Gambling, which was not gambling, was quite successful.

Thanks to Ymir leaving the room, I and Baek Sul-hee sang the national anthem from verse 1 to 4 in succession, and Baek Sul-hee didn’t say anything more.

I just lie in my bed, bury my face in my shoulder, and watch a late-night movie together.

“For some reason, I stopped talking…”

Baek Seol-hee started off by saying that I called her Seol-hee.

“Shall we talk to each other in the future?”

“What a new surprise.”

I buried my face in Baek Seol-hee’s head and lightly shook my head from side to side.

“If you say something like that now, maybe I’ll be a little offended?”

“We’ve always treated each other with respect, but if we suddenly start talking to each other, it’s awkward.”

“It’s awkward, but you’re doing well right now. Am I the only one who felt comfortable talking about it just now?”

“No….”

Baek Seol-hee placed her hand on my chest.

White fingers traced my solar plexus up and down, and Baek Seol-hee looked at me intently and smiled.

“I was comfortable too.”

“Then that’s it.”

“…….”

“Ordinary person Do Ji-hwan and S-class hero. There may be differences in our positions, but at least when we are together like this, we can live comfortably without worrying about anything else. Isn’t that right?”

“That’s right.”

Baek Seol-hee leaned closer to me.

It held me tightly like a body pillow, clinging to me somewhere and preventing me from leaving.

“I really like it because it’s comfortable. At this moment when I’m with you, I really don’t care about anything… No, I feel so at ease that I don’t want to worry about anything.”

The heartbeat transmitted through Baek Seol-hee’s skin was extremely stable.

“Like we’ve known each other for a long time.”

“Well. Wasn’t the first time we met in Seoul?”

“That’s right. That day in Seoul, I met him to rent a bike.”

Baek Seol-hee’s eyes were half sunken.

Of course, those eyes were interrogative, and I stroked Baek Seol-hee’s head with the hand that was resting on my arm.

“Do you like it because I play with it?”

“Yes. Good.”

“What?”

“I really want to keep it in my arms.”

I turned to Baek Seol-hee and hugged her tighter than Baek Seol-hee hugged me.

“What should I do? Seolhee. Do you want to stay with me from now on?”

“…….”

“Don’t send them somewhere else, but if villains or demons appear, tell them to look at the other S-class people over there and get out. Unless the situation worsens to the point where you step out, I want to keep you by my side.”

“Well, that is.”

“Why not?”

I got so close to Baek Seol-hee that her breath touched me, and Baek Seol-hee’s eyes began to shake greatly.

“Huh? Seolhee.”

“…You say that, but you actually have your wife.”

“You can stay together with your wife. If we had Ymir, there would be four.”

“Do you really have to do that?”

“Yes. I don’t want to miss it.”

I lean closer to Baek Seol-hee.

Baek Seol-hee was a little nervous, perhaps because I was a burden, but she did not back away from me.

“What do you want to do? If you watch movies at night like this more often from now on, I might come out stronger here.”

“What do you do if it gets darker?”

“Well. At least it won’t harm Baek Seol-hee, but it will make her spend more time as a woman for herself than as a hero for the people.”

I stroked Baek Seol-hee’s cheek and got closer to her face.

“Have you ever thought about that? I don’t want to be this country’s hero, but I want to be a woman who shares love with someone.”

“…And that love is with a man who has a wife and plays around with other women?”

“There are various forms of love. If you love me, I will give you even greater love. Only.”

I put my index finger on Baek Seol-hee’s lips.

“No monopoly.”

“…What if you want to monopolize it?”

“You will be destroyed.”

“Me? After….”

Baek Seol-hee put her hands behind my back and hugged my back even tighter than me.

“What if I take you and hide on a quiet island somewhere, build an ice castle, and then make you never go out for the rest of your life? Then, since your wife or Ymir will come to save me, you think I will be destroyed because I will fight them?”

“No.”

“Then, I guess I’ll fall in love with you and throw away my entire life, including being the hero Snow White, and live with you. As you said, even if a villain or a villain appears that everyone else can’t handle and that I must step up to, I’m afraid I’ll focus on making love with you?”

“That’s not it either.”

“Then? Ah, I know what it is.”

Baek Seol-hee took my hand, swept it away with her hand, and smiled as she placed it on her lower abdomen.

“If you have a child, are you afraid that you will give up everything for that child?”

“If I have a child, I can put everything aside even more than now and work for my child for the rest of my life.”

“…What?”

“I guess that’s what it means to be a father. My role is to dedicate myself to my family and pave the way for my child to grow up properly. If it were for that, I could quit my job now.”

“…I’m serious. You really, really mean it.”

Confusion flashes across Baek Seol-hee’s face.

