I Was Confessed to by the Golden Sun

41 – The Language of Lemon Blossoms..

In conclusion, Lucía stabbed the raised bat directly into Francis’ head.

No, more accurately, she attempted to stab it.

“To actually try to stab someone’s head with a bat… you’re a bit unhinged,” she remarked.

Francis dodged the bat with a flexible movement, still desperately holding onto my hand.

It didn’t take long for Lucía to forcefully snatch Francis’ hand, causing it to fall.

“From Francis’ perspective, it’s only natural for him to be desperate.”

He’s trying to create a new path, but because of the ruins, he can’t properly do anything, which is understandable.

With construction imminent, the plan is to quickly discover something hidden within the ruins and, if there’s nothing, to push it away.

Right now, there aren’t enough people to proceed properly.

“There are so many documents suggesting that something is hidden in those ruins..”

Although dismissed as mere conspiracy theories, it would be a burden for her to push away a place where rumors of something hidden are rampant.

The reason they’re trying to involve us is probably to secure the manpower for a thorough investigation.

“Alright, we’ve said what we needed to say. Take some time and think about it!”

Francis turned off the power to the projector, which was playing a video, and slowly passed by our side, bowing his head.

It’s just like Francis’ dialogue style in the novel.

Get straight to the point, minimize small talk.

“I’ll pretend to not know anything about what happened today!”

And, to top it off, adding a threatening remark at the end.

Even just reading it as text was annoying, but it’s even more frustrating to actually witness such a conversation.

“Hey! Who do you think you are, touching someone else’s man and going wherever you please!”

Although irritated for completely different reasons, Lucía was also jumping around in anger.

But even so, when Francis ignored us and disappeared into the place we had entered, Lucía hesitated for a moment, then…

“Eek!”

She forcefully pulled my arm and tightly embraced me with her arms.

“Wait a minute! Your chest is touching me!”

Of course, it wasn’t just Lucía’s hand that was making contact with my arm, so I panicked and shook my arm to try and get rid of it.

“Tsk..! We can touch and do everything later, so what’s the big deal! Just stay like this!”

For Lucía, who was already quite disgusted because of Francis, the fact that her chest was touching someone else was less important than anything else.

It was more important to remind myself that I was his by staying close to him.

“But, I’m not okay..!”

With my arm wrapped tightly around my chest, I feel a faint sensation in the softness, making my mind go blank.

To put it bluntly, I am a true newbie who has never even held a woman’s hand on Earth.

Because of my focus on studying, attending a prestigious university, and serving in the military, women seemed like mythical creatures.

That’s why this sudden stimulation falls into a category that is challenging for me to handle rationally.

-Sigh..

Nevertheless, I exerted superhuman patience and started singing the national anthem in my heart, ignoring the sensation I could feel on my arm as much as possible.

Although it has been over 8 years since I left South Korea, that frozen part still lives and breathes inside my heart.

Thanks to that, it felt like the just-raised K9 self-propelled howitzer. is returning to its original state.

“Phew..”

While I was escaping from this crisis situation and catching my breath.

Lucia’s embrace in my arms seemed insufficient, so now she was stretching her arms out and trying to hug me.

“Not now, after everything is done, I will hug you to my heart’s content.”

Pressing my fingertip against Lucia’s forehead, I signaled Raoul, who seemed to be asking if he could take a fluid core from me.

“..I’ll go, you wait here.”

Upon hearing that, Raoul swallowed his saliva and slowly began approaching the core.

“Just once, okay? I won’t bother you until we leave!”

Of course, Lucia simply wanted me and didn’t care about any of that.

I don’t know when exactly I started willingly allowing Lucia to embrace me, but well, it’s not that bad. Let’s just think that good things are good.

“Well, can’t help it. Just once, then.”

“Yah-hoo!”

Unable to escape Lucia’s sparkling gaze and pretending to resist, I spread my arms wide.

Lucia enthusiastically hopped towards me and hugged me tightly.

“hehehe, Jack. Try this.”

Putting a lemon candy in my mouth was just an extra.

