115 – Eve (7)

1 Hour ago.

Eve, who took over the job from her father, Shinji, sighed deeply.

“Ha… When will I be able to see Elric?”

After the war, she tried to be alone with him.

However, now she has become the next head of the family.

As soon as the war ended, work piled up like a mountain due to cleanup.

As a result, she would not have had time to meet him, let alone be alone with him.

“Ugh… I think this is more difficult than dealing with demons.”

Eve was mumbling with her head stuck on the desk.

Soon, she raises her head.

‘It won’t work.’

What good is there in just working like this?

Even so, I am falling behind compared to other women.

‘The most important thing to me is none other than Elric.’

I can’t fall further behind just because of this kind of work.

Especially for people like Elsh who have been continuously attacking us recently.

After gathering her thoughts, Eve stood up.

Then, she walked with long strides toward her guest room.

After a while, she arrived in front of her destination.

– My heart is pounding.

My heart is beating like crazy.

Even though I see him every time, this guy’s heart starts to fail as if he can’t adapt.

She knocked, catching her breath.

“I will go in. Elric.”

-······.

There is no answer to her call.

‘I can feel a presence inside, so it’s clear that it’s there…’

She tilted her head and asked a question.

‘Hmm. Let’s go in first.’

After thinking, Eve carefully opened the door.

At the same time.

-Isn’t it time to embrace Eve too? I bet Eve will be waiting for you too. Still, my self-esteem dropped a lot because I lost the order to Margaret.

“Ah…”

An unexpected voice came from my ear.

Eve’s brain stopped for a moment.

‘Uh, huh?! L, Elric is hugging me?’

At that time, she felt extremely embarrassed inside.

“Uh…”

Elric must have finally realized that she came in, and he looks at her blankly.

My face feels hot for no reason.

Without realizing it, she bent her waist at a right angle.

“Well, good luck then!”

With those words, she ran away in a hurry.

At the same time.

‘Oh, I guess I’ll have to wear victory underwear today, right?’

As she ran away, she must have seriously thought about what underwear to wear.

***

I was shocked when Eve suddenly left the room.

‘When on earth did you come in?’

-I came in earlier. Master.

‘No. But why didn’t you tell me?’

-Of course I know. He even knocked openly, so why didn’t he know?

‘······.’

She was at a loss for words at her words.

She didn’t know she would even knock.

‘Hmm. People may not be able to hear.’

I tried to rationalize myself and slowly got up from my seat.

Soon, I quickly walked towards Eve’s room.

Not long after that, we arrived at our destination.

I carefully knocked on the door.

“Eve. “Can I come in?”

“Huh?! Now, just a moment!”

Eve tells the world to wait with an urgent voice.

I tilted my head at her reaction.

‘No. ‘Why are you so urgent?’

-Isn’t that because you’re embarrassed?

‘Hmm…’

Of course, the timing was a little strange, but even so, is there any reason to be so upset about it?

The time when I had such doubts.

“It’s done, it’s done.”

She opened her door and appeared in a cold sweat.

I see a strand of her hair on her cheek.

When I saw that, I put my hand on it without realizing it.

“?!”

Her face hardened, her earlobes blushing.

I didn’t care about her reaction and cleaned it up.

Soon, she opened her mouth.

“It’s done.”

“Ah… Thank you.”

“Yes. Anyway, is it okay if I sit on the other side for a moment?”

“Yes! It’s okay!”

She must have been so tense that her back became square.

No. Why are you so nervous?

‘If anyone sees it, they’ll think I’m attacking them.’

-From that woman’s point of view, I have nothing to say.

‘Shut up.’

I made Jukchang’s mouth open and then shifted my gaze.

The next moment, the hesitant figure of Eve appeared in the field of vision.

“Hmm. I’ll just ask you straight. “Did you hear everything?”

“······.”

She lowered her head, maintaining silence at my words.

Judging by the reaction, it seems to be the correct answer.

I looked at her like that and let out a shallow sigh.

“Ha. First of all, Eve made a mistake.”

“Yes…?”

“Well, of course, what Eve thinks it means to embrace is correct.”

“Yes, yes.”

“But, I don’t just attack you like an animal. “No matter how much of a piece of trash I am, I’m not that thoughtless.”

“Is that so?”

She tilts her head with a look of complete disbelief at my words.

“Huh? Why is that reaction?”

“Well, that’s what other people say, Elric is incredibly fierce…”

The next moment, steam leaks out from the top of her head.

That time when I wonder how on earth that is possible in reality.

-The owner certainly behaved like a beast!

Jukchang agrees with Eve’s words.

No. Why does this bastard only make a fuss about being tackled at times like this?

