151 – Forgiveness is easier than permission
“…So that’s how it happened.”
When I explained everything I had to do to live, the hero was suspicious but believed me for now.
The foundation of that trust unexpectedly came from Thalia.
“Leave this! It’s going to Ian!”
“Stay still, sister.”
Seeing Talia like that, I had no choice but to admit it.
The sound of her chains resonated throughout her room whenever Talia, who was chained by her saintess, wriggled her body in the air.
– Knocked up.
“…I’m sorry I’m late.”
Reina, who had changed into her usual clothes, came into her room belatedly to discuss Talia’s condition.
-Kyum!
The ball bounced off her shoulder and landed right on top of my head. My jumping power has increased.
“Did you have fun?”
-Kyuwoo!
I was so excited that I ate something delicious and boasted to me.
That’s great.
“Polaris. Why did Thalia become like that?”
“For now, this seems to be the cause…”
A saintess who answers while looking at the potion I obtained after all sorts of humiliation.
She put her nose to the end of her bottle and sniffed her.
“It smells like strawberries.”
Is that all?
This time, as I tipped her bottle to taste her, she stopped her abruptly.
“Wait a minute!”
“Why, why is that, brother?”
When she suddenly spoke to me, the saintess opened her eyes wide as if she was surprised.
“Isn’t the saintess going to be like that after recklessly eating it…?”
I asked, pointing at Talia who was wriggling around in the air.
“Let this go~! I’m going to do this and that with Ian!”
“Are you saying I’m going to do something so shameless…?”
A saintess whose face has become contemplative and trembles.
“…That might be the case. So don’t act hastily, and watch the situation for now…”
“….”
“Saint…?”
The saintess, her ears burning, thought.
‘If I end up doing something like that, maybe it’s not my fault?’
While she was repenting, maybe she was interrupted, so she had an outrageous thought.
-Gulp.
She didn’t have time to say anything before she tipped the bottle and drank the contents.
“Why are you drinking that?!”
Still, in Talia’s case, thanks to her frail body, she managed to maintain her sanity, but she didn’t have the confidence to dare to endure it if the saintess came out like that.
Sorry Sonia.
Maybe I’ll grow up here?
Just when she felt sorry for Sonia for some reason, her saintess broke her silence and opened her mouth.
“It just tastes like strawberries…”
Is it because of my mood that I look sullen?
Anyway, one more person isn’t increasing here.
“So. When will Thalia be back to normal?”
A warrior who was watching what we were doing asked.
“Hey, could you gather for a moment?”
After gathering as requested by her saintess, she opened her mouth.
“Anyway, this drug doesn’t seem to have any effect.”
“Then why is Thalia doing that?”
“I think it’s probably a similar situation to falling into autosuggestion.”
“Autosuggestion?”
“Tell me more.”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on the saintess, and she continued her explanation.
“That’s why the sister fell into a state where she said, ‘Since you drank the potion, it’s natural for you to show a crush on the brother.'”
“It’s too much for a crush…”
The hero who said that looked at Talia.
“Let this go, Ian! Talia will give you lots of nice treats!”
“Is that an allusion…?”
“…Don’t worry, it will return to normal by the time you determine that the effect is no longer effective.”
Then Reina, who was still, asked as if she was curious.
“So. What is the reason for gathering and talking like this?”
“How do you think your sister will come out the moment she realizes that the potion has no effect?”
“That’s right…”
Reina, who was talking about her, had no choice but to shut her mouth.
“…It’s going to be very chaotic.”
Everyone nodded at Reina’s words.
At least it’s certain that my mansion will be blown up.
We gathered together with one heart and one mind and decided to bury what we heard and saw today. Even for the mentality of the party members.
“By the way.”
Huh?
“You mean you ended up going outside to avoid our eyes?”
As soon as I finished talking about Talia, she immediately shot me like a warrior.
‘How can I say this….’
In the process of persuading the hero, she had no choice but to confess that she had gone outside.
It’s difficult to monitor right now, so I was worried that an assistant would be added here, but surprisingly, the arrow of the hero didn’t point at me.
