“Something to say just the two of you? What’s the story?”

Yooseong came into the room. Seris sat down on the bed (her remaining legs were all broken and laid flat) and tried to calm her pounding heart.

‘are you okay. ‘I’ve prepared everything I need to say.’

For the past two days, Seris wandered around and asked adults for advice. Thanks to this, I was able to obtain quite a bit of information about marriage and prepare everything I needed to say.

Didn’t Yoosung say that before?

If you get tired, you will win every battle.

Ceris was ready and Meteor was not. She planned to win the marriage with a surprise attack.

‘I wonder if it’s really necessary to do this…’

Even if it didn’t go this far, Yoosung might have accepted her marriage proposal.

No, I would have accepted it.

It’s already been half a year since we lived under the same roof. In the meantime, we tried to reconcile even the parts that didn’t fit together, and now that our lifestyles have become similar, we are living like one family.

‘uh..? wait for a sec. ‘How is this different from being married?’

When I think about it, that’s right.

Marriage means a loving man and woman living together under one roof.

Yoo-seong and her were in love, already living under the same roof, and their lives were intertwined.

It turned out that she was already married!

In that case, what you are doing now is just a formal act of signing a contract to show to others. There was no reason to be nervous from the beginning. My heart, which had been pounding just a moment ago, calmed down as if it were a lie. With a calm mind, I looked at Yoosung sitting next to me.

‘…flirt.’

As soon as I had some peace of mind, disappointment came over me.

No matter how tired you are of Netorase, how can you cheat on her?

Where else can there be a wise mother and good wife like her?

‘See you after you get married.’

Because every time you cheat, I’ll give you a huge rip-off.

Hmm, Seris cleared her throat and smiled at Yoosung, the most beautiful smile in the world. He said in a refreshing voice.

“Yuseong, it’s been quite a while since we lived together, right?”

“Huh? Oh, right?”

“We are also in love.”

Seris gently placed her right hand on the back of Yoosung’s hand. He put his fingers together, made a clasp, and leaned his head on Yoosung’s shoulder.

“That’s what I was thinking… Isn’t it time for us to get married?”

He flinched and Yoosung’s shoulders trembled.

Yes, it was a bit sudden so it’s surprising.

Seris decided to wait for him to get over his shock. But it was no use just waiting, so she told me what she had found out.

“Well, I’m talking about having two wives. After looking into it, it was possible. Do I have to pay more taxes? Thanks to that, merchants also had multiple wives.”

“…”

“If you want to get married, you have to pay marriage tax. The amount was a lot more than I thought. Also, after I get married, I will have to change my house to a larger place… It will cost me a lot of money. But you can’t live outside the city because of money…”

“Seris.”

“First of all, we earn hard money. Although adventurer work is dangerous, the income is good, so I earn a lot and save hard to save money. And with the money I saved, I bought a two-story house! I could open a store on the first floor and use the second floor as a home. Hehe, I’m looking forward to it. When I return home after working hard at the store, the children…”

“Seris.”

Cerise closed her eyes and imagined married life.

I opened my eyes in surprise at Yooseong’s call.

“Ah… I’m sorry, Yoosung. I guess I was too engrossed in it to hear it. Hehe.”

Seris smiled brightly and looked at the shooting star. However, Yoosung’s expression showed embarrassment.

“Ceris, I think it’s too early to get married.”

“…Yes?”

At his words, Cerise’s excitement cooled. He asked back with a pale complexion.

“Well, what does that mean? It seems early…”

“It’s literally like that. Marriage is a choice that must be made carefully. I’m not going to make a hasty decision like this.”

“Yeah, but we lived together for half a year… half a year. Then we are already like a couple…”

“It’s only been half a year. Seris, there are many couples in the world who live together for several years.”

It’s a story about the world he lived in.

marriage.

To be honest, I didn’t think the shooting star was bad, even though it was brief. That’s because he loves Seris and Kara and wants to be together in the future. However, after listening to Cerise talk about her married life, I had no choice but to change my mind.

Cerise wanted a stable and warm married life.

On the other hand, Yoosung has a goal to achieve.

The goal is to deal with the entity called the Demon King and obtain the right to wish.

Right now, I am wandering due to lack of information and little strength, but I have never once given up. It’s not like I can say I want to give up.

That’s why I rejected her marriage proposal.

Seris, who did not know his feelings, fell into shock and fear.

“Just barely..?”

Just barely.

