My Childhood Friends Who I Thought Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me

23. Miss. I can’t accept this

Chapter 23. Miss. I can’t get this

The next day.

“Ah! Finished.”

Tail stretched his body all the way.

She hadn’t even sat down for a while, but she already seemed to be frowning.

Once a month, at the request of the abbot, Tail helped organize the monastery’s books.

Even though Cecilia and Chloe didn’t work much yesterday, today they both said they were busy, so I was able to work comfortably.

I wonder if it’s because there’s no one today, unlike the usual noisy days, strangely, I couldn’t adapt well.

Even Eugene went to make lunch, so the room definitely felt deserted.

‘But this will soon be an ordinary day.’

So I had to adapt somehow.

Tail tidied up the ledger and lifted it up.

‘For now, I’ll have to tell the abbot that everything is done.’

Because moving your body is the best thing to do when your head is complicated.

Thinking so, Tail got up from his seat and looked for the abbot.

* * *

Tale arrived in front of the abbot’s door and knocked on the door familiarly.

Smart smart.

“Come in.”

Permission fell quickly, and Tails opened the door and entered.

Tale said in his usual voice.

“I’m here to bring you all the ledgers.”

“Oh ho. You are late today.”

The abbot, Noha, lifted her glasses slightly and looked at Tails.

That’s also the case, because Tail has never missed a deadline since taking over the ledger.

That’s why he was late for a day.

I was puzzled by the anger.

Then, Tail answered as if it was not a big deal.

“What. Cecilia-sama and Chloe-sama came to play in the room yesterday.”

Noha nodded his head in agreement.

It was so famous how special the two of them were to Tail, so I didn’t say anything out of anger.

Just staring at Tails.

“Why? Are you going to nag again?”

Tail smiled and said, but Noha didn’t accept the prank as usual.

“Tail.”

I just call him in a soft voice.

“Do you know?”

Noha spoke slowly.

“Currently, the Belenus Empire was said to have won.”

“Yes. I know.”

Tails nodded.

And starting with the secret mission led by Marquis Duvir, the Belenus Empire will be completely victorious.

‘I probably won’t make it past the turn of the season.’

Just when Tails thought so, the abbot slowly opened his mouth.

“Perhaps when the war is over, everyone will go back to their places.”

Tale noticed what Noha was talking about.

Perhaps that ‘all’ refers to Chloe and Cecilia.

So he rather kept his mouth shut and listened to Noha’s continued words.

“You’re casually talking to the two of them, eating…” .”

Noha briefly dragged his horse.

“Yes. It’s an expression that doesn’t really stick to my mouth, but I might take it for granted now that I can get along like a friend. But Tail.”

Noha took a short deep breath and continued.

“You should know too.”

Noha’s eyes contained only deep worries about Tail.

Maybe that’s why, Tail couldn’t even open his mouth.

“The moment they leave.”

Noha’s eyes blinked slowly.

“It will be good for your mental health that you completely cut out your memory of those two from that day forward.”

Noha smiled lightly.

There was a strange pain in that smile.

His eyes were thinking of something in the distance.

“Really cruel. Things that can never happen again are painful to keep as memories.”

Is it just an illusion that I felt like Noha’s experience for some reason?

Tale couldn’t answer.

I already knew it in my head.

I have to let these little ones go.

The moment they go, the world that will unfold will be completely different from their own.

However, hearing the story directly made my heart throb, unlike my head accepting it.

‘Ah….’

It was only then that I felt the tail.

He knows that he has already given these children so much affection.

The fact that these children gave him the many memories and various emotions he wanted to give.

Tail forced his lips to curl up.

“I know.”

I forced myself to open my mouth and spit out the words.

Every time I spit out a single letter, it felt like my heart fluttered.

It felt like the blade was cutting through my heart.

“It’s just a fleeting dream. I know.”

But I had to tell you.

You have to tell me to understand this raging heart.

“So. Do not worry. Abbey head.”

Tale smiled.

However, the worry grew thicker in Noha’s eyes.

