Chapter 124 – Episode 123. Four Days Time
[Summary of episode 19: The two had sex.]
*
“Today… Few days… It was.”
With trembling legs, she managed to get under the bed, and Astrid picked up her clothes.
Even with that simple and simple gesture, her arms trembled, and she picked up the sports bra after picking it up and missing it several times.
“… Is it over?”
“Hey, Your Highness. No matter how much it is, you know that it’s been a few days now, and you said that… “
If you look at your smartphone, which is incontinent here and there, it will be four days.
Four days have passed.
For four days, the two did not step out of the house.
I didn’t even get out of bed, let alone get out of the house.
As for getting out of bed, when the meal was delivered, Leopold took it, put it on the table, brought it, and ate it on the bed, so this was actually Astrid’s first time out of bed for these four days.
“No, what the hell, he’s not even an adolescent boy, so what… “
He was about to say that he didn’t know what sex drive was so strong, but Astrid swallowed it hastily.
Leopold’s gaze was not serious, and it felt like he was about to run into it again, so Astrid hurriedly ran into the bathroom and locked the door.
Fortunately, there was no sound of knocking on the door, so Astrid stood for a while receiving the hot water that started pouring out after turning on the shower.
As the hot water warmed my whole body, it was only then that I felt that my body belonged to me.
My whole body hurts.
During these four days, Astrid’s body did not belong to her.
It feels like my whole body is being squeezed, and sometimes it’s being grabbed without mercy…
‘No, no… It’s okay. Stop thinking… ‘
Ugh.
“So, isn’t it time to go back soon?”
Today’s lunch was jjambbong.
Slowly, the bank balance is at the bottom.
It was natural since he ate delivery food for every meal for four days, but Leopold didn’t seem to be thinking about going back.
“I have to go back. But there are other things that need to be done first.”
“What should I do?”
Astrid gulped down the jjamppong soup and stared at Leopold.
What does he have to do in this world?
I didn’t understand him when he said that he had work to do when he didn’t even know anyone.
“Astrid, how do I find out more about this advanced technology in your world?”
“Technology?”
At first, Leopold, who was ready to spit fire out of his mouth as soon as he ate the spicy jjamppong, now eats the jjambbong soup well.
Astrid, who stared at Leopold as he gulped down the champong soup with exclamations of exclamation, seemed to have come up with something soon.
“Ah, you mean cars or something like that.”
“Yes, a horseless carriage or something… Things like that.”
“That… “
Even so, automobiles are the darlings of modern metal technology.
It is widely scattered on the streets, so everyone doesn’t think it’s a big deal, but as you can see, there are not many manufacturers that directly produce cars.
“Of course, I don’t think you can make it right away in Einhafen. However, if you can get even the basics, the foundation of your research… No, it means that a change in thinking that no one would have thought of would be possible.”
“Hmm… “
If you search your smartphone, you might find it.
But this is just a dream anyway, and there’s no way I can take it with me just because I print out blueprints or papers.
“Can’t you put it in your head and go?”
He was a strange prince in many ways, Astrid put it back into his head.

“How about it, are you thinking about releasing the divine protection now?”
Astein looked rather disappointed.
There were clear traces of arrowheads brushing through it here and there, and bloodstains could be seen in places where the long collar was torn.
The flying arrows were incomparable in their sophistication, and Astain had already had to roll on the floor unsightly several times.
It’s such a pity that he didn’t get blessings for battle.
Astrid von Mitterien.
When it was young, when I didn’t know anything, I should have taken the protection in advance.
It was my mistake to waste time waiting for it to ripen.
—Already, it’s a belated regret.
A green-haired beauty walked in front of him, twitching her ears.
With every step he took, the sound of his heels echoed faintly in the cavity.
“I’m not an elf, but I’m not a human either. What are you? What do you keep disturbing me for?”
Despite Astein’s voice that seemed to be overcome with evil, Erania was not particularly agitated.
