“uh… … . “I’m going to leave now, so you can talk comfortably.”
I gently removed Dazar’s arm that was still wrapped around my shoulder. She quickly walked away from him.
No, more accurately, I got away from those two.
It’s obvious that the shrimp’s back will explode in the whale fight, but there’s no need to get caught between the two.
I smiled haha and slowly backed away from them… …
“Where are you going?”
… … But why is this in-law next to me?
In the blink of an eye, Dazar was next to me and gently grabbed my sleeve. I tried to get out quickly, but the strength holding my sleeve was unusual.
I thought I might be able to get out of here by using my iron arm. If I did that, there was a risk that my thin sleeves would be torn off, so I whispered softly while being held hostage.
“Where are you going? Let go of this. “I’m really busy right now.”
“Is that more important than me?”
Like an abandoned puppy, Dazar lowered his head slightly and let out a strange sound.
Why is this person like this all of a sudden?
Of course it’s more important than you.
He said I should go back quickly and wash my feet and nose.
“Of course it’s important… … .”
“The time we spent together in Ruben’s Tower was nothing to you?”
“… … ?”
“I thought I showed my all. But you’re going to leave me alone? “We are now one body.”
yes? One body?
What kind of bullshit is this?
I think we were growling at each other just a few minutes ago. What is one body?
It’s indescribably absurd, and my face is gradually rotting away.
Dazar whispered.
“What are you doing? Don’t argue with me. Did you forget that you can’t enter Ruben’s Tower except for Siaster Street? But you just came out of Ruben’s Tower. And Moroccanil saw that too.”
“… … ah.”
“We don’t want Moroccanil to notice anything strange, so let’s just adjust the rhythm and leave the place.”
Seeing him say this, it seems like Dazar’s quarrel with Moroccanil earlier was intentional.
After thinking about it like that, I felt a little strange.
It really feels like we’re in the same boat. Then, suddenly, I felt that the relationship between him and me was too close. They are clinging to each other almost like a hug.
“… … But do we really have to pretend to be this friendly?”
“We’re close.”
What did Dazar eat wrong?
“I’m just kidding. That guy seems to have been a bit sensitive to you since last time. “I think this method will work well.”
As Dazar said, this method was very effective. Moroccanil approached me and grabbed my other sleeve in his hand.
I thought he must have been angry at Dazar’s teasing-like provocation, but the expression on Moroccanil’s face was closer to anxiety than that.
“What was the conversation inside?”
“yes? No, well… … .”
I can’t tell you that.
I smiled awkwardly and rolled my eyes. Both arms being held by the two men felt very uncomfortable.
“I just didn’t say much. uh… … A story about Axion’s future… … degree? Right, Dazar?”
“that’s right. It did.”
It wasn’t wrong.
“Anyway, we are currently developing food in Siasterga and receiving great help from Dazar. Moreover, since both of us are raising children, we also share constructive concerns about parenting… … .”
“… … Is that so?”
I don’t know why, but Morokanil seemed a little relieved. He tilts his head, not knowing where the relief came from.
“Puetch!”
There was a coughing sound out of nowhere.
I wondered who would cough in such a critical situation where a shrimp fight was about to explode in a whale fight.
“… … what. Are you okay?”
“this. “It’s been raining for too long.”
… … It was me.
Uh, um.
When I thought about it, rain was pouring from the sky. The three of us were getting hit by the rain with our whole bodies.
Even though I had iron arms and iron legs and a special body that was impervious to barriers, I guess I couldn’t escape the cold.
‘Why does it suddenly feel a bit cold?’
The moment I recognized the cold, my body began to tremble little by little. The two men immediately noticed that my body was shaking and spoke at the same time.
“Let’s go back to the villa first.”
“We need to move to a warm place quickly.”
Thanks to the two people who somehow agreed, I was soon lying on my bed in the villa.
