47 – Before the Storm

The second half of the previous episode has been significantly revised.

It is a completely different part from the previous development, so please read it again.

—-

I made a rough bed in the tent and washed my body in the shower room near the base camp.

He bathed his tired body in hot water and relaxed his sore muscles.

“Facilities are pretty good…”

I muttered that as I came out of the shower.

The facilities were unbelievably clean and nice for a shower room on an island.

When I heard the story, it was said that the academy built it for the 2nd graders’ field trip…

No matter how you look at it, it’s not worth the money.

Why don’t you build a shower room for a school trip?

Stunned by the dizzying academy’s heavy use, I headed towards our group’s tent.

The hot air after taking a shower was cooled by the cool autumn night air.

When I returned to the tent, Golden Sun, who had already changed into active clothes, was drying her hair.

“So, what about the night shift?”

“vigil?”

As I sat down on my sleeping bag and tried to dry my hair, the golden sun asked me.

I slightly frowned at the question.

“Should I watch the night watch…?”

“Well, they say that? No matter how much it’s a school trip, they say you don’t know what will happen at night.”

“It’s different…”

“Honestly, I agree.”

Geum Taeyang giggled and said, then lay down on the sleeping bag.

No, why is he lying in my sleeping bag?

I pushed his body with my feet and pushed him away.

“Ah! Ah!”

“Get out of my sleeping bag.”

“Aagh!”

“Shh, everyone, please be quiet. Violet is sleeping.”

After screaming here and there, Golden Taeyang finally heard what Maharet said.

He made a sullen expression and pursed his lips.

“I got scolded because of you…”

What is he saying…

I gave him a final slap on the back of the head to wake him up.

—-Bah!

“Ah! You hit me again!”

“Mr. Taeyang! Be quiet!”

“Hey…”

Oh, it’s refreshing.

I blew a light sneer at the golden sun, who was glaring at me as if to kill me, and stiffened my sleeping bag.

At my ridicule, Geumtaeyang made a sound of ‘Iik!’, and then, unable to overcome his anger, fell face down on his sleeping bag.

“진짜… 개새끼…”

“I’ll say it again, but you’re the only one who would say that to the eldest son of the duchy.”

“What’s wrong, you’re not the kind of person to catch the blame with something like this.”

“You never know. I’ll hire an assassin later…”

“I’ll do it anyway.”

Golden Sun laughed at my silly voice and then rolled over the sleeping bag.

He rolled the sleeping bag around his body and stuck out only his head.

“So… how do you stand up for the night watch…”

“There are 3 people, does the order really matter?”

“Three people…? Weren’t there four people in our group?”

“Are you going to wake him up?”

“ah….”

Golden Sun, who tilted her head at my words, found Violet sleeping peacefully in the corner of the tent and nodded.

“I can’t wake that one either… I think it’ll cry if something wakes it up…”

“I agree.”

Seeing Violet sleeping pitifully somewhere like a wet cat, it was impossible to wake her up.

I looked at Violet for a moment, who was closing her eyes and breathing heavily, then turned my head and looked in the direction where Maharet was.

“What are you going to do, Princess?”

“……I’m fine in any order.”

Oh, I got the answer.

I honestly thought you would ignore it, but you answer this.

Is it the effect of the [Likeability +200] I received as a quest reward earlier?

Well done on the song quest.

I felt a little proud and smiled lightly.

.

.

.

The order of the vigil thus decided was me, Golden Sun, and Maharet in that order.

Geum Taeyang, who was in the middle of the turn, protested why he was in the worst order, but he lightly suppressed it with honey chestnuts.

The crazy guy complains about the order decided by rock-paper-scissors fair and square.

Even when Ji asked me to play rock paper scissors.

“……”

Therefore, I, who had been assigned the first order of the seemingly unnecessary night watch, sat on a chair outside the tent and was bruising.

ㅡTadak…Tadak…

A bonfire in front of the chair was burning, frying small embers.

Unlike campfires, small and cozy fires.

I breathed out while feeding the firewood so that the small fire would not go out.

“ha…..”

A thin breath disperses into the air.

The autumn air starting to feel a bit chilly made me put on a coat.

ㅡ wheee…

In the wind, a single leaf fell from a nearby tree.

Red leaves that were once green reach the ground as they do their best.

I gently picked up the fallen leaves at my feet.

ㅡ Basrak…

A different feeling from a bonfire, a subtle red color.

