Chapter 624 – #126_Desert Night (4)
#624
One.
After a rough conversation with the Mercury Witch, I returned to the jeep and fixed the bed.
Unlike other witches who can sleep or not sleep when they want with a perfect spiritual body, in her case, essential sleep is required.
That is the price of a ‘contract’ for strengthening the normal spiritual body.
It is a desert that is no different from an empty field, let alone a decent accommodation.
Even so, I was worried that sleeping in the car would be too uncomfortable, but it was an ineffective worry.
Fortunately, off-road jeeps were really great.
It’s almost like a bed when you recline the back seat.
I temporarily removed the items piled up in the trunk behind the chair, folded it to the limit, and laid the mattress.
Then, a cot that was a bit narrow for two people but perfect for one person was completed.
I was doing bed maintenance like that.
Siu said.
“Master.”
“Well?”
“Thank you.”
“Did I do something to be grateful for?”
Eloa covers her cheeks in embarrassment at the sudden thanks.
But Siu definitely remembered.
Alice, who, like a very witch, raised a fight against Siwoo, not a fight.
She was talking about the time when Elroa, who did not respond to her disrespect, was coldly angry.
“Really, you were great.”
When I explained the meaning of gratitude again, Master twisted his body as if he was even more embarrassed.
“I was just doing the right thing. Don’t just listen like an idiot and say something.”
How can the duke, who is strict with others, become so shy when the two of them are together like this….
That gap is really lovely.
Perhaps only Siwoo had the privilege of monopolizing her appearance.
“The seats are tight, so I’ll stay in the front passenger’s seat.”
Unlike Eloah, as Siwoo is capable of selective sleep, she gave up a comfortable seat and climbed into the seat in front of her.
At that time.
Teacher who was in the driver’s seat at some point when he moved.
“Wouldn’t you like to go see the stars together?”
“Shouldn’t you be sleeping?”
“I got some sleep on the plane, so I’m still fine. Don’t you have enough time?”
The prophecies did not prescribe a very precise time of appearance.
According to the file Takasho gave me, it’s probably tomorrow evening or night.
She has room for everything she says.
I was born there and saw the desert for the first time.
Even if all you see is sand and sky, the scenery of Mother Nature itself is overflowing with distances to appreciate.
A glass of sake leisurely looking up at the stars.
Isn’t it full of romance?
“Maybe?”
“Then I will move.”
“Isn’t that what you see here?”
“This place is good too, but there are a lot of bonfires and whatnot.”
“Yes Yes.”
At best, it’s all about the dim light from campfires or campsites, but if that’s light pollution, it’s light pollution.
Eloah at the wheel started her car and the two drove through the desert at night.
The desert night was quite cool.
Compared to the daytime, when it easily exceeded the mid-40s, the outside temperature recorded on the thermometer was around 11 degrees.
Thanks to the windshield that blocked the scorching sun and sandy wind during the day, I was able to enjoy moderate coolness.
– Boo woo woo!
Than that
The travel distance is much longer than expected.
“Is there any good spot?”
“What do you mean?”
“Looks like you’ve come a little far.”
It’s been about 5 minutes since she got behind her wheel.
The jeep was still going aimlessly.
“Wouldn’t it be better to see the stars from as far away as possible?”
If it’s Master, then it must be so.
After hearing the explanation, Siwoo nodded roughly.
Finally, she had time for a leisurely conversation, so she asked what she had been curious about.
“Master, by the way, what is a prophecy organ?”
A neutral institution that is managed by one of the old witches, the ‘Witch of Apocalypse’, and assigns apprentice witches so that witches who cannot have children can succeed their generation.
First of all, I know this far.
Eloah also noticed that Siu wasn’t asking such superficial questions.
She too had been ordained by Raffy as her apprentice witch, and she began by recalling her memories of that time.
“The Prophetic Agency…. In other words, it is a lake of encrypted information. It is a unique neutral zone that belongs to this world and does not belong to this world.”
“Like Gehenna?”
“Well…. This is difficult to describe in words.”
But I quickly run out of words.
It is possible to convey the fact as information that thoughts, notions, and threads of destiny are materialized lakes, but in fact, the appearance of the prophecy agency is described differently by each person who encounters it.
The only thing they have in common is that there is a large lake, and in the middle of it there is a huge, unapproachable tower.
“When this is over, how about taking a look around?”
“Can you?”
“Of course. The prophecy agency does not discriminate against any witch. Outcasts, even if it’s a feat, can step into the lake without any restraint.”
“Can you see the future there?”
Eloa nodded her head.
“The moment she remains alone and immerses herself in the lake, countless futures unfold. But most of that information is uninterpretable. Only the permitted prophecies can understand.”
“Then, what is an oracle?”
In fact, it was the crucial question of this question.
What the hell is an oracle that so many witches can come across with that information?
“The oracle is the rarest of the encrypted futures that can be interpreted. The Witches of the School of Numerology, who reside near the Prophecy Institute, sell them for a lot of money. No matter how much I explain it, going to it for yourself will touch your skin. You won’t receive any prophecies because you’re still a long way from succeeding.”
