22 – First Night (2)

“I hope not.”

It wasn’t empty talk.

Do you want Ner’s love?

…Not yet.

However, she didn’t want to be unloved by her lifelong partner.

It wasn’t even something I could do.

Anyway, I didn’t forget from the beginning.

This was not a marriage for my happiness.

It was a marriage for the future of the mercenaries.

In the first place, it makes no sense for the mercenaries to risk their lives for my happiness.

I was just given one role.

Keeping Ner Blackwood stable and settled in the Red Flame Team.

After the war, it was more important than anything else for the Blackwood family to support us.

Of course, just subjugating the monsters is accumulating a huge debt, but Nerra… Expresses it badly and holds hostages to further solidify that fact.

So there is nothing I can do about it even if the marriage with Ner is happy and does not become a mutually supportive relationship.

That’s why I didn’t want that future.

Whoever it was, I wanted a happy marriage rather than a sad one.

Besides that, this is just an assumption.

Maybe eventually she will like me too.

I could fall for her as well.

Nobody can say anything about the future.

There are times when you fall out of love with someone you love like crazy.

Sometimes an annoying person becomes an irreplaceable brother.

All I had to do was put in my own efforts.

I looked at Nere, who was still stiff.

Fortunately, she also felt the sincerity of my words, and she was no longer as wary of me as she was before.

I felt like a stray cat.

Taking her time slowly, I was approaching her.

Even the hair on her tail, which used to stand up to her, has subsided a bit now.

I picked up the cloth I handed to her from her frozen knee.

Ner slowly watches my actions.

It was funny.

Even though she rejects me so much, why is she not hurt?

Maybe she thinks her highly of her.

Despite being hated by his brothers, he sacrificed himself for the family.

Despite his sacrifice, he shows fidelity not to sacrifice himself to strangers.

It seemed like I was getting to know a woman named Ner Blackwood.

I slowly lifted the cloth over her eyes.

For some reason, I wanted to wipe away a little bit of tears.

Is it because they became a couple?

‘Couples hug each other’, ‘Couples comfort each other’… I don’t know if I’m feeling this urge because there are things I’ve heard that make scabs fall on my ears.

…But thinking that even this would be a burden for her now, she ended up handing her cloth directly to her hand.

Ner looked at the cloth I gave him for a long time.

I let out a long sigh.

The story ended here.

“…Let’s rest, now.”

Then I slowly lay down on the bed.

My stomach was bigger than the bed I usually sleep on.

“You were busy today.”

Ner was still on his knees, staring at me, still without wiping his tears.

If I look at her for no reason, I think she will continue to be nervous, I closed my eyes.

Then, she tells her about her thoughts that suddenly came to her mind.

“…By the way, I’m just saying this because I’m sure there will be questions.”

“…”

“I would say I have a relationship.”

“…”

“…You will be comfortable that way too.”

Ner paused, nodding her head.

Of course it would be easier to lie and kiss than to actually have a relationship.

I opened my eyes and confirmed her affirmation.

“And if you can, call me Berg from tomorrow.”

“…”

Perhaps there was still resistance to this, Ner was stiff.

I’m running out of things to say with that.

“…Fine.”

I said my last goodbye.

I didn’t bother wearing the top again.

I had already taken off the uncomfortable robe, leaving only comfortable clothes.

It was a good sleep.

I took a deep breath and gradually let go of the strength in my body.

As I was trying so hard to fall asleep, Ner got out of her bed and started taking off her uncomfortable robe one by one.

Soon, like me, I was standing there, leaving only the comfortable clothes inside… I slowly climbed back up to the bed.

She distanced herself from me, placed a pillow between us, and curled up over her to sleep.

The long day ended just like that.

****

Ner ended her day by closing her eyes.

Contrary to what I expected to be the worst day of my life, nothing terrible happened.

He was fine and innocent.

I wondered how I could have been this lucky.

Even if I tell others, they won’t believe it.

If you married the vice-captain of the human mercenary corps and maintained your virginity on the first night.

From noble mtl dot com

I couldn’t believe it myself.

To be honest, even she had no intention of denying that Berg was handsome.