Come to think of it, I ate all the candies you gave me last time. If it’s okay, I should ask for more.

I wonder if just hugging Lucia right now would make a hundred candies come out.

In the moment when she was contemplating about plundering Lucia’s clothes once the party was over,

“Jack, do you know the meaning of the lemon flower?”

Lucia brought up the topic of lemons.

“There are flowers for lemons too?”

I asked with a slightly puzzled expression since it was the first time I had heard of it.

Lucia made a cute expression as if she wanted to show me something adorable and lightly grabbed the part of my tie that was hanging around my neck.

By the way, since Lucia often played with it, my tie had already become loose, so when she grabbed it, it stretched easily.

“Ah.”

Lucia seemed slightly flustered, maybe because of the change in intensity, but she soon smiled again and whispered into my ear.

“It means sincerely longing for you, hehehe…”

For a moment, I stiffened my body at her actions and the words I heard, then Lucia leaned back and stuck her tongue out at me.

On her tongue was a lemon candy of the same kind that I was eating.

Lucia rolled it in her mouth for a moment, then made a mischievous smile and said.

“I really love you, I can’t live without you anymore.”

“Gulp.”

She made a sweet love confession.

Although I felt it when I received the ring, unlike the confession during our graduation from middle academy, this confession contained absolute sincerity.

However, this time, I noticed a slightly relaxed expression on her face, probably because I had already accepted her ring once before.

“Me too.”

When I answered with a hesitant voice, Lucia widened her eyes as if she didn’t know I would say such words.

“This crazy person.”

After uttering a short sentence, she looked at me with a surprised expression.

She’s like this when she becomes a little more honest; how coldly did I treat her in the past…

“Jack, let’s sleep together once today. I just can’t bear it anymore.”

“..Pardon?”

But the words that came back exceeded my expectations and jumped several steps forward in pro

She was burning so intensely, but he didn’t know how to calm her down.

The only thing that had managed to calm down the wildly running Lucia had been the bright light pouring out from the core.

When he turned his head to look in that direction, Raul appeared as if he had successfully switched the core with the Gumiho’s essence.

The operation to capture the core was successful, so Raul no longer had to hurry.

“Raul, can you come out on your own? We will continue with the operation.”

The important thing we need to confirm is that there are no variables in the process of obtaining the core.

Since Raul had successfully obtained the core, we have to leave this place now.

It will take time for Raul to coNT*Rol that power, and in the meantime, we need to stop Silvesta from going wild.

“Let’s go, Lucia.”

Once again, I recalled the operation and sent a signal to Lucia before trying to move, but unexpectedly, Lucia stood still, raised her hand to her waist, and extended one hand towards me, as if demanding something.

“Give me your hand, is that what you want?”

I sighed deeply, firmly took Lucia’s hand, and pulled her towards me, but she still didn’t move.

Seeing Lucia standing still like a stone, I wondered what I did wrong.

Lucia tapped her cheek and spoke.

“Give me a kiss. Since I heard you say you love me earlier, my feet won’t move.”

Ah, what am I supposed to do with such a cute gesture in a situation like this?

Normally, I wouldn’t listen to such a request, but it’s somewhat urgent right now.

I should remember to not let her say such things during urgent situations in the future.

Slowly approaching Lucia’s cheek, I thought about making sure she doesn’t do this during emergencies later on, but…

“Eek!”

Lucia suddenly turned her head and grabbed the back of my neck, pressing our lips together.

Unlike the light touch last time, this time it was a deep kiss, with just the tongue not entering.

While strok

Lucia held my immobile shoulders in both hands and teasingly licked all over my mouth.

“hehehehe, I’ll give you permission later, won’t I?”

Finally, she lightly licked my lips and gave me another quick kiss, then dropped her head with a satisfied and demanding expression.

Before I could say anything, on the verge of exploding with embarrassment.

She cleverly ran back to where we had entered and spoke.

“Hurry up! If you don’t come, I’ll leave you?”

I noticed it, but I couldn’t move for a while, my body stiffened.

Someday, I will definitely give that arrogant Golden Sun a good scolding, that’s what I promised myself inwardly.