“Polaris. What are you going to do if you do that?”
“I’m sorry, hero…”
A warrior who blames the saintess who took her out rather than me who seduced her when she went out.
“So you two had a fun time out with him? Why did you keep it a secret from me! Why!”
Even Reina got angry at the strange part, saying that she didn’t even let me know.
I couldn’t stay still in the current situation.
“Hey, warrior.”
“What is it? Are you trying to cover Polaris?”
“I’m fine brother…”
“You be still.”
Everyone stopped asking me for my fault, but if you pretend you didn’t see this, you’re not a man.
I finally opened my mouth.
“I promised to go out for a drink with Arya, how could I not just do it once?”
It’s not my fault, but how can I put up with this?
“….”
“….”
“….”
As soon as I finished my words, a deep silence fell.
All three of them looked at me with a puzzled expression in common.
“I almost said…”
At that time, I tried to pick it up in a hurry because it seemed to upset the atmosphere.
“Yes.”
Contrary to expectations, permission fell from the warrior’s mouth.
Oh, like this? Who is this! Who said forgiveness is easier than permission….
“So you must have run away by lying to us and holding a contest that wasn’t even funny. You always did that.”
Huh?
“Just do whatever you want. I don’t care anymore. That’s what you want too.”
– Bang!
From noble mtl dot com
The warrior who had said everything like a quick-fire gun closed the door roughly and left.
The accident stopped at the reaction of a hero he had never seen before.
‘I’m not carelessly ignoring the experiences of married men who say that forgiveness is easier than permission….’
Why the hell?
It’s a reverse story. I decided to think about it from her point of view.
The first time they joined, they ran away.
You promised to keep your three promises, but then shut your mouth. She just ran away while holding the
Contest….
Looking at it like this, it was spectacle.
As expected, being a hero is not for everyone.
Anyway, when I realized that if I put those words into practice, I would be forgiven or something, and I felt that collective intelligence was needed now.
“Anyway, the hero seems to be very angry, so maybe this is good?”
I asked for help from the party members.
“Do it yourself.”
“I don’t know.”
It wasn’t as good as the hero, but they also left me and went outside with a cold spirit.
“Iaan~!”
Only Talia calls out to me and drags me out.
Still, I’m glad Kyudol has you. Are you on my side as much as you are?
-Kyum.
I’m going to die. What do you mean?
***
-Quaang!
The warrior entered her room and nervously shut the door.
“I was so worried while you were gone, but you said that there!”
While he disappeared without saying a word, the hero, who couldn’t sleep well, wondering if he had been involved in another accident, didn’t bother to ask about what had happened before, just because he had returned.
But it wasn’t enough that he went out secretly, so when I saw him openly say that he would go out in such a situation, I couldn’t stand it any longer.
“I can’t show myself like other people and I’m doing this alone…”
A warrior who was somewhat relieved after muttering like that for a long time.
Swipe.
It was only then that I looked at the closed door, worried that it might not be broken.
“It’s broken…”
I tried to adjust it, but I couldn’t stand her strength and the door frame was bent.
-Cheating….
You can open and close it with enough force.
Of course, it was possible because he was a warrior.
‘I don’t know. It’s my room anyway.’
Not wanting to think about anything else for today, she threw off her breastplate.
Sureuk.
The bandages have been removed and the only thing covering her body is crude black underwear.
– Plopped.
She literally threw her body onto her bed.
‘Is the saintess and Thalia really that good….’
It was a warrior who said he didn’t think about anything, but complaints rose up without his knowledge.
‘Do whatever you really want. If you want to drink with Aria, drink it, and I don’t care if it goes well with other girls. If you’re going to do this, go out to the party… ‘
The thought, which became more and more violent, stopped there.
‘… Don’t lose.’
“Ehh…”
Suddenly, I missed the director.
If she had a problem, her director always gave her the answer.
‘It’s been fine so far, but why are you here now….’
Even after leaving her journey, her worries were always with her.
‘I’ve been doing well by myself until now, but why….’
