Becoming an Angel 3 Years Later, the Empress Began To Obsess

Chapter 22.

#22.

What to do to save a house in the Middle Ages.

I was able to confidently answer that I don’t know.

I lived as a slave for three years, and this was the first time I came out into the world.

If I knew how to find a house, wouldn’t that be strange?

That’s why, for me, Lucia’s visit was truly fortunate.

Because Lucia was born and raised in this world.

But…

“I-I don’t even know…?”

Lucia breaks down in a sweat when I ask if she knows how to find a house.

I was taken aback by that.

“Why, why don’t you know..?”

“That’s because I had a house right after I was born..!”

“Ah…”

At Lucia’s continued words, I let out a breath close to a sigh.

How did you interpret it?

Lucia tilted her head and said.

“Are you homeless?”

“…”

I shut my mouth.

How is this different from asking if there is a mother?

Regrettably, in both my past and present lives, the existence of a mother has never existed to me.

Yes.

My expression started to turn sullen in an instant.

“Huh??”

Lucia shouted in bewilderment, probably not expecting me to make such a face.

… Actually, she wasn’t too hurt.

Just a little bit of salt water in an open wound.

This level of psychological pain was nothing more than child’s play to me, who had been under the emperor for three years.

By the way.

“That…Are you okay?”

Lucia’s blue eyes trembled in her eyes.

The wriggling of her lips.

His hands spread out in embarrassment.

For some reason, all of that makes me laugh.

I just kept making a sad face.

“Ah, Iris.”

“Hey!”

One more drink, and now he even turned his head away.

“Huh… Iris, I’m sorry. Let go of that expression. It’s my fault.”

Before long, Lucia started crying.

‘I should have done this.’

“I’ll take a look.”

I smiled and said to Lucia.

Then Lucia smiled brightly, as if she hadn’t noticed when she started crying.

“hehehehe. Then let’s go find a house.”

“…”

It was me who glared at her for a while, but well, it wasn’t because she really wanted her to apologize.

“Hee hee, thank you for forgiving me. Aw, cutie!!”

Lucia, who managed to find out about the change in her feelings, started fiddling with my cheeks while shouting.

The cheeks in her hand start to stretch like cheese once again.

I would be lying if I said that touch made me feel bad.

The touch of soft and soft hands.

But.

“…Don’t do it.”

I turned her head away with a swish of her touch.

Her face seemed to have turned red again.

I pressed the hood down deeply to hide the change in my face.

“Okay. Okay. Let’s go for real now.”

“Don’t pull the ball, really.”

“I got it!”

Lucia shouted as if she meant it.

Then I turned her head and looked at her with her pouty face.

She then gives her hand as if tossing it casually.

“… Huh? Ah.”

After looking at it for a while, Lucia soon let out her grin and held her hand.

“…Because I’m afraid I’ll get lost.”

I trembled at the sound of that small laugh and spoke in a wriggling voice like an earthworm crawling.

“Yes. Iris won’t know where the guild is. She’s never going to want me to hold her hand. Is not it?”

“…Don’t make fun of me.”

“hehehehe. I’m not kidding. Anyway! May I guide you to the guild?”

“…”

Instead of answering, I nodded her head.

Looking at that, Lucia took my hand and started walking in front of her.

I entrusted my body to her without resisting her touch.

I wonder if it’s been that long.

Kiki…

Lucia opens a certain huge door.

“Wahhahahahaha—!!!”

As soon as the door opened, I heard the voices of the men having a chattering party.

The sound was so loud that it seemed like tinnitus beeping in my ears.

“Ugh…”

My eyebrows naturally furrowed.

Yes or no.

There was no sign that the sound of them throwing away their plates had died down.

“…Let’s go for now.”

Lucia also let out a small sigh as if she felt it, and she took the lead.

Because she was a head taller than me.

Standing behind Lucia, I would not be completely hidden from view if seen from the front.

“Excuse me.”

Lucia stood in front of the counter and shouted.

Simultaneously.

Knock.

The noise from the surroundings suddenly diminished.

