Chapter 33 – Silk Blonde (3)
One.
It swallowed up the brilliant golden body. The light was warm and comfortable like spring sunlight, and I felt like I wanted to be wrapped up forever.
What is a buff? Is it like a small gift from the team leader to new recruits?
Judging from the fact that he said that he was family after joining Team 3, it seemed that Team 3 manager valued his team members like family. That’s why you give it such a warm light and that’s it.
Besides, there is no way that taming will work for people in the first place, so this light must be for me, a newcomer. There was no need to be nervous at all.
I learned from the butler when I was working as a butler in the Leight family after graduating from the academy that it is the duty of a lower person to be grateful for what a superior gives. Following that teaching, I decided to enjoy this moment comfortably.
“Okay, it’s over. It took quite a while.”
After the light therapy for a while, the golden light that covered the entire team leader’s room was absorbed into my body.
Crackle. Support position.
Immediately after the golden light was absorbed, I felt like I could hear sparks flying in my head, but it soon became quiet.
What was it?
I just looked at the team leader, wondering if I had heard that sound. However, she still had a subtle smile that made her intentions unknown, but she did not show any reaction.
Did I hear you wrong? Well, I only heard the sound for a moment, but it wasn’t painful, and it felt like the fatigue remaining in my body had disappeared, so it wouldn’t be bad.
Thinking about that, I thought it was an auditory hallucination caused by the absorption of light and passed it off.
Normally, I would have started with suspicion that Scar might have done something to me, but now I have more important things to do than that.
My boss even used my abilities for me as a newcomer, so I had to express my gratitude. Because each and every one of these trivial expressions creates a harmonious social life.
“How are you feeling?”
Just in time, the team leader urged me to give thanks. I felt like I had met a team leader who was full of consideration when I saw that the board was laid out so that it was easy to be grateful.
Ever since I met Scar, I didn’t have the slightest bit of an ant’s butt hole, but a humane person finally came to me. Guildmaster, thank you for letting me meet good people.
I said thank you from the bottom of my heart to the guild leader, a decent person by my standards, who arranged this meeting.
Then, holding the team leader’s hand that was wrapped around mine, I shouted while bending his waist at 90 degrees.
“Thanks to the team leader, the accumulated fatigue was relieved. Thank you very much! I will work hard in the future!”
“Uh? Was it like this originally? It’s been a while since I’ve written to a person, so I can’t tell. Ummm… But, well, it looks fine.”
The team leader muttered something into the back of my head, but I was so excited at the thought that I could have a proper social life without a scar, so I couldn’t hear it properly.
Anyway, after saying hello, I straightened my bent back and looked down at the team leader in front of me. From a distance he looked quite tall, but in reality he was shorter than Scar.
The proportions were good, so it looked big.
Scar is in the mid-160s, so the team leader is probably in the late 150s? It looks prettier when you look at it up close. Eyelashes are also very long. This might be prettier than Scar…
“Yes, because they are now part of my family. There is something you must do first.”
While I was comparing Scar, who burns the world with fire from his mouth, in my head, and the team leader, who feeds the fish with a benevolent hand, the team leader’s words interrupted my thoughts.
“Yes Yes? Ah yes. What can I do, chief?”
At my question, the team leader’s eyebrows twitched for a moment, and he looked at me with slightly sharp eyes as he ran his palm across my cheek.
Holding me in her two large amber eyes, she tapped her fingertips on my cheeks and whispered in a voice that tickled her ears.
“First of all, before you ask me to do the work… Change the not-so-cute title of that team leader. Hmm… Because the master is so tired. Yes, senior call me senior Not a senior, just a senior. It’s cute to have a lover behind the owner, but I don’t like it because it feels a bit distant when you put a love after a senior. Because there shouldn’t be a sense of distance between family members.”
“Senior…?”
“Okay, boss, you look too old, don’t you? It’s not even cute I hate being called that title.”
Team leader ······, no, the silky-blonde senior stretched out her mouth in Korean and Japanese characters, as if she truly disliked the title of team leader.
Well, since the silk blonde senior was twenty-four, a year older than me, it was not strange that she felt repulsed by such a thing. It seems that people themselves have a unique worldview.
But unlike the former team leader, I think I’m a good person. I, his subordinate, will have to match.
“Well then, where would you like me to call you?”
There was a very faint light of expectation in the senior’s eyes. The first mission given by her boss, with whom she will spend the same amount of time in the future, should never have failed.
That’s a very easy command. All you have to do is reply, ‘Yes, senpai.’ There’s no need to be nervous. Because the senior is a good person.
It was actually the first order I received after entering the liars trap. No, to be precise, the former team leader once ordered me to get out of the guild, so is this the second order? Anyway, it was the most important task in my future social life.
Whatever the difficulty of the order, it had to be executed perfectly. There is a saying that a beginning is half done, and there is a saying that putting the first button well is the most important thing.
That’s why the senior’s order to call me ‘senpai’ was the most important thing to me, an order that I had to complete unconditionally.
It wasn’t really a big deal, but it was the most nervous moment since seeing a letter with a heart sticker coming out of the locker while going home with Scar in the academy.
By the way, the letter was immediately confiscated, read by Scar, and evaporated in flames.
Her TMI puts her aside, and I take a deep breath and open her mouth to her with her slightly hushed voice.
“Ah… Yes, senior.”
“Huh. I told you not to call me senior. Why did you put Nim?”
Holy shit. You got attached so naturally. I even promised not to make mistakes! An open cub! That’s why you can’t get away from Scar for 13 years!
I reflexively blamed myself, but right now, answering the senior’s question came first rather than blaming myself.
After putting on a face as disrespectful as possible, I slightly bowed my head and apologized so that the senior would not feel burdened.
