81 – Beach where the Milky Way flows (1)
“Ael!”
As Ael fell to the floor, Einor came running as if he was flying.
“Are you okay?”
“Ouch, master… There’s an uproar…!”
“What’s the fuss? What on earth brought you here at this hour?”
“You know what! Tobi and Kira!”
Ael put her ear to your ear and she chattered a lot.
A smile spread across Aner’s face when she heard those words.
“Those idiots finally did it.”
“I came to inform the master!”
“That’s really good news. Hey Marco! Ryan!”
Ainor told the other group members that Kira and Toby finally confessed to each other.
Marco chuckled and Ryan clicked his tongue briefly.
“But Ael, your knees are bleeding.”
“Huh? It’s true.”
“Now that we’re here, let’s go to the medical unit and get treated.”
“Can I come in?”
“It’s okay. We provide free simple treatment to people living in Daham.”
Einor took Ael to the medical unit inside the security unit.
“Please take a look at my scraped knee here.”
“Yes, Captain Einer. Huh? What is it? It’s Ael?”
The medic sitting inside recognized Ael and greeted him.
“What’s going on here?”
“Huh? Ahahahaha…”
Ael, who knew that Kira and Toby’s affairs should not be revealed carelessly, laughed awkwardly.
Then the medic looked at Einer and Ael alternately as if he knew everything.
“You came because you wanted to see the owner?”
“Yes, well. That’s right. hehehe.”
Ael asked Inner while the medic was cleaning the wound on her knee.
“Master. But how do we prepare for our wedding?!”
Ael screamed.
This was because the medic, who was surprised to hear that it was her wedding, picked up her disinfectant cotton and pressed Ael’s wound with tweezers.
“Oh my! I’m sorry!”
“Ugh… It’s okay…”
“But what about a wedding? Are you two getting married?”
Einer smiled slightly embarrassed at the medic’s question.
When Ael saw that smile, she realized that she had made a mistake in her words, and she quickly came up with an excuse.
“No, that’s not it! It’s not our wedding, it’s someone else at home who, um, decided to help us…”
“Are you talking about that red-haired woman who works at the restaurant?”
“Eh? Ahhh, yes yes yes! hehehe….”
Ael laughed bitterly as he suddenly turned Lamia, a monster with no s*xual desire due to her as*xual reproduction, into his bride-to-be.
“Ha, I thought it was strange that such a beautiful person was alone, but she ended up getting married…”
She muttered to her medic with a dreamy blank expression as he was disinfecting.
Lamia’s racial characteristics are ‘beautiful’.
Because all lamias are beautiful, bad people go out to hunt them on purpose.
Because they are weak and can polymorph into humans, they are good for use as s*x slaves or sold for a high price to merchants.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
Einer tapped the medic who was mumbling stupidly with her toe.
“Ah, that’s right. It was being disinfected.”
The medic hurriedly disinfected Ael’s wound, applied her ointment, and attached her bandage to it.
“Thank you!”
“But when is he getting married? With whom?”
“Eh? Ah… That’s… A secret…”
“If a wedding invitation comes out, should I give it to you? I really want to see you in a wedding dress.”
“Eh… I understand…”
Ael left the medical unit as if running away.
“I’m in big trouble… I told such a big lie…”
“hahahaha. That’s right. I’m already scared of what Lamia will say if she finds out.”
Einer passed Ael’s front door and went to the dock to see her off.
Ael asked as they walked side by side on the noisy pier, which had been crowded since early morning.
“But master, what should we really do?”
“We? We should live together. We’ve already seen everything we can see of each other.”
“Right…? Then when…”
At that time, I suddenly heard the sound of something falling into the sea.
When I turned around, I saw several sailors entangled in a fist fight, as if there had been a fight.
“Ael. I’m sorry, but go alone.”
“Ah, yes! Be careful, master!”
“Yeah! See you later! Tell Kira and Toby that today is vacation!”
Ainor ran at a long pace, leaped high, and jumped into the middle of the fight.
“Get away from me now!”
“aaah!”
Several people were thrown off by Einor’s flying kick and rolled around on the floor.
“Hic! I’m scared!”

Ael quickly started running towards the house.
* * * * *
“Hmm. Really? Married?”
Minari, the owner of a side dish store in the Far East, smiled.
“I guess that’s what happened with my master in the end?”
“It just so happened… hehehe…”
“Congratulations, Ael. I hope you are happy.”
“The master hasn’t said anything clearly yet, so I don’t know when it will be done.”
“But just because we didn’t say anything, aren’t we already living like a couple?”
“I see…”
When you get married, I will cook the food for you. Of course, things that suit the tastes of people here.”
“hehehe?! Really?!”
“Of course. He’s our biggest customer. Just prepare the ingredients and we can do it ourselves.”
“hehehehe. Thank you so much….”
Originally, Minari’s side dish shop was not doing very well.
There are not that many people from the Far East living in Daham and customers with somewhat special tastes.
However, when Ael discovered this place and decided to make her restaurant menu with pork belly, sales exploded.
