────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Chapter 17
As if the statue was natural, he got on the carriage. He escorted Jaeha and put her on the carriage before going to the coachman’s seat and said,
“The destination is Viscount Koufen’s estate. Running while the sun is up and resting when the sun goes down should be a basic principle of flexibility. Besides driving the carriage, I order you to escort Yoon Jaeha.”
[ “Understood.” ]
Then, after he boarded, the carriage began to depart. None of the people on the street doubted that the coachman was not a person.
“…Magic is convenient but a little scary.”
Jaeha, who was looking out the small window, muttered.
Hisran, a magician, used magic stones to freely control things similar to living things. So, what would a warlock who specializes in controlling or destroying others look like…?
“Magic is a power that can bring different results depending on how you use it. Don’t worry. The existence of that statue is a secret from the general public, although the deputy masters and elders know it.”
“Rather than that… I wondered if I was taking the warlocks too lightly.”
After Zephiroth left, she heard a little more about the warlocks from Hisran. Black magic based on the sacrifice of other creatures was said to be more powerful than normal magic, except in special cases. So, seeing his natural magic unfold as if breathing, she became afraid again.
‘Hisran’s magic is wonderful enough… but is there magic stronger than that?’
His voice was heard in Jaeha’s ears, who were immersed in thought.
“Yes, you better never take it lightly. Because we don’t know what they’re going to do, if you want, you can back out now. I can call Zephiroth again. Judging by the fact that he came all the way here, it seems that he had secured at least one safety coordinate. Then he will come soon with teleportation magic.”
“…Then, are you not at a loss in many ways? Both in time and money.”
“Huh? If you think that way, please extend the contract a little longer, you cold-hearted girl.”
Hisran replied with a grin.
Looking at his appearance, it seemed sincere that she could give up on the journey even now.
As her dark brown eyes met his, the golden eyes that did not avoid her gaze were straight.
‘The scariest thing in this world is people. Is the red tower really safe?’
Jaeha’s shoulders trembled as she remembered the third academy head.
Even though she didn’t want to show weakness to others, so she was trying… However, she had been afraid of people since that day since she didn’t know when or how they would change.
Although it was said that Hisran was the tower master, there was no such thing as a director at all.
Why, there is a saying that even if you know everything underwater, you don’t know the hearts of people on the road? Hence, she decided that it was safer to be with Hisran, whom she could trust even a little, whether a monster or a warlock appeared than to live in the red tower with no one to trust.
Jaeha, who frowned a little, responded back.
“From your point of view, shouldn’t you be saying, ‘I’m the strongest’ or ‘Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to protect you.’”
“I already said that I can take responsibility for one person under any circumstances.”
“….”
“Are you afraid again? You look like a frightened cat.”
“Who’s like a cat—!”
Hisran, with his arms outstretched, said to Jaeha, who was furious with him.
“You can hug me. My heart is wide enough to appease a fearful person.”
“That’s enough!”
As soon as she answered that, the carriage rattled as if there were rocks on the way, and her body leaned forward. He quickly supported her and pulled her into his arms. The embarrassment was vivid on Jaeha’s face, who had already sat on Hisran’s lap.
“I think the coachman outside lacks the delicacy of the rabbit doll. I don’t like it.”
“I know. Still, it’s not bad for me.”
Seeing Hisran’s smiling face was very annoying for her. She then tried to pinch his side or anything she could get her hands on. Nevertheless, ironically, the body temperature of someone, Hisran, calmed her down.
‘Is it the effect of his confident-looking smile?’
His two hands that were hugging her were gently fixed to her back and legs, which he had held like the first time. A man who knew how to control his lust even though his gaze was hot and he threw mischievous words.
It must have been that, in a way, he accepted his dangerous deal with ease.
‘I hope you keep this look so that I don’t resent you or hate you even after the contract is over. I just want you to remain as good memories…’
Jaeha, who was staring at Hisran, kissed his cheek as if possessed by something.
Even for a moment, as Hisran was bewildered by the unexpected warmth, he said with bright eyes.
“You can tempt me a little more seriously.”
“What are you talking about.”
As she glanced at him, she leaned out slightly and kissed his lips. Should she dig further here? Worrying was meaningless. It was because Hisran’s lips swallowed hers that touched his lips without a single hesitation.
“Uhh…”
Contrary to the rather rough start, Hisran’s tongue gently caressed Jaeha’s mouth. It was a careful and delicate movement as though handling a fragile glass sculpture. His tongue and hers intertwined, and every time his lips touched, she felt a connection with him.
It was like a consolation.
‘In this case, did I seduce him, or did he seduce me?’
Although it was probably the latter, she decided to be brazen. Parting her reddened lips, she whispered.
“I seduced you, and you fell for it.”
“Yes, my knee hurts now, so I want you to come down.”
“I’m not that heavy, am I?”
Jaeha grumbled and moved to the seat opposite her. As she sat in her original seat and looked at Hisran, he could see his appearance as if he had lost his composure, unlike a while ago.
Her eyes narrowed.
“Is it that hard for you to pull me and let me sit down for a while?”
“Rather than your fault… My body doesn’t know the middle way.”
“Huh…?”
At that, she tilted her head for a moment in response to his absurd answer. After a while, she asked with a trembling expression on her face.
“…Don’t tell me, did it stand up?”
“A little.”
It must have been because he didn’t want her to find out about his abnormal condition. If a half-standing object poked her butt, they would have been quite embarrassed for each other…
Jaeha shot at him in a slightly heated face.
“I can’t believe such an abnormal thing to stand up like that— Are you lying?”
“I thought I’d hear it. No, I don’t! I don’t know why yet, but there must be something special about you!”
“Did you fall in love with me at first sight?”
“No way…?”
The kiss with Jaeha was also pleasant, though it was Hisran who couldn’t say that he seemed to have been stimulated by the texture of her soft buttocks that was felt through one layer of her dress.
In front of her, his restrictions were lifted and his body reaction, which appeared naturally, was terrifying.
‘…If I say this, I will be treated like a 100% pervert.’
At that moment, he avoided her bitter gaze and exercised his right to remain silent. Meanwhile, Jaeha, who was staring at him quietly, murmured.
“We must have a control group to know for sure.”
“No, wait—! What do you mean a control group!”
Why? Hisran felt a rush of sadness and annoyance at those words.
“Does the person who was conducting the study not even know the control group…?”
“Do you want me to meet this girl or that girl and play promiscuously?”
“That’s a little troublesome.”
“But, what about the control group?”
“Isn’t that because you framed someone who just stood up just by kissing?”
“It’s better than expected!”
After arguing childishly like children over an embarrassing topic, they could see the sun hanging at the edge of the western sky. Since they left late in the afternoon, so they couldn’t get to the next town or city and had to stay the night.
The statue chose a place that is flat and has a good view. It seemed easy to get drinking water as it was close to the creek.
While Hisran tied the carriage and horse to a large tree and made a bonfire, the statue brought water and started cooking with the ingredients Hisran had provided.
Soon, a stew with a delicious smell was completed.
The hot stew was served with bread purchased at the store, so it was a pretty reasonable meal.
