71 – Block favor

+++

By the time Ron made contact with Lian, Rain and Solar were sitting facing each other in the dean’s office.

Solar was looking at Rain with an expression mixed with subtle emotions that could not be inferred, and Rain was looking at Solar with his usual upright posture and calm expression.

“Rain. Didn’t you say that you were inexperienced in teleportation?”

“Ah. Yes. It was.”

“As far as I know, you can only move alone, and I heard that magic efficiency is not good.”

“Yes. I said so.”

“But the other day, I saw several people moving together? It’s not very efficient, but it was doable, right? Why did you lie?”

Currently, she is in a very good mood. To the point where, no matter what word came, everything could flow away like running water.

It was because the doubt and anger that had risen to the top of his head flew away from Ron’s heartfelt ring gift.

That’s why she was fully willing to forgive Lane for any reason.

If it’s short, it’s short, if it’s long, it’s a long life. Hearing the reason was different, so I asked directly like this.

“Ah… you’re right. Sorry for hiding it.”

An innocent apology is essentially effective in relieving a person’s anger. When that apology was combined with Lane’s unique calm tone, the effect was multiplied.

Whatever she says, it feels like she’s telling the truth. And in fact, more than 90% of what she said was sincere.

“Can you tell me what the reason is?”

“It’s just like I said before. If I’m alone, I can somehow move to the coordinates I want, but the magic efficiency is so low that the more people there are, the higher the chance that I won’t be able to move to the destination.”

“Can’t we just keep using it?”

“Solar. I’m different from you. Magic isn’t infinite, and if you use up all of them, you need to rest for a day or two to recover. There’s a cadet in danger, but you’re absent and you don’t even have a teleportation scroll, so I had no choice but to use it… The results are good, though. But it could have been dangerous.”

“Yeah. I think I said it a little bit harshly. Magical power and mental power are different. To be honest, it was a little difficult.”

“I’m sorry about that. Inseon who will teleport… Huh?”

Lane’s words stopped. Because of Solar’s left hand, which was awkwardly raised as if on purpose.

A silver ring was worn on that slender finger.

Since there is no special decoration, it could have looked monotonous if done wrong, but when worn on the index finger of the left hand, for some reason, a simple beauty is felt.

Lane knows. What is the meaning of wearing a ring there.

“that’s..”

“Yeah, Ron gave it to me.”

As if she had waited, Solar stroked the silver ring. In my imagination, I had already registered a marriage and even had a child.

He looked at his arm as if he had suddenly remembered Lane. It was a gift from him, with some fancy decorations, but for some reason it looks bleak compared to that ring.

“What did you mean?”

“I didn’t say it, but… wouldn’t it be obvious? It’s a ring.”

heh Reign’s eyebrows furrowed very slightly at Solar’s relaxed attitude.

Why am I a bracelet? Did I decide to give my heart to Solar because I was being a burden to you?

Was the confession the problem? Should I have taken a little longer to reach you?

I had an experience of continuing the cold war over a man. It was like that when I fell under the curse of jealousy.

But this time the situation was even worse than before. Unlike the time when the target man had no personal feelings for anyone, it was because he expressed his liking for a woman.

For an instant, Lane’s eyes went blurry. It wasn’t because of tears. The brain that couldn’t accept the shock that was too big caused overload.

That hero, that hero, that lane guard, lost his balance and staggered because of just one man. I was in a situation where someone would snort at me by saying ‘Say something that makes sense’.

“Ah, it looks like you got a present too? A bracelet? It suits you well. I heard you have eyes to see.”

Solar tapped her on the shoulder and said so. His voice with a hint of laughter was particularly nasty today.

Rain, Solar, and Rian know each other’s feelings all too well.

That’s why, during a conversation between women, I promised ‘I won’t hold grudges against anyone Ron chooses’, but when that actually happened, the mental stress seemed to rise.

smart.

There was a knock on the door as if breaking the flow. When Lane answered, the door opened softly.

“hi..”

A weak Lian entered the dean’s office.

“Is something wrong?”

Since Lian usually kept a bright smile, this was proof that something really big had happened to her.

Could it be that there were deaths among the cadets?

Although Lane gave serious thought to clearing Solar’s thoughts about the ring, the reason for her sullen expression was not about injuries and deaths.

“..Ron…”

As if it was natural, Lian, who brought out his name, caught something shining in his field of vision.

A pretty flashy bracelet I hadn’t seen before. No, I liked it.

ring.

A ring caught her eye.

A silver ring with a neat shape, as if a man and a woman whispered their love.

“Oh, did you see it? Huhu.. How is it? Do you like it?”

“Ah, yes, uh, hey, who’s that…”

“Of course it’s Ron, hehehe…”

He gave himself a necklace.

He gave Lane a bracelet.

He gave Solar a ring. A silver ring that fits perfectly on the index finger of the left hand.

