125 – Summer Festival – 2

I’m going to break all my thumb nails.

I grabbed Veronica’s hand and then she came to her senses.

“Huh? Uh uh.”

“What are you thinking?”

“Um… nothing. Let’s go. Time is money.”

Then he leads me and walks toward another stall.

Indeed it is. It takes at least a week to conquer everything here.

“Today, let’s go around from here to there.”

“Yes. Ah. Then how about going from here?”

The place Veronica chose was none other than the cockfight arena.

“Let’s go! The current multiplier is the Crime Singer who inherited crimson blood!”

“Choose the winning chicken! The Blood Emperor with the highest winning rate is the most popular chicken!!”

“Ah! Money is being copied! How can you stand this?!”

Even at a glance, ferocious-looking chickens were gathered.

Quite a number of people were already watching the participating chickens with cautious eyes in the cockfighting arena where the chickens competed for the final winner by making them fight.

“Look at that sharp beak.”

“Huh. The Blood Emperor will tear you apart with the weak seed you chose.”

“No, why are you tearing me up, you crazy bastard?”

“I think Triman Kalt will win…”

“Chunsik ate too much.”

When fighting the Demon King’s army, the battle meeting won’t be this serious.

Looking at the papers with the information of each participating chicken seriously, the gamblers have a serious discussion.

Watching that, I turned my eyes to Veronica.

“why?”

“Do you like this?”

“No. But Marquis Lacey told me to go here. He said it was fun.”

“Are you Lacey?”

“yes.”

Just what he likes

It’s just full of blood and flesh…

Anyway, since I had to go through here as well, I headed to the reception desk with Veronica.

The chicken with the highest multiplier right now is, of course, the Blood Emperor.

The crest and tail were bright red chickens.

“Where are you going to bet?”

“I’m always aiming for chastity.”

“Then I’ll bet Chunshik.”

…say a name once.

Even in the game, the names of the chickens participating in cockfights were arbitrary, but how did the chickens name Chun-sik…

“Yeah, yes.”

Veronica held out a gold coin and I also held out a gold coin.

After a while, she smiled.

“Would you like to bet on something like this?”

“What bet?”

“Which one rises higher between the Blood Emperor and Chunshik you raised?”

“That wouldn’t be bad either. What bet? Praise the winner?”

“…Well, that’s not too bad either.”

Veronica shook her head shyly, stared at the arena and waved.

“If I win, we’re still holding hands today.”

“Uh. Yes. Yes.”

If I win, I’ll have to ask for a lot of blessings for no pay when I make the panacea.

Because the probability of success depends on how many blessings you receive.

“The match starts in a minute! Hurry up and bet! Hurry up~!”

“Money is copied!”

I hear the enthusiastic cries of publicity agents. and after a while

The cockfight that contains everyone’s dreams and hopes has begun.

….

“Give me my money!

A riot broke out after the first match.

I honestly had to.

The first match was surprisingly a confrontation between Blood Emperor and Chun-shik.

A confrontation between Blood Emperor, the strong candidate for the championship of this tournament, and Chun-shik, who only matched numbers.

Wouldn’t it be ‘common sense’ for the Blood Emperor to win?

But, my God.

Chunshik won.

Wow. Chunsik is good. really…

Seeing Chun-sik stepping on the Blood Emperor while still covered in blood and looking around the crowd triumphantly, people tugged at their hair and burst into screams.

“This is a scam!!”

“Ah! The money is being deleted!!”

How could this happen?

No matter how you look at it, Chunshik was a loser.

I turned to Veronica.

“Blessings to Chunshik…”

“I swear to God I didn’t do that.”

“Then a debuff for Blood Emperor…?”

“I didn’t do that either. All of this is just a decision made by God. Fate is not predestined… but anyway. Chun-sik can win, right? Chun-sik won’t stop.”

“Huh true.”

I can’t ask more because I’ve had this kind of nonsensical reversal in the game from time to time.

There are times when an attack with a 99% hit rate misses, so it’s absurd, but I’ll have to accept it.

“Come on. Then. Reach out your hand.”

I reached out to Veronica, and she casually clasped my hand.

“Hehe~.”

Veronica, who liked the world as if she had it all, pointed to one side.

“They sell chicken over there. Let’s go eat chicken~”

Still, it’s nice to see what you like.

The winner goes to the podium, the loser goes to the restaurant.

The Blood Emperor, who was defeated by Chunshik, was made from one meal of chicken.