I fiddled with the leaf for a while and hit the bruise.

“……”

But strange…

I was sure my mind was hazy just a moment ago, but it felt like my mind was getting clearer.

My body is still tired, but only my consciousness feels clearer…

…Ah, what the f*ck.

Insomnia seems to pass again.

“Haa… such a bitch…”

I swear and wiped my face.

How many times is this…

I couldn’t even sleep last night… but this isn’t it…

Despite my silent cries, my consciousness was growing farther and farther from sleep.

I won’t be able to sleep for a long time because of the night shift…

When the vigil is over, I lie down in my sleeping bag, toss and turn, and fall asleep…

……Can you sleep for two hours?

I think sleeping vaguely would make me more tired…

I sighed, feeling my head pounding.

Yeah… it’s all my fault…

I should have bought some sleeping pills in advance.

I have to save every day, I have to save, I just think about it and procrastinate…

“Ehh… Me too…”

I put on a blank expression, biting my lips for a while, then,

He sighed deeply and scratched the back of his head.

“Haah …..

Yeah… you won’t be able to sleep anyway,

It might be better for me to just stay vigil on my own.

Maharet and Geumtaeyang both looked tired after being active all day…

I feel sorry for Maharet…

“Whoa… Damn it…”

Confused, I took out the sage from my pocket.

Then, I thought as I lit it with a magical lighter.

It seems like it will be a very long night, alone with no one around.

.

.

.

Meanwhile at that time.

A tent for professors near the base camp.

“…What is it? Something is strange…”

Bligh, the homeroom professor of Class 2 D, who was lying in a sleeping bag, suddenly got up and muttered.

“What… Why are you doing this, Bly…”

Class A’s homeroom professor, Aron, reacted to this and raised his body slightly.

Perhaps tired, Aaron opens his mouth wide and lets out a yawn.

“Haam… what are you doing sleeping all of a sudden…”

“……”

“……Bly?”

Bly does not answer Aaron’s call.

He seemed to be concentrating on something with his eyes closed.

“……Strange…”

“What’s strange?”

Bligh opened his closed eyes and frowned.

He rubbed his chin lightly and sighed.

“Intuition… bad intuition…”

“Intuition…?”

“Yeah… I’m worried about something, something… but why…?”

Aaron opened his eyes slightly at Bly’s words and asked.

“Could I have sensed something strange? Maybe Magi…”

“…No, there’s nothing like that at all.”

Bly shook his head quietly at Aaron’s question.

Aaron let out a sigh of relief.

“Whoa… I guess something happened…”

“……”

Aaron’s expression relaxed, while Bligh’s expression remained rigid.

Something kept getting stuck in his head, deep down.

As if to warn you of something.

It was like a kind of ‘feel’ that Bligh could feel as an excellent assassin.

His intuition was telling him.

Something extraordinary and terrible is coming.

“……”

But… what the hell?

What is coming…?

The flow of mana was normal, and I didn’t even feel the magic.

Just like during the day, it was a peaceful island.

“Did I feel wrong…”

Naturally, this ‘feeling’ sometimes malfunctioned.

Bligh, who had many such experiences, regarded it as such.

“Hey Bly, go back to sleep. I’ll wake up early tomorrow.”

“Um… uh…”

Bligh looked at Aaron pointing to the chamnang with a reluctant look for a moment, then sighed.

“Whoa… For a while, I’ll look around the island and come back.”

“……Are you serious?”

Bly nodded at Aaron’s cold eyes.

He put on his coat, put a dagger and memoirs in his sleeve, and said.

“I think I felt the wrong way… but I’m too lazy to just move on…”

“Ehh… Aren’t you really, too obsessed with perfect work? Do you have to do that until after you’re on your field trip?”

“Of course, for the sake of the students.”

“If you say that, what am I going to be…”

At Aaron’s words, Bly smiled and turned around.

As he leaves the tent, he hears Aaron’s voice from behind Bligh, who is about to head for the forest.

“Yumma, take care.”

Bly grinned at that and gave a thumbs up.

“I’ll be back before lunchtime.”

ㅡPavat!

Bligh disappeared with those words.

Aaron looked at the place where Bly had disappeared without a word, then went back into the tent.

The two probably didn’t know until then.

in a few hours-

—-Bly’s decapitated corpse,

The thought of being spread out on the floor and getting cold.
