159 – good dreams – 2

Two bottles of Good Dreamer on the table are emptied and placed on the floor.

The wine, which goes well with the bittersweet chocolate, was so sweet and cool that I wondered if it would make me have a really good dream.

“Then shall we stop here for today? Let’s go to bed now. Lacey. Can we take her to sleep?”

Lacey stared at Veronica for a moment, who seemed to be very drunk, and smiled brightly while holding a wine glass, nodded her head and fell asleep, then woke up again and drank and smiled.

She shrugged her shoulders as if she had something to say.

“Yes. Well. It doesn’t matter. I have something to say.”

“That’s good. Come on. Let’s get up then.”

Lacey showed us to our room. When I stopped in front of the pretty good VIP room in the mansion, Lacey tapped on my door.

“Tomorrow I will not be at the mansion because I have to go out for post-war work. I’ll tell Lerayman, so if you need anything, go get it. Oh. And I’ll bring you a few boxes of the finest chocolate so you can eat as you go.”

“Thank you for that.”

“I got more from you guys. Veronica.”

“Ugh~”

“I’m thinking of sending chocolates to the church as a gift this time too. That’s enough for a sacrifice to God, right? Of course, I’ll prepare a separate offering.”

“God, the father of all of us, accepts anything as long as he puts his heart into it.”

“That’s good.”

“It’s God~”

Veronica tries to speak in a heated voice. If you leave this alone, it will keep talking, so let’s put it to sleep quickly.

“Veronica? Go to bed now.”

“Uhuhu~ Are you sleeping together?”

“Yes. Yes. Let’s get up now.”

“Ugh…”

With Lacey’s support, Veronica stumbled to her feet and then naturally fell into my arms. She rubbed her face against my chest like a charming puppy, then looked up at me and hugged me tightly with her long arms.

“Ehehe~”

“I’m excited.”

“There must be a lot of good things. I will carry this one. Where should I go?”

“Follow.”

He hugged Veronica like he had done before. Seeing Veronica wrapped around my neck comfortably in my arms, Lacey gave a strange smile and led the way, stopping in front of the large room.

“Okay. Then come pick up Veronica here tomorrow.”

“Yes. Veronica.”

Veronica shook her head and held her arms around my neck. Doesn’t look like sleeping. It seems that I do not want to close my eyes tightly.

“Hey. Open the door.”

Through the door that Lacey opened, I laid Veronica on a fairly wide bed, and she finally released her arms that were clasping my neck.

“Huhuhu. Thank you. Hyunwoo.”

“Have something like this.”

“Yeah. No. I always think about it. Thank you always. And…”

With a smirk, she whispered in my ear.

“Thank you for not being swayed by the prostitute.”

“Uh… No. I prepared for it. And he’s not really my taste…”

“Ugh. Then what’s your taste?”

A soft, sweet voice.

The scent of chocolate and wine in your breath.

Veronica slowly removed her lips from my ear and collapsed onto the bed.

As she lay down completely defenseless, I just stared at her without saying a word.

“Your room is right next door… Do you want to sleep here?”

Lacey, who was watching us, said a word.

“no it’s okay.”

Veronica, who could hear the sound of her breathing, patted her head once so that she could sleep well, and I turned around.

As I left the room, Lacey watched me go with her arms folded before opening her mouth.

“Have you changed?”

have changed

In fact, nothing has changed.

I just took off what I was covering and faced reality.

***

Lacey stared intently at the sage entering the room.

When she saw the sage and Veronica after a long time, she couldn’t help but be a little surprised.

He knew that Veronica liked the sage.

Of course it wasn’t a bad thing. To her, the wise man was her benefactor and close friend, and Veronica was also her benefactor and friend.

Both of them look good on each other, so I always thought that it would be nice if the two of them would be happy together.

But the problem was the sages.

He always kept his composure no matter what.

It was huge but quiet like a snowy mountain on a snowy day, and it was so quiet that it was hard to find a ripple like a wide lake.

Calm in any accident, unswayed by any temptation.

Whether that’s so bad that a woman as attractive as Veronica clings to it, or sends a favor.

He didn’t change anything.

However.

He was different after meeting him for the first time in a long time.

The wise man with Veronica by his side seemed calm as always, but he couldn’t fool the eyes of Lacey, who had acquired the skill called ‘Eye of Truth’ by holding his doppelganger in the past.

okay.

The wise man was obviously conscious of Veronica next to him.

I don’t know what happened in just a few months.

Maybe he was staying at church and something happened.

The important thing is that he was the only one who could notice the shaking.

That’s also true, because the sage also has considerable acting skills, so it’s hard to notice the change easily.

Even Veronica, who was right next to him, didn’t seem to notice.

“Hmm.”

then.

Isn’t it ‘common sense’ for those who support the two to push a little here?

Returning to her room, she sat down at the table and looked at the bed.

With the hood she was wearing on her head set aside, a beautiful woman breathing with her beautiful silver hair spread.

White legs peeking through the slit in the nun’s uniform, and voluptuous breasts that the nun’s uniform couldn’t hide.

A narrow waist or slender hands.

From many perspectives, it was so enchanting that even a woman could feel her charm.

“Veronica. Let’s change some clothes.”

Lacey approached the bed calmly and tapped her. Is it because I’m drunk? Veronica, who had been lying down with a red face, slowly got up and smiled.

“Huh? Whoa. Hmm? Lacey. Why are you in my room?”

“You’re very drunk. Now, drink this.”

