69 – encounter (3)

If it’s Rain’s first impression of Hayu…

You will have to go back to the first meeting in the past and think about it.

It all started with curiosity. It was interesting to her to see in person a species called humans that she had only seen in books, and that she was a boy her own age.

After regaining consciousness, he looked at Lane and smiled awkwardly, and Hayu quickly absorbed her.

Thinking about it now, even though they were obviously the same age, he was mature and took care of himself with more devotion than a servant.

Lane loved that.

When he’s with other family members, he’s consistent with a slightly firm expression, but when he’s with himself, he shows a few more expressions.

To Rain, who had no friends to speak of, Hayu might have become a precious existence the more he got to know him.

However, the rift between the two started from here.

The fact that the reason he treated him well was because he was given orders from his family.

The fact that he was tamed in advance because he is a being who will become a member of his family…

Overhearing this, young Lane began to hate the sight of him coming to her room every night.

– Go, no.

-sorry. You were very… disappointed, right?

Again, ask warmly.

– I will wait for you to call me.

As if you know your own heart.

As Lane quietly cried and lay with his back turned on the bed, the boy Hayu said lonely.

-…Do you hate me?

Why do I feel so lonely?

Back then, I should have said no.

-If you bite me, I…

He was about to say something, but he blurted out as if he had said something he shouldn’t have said.

And quietly closed the door and said goodbye.

– I’m leaving.

Then Lane told him not to go.

It was the first time.

Pretty clothes, jewelry, accessories, expensive snacks, top-notch mattresses, top-notch beds, and even a trivial rocking chair… He was the first person to awaken the possessive desire to her, who is basic in everything she wants.

‘I can have it… ?’

It was a little harsh that he was of a different race from Hayu, but it was strangely reassuring to be able to take him through his family at times.

In other words, when Lane’s impression of Hayu is comprehensively summarized,

You should see him as a person who wants to know more, constantly, and continuously.

And if this is substituted into human emotions…

.

.

.

Rain suddenly became conscious that his gaze was on a man named Rezen.

As Bell had told her, her white-haired, beautiful appearance was flawless, both by human standards of beauty and demonic standards.

Princess Iris and her new human servant.

These two will be our first opponents before the standings.

The four of them started with a meaningless voice.

“It’s called Regen.”

“It’s Bell! Please take good care of me!”

“… Iris.”

“… … ”

But it’s not just about looks.

It was those deep, reddish eyes that caught Rain’s nerves.

The eyes are said to be the windows to the soul.

I feel like I’m going to break myself if I make eye contact with him.

I instinctively want to avoid it.

So I quietly closed my eyes and looked at the situation.

However, the moment I opened my eyes to take the elixir, I ended up running into him.

“!”

He smiled brightly at Lane.

“… … ”

bright smile.

Lane’s body stopped instantly.

Is that a pretense that humans have?

Although the atmosphere is completely different from Hayu,

The atmosphere when he held out his hand to vampirize on the last day and smiled lightly overlapped.

A scene of parting that tells the end, not the first meeting.

For Lane, it’s terrible… It is a scene.

-Thumping

Before the play begins, just like in a theater, the surroundings begin to darken.

‘now… silver… !’

Lane’s heart starts pounding.

‘Sorry, sorry… ‘

As soon as I became aware of this, something I had barely sealed started to shake as if it would collapse at any moment.

‘Arein! mental car… ‘

His voice is heard from the depths of his heart.

-Someday… can you let me go

– I’ve lost hope.

‘mi… Sorry.’

-miss. This is the last courtesy I can give you.

-late.

-Even then, you should have let me go! Why are you doing this now, why!

-Lady Rain and I are no longer in a master-servant relationship.

‘Sorry. sorry. sorry i’m the worst… ‘

-go. Come on.

-go. Come on.

“… … ”

And every single word Hayu said to herself…

eat her up

‘Okay, I was wrong… please don’t go Hayu… without you…’

punch your chest

twist the heart

It was as painful as if he was dragging her down into a deep abyss.

‘hahahaha… ‘

When Rain’s switch is about to be turned on in the trauma he’s experienced hundreds of times,

Bell grabbed the back of her hand when she almost grabbed her chest.

“master? Are you okay?”

It wasn’t until the handkerchief was handed over that Lane’s consciousness began to return.

‘hahahaha.’

She cleared her voice and introduced herself calmly.

‘Excuse me. Arein of Aspondel… !’

Our eyes meet again.

Those dark red eyes…

‘Aww…!’

At what point? in which part? Maybe

This is not the bed where she fell asleep crying countless times, nor the carriage where he last appeared, nor his private room, nor the lake where he appeared, so why…

To put it simply, there won’t be a Hayu switch…

However, Rain couldn’t fully understand why Hayu came to mind just by seeing that man’s face and smile.

‘This is the academy, I’m the vice president, and I have work to do for Hayu… You have to come to your senses… ‘

After taking a deep breath, she calmly adjusted her expression.

However, this unidentified man continued to keep an eye on Lane as if to comfort him.

“Miss Arain seems to be unwell…wouldn’t it be better to kiss each other?”

It’s a very sweet voice to hear.

“… You don’t have to worry about it.”

Lane vehemently denied it.

