I Became an Academy Mechanic Genius

244 – Sephilia (3)

For the past week, I have always set aside my evening time.

This is to have dinner together as promised for the wedding with the princess.

However, the hour or two I spent with the princess was like golden time.

As the devil’s invasion becomes more and more intense, some countries eventually fall without the empire’s hand.

As a result, many civilians had to be sacrificed, so it was not very comforting to watch images of the world I lived in while having dinner with the princess.

······But I am not an absolute being.

No matter how much you have the power to defy the physical laws of this world, and even if you have advanced technology that seems to control the world, you cannot save everyone.

In the end, if the ruler who controls the lives of ordinary people does not actively cooperate, many victims are bound to occur.

For this reason, this time spent with the princess may have been the time that changed the lives of thousands of people.

If I had been busy and worked non-stop, my life might have been saved.

Among the lives that have been ruined, there may be many good people with tremendous potential.

“Puhahahaha! I really like this video too. “Life in this world is truly full of enjoyable things.”

But I ignored all those possibilities.

I chose to save this girl who was discovering the joys of the world for the first time.

Sephilia, a distant descendant of my colleague, inherited Orserk’s cursed magical eye and has never seen the real world.

‘It’s a tragedy that started because of me…’

My comrade who aimed to strongly rally humanity while I was sealed by the Duke of Hell thousands of years ago.

The companion who used most of his power to create the Demon Eye was able to establish Orserk and rule over all humans.

But in return, he had to clone himself to his children.

Because of that, he stopped loving his children from generation to generation.

Also, the ability to see the essence of the world made up of numbers gave him powerful control, but at the same time gave him a curse that prevented him from fully enjoying this world.

Any technology, any object, or any person is nothing new and becomes boring.

‘I hope only you will be saved. I hope you can be happy without carrying thousands of years of memories.’

So I chose.

Rather than being faithful to the purpose of saving humanity… I decided to fulfill my personal duty.

I decided to break the chain of curses that had caused me pain for thousands of years, and that pain was passed down from generation to generation.

“Puhahahaha! Those nasty things! In the end, through their clever trick, my friend suffered! I really like the entertainment show called Infinite Challenge! Next time, Lord Fix—”

But then.

The princess’s face was startled when she turned her head towards me.

She said in an embarrassed voice.

“······Why, why do you see it that way? “With such a disgusting face.”

···It’s a disgusting face.

It may seem that way.

It must have been like an uncle looking at his nephew.

But the sight of Sephilia learning the joys of the world for the first time was lovely.

Orserk’s magical eye, princess, cursed fate.

The princess, who finally returned as an individual named ‘Sephilia’ after putting everything aside, was pure and clear.

“···Since Her Majesty the Princess was happy, I guess I was happy too.”

“······Uh, hmm?”

“Now I feel like I am doing what I left unfinished, and my heart is at peace. “A thought crossed my mind for a moment that I should have set up a place like this a long time ago.”

“···· Everything! You are stating the obvious! Huh! Poetry, it is a natural number and order for a subject to assimilate to the joy of the monarch!”

I don’t know why she was embarrassed, but Sephilia tried to hide the fact that she was embarrassed by asserting her authority as princess.

However, even her appearance was so cute that she couldn’t hide her smile.

“Ugh… Stop making that disgusting face.”

Then the princess blushed and turned her head to the side.

That reaction is cute, but it makes me want to keep teasing her.

Nevertheless, considering that she was the princess, she decided to respect herself at this point.

“······I guess you like that delicacy called popcorn. Should I ask you to bring out more popcorn and cola?”

“Keuhum!”

The princess still turned her head and held out her empty popcorn container to me.

Eventually, I went out with a bucket of popcorn and asked the lady waiting outside her door to give her some more popcorn.

The court lady popped her popcorn and gave me a cola in her ice glass.

When I entered her room again, the princess was fanning her hands.

“Your Highness. This is something called caramel popcorn.”

And I gave the princess caramel-covered popcorn instead of the original butter popcorn.

The princess, who smelled the sweet scent of caramel, immediately showed interest.

“Oh… This looks pretty tasty too.”

“Try it. “In the world of celestial beings, it is a popular product that rivals butter popcorn.”

“······.”

Sephilia swallows her saliva.

Finally, she picked up her caramel popcorn and popped it into her mouth.

He moved his cute little mouth.