How can you add a modifier like that?

The half year she spent with Yoosung was like her entire life…

Was it nothing to him?

‘Well, now that I think about it…’

Yoosung said just now. There are many couples who live together for several years. When Yoosung had sex with Seris and Kara for the first time, he led them very skillfully.

As if he was very experienced.

That means that Yoosung had a lover even before the Seris sisters.

Lovers who lived together like Cerise and Kara.

And he is now living with Seris and Kara.

Rattling.

When the thought reached that point, Seris shivered as if she had been hit with cold water. I wanted to stop, but the anxiety and fear spreading throughout my body wouldn’t let me.

‘No… we are different from those women.’

I’ve never seen or heard of those women… but it’s different anyway. It’s different.

“Seris, let’s get married a little later. Huh?”

“Is it because of Amy?”

“…What?”

“Amy, is it because of that woman?”

He is different from the women of Yoo Seong’s past. Seris decided to believe that, but there was one problem.

Amy.

Han Yu-seong’s current partner.

It may not happen, but you never know, just in case.

“Why does his name suddenly appear?”

Yoosung frowned.

Seris debated whether or not to tell him that she knew about his affair. Then in the end I decided not to tell.

He pursed his lips and then spit out another word.

“Don’t go to Amy.”

“No…”

“I’m prettier than Amy. Your breasts and butt are bigger. So don’t like her. There’s no reason to like it, right?”

Seris spoke as if stating an obvious fact.

“So… since you look better than Amy, don’t be nice to her?”

“Yes.”

Yoosung’s eyebrows twitched at his answer without hesitation, but Seris did not notice. Yoosung asked again.

“Cerys, are you saying that Amy is less pretty than you and therefore not worth caring about? Because I look bad?”

“Yes.”

Seris nodded her head loudly.

It may have been a bit harsh, but in times like this, you have to be strong.

Don’t let Yooseong think about anything else!

But it’s strange. Yoosung’s expression started to get worse.

“If you say it right, are you dating me just based on my face? If a guy who is more handsome than me shows up later, will I date him?”

“…Yes?”

Seris was quite embarrassed by Yoosung’s irritated words.

Why does it sound like that?

That wasn’t what Seris wanted to say. She just meant that she was the prettiest, so please only look at her…

Embarrassed, she tried to make an excuse.

That’s not what I meant. I don’t love you because of your face. I love you because you are who I am, and no matter who comes, no one will be able to change this feeling.

However, I was so embarrassed that my mouth and tongue were twisted, words could not come out properly, and the words I stuttered could not form sentences.

Yoosung’s expression changed from cold to cold, no matter how he interpreted that appearance.

…It was a sight that Seris never wanted to see.

Yoosung stood up from his seat.

“Let’s talk later. It seems a little difficult right now.”

“Now, wait a minute!”

Seris grabbed Yoosung’s arm as he was about to leave. For some reason, I felt like I shouldn’t send it like this. The moment he leaves, his feelings for her may leave as well.

“It’s not like that. No. I only have Yoosung. Trust me…”

Am I completely sick of her squeamishness? Yoosung frowned and swung his arm to swat her away.

“Kya!”

Cerys was shaken and fell down on the bed. Was the meteor’s power this strong? Even though Seris was wondering that, when she saw him turning his back to leave, she realized that it wasn’t important now.

I crawled over and this time grabbed him by the leg of his pants.

“Yuseong, listen to me. Mr. Yoosung..!”

Yoosung looked down at Seris. He frowned and at the same time let out a sigh of resignation.

“Put this away.”

“Yes, yes?”

“Let go.”

At his cold voice, Seris said, “Uh-huh…” but then let go. Yoosung adjusted his saggy pants and clicked his tongue as if displeased.

“Seris, what’s really wrong with you? How long are you going to show me the bottom like that?”

“Yu, Yoosung, why are you doing this… If this is a joke, I’m scared, so stop…”

“Do you think I’m joking? Ha, really… no, that’s enough. I’m an asshole for trying to have a rational conversation with a child who thinks like an idiot.”

“Uh, huh? Where are you going, Yoosung? Don’t go…”

“Don’t follow me.”

Yoosung looked back and said. Seris, who was trying to chase him, froze in shock.

“Yuseong… Mr.?”

“I don’t know why I’ve been dating a guy like you until now. Let’s stop now.”

“Stop it..? Yes, are you Netora? all right. If Yoosung wants it, right now…”

“No.”

