Chapter 69
Chapter 69.
Most people mistakenly believe that a verbal apology for a mistake will end things.
If it was something that could be solved with just one word, I wouldn’t have come this far.
What is the meaning of an apology that has never been able to understand the heart of a person who has been hurt? Sera, who had firmly closed the door to her heart, thought as she looked at Lenny, who had a vain expression on her face.
‘From the beginning, I wish it was like that.’
If only you had accepted my courageous heart. By now, I wouldn’t have gone to the Devil’s Castle with a happy heart. Is it a useless delusion?
Sera moved to use her magic to build a cabin for use in this timeline.
‘I understand now’
Sera carries wood with a hopeless expression. Looking at it, Lenny grasped the identity of Sera’s emotions.
‘Sera…’
I was in a state of tight pouting.
Perhaps it’s because it’s the first time I’ve been angry with someone, so I’m showing such a stubborn side. Sera’s cheeks seemed to swell as she silently built the hut.
Usually, when a child does not go his way, he makes that expression.
A sad expression. I’m not angry, I’m angry A child who acts to express emotions somehow. That’s what Sarah does.
I hid my smile with the palm of my hand at Sarah’s child-like appearance.
‘Be patient..Be patient..’
She doesn’t usually make a proper expression, so the fact that she is expressionless and sulking like that came to me as a laughing point.
Sera, who used to have a cool expression, silently builds a house with a frown. She couldn’t help but laugh.
“Pu-sup..”
“..?”
It was a big deal. The windy laughter leaked out without my knowledge. There was no way Sera, who was sensitive, would miss it.
“Are you laughing now?”
“Ah..No! It’s not like that..”
That’s right. However, I felt that the situation would only get worse, so I uttered a defiant lie to Sera’s questioning.
“It’s because the air is cold..!”
“…”
As expected, I was not good at lying. Sera looked at me with a doubtful expression at my pitiful excuse.
“Hmm…Really…?”
She said so, but Sera’s eyes gave me a look of disbelief at all. Will the situation get worse? Sera’s mouth opened as she exhaled the night air.
“First of all, come in. I’ll even block the wind.”
Contrary to my expectations, Sera calmly told me to come into the cabin. I wonder if he was worried about me when he said the air was cold.
By the way, when was it done?
It felt like time had passed, but a small cabin greeted me in front of me. It seems to be true that people without emotion are good at being architects.
So I went into the small hut Sarah had made.
“Excuse me…”
The inside of the cabin was more comfortable than expected.
Not only does it block the cold wind of the forest, but it is also the right height. Wood texture. A bed made of wood, a desk with two seats. They gathered in one place and provided me with comfort.
In such a space, a good idea came into my head.
‘There’s nothing better than a compliment to a person who is angry’
I sincerely praised Sera.
“You made it so well? Didn’t you work as an architect during my absence?”
From noble mtl dot com
Did I exaggerate too much? Sera’s expression after receiving my excessive praise did not look very bright.
Sarah turned her head and said.
“Well, I made something other than a house…”
“Really?”
Sera turned her head and spoke in a low voice, but I could read the emotion behind it.
‘..You’re shy’
Turning her head, Sera’s ears were bright red. Certainly Sarah had a childlike side when it came to her feelings.
I looked at Sarah like that and sat down on the chair she made for herself.
‘I can’t be confined here for the rest of my life.’
What should I do to do that? To relieve Sera’s anger? That would be the best way But other ways also existed.
‘Wait until the warrior party arrives.’
This method is close to the number of bets. The warrior party will be looking for me, but there is no guarantee that they will find it through Sera’s magic.
Do you wait or do I solve it?
Answers that do not know how long both will take. The method I chose was the closest to the correct answer.
‘This is the correct answer…’
There is a child who is upset. Most people will do whatever their child wants to soothe them.
If you want to buy a toy, buy it. If you want sweets, bring them sweets. Freeing a child who is so upset consumes a lot of resources.
What if the child’s anger was relieved by doing that? People will believe When a child is upset, you can give them what they want! Do. That also applies to children.
If the child also wants something, he will start to abuse it. Kids these days are smart, especially.
So, Sera, who has just awakened her emotions, but is highly intelligent? Of course you wouldn’t abuse it. Therefore, there is only one way to overcome this situation.
‘Ignore it as much as possible.’
