Chirp-Horrrr-

The warm sunlight shining outside the window and the sounds of birds that seem familiar yet unfamiliar.

Are there really different birds living in France than in Korea?

The sound is so refreshing.

“…Hmm.”

Slowly I wake up.

Lee Ho-yeon got up from the soft bed and yawned.

“As expected, the birds of France are unique in their cries.”

“Even though you came to France, your sex drive hasn’t diminished.”

“sorry.”

Hoyeon Lee glanced at Scarlett, who was lying naked next to her.

Pure white skin and curved lines are visible even on top of the blanket.

“You talked as if you were going to sleep while holding hands, but in the end it ended up like this.”

“You also expected it to some extent.”

“I won’t deny it.”

Scarlett is not stupid.

Of course, I came to this room expecting something like this to happen.

The conversation we are having now is like saying good morning.

“Ha… Still, the morning is refreshing. Maybe it’s the foreign air?”

It’s been a long time since I had such a pleasant morning.

There were no terrible nightmares or cold sweats.

Is it because you like the accommodations provided by Iris Guild? Or maybe it’s because I like Scarlett, who I sleep with hugging her.

“Thank goodness it’s France. If it were Korea, I would have been on the verge of death.”

“…Not to that extent.”

Actually, the problem is not France or Korea.

It’s just that I still felt a little uncomfortable.

Well, maybe it’s just me that’s weird.

“Come here, Scarlett.”

I pulled Scarlett’s body closer to shake off the distracting thoughts.

Their eyes meet and they naturally kiss.

A light morning kiss.

The exchange of soft lips and sticky saliva seems to put my mind at ease.

“Umm, you from the morning. Phew….”

“Why? You didn’t like it?”

“It’s not like that… It’s not manners to act like this when you haven’t even been able to brush your teeth.”

“I’m fine. I don’t really smell anything.”

“I’m not okay. Besides, the sweetness lingering in my mouth makes me feel strange.”

If semen is not sweet enough, why is saliva also sweet?

Is this man using magic on a regular basis?

Scarlett stretched, swallowing the sweetness lingering in her mouth.

The blanket fell down, exposing Scarlett’s pure white breasts, but it wasn’t embarrassing since she had already seen everything to see.

“But this isn’t that bad. I think it’s the first time you two are together.”

“… You didn’t intentionally ask to go to France right away, right?”

“No way. I got lucky.”

“Okay, okay.”

Lee Ho-yeon, who was laughing, yawned and got up.

What if there is an ulterior motive? What if there is not? Sometimes even Scarlett has days like that.

While chatting with Scarlett, I turned on my smartwatch and saw a reply to the message I sent yesterday.

After paying attention to the reply, I got up from the bed.

Looking at the morning sunlight outside the window, the Iris Guild must have started normal business as well.

“I guess Ellis hasn’t arrived yet?”

“If the young lady has arrived, wouldn’t you be the first to let us know?”

“but.”

I wonder how far it went and why it took so long to come back.

Seeing as he can’t return right away, it seems like he has no contact network at all.

“First of all… I have to research magic until Ellis comes back.”

“That’s a good idea. Then I guess I should at least carry out a secret mission for the Iris Guild.”

“Is there something like that?”

“I’m just kidding. I’m thinking of renting the Iris Guild’s training ground.”

“It’s not bad. I heard Chiron teaches it so well.”

There must be a reason why the centaur theme hasn’t been cut yet and is stuck with the Iris guild.

They say he gets along well with his guild members, so he will probably get along well with Scarlett as well.

“I’m going to wash up first, so please come out slowly.”

“Yes. Anyway, you can do magic research here.”

After Scarlett went out to wash.

Lee Ho-yeon, fully awake, sat down at the desk.

“Now… magic. It’s magic.”

It may be difficult to create great magic right now, but there are things I have planned for a long time.

These were topics that were so large in scale that they required quite a bit of time.

“My understanding of the area has increased while making Demon Heavenly Palace… so I think I can take on the challenge.”

The Demon Heavenly Palace and the Rune Barrier.

Even if you twist the two just a little, a completely different magic can emerge.

“Time. Or space. I want to touch one of them.”

The momentary phenomenon that occurred during the sparring with Imsol was worth studying, but now I wanted to study a slightly more difficult magic.

Moreover, such phenomena need to be practiced in real life, and now researcher mode is needed.

Lee Ho-yeon’s magic has always surpassed its limits.

For example, the Demon Heavenly Palace, which exercises control over all magical powers.

Magic like emotional amplification that amplifies negative emotions.

It was thanks to this crazy talent that Lee Ho-yeon was able to overcome the strong opponents she had encountered so far.

But time and space are a slightly different story.

Actions that can be performed by ‘God’, not individuals or their surroundings, must be implemented through magic.

“If I’m going to end it the way Macheonggung and Da-eun did, I haven’t even started.”

A magic that can control this world rather than focusing on oneself.

You have to do that to defeat God.

“I don’t know where to start… but let’s get started.”

I really don’t want to control the world itself. All you need is to achieve a similar effect.

And if you work hard for good ideas, something will come out.

Ugh-

A large force field emitted an intangible wave centered around Lee Ho-yeon.