Maybe because the angry people went to the management to protest?

There was no one in the restaurant, so we ended up eating Blood Emperor meat.

In fact, it is not Blood Emperor meat. I’ll probably go to the restaurant and steal it and put it on display later.

Anyway, this is delicious.

Chicken is also the best.

As I was eating spicy seasoned chicken, I noticed that the seasoning was on Veronica’s cheeks.

“Here buried.”

“Wipe it.”

“Are you without hands?”

“This hand is holding the chicken leg now, and the other hand is holding you.”

I think it might be holding rather than being held.

Veronica, who seemed unwilling to let go of the chicken leg and my hand even if she died, closed her eyes and slightly peeked out her face.

“f*ck.”

“Should I watch the couple’s salting in a place like this?”

“Uh~ Honey~ Wipe me too~”

“Whoops. Shall I wipe it with my lips?”

“…Such an opening.”

I protested to the management, but it didn’t work, so the in-laws and onlookers who came to the store crying and drinking were talking to me and Veronica.

But I’m not the one who would succumb to or get hurt by this diss.

I wiped Veronica’s lips with a handkerchief. Opening her eyes slightly, she smiled bashfully.

“He’s buried here too.”

Then, isn’t the seasoning of the chicken buried on the other cheek?

Excited.

I wiped it off without muttering, and at the end, Veronica applied chicken seasoning to her lips.

“Ugh~”

“Are you doing enough?”

“Ugh~”

He closed his eyes, turned his head, and licked his lips again. In the end, it was only after I wiped her lips with a handkerchief that Veronica quietly ate the chicken, apparently satisfied.

“Then let’s go somewhere else!”

“Yes. Yes.”

The festival tour, which started in the morning, ended when the moon rose high.

I came out of the festival holding hands with her and asked her.

“Where are you staying? I’ll take you there.”

“Accommodation? Are you going to stay at the palace during the festival?”

“…uh?”

what? Since when did the royal palace start a lodging business?

While I was puzzled, Veronica smiled and explained.

“Princess Lucille suggested it earlier. It’s okay to stay at the annex.”

“Isn’t that the annex where I’m staying?”

“That’s right there.”

When she asked what was wrong, I shrugged. It wouldn’t matter if Lucille allowed it.

“But is it okay for you to play like this?”

“I died after it was over… there will be a lot of things to do when I go back…”

I know that the position of the Heretic Questioner in a cardinal is not a very idle one.

Maybe after the festival, Veronica will be busy working.

However, he only cried and did not say that he would return.

“Then let’s go.”

When I arrived at the annex with Veronica, I heard that Veronica’s room was prepared next to mine.

Did Lucille arrange it for you?

“Then see you tomorrow.”

“Yes. Yes.”

Veronica stared at me as if she had something to say, but that was it.

She smiled and took a step back and went into the room.

ruler. Then, since you have free time at night, let’s use this gap to meet Wheeloth.

As Veronica said, time is money and cannot be wasted.

Returning to my room and getting ready to go see Wheeloth, I remembered that I hadn’t properly informed Veronica about Kronos.

Of course, you can say it tomorrow, but it’s not that late at night and it’s not even prayer time, and hearing the sound over the wall doesn’t feel like sleeping.

So let’s go and talk for a while.

“Veronica, aren’t you sleeping? Let’s talk for a minute.”

But there was no answer.

If you went out to take a bath or have business to do, there would be an out of office sign on the door, but there is none.

Could it be that something is going on?

I knocked on the door several times, but still no answer.

However, from the inside, the popularity is clearly felt.

‘no way…’

It is said that this is the royal palace, but considering that there was even an assassination attempt during the Pale Moon event, it cannot be ignored.

Did Kronos’ followers move?

But will Veronica be weak enough to be treated so calmly by them?

If it’s quiet, something else…?

I grabbed the doorknob with the moonlight in my hand.

“Go in.”

***

Was it a satisfying day? It’s a lot of regret to think of it.

Sitting on the bed, Veronica closed her eyes and reviewed the events of the day.

The first time we held hands, it felt like my heart would explode.

Will my hands sweat, or will the redness of my face be exposed?

You don’t know how worried I was that I couldn’t hear my heart beating like crazy.

But what about Hyeonu?

There was not the slightest movement.

Read at noblemtl. com

Just treat yourself no different than usual.

Even though I thought it was a date in my own way, the fact that he hadn’t changed was that he couldn’t even scratch the wall of his heart to this extent.

