episode_0045

“Okay…so this is how it ended up…”

After the commotion that almost resulted in loss of chastity and virginity was over, we entered the store to lay down the fallen Ilicha.

Elisias laid Illisha down on the old sofa and placed his hand on her forehead.

“It’s hot…”

Elisias looked at Illisha, who was breathing heavily, with pitiful eyes and exhaled lightly.

“No matter what…”

“So…But if it weren’t for you, Elisias, I would…probably…”

When he trembled and hinted in a half-joking tone, Elisias chuckled and covered his mouth.

“Yes, I guess you really can’t do without me.”

“Now that I think about it…”

It was only after the crazy situation was over that I realized that something had changed in Elisias.

It seemed correct to say that she had become more girlish in some way, starting with her clothes and even her hair style.

“And then… why did your style suddenly change?”

Elisias was staring at the sight for the first time because it was strange to see something that wasn’t even in the game’s CG. Elisias’ face turned red and his gaze shifted to the floor.

“Hmm…I have some advice from my teacher…”

The hair that had been braided at the back was loose and became literally long, straight hair.

Therefore, the silver hair that fell just below the hips emphasized the feeling of cleanliness, and the hairpin on the side reminded me of a cute image that was different from usual.

That wasn’t the only thing. The impression itself completely changed.

If his eyes were usually a bit sharp, now he had a somewhat innocent look, and his lips seemed redder and more lively than usual.

“Did you put on makeup?”

“Huh, what do you think…! Can’t you see me again, looking a little different from usual?”

Elisias stuttered with a red face and then turned his head towards me.

If it looks different, it definitely looks different.

If before she seemed a bit stiff and cool and hard to approach, now she seemed like a cute, neat girl.

Is it because the clothes I was wearing changed?

If the clothes she was wearing before were elegant formal clothes worn by nobles to show courtesy, the clothes she was currently wearing were civilian clothes that looked a little more casual.

“Uh, rather than how…something…”

It looks cute. I tried to say it, but I felt embarrassed and shoved the words back into my throat.

“Interesting?”

Elisias clicked his tongue with a pouting look on his face as if he didn’t like my answer, then turned to the corner.

He muttered something in the corner and took out a small notebook from his pocket, so I listened to the whisper.

“It’s not easy…Master…”

Master? Does this guy have a teacher?

◈◈◈◈◈

“Loved person?”

I thought it would look funny that I was so flustered because I couldn’t understand the true meaning of what he said, but surprisingly, Amy waited patiently for me to answer.

“Aren’t you too nervous? I think it’s just girls’ talk~ Aren’t love stories the most fun?”

He gestured that it was okay and quenched his thirst with the slightly cold tea.

“Unfortunately, there is no such person…”

In response to my hesitant response, Amy put her mouth on the teacup and opened her eyes round.

“Really? I thought there was something going on with the guy I saw last time, but it’s a shame…”

The man? I’m sure you’re referring to Harry.

When Harry’s story comes out, I feel like something is stabbing me and my heart starts pounding.

“Ha, in the case of Harry, he just… feels like a colleague who helps me with my work…ha…ha…”

In response to the awkward smile, Amy narrowed her eyes and made a “hmmm…” sound and an expression as if something wasn’t right.

“Actually… I don’t even know what that feeling of love is…”

I’ve only read the book, so I only know it abstractly, so I don’t know what it feels like specifically.

“Elysias is incredibly pretty, so I thought she would definitely be popular with the opposite sex… Then, have you had zero dating experience so far?”

My face got hot and I cleared my throat to make an excuse that wasn’t an excuse.

“Hmm… Is that really a problem?”

“No~ It’s no problem!”

Should I consider meeting my fiancé, which my father forced me to do when I was 18, a romantic experience?

No, it’s embarrassing to even call it love in the first place.

It was just a political marriage for the continuation of the family, but in fact, the person who was said to be my fiancé did not seem to like me. From the beginning, they treated me like I was lacking.

Sometimes, when people look at me with strange eyes, I get goosebumps…

“Well, don’t worry too much”

At Amy’s words, I suddenly come to my senses, erasing the past that came to me like smoke.

“There will definitely be someone who will make you feel that emotion naturally~”

“The person who will make you feel that emotion…”

Behind Emi, who was speaking as if she was asserting herself, I stared at my reflection in the teacup.

Is it true that there is someone who understands me and makes me feel that way, as I am treated like a hidden child even by my family, and everywhere I go, I am looked down upon as not good enough? This is absurd.

“Ha, is that so? So, for example, in what way?”

I smiled and crossed my arms, hoping to at least hear the story.

“It’s hard to explain everything in words, but…”

Amy tapped her fingers on the table and seemed lost in thought for a moment. Then, as if she had finished organizing her thoughts, Amy slowly opened her mouth.

“Umm…I want to see your face one more time, and I’m also worried if I can’t see you”

“I miss you, but I also worry if I can’t see you…”

At those words, several scenes begin to pass by like déjà vu.

A few days ago, in order to carry out a mission that Harry had asked me to do, I stopped by his room to see his face one more time.

In the end, I had no choice but to watch him sleep, but that was okay.

I couldn’t sleep properly and collapsed the other day, so I was worried that something was wrong with my body. I really wanted to get a little more rest.

“Oh my…? Elisias, your expression has become very girlish…?”

Amy laughed with her mouth turning into a crescent moon and narrowed eyes as if she was having fun.

“City, it’s noisy!”

I scream out of shame and my voice breaks.