“Hmm. “It’s just because I want to show off to other kids.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. Anyway, if you don’t like Eve, there’s no need to embrace her.”

“No. “I don’t like that.”

Eve cuts me off with a stern face.

It seems she has made up her mind.

May you be embraced by me.

“I see. Well, then, that aside, let’s at least have a date today.”

“Yes…?”

“Huh? “Are you sure you want me to attack you?”

“Oh, no. “It’s not because of that, but because there’s a lot of backlogged work.”

“Are you talking about backlogged work?”

“Yes…”

In response to my question, she lowered her head with a sullen face.

Well, since she will be the next head of the family, it is natural that she has a lot of work to do.

Even more so if it was right after the war.

‘Ah. Now that I think about it, there is a way.’

I quickly called Ig over.

Then, an Ig that looked exactly like a bamboo spear appeared in my hand.

At the same time.

-Pow!

I transformed Ig and Jukchang into human form.

The next moment, the two people tilt their heads.

“What? Why are you suddenly transforming?”

“What happened? Master?”

“Ah. “Because we both have things to do.”

The two people looked puzzled at my words.

I looked at them and got straight to the point.

“I think two people will have to do Eve’s work instead.”

“Yes?”

“What?”

They are looking at me with an expression that asks what kind of bullsh*t this is.

I slowly talked about what to do.

“It’s just that simple. “You just need to inspect Jukchang properly to make sure he doesn’t do anything strange, and Jukchang, you can take over from Eve and do the work.”

“What? “Where is something like that all of a sudden?!”

Unlike Ig, Jukchang retorts with an expression full of dissatisfaction with the world.

I looked at her like that and opened her mouth.

“Wherever it is, it’s here.”

“Profit!”

“You have nothing to do anyway.”

“But I don’t want to work at this young age!”

“In the first place, you have to learn a job from a young age to grow greatly. Look at Ig. “I learned it right from the beginning and grew up differently than you.”

Jukchang quietly looks at Ig at my words.

Then, he sticks out his shoulders as if to emphasize his chest.

Jukchang trembles as he looks at his poor chest.

It seems like she was secretly quite concerned about her small breasts.

“Still, it’s not right to work for free! “Some place makes me work for free!”

Tsk. That’s why he’s such a quick-witted kid.

“Okay. Instead, I will give you my snacks for three days. Beat it with that. Okay?”

“Okay! “That’s enough to calculate the numbers!”

With those words, Jukchang completed handing over Eve to Eve, and then diligently carried out her duties in her place.

After all, there is nothing easier to deceive than a child.

***

After leaving Ig and Eve with their work, we quietly walked around the territory.

Is it because he performed well in the war?

People’s views were mostly positive.

“Anyway, is there somewhere to go?”

“Hmm. In fact, due to the circumstances, there is no place to go. “There is a place I want to take you.”

“Hmm? “Then shouldn’t we just go there?”

“Oh, that’s a little embarrassing.”

“?”

What on earth are you saying that you’re ashamed of?

When I ask that question, she blushes and quietly guides me.

“Let’s go for now.”

After her words, I followed her and took her steps.

Not long after that.

“This way.”

She arrived at her destination.

‘Huh? Tree?’

The place we arrived was a place with a particularly large tree.

While I was looking at the tree and wondering, she was looking around her.

“It must be here… Ah. Found it. “It’s here.”

I looked for a moment at where she pointed with her finger.

Then, countless sword marks were seen on the tree.

Anyone can see that it is a crude sword mark.

However, there is something I felt while watching it.

That’s none other than the fact that the person who left the sword marks made an effort to make people bleed.

Probably this…

‘It must have been left behind by Eve, right?’

When I made that guess.

“When I was young, I first picked up a sword to cut down this tree.”

She says this with her face immersed in her memories.

I just listened without saying anything.

“Actually, I wasn’t that interested in swords. People keep telling me I’m a genius, but honestly, I just felt like it was too easy since I easily won no matter who I fought. But.”

“?”

“It changed after sparring with the professor in the previous session.”

“Yes?”

When I question the unexpected words for a moment, she answers her question.

“The professor probably didn’t think it was a big deal, but for me, losing by the sword was shocking. “That’s why I became interested in the professor for the first time, and that’s why I competed with him every time.”

“Ah…”

After winning a match with me, she started to become obsessed with me.

But, I had no idea that that was the reason.

“Anyway, I just wanted to show it to Elric. The place where I first encountered the sword. And here…”

She trails off at the end of her sentence.

Wiggles her fingers and blushes.

Soon, she mutters softly.

“I want to be hugged by Elric.”

“·····.”
