chapter 10
2-4. There is actually not much difference between coincidence and destiny.
***
Kynell has always been like her hero to her.
“I heard from my mom, elves are eccentric!”
“Is that why you are bewitched by boys like that? Something like this fire fox!”
“Oh no! That’s what they want..!”
When she first came to Lavrance Village in her childhood,
Ariel, who became an object of envy for boys because of her beautiful appearance, was being ostracized because of her other side’s envy and jealousy.
“There is no elf among the ten girls~! It deserves it!”
“Well, aren’t they a coward?”
“..It’s not like that! No!”
The forest of the world tree that was burned by the demon king. Because of that, he took refuge in a village that was not friendly to him.
This kind of environment could be taken for granted in this world to some extent.
Her red hair was pulled, and dirt smeared her face. The girls around her were sneering.
“Is it all if you live by trusting your face?”
“Look at this, your ears are disgusting! Kyahahahaha!”
“..Huh.. Black..”
She wept at the tingling sensation. She was resentful of why she had to be treated like this. Her hand on the ground scratched with force.
A situation where no one seemed to be able to help.
“What are you guys doing with a girl!”
At that time, a blonde-haired hero appeared.
“Yellow is out!”
“Are you afraid of Cainel and avoid it? It’s dirty, so avoid it!”
“Let’s go, lucky you! Ariel!”
A boy from Lavrance Village. It was Cainell.
A person with a reputation for being good in the village. He couldn’t just let this happen.
The boy who came running with a wooden stick was like a warrior who saved the princess.
‘Who is that boy?’
As soon as he saw him, Ariel felt something strange when he saw a group of girls running away as if he had never done that.
These were the people who bullied me so much.
“He ran away. Now, can you wake up?”
He hands over to raise himself.
She cried as she thought of her own face.
“Get away from me..”
“Huh..? Why?”
“Because I am an elf. A monster with an eccentric personality.”
She bit her lower lip. A crying voice that had already begun to leak out. Looking at it, Kainel just gave a worried look.
“…”
After a few minutes passed without a second thought, Ariel opened her mouth.
“You.. Don’t like me..? My ears are also longer than others..”
“Yeah, it’s just pretty in my eyes.”
“Uh, uh..? What..?”
“She’s just a pretty girl. Don’t mind me being jealous.”
His face makes the corners of his eyes look like crescent moons while grinning.
There was no selfishness in the smile. The boys who approached her had dark eyes looking at the elves, but I felt something different in his blue eyes.
“These guys are cowards, so they always act in groups.”
“…”
“So, tell me if you want to harm me.”
“Why.. Are you helping..?”
“I hate people who don’t have much to do but show off.”
Looking embarrassed, he scratched his head. In doing so, she healed her wounds with her magic. The feel of her warming skin somehow did not stop her tears.
“Okay, that’s it! I’m glad there are no scars!”
The moment she saw Kynell’s relieved expression, it didn’t matter why she was crying.
Perhaps it was because it had been a long time since I had heard the words of her genuine concern for herself. She couldn’t even remember what face she was making.
Perhaps his cheeks were red.
She must have cried.
She couldn’t have fallen in love at first sight.
“Thank you, Kai..”
That day Ariel met her own champion.
A boy named Kynell.
***
“aaah—! Arm, arm is broken!”
“My legs! Legs!”
“Don’t act too hard. It’s because I was suppressed.”
“Ka, Kai? When did you come?”
He subdued the scoundrels who harassed him at once.
Kinel’s face was filled with rage, almost frightening. She understood why she was so upset.
“Ariel, are you okay? Aren’t you hurt?”
“Huh? Yes! Except that her wrist hurts a little..”
“Give me this, I will heal you.”
While ignoring the two men writhing in pain on the ground, her blonde-haired warrior only looked out for her safety.
The restless eyes. His hair was shaking in front of Ariel.
‘It’s like back then.’
Her cheeks turned a little red. The corners of her mouth were rising uncontrollably. A warm healing sensation. A long time.
“..If it wasn’t for the real Licht, it would have been a big deal.”
Kinel made a small noise as if she had finally calmed down.
At that, she was curious.
“Why Mr. Pugu?”
“I learned something good while training swordsmanship with him a while ago.”
“What is it? Let me know too!”
“It’s a secret. Licht! Thank you for your work today!”
Then, a black helmet was waving from afar. The black knight gave a thumbs up as if he had done well. Looking at him, Kainel laughed.
‘Did that person do something again?’
Come to think of it, when I first met her, she said that she would connect me and Kainel in her carriage. It’s been a long time since Cainel got close to him like this. Drawing her line kept on her mind.
You may not like the sudden distance, but
“hehehe.. You are a real warrior. Kai.”
“When was it fake?”
Ariel didn’t hate that.
