86 – Hunt Festival (2)

“I’ll pretend I didn’t say anything. I think I’ll hate being with you, Bocchan.”

She said with a straight face that Charlotte, who had been smiling her brightly until just a moment ago, changed her attitude like flipping her palm.

There was no big reason why she changed her mind, it was because of a woman by Adele’s side who suddenly joined her.

“Then I won’t be together.”

It was a quiet answer.

Unlike Sylvia, who openly kept others in check, these words did not contain any emotions, and were simply words that accepted Charlotte’s will.

It was innocence more frightening than malice.

Just as she can’t blame a child who doesn’t know anything, she couldn’t do anything about Anastasia that Charlotte couldn’t figure out her intentions.

“… ….”

Gaze crossing in the air.

She looked at Anastasia’s blank eyes without hostility, and Charlotte, who was looking at them, felt weak for no reason.

Haa, she sighed and she opened her lips, which Charlotte had been holding tight.

“So what is he?”

“It’s Anastasia.”

Charlotte frowned at Adele’s introduction.

“Don’t you know I’m not asking that.”

“I am a team member who will participate in the hunting festival as a chaser. We just didn’t have enough heads. Did I have to explain this?”

“Why didn’t you answer that way from the beginning?”

“I tried to be a bit grumpy because you said you would hate being with me.”

“You are evil.”

She said it in a joking tone, but it was true that the situation was not very pleasant.

She was thinking of taking part in the hunting festival and spending the rest of her time browsing her stalls, but she can’t just kick Anastasia out.

It would be all right if Anastasia let herself out, but apparently she didn’t.

“The festival must be fun.”

“I thought you weren’t interested in festivals or anything like that?”

“It was because I was alone. You are not alone now.”

No matter what she says while looking at Adele and her eyes glancing around her, she seems intent on enjoying the festival with Adele.

“… ….”

But Charlotte didn’t like it, and she didn’t feel sorry for it.

She had already heard from Adele about Anastasia.

She lost her family at a young age and lived alone.

She shed tears, saying that she had been lonely. She felt sorry for what she said.

I don’t understand why she needs Adele to be by her side, but as much as her story is a story, she thinks that even Charlotte is weakening her heart.

“… ….”

So Charlotte separated Adele and Anastasia, as if she was allowed to accompany her, but not more than that.

The jealousy was so blatant that Adele broke out in laughter.

He’s a thoughtful guy no matter what.

Although she may be jealous, she doesn’t chase Anastasia out of spite.

Isn’t she so cute that she finally sees her compromise and takes the seat next to her?

“Why, why are you laughing?”

I don’t know the reason for her laugh, but Charlotte, who was embarrassed for some reason, patted Adele’s side with her fist.

“There is no particular reason.”

“There is no way you can laugh for no reason.”

“You can laugh for no reason.”

An unassuming conversation.

A conversation for the sake of conversation.

Anastasia was thrilled to see the two of them by her side when she had her family one day when she felt like she did too.

“…… ?”

It wasn’t.

Feelings of unexplained stuffiness filled her chest, and she felt like she was about to become depressed.

It’s quite different from the feelings she felt when she lost her family, but somehow similar…… It was a feeling Anastasia had never felt before.

“Why are you doing this?”

I wondered if it was that day, so I tried to calculate it, but it hadn’t been long since it was over.

That said, even if you want to feel sick, there is no pain anywhere.

“Anastasia, what are you doing when you suddenly stop? Where are you sick?”

“No, I’m not sick… ….”

“Is that so? If you feel unwell, tell me. Don’t get sick and collapse like last time.”

Seeing Adele worrying about herself with her Charlotte by her side, the frustration intensified and her Anastasia nodded while holding her breasts.

“Yes.”

Anastasia still couldn’t figure out why her body was like this.

Walking in the garden behind the academy, I felt like I was alone, even though I wasn’t alone.

“It’s boar meat…… I’m sure you’ve never eaten.”

“I’ve had it once in a while, but it feels a little strong in the scent of raised pigs.”

Lucy pursed her lips as she watched Kyle and Veronica go ahead.

She received an offer to join the hunting festival, but it is no different than a folding screen to fill the head count.

There.

‘Wow, who is that woman again?’

This time there is no room left on the other side of Veronica.

I don’t know when she started dating, but she and she were because a woman who seemed friendly to Kyle was clinging to her arm like a cicada that was left of her.

“Then what about rabbits? Have you ever eaten a rabbit?”

“I’ve eaten rabbits too. It tastes like chicken.”

Yes, I understand.

She’s caught and roasted a few times on her mountain for Kyle, who sometimes helps her with her farming work.

I still remember how she munched on her bones as if she was hungry from her work.

There was a time when she just looked at the rabbit meat with an eye patch because she was so happy to see it…….

“You want to try it? Shall we catch it this time?”

At that time, I just hung my head down and ate and didn’t say anything special like that, so why did I do nothing in front of those women?

