puck!

“─────?!”

I had a strong feeling of floating.

bang!

I crashed into something.

Bye!

Something was smashed.

After I came to my senses, the pain continued to follow me.

That’s a bit too much── “Eugh────?!”

In the end, I ended up screaming.

My eyes widen, but the surroundings are dark.

The brain is finally starting to wake up.

‘what?! What happened now?!’

“Uh—?! Sihyeon-ah──?!!!”

Jules jumped out of bed and came running.

He looked extremely embarrassed.

“···What’s going on?!”

“Mi, I’m sorry! The first person I saw was burying his face in my chest…”

Jules was looking down at me in tears.

I burst out laughing again at that sight.

“Kuuu! I’m not Dantalian, I’m Sihyun Lee…!”

Jules also burst into laughter.

When I came to my senses, I saw that the house was in shambles.

Tables and chairs were smashed and scattered everywhere.

If this were a woman or a child, she would have died.

‘Still, it’s worth breathing.’

Even though he was thrown down by Zul’s blow.

It may not have been at full strength, but if it had been the same as the main battalion, I wouldn’t have been able to breathe. The durability of the body has increased noticeably.

“Are you okay?”

“···Phew! are you okay. Don’t worry.”

I shook off the sharp pain with a sigh.

But Jules was looking down at me with eyes full of confusion.

“But were you hoping for that?”

“Yes? What…──━━━?!”

As I followed Jules’ gaze to the destination, I experienced the sensation of my vision becoming blurry.

‘I don’t have to grant a wish like this?!’

Jules smiled in disgust and looked at my pants.

Their eyes are trying to estimate how much it is worth!

“Get up first.”

I avoided Jules trying to get me up and stayed down because I was embarrassed. It was so large that its owner was embarrassed. If I stood up now, I felt like I would scream like a monkey out of embarrassment.

“It’s not small. Be confident.”

“───────?!!!”

I closed my mouth and glared at Jules.

Jules smiled heartily and looked away from me.

Thick-!

My arms are tingling.

The table must have been smashed and pieces of wood tore the skin. I didn’t know because I was in a hurry.

“Sorry.”

“It doesn’t hurt because I became immortal.”

Hold! “Ugh?!”

Jules suddenly stabbed me in the side and grinned.

“It doesn’t hurt even after this?”

Once I calmed down to some extent, I got up and left.

If you have Venus’ blessing, no scars will remain even if the treatment is slow.

But the smell of blood spreads.

I had no choice but to treat my wounds with the Precious Blood. Afterwards, he picked up a broom and swept away the broken wood.

Jules cleaned up the house by picking up the broken tables.

The morning started earlier than usual.

*

“Puhahaha! So you need furniture?!”

Heinrich even applauded and laughed.

I tried to surprise Heinrich and Felix because I was afraid they wouldn’t recognize me, but it seems like they had already been noticed from the moment Dragonia visited the village.

It seems like Amy has already said everything to end the fuss. Thanks to this, the plan came to nothing.

“····Yes.”

“It makes me cheerful in the morning! good. I’ll make it all within a week and send it to you all at once.”

“Is that a pleasant story? To me, he only looks like a human being in heat.”

Felik was glaring at me with his arms crossed.

It seems very dirty. I guess so. Ramrats don’t get erections at bedtime.

Maybe that’s why Heinrich glances at Felix.

“Don’t say that. That’s what I do too. You can’t control it. Just like your shedding. It’s like getting hit for losing your hair, isn’t it pitiful?”

They say it’s a common illness, and it looks like Heinrich may have experienced it once somewhere.

“···Heung.”

Felic just looked away.

You won’t understand. I knew it all, but I wasn’t prepared.

“Oh, and follow me to the workshop.”

Heinrich gestures to me.

“Yes. Why are you doing that?”

“To measure the size.”

size?

As he obediently approached, Heinrich rummaged through his pockets and quickly took out a tape measure.

