Chapter 271 – Carina (2)
Rain pours through the window
Karina ran her golden hair through the back of her ear.
On a rainy day, her hair gets tangled up. It used to be all that bothered her – but now she’s somehow bothered by her hair and runs her fingers through it.
She glanced at Seo-jun’s back as he drew the curtains.
Chow- Chow-
Thick blackout curtains completely block out the pale sunlight.
There was now no light source in the room except for a scarlet lantern. If you turn that off too—the two of you will be trapped in total darkness.
What am I thinking about… Karina shook her head excitedly.
When Seo-joon looked back at her – she met her eyes and quickly spit out anything.
“…Unexpectedly, you have a lot of magic knowledge. I guess she was interested in magic?”
“Ah···. Not a lot, but a little.”
Hehe-
Karina let go of her snort, and with a nonchalant face—she instructed him to prepare for her experiment.
From round and cylindrical beakers to triangular beakers, rubber tubes, and even the location of the lamp to boil water, she does everything perfectly as instructed. She does as she pleases without a single inch of error.
She even seemed to know already—even without her directing, she lined up the reagent spoons by size in front of her.
“… Well, that’s fine.”
Karina showed a puzzled look that was not the answer.
It must have been the first time-, it must have been a mercenary rolling on the street-. I wondered how it could be so perfect.
The angle and the position -. It was an impeccable arrangement even for her, who is fussy enough to be considered hysterical.
For the first time, Karina proceeded with her experiment without any indication from her assistant.
When I started researching – time passed quickly again.
“One tablespoon of reagent B-21 in a beaker.”
“Yes.”
“Shake moderately only five times, do not stir.”
“Yes.”
Seo-joon did what she told her to do without a single error.
Even without saying a word, the colonel brought herbs and tools for the next use. Karina felt as if her own body had been stretched in two.
Her words gradually dwindled, and soon the only sound in the lab was the sound of the two people breathing and bubbling reagents boiling.
Whoa – I blew on the amp to turn off the light, and waited for the reagent to cool down.
It is complete…
Karina wiggled the blue reagent in her vial. No bubbles – perfect.
Of course, this is not the end. Whether or not this reagent would be useful in her experiment was yet to be seen. If ineffective – the reagent is discarded.
“Is that a reagent? It smells good.”
Oops-
Seo-joon came close to her. The smell of her strange man, the warmth of her wing bones, the feel of his firm chest made her hand shake in dismay – and a few drops flowed over her fingers.
Aww…!
Seo-jun snatched the reagent from her hand. He put it on the table and looked at Karina’s fingers.
“What, what are you doing…!”
Seo-joon kisses her red-scorched fingers.
Hot. I don’t know if it’s the scalding heat or the man’s lips.
Hook hook – Karina’s breathing quickened.
She has to ask what she’s doing now-, she has to yell at me not to cling to me dirty- but her voice won’t come out.
“Karina? Professor…!”
The door opened with a rattling sound, and Meryl entered.
Her breath, which had stopped, was sucked into her lungs – and Karina suddenly came to her senses.
Jjaaaaak-
Karina’s hand slapped Seo-jun’s cheek.
“Uh, how dirty…!”
After I said that, I felt fortunate. She almost got carried away by the atmosphere.
“Excuse···. In my hometown, they put acupuncture on the sore spot.”
Even when Seo-joon was slapped on the cheek- he smiled lightly as if nothing was wrong.
Meryl, who had just opened the door and entered, stiffened at the sight of the two.
Seo-jun silently sealed the reagent and handed it to Karina.
I didn’t even tell him what to do-, he didn’t move like he was used to it.
There was no room for faults.
Seo-joon cleaned and organized the tools he used to make the reagents.
Then, he said goodbye to Karina, who was standing with her arms crossed, and left the lab.
Even after he left— Karina couldn’t see his face.
Kiki-Tak
“…”
“…That, me, should I go out too?”
Meryl, who opened her mouth and looked at the door where Seo-joon had left, secretly watched Karina’s eyes and hurriedly closed the door and left.
