183 – Rest (7)
“Master. Don’t worry too much. Tyria is a strong person.”
After finishing the conversation with Tyria, Kayla was worried as she saw me lost in thought.
While Erina was away for a while to take her bath.
I told Kayla her story about Tyria and Nye.
Likewise, Kayla’s expression was not very good.
“Kayla. What do you think.”
“I don’t know either. However, for Tyria’s sake, please do not allow me to face the Spirit King…”
“That’s impossible.”
You are preventing me from fighting the Spirit King. It was no different from breaking the promise to Tyria.
Even if I forcibly stopped her, there was no way Tyria would stay still.
If I were not careful, I could have incurred her resentment towards her.
But we can’t tell Tyria the whole truth about her.
I also found myself in a difficult position.
How will Tyria react when she confronts the Spirit King later?
In the end, it was unclear how the relationship between the two would end.
‘Even if I intervene, it won’t be of any use.’
Reconciliation is impossible for two people who have already become enemies.
Honestly, I don’t know how to solve this.
“…I think it would be best to rest comfortably first.”
Kayla was right.
Even if I thought about it right now, nothing would change and I couldn’t find a way out.
Just doing her best to keep Tyria out of danger.
And I hope she doesn’t make a choice she’ll regret.
Even if she regretted it, I had to do my part to help her not fall apart.
“And recently, I had a conversation with Yeriel.”
Then Kayla looked surprised for a moment, and then her face subtly stiffened.
“Can you hear what the goddess said?”
“There wasn’t much to say this time. “I’m just telling you to be careful.”
Is there something uncomfortable? My complexion wasn’t that good.
However, it seemed like she was trying to hide her expression so as not to show it.
In the past and now, she couldn’t bear to lie.
“Is there anything that’s bothering you?”
When she asked Kayla directly, she immediately shook her head.
After a short silence, she confessed to herself.
“Master, did the goddess say something strange?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well… Suddenly giving the goddess a name or calling her in a friendly way is a bit…”
Only then could I clearly understand Kayla’s words.
She was suspicious of Yeriel.
And Kayla’s intuition was half right.
Yeri El has already confessed to me and conveyed her sincerity.
And I postponed her answer until I was face to face with her.
But she did not tell Kayla that fact.
She knew how much she loved me and was obsessed with me.
And because she was a little reluctant to reveal Yeriel’s true feelings to others.
But Kayla noticed her vaguely and she asked directly.
She had no choice but to tell him everything that happened with Yeriel.
“Actually, Yeriel confessed to me.”
“Yes… ?”
There was silence for a moment, and Kayla was unable to open her mouth with an embarrassed expression.
He just holds my arm tightly and tightens his strength.
When I grabbed her arm and stopped her, she was startled and fell away from me.
It seems that she didn’t even know that she was using her strength.
“I’m holding off on answering for now.”
“Didn’t you refuse…?” ?”
“Yes. “I couldn’t bear it.”
Even though she felt sorry for Yeriel, who was imprisoned alone in heaven, she could not refuse.
However, Kayla seems to have taken the meaning a little differently.
Suddenly, Kayla hugged my waist and pressed her lips to me.
Put your lips on everything from my neck to my cheek and ears.
She finally reached my mouth and even raised her teeth to gently bite her lip.
“Kayla, stop.”
“…”
“I did not accept the confession.”
“But I didn’t refuse either…”
A voice full of sorrow. A sad expression, as if tears would fall at any moment.
I thought she was a little different from before, but in the end, is Kayla’s nature similar to Erina?
She is always cool-headed and unwavering, but why does she become weak when it comes to her affection?
Whenever something like this happened to her, she would turn into a child.
“I adore you, my lord.”
“I know too.”
“But I know that you have someone else in your heart besides me.”

Maybe she doesn’t want to put Erina’s name out of her mouth?
He was so angry at that fact that his expression even showed his resentment.
In some ways, the person who has suffered the most is Kayla.
She was always by my side and gave me generous advice.
In addition, she endured Erina’s persecution and took care of her other colleagues.
