It felt like an hour had passed before Llewen stopped crying.

When I saw her eyes were red and bloodshot from crying so much, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Don’t laugh.”

Lewen said with a pouting look.

I didn’t want to laugh, but the image of her crying bitterly just moments ago came to mind again and I couldn’t stop laughing.

“Don’t laugh!”

“Okay.”

That’s how I responded to her cry… Honestly, I wondered if I could bear it.

It was because I kept looking at Lewen’s face, and it reminded me of her previous appearance.

I barely suppressed the laughter that was rising and said,

“So did you all cry? Crybaby saint?”

“I’m not a crybaby!”

She recoils almost like a fit.

The thing that was glaring at me with its mouth closed was screaming at me to take back what I had just said.

I gave my best expression of ignorance and spoke with a hint of puzzlement.

“Is that so? I thought he was a crybaby because he cried so loudly that it made the world cry.”

“Ugh… ”

Lewen pursed her lips and glared at me with an expression full of resentment.

If you look at his fists shaking, it looks like he’s holding it in.

That didn’t stop me.

There was now something that could make fun of the normally perfect girl, so how could she miss it?

In fact, I had to tease him even more.

I called her playfully again.

“Crybaby saint.”

“I’m not a crybaby saint! And my name is not a saint, but Llewen! It’s Lewen!”

While she was in my arms, she patted her chest.

It didn’t hurt because it didn’t contain any strength, but it clearly showed signs of dissatisfaction.

However, human psychology is such that when you are told not to do something, you want to do it more.

I teased her even more.

“Okay, crybaby Llewen. Is it okay for me to call you Crybaby Llewen from now on?”

“Profit!”

Llewen’s two faces turned red.

It seemed like he was going to explode at any moment.

“Die!”

This time, he wields divine power as if he won’t let it go.

I thought she would moderate it, but looking at her angry face and the divine power wrapped in her fists, I realized she had no intention of doing so.

Knowing how strong she can become when she truly wants to give it to me, I had to avoid it at all costs.

If you do not avoid it and allow it to continue, it is certain that you will suffer from pain for a while.

I was thinking about it and came up with a good idea.

“Hmph!”

I leaned forward before she hit me.

Lewen was embarrassed by my sudden action and hesitated, and in the meantime, I placed one arm on her back and bent my body even further.

Then Llewen’s body also bent down and put her other arm on her leg and gave strength to both arms.

Llewen looked like she was going to fall, but in an instant, she was hugged like a princess by me.

Llewen’s face turned red as if it was about to explode.

“Hipp… ”

Lewen hiccupped as if she was quite surprised.

Once it started, she began to hiccup constantly and her already red face became even redder.

She twisted her body this way and that to somehow escape, but because I was holding her tightly, she could not resist and had no choice but to stay in my arms.

“Hi! Let go, let go!”

Lewen said in a trembling voice.

So I hugged her tightly so that she couldn’t escape.

“If you promise not to hit me, I will let you go.”

“Cariel made a mistake first! Hi! It’s strange that Kariel is trying to negotiate!”

She protests, as if asking if the current situation is really right.

I also agreed to some extent.

Since I started first, it is true that I am in a situation where I have to say I was wrong.

However, I also had something to say to some extent.

“No matter what, it’s a bit burdensome.”

I said, looking at the divine power still wrapped around my fist.

Even though I was wrong, trying to wield divine power and hit it was quite burdensome.

She is not an ordinary person, and if you just consider the size of her sacred power and power, she is on a level comparable to mine.

It was obvious that if I got hit with a fist like that, the pain would last a long time, but I was a fool to just sit there and watch.

However, Lewen shouts out loud as if she cannot understand this.

“Cariel did something wrong! So let go!”

“I don’t like it.”

Seeing that Llewen showed no signs of calming down, I decided to take extraordinary measures.

“Hmph!”

When I started walking while holding her, Llewen was startled and wrapped her arms around my neck.

“Oh, won’t you take it down?”

“Since the saint wants to beat me so much, I would rather go to the village like this.”

If you drop it off, it’s obvious that the same situation as just now will happen.

In that case, it would have been better to leave it like this.

When you enter the village, you will probably get a lot of attention, but that shouldn’t be a big problem.