There is no place in Daegu that serves Far Eastern side dishes as well as this place, and that is why AEL chose this place as its main customer.
As the restaurant was full every day, Ael’s purchases were significant, so in just a few months, Buttercup earned more money than she had made in the past few years.
He’s such a grateful person, but helping him during a wedding is no small task.
“But did the master propose to me?”
“A marriage proposal? No?”
“Hmm. Really? Well, it doesn’t matter.”
“Do I really have to propose?”
“That’s not the case. And it’s not like the man has to do it first. Even if he didn’t do it, is that a problem that can be overlooked?”
“Ah, yes…”
After informing Buttercup of the items and quantities to be received by this afternoon, Ael was lost in her thoughts as she returned to her restaurant.
A marriage proposal?
I’ve never heard of her kitchen from her sisters.
Before marriage, a man kneels down and shows off something like a jeweled ring and asks for permission to marry him.
If you find someone to marry in the future, be sure to see how he proposes.
It is said that depending on how expensive the ring is and how romantic the place is, the difference between happiness in married life will be heaven and earth.
But when Ael heard that story, he thought it was a bit strange.
Marriage is an agreement between a man and a woman, so why does a man have to propose?
And the more expensive the jewelry ring, the happier you become?
If that’s the only way to be happy, you could just work hard and buy the ring yourself.
Then you can live happily without having to get married.
What Minari had just said resonated with Ael more than the advice of her kitchen sisters.
Ael’s conclusion was that the man did not have to do it first, and that it would not be a big problem even if he did not.
Still, it’s a marriage proposal. He doesn’t have to, but I don’t think it would be a bad idea to do it.
Hmm.
What gift should I give my master and what should I propose to him to please him?
I need to think about it.
* * * * *
When she entered the house, Lamia was alone in the kitchen on the first floor, preparing for business.
“Where have you been?”
“I went to see the owner for a bit and then stopped by Buttercup’s side dish shop.”
“To the master? Why?”
“I wanted to tell you about Tobi and Kira. By the way, where are they now? Have they gone?”
“It’s up there. We’re still talking. What’s wrong with your knees?”
“I fell while running.”
“I see. Since you have big breasts, it’s easy to lose your balance.”
Ael smiled shyly and took out a tray from the shelf.
I took some cool barley tea and some simple food with me and went up to this floor.
The voices of Kira and Toby could be heard through the slightly opened door of the master.
“Ah hmm. Ah hmm!”
Ael cleared his throat loudly outside her door.
“It’s Ael…! She’s only going in for a moment!”
As soon as I pushed the door open, Kira and Toby, who were sitting side by side on the bed, stood up awkwardly.
“Ael…”
“No, please sit down.”
Ael put down the tray on her desk and smiled at Kira and Toby.
“I thought you were thirsty and hungry.”
“Thank you… But we have to return to security now…”
“The owner said the two of you are on vacation today. So please continue talking. I’ll call you later at lunch.”
“Ah, yes…”
Ael quickly took a step back and left the room.
As soon as I closed the door, the sound of conversation came from inside again.
Until yesterday, both of you looked like you had been pulled out of the grave.
Now, my complexion has turned and I feel much better.
As expected, the plan of getting one person drunk, knocking out the other person, and then nailing the door was right.
Ael praised himself for coming up with such an ingenious plan.
Ael came down to the first floor and stood next to Lamia, who was picking out his lettuce one by one.
Ael, who was standing next to him and picking lettuce with him, suddenly asked.
“Lamia. What should I propose to my master?”
“Why are you asking me that? I don’t know anything like that.”
“Ah, I see…”
“Haven’t we decided to get married? Is it really necessary to propose?”
“But I really want to do it. My master is the benefactor of my life and even gives me money like this, so it’s too much of a thief to just take it without doing anything.”
“Hmm. That’s right.”
Lamia put down the lettuce in her hand for a moment and thought about it.
“Marriage proposal mantra. How about this?”
“What?”
“Please let me have ten children for my master.”
“Profit! That’s a bit…”
“Not really.”
As Lamia was thinking of another comment, she suddenly heard a sarcastic voice coming from somewhere.
“Damn it. Why are you making such a fuss over something that doesn’t matter?”
The cantavera by the window was stirring its flower buds.
“Eh? That’s what it says! Hey! You!”
At that moment, Ael remembered that she had been framed and screamed, looking around her kitchen counter for something to hit.
“That guy needs to get scolded!”
Ael picked up a lemon cut in half and immediately ran to Cantavera.
“Ah, I just thought of an amazing marriage proposal.”
Ael, who had just raised his hand holding a lemon, smiled happily.
“Huh? Really?”
“Listen carefully. Hmm.”
Cantavera cleared his throat and imitated Ael’s voice.
“I’m the owner. Get yourself a high-performance s*x processing tool that you can use for the rest of your life!”
“Ugh! It’s a crazy flower!”
Ael squeezed the lemon he was holding and sprayed Cantavera with its juice.
