by fnovelpiaI left Mur and Aisha, who had come to visit us, to take Luna, who was very upset, and bowed my head again to the cafe owner.
“I apologize again… .”
“Sir, it’s really okay if you don’t do that. Please just come again next time.”
“I’m really, really sorry… !!!”
As I folded my back in half and apologized again, I heard her sigh.
“Ha… really. If you don’t stop apologizing like that, will you give me a gift?”
“Yes?”
10 minutes later, when I returned to the hotel, I had a basket full of snacks in my hands.
“… Strange?”
It felt like a dream, but the sweet smell coming from the basket was too real to be a dream.
It wasn’t like leftover inventory that was meant to be sold yesterday, but rather the items that had been put on display for immediate sale in the store were taken out and taken care of.
‘I never thought he meant what he said.’
Even when I refused, more snacks were added to the basket.
In the end, when I accepted it with tears in my eyes, a wealthy-looking noblewoman stood up and paid the price.
‘Even if you try to summarize it, it doesn’t make sense.’
When I gave up trying to understand and returned to the hotel, trying hard to avoid spilling the large basket, the employee sitting at the counter greeted me brightly.
“Hello!”
“Hello… .”
Exhausted, I weakly said hello and headed towards the stairs, but then turned around again.
“Would you like some snacks?”
“Yes, uh, yes?”
“I got too much from the cafe in the square. How many do you think?”
“My, am I? Do you dare take it!?”
“?”
It was delicious, but it wasn’t a place where people would dare make noise.
‘Oh, you were kidding?’
Be dangerous. If I were not careful, I would have shown that I am a person without common sense in this world.
“Yes, of course. Oh, this is what I recommend.”
When I took out a small envelope from the basket, the employee’s sister politely held it out with both hands shaking. You are really good at acting.
“Thank you… ! I will keep it as an heirloom!!”
“Ahaha, it would be bad if you did that.”
I laughed at the joke and felt lighter as I climbed up with the slightly shrunken basket.
‘I also have common sense now. It’s still not enough, but still.’
Thanks to my knowledge of the value of money, I knew right away that she was joking.
If you didn’t know, that house was actually extremely expensive!? I might have been embarrassed.
‘It’s thanks to Mur and Aisha.’
They were grateful teachers who held my hand and guided me through this world.
Since I was on my way to the room where they and Luna were, it was natural that my steps became lighter.
“Kids! I’m here!”
And when I opened the guest room door wide, I made eye contact with Luna, who had her hands tied behind her back and was even gagged.
“… .”
The door was closed quietly.
“Umm!!”
“Lily, don’t run away, come in.”
‘I don’t want to go in.’
The feeling of wanting to see him so much just a moment ago had completely disappeared, but I really couldn’t not go in. I quickly came in and closed the door so as not to make any noise.
“What on earth—”
“I don’t want you to misunderstand, but we didn’t gag and bind him because we liked it.”
“He tried to cause a ruckus by saying he was going to see Lily, so we combined our efforts and managed to subdue him.”
Luna proudly puffed out her chest.
“Great!”
I don’t think it’s a compliment, but if you’re proud of it, you shouldn’t point it out.
To make eye contact, I sat down on the floor and spoke to Luna.
“I will untie you and the gag, so will you promise not to make loud noises or attack Mur and Aisha?”
“!!”
Luna nodded vigorously.
I couldn’t believe that Luna would make a false promise to me, so I relievedly removed the gag and placed a white cloth soaked in saliva next to me.
“Keoheuk, ket, hat… Ahhh… Hmm, my mouth hurts.”
Saliva was flowing down his cheeks and chin, and he tried to rub his face with his shoulder as if it was itchy, so I wiped it and scratched it instead.
“It’s a shame that I ended up being waited on for leisure. Thank you, my lord.”
“No. More than that… .”
I loosened Luna’s hands and got her up, but I didn’t know which side of the two beds in the room I should make her sit on. Mur and Aisha were sitting on one side each.
However, Luna sat down on a nearby bed and slapped her upper thigh.
“Good. My lord, sit here.”
“… Why?”
“Providing a place for the lord to sit is also a worthy duty of a woman.”
I don’t know what you’re talking about. Today seems to be a day where I hear a lot of things I don’t understand.
It didn’t have any meaning whatsoever.
“… .”
“… .”
Mur and Aisha were managing their facial expressions for now, but I didn’t want to check what their faces would be like if I actually sat down where Luna was offering.
“I was curious from the beginning, what is that master?”
When I sat down across from Luna and asked, she patted her thigh one last time as if she felt regretful.
“Means master and king. And Yeo’s lord is now across from Yeo.”
“I didn’t ask the meaning of the word… So why am I Luna’s lord? I’m not anyone’s master or king.”
-master.
For a moment, my gaze almost turned to Mur. I succeeded in suppressing it. It was dangerous.