“If that’s really true, tell me. Do you really want to have children with me?”

“Of course.”

“Why?”

“If I hadn’t married my wife, the person I would have proposed marrying would have been you.”

“…That’s a bit unfortunate.”

Baek Seol-hee sighed as if lamenting and buried her head on my shoulder.

“If that were the case, I could have married you first. Hey, if I told you not to date other women, wouldn’t you?”

“Of course. But, can you handle it?”

“…Can you afford it?”

“Okay. It’s almost an extension of what I said earlier about destruction. What I mean is.”

I lowered Baek Seol-hee’s hand, proving that I was still strong and healthy.

“You, it’s hard for me to handle it on my own right now.”

“That’s….”

“If you repeat this every day, can you really handle it?”

“…….”

“It would be possible if you are unemployed. If you don’t engage in economic activities, you will be able to afford it. But you know. People with special abilities have personal desires that are several times stronger than those of ordinary people, and they need a lot of resources to fulfill those desires.”

“…….”

Baek Seol-hee lowered her head with a slightly fearful expression.

“…Can’t we do it with effort?”

“There are many things in the world that are impossible no matter how hard you try. You know this because you’ve done it many times now. That you can’t handle me alone. Look at the time now.”

I pointed to the movie on TV.

“I was running from the beginning of the movie, and now the movie is reaching its highlight. But you’re exhausted because you reached the highlight before that.”

“And you?”

“I can comfortably watch more than five movies now.”

Fear gradually began to appear in Baek Seol-hee’s eyes.

“It is said that Ymir got away without realizing it, but would the situation have changed if Ymir was by his side now? no. When about 10 minutes pass after the commercial break and the next movie starts, both of you will already be panting from exhaustion, right?”

“You are actually a person with special abilities, right?”

“What?”

“Isn’t this ability much higher only in that direction? So, I guess it’s fine like this.”

“That could be true. It’s fun. He doesn’t feel any magical power at all, but he is a super talented person whose patriotic magic only burns when he is patriotic…”

The movie is over.

I stood on top of Baek Seol-hee and looked down while stroking her head.

“If it were really like that, would you be able to handle it?”

“…….”

“You are having such a hard time right now against a man named Do Ji-hwan. If I were someone with superpowers and told you to use my magic for patriotism, would you be able to handle it?”

“Patriotic…horse power?”

“Yes.”

Ymir confirmed.

Having worked with Goblins and Platinum Sun first, she is well aware of the dangers of Goblins.

How scary a goblin that has given its all is.

“Human imagination is truly diverse. And as long as you have imagination as your foundation, you can do anything. Even if it is a battlefield called patriotism.”

“For example…something like this?”

Saaaa.

A cold energy flowed from Baek Seol-hee’s hand stretched out behind my back and wrapped around my back.

“This is a net to capture the villain. It’s like that in the first place. But like you said, if you use just a little bit of imagination, you can make it so that the man can’t run away.”

“…….”

“Now, you can’t escape from me.”

As Baek Seol-hee said.

Baek Seol-hee created a cocoon of ice as if she had grabbed me and crawled into the one-person tent, and I was trapped holding on to her.

It should be possible to crawl out from the inside, but it is not easy to get out because your body is caught in a large bump somewhere.

Even if I tried to squeeze my way out, Baek Seol-hee would suffocate me and make it impossible for me to escape.

“Do Ji-hwan.”

Baek Seol-hee stroked my face.

“Do you think that if you just trust your face and body and apply yourself like that, everything will work out?”

“Yes.”

” Are you the kind of person who makes fun of me, plays with me, deceives me, and then appeases me like this?”

“Yes.”

That’s how it was made.

” Am I easy? ”

“That can’t be possible. From the first time I approached you, I approached you with the determination that if something went wrong, I would have an ice spear stuck in my stomach.”

I’m serious.

“Then.”

Baek Seol-hee held my hand.

“I will ask this with all my sincerity. Everything else is done, just answer this. If you tell a lie… I’ll kill you.”

Baek Seol-hee’s eyes sink coldly.

“I.”

Baek Seol-hee looked at me with trembling eyes.

“If I get pregnant, will you take responsibility?”

“Of course. Don’t you trust me?”

“What about you? If you answer like that, I won’t believe you any more.”

“Then I will change my answer. In the first place.”

I held Baek Seol-hee in my arms and kissed her forehead.

“If I wasn’t going to take responsibility, I wouldn’t have approached you in the first place.”

“Then.”

Baek Seol-hee turned her head slightly to the side.

“I promise to take responsibility.”

“Promise.”

I am Baek Seol-hee and my finger-

“Don’t stamp there. Here…”

“…….”

again.

The movie started.
