Episode 388: Clean as pure gold (1)

[Did Oman say so?] A

cozy yet gloomy space illuminated only by candlelight. The person standing in the center gently parted his bloodless lips.

[I can’t help it.]

His silhouette resembles a woman covered in a robe.

The being gently brushed the hair of the girl who was lying on her thighs. “Hmm.” Every time, a small drool leaked out of the girl’s mouth.

[Call Belphegor. I need to discuss measures with him.]

And when he was finally about to be seen by the girl. A dark-skinned hand moved to cover the girl’s eyes.

The silhouette under the robe changed in an instant, and a beautiful woman with flowing blonde hair revealed her head under the hood.

“...Sarah?”

[Yes, your Sarah is still here.]

“What time is it...”

[The sun hasn’t risen yet. You can sleep more.]

“But you have to wake up soon...”

[You said you would stay with me for a long time today.]

“Ah... Was today a holiday?”

[yes. At least that’s what Sarah knows.]

He took the girl’s hand and lightly kissed the back of it. The other hand is still covering the girl’s eyes, giving her a false night.

[I’ll wake you up when the sun rises, so don’t worry and sleep more, my Asphodel.]

“Ugh...”

In the end, when the girl who couldn’t withstand the attack fell asleep again, he pushed back her long hair. The hood followed the gesture and went down, revealing his face.

[I wonder what would happen if those who were deprived of love were also deprived of sloth.]

It was an empty, non-existent face.

“You’re late.”

Suzaku finally regained enough strength to take us out.

“There was an accident.”

Of course, the first place we headed to was the place where we left Meister and the three others. Four people who heard the fluttering sound came out and welcomed us with their arms crossed and their hands waved.

“Is this related to the fact that Suzaku got smaller?”

“okay.”

I nodded to the person leaning on the porch of the cabin. Then the Meister’s body stood upright and turned inward.

“You’re going right away, right?”

“I guess so.”

This is the main operation that was already worried about the empty space in the front line. Now that it has been unexpectedly delayed by three days, no one will know what its true feelings are.

The best consideration we could give was to hasten our steps even if it was unreasonable.

“Is the problem completely solved?”

“okay.”

Fortunately, thanks to the Inquisitor and Daniel sticking together for three days, the dragon recovered to some extent. Even if nothing can be done about the empty space in the piece, the cracked part has been completely filled.

Accordingly, the dragon’s spirit was awakened to some extent. According to Suzaku’s expression, it has changed from ‘fainting’ to ‘sleep’.

And the dragon’s daily routine is to take a nap, contemplate and protect the world. At least that’s what Suzaku insisted, so we decided to get out of there.

After all, if the dragon could do its job, there was no need for us to be there.

“...You two survived well.”

“hmm?”

At that time, the Meister’s eyes turned to the girl and fighter who had not gotten off Suzaku’s back behind me. My gaze became vague.

“...I thought you were alive and well.”

“what. “Did I look like a dead body that couldn’t survive for just a few days?”

“I wasn’t talking about that.”

Could it be that I was talking about the issue of living skills?

“Can you apologize to Berserk later?”

“why me?”

“...okay. “I knew you would say that.”

“Oh no way. “Did you think he would have killed me?”

“Then you guess that’s not the case?”

I think that bastard is going to go to hell someday because of his pettiness and shamelessness.

I started to get really worried about Meister. What if that bastard really dies like that? No, what should I do? I lost everything. That was roughly the worry.

“What did I do wrong?”

“well. “If that’s your opinion, then I have nothing to say...”

What’s the use of adding words to it when you say that’s what you think?

I shrugged, telling him to just figure it out. Although it resembles Janghwa, it is different in crucial aspects. A new realization is making my mind lonely.

“What is that way of talking?”

“Unfortunately, my constitution did not change after going to the North once.”

Meanwhile, the Meister who came up with the help of Daniel and Deathbringer laughed at me. Suddenly, Berserk and his gaze seemed to be intertwined.

“Hey kid. “Don’t you have something to return to me?”

Meister Hana never spoke to Berserk in the end. I didn’t even expect it. I watched him take a step towards the girl.

“Ah... I’m sorry.”

“What is it that you left behind?”

“I didn’t leave it behind! “I just woke up and...”

If the meister is being too harsh with the girl, you should intervene right away.

I carefully looked at the explanation of the situation, which continued step by step, and the expression on the Meister’s face as he listened to it.

[If everything is done, we will depart.] As

Suzaku began his flight, the air surrounding him became a little colder.

“That’s what I said.”

“I’m sorry....”

“No, that’s okay. “Because I was essentially giving up on getting it back.”

When the girl said that fortunately she had lost it, Meister obediently agreed. There was no need to worry. My heart was relieved by this unexpectedly positive situation. As expected, it is clear that Meisters are weak towards children.

“Instead, let out the feelings you felt while writing.”

“yes yes!”

Then, is there nothing more to worry about now?

I took out a pen and paper, leaving the Meister questioning the girl and Berserk watching from a step away.

There is one purpose. The goal is to draw faces that you see unexpectedly before you forget them.

“There are some shortcomings....”

“Would it have helped?”

“It’s enough to cover the loan amount.”

Of course, there are quite a few things I drew over the past three days. However, the more data that can remind us of memories, the better.

“...Did you lend me a weapon?”

“however?”

“...I want to say thank you. “If it weren’t for your help, this kid would have died there.”

I moved my pen while thinking of the faces of my friends, whom I had accidentally seen because they had suffered serious injuries. The Deathbringer who was snooping nearby had a very curious look on his face.

“I bought it because my child put it to good use, and I don’t think it’s something I should be grateful for.”

“If you don’t like it, don’t.”

“...Well, if you really appreciate it, there’s nothing I can’t accept.”

If you’re really curious, there’s nothing I can’t tell you. Anyway, even if I say it now, I won’t be cornered.

“....”

“....”

“Oh really.”

I pointed to each person in the picture and told them who they were.

Seonlim is a friend from whom I always learn a lot. He may be a bit picky, but he has a lot of patience. This is Jeonghee’s mood maker and the one who takes the lead in causing accidents. Lastly, Taekyun is the reason I like cars.

“What is that?”

Come to think of it, we were all supposed to go volunteer together in the summer, but it must have been canceled because of me.

Dev wiggled his hands at my muttering. “It seems like all of Nari’s friends are similar to her.” It was a story I heard occasionally.

“Oh sir.”

There is nothing I can do about it. I tended to only keep the people who could be like that as my true friends, and those who weren’t like that didn’t even try to stay by my side in the first place.

Well, in the end, these four are the only ones left by my side.

“I’m sorry.”

But around that time, I heard something familiar but unfamiliar.

“...?”

“I felt sorry at that time.”

...You were a person who knew how to give a meister apple, right?

“It’s not that I didn’t foresee that possibility, but I wasn’t really trying to deceive. “I just want you to know that.”

Of course, is that a proper apology? If you ask me, that’s a separate issue. Still, I apologized. I thought it would never happen, but surprisingly it did.

“...okay.”

Berserk’s eyes widened slightly as if he hadn’t expected this situation. The amber eyes looked unusually clear against the bright blue sky.

“I will accept that apology.”

At this level... can it still be considered average? I leaned back against the basket, feeling a little lighter.

“Uh oh!”

Kudang!

“...!”

“Oh my gosh!”

“Wow!”

...I forgot that the basket couldn’t support the weight of my body. My back burned with the fire of purification.
