The Sub-Protagonist Is Retiring chapter 197

197 – 189.Belated Vacation-5

“What? While I couldn’t see you, your body became very thin.”

“There is a reason I can’t tell you.”

Renee was sitting near the mat I had laid out.

It seems that Rin has disturbed him before, so he decided to build a sandcastle in a place where water does not reach at all.

Is there any romance about the sand castle?

Renée showed more enthusiasm than ever.

“I’ll take a little break. If you have business with me, ask me to come back later.”

“Yes! All right!”

Without much thought, I closed my eyes under the parasol.

It was a scorching hot day, but the wind from the sea made the beach quite cool.

Now that my body is tired, I felt like I could sleep soundly enough that I wouldn’t even know if someone took it.

There is nothing sweeter than a good night’s sleep after a long time.

***

A night at a mountain cabin in the dark.

There was ‘me’ there.

As I lit a fire in the hearth, I was thinking about what to eat today.

In my hands are smoked ham and hard bread.

After confirming that there was nothing else to eat, ‘I’ sighed deeply and took out a portable knife.

Squeak. Spam. Spam.

I cut up the last few hams and put them on an iron plate over a bonfire.

It wasn’t long before the ham was sizzling, with the juices escaping from it.

Like ham, the chilled bread was quickly baked on an iron plate.

I made a simple sandwich by putting ham on bread and covering it again, going through a process that is difficult to even call cooking.

The moment I was about to put a simple and monotonous sandwich in my mouth.

The door burst open and a blizzard began to enter the cabin.

“Come here!”

The identity of the person who opened the hut was a silver-haired dragon girl with horns.

The girl had just burst through the door without knocking.

The brazier, which was lit at best, was extinguished by the snowstorm that raged inside.

It was normal for ‘my’ body to tremble as the temperature dropped rapidly, but for some reason it was warm.

To be precise, my heart was warm.

“West! Did you wait long? I’ve caught the prey!”

The girl walked up to her gun and came to ‘me’.

A girl who starts rubbing herself while leaning on me like a small animal.

With that action, ‘my’ hand was naturally placed gently on top of her head.

The girl was delighted with the act of stroking her, but she immediately sulked at the sandwich I made.

“…… Sorry, I wish I had some fresh vegetables too. I only eat meat because of me.”

‘I’ gave her back her reply saying that it was okay and not to mind her.

Then skillfully made another ham sandwich and handed it to the girl.

It was a shabby food to pass on to others, but the girl smiled with joy as she ate the delicious sandwich.

“Delicious! I think it tastes better when I eat with Seobang!”

She smiled and replied that ‘me’ was the same.

Although it was a shabby house and a shabby meal, ‘I’ was spending a sweet time with the silver-haired Yongin girl.

I wish this time would be a bit longer.

However, my wish did not come true.

“Ah….”

My vision went dark, and when I turned the lights on again, a new sight appeared.

This time, ‘I’ was not in the snow, but in a pit of fire.

My face was hot. Even without touching her, the thick scent of blood was spreading.

Blood from the torn forehead ran down his face and fell to the floor.

The bridge has already been burnt to ashes for a long time, and the breath has been blocked.

Why are you already trying to kill ‘me’ after all the good times?

It took a while to keep my mouth shut at the absurdity of her, until I saw a girl running towards me through the black smoke.

Her ashes have darkened her appearance, but that’s unmistakable.

She was the silver-haired dragon girl I saw earlier.

In her delight, ‘I’ tried to stretch out her arm towards her girl, but was stopped halfway through.

Don’t drag her into her now.

As those thoughts lingered in her head, ‘I’ built her magic circle.

With the magic of wind and pressure, I pushed the girl away from approaching ‘me’.

The girl who was thrown out was crying.

“West! No!!”

The girl cried out as if her throat was going to break.

She got up again and tried to come to me, but it was too late.

As the bright red magic circle under ‘me’ flickered, a column of hot fire began to rise.

My body, unable to withstand the heat, was gradually burning.

Ah, ‘I’ will die soon.

However, I had no regrets. She met and lived happily with the person she loved, and although she did not see it in person, she even bore the fruit of her love with the girl.

‘I’ left her last words to her girl.

“Take care of our ‘Rene’.”

And I also said this to myself.

***

“Ugh!”

Frightened to wake up from my dream, I jumped up and stood up.

Cold sweat was flowing all over his body and he was breathing heavily.

Pressing my face with the palm of my hand, I remembered the dream I had just seen.

‘What is that dream about?’

The scenes from my dreams running through my head.

