Chapter 65: Edifice
"You are not a monster... you are my big brother."
Opened my eyes and immediately sat on my bed while chasing my own breath. As I turned my gaze at the window, the morning sun was already up.Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
I slowly breathed out while rubbing my palms on my face.
Not again.
I really hate it when memories I thought I already forgot are coming back to haunt me again.
It's been years, I should have completely forgotten about it.
I stood up and walked towards the terrace, the moment I came out, the gentle touch of morning sun reached my skin. I gazed upon the entirety of the town in front of me, as life in it displayed once more.
I raised my hand and found them shivering again. I shook my head.
"I am not a monster."
After having breakfast with Tanya, Misha, and Karoon, Karoon and I traveled to the Marionette faction to check the current state of the ongoing construction of the municipal hall.
I put my hand above my eyes to block the sun from interfering with my line of sight. And wandered my eyes through the currently still foundation soon-to-be municipal hall of the entire town of Agrona.
It will be a huge 3 story white infrastructure with a red tile roof, which the entire design was under my guidance. So I'm certain that I will definitely like it once the construction is done.
"Wear your safety hat, so we can walk around," Karoon said while standing beside me while adjusting her gray safety hat.
I wore mine, thanks to the 2 outlets where my horns could pass through, there's no problem wearing this safety hat. Every demon worker was provided with a customized safety hat that varies depending on the shape of their horns.
I walked towards the building. "Let's go."
"Aye!"
I shook my head as I heard her start to groan.
I mean, that's a rough metal you are hanging on, Lady.
I exhaled and walked towards her and pushed the steel bar downward and bent it like the other ones on the wall.
"There you go." I clapped my hand to get rid of the dirt on my hand.
But what greeted me was her indifferent look. "I can take care of it myself, Mister Casimir. I don't need any help."
I nodded. "Yeah, I can see it. I just felt like helping."
As if she just realized something, her eyes widened and bowed her head. "I'm very sorry, Mister Casimir!"
"Sorry for what? You didn't do anything."
She raised her head with confusion in her eyes. "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure. Now, raise your head because I can already see your cleavage."
She jumped out and scratched the back of her head. "I already showed you all the parts of this ongoing building. I don't know what to do next."
"What should we do now while waiting for the prince of Inizio to arrive?" I sat down on my legs and looked up at her. "I want to eat street food. Do you know one around here? Except for the wild boar eyes, you will never have me eat those things."
"Ehh? You are asking me out again, Mister Casimir?"
I smiled. "Yep, can you take me to one?"
She excitedly clapped. "Of course! We should go now! You will love the food there!"
I watched her as she excitedly walked away from me.
