Until the end, it’s up to them.”
…
I hate it so much.
You guys.
-Drreuk
I got up from my seat.
I think I forgot something.
*
I looked for the discarded paper in the hallway. It was dark and quite difficult to find.
‘… Here it is.’
-Charak
When I opened the paper, there was a mixture of four handwritings.
*
Yesterday, we made Dong-ha angry because we didn’t speak properly. I’m sorry. We shouldn’t do that. As Dongha said. Apologizing doesn’t change anything.
I think I have no choice but to do it. I’m really, really sorry. It’s okay if you don’t accept it. Just know my heart
Thinking about it now, I actually liked Dong-ha but hated him too much. He always seemed like someone who was forcing himself to join us in order to get back somewhere. I think that’s why I’ve been bullying and harassing her even more. I regret it so much.
The barrier of the totem is weakening. It will probably be unlocked tomorrow. Dong Ha Mr. I hope you are doing well. Paper cranes… Well, since Dongha is so talented, what should he do?
Thank you so much, I liked it.＞
I’m sorry. Dongha. I hope you will forgive me for the ugliness I originally talked about my personality yesterday. The words had to come out in vain. I never meant to defend us like that, but…
Have you ever shot an arrow and accidentally hurt your finger? To think that I would make such a mistake… Anyway, I don’t know if you’ll believe it… At that time, my heart really sank.
No, I won’t lie. Isn’t that why you’re writing a letter? I was so afraid that you would ever fence me off or leave the party over it. Wasn’t he the one who always remained no matter how much we hated him?
Um, after using it, it becomes like an excuse. Dongha. I feel like you’re going to leave, and because you’re so nasty, did I bother you so much? I even had the stupid idea that if you were caught by the military police and sent to prison, I would visit you every day…
…
I’m sorry. Too. Really sorry. I don’t care if I look at it I have no writing skills. Actually, I’m writing it for the sixth time… But this one is the best. If I write it longer, I’ll only hate you more… I’ll shorten it. Don’t get sick and be well.＞
Dongha! Since you’re gone, adventures aren’t fun at all, right? I never knew when you were there! Even if I played with various people instead of you, it wasn’t fun. I think of you every day! I should have been good to you when you were there. I’m sorry I messed with you when you were sleeping in the past.
It’s okay if I come back every day, so why don’t you come? I’ll do really well this time! Please!＞
I’m sorry. My fault is bigger than other kids.
As the party leader, I should have stopped it. Now that I think about it, it’s full of regrets.
Yesterday I wished you would have beaten me. But it also seems cowardly because it seems like we’re making a cheap atonement.
I’m sorry. Dongha. Both to you and to the Demon King.
When you first came, I opened the front door, right? In fact, before opening that door, I was preparing to retire. I missed it all But you were the last one to come. Aren’t you curious?
At that time, I didn’t know that I would like people this much. In fact, to us, people were thought of as just a convenient tool. You’re right. Because they praised us all anyway… We continued to stick with the way we are now. From a very long time ago
But I guess that wasn’t the case for someone I really liked. Well, I knew I liked it only after you left.
How to treat someone you like. We know that now I knew it after seeing your very precious friend, the Demon King. Seeing the generosity and kindness she gives us, I think I know why she smiles so broadly at the demon lord, unlike when she is with us.
… Now, knowing that doesn’t change anything. I am not writing this letter to ask for forgiveness from you. Everyone will be the same Because I saw what the demon king did to us… And knew how bad we did to you.
We are leaving tomorrow. If we appear in your dreams again later and harass you, hit me right away. No. You can just run over and hit me right now.
I don’t want you to erase my memories. Because we’re so stupid… We might forget and come attack again.
… Actually, I really enjoyed my time here. Come to think of it, it’s been quite a while.
…
Baek Dong-ha. Sorry. I’m so sorry.＞
*
…
They.
…
Admit your mistakes.
Apologies to me.
…
Cowardly and spiteful b*tches.
Come now… Come now…
…
Of course, I have no intention of forgiving you. Even cold.
… Just.
I am.
Am I different from them?
Her
When she was outside, the Demon King thought she was evil and tried to kill her for her very personal reason, to return home. When I first came to this castle, if the party members had defeated the demon king, it would have been the end.
When the party members killed the demons, I didn’t help, I just stood by.
And it’s just that I’ve never done any damage to her demon lord, but I’ve hurt her as much as her b*tches.
…
I’m the same kid.
And.
I wanted to apologize to the demon king several times.
The me of the past who threw a blank check without hesitation to watch my petite body.
I regretted and felt sorry for things such as paper cranes and photography.
When the day comes when the devil knows everything.
Even if she won’t forgive me.
I would like to ask the devil for forgiveness.
Just like the girls now.
…
I remembered the four things I had been working on all day.
Because they are stupid. Because you’re much more stupid than me
Maybe I found out a little too late.
…
The day will come when I, too, will ask the devil for forgiveness.
So that I, too, on that day can apologize to the demon lord.
I also want to tie a knot now.
Because today is the last day.
…
Come hit me?
Yes, I understand. You followed today.
*
“Oh, why are you here?”
The Demon King, who was about to put the watering can on the shelf in the warehouse, saw me and asked.
“Do you want to play games all night?”
-Tung, Tung
I dropped the watering can the demon king was holding.
“…Bars, bars, games all night? What, what are you going to do!?”
“Let’s do View Marble. 3-On-3.”