“What will I name my child? The last name will be Solar, so I’ll have to come up with a suitable name in advance. I’d like to have three children. There will be very pretty children resembling me and Ron, right?”

“Sol, Solar…? I wonder if that’s too advanced..”

“It’s about having fun in advance. Can you guys think the same? What name goes well with the last name Solar?”

“Le.. Rain, Solar seems to be way ahead of me. How are you.. Huh?”

Lane’s posture was disturbed.

His drooping arms are draped roughly across his knees, and his head is sunk forward. A posture with only the buttocks barely hanging over the edge of the backrest and the distance.

It was a helpless figure that had burned everything and suffered from burning syndrome.

Solar didn’t care about Rain’s appearance… No, as if trying to encourage it more, Solar moved her left hand around and looked at the silver ring from various angles.

“Ron… I wonder if it’s better to hear from Ron himself, why don’t you bring him over?”

“Yeah, well. Do whatever you want.”

Is it a winner’s margin? Solar smiled and said.

Originally, the lane where cookies and tea were served was scattered, so I couldn’t really hear anything.

Today was a day when all three of them were off work – a number of priests and space movement scrolls made by Solar were used – and no one was looking for them.

If it had been someone else, he would have run away, unable to bear the atmosphere of stabbing his stomach.

Maybe it’s because it’s after seeing the real ring, but the ring he forcibly made looks so shabby. Ryan hid his left hand behind his back and sat quietly.

..

Just when Lian was really suffocating and moving her hips, there was an uproar outside. The first year cadets started to return.

‘Please come quickly..’

Ryan prayed inwardly. Rain was distraught and Solar was in a dizzying situation as she continued to make plans for the future.

smart smart smart smart-

A knock on the door resonates in harmony. As if Ryan had been waiting, he jumped up and opened the door.

“Welcome! I’ve been waiting for you!”

“Huh? Uh.. What is this stuffy atmosphere? Why is he doing that again?”

“Come in first! Hurry up!”

“All three of you gathered? What were you talking about?”

Ron, who stepped into the space with only three women and somehow had a heavy atmosphere, casually sat next to Solar.

It was a natural action since it was the only empty seat, but at least for them now, this location selection was a very important act.

‘As expected, he sat next to me!!’ ‘Why are you sitting there..’ ‘Ah.. ahh..’

Ron trembled at the three-color reaction he expressed with his body.

“Why is he really doing this… Lane, wake up.”

“Ah.. ah.. ah..”

“What? I can’t hear you.”

“AA AA AA..”

Lane is already incapacitated. Lian hurriedly got to the point.

“Is the ring you gave Solar real?”

“Huh? It can’t be fake, right?”

As usual, when he told the truth without thinking, Lane trembled and Lian pursed his lips.

“Everything I gave to you guys is real. Aren’t you struggling because of me for no reason? I prepared it with that in mind.”

And words full of thought followed. The mood that had fallen to the bottom rose with a little anticipation.

“Do you have any other meaning besides thanks?”

Ron shook his head in response to Lian’s words. It was a resolute act that seemed to smash the leeway, but there was no good news for them now.

The dying Lane raised her head. In fact, she had been watching Ron’s movements from a while ago with her head down.

On the contrary, Solar’s face started to shade. The first reason was that he was ashamed that all his bullying had gone to nothing.

Rain’s face lifted up and Solar’s face lowered. It couldn’t have been more fun for a third person to see.

“There’s no way I could have different feelings for you in the first place, right?

A chilly wind blew. The person who actually said the words ‘didn’t I say something completely wrong?’ But the other three didn’t, absolutely didn’t think so.

It was right that Ron’s attitude and thinking were problematic.

It wasn’t that I confessed clearly, but if you’re a man with a sense of humor, shouldn’t you realize it in moderation?

In the case of Rain, even though he had already confessed, nothing came back. It means that he only showed signs of caring about her, but there was no noticeable change. As if you were trying to treat it as something that never happened.

Insensitive to favors coming to oneself. It felt like I was blocked in advance saying ‘I can’t be loved by someone’.

If he continued in this state, it seemed that he would go to the grave without even taking his feet off the starting point.

Lane, who has already confessed, but has a precedent that has become something that has never happened.

Lian continued to express his crush, but the other person did not notice.

Solar appeals, saying, ‘You are different from other people’, but the other person doesn’t notice it either.

Each other glances at each other’s jewelry and is lost in thought.

Whoever breaks his self-loathing and insensitivity will be the winner.

I’ve passed Eoyeongbuyeong so far, but now I think I need to seriously think about it.

The three thoughts were in agreement. The thought of healing his wounds and connecting with him.

At this moment when each one’s will was burning, the candle in Lian’s heart, who had directly made a grand illusion, flickered.

The size of the flame continues to grow, fueled by her gloomy past and her memories of the person who saved her.

Of course he didn’t notice.

“Can I have a cookie?”

Ron was the only one who couldn’t read the current atmosphere and their thoughts.
