98 – Scene 098# An Uncomfortable Walk

*

Wendy buried her face in Tristan’s arms.

I couldn’t bear to raise my head.

Because I couldn’t look straight into his face.

‘Wendy… . What did this babu say… .’

Regrets flooded in immediately.

finally said it With this, she could no longer hide her feelings.

Wendy closed her eyes tightly.

And on the day of the entrance ceremony, I remembered what Tristan had said in the carriage.

– In 10 years, you will have grown into a better figure than anyone else.

10 years. The time Tristan suggested to Wendy.

The time that I thought was long if it was long and short if it was short has never felt as long as today.

Wendy was nervous.

I was afraid that Tristan would wait for her for 10 years.

In the end, impatience made her courageous.

No, in fact, it would have been nice to say it was a mistake.

Because of her confession, maybe I won’t be able to go back to my previous relationship again.

“… … .”

Tristan was speechless.

I didn’t know what he was thinking.

Wendy just anxiously waited for his answer.

It was then.

drooling-.

“Teacher! What are you doing here?”

“Yes?”

“Did you forget that today is the medicine delivery day?”

“ah? Ahh… ! look at my mind I forgot!”

“Ugh. Come out soon! Everyone is waiting outside right now.”

“Bar, get out right away!”

As the nurse ran out in a hurry, silence fell in the nurse’s office.

Wendy felt like there were only two of them left in the world.

Even then, Tristan had no answer.

Eventually, Wendy, unable to wait, raised her head.

“ship… Count?”

I wondered what kind of expression Tristan was making, but I was afraid.

Tristan’s face that Wendy met with courage was very calm.

He had no worries, but his eyes were closed as if he was asleep, with an undisturbed expression on his face.

Only then did Wendy realize why Tristan was so quiet.

“Count… . Do you sleep… Do you?”

Of course, no answer came.

Hearing steady breathing from Tristan made it clear.

he is asleep before listening to Wendy’s wish.

“Everything, I’m glad… .”

Only then did Wendy feel relieved.

I lost energy all over my body.

It was rather fortunate that the confession of a lifetime had not been conveyed.

Looking back, I couldn’t figure out what I was thinking when I said that.

Relieved, Wendy looked at Tristan’s face.

His sleeping face, which I had seen the other day when I nursed him all night at the hospital.

That face was now in front of her nose.

Tristan seemed to be in a deep sleep and did not even move.

It must have been the accumulated fatigue of the past.

Because he was always overdoing it in an invisible place.

Wendy wanted to comfort him as he fell asleep from exhaustion.

So she reached out and secretly stroked his hair.

His rustling hair felt good. Wendy’s touch was cautious in case she woke him.

“Huh… .”

Wendy yawned involuntarily.

When the tension is released, the fatigue that has been pushed has come.

Come to think of it, she was too tired to sleep.

Adding to that, Tristan’s body heat made him drowsy.

Wendy’s hazy eyes confirmed that Tristan was fast asleep.

Watching her eyes, she slipped into his arms.

A heartbeat could be heard in his chest.

Listening to the sound quietly, Wendy was very relieved.

“Ehehehe… .”

Wendy, wrapped in a happy mood, laughed bashfully without even realizing it.

I wanted to tease him a little more. I wanted to be pampered.

I also wanted to do things I could never normally do because I was sleepy and dreamy.

For example… .

Wendy said in a small voice.

“Count. Wake up…”

Tristan, who was deeply asleep, did not respond.

“… For me, Wendy is a bad kid.”

Wendy put her finger on the sleeping Tristan’s lips.

“Because you’re a bad kid, you don’t know what to do to the sleeping Count… . So please wake up Otherwise… .”

The touch of his lips was soft and warm.

A kiss with him will surely be sweet.

It will be as intense as a dream you will never forget.

Wendy murmured as she exhaled slowly.

“Because I really don’t know if I’m going to do something bad… .”

Wendy looked at Tristan’s lips.

It was very easy to steal his lips while he was asleep.

But Wendy couldn’t bear to do that. I hadn’t even gotten first place in the exam yet. It wasn’t even that my wish was granted.

Eventually, Wendy brought her finger to her own.

He kissed the warmth of his fingers.

Unfortunately, that was the best she could do right now.

Even though it was an indirect kiss, that alone made her heart tremble uncontrollably.

For her, that was bad enough.

“All right, then… . Might do worse… . Then you must dry me off. Count… .”

Wendy thought as she closed her eyes in Tristan’s arms.

I hope this moment never ends.

I want to always be by his side.

“I like… . Count.”

Wendy muttered like she was talking in her sleep and soon fell asleep.

.

… .

… … .

Burr.

Burr.

“eww…?”

Wendy opened her eyes to the sound of a vibration.

Vibrations were coming from above her head.

When she reached out, she touched a hard hairpin.

At the same time, the vibration stopped and Myoheil’s voice was heard.

‘Disciple, are you awake now?’

