39 – 14. Sleeping Princess -1

The place where Noah was was really near the merry-go-round.

The guy was asleep, leaning against the fence there.

The problem was that the guy’s expression looked distressed.

I’m breaking into a cold sweat and moaning as if I’m going to die at any moment.

“Noah?”

After my transformation, I approached Noah in the form of the Four Gods. To change things up a bit, I went inside the carousel.

Noah was laid down in a small room, but he still looked distressed.

“Ugh…I don’t like it…I don’t like it…”

What kind of nightmare is this guy having right now?

“Uncle… I don’t like it… Ugh…”

…My dream?

Noah kept calling me and had a distressed expression on his face. What on earth are you doing? Me in my dream

Should I enjoy being trusted so much that it’s a nightmare, or should I feel sorry for bothering him so much?

I laid Noah down on his lap and stroked his head, but there was no sign of him getting better.

Flutter.

A white warbler folds its wings and falls in front of me.

Kyundyda.

“Kyuu…! Noah!”

“Kyun kya.”

“Shinhyun… Would you please hold Noah for a moment?”

Kyunkyun lands on Noah’s body and spreads a pale light. It looks similar to the purification that Natalia did a little while ago.

But it lacked brilliance to compare to that.

Limitations of mascots that are not magical girls.

Noah did not wake up and still made noises of pain.

“Noah…Noah can’t wake up…”

“Kyuakya, what should I do to wake you up?”

“There are two ways to awaken Lady Noah. Use powerful purification magic, or flow strong essence into her body to force circulation of magic power.”

There is no option for purification magic.

KyuKyu’s magic failed, and I don’t know how to use such magic.

But if it is a strong essence.

‘Squeeze. ‘You still have it, right?’

‘Which one?’

‘Integer. ‘You know what we got last time.’

After thinking about it for a long time, Kkomul-i answers.

‘It’s Bagh, right?’

‘Yes. The essence I got from Bag.’

‘Yes, if you need it, I can take it out right away. But will you be okay?’

Kkomul said so.

It seemed like he was worried about it.

Where did an ordinary person get such strong essence? If you ask that question, I have nothing to say.

It is illegal for an ordinary person to possess purified water. In addition, it is specialized in detecting magical power.

It is probably not a problem to know who the original owner of the essence is.

“Ugh… Man… It hurts…”

But we can’t just watch Noah suffer.

Even if I get interrogated by Kkyun later or even if I get caught by Noah, for now.

‘Take it out.’

‘Yes, I will bring it.’

Sleep.

A dazzling crystal emerges from the shadows.

This is pure essence obtained after processing Bag.

When he saw this, he let out a surprised sound.

“Shinhyeon? Where on earth did that come from…?”

“…I’ll answer you later.”

“…That essence reminds me of that orc I met before…”

“That too, later.”

“…There was a rumor that that orc was eliminated by a villain called Kraken.”

“…”

Persistent.

Kyukkyun’s gaze feels sharp.

I hesitated for a moment and then showed it to him.

Familiar tentacles sticking out of my shadow.

“…!”

“Kyun kya.”

“How could you…! From the beginning, from the beginning, you approached Noah with this intention!”

“Calm down and stay calm.”

“Don’t touch Noah, Kraken! I will definitely protect Noah-“

“I have the same desire to protect Noah, kkyukkyun.”

KyuKyu was speechless.

It was a look in his eyes that seemed like he couldn’t understand at all.

I understood.

After all this fighting, I now want to protect it.

However.

“Is there any other way than for me to feed Noah the essence?”

“…”

“Is there a way to deal with that monster without waking Noah?”

“…Kyu…”

“If you don’t have one, at least watch. I’ll explain after everything is finished.”

Kyunkyu left without saying anything more.

“…Thank you.”

“…I will definitely hear what’s going on.”

“I’ll tell you as much as I want.”

But.

What should I do with this now?

“How should I feed this? It’s okay.”

“Originally, you should absorb the essence into your body. But since it is in such a state, you have no choice but to use primitive methods.”

“Primitive method?”

Kyungkyun nodded.

“You chew the essence, crush it, and then swallow it.”

“…Well, but Noah is now…”

“That’s why someone else has to do it. In situations like now.”

Kyungkyun is staring at me.

“I hope what I said about protecting you, Noah, is not a lie. Kraken.”

Thorns sprouted from his words.

I expected it, but I guess I was still wary.

But that’s not important right now.

