57 – 57. Outdoor or whatever..

Nikol, the leader of the Mafia, who should now, according to the original story, be writhing in pain upon discovering the fact that his wife had died.

Until at least the seventh episode, he had expected never to encounter the Pandemonium guys.

Now, he was pointing his gun at me with a bewildered expression.

“Jack, stand behind me.”

Lucia stood in front of me, without giving me a chance to speak, swinging her club.

Seeing my bewildered gaze towards Nicol, as if mistaking it for being directed at herself, Lucia lightly laughed as if it was nothing and lightly patted my stomach.

“It’s okay, take a break and I’ll finish them off.”

And then, she narrowed her eyes and lightly kissed my cheek.

However, it was absolutely forbidden to leave her and Nicol to fight like this.

The position of a romance novel protagonist couldn’t be reached with just an ordinary ability, and Nicol was one of the top combatants among those protagonists.

If they were to really fight, it wouldn’t end up just being a minor injury, but death.

It was said that there would be bullet holes all over the body, turning it into a perfect imitation of a beehive.

“This can’t… huh?”

As I tried to grab Lucia like that, my body was already in a state where I couldn’t move.

Looking at Lucia in surprise, she was rubbing a ring with a puzzled expression.

“If an attack comes towards you, I’ll release it immediately, you’ll stop me again. You’re too kind and getting in the way unnecessarily.”

Unknowingly, Lucia had activated the binding ability of the engagement ring.

“I’ll really die! You can’t do this!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll finish quickly and come back.”

As I helplessly watched Lucia approach Nicol, dragging her club, Nicol aimed his gun at her as if he couldn’t believe it.

Crazy, she’ll really die.

“Step back! You have to run away!”

As if that wasn’t enough, Dylan, who had been observing the situation, was also trying to move, holding a pearl in his hand.

It was an urgent situation where we had to escape immediately, but Lucia was just smiling at me and approaching Nicol.

I forcibly pulled my mouth and tongue, which refused to move due to the binding power of the ring, and said to her.

“If Lucia dies, I’ll die too…”

Only then did Lucia stop in surprise and look back at me to confirm if she had heard correctly.

Unlike her resolute eyes from earlier, I could see a slight trembling, so I choked up with tears and continued speaking.

“The current situation is even more dangerous than during Silvesta, we have to stay together from now on too…”

After hearing those words, her eyes started shaking even more fiercely than before.

Was she facing my sincerity only after I said those words? She took a deep breath for a moment.

Despite the urgent situation, he lowered his twitching tail and ran towards me, sticking the short-range teleport ticket onto his own body.

“This is insane…!”

– Bang!

Nihil, who realized the situation too late, hurriedly shot at us.

But we had already disappeared from their sight.

“Seriously, I was so worried!”

“I’m… sorry… I won’t do that again…”

“If you go out without a plan and rely on me to protect you, what will you do? Do you know how panicked I was?”

Using the short-range teleport ticket, we barely escaped from that place.

We somehow managed to hide and have a conversation far away from that area.

No, rather than having a conversation, I was closer to scolding Lucya unilaterally.

Even if we spent billions of won on short-range teleport tickets like water, this situation would have been dangerous if Nihil had decided to take action.

“It’s lucky that person didn’t shoot because they saw the situation. If they had, we would’ve been in big trouble!”

“No… I… I thought you were in danger…”

I thought I should use this opportunity to talk properly.

But if I come out looking innocent like this, how can I be more angry?

“Well, since you thought about it, let’s leave it here. Still, thank you.”

“hehehehe…”

“But it wasn’t a good thing to do, so if you act recklessly like that again in the future, you’ll be in trouble.”

When Lucya’s tail started to rise again, I warned her once more. She seemed to be thinking about something and buried her head between her folded arms before shaking.

She looked at me with fluttering eyes.

‘This expression she’s making before saying something strange…’

Just as she was about to tease me relentlessly, she suddenly changed her expression to one of happiness and gently kissed me on the lips.

“Ueup…!”

Although I wriggled my body as much as possible to detach her, in case Nihil was still around, she instead pushed me to the ground and clung to me persistently.