Feel the magic inside Macheonggung with your whole body.

Under the control of magical power, dozens and hundreds of calculations are carried out simultaneously.

I hope we get some results before Ellis comes.

Hoyeon Lee continued to concentrate with her eyes closed.

*

Iris Guild’s 1st team leader’s office.

Irene, who was drinking coffee in the morning sunlight, looked at her smart watch and sighed.

“Hmm. …I didn’t know it would be like this.”

Four days have already passed since Hoyeon Lee spent time at the Iris Guild.

And, Ellis and the guild leader still haven’t arrived.

“I guess something happened. Haha….”

The Emperor of the Night’s intelligence gathering has always been secret.

To avoid leaving room for tracking, we do not establish regular means of contact, and if contact is necessary, we leave a letter at one of the designated points every few days.

Normally, I didn’t worry even if the guild leader didn’t contact me. Because he is such a strong person, no matter where you throw him, he will survive.

But this time, not only was Ellis there, but there was also news to deliver.

Irene was also frustrated because there was no contact at a time like this.

“Isn’t this guy going to meet some strange woman again? My mother will be angry… No, that can’t be possible when I have Ellis.”

Irene looked at the documents piled up on the table and let out a frustrated sigh.

Although I felt frustrated, I couldn’t put off work.

… I’m sure something won’t happen to the Emperor of the Night.

Irene came out of the team leader’s office.

I must participate in today’s meeting as the acting guild leader.

Although it was her mother who held the position of deputy guild leader, it was Irene who held the real power.

“Should I try to make contact from here…? But how can I find my father who has made up his mind to hide…?”

That time when I was walking down the hallway with my head in a complicated state.

I saw Scarlett approaching from the front.

I’ve been staying here for a few days, but this was my first time seeing something like this in the morning.

“Scarlett?”

“Miss Irene. Good morning.”

“Oh, yes. You too.”

She lowered her head slightly with a relaxed expression.

It wouldn’t have been convenient for Scarlett and Lee Ho-yeon if Ellis and the guild leader didn’t arrive right away, right?

Irene felt doubtful, but continued speaking naturally.

“You look comfortable. Are you using the accommodation well?”

“Thanks to you, I am having a comfortable time. Chiron, or rather Wild gladiator, in the training room is also good.”

“Yes. Even if it’s a little strange, my skills are good. That’s right. Is Lee Ho-yeon still stuck in the lab?”

“That’s right. I barely eat and I’m concentrating on my magic.”

“Really…? You take good care of it.”

It was the second day that Lee Ho-yeon and Scarlett stayed at Iris Guild.

Even when Irene went to his room, Lee Ho-yeon was concentrating on his magic research.

‘Still, I guess it’s wrong to say he’s a genius wizard.’

It was just like the rumor about the Imsol wizard that he didn’t even eat when he was concentrating on research.

I feel like I want to check on Lee Ho-yeon’s condition, but since I have no reason to do so, I have no choice but to ask Scarlett.

“It looks like there is no news from you and the guild leader today.”

“… Yes. If I don’t hear from you by today, I plan to look for it myself.”

“It looks like it will be difficult to find the guild leader. I’ll be waiting for good news.”

Nod.

Scarlett bowed her head slightly and headed to the training room.

to be honest.

From her perspective, life wasn’t bad right now.

It was quite fun to concentrate on training for the first time in a long time, and although it is difficult to see Hoyeon Lee’s face, I can still see it a little bit.

It was a bit enjoyable to see a face that was only shown a few times a day.

The problem is that I don’t sleep well, but when I sleep once every two days, I can sleep together.

“I don’t know why he looks so comfortable.”

i envy you.

Irene, who was looking at Scarlett’s back, quenched her appetite and headed to the conference room.

*

Inside a dark room.

I don’t know if it’s day or night.

I don’t know if I’m hungry or thirsty, but I feel a little uncomfortable.

Still, I need to end my worries now.

“… Stop time. Or, turn it back?”

The result of several days of thinking and testing.

The magic strands were geared toward messing with time.

In particular, the memory of treating Scarlett with the limit of the rune barrier was helpful.

The principle of slowing down time inside the barrier is to give ‘slowdown’ to all magical power.

By overlapping them again and again, time passed at a slow pace.

“But the problem is how to reproduce it.”

It’s okay to slow down time inside the rune barrier.

But what if there is no rune barrier? Or what if it is an area that cannot be covered by a rune barrier?

There were still too many things to fix.

“I guess I’ll have to think about it a little more.”

Since I started studying magic and slept twice, it must have been about three or four days.

It was a little strange that there was still no news from Ellis.

And I wonder if I’m not going back to Korea… I couldn’t stop researching magic now.

“It’s so low that it almost seems like it won’t be caught. Write….”

For the first time in a long time, the wizard’s blood is boiling.

I was the one who cursed Imsol so much for not eating or drinking for a week, but this is how all wizards end up.

If Scarlett hadn’t taken care of him, he might have starved to death or died from overwork.

“You may be thinking too hard about the concept of turning back time. In a slightly different way. If you fool this entire space….”

Lee Ho-yeon, who had already forgotten his hunger, once again unleashed his magic power.
