City Of Witches 597

Chapter 597 – #121_I’m Back (5)

#597

One.
“It takes longer than expected.”

Albireo, who said he would bring his twin soon, did not come even after 10 or 15 minutes.

It doesn’t seem like anything special will happen, and it’s troublesome if the road crosses after looking for it for no reason, so Siwoo is calmly sitting in the parlor and waiting.

“The sun is good.”

I sat comfortably and enjoyed the spring sunlight streaming in through the window.
It’s true that the Akula is a great submarine, but this warm sunlight can only be felt from the ground.

By the time drowsiness sets in.
From the other side of the drawing room came the sound of heels being chased.

But there is no crackling sound that should inevitably follow.
If it were twins, the cry of ‘Josu!!!!’ Should have been heard from about 400m ahead.

“Ha… Ha….”

White gray hair that was messed up in a hurry, yet a graceful appearance that did not fade.
I wonder if the countess’s attitude facing her husband who returned from the war without news is like that.

Deneb Zemanai, with surprised rabbit eyes, was there.

It’s been a long time since we’ve been reunited together.
It’s her force majeure, but I don’t know how to deal with her because I’ve been with her so many times that she’s forbidden.

She agreed to go back as if nothing had happened once she got out of the fishbowl, but her heart was very upset, even though she knew it in her head.
It was because the various feminine features that Deneb had shown were still vividly recorded in Siwoo’s mind.

“Hello… ?”

Even so, it seems that he is conscious of it for nothing ifhehesitates.
That’s when I said hello naturally.

“Siwoo-kun!”

Like the lady in the movie, the hem of the pure white dress overflows with modesty and elegance.
Deneb, like her older sister, Albireo, added to her momentum and reached her shins.

Instead, she flew in like a swan and fell into Siwoo’s arms.

“You’re safe…! What a relief…. I’m so glad….”

As in my memory, a soft chest and a slender body that can be hugged with arms.
Tears welling up and looking up, purple eyes.

“De, Mr. Deneb.”

She expected a rough expression of thanks, but did not expect such a violent welcome.
She was taken aback as it was completely unexpected.

Her hands placed neatly on her chest as if treating her precious lover, and her lips licking.
The words that flowed out with the sweet scent of wine in between.

“I missed you….”

Was
I can understand.
In fact, the reason Siu was in danger was to help Deneb escape.
Deneb, who was plagued with guilt, could have said that.

“Really…. I was worried….”

I don’t know if it’s because of the mood, but her long eyelashes curled up as if her white eyes were piled up as her lips moved closer.
If you look at it this far, no matter how you look at it, it’s an act of trying to kiss.

Hopefully not.
Her opponent is Deneb Zemyrna.
There’s no way it wouldn’t be so discriminatory.

It’s just a little intense hug.

“Hey, Miss Deneb. For now, it’s better to step away a little….”

I know you’re happy, and I’m really grateful, but if Albireo finds out about this little girl, she will die.
Moreover, she is at a loss for what to say to the twins.

Only Albireo knew what he had verified with Deneb and the mana charge in the fish tank.

“Ah… !”

Deneb’s eyes flashed open with the sound of gasping.
At the same time, even the eyes that were blurry are bright.
Deneb gets up in a hurry and behaves properly as if he was in a bad situation.

“Mi, I’m sorry.”
“No, thank you for welcoming me.”

He hurriedly pressed his palms to his red cheeks from drunkenness.
But that figure ends here.

It’s clear that he probably doesn’t know about the circumstances of the incident.

“By the way…. I don’t know if you’ve heard….”

Deneb is definitely a small mother-in-law.
Knowing that Siu, who was worried, was actually enjoying a leisurely submarine life, and borrowed the help of Count Gemanai to request citizenship of Rruye, he would raise his twin heart like Albireo.

After chanting inwardly, “Goodbye to my sweet little mother-in-law.”

“… It happened like this.”

With a terrible feeling of confession, I confess quietly.

“I see. Anything I can help with…. I have to help.”
“Yes?”

But again, a totally unexpected reaction came back.
Deneb was neither angry nor kicked in the shin.

“Aren’t you angry?”
“Should I be angry… ?”

On the contrary, Deneb asked.

“That…. In fact, he lived comfortably, and he even brought him?”
“I didn’t know what would happen until Siwoo-kun let me escape and I was captured by the Witch of the Deep. Siwoo assumed the worst outcome and acted.”

That’s it.
At that time, Leruye was very terrifying, and I didn’t know that he would be so innocent.

“What I am grateful for is Siwoo-kun’s heart at that time. It’s distasteful that he brought in a new girl in the midst of this, but…. Instead, take good care of her twins. Never neglect. Of course, you know that it is absolutely not okay to damage the vessel by acting without restraint, right?”
“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”

Surprisingly, Deneb’s scolding, not scolding, ended at the level of a scolding.
Does this mean that the strong bond that came from comradeship overcoming hardships together?

It is also a moment to be moved for a while.

“…….”
“…….”

Surprisingly, there was no words to share with each other, and an awkward air current flowed.
Of course, communication with Deneb so far has been done through a combination of Deneb roasting beans like roasting beans and Siu getting hit on the shin while flustered.

As long as Deneb no longer longs for Siu, it is a huge departure from the usual conversation pattern.
It’s good, because if you repeat the words “It’s okay” A couple of times, it becomes a stiff conversation.