The hero soon realized the reason and was unable to say anything.
A being who held out his hand whenever he hesitated during his journey.
Because he was always there when my feet stopped.
One way or another, he was the problem.
“Stupid…”
A warrior with a blanket pulled over his head and muttering.
Having put down the weight of a warrior, she was just a girl who didn’t even know her heart.
She said she didn’t think about anything, but she thought of someone unconsciously.
***
The next day.
Now it’s time for the 6 of us to get together and have breakfast.
-Ungnyangnyang.
Except for Chloe, who inhaled the food at a steady rate as usual, they were quietly moving the tableware with each other.
“…What did you do again this time?”
Reading the uncomfortable air, Sonia put her egg yolk on her plate and asked in a suspicious tone.
“That’s…”
– Bang!
“It’s like what happened! I’m going to have a good meal!”
Talia, her face blushing, reacted to being stabbed by herself, and her saintess began to soothe her by her side.
“Don’t be angry, sister. That was not your will.”
Talia bowed her head at her saintess’ words.
‘It’s not like that at all….’
She was the one who woke up in the morning and kicked the blanket with her foot, but she was so sorry that she didn’t. Because it was an experience that allowed her to be a little honest.
Suddenly, I remembered what he showed me yesterday.
‘But it’s true that it grew because of me! It wasn’t just me who got sick!’
At that time, I thought it was because he had a heart to some extent.
“Poop…!”
“What did you just laugh about, you goblin?!”
I decided to pretend I didn’t know, but it just exploded and Rayna and Talia screamed at her.
It was a rowdy atmosphere, but I couldn’t join in.
“….”
I wish I could say something, but the hero was caught silently continuing his meal without any reaction.
“That warrior…”
I wanted to apologize for what happened yesterday, so I talked to him.
“I’ll wake up first.”
The hero got up from his seat and went outside.
‘I feel like I’m really pissed off. What should I do?’
Then, seeing my expression, Sonia said.
“I think it’s because of the hero.”
I nodded helplessly.
“What’s the matter? Tell me.”
“That’s…”
As I hesitated, she reached under her table and took her hand in mine.
“Don’t do it alone. If you don’t tell me, you won’t know.”
“Sonia….”
As expected, you are the only one who understands me!
I was moved by Sonia’s sweet and kind heart on the outside, and I told her what I had done yesterday.
“Are you insane?”
That’s how I lost one of my sides.
“I told you. If you just stay still, the surveillance won’t last long. But she can’t stand it. Does it make sense that she would say such a thing?”
“No, but the prince asked me to have a drink and I thought it would work…”
“No matter how much it is, did you have to say that at that moment? You can say it later when you have time!”
Sonia screaming at me.
The saintess and Reina quietly nodded.
If you know that, why would married men get scolded?
… The words filled my throat, but this time I didn’t say it out of my mouth.
“I have nothing to say. You’re not going to do that to me later, are you?”
She asks me with a disapproving expression somewhere.
“I can swear I’ll never do that to you.”
“…Really?”
Sonia looked at me with slightly leaning eyes.
“Of course it is. In the first place, such a thing is a concern between husband and wife…”
-Quaaa.
“aaagh! Hand! So-on!”
Right after he was messed up by Sonia due to a momentary mistake.
“Are you going to say that in the future or not?”
“I won’t…”
She was only released after he gave her a promise to get her physio done and never do it again.
“Anyway, I like all of you, but that mouth is a problem. Sometimes you’re cool, but other times you’re really childish.”
“….”
“…Was it that painful?”
Nodding.
Sonia rubbing my hands with her apologetic face after I showed her the truth.
“Anyway, you’re wrong this time, so talk to me. We won’t see each other again.”
“I’m not even going to say anything…”
“You should show sincerity.”
“Your last name?”
“That’s why. It’s something the hero might want.”
Anything a hero would want?
“If you just tell me, the emperor will somehow rescue you, but there’s no way there’s such a thing…”
As she was talking, something popped into her head.
“What’s wrong? Any ideas?”
She nodded at her question.
There was. What the warrior wants from me
