(EP.156) Love #1
156 – Fairy Love #1
We went to a quiet cafe near the Platinum dormitory and chatted.
Stella seemed to have something to say to me, and I also had something to say with her, so it’s a good time.
“Tae-kun, you and I are close. Aren’t you going to appoint me as a supreme commander?”
Professor Stella seemed to take it for granted that he would go to the battlefield for the Queen’s duel.
At the same time, he is secretly showing off his friendship with me, but when I think about it, I wondered if I and her had built up close enough to hear such words.
Thoughts are completely egocentric.
Stella Belhawk was such a person.
People who know that the world stops when they close their eyes.
A person who has a strong conception that the world should do something for them rather than the concept that they should do something for the world.
As a young girl and long-lived elf of a high family, she has been well-received by others for over 100 years, so it is only natural for such self-centered thinking to develop.

I turned my gaze away from the letters that came to mind and looked at Stella Belhawk. She talked about why she should be the queen’s fighter.
“It’s an unprecedented case of being attacked by the queen. And it’s a duel trial in that case. It’s sure to get a lot of attention. There will be a lot of investors. It would be very effective if there was only one billboard in the arena.”
“Yes.”
“If you fight and win in such a big event, you will receive honor and glory. I regained the glory of the Belhawk family, and I also strengthened my position within the family and escaped from excommunication.”
Again, this elf was right to take advantage of the terrible situation that the hunter party he had summoned might attack the queen and take responsibility for it.
I really liked the attitude of turning a crisis into an opportunity. I didn’t like the attitude of forcing me to say, “So, let me choose!”
“But, is there any reason why I have to choose the professor as Daejeon?”
I ask bluntly, like a bee stings. Then Stella raised her thin purple eyebrows to one side as if she had heard a wonderful story.
“You, the last time you opened up my secrets to Draco Young-ae. I’m trying to put an end to this broken trust. You give me a chance to be kind.”
Rather, Stella spoke with an attitude that she should be grateful for giving me a chance to help her. Even self-centered thinking is not the level of a master at this level.
But there is no Mir or Draco today.
I mean, I don’t need to go out on purpose to make Mirna feel guilty.
“If you look at the fault in the first place, isn’t it wrong that the professor broke into my bedroom arbitrarily? In fact, I don’t think the word trust could have been brought out from there.”
“… … .”
Stella kept her mouth shut. Then he says something as if he wants to counterattack.
“Tae-kun, it’s different from back then. Is it because Mirna is not here?”
“I do not know. Anyway, if you want to become a warrior, you will have to show your sincerity to me.”
“What, are you asking me to kneel in front of you now?”
“I do not know.”
“… … .”
With that, my conversation with Stella was briefly ended.
* * *
As the conversation calms down, we sip our teacups together. Stella Belhawk glanced around and was annoyed.
“Where are these guys, why don’t they come like this? Did you go to make it yourself?”
Then I saw someone running in the distance. It was a girl with red hair in two braids. The ears that stick out between them are pointed like a fairy, but not like an elf.
“professor… !”
To put it bluntly, it resembles the racial outward appearance of a nymph who is said to be the eternal friend of girls. The star-shaped tail waving behind its hips was another thing from a nymph.
“professor… ! Here’s the cake… ! It’s never too late for me, tartar, to try the cake first or hide it… !”
The guy was an imp tartar. Tartar was a star-tailed imp who had plotted evil to take over Marmar’s building a while ago.
I heard that he was hired as Professor Stella’s assistant, but looking at it this way, it seems that he is really working as an assistant.
A chocolate cake was placed on the plate served by the tartar, and the end of the cake was unnaturally devoured.
Tartar must have eaten it.
Stella Belhawk frowned at him.
“Who told you to get your hands dirty? I mean, this is a limited-edition cake that I ordered for Tae-oh. Go ahead and buy a new one!”
At the elf’s shouting, a small imp tartar with about a head trembled. And then speaks in a crawling voice.
“Hey, this was the last cake… . And I was very hungry… . Yesterday and today, I couldn’t even eat a meal because I worked all night long… ! A vicious professor is to serve meals as promised… !”
It seems that Imp Tartar was being abused in many ways under the vicious elf professor Stella. I expected it at first glance, but looking at it like this, I feel a little sassy and pitiful.
Tartar This guy was originally a goblin who tried to do bad things to Marmar.
It can be said that he is being punished for that sin now, but seeing him suffer like this naturally reminds him of the same imp, Marmar, and I have to say that he has compassion.
“Are you going to get a little crazy?”
Relentless Stella grabbed the ear of Tartar, who had touched the food at will.