Karina stared at her own red-hot fingers.
My heart was beating wildly.
“`
“Then the meeting ends with this. The schedule for the next plenary meeting will be announced sometime next week.”
At the words of the chairperson, those who were seated stood up one by one.
Audrey Yvette, a 6th-class mage and professor, put the file under his side and stood up.
A man approached him as he was about to leave the meeting room, rubbing his shoulders lightly with his hands because he felt sore around his shoulders.
A man with a thick belly and arctic fox fur around his neck, a bishell. He was the owner of the top bar in Bychel.
He rubbed his broad palms together and opened his mouth with his characteristic licking sound.
“Ah, Professor Audrey. This time, there is a good wine that I have airlifted from the paradise of the stars and moon-Joseph’s estate…”
“It’s okay.”
Audrey shook her head with a light smile, not even listening to him.
“Professor, please don’t…”
Tenacious little boy.
Audrey gently pushed away the lard-greasy-looking pig clinging to her beard and left the conference room.
Seeing her persistently courting her despite knowing that she was definitely a woman with a husband—Audrey was really sick of it.
The reason why I couldn’t openly face it was that the author was also a member of the committee.
The author’s background was considerable. Most of the brothels in the free city of Galatea belonged to him. He raked in money from usury and prostitution. With that money, he bought a seat on the committee.
He was also a man sponsoring a formidable amount of money to the Mage Tower.
Her husband knows that too, so I told her to respond moderately even if that man attacked-but honestly, Audrey would have burned all her beard off if she was like her old personality.
Fire -like personality was a lot harmful after meeting her husband.
“Professor Audrey!”
“Professor is pretty today!”
As I walked in the hallway, the female cadets talked.
Audrey, who has an elegant impression and an explosive body, and who has become more beautiful as if a flower is in full bloom rather than sagging even after giving birth, was popular with both men and women. She was also good at male cadets who sent her flowers or letters.
Her success was rarely as her success as she was socially.
She is a 6th-class mage, and she has a seat on the committee of the free city of Galatea, so it is safe to say that she is one of the most powerful people in the city in name and reality.
Audrey closed her eyes and smiled at her cadets, then hurriedly headed for her research building.
The staff who were working on her personal lab and worked on her document shook their heads.
“Professor, are you coming?”
“Everyone was good?”
A woman approached Audrey and gave a cup of hot steaming up.
Beauty stretched on her blonde hair. In the midst of the eyes of male employees, she glans her straight legs and back.
She was a monica who has been working as an assistant of Audrey for a few days. She was Seo-jun’s colleague, and despite being told she’d only done rough mercenary work, she showed considerable talent for her magic.
Because of her, Audrey had the idea to highly recommend her as her new cadet—but her Monica side declined. She dismissed her as a mercenary – content to learn magic from your shoulder.
It was a pity. Those who walked the road of Mado were always suffering from manpower shortages. Each talent was precious.
Monica in particular, in addition to her talent for magic—her quick head turn—has shown that she quickly mastered even the smallest of tasks.
She was left behind. In many ways.
“As always, thank you. Monica.”
Look, did Audri still didn’t drop in time?
Having her cup, she breathe her breath-bulgogi and caught a teacup. I feel like her hair is clear.
Monica grabbed her documentary and her coat from her and arranged it in her hanger. Audrey seemed to have reduced her fatigue by half after using Monica. It was her thanks to the man who introduced her.
Woo woo-
When I undid the hair tie that tied her hair tight, her hair, black like ebony, fell down to her back and waist. As soon as she took off her shoes that were holding her feet down and sat down in her chair- Monica gently massaged her shoulders.
“Ah… Monica doesn’t have to do this. “
“Are you okay. It’s my job.”
As I know-I know-Audrey’s stiff shoulders, rubbing her shoulders. I feel like her body melts.
In the middle of the middle of the mid-to hear the sound of a smart massage, someone came in.
A man with a good impression with a light brown hair. Mage Tower employee Jacob.
And he was-Audrey’s husband.
