chapter 21
21 – Yeah. Laugh a lot even now
I don’t know why I asked Zeria to go to the party with me.
It was clear that she was crying because of me, and I thought I should say this to ease her mood.
Fortunately, though, Zeria nodded her head when she said she was going to a party.
Curiously, her tear glands also began to stop little by little.
‘Whoa.’
I let out a sigh of relief inside her and looked at Zeria who calmed her down.
A cat’s eye torn to the side of her red hair.
When I first saw her, I had a strong impression of her, but seeing her blushing cheeks and tears welling up, I felt that she was quite cute.
Looking at Zeria like that, I slowly opened her mouth.
“But it’s not just a normal party we go to.”
“Yes… ?”
Zeria tilts her head and looks at me.
Still, since he was a party member, I told him what dangerous things the party we were going to do tonight.
“It’s a crazy party with women and men on either side, drinking expensive drinks and sipping drugs in a high-pitched mood.”
“No, drugs… ? Do you do drugs?”
“Are you crazy? Why do I do drugs?”
“Then why do you want to go to such a dangerous place?”
“Of course I’m going to beat them all. There seems to be a lot of nobles as well as the upper class among them.”
Yes.
Even an ordinary guard of the upper class can easily be thrown into a kkamppang.
But there are nobility in it?
Then again, the words are different.
Aristocrats were distinctly different from commoners in their essence, so nobles could send at least ordinary guards silently.
Then what should I do to beat them all?
The answer is simple.
I just need a noble like me to lead the guards and beat them up.
The more she listened to my explanation, the more Zeria’s expression began to straighten.
And when I’m finished, the corners of her mouth go up, like a child looking for a fun toy.
“Then I will go too. If I’m in danger, you won’t protect me.”
“If you have skills like yours, you think you will do it yourself even if I don’t save you?”
“I seem to have forgotten. Am I a girl too? What if the nobles over there approach me? I’m a commoner, so you know best that I can’t lay a hand on them.”
“It’s okay. Fenia will change the appearance anyway.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“Yes. So you can run wild without fear of retaliation.”
At my words, Zeria nodded her head.
And she looks at me with a little worried look.
“But I’ve never been to a party like that… …. How should I wear things like clothes?”
“It’s okay because we have a lot of clothes in our house. Or would you like to try it on now?”
“Is that okay?”
“Yes.”
I am the eldest son of a marquis family.
Even if I had no interest in the next heir, I was most likely to be the next heir.
Who would say that I brought her guests, and in the first place, she came into her mansion several times and ate her meals, so there was no one in her mansion who did not know her.
Entering the mansion, we were taken to the room where Lila, her sister, changed her usual clothes.
Knock. Knock.
I knocked on the door as a courtesy, but no voice came from inside.
When I opened the door with a squeaking noise, a large wardrobe the size of my own caught my eye.
“Are these all clothes?”
“Yes. Change into the clothes you want here.”
Originally, she had to get permission from her younger sister, Lila, but these days, the relationship has gotten better, and she probably wouldn’t react much to the fact that I borrowed some clothes.
‘What. If you get scolded, just buy me a new set of clothes.’
The surplus was money, so I thought so and closed the door for a while so that Zeria could change her clothes.
After a while, the door slowly opened.
“How is it?”
It was the first time she tried on fancy clothes, and her face burned red.
I admired her shy clothes.
The outfit Zeria chose was a red off-the-shoulder dress that showed off her collarbone and shoulders.
I didn’t notice when she was wearing clothes that were easy to move in, such as a uniform, but when I saw her body in a tight one-piece that revealed a three-dimensional effect, I knew that Zeria’s body was unusual.
As I stared at her clothes, she asked anxiously if I thought they were weird.
“Is it very strange?”
“No. Do you get along pretty well?”
“Really? Thank god.”
At my reply that it suits her, she let out a sigh of relief.
“I didn’t know it when it was hidden under clothes, but you have a pretty good figure?”
Fenia, who checked her clothes by her side, answered that, and Aline, who was standing next to her, nodded her head in agreement.
“First of all, there is quite a bit of time until the party, so let’s have a meal.”
Perhaps it was due to sparring a little while ago, the ship growled and signaled for food.
So we immediately moved our feet to the restaurant.
When I moved to the restaurant, while I was choosing clothes, the food was empty to some extent as if I had started eating first.
As we appeared in the restaurant, one by one they looked at us.
There were many cases where I was late for meals because I was usually sparring until late, so I often ate first like this.
Lyla’s hand, which was slicing the steak gracefully, moved toward Zeria, who was standing next to me, and Lila’s fork stopped.
And Zeria, who met Laila’s eyes, also froze.
“Wow! Sister Zeria. Are you sure the clothes were in my closet?”
“Ah, yes…. Sorry for wearing it without your permission.”
“No! It’s my own, but it suits my sister very well!”
“Is that so?”
“Yes! It didn’t fit me well, but I think her sister should have it.”
“Thank you.”
Even though they ate together for several days, Zeria used her honorifics for Lila, who was younger than her.
When she asked Zeria, who was alone, why, she replied, “How could she, being a commoner, speak plainly to a nobleman?”
Also, I asked if I should use honorific words, but as the eldest son of a marquis, I felt that it was quite precious for someone who spoke plain language to me.
I thought I knew why Fenia allowed me to speak short.
She later found out that she was 17 years old, one year younger than me.
*
After the meal, time passed and the time for Aron’s party came.
Before moving to the party, we changed our appearance with Fenia’s appearance change magic.
“That look is also quite suitable.”
With her cat-like eyes, Zeria’s face changed into a puppy-like bright expression.
