He Is a Master Who Can’t Handle a Slave Properly

49 – Even if it’s a person whose origin is not clear

“…How is your family?”

I held on to my bitter heart and looked into her eyes.

As expected, she couldn’t hide it in front of her, so she looked into my eyes for a moment, then smiled lightly and nodded.

“Thanks to you. After receiving the three silver coins, it seems that the wounds in my father’s heart have healed little by little.”

“Heart… What about wounds?”

In response to my question, she grabbed my right leg and gently stroked the now convex part where my foot should be.

“My father hurt his leg too. Badly.”

With nothing in the place where it was originally supposed to be, the feeling of touching the inside of my leg made my head feel complicated – but I slowly exhaled at the warmth I felt little by little.

“Unlike you, he lost both his legs and had big scars on his body… He suffered a lot. Besides, he was full of thoughts of taking responsibility for his family, so he suffered a lot.”

As I listened to the story, I felt my heart slowly become heavy.

The family affairs she brought out were indeed heavy. A father who barely escaped death, a mother who had to take care of him, and a younger brother who was too young to handle all of this.

…Lastly, the first daughter who became my slave.

“But it’s okay. It’s all thanks to you. My father is much better, and my mother’s life has become much easier. My younger brother is growing up strong.”

As I was sobbing and shedding tears before I knew it, she slowly laid her body on top of me.

As her warm body suppressed the excruciating pain, her sweet scent flowed thickly into his nose.

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

Leaving her alone, she must have suffered from worrying about her family,

I tried to run away, pushing her away from relying on me, trying to shake off her, leaving her going mad with anxiety.

You said you’d take her pain away, you’d make her less anxious –

what have i done so far

I couldn’t help but shed tears as the first day I met her and the things I’d done so far overlapped.

“Ellie, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

A flood of guilt squeezed my lungs very hard.

I couldn’t breathe properly because I felt like I was about to explode and I was squeezing it with my hands.

He leaned against her body, struggling in pain.

I shed tears for a long time as I surrendered to the kindness of her silently caressing me and the generosity of her continuous giving of herself.

I had no time to know how she must have felt for me.

I hoped she would forgive me, that she would still love me.

Hoping that you would accept me so shamelessly, wishing so shamelessly that her overflowing love would cover even a little of my faults,

He continued to dig into her wide arms.

***

After crying for so long, she whispered in my ear while still holding me.

“…If you will stay by my side, if you will love me as much as I love you, I swear to you that I will always be by your side.”

“Ugh, huh…”

She tightly hugged my shuddering body in her arms and rubbed hers on my cheek, making every effort to calm me down.

“So it’s okay. Huh? If you keep making me tremble like this, there’s no way the story I want to tell will work out.”

It left a red mark on my cheek.

To share the spreading warmth equally with her, I also brought my face closer.

“Listen… Whoops, ah… So I guess we’ll have to go see our parents in person, but your legs won’t be able to cross the rough road easily.”

Thinking about the injured leg, I became even more depressed.

After all, wasn’t my leg the result of my foolish wish not to have her around?

…I couldn’t do anything right.

That fact strangled me even more, and I clung to her even more.

Her choices were always right.

Every choice was made for me, and even though I moved for myself, nothing was made for me.

The arms that were holding her tightened even more.

I… I… her…

“So, it will cost a little money, but even if it’s a prosthetic limb, you won’t be able to buy a sophisticated one powered by magic – but you can still get one that you can walk comfortably on. A sturdy metal one would be better, right?”

Little by little her words started to come into my ears. Prosthetic leg, metal, my leg.

“Before I go to see my parents, at least on the way to my parents’ house, if there’s a problem, it’s troublesome.”

Patting, patting, feeling her hand patting me on the back, I made up my mind to do something.

This would be a common meeting place. For sure.

Then I had to tell her what kind of person I was, but at least I wanted to get her advice before I said anything.

