Episode 581 Opening the Gate (2)
My head suddenly freezes.
Even when he had to open his eyes in the body of a strange barbarian and go through a coming-of-age ceremony without knowing his na, he can’t continue any accident as if his head, which worked fine, was pickled with alcohol.
The silence lasted for a while.
“….”
Misha looked up at with eyes filled with fear but as if expecting sothing.
“…I see.”
A aningless recitation that is neither positive nor negative nor questionable.
It had been a long ti since he had felt so pitiful for himself that all he had spit out after a long silence was ‘I guess so’.
However, thanks to that, the hardened head began to return as usual.
‘Yes’ and ‘No’.
First of all, what I have to do now is not to choose between the two.
If what Misha just said is true.
No, since the misaligned trust is in operation, it must be true, but…
that’s why there are parts that I don’t understand even more.
“then.”
“…huh?”
“Then… why did you draw the line with so much back then?”
It was a question that had been on my mind for a very long ti.
Why did Misha push away that day? Back then, there was room for interpretation that it was just because I didn’t like as a man, but…
Listening to it now, it doesn’t seem like that.
“Ah… that…”
Soon, the answer to the question ca through Misha’s slightly open mouth.
“That’s because I found out then that you’re an evil spirit… oh no… a player…”
“A player…?”
As I tilted my head, Misha asked cautiously.
“I heard you hate being called a demon… don’t you?”
Hmm, I’ve never thought about it, but it sounds much better on the player side than the demon.
But is this the story I heard from Lee Baek-ho?
If that’s the case, sohow I feel bad again.
“That… if you don’t like it… I won’t. I’m sorry…”
I went back to the main topic and continued the conversation.
“…Okay, what does that have to do with finding out I’m a demon? Did you think you couldn’t connect with the evil spirit apart from your liking…?”
I tried to suppress my emotions as much as I could, but did it leak out?
Misha, who heard , scread in fright.
“It’s not like that!”
It was to the extent that the forr appearance ca out of how embarrassed I was.
Misha, who raised her voice for a second, continued talking while avoiding her gaze, perhaps ashad of her appearance.
“It’s just… it was hard to watch… that you’re weak because of …”
“That needs a bit more explanation.”
When asked for more details, Misha explained the situation in a sowhat confused voice.
To sum it up, it was a simple story.
“So you thought it was because of you that you pretended to be doing ‘duties’, even changing appearances with Charon, and that you did it because you thought those actions weren’t helping ? Maybe soday you’ll get your identity revealed?”
“Eh…”
Misha lowered her head like an erring student while looking at .
“But maybe… did I misunderstand…?”
How should I answer this?
Strictly speaking, the reason why he changed his face with Charon that day was because of GM. It was necessary to create an alibi to avoid suspicion of evil spirits.
But…
‘I’m not saying it’s wrong.’
I have never done my ‘duty’ in the Holy Land. The first reason was that I felt uncomfortable with that as a modern person, and the second was Mischa.
I felt like I was committing a big sin, so I did that.
“It wasn’t a misunderstanding… I’m glad…”
Misha sighed in relief as if she had heard the answer through my expression. When I checked the trust that was suddenly broken, I didn’t have much ti anymore.
Now I want to know how aningful this is….
Even if it may seem a little cowardly, I wanted to take this opportunity to shake off all my doubts.
“So is that the end?”
“huh…?”
“Maybe… I thought there might be more reasons for pushing away…”
As soon as I looked at him with a blurred expression, Misha showed a look of bewildernt.
yes there is sothing more
When I noticed that he should hurry up and tell , Misha eventually opened her mouth with a blushing face.
“That… you know…”
“…”
“Because I can’t even have children…”
My head went blank for an instant.
Even if an ogre hit it with a wooden stick, it didn’t seem like it would get a bigger impact than this.
“kid…?”
“Oh don’t get wrong! It’s not that I can’t give birth to a mother, it’s just that the child I gave birth to isn’t a barbarian…”
I understood what it ant with my head.
It’s about the racial characteristics of the barbarians.
Only barbarian won can give birth to barbarians.
But I understood the context of the words, but I still did not understand.
“What does it matter if my child is a barbarian or not?”