Then he started wrapping the ruler around my waist.

“Receiving the blessing of Venus means that your body size will no longer change, right?”

“Yes.”

“Then, I plan to make you some custom armor to wear.”

Armor? To me, the value of armor on the battlefield is beyond imagination.

How dare you make me custom armor…?

“Thank you. I will use it really well.”

“That’s it. Because you were the only one who shared that elephant meat with us last time.”

···elephant?

Oh, you’re talking about Groots.

I think Juul distributed the meat well as I said.

Heinrich measured my waist, shoulders, arms, thighs, soles, etc. and began writing them down in his hand.

Recently, Heinrich created a ballpoint pen.

Since it is still a prototype, the ink ejection is not constant, so a lot of ballpoint pen poop comes out, but it is a great product just because you don’t have to carry an ink tank.

“This size is enough. What armor do you want? Iron armor? Leather armor?”

It’s an armor that suits me.

I’ve never worn armor before.

There is nothing more strange than a convenience soldier wearing armor. Moreover, iron armor does not suit me, whose main battle is in the South.

“I would like you to make leather armor that a Drekkar mercenary would wear. He has no trouble moving and is a quiet guy.”

Heinrich chuckles.

“Mercenary?”

“Yes. A mercenary of ‘Drekar’.”

“Youngjae makes leather armor better than me.”

Heinrich gestured to Felix. Before I knew it, Felik was looking up at me.

But his expression was not that bright.

It seems troublesome.

“Where exactly do you plan to use it?”

“I think there will be a lot of cases of people disguising themselves as convenience diseases.”

Human life is expensive everywhere.

Even in modern warfare, some use mercenaries. If that’s the case, there’s no way there aren’t mercenaries behind the demarcation line.

“Leather armor must be hardened and boiled with oil several times. It’s not something you can make right away.”

“Where are you making it?”

“If you are planning to help Seolrang and disguise yourself as a soldier of convenience, you can put a nice dent in his armor.”

That’s a good opinion.

“Thank you for your answer.”

“Good. I will make you look like a rag as much as possible. Instead, know that you don’t have any iron armor to use.”

“It’s okay. Because I can’t wear heavy things.”

“It will take about a month. No matter how much it looks like a rag, there will be no problem with its protection since it is simply poured with waste oil to make it look old.”

Only then did Felic look away from me and turn to his card deck.

Now it looks like I interrupted the card game again.

“Yes. Thank you.”

“You just need to know.”

I bowed my head, greeted them both, and walked out of the village. Outside, several young Hosotts and Deberg were making sugar, and as always, Dennis was waiting for me.

“But then that pervert unbuttons her skirt and runs in in her underwear!”

···I think it’s my story given the circumstances.

Dennis, who was listening to my gossip next to me, looked at me with an awkward expression.

“Hello.”

“Ri···Good morning.”

“Ugh! Panties are perverted!”

While I was distracted in the classroom, a child who was surprised by my popularity pointed a finger at me and laughed.

“Sihyeon. Did you really do that?”

Shir’s elegant pretense of popularity stole attention.

There, as usual, the five of us were sitting together in a corner to watch Dalian.

···The slanted eyes make it seem like he knows everything that happened.

“Yuzu and Mira, you reckless bitches. Because of you, I───”

“Why is it our fault? It’s no different than what you gave it to Shir, right? Wrong?”

Yuzu laughs.

The prompt came. It’s all about that bitch.

“That’s right. What on earth were you thinking when you went out hunting together?”

Mummy?

This is rotten─

“That’s right. It’s a bit far-fetched to say you don’t know that.”

Uzzit?

“Or you have no sense.”

Even Yuso is delirious.

It’s clear that these words were planned in advance.

At the same time, I was grateful. Even though Shir and I had a different relationship, I didn’t show any bias.

Still, I don’t want to lose to them.

“What do you think, Dennis?”

“It’s Shir’s fault.”