Then Amy looked at me happily with an expression like that of a child.

Is this really the leisure of an adult?

“Or…does that person get annoyed when he or she sees someone being close to him? ”

“Of course~ That’s called jealousy. 2.”

“When we’re together, my heart starts pounding and I feel dizzy?”

Amy nodded quietly to the question I asked.

At that moment, my head got so hot that it felt like it was going to explode.

“Wow… steam is really rising from the person’s head… your face is really red…?”

I can’t answer. All sorts of thoughts fill my brain, so I can’t speak.

“This is from my favorite novel… When you fall in love, no matter how weak you are, it gives you the strength to overcome any adversity and do anything.”

I know that story. This is part of a romance novel I read at the library with Harry.

“Isn’t it cool? I tend to agree with that story. I am naturally a very fearful person, but because I love my husband… I was able to overcome any scary situation that came my way.”

Amy looked at the man’s picture hanging on the wall with a bitter expression.

“Of course…it’s still the same now…did that person…instill that kind of courage in Mr. Elisias?”

It gives you courage. Are you that kind of person?

I asked myself, the man in a corner of my heart, the guy who made my heart pound and not let me sleep.

“Denying you is the same as denying me. So, as for that last sentence, I don’t know what it means, but don’t do it, because at least you are a very useful person to me”

You said that maybe I was just what you needed for yourself, but you answered that maybe you were just arbitrarily expecting it, but I liked that too.

“Don’t think of yourself as useless, at least I need you, you depressed girl.”

No one needed me. Everyone was disappointed in me. But you told me I needed it.

What you said to me that day moved me and made me happier than anything else. It gave me courage.

“It’s okay, I believe it because it’s you, Elisias, and no one else”

I was so thankful that you believed in me as if you knew everything about me when I wasn’t confident in myself and when I was afraid of failing again.

The teacup I was looking at was suddenly filled with that man’s face, not my face.

Your image in that teacup looked very sad.

“I thought that if I could help you who are in a similar situation to me and see that happy ending, I would definitely be saved.”

He looked so sad that I wanted to hug him tightly. I want to hug your severe wounds too. I wanted to help you.

Yes, I admit it. I think maybe…I love you.

I took a sip of the image of the man in the teacup. So, my stuffy heart felt relieved and I actually felt excited.

“Mr. Elisias…?”

I stood up, walked over to Amy, put my hand on my heart, and bowed my head to show as much respect as I could.

“I want to have you as my teacher…”

“, suddenly…?”

◈◈◈◈◈

“You know, why are you looking at me like that?”

When I tilted my head and asked about the contents of the notebook, Elisias was startled and hid the notebook behind her.

“Ah, ah! It’s no big deal! Wow, something suddenly occurred to me! Ha…haha… More than that, where is the antidote?”

Even though I was in a hurry to hide it, I was able to catch a glimpse of part of the notebook’s contents. It was definitely in the notebook’s contents.

[ how to make]

[Unknown Making: New Look]

[lesson 3 Be bold]

It was written like this.

“Ah, if that’s the case, here…”

The antidote bottle that Illisha dropped was only slightly cracked, but fortunately it was not broken.

After receiving the antidote, Elisias opened the cork, flipped it open, and held it to Ilicia’s mouth.

Feeling anxious for a moment, I grabbed Elisias’ shoulder.

“Wait a minute… You really don’t know. If something goes wrong…”

“Were you unsure and worried that you might fail?”

When I nodded without answering, Elisias smiled slightly.

“Someone told me…that they believe it because it is me and no one else.”

Elisias spoke in a low voice, almost like a whisper, and held my hand on her shoulder.

“I will give you those words back.”

“What is that…”

“It’s okay. Even if you don’t believe in yourself, I believe in you… So Harry, try believing in yourself too.”

He speaks quietly and feeds Illisha the antidote.

A little bit of green liquid is leaking out between Ipricha’s lips, and I’m worried that she might lose consciousness and not be able to consume it.

But fortunately, the back of Illisha’s neck moved up and down as if she was swallowing liquid.

“If the prediction is correct, the effect will come immediately…”

Because it was an immediate item in the first place. If there is no response, the antidote is a failure.

I closed my eyes and prayed so earnestly that it would work properly.

“Harry, what do you think…”

In response to Elisias’ question, I slowly lifted my closed eyelids.

“Ha…”

I could see that my rapid breathing had become much lighter than before. This was proven by the constant swelling and sinking of my abdomen.

“The fever in my head seems to have subsided a bit…”

Elisias, who placed his hand on Ilicia’s forehead to measure her temperature, answered.

“Side effects…”

I bite my nails and look at every inch of my body.

does not exist. The end result was that the irregular breathing became regular and seemed comfortable. In some ways, this could be considered a success, but it was not a complete success.

“How…was it successful?”

I shook my head and went limp, biting the nail of my other finger.

“No, in the first place, the effect should appear immediately and it should not be a problem”

“So…is there a problem with the antidote?”

“Fortunately, there are no side effects and seeing that it has some effect is half the success… So, what’s the problem? Magnification? Combination type? Oh shit!!!”

As I ruffled my hair in frustration, Elisias, who was watching, quietly got up from his seat and headed to the kitchen.

“What are you doing?”

In response to my question, Elisias brought something that looked like a damp towel and placed it on Ilicia’s head.

“My mother used to do this often when I had a fever in my head. If I do this, it will make me feel better.”

Illisha made a cold sound of “ugh” and then showed a happy expression.

“Shouldn’t we move sooner than that?”