How far to tell the truth, what kind of person her parents want.

so that…

I had to let her know who I really was and where I came from.

She approaches me honestly, but I couldn’t cheat and hide from her forever.

Slowly, I opened my mouth to give her my own – but messy – promise.

“Mr. Ellie,”

“Yes, Marcus?”

She stared at me with a clear smile, and her face was clear and flawless.

Mine… must be messed up.

But I didn’t hesitate any longer. instead…

“I have to be honest with you. I’m not from here.”

Calmly, I spit out what I wanted to say to her.

“I know you’re not a city person. Whoa… wait, Marcus. You…”

She made a light joke and smiled, but when she saw my expression, her face hardened little by little.

“…serious.”

“I… I’m not from this world. I don’t know where, but at least I’m not from this place. I’m from a faraway place, from a world completely different from this one.”

I started confessing to her the biggest secret I had been hiding, quietly but without hesitation.

I hope that she will not be disappointed in me, and I hope that my heart that I want to convey to her will be conveyed properly….

“The reason why I don’t know the common sense of this place properly and I can’t write properly is because of that. It’s because I wasn’t a person here in the first place.”

“Then you said memory loss to me then…”

“It’s a lie. Everything. I’m not from this place in the first place.”

She looked at me for a moment, then began to recite one by one whether there were things that bothered her.

“Did you accept the drinks you drank when you visited the house that day as if you were familiar with them?”

“It… might have been a drink that existed in my world. It tasted exactly the same… Gradually I hear things here in my native language.”

“Is that why the shape of your mouth is different from what I hear?”

She ran her thumb over my lips lightly.

“The shape of your mouth…?”

“Okay, just follow what I’m saying.”

She came a little closer and held her hand tightly, and she closed her eyes for a while, thinking about something quietly –

“oh,”

“oh.”

He pursed his lips and exhaled through his mouth.

“Sad.”

“Sad.”

I brought my teeth together and felt the air leaking out between them.

“rabbit.”

“rabbit.”

“Puhuhhh, it’s really different.”

Oh, I guess that means rabbit.

“Ohh-Rabbit. Rabbit. Rabbit?”

I must have pronounced it as ‘Oseul’, but only the word ‘rabbit’ lingered in my ears.

The feeling was so foreign that it made me shudder.

“The shape of the mouth changed, and then it didn’t… It’s amazing.”

She touched my lips once again, then grabbed my face and brought her head closer.

The bright red tongue that flicked added luster to the parched lips and dyed the two pink mounds red.

“But is Mr. Marcus the Mr. Marcus I know?”

“…?”

Not understanding the meaning of her question, I just blinked my eyes as I followed her gaze.

“Is this the guy I know?”

“You… know.”

What kind of person does she know I am?

Will I look like a blatant liar in her eyes?

Wouldn’t she reprimand me for hiding it from her all this time?

“Don’t be too nervous. I’m not talking to you that way.”

Rubbing away a stream of tears that had flowed before she knew it, she brought her red eyes a little closer.

“Collect a rabbit in despair, give it a warm hand, give it a safe and cozy place to return to, listen to the rabbit’s whining, and scold or push it away even though it clings to the point of being annoying when someone sees it. Rather, he gave it up and – “

Tok, tok, her thin, white hand tapped her lower belly.

Her belly was slim without any flab. She was tapping slowly on the top of the clothes that only vaguely revealed the vertical lines there.

“Now I wonder if he is the one who bestowed the rabbit with an unforgettable, indelible, and… eternally grateful grace.”

“I… I…”

I couldn’t help but say something to her unexpectedly kind voice, warm heart, and above all, a heart filled with gratitude to me.

There was no choice but to shed thick drops of water silently in the seat.

“Shhhhh… I don’t care at all where you come from or what kind of person you are. Just as long as the you I know is true, if the person I love is true, I will always be by your side. And… “

A gentle whisper echoes in my brain beyond my blurred vision.

“The you I know, will stay by my side forever, right?”