“Whoa…”

A person who had never put a glass of wine in his hand even for a moment set it down on the desk.

The drunken voice, which seemed unlikely to stop, disappeared.

All eyes turned to us.

Their tenacious gaze made my back tingle.

“Lu, Lucia.”

The atmosphere was unusual.

The wits I had cultivated while working as a slave for three years were ringing an alarm in my head that this place was dangerous.

So, I reached out and tugged at Lucia’s cape.

“It’s okay. I’ll figure it out on my own.”

Then Lucia turns her back and strokes my hair once.

… Because don’t do it

She pouted her lips at him, but deep down she was very grateful to her and depended on her.

Actually, I was a little scared.

No, I was very scared.

Being among so many people.

“…”

I didn’t know until now.

It was the first time I had escaped from the academy and been to a place where so many people gathered.

Odeul Odeul.

My body was shaking.

Among those numerous people, one seemed to be hiding the Emperor’s helper.

Perhaps by now, the nun who found me might have reported it to the emperor.

Then the emperor will surely visit me.

That pain.

It was the sound that the light might burst out of my chest once again.

And if that actually happens, I’m sure I’ll be locked in the cage again.

“Ugh, ugh…”

The emperor and his office came to mind.

I hate it.

She shook her head.

I never wanted to go back there.

I could feel the eyes of the people.

A sharp gaze scans my body as if stabbing me with a knife.

“Don’t look…”

Frightened by that gaze, I pressed the hood down deeply.

She lowered her face and tightened her grip on Lucia’s cape, which she was holding on to in anxiety.

“Huh..?”

Did you feel that sensation?

Lucia, who was talking to the man at the counter, turned her back.

With her head down, I wasn’t aware that she had her back turned.

The only time I realized that she had turned her back was when a white hand suddenly appeared in my field of vision.

“…”

Hands with baby-like skin without a single blemish.

After looking at the hand for a while, Lucia’s voice came from above her head.

“Hold Iris. I’m scared too, so I want you to hold my hand.”

“…”

It was a friendly voice.

A very warm voice that shakes people’s hearts.

At the sound of that beautiful voice, my head was lifted.

Then it caught my eye.

Lucia with a big smile said her words.

“Come on. I’m scared.”

As soon as her blue eyes met mine, they curved in an arc like a colorful rainbow.

Then she moved her hand and held my hand tightly.

“Iris’s hands are warm and nice.”

Having said that, Lucia slowly took my hand and moved me to her side.

Then, I pull her two hands that are facing each other and place them on my chest.

Exciting.

I could feel her heartbeat in her hand against her chest.

The hot heat from her ran through her hand and warmed my chest.

Heart pounding..!

The fire in his heart that had been extinguished by the heat was rekindled.

My heart began to do its job.

“…”

A dark room.

My eyes vibrated as if a candle that stimulated my emotions was swayed by love.

Hold on.

I gripped the hand that held her tightly against her.

I didn’t want to miss it.

Her hands.

Her existence itself, called Lucia, was like a rope that supported me as I was hanging off the cliff.

“Let’s stay like this. Understand?”

Lucia said.

I nodded and answered in a small voice.

“Yeah…”

“I’ll finish it soon.”

After saying that, Lucia turned her gaze towards the counter.

Then I began to feel the stinging gazes that I had forgotten about piercing my back.

However, for some reason, I wasn’t scared at all.

Surprisingly, the anxiety from a while ago completely disappeared after holding Lucia’s hand.

Just like thick fog blown away by the wind in an instant.

The turbid air that had been swirling inside me disappeared in an instant.

All of that came from Lucia.

Lucia’s throbbing feeling in her hands now calmed her heart.

The soft touch of the chest hugged me tightly.

“What will the price be?”

Also, her fresh voice melted my frozen heart.

She was a light to me.

“120 Gold would be appropriate.”

“Yes? What…A house like this can be bought for 60 gold!”

“Hey! How can you pay for it to someone who can’t even prove your identity? Would you go if you didn’t need it?”

The only thing I can rely on in this harsh world.

He was my one and only friend.