Lacey, who took a sobering pill from the cupboard and gave it to her, didn’t open her mouth until she saw Veronica gulping down her pills.

“What happened?”

“Puh… what happened?”

“Tell the sage.”

“uh…”

I still don’t know Lacey. Veronica thought for a moment, then nodded and told me what had happened in Trevor’s town.

“…Huh. Then the real sage is resurrected?”

“yes.”

Nod, as her small head swayed back and forth, Lacey thought while stroking her slender chin.

In the meantime, Veronica, who had changed into the pajamas Lacey had given her and put on a white cardigan, sat on the bed, proud of herself.

“Isn’t it amazing? Being resurrected after three days of death…”

“Ah. Of course that’s great, too. Veronica. Ever since the resurrection of the sage, haven’t you ever thought that he’s a little weird?”

Gulp, at Lacey’s words, Veronica swallowed lightly without realizing it.

the weird part?

There is one.

Unlike before, he feels a lot like avoiding himself.

Of course, I have no intention of letting him go, but to be honest, it was quite heartbreaking to see the wise man gradually distance himself from Veronica, who was sincere with him.

That is.

It was an anomaly that occurred after the resurrection of a sage Veronica knew.

“That’s right…”

“Why? Do you have any idea?”

“The reason the sage avoids you in my view is.”

“…”

“I think it’s because I’m conscious of you.”

“… Huh? What do you mean by that?”

“As far as I know, the sage said he had never been in a relationship before. I don’t know if he didn’t or didn’t.

I’m just happy to say that.

Veronica smiled involuntarily at the feeling that her cheeks were burning and her insides were itching.

“Does the sage keep that distance from other women?”

“uh…?”

Closing her eyes, Veronica recalled what had happened while she was with the sage.

Come to think of it, there is no

After hearing Lacey’s words, I realized that I knew more clearly.

The only thing the sage changed his attitude was himself.

When dealing with the women he met after being resurrected, Hyeonu took the same attitude no matter who they were.

“Why. Boys tend to get a little stiff in front of a girl they like.”

“…..”

The same thing happened in the orphanage. It’s like playing a prank on a girl you’re interested in, or intentionally trying to keep your distance.

Veronica trembled at the thought of such mischievous boys.

“Well, then…”

“I think so.”

“However…”

Hyunwoo has a wall in his heart?

As long as there is…

“…Wait a minute.”

Veronica remembered a story that Benedict III had told the children in the orphanage long ago.

Legend has it that there is a bird called the Phoenix.

When death is near, a bird that burns its old body and obtains a new body from the ashes.

I suddenly think of an old story to make those in despair rise again.

what if.

Perhaps.

perhaps.

Hyeonu had said that his strength weakened a bit after his resurrection.

I’ve said that since the blessings and curses I’ve been hoarding are gone, I might have to get some back and use equipment to replace them.

At that time, I just thought it was like that and moved on.

what if.

What if the wall of the mind, which is a mental illness, has disappeared?

As soon as I got to that thought, I lost my mind.

“…I’ll check and come back.”

“okay.”

Veronica jumped up from her seat and went outside.

And immediately went back to the room and asked urgently.

“Where is Hyeonu’s room?”

“Next room.”

“thank you!”

Shutting the door hastily, Veronica took a deep breath.

What if it’s real?

As he was resurrected, the wall in Hyeonu’s heart disappeared.

What if Lacey’s opinion that he is self-conscious is true?

Then everything that has happened so far will be explained.

What if the thing that stiffened a little every time you approached was just the tension of the approach of someone you have a crush on?

What if the hardened expression on his face, as if he was forced to smile when he laughed with himself, was because his heart was pounding in front of me?

“Uh. What should I do?”

Hyeonu was conscious of me.

I’m so happy, I like it so much

My heart is excited.

I want to open the door right now and approach Hyeonu.

Like a runaway golem that broke down, his heart wouldn’t stop.

The pounding sound resonated through the mansion, and I wondered if everyone was listening to my feelings.

Standing in front of Hyeonu’s room with a hot face, wondering if it was because she was reminded of it, she stopped knocking on the door.

What if you are sleeping?

Maybe it’s just waking me up?

No, what if Lacey got it wrong?

What if it’s simply a reinforced mental wall?

Wouldn’t it be bothering him to call him at this late hour?

“Ah. aaa…”

Why doesn’t the courage that overflows when you go to smash the heads of devil worshipers doesn’t spring up now when you’re about to knock on this door?

Veronica covered her face and stomped her feet, not knowing what to do.

“what?”

“Oh, it’s a surprise.”

Then the door burst open.

Apparently, some time has passed since the drinking party broke up earlier.

And Hyeonu drank quite a bit, so why wasn’t he sleeping?

But such a question.

As soon as I saw Hyeonu’s face, the tickle in my chest disappeared like snow melting.

I’m just happy, I’m just happy

Veronica, as always, took the tickle and expressed it.

“Eh, hehehe.”

“Ehehe what. Can’t sleep? Shall we talk?”

Hyeonu pointed to the room without thinking about it, and Veronica hesitated for a while before asking softly.

“Didn’t you sleep?”

“It’s not like that… I slept and woke up.”

“Um. Then, would you like to go for a walk in our garden? I woke up too…”

Gently, I held Hyeonu’s hand. how will he react?

Shall I blush? Or will you take it back?

Either that or…

Can’t stand it, will you drag me into the room?

perhaps.

perhaps.

For a very short moment, Veronica imagined dozens of situations and smiled, and the wise man smiled as always.
