Chapter.38 You are not there
“Where have you gone?”
-Gurgling.
Lurin woke up. Lurin rarely wakes up alone, but that usually happens because El wakes her up around noon.
L wasn’t at the restaurant today. So there is no one to wake up. Thanks to this, Lurin woke up around 3 PM.
“You are not there. Hunya.”
does not exist.
There is no L.
I’m annoyed because you didn’t come to wake me up and I’m annoyed.
The frustration is multiplied by two.
As I was getting irritated, a vague memory came to mind. It is a fragment of correct memory created by conscience.
It floats and floats. As if reliving a film that had been cut off due to a hangover, Lulin put his fingers to his temples and began to communicate with his brain.
“Ugh?”
Close your eyes and do that for 20 seconds.
I clearly remember telling him to get up alone because he had work to do at Yeongju Castle today. The reason my memory is vague may be because I was preoccupied with something else when I heard it.
A kiss or something.
A kiss or something.
A kiss or something!
I can’t help it because it’s a kiss. That’s a foul. I don’t remember anything I said right after we kissed.
Lulin nodded while humming.
Still, I seemed to remember that he said he would come soon. But not anytime soon. I shouted reflexively, recalling only favorable memories.
“you! “Where can I go quickly?”
Of course, there is no answer back. Feeling helpless, Rurin entered the kitchen, caressing her growling stomach.
And then he grunted again. There is no rice either. There is no rice prepared.
“Ugh!”
Thump thump thump-!
Kicking the floor with your feet. I try to express my anger, but the more I do, the more my feet hurt.
Since you said it was Yeongju Castle, is it in Yeongju Castle?
I thought about chasing after him and causing a scene, but I decided to hold back.
Yes, I am an evolving dragon.
Hehehe.
If you go there and cause a scene, you won’t hear any good news. Lurin had recently learned that it was better to wait and then complain.
Mana can be used to sense that El is within Mana’s search range, that is, within the city limits of Gray City.
But it is impossible to be specific. Mana is just a sense of being nearby, not a radar.
Since you said you were going to Yeongju Castle, it must be there.
Lurin decided to endure for now in order to become a leader.
But I’m hungry.
“hungry!”
I found it while shouting towards the kitchen. A bag lying on one side.
There was also a note there.
-If it’s late, I’m cooking this and eating it.
“Huhhh! “You!”
After shouting to myself again, I felt empty again, so I bit my lip and picked up the bag of Chapa O tea.
You just left a bag of ramen behind. too much.
This really needs to be considered and listened to.
It’s a size that can be compromised about 3,000 times. Anyway.
Lurin nodded to herself and violently tore the bag because she was angry.
That action will only result in the Chapa O Tea exploding from the bag and falling to the floor.
It was a moment when my nerves exploded even more.
I woke up and there was no L.
From that point on, the condition becomes worst. Because if you don’t pamper him when he wakes up, it won’t feel like the day has started.
I feel the worst.
Lurin huffed again and glared at the Chapa O Tea noodles that had fallen on the floor.
I started blowing out any dust that might have been stuck. But soon he realizes that it doesn’t really matter if he sticks around and quits.
I am that kind of being. A body that has no use for poisoning.
So I didn’t even want to shake off the dirt, so I walked to the kitchen, put a pot on it, and installed the fireball.
Then he scooped up water and poured it into a pot.
First, you need to boil the water.
“hungry.”
As I was caressing my stomach and watching the pot slowly heat up, the water began to boil.
“I’m hungry, I’m hungry, I’m hungry.”
While chanting a hunger spell, I threw noodles into the pot. The ingredients are also thrown away.
“Then pretend you’re gone too. Then, pay attention to their first facial expression when they suddenly appear.”
“You mean the first look?”
“okay. “That’s the most important thing.”
Sereina whispered in Lulin’s ear about how to distinguish facial expressions. Lulin nods his head again and again.
“Kkkkkk. Then I paid for the meal. “It didn’t taste particularly good.”
An anxious expression.
L’s anxious expression.
What is that?
miss you.
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you, I miss you.
My head was so full of those thoughts that I couldn’t even respond to Serena’s verbal abuse.
And then Serena disappeared.
It doesn’t matter. Lulin, whose attention was now focused on other things, went straight down to Lair.
Then he sat in front of the mirror he brought from Earth.
“Huh?”
There was a lot of Chapa O Tea sauce on the corners of her mouth, and because Serina touched it after eating it with her hands, it got a lot on her cheeks.
Burning my anger once again. It’s not Serena’s fault that it’s on the corner of her mouth.
It was just an unavoidable phenomenon due to the nature of Chapa O Tea, but it was all Sereina’s fault.
Lulin took a wet tissue and wiped her mouth.
And then I let my hair down again. Long hair falls down.
After applying the lip balm L gave her to her wiped mouth to keep her lips moist, Lurin wrote a note in crooked letters on a notepad.
-Go out and come back!
Very simply.
Afterwards, I went up to the restaurant and placed the note in a visible place.
You can tell right away when El’s mana is close. That it’s coming.
So it’s too easy to pretend it’s gone.
You would be surprised to find out that your mana suddenly disappeared. He told me to pay attention to that expression.
As I was thinking about that and planning my strategy, the sunlight came in warmly. Still, Lurin nodded and lowered her head as if something had entered her stomach and she started to feel sleepy again.
The more you sleep, the better you sleep. The reason I felt sleepier when I woke up late was the magic of sleep.
“Hmm?”
Then I woke up with a start. I reflexively look around.
I think I felt something, didn’t I?
I woke up with that thought in mind. The memo is still there.
Like a fool, I fell into a deep sleep.
I met El in a dream. It was so good that I couldn’t wake up.
Still, I keep my eyes outside, thinking I’m glad they haven’t come yet. And right then, I finally felt Mana approaching.
The time is 5pm.
He abandoned himself and returned only after sunset. It’s really bad.
After puffing up his cheeks, Lurin began the operation.
It teleports away and disappears.
Then he appears again and looks at El’s expression. That was Sereina’s strategy.
Lurin thought that the kiss rejection incident was of no use to L, so she was very interested in that expression.
Of course, in reality, El was really heartbroken over that incident, but there was no way for Lurin to know that.
So teleport.
Rurin moved to the Miliorec Mountains and returned immediately.
“Yay!”
He suddenly appears and sees El.
Lurin found El with an expectant expression. L happened to be in the restaurant holding a note written by Lurin.
This is the time!
Lulin quickly made eye contact with El. But L just yawned and didn’t react in any way.
“It’s hard to move since morning. What are you doing?”
I wouldn’t have felt any mana.
So, Serena said, she must have been embarrassed and had an anxious expression on her face.
But this-!
It was a yawn without any interest. No interest whatsoever.
That alone is sad, but yawning.
So what came out here should have been anger. Especially since I’ve been abandoned all day.
okay. It is right to be angry.
Be angry!
Lurin thought so. Let’s get angry.
But what comes out of my head and my heart is not anger.
It was sadness.
I can’t believe that even though I lost confidence, it doesn’t matter. Lurin, who was momentarily overcome with emotion, looked up at El with tears in her eyes.
