Chapter 130 – Apocalypse) Abel Netori (9)
When Erica came to her senses, everything was over.
“Um… “
“Are you awake Erica?”
“Ahyeon? Why me… “
The feeling of cushion that you feel when you put your hand to raise your body. Erica frowned at the white mattress, as if she couldn’t remember her well.
Maybe it’s my turn now.
“Erika.”
“…Abel.”
At the sound of my voice, Erica trembled and turned to me. She couldn’t look at me properly, perhaps not yet awake, and I smiled as she rolled her eyes.
She thought my smile was a joke, so she bit her mouth, then opened her eyes wide and got up from the bed.
“This is not the time to be like this. Irene, no Iris… !”
“Erika, it’s okay.”
“Kuh, how did you lose consciousness? It’s clear that I wrote a memorization… “
“It’s fine.”
“Huh?!”
She smiled and put her hand on Erica’s head, and Erica stepped back from her in shock. Erika’s red face is probably because her room is quite hot. She purses her lips a couple of times before catching her breath.
“…What happened? What about Iris? And that demon girl too… “
“Iris… It’s somewhere else. Raina is sleeping over there.”
Erica looked where my finger was pointing. She looked at Reina, who was soundly asleep, and she stroked her chest as if she was relieved.
“I’m glad… But, why am I here… ? I don’t remember anything.”
“You fell. I think you overworked yourself.”
“Overwork… ? Is it… “
“Yes Erica! How worried were her sister and the hero when she suddenly collapsed!”
“Ahaha… That’s how it happened.”
Erica smiled awkwardly and scratched her cheek. That this cute and noxious creature is the same woman who put her fears behind and blocked her knight. I can’t believe it.
What if Erica hadn’t bought that moment of time? I must have lost her comrades once more before I could even hide her in the cabin.
It’s not enough to express my gratitude a hundred or a thousand times to Erica. Even aside from her debt to her for doubting her.
“Relief… Hmm? Ah, Abel! Aren’t you hurt!”
“Not a big deal. Because it will heal soon anyway.”
“Yeah, but… ! Stay still. I’ll have to see for myself… !”
I look at the bandage wrapped around my arm in a hurry. For what reason did Erica leave you broken on her pavement?
Have you ever been kicked out? Well, if you have such a gentle personality, it might not be easy to live among the demons.
“Look… How are you?”
I smiled silently and took Erica into her arms. Her beating, the beating of her heart through the clothes she was touching, the sound of her breathing. And a sweet girly scent.
“Thank you Erica. You did a really great job.”
“Ah, ah, that, no… Uhhh… Some of this… “
“To be honest… I doubted you. Pretending to have lost his memory, I wondered if he had intentionally approached me. I felt I had to apologize for that.”
“Okay… Let me go… Let it go, let it go, let it go… “
“Huh? What?”
“Profit… !”
Boom!
Erica slammed her forehead and slipped out of my embrace. In the meantime, she felt that she had delicately adjusted her direction, in case she was stabbed by her horns, and another burst of laughter.
“Ooh, are you laughing? Why are you laughing Profit, gye, if you keep laughing like that… !”
“What if you laugh?”
“…I do not know! Noisy! Get out of my room right now, Abel!”
“This is my room.”
“Ugh!”
What. Originally, did you like the taste of Erika teasing you like this?
Her face turned red and unable to do this or that is like a young child. Putting this aside, who would believe that he is over 200 years old in terms of the age of the demons?
“Whoops… “
“Ahyeon, you can also say something. That, men and women are so different, how could they be in one room… !”
“Huh? Wasn’t it you every time I asked you to sleep in the same room because it was a waste of money?”
“Is that so? Ugh… But… Even when changing clothes… “
“What kind of a guy who didn’t even button up his blouse properly, saying it was getting in the way…” Haha.”
“…”
In the end, Erica chose to run away. Mumbling with her blushing face, she made eye contact with hers and ran out of line. It was accompanied by the sound of the wind blowing away.
Bang! Ahyeon opens her mouth as the door closes and the chaotic atmosphere subsides.
“Erika… You seem to be a little more honest now.”
“Are you honest?”
“Yes. Her own inner thoughts, and… Emotions too.”
Ahyeon looked at the closed door and smiled softly. Then he got up and walked over to Rayna, who was still asleep.
I was drunk with aphrodisiacs, so I won’t have to worry about coming back to my senses for a while. As I watched without restraint, Ahyeon sat down on the bed where Reina was lying and brushed Reina’s hair.
I asked her while thinking about her meaning in her silence.
“A lie? Emotion? Do you feel that?”
Even with my eyes, which can read other people’s fragmented emotions, I couldn’t feel any emotions.
What I saw was just a complex mixture of many emotions. It wasn’t something that could be dismissed as a single emotion.
Saying that, Ahyeon shook her head and said.
“Don’t rely only on your ability. Sometimes more is revealed than hidden. Just looking at Erica’s reaction now… It’s obvious what you’re feeling, right?”
“Obviously… ? Well… I don’t know… “
“Warrior. I’ve heard a lot of people say they don’t notice.”
“Ugh… “
I was stabbed in the middle. He lowered his head without answering, so Ahyeon smiled and pressed the back of Reina’s nose. Reina’s eyes opened as if it could be a button.
“Oh, Reina! Unni, Ahyeon unnie… !”
“Ahyeon… Sister… Ehe… “
“Oops… It was hard. Sorry. I should have gone with you no matter what.”
The two hugged each other and enjoyed a touching reunion.