If you look at children who are angry, most of them are children who are angry without realizing it. Wouldn’t Sera be that type? Thinking like that, I have definitely decided on my current attitude.
If this doesn’t work…
Well, I’ll have to wait until the warrior party arrives. It was a simple matter indeed.
I got up from the chair and lay down on the bed Sarah made.
“Huh..?”
Sarah, who had been blushing at the praise for the first time in a while, let out a questioning exclamation when she saw it. Why are you lying down already? It was an action to instill such thoughts in Sera.
ㅡ…
A considerable amount of time has passed since I lay down on the bed, and in the meantime, only silence reigned in the cabin. Such a situation did not make sense to Sarah.
‘Why aren’t you saying anything…’
Sera took the uneasiness of the quiet cabin and bit his nails. She was quite troubled in her situation.
Obviously, if you show feelings of anger, isn’t it natural to take action to appease that feeling?
Is it really okay for the butler to stay still without holding on to the demon lord like this..?
Sera, who was mixed with acting to some extent, couldn’t help but be embarrassed by the situation that went differently than she expected.
After Lenny lay down on the bed for another 15 minutes. It was Sarah’s side who brought her out first.
“..Is the butler sleeping?”
Sera cautiously brings her words out. Lenny responded indifferently to Sera’s words.
“I’m tired, so I’m going to sleep.”
“Oh…”
You are tired..
Yes, it could be. It must have been difficult because I was driving a wagon.
Sera understood such Lenny with her head, and she felt a slight savory taste.
‘..Aren’t you giving me more compliments?’
The housekeeper’s compliment after a long time. Before I could feel all the warmth of that warmth, the butler was showing a cold appearance for some reason.
‘It must be because of my mood.’
Yes. You’ve received too much information today, so you’re not feeling any better.
With that thought in mind, Sera laid her body next to Lenny who was lying down. Since she intended to sleep together from the beginning, it was easy for the two of them to lie down.
However, even though she lay down with Lenny, dark clouds bloomed in Sarah’s heart.
I thought that if we lay down together and sleep together, we would be able to feel the joy of the old days…
Why don’t you look at me…?
Sarah felt sad for Leni, who was sleeping with her back turned on her.
So Sarah’s first night at her cabin ended with Lenny’s back.
•••
‘This…Isn’t this…’
It was around the time I got used to living in a cabin. Sarah was realizing with her body that she was wrong.
If she took him to the recurring place, she thought she’d get him right except for the other kids.
‘Will you do anything I want to get out of this place?’
A somewhat calculated situation. However, Lenny’s behavior was far from Sarah’s expectations.
It happened during mealtime on the first day.
Sera thought that if she cooked the meal, Lenny would definitely give her a compliment.
‘How does it taste?’
Vegetable soup made from crops in the nearby forest. It was a dish Sarah cooked to fill her stomach while Lenny was missing.
The taste is normal. But still, he’s a deacon who needs to look good to me. Would you like to compliment me?
Such a sweet dream was shattered with Lenny’s dry words.
‘Just like that’
Isn’t it said that people forget what to say when they get too flustered? Sarah was the first to experience it.
Honestly, this was fine for Sera.
However, if these experiences continue to accumulate, on which side will they gradually collapse?
The accumulated anger melts away like snow. Rather, Sarah had a difficult time in the process.
‘Really?’
‘I see..’
‘Is that so?’
Leni, who overheard Sera’s words, responded roughly to everything she said. The days that followed like that. Sarah was no fool, so she could tell he had caught on to his plan.
‘Why…Why did I get caught…?’
I thought I would never get caught. Did you catch my smoke? Why?
Sera was under the illusion that her expression was perfect. As time goes by, who is the person trapped in that place? Even Sera is confused. She made her decision.
“..Thinking about it, I think the butler must have had a hard time too..”
I thought that if I just locked him up, he would win love. She felt his embers go out even more, so Sera decided to lower her tail.
“Thank you for noticing”
Then Lenny stroked her hair. A thought crossed her mind as she felt his touch.
‘As expected, this is the best…’
A magic circle was manifested from Sera’s hand, and that’s how Sera’s small resistance came to an end.
“What.. What is it, where did it appear from..?”
A small cabin suddenly appeared in the forest. The case of Lenny and Sarah, who disappeared for about an hour that night, went down to a simple incident.
