132 – Truth (6)

Fortunately, the acquisition went smoothly.

At first, the guards and knights didn’t believe me.

The situation changed when Tyria stepped forward and persuaded them.

After listening to Tyria’s story with a serious attitude, the knight commander said with a serious expression.

“Let’s get ready to head to Hellwood Forest tomorrow.”

Half of the guard. And most of the Templars.

At this level, it was a fight worth fighting for.

After the cooperation request was over, we returned to the dorm.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Tyria approached me and bowed her head.

“Thanks to Seohyun-nim, I was able to deliver the situation safely. Thank you very much.”

Tyria lowered her head to the point where I was embarrassed.

Her then calmed her down with her shy smile at her.

“No. You suffered more.”

Then Erina, who was next to me, clung to me.

A hostile attitude toward Tyria.

And the act of blocking me as if trying to protect me.

Then Tyria carefully lowered her head.

“That… Miss Erina?”

“…”

“Thank you. Thanks to that, I was able to safely ask for help.”

He frowned in displeasure at the thanks.

But when I snapped my hand, the dissatisfaction melted away.

“Erina. If you say thank you, you should accept it.”

“… No, I do not want.”

Erina rebels in a low voice.

Even so, he couldn’t smile as he held my hand.

Where can you find such a dual appearance?

But the moment you try to turn your head thinking that you have done well.

“Hey, Miss Erina!”

Rather, Tyria raised her voice and approached Erina.

Having a bad feeling about her, I tried to stop her.

“I want to tell you one thing.”

It’s already too late. Tyria continued her speech.

“I know what Erina-sama is worried about.”

“…”

“I just want to thank Seohyun-nim. I never thought of it more than that.”

Are you trying to draw a line in your own way?

It’s something an ordinary person would say he would understand, but move on.

To Erina, the words were tantamount to hurting her.

“You mean you had a strange imagination with Seohyun-nim…?”

“No. I mean never.”

Erina’s vigilance only deepened.

There was no way the situation would get better.

Just when the atmosphere is about to get serious.

“Miss Tyria!”

Celica suddenly interrupted.

She smiled and held out her hand to Tyria.

“Do you like tea?”

“Ah, yes…?”

Tyria made a puzzled expression at the sudden question.

Then Celica grabbed her hand and pulled her.

“There is a tea that can only be drunk in Tarn Village. I will prepare it for you!”

Strange behavior no matter who sees it. But I was able to figure out the intention.

He’s trying to take Tyria out to defuse the situation.

‘As expected, Celica is quick-witted.’

Thanks to that, I was able to drop the two before a fight broke out.

After Celica took Tyria, only me, Erina, and Kayla were left in her room.

“Erina. Is there anything you want to eat for dinner?”

“Roasted wild boar!”

“Yes. Let’s ask the innkeeper.”

Erina’s favorite whole roast wild boar.

This is the food that comes out whenever you ask what you want to eat.

I could say that it was her only interest that she always liked and loved me.

“First, wash up quickly before dinner.”

“Can we take a bath together?”

Of course I shook my head.

Erina complained in a voice full of aegyo, perhaps feeling sorry for her.

“I really enjoyed yesterday…”

Kayla, who was next to me, spoke to herself as if to listen.

I tried to keep it a secret, but as soon as I met him, he revealed it right away.

“Can you just take off your clothes like last time?”

“No. It’s only this one time.”

I’m sure even Erina knows that no.

Still, the reason why she bothered to check once more was clear.

“…”

Kayla quietly bowed her head.

But her face had turned earthy.

As much as she’s been without her, she’s been through so much.

Kayla seemed to need an explanation.

“Erina. Take a slow bath.”

“I’ll be back as soon as possible!”

Erina headed straight to the bathroom.

After she left, as soon as she closed the door, she felt a shock behind her back.

Unlike three days ago, the hand holding me was strong.

“Kayla. Wait for a sec.”

The moment she looked behind her, Kayla’s golden eyes met her.

Eyes that are wet as if they will shed tears at any moment.

Then he asked me in a trembling voice.

“Master, did you sleep with Erina-sama…?”