That conversation mixed with muffled laughter was quite annoying to Lucy.

In her temper, she broke a twig she picked up from the ground in half.

“Ouch…… !”

Lucy, who had been calming her bubbling stomach, frowned at her.

When I examined her painful palm, I found a fairly large thorn stuck in it. When I pulled it out, blood gushed out like water from a fountain.

“Ah, why can’t things go well?”

“What, are you hurt?”

Kyle, stopped at her Lucy’s moans, looked at her and asked.

“Yes, there must have been thorns.”

“Ugh, you should have been careful with that.”

Kyle turns around as if she thought she wasn’t seriously hurt.

I heard you were hurt, but isn’t that just too insensitive?

With that in mind, Lucy was about to wipe the blood off her and leave her scarred palm, but then she stopped thinking about what she had heard.

─That means it could be infected.

The words Adele once said in her infirmary.

Lucy looked at the branch she was holding in her hand.

Her Dukji Dukji Her dirt is on her, and she’s so rotten that she breaks easily.

I can’t see it, but it looks like it’s full of germs.

Lucy quietly took out a bottle of water and splashed it on her soiled palms.

As the soil was swept away, the wound was slightly sore.

“Ehh…… Adele takes care of this as well.”

A word like a lament that suddenly popped out.

Lucy was startled by the words she had spat out, and covered her mouth with his hand.

“…… Me, what?”

Adele takes care of this too, doesn’t it?

Doesn’t that mean that Adele is better than Kyle?

Then Lucy shook her head in denial.

“No. It could be better no, it’s better Nowadays.”

The person who bullied his childhood friend and himself.

Even if those dark colored glasses cover your eyes, you just can’t tell the difference between colors.

Because you don’t become blind, you can properly see and judge what you see beyond that.

Lucy looked at Kyle.

His back was moving away from him.

He doesn’t pay attention to how much he hurts, and he walks away happily talking.

In Lucy’s memory, Kyle was her closest childhood friend, but in reality it wasn’t like that.

He is moving away.

Whether it be physical distance or mental distance.

“… ….”

Are there curves in the sunglasses?

I thought it was close, but why does it feel so far away?

Lucy smiled dejectedly at the sudden skepticism.

“Yeah, what. Things like that happen, too.”

Who would you blame?

You are the one who didn’t notice, and you are the one who lags behind.

He should have known long ago that he couldn’t live like he did when he was young.

“Sniff, I suddenly want to drink.”

Like that, Lucy trudged down the hill pretending nothing was wrong.

As we were going down like that, the lanterns on the street that had finished preparing for business in the dark academy were starting to turn on one by one.

Now I see, only the garden where Lucy is is dark.

* * *

“… ….”

As I was wandering the streets full of people on a cool evening, there was one figure that caught my eye among the crowd.

I couldn’t help but worry as I sat with my head down on an outdoor table a little far away.

It was Lucy.

Lucy knocked over a bunch of empty bottles on the table, as if she had fought the army of bottles alone.

I looked around to see if the party was there, but Kyle, who should be where Lucy is, is nowhere to be seen.

In such a situation, seeing the students passing by, glancing at Lucy, who was lying face down alone, made me feel uneasy.

“Ha ha.”

I had no choice but to walk towards him.

“Lucy.”

When I called her name, Lucy stumbled across the table and turned her head to the side.

Both cheeks were red enough to be seen even in the dark, and the smell of alcohol was considerable, no matter how much alcohol was poured into it.

“Puhahahaha…… I must have been drunk. Do you see Adheri?”

Seeing that even his tongue was twisted, he must have been properly drunk.

Staggeringly, however, he got up and blew his liquor again.

Gulp, gulp, the area near Mokuldae gulp a few times at the gulp.

Then he suddenly reached out his hand towards me.

“Hey! Look at this…… I hurt my hand…… ?”

Looking closely at the palm of my hand, I saw a small wound with blood scabs.

“Did you get hurt while doing something?”

“Why, why didn’t you tie something up this time? They said that you shouldn’t leave it as it is if you get infected in the past…….”

“If you get a scab, you can just leave it alone. If you block it with something, the air will not pass through and the treatment may be delayed.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s it.”

I don’t know why, but seeing that he suddenly smiles at his hands, he must be insane.

“Do you have any friends with you?”

“Friends? Did you come alone?”

“…… Then take me to the dorm. Can it happen?”

Lucy stumbled to her feet and looked like she was about to fall.

It seems that I have to do the moving as well.

I got down on my knees and said to him.

“All right. Just get up.”

“Wow.”

Lucy, who had walked like a zombie, leaned on her back as if she were about to collapse.

He rested his chin on my shoulder, and his hair tickled his neck.

I wondered if it was moved so calmly.

“Ugh…… I’m not feeling well…….”

I was horrified at the words he spat while drunk.

“Do not vomit. If I throw up, I really throw it away.”

Of course, I wouldn’t throw it away, so I just hoped that such an unfortunate incident would not happen.