“The island is still dangerous… Urgh…!”

Due to her continuous attacks, not allowing even a word, poking at every corner of my mouth.

I, too, moved my tongue absentmindedly without grasping the situation with my foggy mind.

“Phew…”

She bit my tongue as if finding it cute for a moment, then slowly parted her lips and gently stroked my head, saying,

“What I’m doing now, is it reckless?”

“Yes, it’s reckless.”

“So, should you scold me now?”

“…Really?”

I thought she was apologizing for her own inability to resist desire in that moment, but as soon as I heard Lucia’s words, I realized.

Ah, this person probably likes it even more when I scold her from the start.

“Are you going to pout cutely and get angry again, or be calm and neat as usual?”

Knowing that not responding at times like this was the remedy, I turned my head away.

Lucia, as if she anticipated that, climbed onto my lap again and whispered in my ear.

“Or are you planning to scold me on the bed?”

“What on earth…!”

“Oh, if you make a loud noise, it might be exposed, you know?”

Lucia covered her mouth and made a ‘shh!’ sound while narrowing her eyes.

I sighed deeply, grasping my head and catching my breath from the dizziness, then looked at Lucia.

“hehehe.”

She had a wicked smile on her face as if there was something left to do.

Why is she smiling like that again, thinking about doing something?

As I gazed at her trembling, Lucia’s gaze felt fixed on a certain spot.

Following that gaze, I slowly lowered my head, and the direction of her gaze was none other than…

“Where are you looking!”

It was a part of a man’s pride that he couldn’t grasp the situation again.

‘It’s not even a pervert…!’

No matter how this is an area that cannot be coNT*Rolled with reason,

I feel resentful of my sensitive body when it becomes like this with a little stimulation.

Blushing in embarrassment, Lucia giggled, swaying her head, and with eyes like crescent moons, she added,

“Tell me honestly. Do you think about me every time something like this happens and try to calm down?”

“No, not really.”

“What, are you saying you have thoughts about other women besides me? I’m always thinking about you…”

“Oh, come on, why are you like this!”

As I cooled my flushed head on the floor, Lucia poked at my back, chuckling.

“Okay, I’ll stop teasing you.”

Wiping away the tears that had welled up in my eyes, Lucia, who had been laughing for a while, stopped laughing and began to silently gaze at my face.

“Why again?”

“Oh, it’s just because you fit my taste perfectly.”

“..What’s gotten into you all of a sudden, making me blush.”

As I mumbled and turned my head away in embarrassment, she held my hand.

With the hand that wasn’t holding mine, she raised my head to look at the night sky.

“Isn’t it beautiful? In the academy, you couldn’t see the stars well, but here, you can see all the stars like in our hometown.”

It was a night sky I was forced to look at, but as she said, it was truly beautiful.

However, I didn’t feel the same sentiment I used to have when I looked at the sky in our hometown, because…

“Lucia is much more beautiful.”

I intended to keep that thought to myself, but it slipped out of my mouth involuntarily.

Looking to the side, I saw Lucia, who was fidgeting and trying to avoid my gaze as much as possible.

“Back then and even now, I can’t say anything because you’re so pretty.”

Of course, when I first confessed my feelings, I did use some profanity, but that was when we had misunderstandings between us.

Objectively speaking, Lucia is a person who perfectly fits my ideal type.

“People sometimes say that jokingly. Why, if cats weren’t cute, they would have gone extinct long ago.”

With her refreshing personality, sisterly qualities, and an adorableness that shines through her cat-like appearance, along with a healthy and slender figure.

If you were to ask a man, she’s the type of person they’d say is perfect without hesitation.

“Lucia, you have to bow to your parents every morning for giving birth to you so beautifully.”

As I said that with that sentiment, connecting the stars in the night sky with my eyes, Lucia blushed and started mumbling something.

“..Huh?”

Feeling somewhat uneasy, I leaned in to hear what she was saying, but I immediately regretted my decision.

“Haah… Forget it, whether it’s outdoor or indoor, just go ahead and cover me?”

My skin crawled for a moment, and I promptly stopped praising Lucia and shrank into myself quietly.
