Chapter 142: Liar
(Casimir Kismet.)
I narrowed my eyes as I leaned my back against the backrest of one of the sofas inside the living room and veered my eyes outside through the window. It was already night time and from the window, I could see the lights inside the town.
"Hmm? What should I bring, I can't decide."
I veered my eyes back to the person standing in front of me. She pointed her narrowing eyes at me while pouting her lips.
I shrugged. "Karoon, you don't need to bring anything unnecessary, we're going to aid in a war, not an army scale picnic."
"Big sis Karoon, tell me about how beautiful that place is once you get home," Misha said while standing next to her, she's smiling at Karoon while staring up at her face.New novel chapters are published on
Yep, she's adorably small, I know.
"Of course, Big sis Karoon will tell you a lot of stories once I get back."
I exhaled and put my face over my hand currently leaning on the backrest of the sofa. "I still can't believe that you decided to go with us, Karoon." I shifted my gaze at Tanya currently sitting on one of the sofas while just silently listening to us.
Karoon raised her thumbs up. "I heard a lot of stories about how beautiful that place is from Kuro and it would be great if I could see it too. Since Tan-tan can't go with you, I just thought... I could come instead." She ran towards Tanya and hugged her. "Luckily, Tan-tan consented."
Tanya closed her eyes and crossed her arms. "I did not."
Karoon smiled at me. "See?"
What do you mean by 'See'? It's pretty obvious that Tanya didn't agree with it!
"I will miss you, Big sis Karoon."
"Ohhh... So do I, Misha."
"Just don't be a burden to anyone... and don't ever put yourself in great danger."
"Don't worry, Tan-tan. I, Karoon, will protect myself and will never be a burden to anyone. I will be a reliable ally while we're in that place."
"Not convincing enough."
"Ehh! Don't say that!"
"The things that you said to Leal back at the meeting. I know that at least a lot of them were lies."
I narrowed my eyes. "What do you mean?"
"Meruems only lack sympathy and compassion towards the ones they believe who don't deserve them... but they are capable of sentiment... and love." She walked one step closer to me and looked up while expressing no emotion on her face. "Leal was right, you have been driven by your own emotion, to the extent that you would not even hesitate to destroy yourself just to save the person you perceived as your friend. Even if it will cost everything."
"How can you tell?"
She smiled at me. "You tend to lie a lot. And because of it, even though I don't want to, I cannot help but see the pattern every time you're lying."
Am I that easy to read?
"If you knew, why didn't you say anything?"
She veered her face in front of us and stood up next to me. "I have no plan to oppose your intention... and I am already used to your lies." The next thing I felt was her head on my arm as she leaned against me. "You are right... The coldness tonight really is different. It's so cold."
I instantly felt the rumbling inside my chest as I stared at her face. Her eyes were closed while her bangs were being swayed by the gentle wind.
I have a freaking beautiful, gothic, silver-haired, Fairy leaning on my arm! But this time she's sober! She's freaking sober! Sober! S!O!B!E!R!
Man, this must be my death flag! One can't be this lucky and would never face suffering after!
Fuck! Am I going to die in this upcoming battle?
Maybe she felt how I was shivering really hard, she raised her head and smiled at me. Her gray eyes were filled with tenderness in them... and fuck me, fairies have been widely fantasized for a very good fucking reason!
All of them are fucking beautiful!
And at this very moment, one of them is looking at me with such fondness in her eyes while leaning against me! I can feel my lowly soul slowly ascending towards the heavens!
"Yeah, I must have been a bad liar."
"Don't worry, you look so valiant when lying and I won't get tired of seeing the expressions you're making every time you lie. After all, you are my most favored liar, Casimir."
"Uh... I'm glad to hear that."
Yup... I'm going to die in a very brutal way in this upcoming battle!