“…Do I really have to sneak in at night?”

It reminded me of the red book the nuns had seen in the convent.

An apprentice nun who has a secretly loved person eventually cannot stand the love and hides in that person’s room.

And what follows…

– Woe!

I felt like fire burning in my face. My heart feels like it’s going to explode just by imagining it, and my mouth starts to dry up.

“Aww…”

Although he was approaching it shamelessly in his own way, to Veronica, Hyun-woo’s heart just thumped just by her side.

Secretly visiting such a person at night. then…

“Huh…”

What do we do?

My heart is pounding, so I can’t even sleep, let alone pray.

I don’t know what to do now that I think Hyeonu is on the other side of this wall.

I keep thinking of the red book that the nuns secretly passed around in the convent.

-smart.

Then I heard a knock on the window.

Veronica slightly lifted her head and headed there, and there was a black eagle, the symbol of the Heretic Questioner, in front of the window holding something.

“…what is going on?”

Why did they send a black eagle, which is only used to support messengers, relics, or holy water?

Puzzled, Veronica took the bag in the black eagle’s paw and saw the letter on it.

It was sent by the Sisters of Thirteen, who are direct subordinates.

So it becomes even more tense.

Maybe it’s not a mission?

Veronica opened the bag with trembling hands and took out the carefully wrapped package inside.

What is this?

Puzzled, Veronica opened the wrapping paper.

Inside was a book with a red cover.

“…?”

Could it be evidence of a cult?

If so, you should check it out soon.

Veronica opened the red book.

[Miya closed her eyes. The love that should have been directed towards God was directed towards the ‘great and beautiful thing’ in front of her eyes. Ahh. This is the symbol of praise, and this is the symbol of fear. That’s why Miya quickly opened her small, thick lips to hide her fear and immorality…]

[roughly erotic illustrations]

[roughly very raunchy illustrations]

“Kyaaagh?!”

Embarrassed, I threw the book away.

no what does this mean

Not knowing what to do, she took off the cover of the book with trembling hands and only then did she know what it was.

[Slave nun Miya ~ The joy of being submissive to the man you love ~. Volume 17]

[A new work will be released.]

Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.

It is a new version of the red book that only the nuns of the convent can see.

Sending this through the black eagle.

Do you have any thoughts or not?

Veronica shook her head, dumbfounded.

I’ll have to do some training soon.

After sighing deeply, Veronica found an envelope tucked into the cover of the book.

black envelope?

This is information about an important mission given by the Church to the Heretic Questioner?

Surely this isn’t too bad?

Biting her lip, Veronica let out a heavy sigh.

It was important to approach Hyeonu, but he could never ignore the heresy.

Especially if it’s the type that harms people.

[…Trails of human trafficking in the southwest of the kingdom. Presumed to be a form of faith that has not been discovered so far… Currently, Heretic Questioner Roberto and Estin are investigating…]

If it was a direct subordinate belonging to the 13 Sisters and an outstanding paladin, he would not have to intervene.

However, since I have to keep receiving reports, I can’t relax even for a moment.

By the way, a trace of faith that has never been found in the Southwest?

That side has already been sorted out and the cult will no longer exist, right?

Veronica sighed heavily as she concentrated on the contents of the letter in her hand.

“ha…”

My head is complicated. It is difficult to order what to do.

Concerned, Veronica burned the letter and hesitated while trying to lie down on the bed to sleep.

The book I had just thrown on the bed was lying there, with the pages open with explicit illustrations.

“…But 17 volumes of this have already been released… Volume 16 was very fun.”

Veronica swallowed lightly, looked around, and gently opened the book.

“Oh. Oh…”

The immoral content of a nun, who had been married to a man she had long unrequited love for, gradually surrendered to him both physically and mentally, and worshiped a man who was no longer a god, was expressed with vivid pictures.

“I-I really… I confiscated all of these things…!”

In the church, creations like this are laughed at, but there are degrees of blasphemy. How can a nun tell a man…

‘…But I think I will too.’

Wouldn’t it be like this after entering the wall of the heart?

Swallowing dry saliva, Veronica concentrated on her book.

The paintings are more vivid, and the contents are more informative, probably because they recruited a new artist.

“Ugh… ugh… that, I have to stop watching… but…”

But could it be that easy?

It is truly a masterpiece, so 17 volumes have already been released.

Veronica gradually fell deeply into the contents of the book.

-smart.

To the point where I couldn’t even recognize the sound of the door opening after the knock I heard outside.