But no matter how insane you are, Reina is Rafe. Her heart is not at ease as she feels like she is committing her sins to Lena just by watching her. I looked at the two quietly and got up from my seat with the intention of blowing at least some wind.
Ahyeon, who had been stretching Reina’s cheeks, looked back.
“Are you leaving?”
“Huh. Just in case the wind blows.”
“Find Erica. She must be stuck somewhere.”
“Wouldn’t it be rude if I found it when it was stuck?”
“…Hero.”
“M-I’m sorry… I’ll look for it.”
Ahyeon was able to make a face like that.
It seems even scarier than Archel…
She stuck out her tongue thinking that she really didn’t know what a woman was, and followed Ah-hyun’s words to find Erica.
***
A heart that keeps beating for some reason. She thought she had been poisoned, but when she remembered that she hadn’t eaten anything, she struggled again.
“Why… “
Can’t understand at all
This heartbeat. Open this.
Why did my mouth dry up just by looking at Abel? Does your mind become cloudy like a cloud?
Erica took her steps, thinking that she must have been ill.
“Anyway, this is the first place I’ve seen.”
Erica didn’t know where this place was because she hadn’t been given any explanation. She can only guess that it is related to magic from the fact that there are many people wearing long robes.
I’m just curious Nothing seemed particularly dangerous, so it would be okay to look around the places that are open to the public.
Erica asked, grabbing the robe of a man who had just passed her.
“Look. Could you please explain where this place is?”
“Hmm? Ah… Are you the warrior’s lover? Hero guy, this Lori is what you like.”
“Hey, lover?! Heh, stop talking nonsense. How rude! And… What is Lori! It’s a bad word, so don’t use it!”
“He has a temper. Ha ha… “
The man who laughed at me to go away stopped laughing after a while. He seemed quite friendly with the hero Abel. Sensing that she was not at ease with that fact, Erica hurried her explanation with a blank gaze. He smiled and put down the scrolls he was holding and opened his mouth.
“This is the magic tower in the north.”
“The magic tower in the north… “
“Well, there’s nothing dangerous, so you can look around as much as you like. Do not enter a locked place. Goodbye, hero’s lover.”
“Who is the lover… ! Ugh, turn it off right now!”
Erica smiled and walked away from him.
A lover is a place where such rude people exist, so this place would not be a very good place either.
“I’m a bad guy… “
She wandered aimlessly. Erica makes her way down her straight hallway until she stops in front of a half-open door.
“Here?”
There is not even a signpost explaining what the place is doing. Only the light shimmering inside and the sound of conversations let us know that there are people inside.
I’m just curious She told me not to enter the locked area, so it would be okay to enter the unlocked area.
Top secrets or dangers may not be so easily accessible in the first place. Thinking so, Erica slipped her body through the crack in her open door.
“Ugh, haha… Save… Save me… “
“Flaw… Didn’t you already say you were dead? Princess Iris, no… Did she say Irene now?”
“…!”
The content of the conversation overheard was enough to harden Erica’s expression.
Iris’ familiar voice. And her voice of an old man who seems to be persecuting her.
Sensing that the situation was not serious, Erika crouched close to her and crawled slowly. No matter how evil she was, Iris couldn’t just sit back and watch if she was also suffering injustice.
As she turned the corner and stuck her head out, the situation caught her eye. Iris was imprisoned in her cage, her limbs bound, and her old man with white hair was talking to her.
“Magic tower lord… To think that you are also involved in treason… “
“You’re inverse. I’m just facing Irene, an impersonator who pretended to be the princess.”
“Kuu… “
At the old man’s words, Irene bowed her head. I don’t know the details, but I can tell that Irene is in an uncomfortable situation. Erica turned away, thinking she would not get involved any longer. But at the sound of her rustling, her gray-haired old man also turned around and looked at her.
“Oh, a bold guest has arrived.”
“Oh… !”
“Haha. It doesn’t hurt me, so it’s okay to come here. Where did the disciple seduce so many women… ”
Erika tilted her head at the old man’s murmuring. Disciple Rani, it seems that the disciple is pointing to Abel, but did Abel tell the story of her teacher…
Searching for her memories, Erica looked at her Irene, noticing her gaze toward her. Irene was standing with her hatchet eyes open, glaring at her Erica.
“How… A bitch who can’t even handle auras… “
“…”
“Uh huh. What is your habit of talking to VIPs, Irene? I call my disciple right away… “
“Hey!”
“…You don’t need to call. Huh.”
Irene, in her unbridled anger, crawled to the corner of her asshole in her selfish fear. Erica looked at her old man, thinking that Abel had managed to scare her. The old man shrugged his shoulders and left the place. Erica also looked back and forth between Irene and the old man, and she followed.
“That… “
“Magic tower lord.”
“What?”
“Aren’t you curious about who I am? In the world, it is called the false name of the owner of the Magic Tower. There must be another wizard who truly needs to be the owner of the mage tower.”
“…”
The old man’s stride wasn’t too wide, so Erica was able to follow him leisurely.
Passing by the place where Irene was imprisoned, the magic tower owner walked along the hallway without saying a word for a long time. As Erica, who was following him, was about to express her doubts, she pointed at one of the places he nodded her chin. As she turned her head along that direction, she found a small garden.
“I sometimes walk around here when my mind is distracted. How about we walk together? You seem worried.”
“…How did you find out?”
“It says ‘I’m worried’ written on your face, but the only person who won’t notice is my ugly disciple.”
The mage tower lord laughed and stepped into the garden first. Erica looked behind him for a moment, then she followed him into the garden.
She thought that if she was a wizard of the level of the master of the Magic Tower, she would be able to heal this stuffiness that tormented her.