“That… Senior was such a great Awakener that you naturally followed him after him. I won’t make this mistake next time. Sorry!”
“I never thought I’d make a mistake on my first order, something so easy. It looks sharp, but the contents are not as good as they look?”
“Yes? Ah… I’m sorry.”
It seems that the first impression was wrong. Well, even if it’s like me, I’d get annoyed first if the guy who came in as the first subordinate didn’t have the ability and was even clumsy.
It was understandable that the senior seemed a little uncomfortable.
I couldn’t make eye contact because I was so pathetic that I couldn’t call her name properly.
As I was laying my eyes down with my head half-down, a soft hand caressed my head.
“It’s okay. Raise your head. Everyone can make a mistake once. Of course, it shouldn’t be repeated.”
I raised my head at the senior’s words. Then she saw an angelic beauty, a little prettier than Scar, right in the center of her field of vision. She smiled benevolently, stroking my hair and cheering me on. She was literally a tamer herself.
There was an unbelievable rumor going around saying, ‘Anyone can be tamed with silk blondes’… It seems that such a kind and warm person has created such a rumor.
The aura of kindness she exuded was so warm that if I had been a little weak in my independence, I would have taken her in her arms right away and called her Mamang.
I really sympathized with the saying that I was born to be a tamer, as the world calls it. Who else would be a tamer?
“There is no need to feel guilty. Just don’t make the same mistakes over and over again. Is it because you’re nervous? I know your heart.”
A good person I haven’t seen in a long time exudes good energy and encourages me with good words.
I was moved by the senior, to the extent that memories I had forgotten for a while from the director of the orphanage came to my mind.
“Stop, senior…”
Although we met for the first time today, all of the senior’s actions were from the heart.
During the academy days, where Kwon Mo-soo was rampant, I survived because I was not clumsy, and I was able to know her sincerity.
So, I think I can give my allegiance to a person like this.
“Yeah, fine. Encouragement seems to have been enough. Would you like to come here for a while?”
At the same time as I thought that, the senpai stopped stroking my hair and beckoned me to follow her and approached her own chair.
“Ah yes!”
Her liking for her seniors had skyrocketed, so I followed after her with the determination, ‘I must do what I am told to do perfectly this time!’.
“Now is the most exciting time. When I first asked them to do this, everyone reacted differently.”
The senpai said something incomprehensible, and she sat down on her chair, and I looked down at the senpai and said, ‘Please do anything for me.’ I let out an aura.
As if my attitude had reached her senior, she smiled in interest and took off her slippers from her toes.
Eh? Why are you taking off your slippers?
Before that question could even get out of her head, the senior took off her slippers, twisted her legs up, and held them out towards me.
What? Would you like a foot massage? Like a three-team tradition to test allegiance? Not really. Team 3 has only one senior, so there’s no way there’s a tradition.
Looking at the white and beautiful senior’s outstretched feet, the inferences she made were interrupted by the languid sound she heard right in front of her eyes.
“Kiss her instep. With sincerity it’s a command You can’t make a mistake this time.”
The orders of her senior were far beyond her imagination, to the extent that the questions and reasoning that filled her head flew away at once.
Is this a joke? Is this an S-class joke from an S-class awakener? Are you kidding? Hey, can you be sane and give me an order like this?
She looked at her senior, doubting her ears. The senior still looked up at me with her languid eyes and smiled at me. She was not the eyes of the one who made the joke. Now she was really telling me to kiss her feet.
No god Kissing the instep is like a scare command… Wait, Scar? What would Scar say?
“I do not like it.”
As soon as she thought of Scar, she involuntarily expressed her intention of refusal to her reflexive repulsion.
After she spat the words, she thought for a moment, ‘Did you just say no?’, But no matter how much she thought about it, kissing her feet was too much Eva. To the point where he promised he would refuse even if he asked again.
By the way, kissing the instep. I thought she would be a nice person. Was he just a weird person?
The vigilance that had descended to the floor quickly surged again. The senior who looked at me full of doubts… No, the silk blonde had his eyes wide open as if he was very surprised for some reason.
When he saw that his eyes, which had been languid all along, were perfectly open, he could tell that they were really big.
Anyway, why are you so surprised? Are you sure you’re going to kiss the instep? If that’s really the case, then I’ve been working for a very strange person.
It was a word I heard many times during social education from the butler that it was more difficult to have a strange person as a boss than a bad person.
It was because a bad person could predict behavior without being mean, but a strange person committed unpredictable crazy things because his way of thinking was different from ours.
Hopefully not to that extent. He must have been surprised by my firm refusal. I tried my best to deny it, but the words of the silk blonde put an end to my denial of reality.
“Why? No, uh, how could you say no?”
“Yes?”
“I was taming, and you couldn’t avoid it… Is this possible?”
“Yes?! Te, is it timing? How do you taming people? No, did you try taming me before that? The rumor that people can also be tamed was real, not a metaphor, then?! Wow, that fucking creeps me out!”
“Uh? Oh no that’s it oh must oh I can explain everything. So could you look over here for a moment?”
“Yes?”
Flash!
I inadvertently turned my head when I was told to look this way, and the golden light emitted from the white palm of my silk blonde swallowed my whole body again.
Paperweight!
This time, the golden light was absorbed into my body, and at the same time, I heard the same spark popping sound in my head.
The light disappeared, and vision returned to normal. In front of his eyes was a silk blonde with a face as if expecting something.
She, who was more beautiful than her ska, is now starting to look like a crazy woman who shoots her brainwashing rays. An indescribable fear came over me.
“Te, is it tamed? Did it happen this time? Now, come and put on my feet…”
“Uh, aaaaa!!”
At the insane command to kiss my foot, I turned around and ran out with all my might. Of course, I couldn’t run away from the S-class Awakener, so I was caught right away.
