Chapter 238: White Plum Blossoms (1)
The night deepened and a calm dawn that was not suitable for the battlefield approached.
Ferzen and Yuriel, who had built a warm bonfire to fight against the cold of winter with their mutual affection, were lying in bed together, sleeping.
Rustle-!!
To be exact, Ferzen and Yuriel had to wake up from sleep several times.
Ferzen’s reason for tossing and turning, being unable to sleep was because his right arm, which he had intentionally left unattended even though his left arm had been pierced by a needle to make way for the saline solution in order to distract his attention from Lizzy’s curse, kept bothering his recovering body.
If he knew beforehand that it would be like this, he thought he would be better off using sleeping pills a long time ago. However, his reason for not taking the help of sleeping drugs was because he thought that Yuriel would be worried if she saw that he couldn't even sleep without the help of drugs. Now, he could only smile bitterly inside as regret washed over him.
On the other hand, Yuriel, who had been woken up from her sleep repeatedly because of Ferzen, reached out towards him while looking sadly, who was once again forcing his eyes to close and pretending to be asleep.
“Can’t sleep......?”
“......”
Since Ferzen had no idea what kind of answer he should give to that question, he just turned his head, opened his eyes, and quietly let out the sound of his breathing.
Creak-!!
As if Yuriel wasn't expecting an answer in the first place, she carefully raised her upper body and moved her hands to her voluptuous breasts.
Rustle-!!
Rustle-!!
Then, along with the sound of buttons being undone one by one, an even stronger peach scent began to permeate around the hospital bed.
When all the buttons were finally undone, her breasts, which had an overwhelming mass, gently bounced, creating a sultry atmosphere around her that overshadowed all the elegance that had been instilled in her for many years.
“They say that if a crying baby listens closely to their mother’s heartbeat, they will stop crying and fall asleep.”
“......”
“I’m not saying you’re my baby, but...... Wouldn’t the heartbeat of a woman who has been the closest to you for a long period of time, be enough of a help?”
Yuriel herself knew that what she just said was an extremely absurd statement. But she suppressed that thought as she hated the fact that she could only watch him not be able to sleep properly by her side even more.
Rustle-!!
Yuriel then laid her upper body down again, took Ferzen's face with her hands, buried it in her chest, and then gradually decreased her breathing.
She did that to make the sound of her heart reach Ferzen just a little louder.
“......”
In the meantime, Ferzen, who had his head buried in Yuriel’s bare chest, remained still for a while. Then he unconsciously moved his head and settled into a comfortable position.
Yuriel’s body heat, which he could feel more clearly than before as well as her unique and familiar body odor were surprisingly able to calm his obsession which had been running around like a child who does not listen to their parents’ words.
......Of course, that was just how Ferzen felt psychologically.
Her body scent, which was transformed into an incense, had some kind of aphrodisiac effect on him. Thanks to that, some of his urges were diverted towards his sexual desires.
However, as Ferzen was someone who had always had a strong mental power, with just a little bit of that leeway, was able to drift into sleep peacefully.
“......”
Yuriel smiled faintly as she watched Ferzen in her arms slowly closing his eyes and starting to breathe evenly.
In her head, the man called Ferzen was someone who was reluctant to seek support from the width of a woman's skirt.
However, as she watched Ferzen falling asleep with his face buried in her chest like a child, Yuriel was filled with a very mysterious maternal love.
Today is the day when the full moon will rise.
So, even if he adhered to the doctor’s advice to not drink nor smoke, he had an intuition that when tomorrow morning arrived, he would once again come to this place in an even worse condition. But, it would be because of a different cause.
There would be nothing more pathetic than an owner being bitten by the dog they raise.
No, it would be rather fortunate if the dog only bit.
Ferzen let out a long sigh as there was a chance that he might be eaten.

Snap-!!
Not long after the snow stopped, rain started to come down as soon as the cloudy sky passed the noon point, creating icicles and hard frozen roads.
Then, in the hut she had been assigned, Laura touched and broke the sharp icicle hanging on the small hole in the window and raised her head.
If the cloud continued to cover the sky like this, the full moon that would rise in the night would also be covered.
This meant, that when her curse came to life later in the night, her consciousness would not be completely swallowed up.
Thinking that at least the emaciated Ferzen wouldn't be in so much danger compared to when her consciousness was fully gone, Laura went to finish the ‘Mixture’ she had turned her back from.
* * * * *
Snap-!!
Laura, who had summoned one of her corpses and made it hold the umbrella, left her tent and took careful steps.
Wooosh-!!
Although the rain was falling hard to the point that it was hard for anyone to see, Laura, who was being escorted by the corpse, looked like a beautiful fairy thanks to her small body and her white hair that fluttered like snow. Because of that, she immediately caught the attention of the soldiers who were standing on guard.
However, in order for Ferzen to not be in trouble, she had to take measures to avoid Yuriel hearing about it.
Laura used her magic power to create a truly transparent and smooth sheet of ice through her corpse.
She then used the mirror-like ice sheet’s angle of reflection to easily escape the gaze of the soldiers looking at her.
Immediately after, Laura arrived in front of Ferzen's tent. However, when she tried to open the tent to go inside......
“......”
By chance, she made eye contact with a soldier who was passing by.
Night was fast approaching.
If a noble lady who came together with the arriving supply unit were to visit a man's barracks at that kind of time, she would inevitably be seen as someone who had wicked intentions in the eyes of a third party.
So wouldn't it be better for her to take a step back for a moment?
Even though Laura thought so, strangely enough, she didn't want to do that.
Technically, she was definitely his woman.
How long does she have to act like a stray cat?
So, after Laura intentionally gave the soldier who was looking at her a seductive and sexy eye smile, she confidently walked to the tent and entered.
Her swaying and shaking hips that didn't match her petite body made her look like nothing but a sow.
Because of that, the soldier who was looking at her was unable to take his eyes off her or move away for a /genesisforsaken