Eloa smiles at her curious pupil as if she is cute, then grabs her steering wheel again and looks in front of her.
Siu didn’t notice, but his expression was quite spleen.
Wouldn’t this have been enough for her?
Elroa spreads her senses and observes the signs around her.
Fortunately for her, there seems to be no witch diligent enough to pursue her night drive.
“This should be fine.”
Still, Eloa pulled her car close to the dunes, hoping for her prudence, and took her brandy, which she loved so much, from her bag.
“Wow, it looks really good from here.”
“Take it slowly. How about a drink?”
“Good. The Buddhist disciple will serve you a drink.”
Except for the sound of the two people talking, the silence settled down to the point of being suffocated.
The desert in the shining moonlight shimmered as if it had been baptized with silver.
To Elroa, this kind of scenery is all too familiar to her before feeling her beauty.
For over 100 years, he tracked the homunculus and his exploits, and about 30% of them were spent in this desert.
She wouldn’t have driven out of her car to see her routine if she had been alone.
In other words, there is only one reason why he is about 10km away from the witches’ camp: to spend a hot night with Siwoo.
She tells him that showing him the stars is a combination of both.
Although Eloah and Siu crossed the priesthood wall and became an official romantic relationship, the frequency with which she had relationships with Siu was significantly lower than that of her other lovers.
She is second only to her twin, who secretly heads for the outpost under the watchful eye of Count Myrnai.
Of course, the moment of being held in his arms is unmatched happiness.
However, a tingling sense of guilt and a sense of remorse for having a friendship with a disciple still remained.
Therefore, in Gehenna, where it could be discovered, she secretly avoided her relationship, and when she did, she always drank until she was drunk.
“Will you wait a moment?”
But isn’t this place in the middle of the desert where you and Siu are alone?
She is in no position to share her love with him in secret.
“Where are you going?”
“Let’s just say it’s a little cool. I’ll just put on some more clothes and come back.”
Elroa, who got rid of Siwoo with her nonchalant performance, rummaged through her suitcase in the back of her jeep.
It was something he had prepared in advance because he remembered being obsessed with bunny girl outfits.
After changing into this costume, she was going to appear in front of him wrapped in a large towel….
“Eww…. Eww….”
Is it because my heart is in too much of a hurry?
When he thinks that Siwoo might suddenly come to visit, he hardly wears a costume.
Even when I wore it before, it took a long time and I got help from Sharon.
Wearing clothes in a space where movement is limited is even more difficult than before.
“This shouldn’t be the case….”
Around the time Eloah was holding on to the leotard and groaning alone.
Left alone, Siwoo walked by jeep later than expected.
If you’re having trouble finding clothes, I thought I’d help… Only.
It itself is as tall as her tire’s diameter is large enough to easily pass Elroa’s waist.
Through the window, which is just right at her eye level, she sees a whitish object moving gently.
“…….”
It was rabbit ears.
Rabbit ear hairband that always stands out.
It is a prop attached to the bunny girl costume she wore during her past harvest festival.
He was Siwoo, who thought it was impossible to go out to a distant place to see the stars out of nowhere, but soon dismissed it as an overexaggerated interpretation.
This is because Master has always been passive.
Most of the time, when Siwoo visited her room, or when drinking and going over to kissing, there were many cases where the flesh overlapped naturally, and there was almost no direct laying of plates like Sharon or Amelia.
I would have thought that such a master would have prepared a costume as well as driving the jeep out with all sorts of excuses to create a situation where the two of us were alone.
A cute yet adorable look.
It seems like you haven’t noticed yet, so you can pretend you don’t know, but naturally, a playfulness flowed.
– Jump!
“…… !”
When Si-Woo opens her car door, Master, who has been adorning herself for a while, turns into a surprised rabbit and looks at Si-Woo.
The only things properly worn were the rabbit ear hairband, the cuffs on both wrists, and the shirt collar with a bow tie.
Her stockings and high heels are not properly put on, she is her naked body.
Master’s naked body, which is much higher than when she was naked, is there.
“Siw! Didn’t I tell you to wait!”
Master hurriedly covered her body with her face turning pink like the color of her hair in an instant, but her arms were barely enough to cover her voluptuous chest and overall bouncy naked body.
The immaculate skin exposed here and there disturbs the eyes.
“Oh, is this an event?”
“This is not like that! I just wore it because I wanted to wear it for the first time in a long time. Come on out!”
She must have known that such a thing could not be a proper excuse.
Even if the stern master like a tiger reacts to his shyness, it only seems like a frightened rabbit squealing.
He probably had no intention of actually stopping Siwoo.
“I’ll go in.”
Even if you get on the back seat that has turned into a cot, you won’t be pushed out.
-Widely!
The sound of a car door closing.
Soon, the off-road jeep, which boasts excellent suspension functions, began to rattle wildly.