“Siwoo-kun.”
“Yes.”

At that time, Deneb, who was standing still, hesitated and opened his mouth.
It’s been a while since then, as if choosing her words, Deneb shuts her mouth and shows her wandering gaze.

“Is it okay if I ask you just one question? It might be a little personal question.”
“Yes, as much as you like.”

She answered lightly, but after seeing Deneb’s body movements, she got a little nervous.
A gesture of unknowingly arranging her hair on the side and tucking it behind her ear.
Eyes drenched in delusion lingering from below.

“That….”

That’s what little mother-in-law does when she’s very modest and embarrassing.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it a few times.

I’m really worried about what the hell you’re asking.

“… How much is Siwoo-kun’s sexual desire?”
“Go, why did you do that all of a sudden?”
“I don’t think anything strange! Who do you think I am! He said he just brought a new girl this time…. It was because I was curious about how hungry he must have been.”
“I’m sorry about that, but….”
“And since it’s an important question, I want you to answer honestly.”
“Well….”

I was hesitant to answer because I had never been asked such a direct question before.
Sexual desire?
When he smells his hair, he is unlimited, but at normal times, he is at the level of an ordinary adult man.

But when you think about why you are asking this question and whether it is good to answer honestly.
Deneb decided first.

“Are you sure it’s not enough?”
“Yes?”
“Even though there are so many lovers around, it’s not enough, so I keep taking them…. Is not it?”

It just happened that it was meant to be, and it wasn’t because of sexual desire.
However, Deneb was already half-assured.
It was because Siwoo continued talking to himself without any time to refute.

“I wonder if it would be meaningful to criticize Siwoo-kun for his frivolous wanderings with women.”
“That is really disrespectful.”
“No, I’m not trying to scold you. A conversation we had before…. Do you remember?”
“You mean it’s a fight?”
“Before entering the fish tank.”

The time when Deneb gave her cognac-making lessons at her twin’s outpost?

“Did I tell you then? It seems that one verification is not enough.”
“Yes… Did you?”

She looked at it, and she said that.
It was a matter that was not naturally discussed as she had to share a relationship with Deneb right away.

Deneb’s face, which she said the other day, ‘wouldn’t it be trouble if I didn’t check it thoroughly double-triplely?’, Plays in her head.

“…….”

Deneb’s cheeks were burning like raspberries while she was talking, probably not just because of her drunkenness and the warm sunlight.

There were many changes in thoughts and situations.

I know that his disposition is good.
From her pointless slavery, she risked her life twice for her twins, and after going out to her world, she embarked on public subjugation that she did not have to get involved in.

Doesn’t she apply for a courtesy to the public just because her friend was taken away?
He’s infinitely petite, but he’s always been the one who takes risks for others, not for himself.

Still, he was a son-in-law who couldn’t help but hate him.
It’s not enough to have the twins who wouldn’t hurt even if you put them in their eyes, and there are always women around them.
Moreover, in the midst of verification, he made such an ugly appearance visible and even left a habit.

He couldn’t see unless he looked closely.

However, in the fishbowl, Siwoo was not just a son-in-law.
He was the strongest supporter than anyone else, and even went so far as to be captured by the Witch of the Deep instead of Deneb.

For Deneb, who had been so cruel.

Deneb, who was getting tired day by day in the fish tank where his life and death could not be guaranteed, began to rely on Siu more and more, and eventually crossed the line due to Deneb’s temptation.

After coming out alone, he stayed up all night covered in self-loathing and guilt.

Every time I saw the twins who didn’t resent Deneb, I felt so sorry.

When he thought of Si-woo, who had been treated with such care, but was unaware of his life and death, it was as if he was dealing with his missing husband, and he could not bear it because he hated himself for having such feelings for his son-in-law, not anyone else.

And on the day his safety was confirmed, Deneb realized.

The fact that there are emotions in the world that no matter how hard you try, you can’t shake them off.
The fact that there is an embrace that I want to hold even while making such cowardly excuses.

So let’s play the fool just one more time.

Wish you drunkenness
With the excuse that Deneb will indulge her lust for the safety of the twins until they succeed.
As an excuse to go through a thorough verification of the relationship that is left behind as a bonus.

“So….”

If he is rejected here or he shows trouble, he immediately laughs it off as a test for his son-in-law….

“I fulfilled Siu-kun’s desire instead….”
“I’m Joe Suni!!!”
“Wow! It’s an assistant! Assistant!”

However, Deneb’s words did not reach him.

“Odile! Mr. Odette!”

The twins who found Si-woo rushed to him and held him in his arms.
Seeing the twins cradled in his arms like puppies meeting their owner, Deneb put his words together.

Seeing the twins shed tears of relief and laughter of joy as if all the depression had been washed away, I felt the thorn of sin that pierced my heart again.

Siwoo looks at Deneb in trouble as he hugs the twins, who jump in and rub their cheeks and shower kisses.

“Deneb-sama, what were you trying to say?”

It is also impossible.
Deneb gave up his last regrets.

“It’s nothing.”

Even if you have feelings that you can’t shake off no matter how hard you try, you don’t have to express them.
Sometimes you have to keep it in your heart and silently turn away.

“Have a good time. Pranksters! If you do something stern, you will get scolded!”
“”Yes! Master!”

It’s been such a long life, but there are still things to learn.

Deneb gave a slight smile and vacated the seat for the three of them.