Misha flinched when I said it in a tone that was astounding.
“uh…? Doesn’t it matter?”
That’s natural.
I’m not even a real barbarian.
Whether my child is a barbarian or an enemy, I will give him all my love.
However, Misha did not easily believe my words.
“Lies… All n don’t care about that…”
Well, it might be a natural thought for Misha, who was born and raised in this worldview.
but.
“The world I lived in was different.”
“But… aren’t you also a noble now…?
“stop.”
I’m done with this topic at this point.
It was awkward and sowhat embarrassing to talk about children already.
“Stop talking about this.”
“Ah… uh… that’s right? Yes, it’s not like you still like …”
“Exactly, before you answer.”
“…then? What is your answer… What?”
“First of all, before answering this.”
I checked the remaining ti one more ti and said.
“Is there sothing you’re still hiding from ?”
Misha answered without hesitation in a clear voice.
“doesn’t exist.”
yeah that’s really all
To the point of laughing at for not believing that there was sothing to be hidden.
Click.
Soon, the second hand of misaligned trust reached its end and the light faded.
“Then… now… can you answer ?”
For so reason, it was difficult to make eye contact.
Misha was looking at like nothing in the world was more important than my answer.
‘I have to answer…’
The misplaced trust has already been extinguished.
Even if it was working, it wouldn’t have ant much to .
“My answer is…”
I honestly confessed my true feelings.
***
It’s like being enchanted.
It is also probably a very vicious curse magic.
[Bjorn Yandel. too… I like you.]
[Bjorn Yandel. too… I like you.]
[Bjorn Yandel. too… I like you.]
No matter how many tis I pour cold water on my head and bang my head against the wall while wearing an iron helt, that voice keeps ringing in my ears.
Oh, and what Bjorn said at the end.
[…That’s right.]
It wasn’t positive.
It wasn’t even a denial.
However, Erwen felt a deep sense of relief in that voice. If what he felt was right, Bjorn was relieved at that mont.
Mischa Karlstein in response to that ungrateful woman.
“……”
What happened to the two of them?
Also, what did ‘that’ an?
For Erwen now, even thinking about Amman, it was an unknown part.
As soon as Bjorn’s voice was heard in the room, she ran away as if she were running away.
“……”
Why was that?
Why did I have to run away without listening?
She regretted it belatedly, but even if she went back to that mont, it was unclear whether she would do anything else.
Because I was afraid even at this mont.
Because the mont I heard the truth, it seed that sothing terrible and irreversible would happen.
“Erwen Fornacci di Tercia.”
So she didn’t go to Bjorn right away and ask. And after thinking and delusion alone for a long ti, I headed for this place as if I was running away.
“How long are you going to be like that?”
Alia Lane Wales.
A room of a woman who was a raider from Noark, but has a connection with Bjorn and is living a new life under the na of Emily Raines.
“If you have any concerns, tell right away. If you’re willing to listen, I’ll do it.”
“……it’s okay.”
Erwen finally backed off, and Alia didn’t hold her back, just telling her to co back if she felt like talking.
However, Erwen had no intention of coming here again.
I ca here by accident because I was out of my mind for a while.
“…”
Erwen went back to his room and suffered alone. And finally ca to a conclusion.
It can’t be.
It was unbelievable that Bjorn would be on such a date with that Jeok Myo woman.
What is Cancer himself less than that woman?
After that conclusion, I felt much more comfortable and was able to leave the room soon.
But…
“Uh…?”
When she ca down to the first floor, what she saw was a man and a woman sitting at a table and having a lively conversation.
“Ah… don’t laugh! Isn’t that what you asked to do? It’s been a while since I made this, so I might make a mistake… I didn’t have the materials because it was a labyrinth…
“Don’t worry. Because it’s delicious enough.”
The woman seed to have made the man sothing like food to rember. I stopped on the stairs and watched the scene blankly, when I suddenly t the woman’s eyes.
“Ah Erwen….”
As our eyes t, the woman, who had an awkward expression for a mont, began to put food on her plate.
“Do you want to eat before dinner? That… I make a lot of it and leave it behind…”
For so reason, that image reminded of old mories.