“No. Absolutely not.”

“Then we bathed together…”

She couldn’t lie.

As she nodded reluctantly, the grip on her waist grew stronger.

“Didn’t Erina-sama forcefully take them in? I know.”

“No.”

“Yes… ?”

“I gave permission first.”

A statement that is half right and half wrong.

He had no choice but to bathe in the name of praising Erina.

After telling her the truth, Kayla couldn’t hide her sad expression.

“Then me too…!”

“I’m sorry.”

How could I hate Kayla and her mixed bathing?

I wanted to do as much as I could. But I couldn’t.

Because of Erina, not anyone else.

They’re always monitoring and stalking me, so I’m sure they’ll find out.

Because I want to prevent a bloody fight between the two from happening like before.

I always had to force her to make her concessions.

That fact was known to Kyla as well.

That’s why I thought you wouldn’t be able to refute my restraint.

“My lord.”

“…”

“Sorry.”

Kayla moved closer to me on tiptoe.

With her mouth open, her tongue rolls into her mouth.

Has Kayla ever been so active?

She always waited for my permission, she impatiently clung to it.

“Sorry… I’m sorry…”

She parted her lips for a moment, then continued her kiss with her voice of apology.

Unfortunately, that time was not long.

As she catches her breath, she pushes her away and grabs her shoulder.

She tried to come towards me but she stubbornly pushed me away.

“Stop it now.”

“…”

“Kayla. Get off now.”

Even though she said it twice, she didn’t fall.

So far, I understand. Isn’t it a three-day reunion?

Still, she waited, thinking that she would hear her soon.

However, an unexpected answer came.

“No…”

“What…?”

“Why do you only treat Erina-sama warmly? !”

For the first time, Kayla complained to me.

Only then did I realize that I was mistaken.

In the meantime, Kayla has only been patient.

Every time I bumped into Erina, she just gave in.

Before I knew it, I was taking that fact for granted.

Despite knowing that she is full of complaints.

With the excuse of being busy, she couldn’t pay attention because she couldn’t help it.

“I adore my lord…”

“I know. I like you too.”

“Then, couldn’t you like me more than Erina-sama…?”

“Kayla. I am…”

Maybe you don’t believe me?

His voice was still full of resentment.

Contrary to usual, questions that troubled me continued.

“Do you like gray hair… ? Or do you hate women with big breasts…? Or not…”

The way he hangs on while spouting words longing for affection.

It was as if Erina was talking about her.

Looking at Kayla, her dizziness came.

‘I don’t have time for this right now…’

I didn’t even have time to accept complaints now.

It was urgent to explain the situation and make a plan.

But Kayla seemed unwilling to listen to me.

She was, but she couldn’t be harsh with her.

It was my fault that the situation came to this point.

I had no choice but to listen to Kayla.

I could even feel the presence of people outside.

‘…Looks like he’s listening.’

Celica and Tyria head to the lobby of the inn to enjoy tea time.

He must have been eavesdropping behind the door to find out when he returned.

Even if Celica said that, what on earth would Tyria think?

“Haa…”

It was literally like shit.

***

“Lady Celica. What the hell is this…”

Tyria was taken aback by the sound of crying in her room.

As far as she knows, Erina and Seohyun are lovers.

But I can guess from the conversation over the door.

Seohyun and Kayla could not be seen as ordinary colleagues.

Isn’t it different from the scene of an affair that we’ve only heard about through rumors?

What’s even more surprising is the fact that Celica just listens calmly.

No, she was rather sad.

Then she held Tyria’s hand and whispered quietly.

“Mrs. Tyria. Would it be all right if I ask you a favor?”

“What is it…?”

“Please don’t tell anyone what happened today.”

At Celica’s request, Tyria couldn’t keep her mouth shut.

Erina and Kayla. And Seohyun.

What kind of relationship do the three of them have?

And why is Celica condoning this situation?

That the nun who enshrines her goddess closes her eyes even when she sees the scene of her affair.

If that wasn’t enough, is he trying to make himself an accomplice?

‘As expected, humans are scary…’

Tyria’s heart was charred.
