86. Catfight (2)

“Why, why are you crying?”

Even Tia was taken aback. I didn’t expect Sepia to suddenly burst into tears like that.

“Tia, why are you making people cry?”

Even Tesya looked back and forth between the two, not knowing what to do. Sepia glared at Tia without saying anything. It was a groggy eye.

Tesha hurriedly handed Sephia a handkerchief.

At this rate, it seemed that Sepia would be crying until Edan returned.

Then, not only Sepia but also Tia would be in trouble.

“No, sepia, what are you crying about doing well?”

“me… , Hehe, uh, it’s unfair. No, when I get old, I get personal attacks saying that my breasts sag… , Tea, pretending to be nice, it’s not like I’m pretending.”

Sepia’s words did not follow because she was sobbing. Tesha patted Sepia on the shoulder.

“My, why do I have to get caught and attacked even with a child I haven’t even given birth to yet?”

“Three, Sepia. do not Cry. I honestly think this is Tia’s fault. It was too much that I even went to personal attacks because of my appearance and personality.”

“no! What did I do wrong… . First, the fertilization is sepia… .”

It was unfair to Tia. However, Tesya lowered her head and patted the crying Sepia while urging Tia to apologize with her eyes.

‘Tia! First of all, apologize.’

After reading the shape of her mouth, Tia struggled to part her lips. Anyway, Tia also wanted to settle the situation before Ethan arrived.

“Mi, I’m sorry. sepia. I guess I went too far… . But Sepia will argue first… .”

“Tia!”

“I-I’m sorry! Tesha! Why is Tesha on the side of Sepia?”

Sepia still had her head down. Because of that, I couldn’t see his expression.

“It’s all my fault. How could a human like me take care of a child… . I’m just afraid I won’t even get married.”

“Sepia, no! What do you mean by sepia? Sepia is so pretty and kind! Ooh, can we stop getting up?”

The meeting was headed for catastrophe. With Tesha’s support, Sepia kept wiping away her tears.

“I-I’m sorry! sepia!”

Tia hurriedly grabbed the two of them as they left the front door.

“Well, I guess it was my fault. Do not go. It’s been a while since we all met… ! Me, I was too harsh. Sorry!”

Sweating out, Tia continued talking. On the one hand, I felt unfair, but I wanted to somehow rectify this situation.

“… Promise me you won’t make personal attacks or mention marriage of convenience again. Please don’t insult even my unborn child.”

“… That, oh, I see! I will never attack you like that again.”

At that moment, Tia saw a smile blooming on her lips in sepia. And I instinctively realized.

All of this might be a big picture in sepia.

‘under… . got hit You were political sepia.’

But I couldn’t get the words out of my mouth. Tesya, a third party, was already siding with Sepia.

“Sephia, Tia apologizes like this, so why don’t Sephia apologize too?”

“Uh… . I’m sorry too… . Tia.”

“Okay, since everyone apologized, shall we go back to our seats?”

Tesha smiled awkwardly and clapped her hands.

When I returned home, the atmosphere was gloomy. It seems that even a storm has swept away once. Hessia glanced at the situation from behind me.

“what? what happened?”

Tia looked a bit unjust, and Sepia’s eyes were red. Above all, Tesha looked very tired.

“ha ha ha! Oh, nothing happened.”

“okay?”

“sure! Ethan, can I help you make dinner?”

Tesha wanted to somehow escape between the two of them. So, somehow, I tried to help Ethan prepare dinner.

“No, I’ll just make it. Everyone sit down.”

I was thinking of making chicken.

After all, when people gather, it’s chicken for dinner. It was also ambiguous to receive help from those who came as guests.

I coated the chicken and fried the chicken. Soon, a savory smell filled the room.

When I glanced toward the living room, silence continued as if everyone was practicing silence.

‘what… ? Did they even fight while I was gone?’

Somehow the atmosphere was unusual. Even if I asked him, it didn’t seem like he would answer.

“Dad! It smells delicious!”

“Yes, Hesia, you can look forward to it.”

“Uh!”

Is it because he saw Hessia after facing the gloomy atmosphere? how to say Looking at the innocent eyes, it seemed to be healing somehow.

There were five people, so we fried five chickens.

As expected, one chicken per person is the truth.

“I hope everyone likes it.”

There was no dish called chicken in this world. Seeing as there are no pizzas, hamburgers, or cokes, it might be natural.

Because modern chicken was made by the grandfather of KFC in the 20th century.

Then, why is there a sandwich made by Count Sandwich in another world? I honestly don’t know. Is it because the sandwich is relatively easy to make, or is it because some goddamn motherf*ckin’ writer made a hole in the probability.

It’s not once or twice that probability has been in a serial car accident.

Anyway, Chicken, Colonel. With eyes filled with anticipation, I even offered the special seasoning.

“What dish is this?”

Sepia picked up a chicken leg with suspicious eyes.

“Chicken. It’s fried chicken.”

It was the first time everyone saw the food, and they were unreliable.

“Come on, let’s eat.”

I moved the chicken legs to Hesia’s plate. After taking a bite of the chicken, Hesia’s eyes widened.

“Masit!”

It was difficult to understand Hesiah’s pronunciation because he was mumbling. However, Hesia smiled brightly. Each one picked up a chicken leg.

