* * * *

The sky was high and blue, and it was such a sunny day that even the sunlight felt pleasant.

Just as even the cool wind blesses today, a good day that quickly cools down even the sweaty drops of sweat.

All the people of the empire can’t hide their excitement as if it’s their own festival, and they chatter with their voices as high as possible.

“Oh my God, I never thought I’d see Her Highness getting married…!”

“Idiot, the Sword Saint, not Her Highness the Princess, is going to marry the sire. You should speak clearly.”

“Ah, man, that’s it! I heard that it was the swordsman who cured Her Highness’s incurable disease! You’ve won that much yourself!”

Drunkards drinking beer in the middle of the day for a snack that doesn’t mean much about who belongs to whom.

“Darling! They say the whole empire is a festival, so where should we go today? It’s a festival for seven days, so shouldn’t we look around every day?”

“Um… Today, the day of the wedding, we have to see the two of you, so the capital is confirmed, and starting tomorrow, how about going to the east, west, south, and north one by one?”

“That’s nice…!”

Newlyweds planning a trip to indulge in another atmosphere of the empire as if they were on a honeymoon.

As such, during these seven days, everyone living in the empire or traveling to the empire could play and eat without any worries, and it was natural for that reason.

“…It’s good because the people of the empire are happy, but wasn’t it too much of an expense?”

“Ah, it’s money. You can earn it again. Isn’t it money to earn money to spend at times like this?”

It’s because I poured about half of my entire fortune into it.

… If you say this, some may ask.

If so, say something that makes sense, saying how much you would have earned and pouring half of it so that the whole empire could celebrate and play for a week.

Called.

“Did the richest person in the empire say that?”

“Ah~ Shhh! I told you to keep that a secret between us.”

“…if you can’t speak.”

Lily shook her head with a groan.

However, it was clear that this would soon be resolved, based on my long experience.

Is it because the day is nice?

Or is it just because I like it?

Well, how are you?

Either way, if it’s good, that’s it.

Strangely, even though he only educated the bad guys, money overflowed to the point of rotting.

That’s why I became the richest person in the empire.

But what… Since my woman is the princess of the empire, how could I possibly need money?

It was collected one by one so far to make the entire empire into a festive table on the wedding day.

The remaining half is intended to be used for the liberation of slaves or for orphans who have lost their parents.

Still, if you use it in public, after connecting with Lily, wouldn’t Lily’s reputation improve?

As a person, even though I went through so many things and met good people, I couldn’t get rid of my snobbish thoughts.

It seems to be an innate nature.

‘maybe… If I hadn’t met Lily, I might have had a dog-like personality like Selina.’

The level of obsession has reached the level of madness.

I hate to think about it, but if I hadn’t learned from Lily what devoted love was, I might have been twisted that way.

Although Lily herself seems to feel that even that has been learned from me.

“…? why?”

He said he wanted to listen to the opinions of the people of the empire using the moonlight, so if I fix my gaze even for a moment, he looks back like this.

Do you have eyes on the back of your head?

“No, it’s just that we’re really different, yet we’re similar.”

“That’s the sound of eating some kind of ghost.”

“…Can you stop using Korean proverbs? Speaking in Korean with that face makes me feel very strange?

“You’re very picky about being from the GED. This is the top of the academy, isn’t it?”

“…No, it’s a really strange feeling?! And I’m also the top at that academy!”

“Puh.”

Lily raised the corners of her twitching lips and let out a laugh.

what’s funny

“Puh.”

Even though I thought so, I laughed along, and I thought there was no such thing as an arm.

It’s good to see Lily smiling.

Just good

It’s nice because it’s pretty.

It’s nice because it’s cute.

I’m glad you smiled in front of my eyes.

Thank you for not letting go of my hand while grumbling.

Just… good night. I guess this is love

“Wait a minute, then… You mean Bean is many times older than me?

“…I’m not talking.”

“No, you’ve lived such a long life, and you’re upset about things like this?”

It’s sad to make fun of your age.

In terms of mental age, I’m no different from Lily.

And if you put it that way, Lily shared similar memories before returning to me, so isn’t she the same as an old lady?

“You, you just had a strange thought. It also feels like a very rude thought.”

Lily’s narrowed gaze directed at my chest.

He slowly raises his eyes and glares at me.

“Oh, I didn’t…!”

“You’re lying, you said you wouldn’t.”

“…I did, I did.”

this shit.