Yooseong interrupted Seris. He continued speaking in an extremely cold voice.

“Let’s end our relationship. From now on, don’t pretend to know anything. Don’t even look for it.”

“Huh? uh?! Well, what does that mean? Mr. Yoosung. Mr. Yoosung!”

Despite Seris’ earnest cry, Yoosung did not turn around. He walked towards the door as if he was completely fed up and that everything was going well.

Seeing that unhesitating back, Seris despaired.

This isn’t it.

I didn’t want this.

Where did it go wrong? Can it be restored to its original state?

Rather, where is Yoosung going now?

…Surely Amy?

Are you leaving me and going to Amy?

Pop.

I heard the sound of something breaking. Seris stood up with cold eyes. and…

“Ugh, wow!!!”

I rushed towards Yooseong. Yoosung was unable to respond to her sudden surprise attack and fell down. Seris climbed on top of him.

“Se, Seris, what are you doing… wow..!”

She restrained Yoosung’s arms with her legs and strangled him with both hands.

“I can’t eat it… I can’t eat it…! How good have I been to Yoosung? How much I like Yoosung!”

Grumbling.

Tears flowed down her cheeks and fell down onto Yoosung’s face.

“You bastard… Die… Die… Die and go to hell… Ah?”

Seris, who had been spitting out curses while contorting her face, realized something from her words and her expression became bright.

“So, you go to hell when you die? No one bothers you in hell, right? No one would want to flirt with Yoosung, right?”

“Keueeek…”

“We die together. When you die, go to hell and live happily ever after!”

Seris tightened her grip on Yoosung’s neck even more. At that time, the door suddenly opened.

When I look up, I see Kara’s shocked face.

“Sister, what are you doing now..?”

“Ah, Kara! I almost forgot about you. Please wait a moment? After I kill Yoosung, I’ll kill you too!”

“What, what? What kind of crazy things are you talking about now..?”

“Yeah…”

Yoosung looked at Kara as if asking for help. However, those eyes soon became cloudy.

“Ah, he’s finally dead.”

“Die…? brother..? Ah…?”

Kara flopped down on the floor as if she couldn’t believe it. She looked at the shooting star with trembling eyes. Seris pushed Kara away. I got on top of Kara who had fallen.

“Sister, are you crazy?! What are you doing now..!?”

“Kara, I’m sorry. All this time, my sister was thinking wrong. Just being together is enough, but being greedy… I won’t be that greedy in hell. Are you sorry?”

Kara, who was shaking, went limp. Seris smiled brightly and moved Yoosung and Kara’s bodies to the center of the room. And then he lay down next to Yoosung and strangled himself.

My vision became blurred little by little, along with the pain of my throat being compressed and my breathing becoming suffocating. Seris turned her head and looked at the dead Yoosung and Kara happily.

Ah… I hope you can be happy in hell.

My vision went dark.

…

“Hkiyayaaaa!!”

Cerise lifted the blanket and raised her upper body. Gasp. He breathed harshly and touched his body as if he was beating on it.

‘Are you alive…?’

How are you alive? He was obviously strangled to death?

Seris turned her head and looked around. A bed without legs, a dark space, even worn-out walls. This was the room where she slept.

‘It was a dream…’

Seris breathed a sigh of relief. Yeah, that can’t be reality. Does it even make sense to die by strangling oneself in the first place? Also, she kills Yoo-seong just because she was abandoned? It makes no sense at all. I would rather go to him every day, hold on to my pants, and wail loudly.

‘I have all sorts of strange dreams.’

It seems like he was anxious at the thought of bringing up the topic of marriage.

…huh?

‘It’s not. You brought up the marriage topic tonight.’

what. How much is reality and how much is a dream? In an instant, my head became confused.

Cerys whimpered and then went limp. I don’t know. I need to calm down first. To do that, you have to be held in Yoosung’s arms.

I slowly lay back and turned to the side. I saw Kara sleeping, drooling.

“…?”

what.

Shouldn’t the collar be visible in this position?

I stretched out my hand. I touched Kara’s soft cheek. There is no one between her and Kara that should be there. And Seris realized the meaning.

Yoosung went to see Amy again.

That too, on the night Cerise brought up the topic of marriage.

“Ha.. Haha…”

Cerise’s eyes sank deeper and darker than ever before.

She got up from bed, put on her armor, grabbed her sword and shield, and went outside.

It was a real sword, not a wooden sword.
