episode_0116

The sunset has already set, and the time has come when the veil of night has fallen over the world. Stars rise in the sky and appear in the eyes of those who look at them.

however…

“Now… what should I do…?”

“Umm..yeah, Venice.”

“That’s right…”

“Hmm…Hmm.”

“Sure..?”

We are still standing on this cliff…

When everything was over, I couldn’t even figure out what to do or where to start.

I never thought things would go this far. No, it would be appropriate to say that I couldn’t even imagine it.

For your information, it seemed like Royu had decided to call me ‘Venice’. He said that it would be good to get a new feeling as he makes another start in a new world.

As long as it was okay with her, I didn’t mind, so of course I allowed it.

Whiiing-

As the day passed and night came, it felt a little chilly.

Because there was no warm sunlight and the place we were was on a cliff facing the sea, the wind was blowing through.

Rattling…

“Ugh…Ugh..”

Without realizing it, my body trembled a little. If I were an ordinary person, the temperature would have been just tolerable, but since I am not ordinary…

Ugh. Why am I so weak…

“Oh, is it cold? Come on. I will hug you…”

“Uh…huh?! I…I’ll give you a hug! Please hug me…!”

“Ah…no? Come to me. I’ll keep you warm!”

“Well…come to me…! Because my body has already warmed up…!”

Suddenly, the four women who were approaching me with scary looks spoke at the same time and began to look at each other intensely.

It’s like looking at an enemy targeting the same prey… Huh? Why do I feel this way?

“…I’m sorry, my love… Venice will be the warmest place in my arms. So give it to me.”

The one who ended the heavy silence was Royu, who approached me with his hand outstretched. If it were normal, I would have run straight into that warm embrace but…

“…Huh? Venice?”

For some reason, I suddenly felt scared of Royu, so I couldn’t get closer to him. Why…? I’ve never been like this before…?

As I hesitated, I heard Roy click his tongue. You probably heard it wrong, right? Because Roy has never been like that…

Phew- Phew.

Then, a sound that sounded like a sneer was heard from behind Royu. I looked at them questioningly, but since there was no change, I must have misheard.

“Hehe..! I guess the leader likes me! Then come to me…!”

With a smile on her face, Seris passed Royu, who had stopped in place, and started walking towards me.

Just because it’s cold doesn’t mean the only way is to hug me, but it seemed like they couldn’t think of any other way.

“Yes…yes…”

Because my body was shaking and colder than before, I had no choice but to try to hug Seris who was approaching me.

“Ugh…Ugh…Ugh…! Everything..the leader told me…!”

….I tried to do it, but suddenly Cerys made a strange noise, her eyes became strange, and she immediately walked away.

What…what on earth is this? It seems like my instincts are telling me not to approach… And Cerys suddenly feels scary too, so I stop.

“Phew. Move. It seems you guys don’t like Venice.”

The one who passed Seris, who was frozen in place like a stone statue, was Ariel with a mocking smile on her face.

Ariel was definitely a little colder the last time I saw her, but I felt fortunate that she was now able to express her emotions like a normal person.

“Come…come. I’ll keep you warm…”

I felt anxious again. I felt a fear I had never felt before.

“Hehe…Hehehe… Hehe..”

And that moment when she took one step closer. Because the suspicious laughter that was heard was so gloomy.

“Sorry…I’m sorry…”

“….Huh?”

I had no choice but to say sorry and take a step back. Ariel had a gloomy smile on her face as the life disappeared from her eyes.

“Fu…Fuhahaha!!”

At that time, Carly burst out laughing. The sound of laughter, as if it were funny or laughable, echoes all over the coastal cliffs.

“Ha… This is what happens in the end! As expected, the owner liked my warm embrace the most!”

As Kali passes by the three statues, she turns around and sneers at each one. Then I pass the last statue with a dark smile and look at me.

“Please… hug me, master… my body… is warm.”

Rattling…

It was unbearably cold now and I felt like I was going to catch a cold at any moment, so I took a step closer to Carly.

however.

“Hehe…Hehe…Hehe… Master… It’s the master…! Because I will never let you go now…!”

The moment I looked at Kali’s face, with drool dripping and her eyes taking on a suspicious look. I had no choice but to run away.

“Mi..mi..I’m sorry!!”

Run away! It felt like someone inside me was saying that to me. I began to run away from them, my body shaking from the cold and weak.

“…..Catch it!”

And of course, it was caught in less than a second.

Against my will, the difference between me and them was so great… even Royu was similar.

***

Quietly~

“”……..””

A heavy silence flows between the four women surrounding Venice, who is sleeping with her dress wrapped like a blanket in the middle.