Why did the proposal line have to be like that?

If I could go back to that point in time, I would have hit my jukbang really hard.

Whew.

Lily lets out a short sigh with a laugh and starts stroking my hair.

“When I was young, I really felt like a strong wall that would protect me for the rest of my life. Now that I look at it, I’m a kid. Should I do it like this? Huh brother?”

“……uh?”

pop.

Dynamite exploded in my head, and the inside of my head turned white, no, completely empty.

Looking at me, Lily sticks out her tongue.

The slanted eyes smile, and the corner of the mouth hangs on the chisel of the crescent moon.

you’re aiming for

you are playing with me

should not pass

If you can’t stand it here and make a messy expression, you might be caught for the rest of your life.

My promise was quickly shattered helplessly by Lily’s continued attack.

“You say you don’t like the old man, how about your brother? Empty oppa.”

“It’s damn good.”

“Puhehe… They say it’s fucking good, it must be crazy.”

Lily bursts into laughter by knocking on the roof of someone else’s house.

Shame has crossed its limits. At this rate, I might explode with shame.

I couldn’t bear to make eye contact and scratched my neck as I averted my gaze, feeling a warm, soft touch on my cheek.

side.

Lily’s lips touched mine and fell.

With a dazed expression on her cheek, which was still warm, Lily looked up at the distant sky and said.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t want to call you big brother…but I don’t mean to call you old man.”

serious face.

Eyes with a strangely sad feeling.

In the completely changed atmosphere, I looked at Lily blankly without realizing it.

As if answering my question, Lily continues. The eyes are still looking towards the sky.

“That’s true, didn’t you tell me? Love is not a pitiful feeling that one side clings on to by the crotch… It’s not a pitiful feeling that continues by holding on to the crotch. It’s a feeling of caring for each other, step by step moving away from each other or getting closer.”

A look that seemed oddly regretful.

… oh now i get it

Those sad eyes are reversing her actions against me, who faked death or really died.

“So yes. I’ve been thinking about how it would feel if you clung to me like that.”

sneak

Now, look at me properly and tell me.

I don’t even know I’ve been waiting for your eyes to turn to me.

“More than the joy of being able to completely monopolize the person you love, it’s more sad. Seeing the person you love hurt because of me. So much…”

Her hand toward the cheek that had kissed me.

warm and also kind

“I regard you as the sky, and I believe that whatever you say is unquestionably true. If I rely only on you… what can I do for you? My body? My status?”

Lily’s eyes narrowed calmly.

Since he already knows the answer, his expression seems to be asking for a silent response.

“What does that matter? They’re something you’ll get if you put your mind to it anyway.”

Saying so, he took my hand and pulled me into his arms.

The shape is like, I feel like I’m hugging her.

It seems like I’m showing off that I have a body that I can have as much as I want.

“You give me the most precious thing, and give me the most necessary things when they matter most. I can’t just let go of my hands and blink my eyes and accept what you give me.”

“That’s why I don’t want to call you oppa. I think it’ll be taken for granted that you do something to me. I’m afraid I’ll get used to things that aren’t obvious.”

“Even though I may call you honey or you, I won’t call you like an older brother. I want to face you properly.”

Lily’s gaze toward me draws a crescent moon and smiles.

I was speechless and just looked at Lily.

On and on despite the clouds and time passing in the high sky.

Even if I hold it in my eyes forever, I look at you, who doesn’t even show a sign of getting tired of it.

“…? What’s on my face?”

tilting head. obvious speech.

Is it a fox quoting a creation that exists in my memory?

Or is this kind of behavior you were born with? A natural that suits the off-white color of Gyeonggukji.

Before I could think deeply, my hand moved first.

No, I just didn’t have to think about it.

As I always said, what if it’s a fox thing, and what if it’s an innate nature.

“No, just because I love you.”

I gently lift your chin in my arms with my fingertips.

Their eyes met, and soon they got closer, and no matter who said it first, they closed their eyelids.

lips touching. Your warmth flows through your lips and is transmitted to me.

For some reason, it feels like today’s kiss won’t be easily forgotten, even though the lips must have matched hundreds of times.

Because it’s a special day?

Or is it a good day?

‘No way.’

Just.

There is no particular reason.

You are already a special person to me, do I need another reason?

Because I love you.

The time I spend with you, my dear, is so precious that I feel like I will never forget the moments with you in my entire life.
