Episode 158
He was fiddling with it, tilting his head and looking down at me, and all I could think was why he was suddenly like this.
“Oh yeah. It’s like that. “I don’t dye my hair or get a perm.”
“Oh yeah?”
“huh. Actually, Eundami dyes her hair and pays a lot of attention to setting her hair, right? It definitely looks a little spoiled. ah. However, I heard that slightly damaged hair does better when setting, so I don’t necessarily need to take care of it, right? If you’re still interested, I’ll tell you about the treatment I use! “I bought it at the supermarket, so it should be easy to find.”
“Ah…”
Now that the Korean dungeons have closed and things have become a little more peaceful, I guess I have more time to worry about things like this.
Actually, I’m at the age where I like to show off.
My younger sister, Seungju, isn’t interested in this at all.
“The treat I use . “What’s the name of the mont?”
“Now wait a minute. sister. “Are you feeling anything now?”
“What does it feel like? Oh, I don’t mind touching your hair, but if you suddenly pull it, it will hurt, so be careful.”
“No, I’m this close… Sister, aren’t I handsome?”
“uh? You are handsome. I think he’s 100 times more handsome than our Seungju! “Everyone else said you looked like a celebrity.”
Taking care of your appearance means you are sensitive to your appearance.
I did my best to encourage Yoo Eun-dam’s confidence in his appearance so that he would not be hurt.
He smiled happily and praised me, but for some reason, Eundam Yoo looked very embarrassed.
“what’s the matter? Eundam, you are handsome. Have confidence! Plus, you’re really good at decorating things. If you get to know my younger brother later, please teach me. “We’re probably similar in age and have a nice personality, so we’ll be able to become friends quickly.”
“Oh well. Yes…”
He’s handsome, Eundam Yoo! Eundam Yoo, he’s fashionable! Eundam Yoo cheered him up by saying, “Yup!”, but Eundam Yoo just smiled morosely, pretending not to be able to win. “…Yes, it’s not that different
…. ”
Yoo Eun-dam, with his head down, seemed to be muttering something to himself, but I decided not to ask any further questions.
He is a delicate teenager who graduated from high school yesterday.
I’m at an age where too much attention actually annoys me.
Then, I should talk to adults.
“What good happened?”
Seo Ji-han looked like he was suppressing a burst of laughter.
Then, when I spoke to him, he urgently avoided eye contact, cleared his throat a few times, and played it off.
But the nape of the neck was slightly red.
“Mr. Ban Seo-jin?”
Ban Seo-jin was floating in the air, holding his stomach and silently laughing.
The sound of the person cracking and laughing really sounds like a person on the verge of death.
“You are truly amazing.”
Ban Seo-jin, who barely returned alive from the threshold of the underworld, was impressed with a smile still on his face.
And he continued speaking in a light tone.
“Anyway, what are you all going to do? You said you would rest today, right? “Do you want to go fishing?”
“Fishing?”
“huh. “Let’s play and see who can catch the sea first.”
Yu Eun-dam immediately burst into laughter at Ban Seo-jin’s words. I shook my head slightly with an awkward expression.
“That’s a bit much. “There is somewhere I have to go first.”
“where?”
“I want to meet Mr. Elfanis. “I need to go and ask if they need any items and talk about the integration of the dungeons yesterday.”
I felt a little sorry for the family staying in the dungeon because I gave all the set items to these three people.
So, I wanted to go as quickly as possible and ask for the items I needed and take care of them.
“Oh yeah?”
“yes. “Would you like to go with us, Ban Seo-jin?”
In response to my question, Ban Seo-jin glanced at Seo Ji-han and briefly waved.
“No, nothing in particular. If you want to test the performance of the equipment you received, it’s easier to break things in the dungeon… but if I go and show off the set equipment, you’ll feel a little awkward, right?”
I was surprised.
Was this a person capable of such delicate consideration?
Because he couldn’t hide his surprised expression, Ban Seo-jin immediately narrowed his eyes and stared at me.
“Why are you so surprised?”
“yes? No, I’ll go first. “I think it would be best to go quickly.”
I quickly opened the gate, ignoring the persistent gaze that was glued to my back. And then I went to the dungeon with Seo Ji-han.
Although my sudden appearance may have been quite annoying, Elfanis welcomed me with a gentle smile as always.
He was rubbing Pergis’ back and shoulders with a thick brush.
I think we’ve become quite close during that time.
“Oh the king has come.”
I saw Pergis leisurely lying down in front of Elfanis, chewing something that looked like straw.
The deer found me and just lifted its head to greet me.
Seo Ji-han did not respond to the greeting and was just looking around.
It seemed like they were probably looking for Lordran. I asked a question on his behalf.