“Reason? Did the lord bother to ask Yeo why he trampled Yeo in such a cruel and humiliating way?”
Luna tilted her face to the side as if she was genuinely surprised. The two horns on its forehead were also tilted to the side.
I suddenly remembered holding those two horns like handles and holding my face in the bathroom.
“Well, that’s—”
“Ah, I see. I understand.”
Did you understand?
“Do you want to let the woman who was defeated by her lord tell through her own words how she felt when she was defeated by her lord? Don’t you have pretty interesting tastes?”
“No! I don’t have that kind of taste! If it’s my taste, it’s rather sweet—”
“I wasn’t going to interrupt, but it seems like the story is about to be completely derailed, so I’ll do so. My name is Mur, but can I call you Luna?”
When Mur, who was sitting next to Luna, opened her mouth, Luna looked at her with interest.
“What is it with you that you treat her so rudely?”
‘OMG.’
I was out of breath.
Mur and Luna each have strong pride. Just imagining how terrible it would be if it crashed gave me goosebumps.
‘Ma, I have to stop you!’
However, contrary to my expectations, Mur’s voice as he answered was calm.
“Me? I am Lily’s first girl. And you are the third.”
“… Are you just trying to match her with that?”
“I know that you, Khan, are extremely strong, but I am by no means weak.”
Mur was still calm.
“We restrained each other, and I had help from Aisha, but I actually succeeded in tying and gagging you just a moment ago, right?”
“That’s because you don’t show your sincerity. You guys probably don’t know either.”
“That could be true. But even so.”
Mur’s golden eyes looked at me, Aisha smiling softly, and then back to Luna.
“Why did we restrain each other in the first place? You probably don’t know either.”
“… .”
“You and I should avoid unnecessary bumps. Not for the other person, not for yourself, but for Lily.”
“… … … Hi.”
Luna giggled.
“You guys aren’t that bad. All right, treat her the way you see fit. But if I cross the line, I will always ask Lily for permission to kill you.”
“I don’t know what to do to be recognized by the great khan.”
When Myure lightly sarcastic, Luna burst out laughing.
‘what?’
To be honest, Mur’s response was much better than I expected.
I thought that, given Mur’s personality, he would fight back without hesitation if he was the first to argue.
‘perhaps.’
Aisha was smiling softly as always.
‘I guess they said something.’
I know that Aisha is not someone who just smiles. Just as Mur is not just a person with strong pride.
“But you. Opening, I don’t like you.”
As soon as I could feel relieved, Luna pointed a finger at Aisha.
“Oh my, is that me?”
“Yes, you. It’s so unpleasant to see that face wearing two layers of mask.”
‘Two layers?’
Even Aisha seemed taken aback for a moment by those words.
“… I don’t really know what you’re talking about.”
“… Huh.”
Luna crossed her arms.
“Then it is done. Just like what I said to Mur earlier, if I fight with you, it will be difficult for my lord, so I will not fight anymore.”
Aisha nodded.
“Yes, thank you.”
“… Huh.”
Luna still looked dissatisfied, but did as she said and said nothing more.
‘Aisha?’
There was one thing I noticed about her.
The only time Aisha hides something is when she is embarrassed about it.
‘What on earth?’
Considering the expression of wearing a two-layer mask, is it related to Aisha’s past? Or personality?
I do not know.
‘But whatever it is.’
I never intended to find out what Aisha, who was always confident and cool, was hiding because she was embarrassed.
And if it was something that would have been detrimental to us by hiding it, she would have told me no matter how hard it was.
The air in the room was still stinging.
I opened my mouth before I froze in that state.
“Let’s go eat something.”
This could backfire if the two people truly don’t like each other, but it was common for the hostility to decrease as they ate together.
I grabbed Luna and Aisha’s hands and half-forced them to stand up, but Mur was the only one left behind, unable to hold their hands.
“Ah,” Murr was the first to smile when he looked into her eyes.
“It’s okay. I took too much in advance.”
I vividly remembered the feeling of Mur’s lips, which had roughly taken my lips. The feeling of wanting soft, hot, and sensitive skin.
“Ugh… .”
I feel my face turning red. He hummed and turned his head.
“That’s right, I took too much.”
Suddenly both my hands hurt. The two hands holding each other on the left and right are squeezing mine… It was held.
“… Ouch.”
I whispered, but the expressions of the three people surrounding me did not change.
Mur had a face filled with a strange sense of superiority, Luna had a snarling expression, and Aisha was still smiling but her eyes were cold.
‘Oh right.’
They may have been temporary allies, but Mur and Aisha weren’t really a team.
And I’m caught in the middle.
“Ouch… .”
Feeling the throbbing pain coming from both my hands, I once again cursed the perverted lizard in my heart for sending me into this world.