After breaking up with Hayu, I prayed that I would do my best in everything one by one.

This resolution cannot be broken by a single trifle.

In this way, Lane played the vice-president of Lachesis Academy, who is ostensibly everyone’s idol, and comforted herself.

‘…Let’s not get swept away. just a servant A human servant who seemed a little rude… ‘

Lane hurriedly thought of something to say and spit it out to Rizen.

“…Why don’t you drink soon?”

“… Oh, that’s right.”

With that, he turned his head to the side and quickly poured out the medicine.

Professor Broom’s voice came from afar.

-now. The groups that are all ready are about to begin!

.

.

.

In a slightly heavy atmosphere, Bell, who had noticed, stepped out.

“If you don’t mind, can I do it first?”

The eyes of the three gathered there.

Like a college freshman, her attempt to lighten the mood was cute even though she was a classmate.

“I want to ask Mr. Rezen a question!”

-?!

Her fingers were pointed at Regen.

“You seem reluctant to drink the elixir… I hate Iris-sama for choosing this class as a joint class, right?”

Regen responded to the elated Bell with a relaxed laugh.

“Not at all?”

“Huh… ”

When the expected answer did not come, Bell put on a disappointed expression.

Next, Iris opened her mouth.

“…This time I am. The answer is Arain, please.”

“great.”

Iris asked Lane slowly and clearly.

“… The plan is to win the ranking match.”

Lane’s mouth twitched, and soon an answer came out.

“right.”

After answering, Lane looked at Iris and counterattacked with a question.

“In order to win the duel, I changed my servant.”

Iris replied with an expressionless expression as if she had expected it.

“… I can say no.”

For a moment, Lane’s eyes showed doubt, and Bell wrote down questions and answers with twinkling eyes.

And everyone focused their eyes on Regen.

“Is it my turn?”

he said with a soft smile.

“I will ask Belle. Oh, excuse me, but are you sure everyone doesn’t care? This is the academy.”

“… Weird words are forbidden.”

Lane immediately warned Regen.

Belle is a servant, but now she is like her younger brother.

After Hayu disappeared, he thought that he should take good care of her who cared for him with all his heart.

Above all, Bell also had the meaning of atonement because he mourned Hayu’s death.

He said raising the corner of his mouth.

“I met the owner well… How is it?”

“… … ”

At Regen’s question, Lane’s expression darkened for a moment.

Because I could feel the bitterness in his words.

Bell replied confidently as if it were simple.

“Of course not!!! uh what You really hate it? uh? Words are good… master… This!!!”

When she waved her hand, Rezen put on a look that seemed right.

“Is it a false elixir? It seems like the two of you are on good terms… ”

“Arein? It’s the complete opposite! You know?”

“uh? uh…”

It was obviously a question to Bell, but for a moment Lane felt afraid.

For some reason, I feel as if this unknown man from the first meeting is looking at me.

If Bell finds out what I did to Hayu, wouldn’t she leave too? An imagination that I don’t even want to think about.

Contrary to Lane’s feelings, Bell was excited as if he was having fun.

It was because she had come up with a very difficult question, in her opinion.

“It’s my turn again! Rezen-san, you won’t stay still!”

“good.”

“There is someone I like at the academy! none!”

“Bell, such a question… !”

“there is. A lot of that too.”

“… … ”

“… what?”

His immediate answer was calm enough to be calm.

Like someone who drank the elixir of truth.

“How long has it been since you transferred… ! Bar, are you a flirt?!!”

“hahahaha… .”

“Liar!!”

Bell sighs in anger once again, and Rizen looks at her in a cute way.

The opportunity passed to Iris.

Iris’ gaze had been on Lane from before.

Without hesitation, she asked Lane.

“… I regret the past.”

-… …

At that moment, there was a longer silence than before.

The sound of chatter continued to be heard all around.

Everyone looked at Lane with a puzzled expression and waited for an answer.

– Pook

-?

Finally, she lowered her head slightly.

His melancholy eyes sparkled like crystal balls.

Then, very carefully, he spewed out as if he were putting soap bubbles on the surface of the water.

“right… … I regret it.”

“… hehehe… ”

After hearing the answer, Iris shifted her gaze to her notebook.

That’s right, the feeling of chuimsae is a bonus.

The perfect counter punch…

No matter how ignorant a person may be, from Lane’s expression… The answer is derived.

‘master… ‘

Bell probably noticed that this had to do with Hayu.

I didn’t ask because I thought I’d explain later…

Every time I see such a weak side in Lane, who always sets the example for the vice president, I also wonder.

And in the atmosphere that seemed to be more and more subdued, Rain lifted his head as if he had made up his mind.

“It’s my turn… ?”

Her eyes were moist all of a sudden.

It was as beautiful as a sparkling jewel.

“Dear Regen… I will ask.”

-?!

The target is not Iris.

He raised his sharp brow slightly as if curious.

“Arein-nim?”

Rather, Bell opened her eyes wide as if she hadn’t expected it.

Rain looked directly into Rezen’s eyes and said.

.

.

.

“You and I have met in the past.”

Regen’s eyes were dark red.

“Answer me.”

It was as if Hayu’s black was burnt to death by Rain’s red.