“…Ha… In short, feed it yourself.”

“Yes, that’s right. Please pass it on by word of mouth.”

Isn’t this exactly like a kiss?

No, although there are justifiable reasons…

“…Huh.”

This is such a strange thing.

Why, now, do I remember what Noah said before?

‘What can I say…Like that princess…Why is there something like that? ‘Sleeping princess… Or a waking kiss…’

A kiss that wakes a sleeping princess.

It may be ambiguous to call it a kiss, but it is true that it is a kiss.

I put the essence in my mouth and chewed it.

Because it was as hard as candy, there was no difficulty in breaking it.

When they were broken into small pieces and ready to be swallowed, I opened Noah’s mouth.

Excited.

Even at times like this, my heart was beating properly.

‘Come to your senses, Sashinhyeon.’

This is, after all, an action to save Noah.

I kissed Noah’s cherry-colored lips, and essence slowly began to flow into Noah.

Gkomulgi was quietly amazed when he saw that.

‘I didn’t know you could really kiss a candy… No, is it an integer kiss…?’

That’s right.

I never thought things would go this far.

This is how it happened.

‘Feel like a sleeping princess.’

+++++

Noah was not in a good mood.

‘Again…’

I feel like my body is frozen.

The dirty feeling of having my whole body wrapped in tight ropes.

Hell was unfolding before Noah, who was forced to sleep.

The murdered father and the bed sheets turning red. Even though she saw it, she couldn’t do anything.

This is already the second time, but watching it again, it is a truly horrible and disgusting scene.

‘…Whoa…’

From noble mtl dot com

Noah closed his eyes and exhaled.

How long has it been since then?

‘Noah.’

A very familiar voice was heard.

‘Mister?’

That man was someone he called uncle.

Tall height and black hair. Blue eyes sparkle around his unique smiling eyes.

Why did the uncle come here?

…No, maybe that was a dream too.

It will be so.

…Because.

‘Noah, could you please help me?’

Otherwise, there’s no way that guy would have been caught.

‘Mister!’

He was now hanging with a rope around his neck.

Nearby, monsters that looked like rabbit dolls were carrying out his sentence.

‘Stop!’

Noah ran.

My heart was pounding and my breath was up to my chin.

But no matter how hard he ran, he never thought he would reach the execution site.

The dolls start counting.

‘3.’

No.

‘2.’

Please stop.

‘1.’

Don’t do that!

‘0.’

Ah-

As the countdown reaches zero, the scaffolding clatters and disappears.

The man’s body falls downward.

With the rope still hanging around his neck.

The head of a man hanging languidly.

It is said that hanging usually results in instant death due to broken neck bones, but the man did not die.

No, there is no way he would die in the first place.

This was all an illusion from his nightmare.

However.

‘Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk’

There is nothing I can do about my painful heart.

Noah closed his eyes and heard the sound of the man’s breathing stopping.

Wow! The sound of wanting to breathe.

A voice complaining about why it didn’t come sooner.

The reason I died is because of you. I hope you die painfully, too, the voice curses.

It was painful.

That man spits out words like that.

However, Noah was able to come to his senses.

This guy is ultimately a fantasy created by a dream.

There is no way a man in real life would say something like that-

‘But, it’s okay, Noah.’

‘…Ha?’

‘You lived safely. ‘That’s it.’

A voice passed by Noah’s ear.

It was a very caring and kind voice that I heard every day.

‘Don’t be so sad. If you live, that’s it.’

The damn dream was now spitting out words that the old man would really say.

My uncle was no longer sad or distressed. Even with his neck hanging from a rope, he just tried to comfort himself with a smile.

‘I’m sorry, Noah.’

‘…’

‘I don’t think I’ll ever be able to pat you again.’

‘Ah…Ahhh…Ahhh!!!’

That was so painful to Noah.

Even if you know that this is a nightmare.

Sharp.

Noah sat down.

I hope someone saves me.

I wish someone would come and wake me up from this dream, like the prince who saves the princess in the old fairy tales.

Please, save me.

…As I was wishing so much, someone appeared again.

It was an uncle.

He glanced at Noah, then held out his hand for her. Noah looked at him with suspicion, but the man patted his head and said it was okay.

Noah closes his eyes at the very warm touch.

Is it really the uncle this time? Not a dream but something that actually exists?

The man spoke to Noah, who was looking at him with such anticipation.

‘Let’s see, shall we see how well Noah lives, leaving him alone?’