Soon, he looked like a kitten tasting chur for the first time.

As expected, when I am nearby, the power of the magical eye is suppressed and I can feel the pure taste.

“Ah, it is a very magical delicacy. “Try eating gyeong as well.”

The princess seemed to like the caramel popcorn, offering me popcorn as well and pushing her popcorn container.

However, when I declined the popcorn, saying that I had already eaten a lot in this world, the princess gave me a sharp glare and said,

“Until then, wasn’t she the only one enjoying delicious food? She feels bad because she feels like she has all the delicious food to herself. “Byul, Gyeongdo, come closer here… And pick up this rice, a delicacy.”

The princess turned her cloud-like fluffy hair round and round with her index finger and glanced at me.

This is a habit she learned while spending a week with the princess, and when the princess feels embarrassed, she twirls her cloud hair.

It was very worrying and yet cute to see the Orserk family, who are supposed to control people, showing so much emotion.

I walked closer to the princess, appreciating her smile that was trying hard to bloom.

Just leave the distance where the popcorn container can be placed.

I started watching the video with the princess.

However, for some reason, the princess did not smile much after she started eating her popcorn with her.

She had a nervous expression and she could only eat wagu and gu popcorn.

***

Another week has passed.

Now I’m used to watching videos from another world while eating something with the princess.

We were watching a video while eating seasoned chicken on a table.

It became natural to dare to pretend to be a princess.

“···Lord Fix.”

At that time, the princess, who had gracefully put down her chicken bone, looked back at me.

When I saw her, she lowered her gaze slightly and said, her face blushing.

“···I decided. I will marry you… No more, no less… Just stay with your true wife like this for just one hour a day. “When I’m with you, I feel like I can breathe.”

···I heard the princess’s words as a confession.

They say that if you are with me, you can breathe easier.

Even though I had already told the princess that I wanted to marry her, her eyes were fluttering like a lake in a storm.

Like a girl waiting for an answer to her confession.

·····I had a certain intuition, but did the princess give me her heart?

“···I am devastated that you embraced my lowly family even while openly breaking the rules of marrying nobles. “I will sacrifice this body for the sake of Her Majesty the Princess and the infinite glory of the Orserk Empire.”

However, at this point, I gave the answer as someone who is an official and public servant.

This is to remind the princess that our marriage is merely a transaction based on interests.

“Ah…”

At this, the princess sighed unconsciously and looked at me with her empty eyes.

Unable to hide her bitter expression, her once colorful expression began to turn colorless.

That expression was a hurt expression no matter who saw it.

– Thrilling!

Her heart throbbed.

When I look at the princess’s wounded face, why is her heart beating so fast and hurting?

···According to the original plan, the princess should remain in the role of the boss of the pants.

Completely excluding the feelings of love and affection, she should be left with only the legal functions that a true wife can have.

Because that is the bill for my desire to embrace four women at once.

‘···No.’

But for some reason, I couldn’t see the princess’s hurt face.

Because of me, she inherited Orserk’s magical eye, and she was forced to live a life unable to communicate with anyone.

···At this moment, I realized that I was sympathizing with the princess.

Just as she held me in her heart while having dinner with her every day, I also came to embrace her princess as her pitiful human being.

···It was a love that bloomed from sympathy.

“And, there is something I would like to add.”

It shouldn’t be like this because of

.

However, the legal functions of the wife should be left without giving her heart.

I revealed my honest feelings to the princess.

It was an answer to a confession that was not her confession.

“It was also a great pleasure for me to spend the evening with Her Royal Highness. Choosing what food Her Highness would like or what video she would enjoy watching was one of the few enjoyable moments for me. …I would like to continue to share this brief happiness with Her Majesty the Princess.”

“Ah…”

As I gave my heart’s answer, the princess’s colorless face began to take on color.

Her watery eyes looked at my face.

Her sorrowful eyes were looking towards my lips.

“Well, if you’re going to get married… shouldn’t you at least kiss…?”

Sephilia came closer and closer to me with her blushing face as if it was about to explode.

But instead of pushing her away, I waited for her to come closer to me.

As I felt her hands wrapping her arms around my neck, I naturally hugged her too.

With my eyes closed, I accepted her lips touching mine and shared our breath.

That’s how I am. I accepted the princess’s first kiss.

······It tasted like seasoned chicken.