As expected, I only have Dennis on my side.

“Why is it Shir’s fault?”

“Lee is human. Even if you live with Hosot because you don’t have parents, there’s no way you would know about Hosot’s traditions.”

“Hey, not having parents was the problem.”

I just crossed the line.

Yuzu, who made eye contact with me, shrugged and avoided my gaze.

“Sorry.”

Now that we think about it, since when did people stop feeling uncomfortable when they hear Shir’s name?

Or is the discomfort still the same, but is everyone enduring it?

‘I was asking Edeline this too.’

I can’t figure out why important things only come to mind later after everything is over.

“Shall we do it as usual?”

“Yes.”

I caught the wooden dagger that Dennis had thrown away.

I am blessed by Venus. It will be different from before.

Dennis just stood there, defenseless, with his knife pointed at me.

It’s always my job to go first.

He ran towards Dennis and stabbed him with a dagger.

The movement of the arm defending the dagger is clearly visible.

‘My eyesight has improved.’

Dennis is trying to avoid the dagger and stab me. I block the stabbing hand with my other hand── Stand tall!

My wrists are stuck to Dennis’ sides.

Why? By now—Dennis’ feet are moving!

As I was preparing to kick the car, I widened the distance in preparation for Dennis’ attack, but Dennis did not attack.

It looks like he tried to stab it, failed, and then retreated.

Dennis took care of me.

“Congratulations. It was a blow that fully felt the servant’s blessing.”

“What do you do when you feel it? I lost.”

“It’s because the body couldn’t adapt to the force. In the same step, I gained about half a step more momentum.”

As Dennis said, my strength was strong.

This fact was especially noticeable when opening and closing the front door or using dishes.

“Do your best.”

“Yes.”

This is why immortals are not good at handling deformed bodies. I don’t know how many times I have to roll it again to get used to it, but it’s just terrible.

“And. I told you to attack a vital point, did I tell you to stab the chest covered by armor?”

“No.”

I won’t give up once.

So, because I wanted to stab my heart, I threw in an unreasonable number.

Even so, I never got stabbed.

“Do it right this time.”

After gathering my courage, I slowly walked forward and held out my dagger.

*

As I tried to catch the dagger with the back of my nose, Dennis’ dagger slid out of the back of my nose and hit my finger.

“You just cut your finger with a hook. It’s my victory.”

This is absurd.

“···How on earth do you react so quickly?”

“Reaction?”

Dennis chuckles.

“Lee, daggers are not used for fighting. It’s a tool for stabbing. From the beginning, you shouldn’t even think about engaging in a power showdown with daggers.”

“I recommended the sword because I knew Lee’s tendencies. The sword has the advantage in terms of power delivered, powerful cuts, and attack range. Basically, the longer a weapon is, the stronger it becomes.”

This is something I heard from Dennis quite often.

“Putting swords together with daggers or fighting head to head is the worst thing in dagger art. It’s enough to be able to handle daggers like this, so wouldn’t it be okay to try martial arts and swords now?”

“Still, the daggers I’ve learned so far are such a waste.”

“You can learn both, right? Rangers carry both short swords, long swords, and bows depending on the situation.”

Dennis’ eyes were full of life.

Judging by the look on his face, it looks like he wants to teach me how to use a long sword somehow. I liked it too.

Because in a place like this, armed force was essential to protect Ilshin.

“Yes. I think Dennis is right.”

“Good! I’ll sharpen a usable wooden sword by tomorrow.”

“Thank you.”

“This is one of my few pleasures, so I’m just happy.”

Dennis smiled and sat down in the tent.

Today’s sparring is over.

·

Something feels awkward.

At this point, there should be that sarcastic voice that always comes out, right? Of course, it would be good not to do it, but I am curious.

I looked towards Yuzu in confusion.

Only then did I understand why there was no sarcastic voice.

Because Jules was among the children.

“Sihyeon. Let’s have breakfast together.”