Then Tartar struggled with his claws in the air, unable to overcome Stella, who was stronger and taller than him.
“Hey… ! Hey, this is impophobic behavior… ! My short imp’s ears are stretching like kalp… !”
“Kanp? what did you say now What, Kanp? Don’t you know that’s an elf derogatory statement? 300 coins per hour reduction from now on!”
“Ah, I was wrong… ! I’m never going to say kanp again… !”
“You said it again!”
I have no mind at all.
To end this tumultuous situation, I mumble-coughed. Then, Professor Stella, who was harassing Tartar as if in anger, puts her hand away.
“Oh my gosh, I showed you something I couldn’t see, Tae-oh. This is a limited edition cake, and it’s really delicious. You’re a half-elf, so you won’t like sweets.”
Stella Belhawk swiping a cake with a bit of tartar on the top and handed it out to me.
And my eyes were dizzy at the decadent charm that attracted people’s attention as I laughed and laughed. However, what catches my attention even more is the cafe floor, not Stella’s bra top.
“Hey… .”
My eyes turned to Tartar, crouching on the floor, pulling out a hand mirror and looking into his ear.
“I don’t know if my ears are stretching out or not… . Imp ears as short and nice as laurel leaves are stretched out like the long ears of canps… .”
Tartar touched his red, swollen ears, and tears were dripping down his cheeks.
When I saw him, I felt very pitiful for some reason.
I don’t know if it’s pity for half-elves and their relatives, or if Angmar’s blood cherishes his minions, the Imps.
In the end, I had no choice but to hand the piece of cake in front of me to him.
“Tartare, you eat this.”
“Ah… ! Is it really okay… ?”
Then Tartar was overjoyed and took the cake from me. It was as if I wanted to take it quickly before I change my mind.
Stella sighed as she finally went over there and started eating the cake in a hurry.
“You’re pretending to be pitiful on purpose, Tae-oh-kun. You are too soft to deal with the imps.”
“Is that so?”
“okay. Imps play with people’s minds cleverly. It’s good enough to be treated a little harshly. Tweety-.”
As Stella whistled and whistled, a giant blue eagle that flew from somewhere handed something to Stella’s palm and disappeared again.
it is porridge
“I’m sorry, can I smoke for a moment? It won’t smell. It is not harmful to the body.”
“Well then.”
Because smoking is allowed in cafes in this world.
just-.
Stella sparked a spark by snapping her finger, and then puts the bamboo shoots in her mouth and spit out smoke. I was bored even watching it quietly, so I asked Stella.
“You seem to know a lot about Imps.”
“Tae-kun, don’t you know what my major is?”
“Weren’t you majoring in animal health?”
“It’s a minor. My major was fairy science. So I know a lot about imps and nymphs and elves and little fairies.”
That’s right.
A person who had just looked like an idiot who had just been an idiot looked a little different when he talked about his major.
Stella Belhawk’s eyes are fixed on the imp tartare who is eating the cake haphazardly in the corner over there.
Tartar felt Stella’s gaze and covered the cake plate.
“Hey, this is mine… ! It is a legitimate and legitimate property of Tartar entrusted by Comrade Tao… !”
Then, he turned his back on us and continued eating, just like a stray cat, who was not good at receiving food from humans, secretly eating the food he had managed to find.
wow wow.
“It’s the first time I’ve eaten something so delicious… ! Even the wealthy Imp Marmar must have never tasted something so delicious… !”
I’m sorry.
In fact, in this world, nymphs are treated like pet cats, while imps are ostracized like wild feral cats.
Relief foundations and various legal systems for the nymphs are over-equipped, but there are no foundations or facilities for the nymphs.
If someone insists, “We need to help the homeless Imps!”, others will say, “How harm can Imps do? If you want to help, raise them at your own home!”

It’s a metaphor I was thinking of, but it’s great.
As I was thinking about it, I suddenly became curious about the guys called Imps. If you are a professor of fairy science, do you know about Imps?
“Imps are said to be descended from nymphs. Is that real?”
“okay. In fact, the nymphs and the imps both deny each other.”
“Then why did Solomon create a being called an imp?”
“Solomon… .”
Stella Belhawk’s expression suddenly darkened. Suddenly, I remembered that she might have seen the demon king Solomon in person.
Stella Belhawk is 132 years old.
Since the Demon King was active about 50 years ago, the timing is right. But Stella Belhawk shook her head, wiping the long pipe into the ashtray.
“I don’t know much about Solomon either. At that time, I was just playing in the mansion. Tae-oh-kun, wouldn’t you already know it well?”