First, they caught Venice, which was running away, but Venice was still shivering from the cold, so she immediately used Ariel’s magic to raise the ground and build a small hut.

Ta-dak-tad-dak-

When I entered the small earthen house, I felt like I was not as cold as before because the wind was not blowing through.

Venice, which was still fragile, seemed cold, so in the end, they used Ariel’s magic again to create a small bonfire.

“Whoaam…”

Venice, who must have been very tired, dozed off in the warmth, eventually fell asleep while surrounding them.

The situation is no different from that of a hunted animal lying defenseless with four animals right in front of it.

“”……..””

Naturally, the eyes of the four beasts glowed magically, but then they all sighed and looked down at Venice lovingly.

“Tsk… He was definitely dependable. It looks so cute here. So much so that I want to take care of it.”

Loyu talks while wearing a cumbersome black dress on Venice.

It was clear that Royu was their romantic rival, but they had no choice but to acknowledge her story.

“Big…big hum. I’ll admit it. The leader was definitely very dependable and cool… but now… gulp.”

When Venice was the general manager, he was clearly taller than average and had enormous muscles.

Actually, I liked Seris better the way she is now. Because it was so cute that I wanted to eat it…

“….I can’t help but admit it. Hmm.”

Venice defeating the warlock was definitely cool, but I remember seeing cute scenes as well.

But… what I see now can’t be compared to that. Ariel licked her lips.

“Master…you’re so cute…!”

My master was obviously weaker than me, but he was taller and his hands were warmer.

The way it looked now… it was so bad that I didn’t want to put it in my arms and let it go.

…If this goes on, can I even be called master now…?

“Call me…master…? Heh…heh…heh…!”

As Kali, who had started delusional, gasped for breath, a gaze of salty contempt focused on her.

“”……..””

Time passed, but nothing much was said. Although they saved each other’s lives and helped each other…

Because that was that and this was this. There was no doubt that it was a little… no, a very awkward relationship.

Royu, who decided that he would stay up all night without saying a word until Venice woke up, let out a sigh and began speaking.

“Phew. Everyone… likes Venice. Right?”

“Sounds obvious…!”

“Of course. It’s more precious than my life.”

“…If the owner…must die, I could die!”

Their will was true. Because Venice was a light and an entity that could never be dropped again.

If Venice had told her to die with sincerity, she could have died with tears in her eyes.

Although they are obviously lovers aiming for the position of royal wife… their love for Venice is probably similar.

They looked at each other with unknown expressions and emotions.

“….Polygamy is possible in this world. Yes? That means Venice will not abandon us or leave us.”

What Royu said was correct. This was a crazy world where polygamy was possible, but it was infinitely good news for them.

However, the problem started now.

“Everyone… are you targeting me? I mean ‘honesty’.”

“”……..!””

Everyone’s eyes turn sharp at Royu’s words.

Honesty. For those women who long for Venice, it was a lifelong goal and something that must be achieved.

What that means is that you have to show off your actions to win over the women in front of you and win over Venice…!

Bad thoughts begin to appear in their minds.

What if Venice… doesn’t choose me as her confidant? Could it be… what if they don’t accept me as a concubine?

Of course, that wouldn’t be the case in kind and kind Venice… but if something like that were to happen, it could go crazy.

And… even the thought of killing the bitches who took their places…!

Crumbling-

As soon as I reach that thought, the sound of teeth grinding echoes through the earthen house. A loud sound rang out, loud enough to drown out the sound of firewood burning, and everyone glared at each other.

If anything happens… these people…?!

“Umm…Umm..”

However, Venice turned around at the sudden sound, and they lost their momentum as if they had died.

“Haa… Everyone’s expressions are so scary. I can almost see what you’re thinking.”

“Keuhm..”

“What…what are you talking about..?”

“Did you get caught?”

For a moment, I almost got emotional because of the overwhelming emotions, but I can’t do anything right now.

“I don’t know what will happen in the future, but… let’s live for Venice, at least for a while.”

Royu’s eyes darken a little. As she strokes the head of a sleeping Venice, it seems as if she is seeing something from the past.

“…As you know, Venice has a painful past. Even though he seems nice and kind… he’s a delicate child. If you get hurt, do you cry alone every night?”

The expressions of the three women who heard those words also darkened.

That’s right… life in Venice was also so miserable and sad. How much pain has that kind and gentle person endured?

And yet… you always smile in front of others. Because it’s so lovely.

“…Okay. I can’t help it.”

“Hmm… I understand. If it’s for Venice.”

“….It’s not because I like you guys.”

Because his happiness was more important to them than their own self-interest.

They signed a small treaty that only Venice knew about, and they just looked at Venice, who was sleeping quietly, with a smile.