Axion was in a deep sleep, unaware that his mother was sick. I fell asleep as if I had fainted. The confrontation between the two ended in vain.
After that day, I lay in bed at the villa and suffered for a whole week.
It may have been because of the rain that day that I felt sick, but I think the relief of tension during that time also played a role.
Until now, I have been anxious about whether Axion is Ruben or not. The tension seemed to have eased as the conclusion was ‘Ruben is right.’
“crying. Celia Jukdi maa.”
“Abubu!”
Thanks to you, I received tearful concerns from children,
“Does it hurt a lot?”
I could also hear Dazar’s worried voice,
“I’m sorry. Because of my greed… … .”
I also received an apology from Moroccanil, who came unexpectedly late at night.
When I finally got better and jumped out of bed, my ‘period of rest’ was almost over.
As soon as I woke up, we finished our family trip and returned to Siasterga. Moroccanil followed along like goldfish poop.
* * *
Dazar raised his eyebrows as he looked at the man in front of him.
“what?”
He was sitting on the window sill where he usually sat, looking at the garden where the snow was melting. I don’t know if it was because I was telling a secret that I had never told anyone before, or because someone who had been sick for a week was feeling better.
Just a moment ago, I felt like I was floating in the air, but in an instant, I plummeted. It’s all because of this guy.
“I said I would end my surveillance of you.”
“… … why?”
“Because you are not a follower of Ruben.”
That’s what I originally knew.
Dazar crossed his arms.
“Of course I knew that I was not a follower of Ruben. Not that. “What has happened to you that suddenly makes you want to stop harassing me?”
Didn’t he deliberately pose as a watchdog to harass me? Why do you suddenly want to quit my surveillance role? There was something strange about it.
Then Moroccanil slightly narrowed his purple eyes and said.
“If you want me to continue as a surveillance officer, I can do that.”
Ugh. I don’t like that.
“… … no. Suddenly I wasn’t curious at all. I’m glad you’re leaving my house now. “I believe you will report well to His Majesty.”
“Just because I quit my job as a guard doesn’t mean I’m leaving here.”
You’re not saying you’re leaving here?
Dazar narrowed his eyes as if wondering what that meant.
“It means quitting the surveillance role. “I feel like this role itself places limitations on me.”
“… … .”
So, you’re continuing to harass me.
Dazar wrinkled his face in annoyance.
Well, if this guy doesn’t go out, you can just let him go out.
Dazar turned his head and looked out the window again, as if he didn’t want to see him.
I didn’t want this moment to be interrupted by this guy.
“okay. Okay, let’s go.”
He was busy. In preparation for the upcoming spring. Even though the only thing I could do to prepare was to look forward to the gradually approaching spring days.
Spring was ‘her’ favorite season.
So Dazar also liked this season the most.
The memories of ‘her’ did not remain in Dazar’s mind much. Every single memory of her, the few he had, was truly precious to him.
‘Look at this, Dazar. Doesn’t this flower somehow resemble you? I usually hide my insides shyly, but when the moon rises, I show them off. This flower must like the moon.’
Then he said, gently stroking the blooming petals.
‘And it’s so pretty and lovely inside. Like you.’
She added that… … She was probably smiling.
As I was idly drawing her, I felt that Morokanil was still not leaving his room.
Dazar quirked an eyebrow.
“what? Is there anything else you can say? It would be better if we didn’t see each other. “Why don’t you get out now?”
“… … .”
Moroccanil did not look shaken at all by Dazar’s sarcasm. The way he stood expressionless and stared at Dazar seemed like he had something to say.
Only after Dazar narrowed his eyes and adjusted his posture did Morokhanil open his lips.
“… … Have you by any chance found any trace of ‘her’ in this life?”
Dazar’s eyes changed in an instant when he heard those words. The moment I felt that the golden eyes were filled with life, the air in the room vibrated.
Moroccanil tried to avoid it, saying “oops”, but it was already too late.