“hello. But what about Lordran?”
“Oh, I’m doing some chores in Huwon’s field. Shall I call you?”
“yes? No, it’s okay. But…you two have become very close.”
Elfanis smiled at my words.
“When we talked, we found that we had a lot in common. “Pergis spends more time here than in my area.”
“Well, if you didn’t want me to stay here, you shouldn’t have brushed me like that.”
“I’m just grateful to be the companion of a quiet old man, but how could I not like it?”
“Really…? Rub the side of that neck a little harder. Oh, right. There…”
I was surprised that they were getting along well when I came here before, but they seem to be much closer than I thought.
It was quite an amusing sight to see Pergis’ huge body hanging limply under Elfanis’ small brush.
“And although it’s late, congratulations. Yesterday the dungeon was expanded again. I saw something that looked like an island starting to float in the distance. “I also saw Rodran with great interest.”
Elfanis congratulated Fergis while brushing him indifferently.
As said, Nafgis’ domain was seen to be adjacent to Pergis’ domain in the opposite direction.
“The king’s hegemony is widespread… hmm… it’s an honor… reduction um.”
Pergis seemed to be muttering something and congratulating himself, but his eyes were already half-closed. He was completely intoxicated by Elfanis’ touch. “ Thank you
. I should have come to you sooner.”
“No. You have finished a big job, so you should get some rest.”
“Thank you for your concern. Are there any inconveniences during your stay?”
Elfanis answered my question leisurely,
“Thanks to the king’s concern, I am at peace.”
“Ugh… That’s right. There are no intruders…”
Wouldn’t it be better for Pergis to just sleep now?
It seemed doubtful whether my words were even being heard, but in the meantime, I made sure to get answers.
Should I be proud of this?
“Actually, it’s been a long time since Fergis and I have been as peaceful as we are these days.”
“Then until now…”
“Yes. While I was worrying about who would die this time, whether I would be able to win the final hall, and whether a second evacuation would be possible, I suddenly heard about an unexpected death, so I had no peace of mind. .”
“ah.”
“Even if the peace is short-lived, I want to cherish this moment. If I had one wish, I often think that more people would have survived and come to this place together.”
Elfanis, who was smiling calmly, seemed at ease as if she had let go of all her thoughts.
However, I could not continue speaking for a moment because I felt the unimaginable sadness and pain hidden behind it.
Pergis, who had been lying down leisurely, quietly opened his eyes. He glanced at Elfanis and then closed his eyes again.
I somehow understood why these two had become friends so quickly.
When I met Pergis, survival was his top priority.
To him, I lost most of my race and became a young knight. Wow, the sight of Elfanis guarding the dungeon alone must have seemed like nobody’s business. The
deer’s eyes were full of deep sympathy.
“There was a device in that newly acquired dungeon that made equipment items.”
To lighten the mood, I first got to the point.
Elfanis looked a little surprised and her eyes were wide, but she was quietly waiting for my next words.
“It looks like neither of you are wearing any equipment items. I came to see if you needed anything. .”
“If it’s an equipment item, I already have it.”
“I’m there too.”
Elfanis was only wearing pure white robes and had no weapons or accessories.
“Are those clothes you’re wearing equipment?”
“That’s not true, but I usually take it off and put it in my inventory.”
After saying that, Elfanis put down the brush for a moment and took out a vest-like armor with fancy gold decorations and showed it to her.
“Why didn’t you wear it when you met me?”
When we first met, Elfanis was wearing only a pure white robe, like now.
So I mistakenly thought he didn’t have any equipment items. Although Lordran was wearing a sword.
“You go there to promote goodwill, but you can’t go there armed and talking.”
Elfanis’ quiet answer made me realize it again.
He truly bowed his head before me, ready to throw everything away. To save Lordran.
One day, in passing, he said that he was really happy and grateful that I was human.
Actually, if I were a Chungwang type or a Water king type, it would have been impossible to even start a conversation.
This priest and an A-class Nioh-style knight with minimal combat ability would have been torn to death in an instant.
“okay. “If you still need anything, please let me know.”
“Thank you just for the words. In fact, I have my own set of equipment items because of the experience I have had over the years.”
“okay. “Oh, Fergis…”
“I’m there too. I’m already wearing it.”
“You’re wearing it?”
Although he said so, there was nothing covering the deer’s smooth body.
Seeing my puzzled expression, Pergis carefully got up from his seat… and suddenly turned brown.
“Huh?”
This time, without any time to be embarrassed by something so sudden, Pergis spread out a pure white leather piece in front of me.
“This is what I was wearing.”
Isn’t it a little strange for animals to wear leather?