“ah! If it’s because of that iron helt, take it to your room and—”
“I do not need.”
Erwen cut off his words coldly and climbed the stairs again. Resisting the urge to throw the plate was good enough.
clap.
Soon after, Erwen climbed the stairs and opened Alia’s door and went inside. Alia had a questioning face when she returned from leaving earlier, but that wasn’t the point now.
“Alia Laneways.”
Erwen spoke the real na of a woman he didn’t usually call.
The ti when I left Bjorn and learned by my sister’s side.
The ti when a Jeok Miao woman treated herself like a guest as if she had beco a hostess.
“…I need help.”
I couldn’t go back to that ti.
***
After Erwen climbed the stairs again and disappeared, Misha looked at with a worried face.
“I… will it be okay…?”
“Don’t worry about Erwen, I’ll tell you well. And… well done.”
“…huh?”
“I ant to give you food. Even knowing that I hate you, it wouldn’t have been easy.”
“Oh, that… it’s nothing. Because we can’t stay like this forever… We’ll have to stay together…”
Misha scratches the awkward table with a sullen face. Even that appearance seed proud to .
It’s been a while since I told you not to go out of your way and get along well with the other mbers of the clan, but I was already trying to keep that word.
Well, apart from that, it got a little awkward.
“….”
“..”
Silence far from natural but not uncomfortable. In it, I rembered my last conversation with Misha.
Thinking back on it, I felt a bit pathetic, but my answer at the ti was ‘I don’t know’.
[You don’t know…? What does that an?]
It’s definitely not sothing I dislike.
Remnants of the emotions he harbored at that ti still remain.
But it’s literally just leftovers.
[Because a lot of ti has passed since then…]
From that day on, I tried countless tis to shake off my feelings for Misha, and I actually succeeded.
I don’t know what will happen later, but the feelings I have right now are closer to my colleagues than to n and won.
Alia Erwen Einar Raven…
Any one of the four would have suffered the sa hardship and acted similarly in Mischa’s situation.
Anyway, that’s not what’s important.
[Ha ha ha… Then I can’t help it…]
After hearing my honest story, Misha cowered as if she was hurt, but ended the situation like an adult.
[But… are friends okay?]
[Huh?]
[Isn’t it? Even back then… we started as friends…]
[Ah uh uh…]
By the way, at that ti I answered with a stupid sound, ‘Isn’t that right?’
It was a pitiful scene that made want to throw sothing out of my hand even thinking about it again.
But what can I do?
It’s already past.
“Have you eaten? Shall I bring you more?”
It was when I emptied all the food on my plate in silence.
“Mr. Yandel, are you on the first floor? I was still looking for it.”
Versil appears from the front door as if she had been out since morning and brings the news.
“I got a call from Count St. Red. It seems that the tombstone research is finally over. They told to co over there.”
“The research is over… Do you know what happened?”
“I don’t know, but I think I failed.”
“I see… Well, if you go and listen, you’ll understand. Then co.”
“Ugh… have a good trip.”
As soon as I got up from my seat, Misha greeted , and Versil tilted her head while watching this.
“You two…”
“Do you have sothing to say?”
“…no. nothing.”
I laughed at Versil’s words.
there is nothing
“Can I talk to you for a minute?”
“I will.”
It’s obvious what you want to say when you co back.
There will be worries about Misha, who has a feeling of being a traitor, and there will be thoughts of naturally sharing what happened in the community yesterday.
‘I think I can say then that I don’t have to worry anymore…’
Afterwards, as I headed towards the mansion with the dinsional stele, the village chief was waiting for on the first floor.
“Here you are.”
“Greetings are over, say whatever you want to say.”
When pressed to get to the point quickly, the village chief inford them that the 10-day study of the dinsional stele had failed, and that they had therefore decided to leave the village today.
“Just today…?”
“I was just in the mood to do it, but I completely failed, so I can’t waste more ti.”
well that’s it
In the first place, I didn’t expect that I would be resting this long.
“So I wanted to hear from you before I left. I have no intention of intervening in your exploration. Where do you want us to go next?”
I must have rested enough to rest unintentionally.
It was ti to go exploring again.