Because he endured all of this and never complained to me.
No matter what she complained about, I had no choice but to accept it.
“Is it possible that I alone is not enough? “Am I not trustworthy?”
“No. “Absolutely not.”
“I will even accept your precious people. But if even the goddess accepts it…”
“…”
“I feel like my heart is breaking…”
How could I not know what Kayla thinks of me?
But unfortunately, there were too many women around me that I had to protect.
And Yeriel was one of them.
She tried to lure me into this world and trick me, but I couldn’t get rid of her.
She couldn’t pretend not to know her sincerity.
In the end, my indecisiveness was the problem.
And from the perspective of Kayla, who is watching, it will be frustrating and lamentable.
“If you don’t mind, I’d like to ask you a question.”
“…”
“Is my heart impure? “Are you doing this a disservice to your lord?”
If I severely kicked her out, she might never say something like this again.
Just like before, she will quietly follow me and remain a loyal companion, and later become a lover.
But it wasn’t that she didn’t understand her jealousy.
“Kayla. “Not at all.”
“…”
“I’m sorry. “It’s because of me.”
Then Kayla was startled and quickly shook her head.
I wonder if he didn’t expect me to apologize.
He grabbed my collar with a trembling voice and a puzzled expression.
“No. I was wrong… !”
It was even pathetic to hear her rambling and apologizing for her mistakes.
She had nothing wrong, only me.
But perhaps she truly did not want to admit that fact.
Kayla stubbornly shook her head in denial.
“I’m sorry. “I made a mistake…”
“No. You’re right.”
No matter how much Kayla claimed to be my servant.
She could not define her jealousy as an impure heart.
On the contrary, she even heard her gratitude.
Instead, she trusted me and didn’t doubt her own heart.
“I like Erina and you too.”
“…Yes.”
“But I don’t know Yeriel yet. “This is sincere.”
She had never met her in person until now.
After she rescued Yeri El, she planned to deliver the answer in person.
When that time comes, won’t my heart also harden?
“I understand…”
Fortunately, Kayla also decided to respect my decision.
However, if we move on like this, it is clear that we will only be left with an uncomfortable feeling.
She decided to do her best to hug Kayla.
“Kayla. “Thank you very much.”
“…Then can I get a kiss?”
When I kissed her as she had hoped, her face quickly turned red.
After that, her skinship continued until Erina returned.
***
Meanwhile, there were green eyes watching Seohyun’s room.
In fact, after talking to Seohyun about Nie a little while ago, Tyria was distraught.
Could it be that she ended up bearing the burden of her heart on Seohyun?
She just went to see Seohyun to talk one more time.
But she ended up witnessing Kayla and Seohyun kissing.
Her body froze as her eyes were fixed on her through the gap in the door.
“Ugh…”
The sight of a man and a woman kissing in bed.
It was a stimulating sight for Tyria, who had never experienced it before.
But it didn’t take that long.
While focusing all of her attention inside her room, Tyria did not let down her guard.
A few days ago, Tyria did not forget the slap she received from Erina.
The fear that if she gets discovered like last time, she won’t be able to escape safely.
Because of this, Tyria’s senses were more sensitive than usual.
And then about ten minutes passed.
“… !?”
I heard the bathroom door open on the first floor.
At that moment, Seohyun and Kayla were also moving away from each other and adjusting their clothes.
Tyria went back to her own room and closed her door.
She turned off the light and lay down in bed as if nothing had happened.
Immediately, people passed through the hallway and it became quiet again.
She could be sure that no one noticed her own crime.
“Ha… “
Tyria, with her blanket pulled over her head, could not contain her excitement.
Seohyun hugs and kisses Kayla.
If only she had been there herself and not Kayla.
As the delusions continued to build up in her mind.
A prickling feeling filled her heart as she felt her first sense of immorality.
‘What on earth are you doing…’
A sudden feeling of self-destruction,
But even though she knew it was wrong, she couldn’t stop doing it.
She had a premonition that she would not be able to stop doing this in the future.
Tyria was alone, swallowing her complicated thoughts.