‘Master… ?’

‘But why are you sleeping in a place like this?’

‘Yes… ?’

How long have you been asleep?

Wendy was alone on the bed in the infirmary.

‘what… ?’

The man who should have been sitting next to her was nowhere to be seen.

Only the warmth in the blankets let her know that she wasn’t sleeping alone.

‘The Count… ?’

‘Haam… Count?’

Myohail said with a yawn.

‘Hmm? When I woke up, the disciple was alone? Are you still awake?’

*

A street in Ludlow, the capital of the Meikahel Empire.

“… … .”

“… … .”

There were two people who caught the attention of people passing by.

One was a tall beauty with a cold expression.

A neat suit made her look neat and moderate.

And next to her was a woman in a black army coat.

I couldn’t see her face well because she was wearing a mask, but her beautiful legs exposed under the short skirt were attracting people’s attention.

Either that or not, she stood there, one leg trembling, disapprovingly.

“Kuhm… .”

It was Blanche who broke the silence.

“Is there anywhere you want to go?”

“… … .”

Helga didn’t answer.

Although ignored, Blanche did not give up and asked.

“Even for a walk with me… will you do it?”

“… … .”

“there… ?”

“… … .”

“walk… ?”

“… … .”

Finally Helga looked at Blanche.

Those eyes were as if Blanche was pathetic about the world.

It was only after seeing that gaze that Blanche remembered the gag in Helga’s mouth.

“Ah, I will free you.”

Blanche tried to free her, but Helga shook her head.

Right after that, she casually undid the gag.

At some point, the handcuffs that were restraining her hands had already been released.

“… Do you know who can’t solve one of these things?”

“Then why… ?”

“Why? It was worn by the Count’s order.”

said Helga in amazement.

“And a walk? Why should I go for a walk with you?”

“That’s because my lady ordered it.”

“… Are you really going to listen to such a joke order? Are you stupid?”

“… … .”

Blanche’s eyes narrowed.

I wanted to tackle something, but I just decided to stop.

“I don’t want to go for a walk with you, the count’s escort. Above all, I do not have the bad taste of walking around with a human on a leash like a dog.”

“… ?”

At first she didn’t know what she was talking about, but Helga realized Blanche was talking about the leash around her neck.

“Whoops… . If you say it’s a pierced mouth, can I pierce another mouth? So that I can speak with one mouth and let it go with one mouth.”

“That’s interesting. Loyal doggie.”

“Because I have a name called Helga, right? You’re an ignorantly tall cat.”

The two laughed and glared at each other.

It was a chilling smile that lowered the temperature around her.

But neither side showed any sign of backing down.

“What? Do not worry. Mr. Cat. Unless the Count orders me to, I have no intention of harming you.”

“Is that so… ? I am more amazed that you have the skills to harm me.”

“Whoops… . Didn’t you just dodge one of my attacks last time?”

At those words, Blanche tilted her head.

“Am I sure I didn’t avoid it? At best, it would have been just a passing glance.”

“So you got hit. Because even brushing against it was a hit.”

At Helga’s words, Blanche sighed.

“It is a wind-pressured wound. I definitely dodged the weapon you wielded.”

“What kind of nonsense is this? Wind pressure is also my attack?”

“It doesn’t hurt even if I get hit by wind pressure, so I won’t hit you with an attack.”

“Wow. You did. Even if I hit you with wind pressure, it didn’t hit you? So, do you want to hit it with wind pressure from now on? really.”

“If you can, try it.”

Blanche shrugged.

Helga glared at her fiercely.

“under… . Really, at that time, you think your life was saved thanks to our count.”

“… … Thanks to the Count?”

Blanche’s expression, which had maintained her composure until then, cracked.

“Yes. At that time, if the Count had not stopped you, you would have died by my hand.”

“Don’t speak as if the man had mercy on me. It is unpleasant.”

Blanche growled.

She could have shrunk at that cold tone, but Helga only chuckled.

“Whoops… . I know everything.”

“… ? What do you mean you know?”

“If you’re jealous, say you’re jealous. Are you jealous that I serve a wonderful man like the Count?”

“jealousy… ?”

Blanche’s face, which at first did not understand what he meant, gradually turned red.

“Who, who is jealous of whom?!”

“Ah, look at how blushing it is. Shame on you.”

“Does this look embarrassing now?! Aren’t you angry right now!”

Blanche was furious, but Helga didn’t care and continued talking.

“Ah, don’t you know how nice it is to have the Count by your side? Last time, I wiped the sweat of the Count who finished his workout. The sweaty handkerchief was taken away… . Oh, of course I secretly retrieved it again. Whoop whoop whoop… . how is it? Aren’t you envious?”

“I am not envious! at all!”

The two had a fight on the street.

Fearing not to get caught up in that scary fight, people hurried past the two.

It was then.

“men and horses! You have to pay!”

A shout was heard from the other side of them.