After all, chicken is chicken legs.

Crisp.

Sepia took a bite of the chicken leg. I dipped the sauce and took another bite.

game over.

Sepia’s eyes were already colored with joy. Not only Sepia, but Tesha and Tia also widened their eyes.

“what? Why is this delicious?”

“uh? What is it really? Is this the first time you’ve eaten while running the upper management?”

“What’s this? It’s crispy and warm.”

Everyone seemed to like it, so I was satisfied with everything. It might be a while, but I thought it wouldn’t be bad to beat them all up and sign a contract with Hergé to sell chicken.

I also picked up chicken legs. It is the first chicken to eat after coming to this world. Tears seemed to flow. For a while, I was absorbed in my meal without speaking.

“Hey, Ethan. But what I said earlier… .”

“yes? What did you say earlier?”

I thought carefully about what Tia had asked. But I couldn’t quite get my head around what he was talking about.

“Hessiah needs a mother… .”

“Ah, that! I thought about it while shopping, but I don’t want to entrust the role of mother to anyone. I was also trying to tell Hesiah not to call me daddy anymore.”

I went to the academy, but I didn’t want to be misunderstood as a married man or an unmarried woman.

“Dad?”

“Hesiah, why don’t you call me Ethan in front of people now instead of Dad?”

At my words, Hesia’s pupils shook.

“Dad… , isn’t that your dad?”

Oh, how did you explain this?

The hatchling of an indigo dragon has the intelligence of a four or five-year-old child the moment it is born. Compared to human growth, it grows quickly, but it was still difficult to explain the reason to a child.

“How do I explain this?”

I sent a rescue request to Tia with a hint of help.

“Hessiah, Ethan is not married yet. And in human society, if you’re not married and have children, everyone thinks it’s strange. So if you don’t want Ethan to get into trouble, you can’t call him daddy. Do you see what I mean?”

Despite Tia’s kind (?) explanation, Hessia was puzzled.

“Why is it so difficult to explain?”

“Sepia, what is difficult about my explanation?”

“Hessiah, Ethan prefers to be called Ethan rather than Dad.”

Hesia’s expression brightened at Sepia’s words.

“Dad, do you like Ethan better?”

Blue eyes stared up at me.

“uh? Yes.”

“Then, I’ll call you Ethan!”

There was such an easy way. Hessia’s reaction made Sephia extremely elated.

That night, Tia’s room.

On a night when Crow, the crow, was also asleep, Tia carefully reviewed what had happened today. Sepia’s acting and politics were nasty enough to make me sick.

But there was something more troubling than that. Rumors had been circulating about the Lynchester family since July.

‘Are the rumors true?’

Ethan and Sylvia were about to get engaged. There was no way to know the details, but rumors circulated in the social world. In conclusion, it would have been a big rumor if they were engaged, but it didn’t happen. It meant that it failed.

In fact, there were rumors that there was talk of a marriage between the two, but it was ultimately discontinued.

‘But, there was a ring on the ring finger of Ethan’s left hand… .’

The ring looked old, but it was obviously of high quality. There was no way Tia of the Grand Council could not recognize the value of the ring.

‘Even the seal of the Lynchester family was stamped on it.’

wedding and old rings.

Perhaps the ring was a keepsake of Sylvia’s mother. Did you give your mother’s keepsake? A hypothesis formed in my head.

‘no way? Did Sylvia and Ethan make a personal covenant?’

It may not be because of the covenant, but it could have been just a gift from Sylvia to her disciple, Ethan.

‘In addition, Professor Sylvia brought Ethan as a socialite partner.’

Whatever it was, it was proof that Sylvia had feelings for Edan.

‘Maybe, Professor Sylvia may be in love with Ethan… .’

Sylvia was beautiful.

It was said that he had all the talents, but most of them agreed. There was also a good family name.

As for Sylvia, there was nothing to be inferior to Sepia or Tesha, the princess.

Ethan was such a disciple of Sylvia.

If Sylvia liked Edan, and Sylvia actively seduced him, there was a high probability that Edan would pass over.

Then, Ethan might marry Sylvia as it is.

When her thoughts reached that point, Tia grabbed her chest area and breathed heavily.

‘What is it? What is this feeling?’

Obviously, he had decided to support Edan. However, as soon as I thought that Ethan might get married, a part of my heart became painfully uncomfortable.

‘I… , I guess he wasn’t longing for Ethan.’

Feelings for the first time in my life. I had never wished for anyone so fervently. Soon, Tia came to a conclusion she didn’t want to come to.

‘ah… , I guess I was in love with Ethan.’

Then, somehow, I became depressed. If Ethan married Sylvia like this, there would be no place for him to enter. It was the same for Sepia and Tesha.

‘Oh, sepia. It wasn’t the time when we were fighting among ourselves… .’

If Ethan said he liked Sylvia, there was no reason to stop them.

‘… The three of us must somehow keep Professor Sylvia in check.’

In conclusion, I had to make Ethan like the three of them. That way, even if Sylvia and Ethan get married, they have a chance.

‘… I’m fine with being your second… .’

It would have been nice if it was the first, but it didn’t matter if it was the second or the third. I even thought it was cheap if I thought it was a price for noticing my feelings late.

Tia just hoped that she wasn’t too late.