Rather, she scratched her head with the arrowhead she held in her hand, and replied as if it didn’t matter.
“Hey, am I an elf? Who wants to change races?”
“… Are you kidding me now? Didn’t you say you weren’t an elf earlier?”
“I said something.”
Eranya frowned at her softly.
It’s such a face that looks like it’s going to be annoyed.
“Hey, I am an elf. I just abandoned my oath to the World Tree and came out, so I don’t call myself an elf. The race is an elf.”
“… You, please.”
An elf who abandoned the World Tree.
An elf who came out of the world.
He had heard rumors about elves who had abandoned their oath to the World Tree themselves.
Rumor has it that a shrine elf could hit a hundred targets with just one arrow.
“You can’t be that… “
“Ah, stop. Until there. There’s no need to talk more. Liberate me. Protection is not a weight that one person can carry. As I said, Asti is an exception.”
“… Astrid is an exception. Huh… You still don’t know. Nothing.”
Astein groaned and rose from her seat with her groans.
In a completely different way from Astrid, Astine forcibly grabbed her trembling knees and threw away the wall wand she was holding in her hand.
“I just don’t know. That’s right… Because I haven’t told anyone.”
“What do you mean?”
“… That’s done, and we’ll see. More than that… Wouldn’t it be unbearable for a scholar?”
Four of the patterns symbolizing the 12 palaces of the zodiac began to glow.
Shinwoon. Lucky enough to be seen as being loved by God.
Shinji. A wide variety of knowledge that makes you wonder if you carry a huge library in your head.
New idea. A vision that allows you to see farther and more closely, to places that others cannot see.
Faith. An indomitable will that does not yield to any hardship.
“… Similar to Madou, but different… As a person who walks the lord’s path, how can he endure the quest for knowledge?”
“Hey, you really die after that.”
Eranya immediately understood what Astain was trying to do.
She knows very well what those patterns mean.
And finally, this crazy witch doctor is trying to accept those four blessings into his own body.
“… Ugh. Is it really necessary?”
Eranya didn’t bother to stop it.
Protection is one for each person.
Also, like Astrid, there are cases where the body has two protections, but that is not the case that Astain is trying to arbitrarily grant, so the case is different.
And what will happen when you try to grant it by force.
It is unknown because no one has ever done it, but it is obvious that the end will not be good.
“… Yes, try it I am also curious.”
What would happen if those blessings were to dwell in one person’s body?
To be honest, I don’t think there will be a good end.
“But it is. Why are you doing that?”
“What would you like?”
Astain smiled.
Coincidentally, this place where he is standing is inside the camp of the 12th palace of the ecliptic drawn in a circle.
He smiled brightly in the golden light projected from below.
His narrow eyes, which seemed to have been closed all the time, are now twinkling open.
Those black eyes were directed towards Erania.
Those eyes that didn’t even feel any emotion were looking straight at Eranya.
“I don’t know, so I ask. You idiot?”
“It’s just revenge. Plural. Revenge on the invaders who destroyed my country.”
“… Plural?”
“Is it so. It’s just revenge. He destroys Astrid von Mitterien, who can never be defeated with his bare hands, from the inside, and also destroys Crown Prince Leopold because of that bitch. You can’t destroy an empire in one blow, but… Is it common?”
The golden brilliance was gradually approaching its apex.
“The prince of a ruined country sharpened his sword for revenge… Same thing. And there are other things like that, right?”
Finally, the golden glow covered Astain’s entire body.
His appearance, which seemed to be visible, now completely disappeared from sight, and the cavity became a place reminiscent of a gold mine, dyed with golden light bursting from within the zodiacal zodiac.
“… Such a story that a great empire that lost its heir fell into self-immolation and finally perished due to those who wanted to seize the imperial power. It’s not a story that doesn’t exist.”
The voice was as calm as ever.
Eventually, the brilliance burst out explosively, shining splendidly with the momentum to fill the inside of the tower as well as the main cavity.