I saw through his heart in an instant.

“Yes. If you’re having a hard time, always tell me. Your home is a monastery and your family is here.”

“Yes, thank you. Then I will leave.”

Tak.

The door is closed.

“Ha ha.”

In front of the door, Tail let out a long sigh.

My heart was too heavy.

I had no idea how to see Chloe and Cecilia in the future.

‘No. Are you okay.’

Tails pulled the corners of his mouth up and looked up.

‘It’s just going back to normal.’

That’s all.

No problem.

Tale kept repeating those words until he reached his room.

* * *

At that time, Cecilia’s tent.

Cecilia was rummaging around the room.

‘I was somewhere here.’

Cecilia threw everything she had in her grasp and looked for something of hers.

‘My dad told me that there is only one in the world.’

A jewel that even the Marquis of Duvir was hard to find.

A lilac diamond derived from purple, the symbolic color of the Duvir family.

The diamond ring was so expensive that it was hard to put a price on it.

The owner of that precious and expensive ring is Cecilia.

And Cecilia was looking for the ring.

After looking around for a while, her eyes twinkled.

“I found it!”

When I opened the box made of melted gold, the first thing that caught my eye was the jewel embedded in the beautiful ring.

The light purple glittering jewel looked precious just by looking at it.

The part where the finger is worn is made by melting platinum to increase the value of the ring.

“Would you like this tail?”

After being humiliated by Chloe yesterday, Cecilia was deeply troubled.

She wanted to see the surprised look on Tail’s face when she received the gift she wanted.

So today, I asked several workers about Tails.

From what I’ve heard from them, Tail likes money, jewels, and expensive things.

Since she must have already received the gold, she was thinking about giving her something else as a present, and this lilac diamond came to her mind.

‘With this much, I’ll probably break old Chloe’s nose, right?’

How unlucky it was to brag about giving Teil a gold rose yesterday.

She really would have beaten her if she wasn’t the princess.

‘Now I can see Tail’s happy smile!’

Filled with her anticipation, Cecilia immediately took her diamond and headed out.

To find the tail.

* * *

Tail was not far away.

Because I was sweating and running right in front of the monastery.

To increase physical strength through exercise.

That was what Tails did every day when he had free time.

She was, of course, in order to control her feelings of being insanely depressed, but Cecilia, not knowing that, laughed out loud.

She

She and she waved her hand at him.

“Tail!”

Her tail smiled awkwardly as if she had found her.

And she ran straight towards her.

“Tail~”

Cecilia tried to be hugged as usual, but her tail slightly avoided it.

“Ah. I sweat a lot.”

Tale smiled awkwardly.

However, not noticing her unusual smile, Cecilia puffed out her cheeks.

“Huh. I also like the smell of tail sweat.”

But Tail smiled lightly and refused.

“I don’t think I can. Didn’t you say you had work anyway?”

Cecilia’s face brightened at Tail’s question, which turned her back.

“Tail! I brought you a gift!”

“A gift?”

“Yes! Expensive and good!”

At the same time, an ominous feeling wrapped around Tail’s body.

Couldn’t this guy have pulled out the pillars of the Duvir family?

At the same time, Cecilia took something of her own from her arms and handed it to Tail.

“Whoops!”

Even the case was pure gold.

Tail opened the case with a slightly stiff expression.

Inside it was a ring with a brilliantly colored jewel.

Looks like an expensive ring.

A ring that you would never have even if you worked all your life.

Tale was silent.

At the same time, Teil was able to realize the difference between her and her own place.

She is a noble.

She herself is just a commoner.

That fact was more directly felt through this ring.

However, Cecilia, not noticing Tail’s unusual appearance, smiled.

“Are you surprised by Tail? Huh? This is very expensive! Good things! Expensive!”

“….”

When her tail didn’t answer, Cecilia tilted her head and shook her tail’s sleeve.

“Tail?”

Then Tail closed her case.

Then she gave it back to Cecilia, smiling awkwardly.

“My lady. I can’t get this sorry.”