In fact, there is no problem with this behavior in a situation where we decided to recognize each other as lovers for a week. There would be no one who would take issue with this just because lovers are doing this.

Having made that decision, I was about to head to the village.

“… I lost.”

Llewen showed a sign of surrender.

He slightly turned his head and looked at her face.

Her face and even her neck were completely red, as if they would really explode if she got any more red.

I chuckled and dropped her off.

Lewen appeared to have completely lost her will to fight.

“Are you upset?”

“I’m not upset… ”

Her mood was so down that anyone could tell she was upset.

Her pouting lips were full of dissatisfaction.

I was worried for a moment because it seemed like the anger wouldn’t go away no matter what I did now.

Seeing her like that made me feel somewhat sorry, and I wanted to make her feel better.

‘But what should I do to release it?’

Since I have never been with a lover, my current situation was extremely difficult.

After thinking about it for a while, I remembered the ring I brought back from the imperial palace.

‘I don’t know what effect it has.’

I took the ring out of my pocket, thinking that giving it as a gift would make Llewen feel somewhat better.

Although it must have been a fairly old treasure from the imperial palace, it had a brilliant golden appearance.

I looked at the ring and thought.

‘Come to think of it… ‘

Suddenly, I remembered what Arina said before.

There is no woman who doesn’t like gifts.

Especially if it is a gift from someone you like.

At the time, I didn’t really know what those words meant, but now that I think about them, I can understand their meaning.

Probably, it was Arina who wanted to receive a gift from me.

I felt so stupid and trashy for only realizing this now.

‘I can’t believe I’m thinking about my old love while I’m with another woman.’

I even thought a lot about myself saying those words to another woman.

‘But what can I do?’

Live for the future and look at the present.

I had to do my best for her now.

Arina probably wants that too.

I smiled and adjusted the ring before calling Llewen.

“Lewen.”

“Why.”

A voice full of complaints.

I carefully stood next to her and asked.

“Don’t you need a gift?”

“No need.”

“Are you sure you don’t need it?”

“I really don’t need it, so go away. I don’t want to talk to Kariel.”

After saying that, Lewen completely turned her head and started walking, as if she didn’t want to talk to me anymore.

He seemed more upset than I thought.

I stood next to her and matched my pace.

I smiled awkwardly at the sight of him not even paying attention.

Instead of speaking, I held her hand.

When I held Lewen’s hand, I felt a warm feeling.

Llewen was shocked but did not reject it.

Seeing that he was so upset but didn’t refuse something like this, he bit his lip to suppress the laughter that was about to escape, and carefully grabbed the ring.

Then, she carefully placed the ring she was holding on her left ring finger.

Lewen was startled by the sudden touch and looked at the ring on her left ring finger.

Her eyes began to tremble like crazy, as if an earthquake had occurred.

My mouth was open, and I felt like I was speechless, unable to get any words out.

Were you moved?

Let’s think about it and look at it like that.

Lewen suddenly fell to her knees and her breathing became heavy.

Her body began to tremble like crazy, as if she was suffocating.

“Lewen!”

I looked at the ring on her left ring finger.

I thought this was what caused her to become like this, but no matter how much I looked, there was no curse or anything that would hurt her.

‘Then why?’

I couldn’t figure out why I was showing these symptoms.

If there was a problem, it would be resolved immediately, but I couldn’t even figure out what the problem was.

As I watched her as her tremors worsened, I came up with a hypothesis.

‘Is it trauma?’

trauma.

If that was the case, I could somewhat understand what she was like now.

It can be said to be a kind of mental illness.

Even though I usually do well, I sometimes have seizures when I see something related to trauma.

However, while thinking about this assumption, there was another question that arose.

Why did it happen now?

Since she lived with sacrifices for 15 years, she may have suffered enough trauma.

But I couldn’t figure out what caused it now.

“I’m sorry… sorry… sorry… ”

Lewen mutters to herself.

Her two pupils were looking into the distant sky, trembling more than before.

I thought that if things continued like this, the problem would get worse, so I forced her to sleep.

Normally, being forced to sleep like this doesn’t work at all for someone as strong as Rwensik, as it affects the mind, but he seemed to fall asleep easily.

I quietly picked her up and headed home again.
