Chapter 266
266. Isn’t this kind of good sometimes?
#266
“Ugh… damn…”
Ronan opened his eyes. My head felt heavy as if my brain had been soaked in water. When I turned my body, which was lying on my side, I saw the familiar wooden ceiling and twenty daggers stuck in the shape of hearts.
“That’s another idiot…ugh!”
Ronan, who was trying to get up, covered his mouth and retched. Fortunately, the contents did not come out. Every time he inhaled and exhaled, he smelled of alcohol. He staggered and stood up from his seat, leaning against the wall.
Ronan desperately remembered the sparse last night. As soon as he returned from Adren, he suffered from overwork, and it was not until the second evening that he was able to reunite with Adeshan and the members of the limited-class adventure club.
People held a party to welcome Ronan and Asher Schlieffen back from an eventful journey. Itargandh, whom Marya provided food and drink, and lent a boat, took care of the business.
The number of people was not small, but the building was so large that it was not difficult for everyone to play together. The foam of the beer rising every time the glass was bumped reminded me of the foam of the waves on a sunset day.
…I remembered exactly that far. Ronan, who looked around, stuck out his tongue.
“You drank, unfortunately.”
The inside of the club building had turned into a mess as if a bomb had exploded. There were puddles of vomit and alcohol all over the place. The leftover snacks were cold like frozen corpses.
There were four or five huge kegs large enough for a person to fit in, but all of them were empty. Most of the drinking glasses on the floor were smashed.
I’m not sure, but I remembered that Marja, who was probably drunk, couldn’t control her grip and continued to eat. At that time, a moan that could have been heard came from Ronan’s feet.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
“Ah, it’s a fucking surprise.”
Ronan lowered his gaze and spat out a curse. Braum overturned his great shield and lay inside it. It seemed that something that fit his body could be used as a coffin and buried. His beard-covered face still suited a lumberjack rather than a knight.
“How can there be no one who is fine…”
A sigh came out of nowhere. Other members could also be found not far away. Schlieffen, the noble duke of Grancia, was asleep with his head buried in the cork board where maps and posts were pasted.
In his hand, who had fallen down while standing, was clutching a sack of chalk he did not know where he had obtained. Above the map of the Empire, Irill’s portrait was drawn in a delicate style.
“…Among that time, you drew well.”
Ronan shook his head. I had seen all kinds of truths during my life as a punishment soldier, but this was the first time I had ever received an injection like this. It’s like a crazy person. He smirked as he staggered toward the kitchen.
“You did it. Asher.”
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhh…”
Asher and Marja were lying on the floor like the others. Asher was moaning in agony while being held in Marya’s arms. Her aggressive chest was thoroughly preventing Asher from breathing normally.
“Umm… I’m sleepy…”
“Eup…! Ugh…!”
Whenever Marya tossed and turned, Asher’s body moved as well. It felt like hugging a favorite doll or pillow rather than a hug between lovers, but they seemed happy anyway.
“Hee hee… unni… you’re too bold…”
“Why is he like this again?”
Elizabeth, the daughter of Akalucia, was asleep leaning against the stairs with her hair in pigtails (I don’t know why). It was quite unpleasant to mumble Adeshan’s name while drooling.
Vampire Ophelia was nowhere to be seen. Fortunately, I remembered the reason. On the first day after returning from Adren, Ronan told her a secret about his blood. She is the most bloody race in the world, and she was originally a woman with a strong researcher temperament.
‘It was almost an obsession.’
Ophelia took responsibility and left for her castle to find out how to use the blood. He drew a lot of blood to use as a sample, but maybe that’s why he seemed more drunk than usual.
[Cheukeoeoeoeok! Keouk!]
“Bye woo woo woo woong…”
Itargand was away from the training ground outside the building, transformed into his true form. His shiny scales were scrawled with scribbles presumed to have been made by members of the club. Sita was sleeping curled up on his broad back.
“…played well.”
Ronan, who suddenly looked around at them, laughed. I didn’t feel too bad. Maybe it’s because they’re usually only focused on work and schoolwork, so this time it seemed like the reins were properly released.
‘Sometimes it has to be like this.’
After playing to the fullest, it was time to start the day again. I sent the materials I had compiled overnight the other day ago to various places, so there should be some kind of response by today.
He was on his way to the bathroom to wake up with a face wash. Suddenly, someone’s face passed in front of my eyes. Ronan stopped in place.
‘What about Adeshan?’
Come to think of it, I forgot the most important person. Adeshan was nowhere to be seen. I definitely remember getting drunk and coquettish.
‘Did I go back first?’
Being the student council president, I thought that might be the case. It was the moment Ronan was about to move. Suddenly, a delicious smell wafted from the kitchen.
“This is…”
Even while my stomach was upset, my appetite rose. It was the smell of mussels and other seafood cooked in soup.
Ronan walked towards the kitchen like someone possessed. The sound of boiling water was approaching.
When I opened the door, I saw Adeshan standing in front of a pot with an apron on. Her long, straight hair that reached her waist was floating in a mess. After staring at her for a long time, Ronan opened his mouth.
“Adeshan.”
“Oh Ronan. Woke up?”
Adeshan looked back at him and smiled. It was a kind smile that I never get tired of no matter how many times I see it.
“What are you doing in the morning? You must be tired.”
“Yes. It just seems like everyone is having a hard time. I thought it would be nice to clear up my stomach a little.”