Rather, it was because she liked her childhood friend to the point that she wanted to say thank you to Licht. I shrank from the warmth of his hands.
“I always told you to tell me if this happened.”
“You are late! Even if you call me with magic, they just say that you are at the training ground..”
“Sorry, so can you walk?”
For some time now, her legs have been loose. Her powerless body was telling her how terrifying the situation just before was.
“Get up.”
“What, what?! No it’s okay! I’m fine…”
“Don’t do that.”
The body staggered greatly. Ariel, losing her balance, stumbled.
“Hey Yak.”
“It was almost dangerous.”
Her
Her Kynell caught her when she almost fell. When you see it like this, you really look like a gentleman. Ariel’s heart moved.
“..What about Mr. Pugu? Are you going to just leave it?”
“It’s okay, he told me to go. And anyway, Richt and I are roommates.”
“Really? What fate!”
“Sure, like today. Catchcha.”
After talking to her several times, he carried her on his back.
The eye level has become similar to each other. A close-knit sense of distance, as if hugging from behind.
“Then, where shall we take them? Princess.”
Curved tails. Unique good voice. Her ears tickled.
“Go to the girls’ dormitory. Kai.”
Looking at her face made her feel like she would explode, so she tried to avoid eye contact with her. She used to look just fine.
‘You’re tall.’
The touch of a firm back. Kynell, whom she had thought of as a childhood friend, began to feel more and more like a man.
Her heart was pounding.
Kung-.
I didn’t want this small beat to be passed on to Kainel. Her body heat from her back to her chest was warmed by the flow of her blood.
“It’s a bit heavy.”
“What!! Lie! I’m on a diet!”
“Sorry, just kidding. Richt told you to try it.”
“..I almost got angry.”
Has there been a change of heart? The hero was joking, just like in the old days when she played freely.
Yeah, she’s been like this before with him.
Comfortable and thrilling.
More than just friends.
Will I be able to convey this feeling someday? Her troubles deepened.
The moon is waning, and emotions are ripe.
“Thank you. For protecting me.”
“You are welcome.”
Ariel buried her face in Kynell’s back.
***
Kinel made a sound in the distance.
“Licht! See you at the dorm!”
“Go in with Miss Ariel!”
“We’ll go first! Mr. Helm!”
I waved his hand and greeted Ariel and him.
Nothing to say. You’re going to have a lot of trouble in the future.
I only gave you a little help. After destroying all the flags, his original personality comes out.
You did well, Yellowy. I’ll report these bastards to the guards.
To Kynel, I have a certain sense of fellowship.
No matter how much you say you ran away before the ending. Until then, we worked hard together to push for a follow-up, but at least this much can be done. So take good care of Ariel.
My heart became much lighter. No matter how much Is a soybean flour love line.
In , You have to become lovers first, so this would be right.
‘The status window is also working fine.’
[Calculating the achievement rate of the grand route ending…]
After seeing off two childhood friends, a small pink window emerged and showed the results.
[Kynel♡Ariel 21% “NEW!”]
[PS. You are really serious about the saintess route.. Σ(ㅇㅁㅇ;]
Then when did you think you weren’t serious?
‘That’s funny, really. Even possessed…’
I laughed out loud when I saw that phrase. Even if there are other easier routes, I will go there. I will do whatever my heart desires.
‘In the first place, my guild only gathered those guys.’
Where are the users who aren’t serious about game characters these days? Even if you don’t know the reality, you don’t know too much. The creators wouldn’t have played the game at all.
I miss it when I think about it. Are those guys going to break Too?
“..It has risen a lot.”
I was proud to see the rise in love, so when I stretched out, I heard a crunching sound. It seemed that unreasonable results from swordsmanship training would come now. Shall I go to the men’s dormitory by myself?
I’ve been thinking about future flags for several tens of minutes.
At that time, a cold touch touched my shoulder. The sound of water drops echoed on the ground.
Tuk, tuduk-.
Shoot ah ah ─.
“Oh, it’s raining.”
Kinel and Ariel would have gone well. Because magic is a scam Maybe it’s to avoid the rain. The problem was me. I don’t have an umbrella now.
“It really falls like a hole in the sky.”
Is it spring rain? It doesn’t even exist in this world. Even if you run, you’ll get wet because there’s no such thing as mana. The shops around me had long since closed and my feet were soaked with rainwater.
The water has already entered the inside of her face little by little. The fishy scent of the shower tickled the tip of his nose.
Innumerable ripples in a puddle.
As if there was a flood, the surrounding area became a sea of water.
“Oh no, my shoes are all wet.”
I stepped on the wrong one. Should have avoided
The helmet was getting damp. It didn’t dry well either.
I don’t know. Just run…
Huh?
“..What are you doing?”
“Mr. Mardol?”
That’s my point.
The glass knight was spreading his magic and covering my head like an umbrella.