So, I thought she would enjoy her s*x as much as she enjoyed it, but I didn’t think she would bring up such a caring story.

Of course, I don’t know again.

There are already a mountain of opponents who can quench their s*xual desire, so it may be that you don’t have to release them for yourself.

I’ve heard that she hates women, but that’s not the same thing as women.

It occurred to me that maybe her father’s words were true.

Maybe they are not taking care of Blackwood because they are paying attention to Blackwood.

…But even so, it didn’t mean that such consideration was not appreciated.

Of course, this wasn’t the story that Berg magically got better with this consideration.

Ner’s heart was still full of his grandmother’s words.

The saying that it’s really hard to lose the person you’re destined for.

What she didn’t want to say, what she dared to say.

Perhaps even this was an ordeal to approach the person of destiny.

Being able to maintain my virginity even now may be a revelation that one day I will meet the person of that destiny and fall in love.

The heavy burden on my heart has become much lighter.

Her pressure, which had weighed down her painfully, disappeared in an instant with her berg’s suggestion.

Ner slowly opened his eyes in the dark and looked at Berg sleeping next to him.

It was his face that I hadn’t been able to look at properly before in fear.

Even if I looked at it, I looked at it for only a few seconds and then looked back.

But now I could see it properly.

It was okay not to be scared. Berg was asleep with his eyes closed.

Looking at his face like that, Ner discovered several facts.

It didn’t look as scary as I thought.

It seemed like he was mistaken because of his sharp eyes.

There are a lot of scars, so the atmosphere may have been painted over.

The uneasiness in Ner’s heart may have made him even more frightening.

But if you look at him only with his now and sleeping face, you might think he looks docile.

He was handsome. It’s just that it doesn’t move his mind.

Ner was soon in a rush.

I wonder if it’s because I’m relaxed.

It’s been a really long day.

I suffered too much.

She closed her eyes within seconds.

I wanted to fall asleep warmly under the covers, but… Afraid of waking Berg by pulling the covers, Ner finally covered his tail lightly and closed his eyes.

– Tweet.

Ner’s eyes opened.

The world has already brightened.

No matter how long I slept, the sun was high up.

Recently, it seemed that the side effects of not being able to sleep for a long time due to anxiety came all at once.

Wake up with a refreshing feeling that you have been resting for the first time in a while.

But at the same time, my heart sank slightly.

I didn’t get used to Berg saying that he would treat me kindly.

So she slowly raised her upper body.

-Slowly.

Since when have you been covering it, a flowing blanket.

“…”

…Did Berg cover it up?

It was a question I didn’t know the answer to.

Nere looked around.

There was no one in the room.

Berg had already disappeared.

****

“Faster!”

The Red Flame Team was finishing their final training, raising a dusty wind.

Tactics, individual swordsmanship, and cavalry training were no longer meaningful, so only physical training was pushed to the limit.

In many cases, the difference between being able to run one more step or not is the difference between life and death.

At the training ground, the members were constantly running in the same place.

I was watching it.

This was really the end.

From now on, the Red Flames will have to focus only on recovery.

I had to recover and start hunting bosses.

While whipping the members like that, brother Adam walks to the side.

So far, he had only shown a sinister smile, but hadn’t asked any embarrassing questions.

So now something was coming.

“Ber-“

“-Later. You are training.”

Adam hyung laughs.

“You know what I’m going to ask you for later. I was going to talk about training.”

“…Shaun! Don’t fall behind!”

“Vice… Vice-captain! Save..Save..Heouk…!”

“Run in time to say that!”

Adam didn’t say anything to me.

Just come to my side without saying a word and stop.

I stare at the direction I am looking at.

“…”

And just like that, I stayed still.

“Ha… The weather is nice.”

Because of being so absent-minded, he was making fun of me.

I was holding back the smile that this older brother was being stupid and ridiculous again.

It was a situation where you would lose if you laughed.

– Took.

When I didn’t respond until the end, my brother pushed me with his shoulder.

“…”

I didn’t react.

“Hey.”

“…”

“Hey dude. My brother is calling.”

“Why?”

“…Why, why?”

“…”

“…So?”

In the end he asks.

I burst out laughing. My brother also laughed out loud.