“her.”
Ronan chuckled. He must have had a drink together, but this lady did not seem to have a hangover. Putting down the ladle, she continued.
“You sleep more. There is still a little left to be completed.”
“That’s Okay. gotta get up soon Anything I can help you with?”
“huh. really. But if you’re not sleepy, there’s something I’d like to ask you…”
Suddenly, Adeshan dragged his tongue. The atmosphere was unusual as the face was slightly flushed. Ronan shrugged his eyebrows.
“What is it?”
“That… remember last night?”
“What’s wrong? Did you make a mistake?”
“If it’s a poem mistake, is it a mistake…? That… you know, but when I drink, do I have to do whatever I want? You become arbitrary. So…”
Adeshan was constantly looking around to see if anyone was awake. Like a child watching his parents’ reaction after making a mistake. When Ronan didn’t say anything as he recalled the memory, she began to mumble at an incomprehensible speed.
“But honestly, it was your fault too. First of all, it’s against the law to take off your jacket because you’ve met for the first time in a long time… and it’s suddenly hot… No, no. it’s my fault too As an elder, it’s really ah…!”
“Umm… last night.”
Ronan scratched his head. Only fragmentary cross-sections remained sparsely, but nothing came to mind. I guess I just drank and stretched out. Having finally come to a conclusion, he opened his mouth.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I guess I’m not.”
“…really?”
“yes. really.”
“Haaaaa…! That’s it. I’m glad yes.”
Adeshan let out a sigh of relief. The worry disappeared from her face. Ronan tilted his head at the incomprehensible action.
“…what is what.”
I couldn’t understand English. Without a word, he grabbed Adeshan’s chin, pulled him, and kissed her lightly. Her eyes widened. There was no particular reason, I just wanted to do it.
“I missed you.”
“Really…”
Adeshan lowered her head in embarrassment. Before long, their eyes met again. It was a car that was getting closer again. Someone’s voice came from behind.
“I was excited when I got back. Anyone who sees them will know that they are newlyweds.”
“Kyaaak!”
Adeshan shrugged in surprise. Dishes collided with her spilled out. Reaching out with animalistic reflexes, Ronan barely caught the plate that was about to crash to the floor.
“Damn, you were surprised.”
“I have no intention of interfering, but it would be better to cover the time and place. If rumors spread that the student president of Phileon Academy is having a promiscuous relationship with a normal student… it would be so much fun.”
“Okay, okay. I thought no one was there.”
Ronan, who was giggling, turned his head. Nabi Rose, in uniform, was standing at the doorway of the club building, arms crossed.
“It’s been a while, Instructor.”
“Your cooking skills aren’t bad. It’s even rude to throw a party without the master.”
“Why are you being so childish, really? You were on a business trip until yesterday.”
She was eating leftover chicken legs for a snack last night. Adeshan, who encountered Butterfly Rose, made a hand gesture as if chasing an insect and opened her mouth.
“What a promiscuous relationship! We don’t…”
“I know. you can’t do that So, did you get a mosquito bite on your neck, Adeshan?”
“hot…!”
Adeshan sighed. Her face, which had been red before, became even hotter.
Adeshan quickly covered his neck with the palm of his hand, but Ronan had already looked away. Just as Butterfly Rosé said, there were one or two red marks on the long, white nape of her neck.
“This this… so this…!”
“What a big mosquito. It’s still cold, but it’s strong.”
Nabi Rose laughed and made fun of Adeshan, as if she were going to die for fun. Ronan’s face hardened like a stone statue. Damn did I do that?
“…sorry.”
In the end, unable to overcome her shame, Adeshan lowered her head. It seemed like he knew why he asked about last night. Ronan whispered.
“What have I done? I can’t believe this and that…”
“Shh quietly…!”
Adeshan cautioned him by bringing his index finger to his mouth. It seemed that he had made a serious mistake while drunk. Butterfly Roze, who finished the fifth chicken leg, continued.
“What kind of nonsense is this? As soon as you are ready, come to Phileon Plaza.”
“I see. Just the two of us?”
“Everyone here. The principal seems to have something to say to the entire school.”
“Eh? The whole school?”
Ronan and Adeshan tilted their heads. It was very rare to convene all students except for large events such as graduation ceremonies and festivals.
“What is it?”
“I don’t know either. Because it’s a sudden thing. Anyway, I told you to gather by noon, so know that.”
Nabi Rose said that she had come to deliver that information in the first place. She made Adeshan’s face redden once more with a rather vulgar joke, then turned her back. Ronan, who was dumbfounded, opened his mouth.
“What is it?”
“…I know.”
Adeshan shook his head. Even she, the student council president, didn’t seem to have received anything. Anyway, it had to be done, so Ronan woke up all the members and headed to the sink.
“It’s good that you accepted a kiss from this guy.”
Seeing himself in the mirror, Ronan smiled. As expected, a caveman stood there. If I were Adeshan, I think I would have run away screaming.
He took off his shirt to wash his hair. Suddenly, something strange came into Ronan’s eyes as he was getting water in the basin. There were marks from the collarbone to the nape of the neck that looked like mosquitoes had bitten them. Quite a lot too.
“…what is this again?”
Somehow it looked quite similar to what was left of Adeshan’s neck. After washing up in less than five minutes, Ronan immediately moved on. All the students were already gathered in the plaza of Phileon Academy.