Each scene made me question myself.

A mountain hut he has been to before, daily life with a familiar silver-haired girl, and a lively death.

Everything left a deep impression, but arguably, the feature that made me goosebumps the most was ‘me’.

The ‘I’ possessed in Bern’s body.

It was Yun Gun-woo.

“What am I doing there… ?”

“Bern-sama?! Are you okay?”

Because I woke up in a fright, it seems that I also surprised Renee.

It was a situation where she was completely out of her mind, but at that time, I calmly tried to apologize to her.

Renee and the girl she met in her dream strangely matched, and she frowned.

“Did I do anything wrong?!”

“Oh, no. It’s not like that, it was just because my head was spinning.”

I’m sorry Renee, but she couldn’t tell the truth.

Because I was in a state where I couldn’t understand any of the contents of the dream.

So I covered up the situation with plausible lies.

“Are you feeling unwell? Then let’s go straight to the infirmary!”

“It’s okay. It’s simply because I’m having nightmares.”

“A nightmare?”

“Yes….”

I don’t know if I can call the days I spent with the silver-haired girl a nightmare.

It’s a nightmare, however, considering the fact that it burns to death at the end.

I wanted to interpret the dream, but it was impossible because the content was so absurd.

I, Yun Gun-woo, come to another world and fall in love with a dragon girl who resembles Renée, and eventually burns to death.

Isn’t it ridiculous no matter how much you think about it?

At least, if it was Bern’s body, you would guess that it was a future poem.

However, in my dream, I was Yun Gun-woo, whom I had seen through the mirror for 20 years.

‘It’s a dream I don’t even understand.’

I shook my head and concluded that I had a dog dream.

Because the dream is vivid, it will remain in my memory for a while, but I should forget it as soon as possible.

“Sir! I heard the teacher’s screams. Are you okay?”

“It’s okay. I just had a nightmare while sleeping.”

“Is that so? Are you sick or…….”

“I’m really fine, so don’t worry about that. It makes me uncomfortable.”

“…… All right.”

Rene and Lynn were worried a lot, so they were masked.

Still, I was glad that there were people who would come running to me if anything happened.

Like a silver-haired girl…….

‘I decided to forget it, but what if I think about it again… ….”

I made the same mistake over and over and laughed bitterly.

“Teacher, are you going to sleep more?”

“No. My sleepiness is gone, so I can’t think of any better.”

“Then could you follow me for a moment? There is something I really want to show you.”

“Isn’t it an emergency?”

“It’s not like that, so don’t worry.”

“Then I’m glad.”

I jumped up from the mat.

Even though Renee, who stood up after shaking off the sand, naturally followed her, Lynn did not show any reaction.

It seems like I was talking while I was sleeping.

I was looking forward to what they were going to show.

“I’m curious, but can you give me a hint?”

“No big deal. To put it simply, we want to have a campfire.”

“Campfire while the sun is still up?”

“Didn’t Teacher not eat a single meal while we were playing?”

“You must be very hungry, so we set up a barbecue in advance!”

“Really?”

“You can look forward to it! I brought the finest meat from Yuran and lots of seafood from the local air!”

“Ohh!”

Of course, when it comes to vacation, you can’t leave out barbecue.

It feels a bit early, but I was excited at the thought of getting together and enjoying dinner together.

“We are preparing to catch the unholy demon and burn it together.”

“Uh… ?”

As soon as I had doubts, I arrived at the barbecue.

But for some reason, a large cross was placed inside the bonfire instead of piles of wood.

And a woman was dangling dangling from it.

She was a woman with white hair and red horns, so she looked strangely like Hades.

However, to be Hades, the appearance was very mature.

Her signature thick body was no longer there.

“That demon who happened to be walking on the beach said he would commit adultery with the teacher.”

“So I caught them all and tied them up!”

“My lord! Help me!”

“Your liver has come out of the boat to call you master even though you are a raw man.”

“And he even pretended to be Hades? Aren’t you offended?”

“Death Death Hades is indeed true! This is a new body, please trust me!”

The place I reached was not a barbecue, but an execution site.

“King! Panting!”

Wherever he went, Chaos came with seaweeds piled high.

It jumped up and clung to my back.

“Bern, Mr. Bern! Help!”

“The tube you gave me is growing like crazy!”

Above the sea in the distance, I could see Lily in the form of a tube that had grown to the size of an aircraft carrier.

Above it, Meryl and Sestia were wandering, not knowing what to do.

“Haa… !”

The days were not at all peaceful.

There was no eternal rest for me.