But in order not to confuse her person, Zeria’s still red hair still matched her dress.
Alyn and I also changed our appearance to the same appearance as when we met Aron’s gang the other day.
Come to think of it, Aline didn’t care that much even though her own appearance changed to a woman.
She doesn’t seem to care about her appearance since her goal is to disguise.
“Then take good care of yourself.”
Fenia used teleport magic towards us.
Purple magic rose beneath our feet, and in an instant, light engulfed us.
Kung.
When I slowly opened my eyes, I saw the image of the Harlem area I had been to before.
“This is Harlem Furniture….”
It was her first time visiting Harlem, and she noticed that Zeria was a little nervous about the unfamiliar environment.
The eyes of the people around her glanced at Zeria at the appearance of Fenia, who did not fit in with Harlem.
“Don’t show off like you’re here for the first time. It attracts attention, but the more you look around, the more it attracts you.”
“Okay….”
At my words, Zeria turned her gaze to me.
She and she started chatting with me naturally.
It was natural and comfortable for me to have a conversation like this.
“But isn’t Fenia coming with you?”
“Yes. I can’t handle him.”
To be honest, Alyn couldn’t handle it either, but she still brought it because if I told her to stop, she would barely listen to my commands.
Following the map Aron gave us, we moved our feet and soon arrived at our destination.
“Is this the place he talked about?”
“I think so.”
I nodded slightly at Aline’s words.
At that moment, feeling our presence, a man approached us.
“Excuse me, but if you are going to the party, please give me your ID… …. What, it was your guy.”
Rondo approached with a smile, recognized me and Alyn, and changed her face.
I also shook his hand with a friendly smile.
“It’s been a while. Rondo.”
“I was worried that he might not come. hehehe.”
With such a fishy laugh, Rondo shook my hand.
“By the way, who is the lady next to you?”
“I brought a guest to the party this time…. Couldn’t you have brought it?”
In response to my answer, Rondo’s gaze slowly turned to Zeria next to him.
Then she let out an eerie laugh and raised the corners of her mouth.
“A beauty like this would be welcomed by us. Keuhh”
“Thank God. Then, can I also take care of security outside?”
I would have liked to go inside the party hall, but Aron had hired me to guard, so I couldn’t go inside.
“No. I and my gang will take care of this, so you just have to stop the guests making a fuss inside the party.”
Unexpectedly, as I wanted, I was put in charge of guarding the inside of the party.
I raised the corner of my mouth and stepped into the party hall, telling Rondo to do a good job.
Has the noise blocking magic been installed?
When I opened the door, I heard a loud noise that I hadn’t heard before.
“So what about me? Did you make those spoiled bastards unable to climb and turned them into blood clots? Ha ha ha!!”
“Really? Do you use your strength differently than you do?”
“Why? Show me my strength hehehe!”
A middle-aged man boasting of himself with a flushed face as if drunk, and a woman sitting next to him matched the mood.
As I turned my head to the other side, foaming at the mouth, as if already intoxicated, “hehehe.” There were people laughing,
When I turned my head once again, it was easy to see that he did not hesitate to curse and s*xually harass me, as if he didn’t care about the eyes of the people around him.
Women pouring alcohol into glasses or sitting on chairs were almost covering only the important parts with clothes, and it was no different from naked bodies, so it was difficult to know where to look.
It was at that time that Zeria’s expression distorted at the sight of those beast-like figures.
“Your lady. Would you like to have a drink with this brother?”
The fat man who was already wearing the woman on her right handed Aline a gruff look.
Alyn looked at the man and showed a glimpse of her sword at her own waist.
It meant that he was the one who came to guard the party.
However, the man opened his mouth as if he didn’t care when he saw Allin’s sword.
“Looks like a security guard, isn’t it okay to have a light drink? Don’t just stand still, let’s come over here and eat delicious meat together. hehehe!”
“Meat?”
Gulp.
At the moment, Aline swallowed without realizing the word meat.
As the man said, the table he was sitting on had food that was quite expensive.
Allyn turned her head towards me.
She seemed to notice that she wanted Alyn to eat the food on her table too.
I let out a deep sigh and nodded lightly.
‘Well, if anything happens, Aline will take care of it.’
Allen was stronger than me, so I decided not to worry too much.
Me and Zeria left her Aline behind and moved her feet inside her.
As we moved deeper, another room caught our eye at the end of the large party hall.
There was a sign in front of the door that said “Chairman’s Room,” But it seemed that Aron, the organizer of the party, was inside.
Knock. Knock.
When I lightly knocked on the door, the door slowly opened as if I had waited.
The first thing that caught my eye was the outfit of the woman who opened the door. She was wearing clothes with a small area of fabric to the point where her face felt hot.
“What business did you come to? .”
“I’m here to see Aron.”
A familiar voice came from behind the woman as if she had heard my voice.
“Since you are my guest, just tell them to come inside.”
“Yes. Excuse me.”
At the man’s command, the woman immediately came out, bowed her head to Zeria, and left her seat.
As the woman stepped aside, the interior of the room that had been covered came into view.
It was a room with more splendid ornaments and luxuries than the party hall behind it.
It’s like the first time I woke up in Rail’s room, although I’ve gotten rid of everything now.
“Did you say your name was Jinwoo?”
“Yes. Mr Aron.”
“Don’t stand uncomfortably, sit comfortably. Ha ha ha!”
Aron smiled as if meeting a friend he hadn’t seen in a long time.
To be precise, she was smiling at Zeria who was sitting next to me.
Yes.
Laugh a lot even now.
I laughed with Aron, who didn’t know what would happen in the future.
