The Character I Created Is Obsessed With Me

67 – A Brief Respite (10)

As expected, Kayla was eavesdropping through the door.

Before I could finish talking, the door opened.

As Kayla entered, the pressure felt on her body intensified.

Erina hugged her body without thinking of leaving me.

She managed to drop it with her strength, but then put her hand up her leg.

“Erina. Wait a minute.”

“I don’t like it. Please only look at me when I am with you.”

The eyebrows furrowed over the pouting lips were the behavior of a five-year-old child.

Looking back, she often looked out of place for her age.

He obeys my words obediently, but rebels, gets angry, and cries uncontrollably.

He was no different from a young child.

When Erina was created, her age was set at 21 years old.

It didn’t mean much.

I just decided on an age that suits my looks.

However, the time she lived in this world was only her two years.

In other words, Erina’s body is 21 years old, but her mental age is no different than 2 years old.

Thinking like that, I was able to understand a little of my immature behaviors and obsessions until now.

The problem was that Erina was not an ordinary child.

She was much stronger than me.

At least she followed me unconditionally, so she’s a mess.

What would have happened if you didn’t listen to me and acted on your own?

I couldn’t even imagine what had happened. At least with her strength, there was no one to stop her.

So she decided to change her methods this time around.

“Erina. Wait a minute, I want to talk to Kayla. So why don’t you step out of the way for a bit?”

He stroked her hair in a calm voice.

It is a careful movement as if treating a child.

Come to think of it, I always tried to push her or control her.

This time, on the contrary, I decided to treat them with a warm touch and a calm tone.

Then Erina immediately blushed and her pouting expression eased.

Even so, she doesn’t let go of her hand.

“But… “

As expected, words seemed insufficient. I decided to give it one more try this time.

“Let’s take a walk together tomorrow.”

“Yes…?! Really?”

“Yes. It’s been a while since we both walked around the city and ate delicious food.”

Erina’s face turned red.

We’ve always stuck together until now, but we’ve rarely been together.

It seems that I, who always pushes away, didn’t know that I would propose first.

She nodded her head with a puzzled expression.

“Can you wait a minute instead?”

“Yes… ! Yes It’s okay if it’s just a moment!”

The action was swift. Erina politely stood up and gave Kayla her seat.

‘I’ll have to treat you this way from now on.’

A long time ago, I saw a program that corrected the behavior of a troubled child.

Among them, there was an advice that I remembered among the lines the counselor said.

Treat your child with warm interest rather than scolding and reprimanding him unconditionally.

Erina is not a child, she is 21 years old, but it has worked.

I turned my eyes away from her pleasing snort.

Unlike anyone else, there was a person who quietly waited for my words.

“Kayla.”

“Yes, my lord.”

In an instant, the eyes of the two met.

Master is a title I used to call only when I was alone with myself.

It was clearly not a mistake.

Kayla was deliberately using titles.

Could it be that the words were meant to provoke Erina?

For that reason, Kayla’s expression was infinitely serious.

For now, we decided to skip the naming issue.

Before that, there was work to be done.

“First, apologize to Erina.”

“Yes…?”

“What you said earlier was too harsh.”

Clearly, it was Kayla who provoked it first.

You don’t deserve to be by my side.

You won’t be able to protect your comrades.

Hearing this would make anyone angry.

Her eyes widened in embarrassment for a moment, but Kayla obediently followed my words and lowered her head.

“I’m sorry, Miss Erina.”

Erina didn’t say anything even after hearing her answer.

Receiving an apology, Ma Dung only looks at me.

I can’t erase the smile on my face as if I’m still in a good mood.

I just smirk at the thought of going for a walk tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Kayla subtly hardened her expression.

But she didn’t even make her own excuses, as if she was aware of her mistake.

And on this occasion, she made sure to drive her nails.

“Don’t fight Erina again.”

“Okay.”

“And stop following.”

“I’m quitting.”

Unlike anyone else, a cool answer came out.

“And I have a question.”

“I’m listening.”

“I’m trying to recruit her colleagues.”

Suddenly, Kayla’s gaze was distracted.

It was a fleeting moment, but the corners of her mouth twitched and trembled.

It wasn’t a very positive sign.

Still, I believed that if it was Kayla, she would obey my words.

However, an unexpected answer came back.

“…I’m against it.”

I never thought Kayla would disagree with me.

While I was perplexed, Kyla quickly voiced her opinion.

“Erina-sama and her lord are protected by the goddess. I am also a dragon and being chased.”

She was right. There was no party with as many secrets as ours.

If the wrong person came in as a colleague and even betrayed me, it would be difficult.

However, the colleague I marked out in advance was different.

Celica would understand the whole situation.

In my memory, he was the kindest person in the world.

He wasn’t just a nice person.

He was also a colleague with strong faith and conviction.

If you get her trust, you should be able to keep her secret.

And I knew all about her settings and episodes related to her.

If things went as I expected, I could easily attract them as colleagues.

“Don’t worry about that. I’m not going to recommend anyone.”

“I’ve never doubted the lord. But I think the three of us are enough.”

An unexpected difficulty arose.

At this level, I thought that Kyla would also obey my words.

But I couldn’t forcefully command them.

Even in the position of leading the party, she could not ignore the opinions of her colleagues.

Above all, I made a promise with Erina.

Decided not to receive her peers unless a majority.

“Okay. I’ll put it on hold for now.”

She has decided to back off now.

Anyway, after meeting Celica and talking about her, it was in order to accept her as a colleague.

“That’s all I have to say.”

Originally, there was still more to say. I wanted to ask a little more about Kayla’s true intentions.

But as long as Erina was watching, she didn’t want to talk about it anymore.

There was nothing good about causing unnecessary trouble.

After the situation was sorted out to a certain extent, only fatigue remained. The sun has already set a long time ago.

It’s still early to go to sleep, but I was very tired today.

“Let everyone rest.”

I sat down on the bed and watched the two of them.

A silent fight ensued, but it didn’t last long.

Both of them noticed my gaze and hurriedly fell.

“Sorry. Lord.”

Erina put her sword back down.

Kayla also took off her robe and returned to her normal self.

‘How many more things like this will happen in the future.’

I hoped this would be the last time.

However, even after thinking about it myself, I couldn’t come up with a positive answer.

***

She found that when she was too stressed, she couldn’t sleep.

Raised the upper body with an unpleasant sensation. His eyes trembled and his body felt heavy.

The sun was just coming in from the dawning sun.

My ears tickled at the sound of birds chirping through the window.

“…Good night.”

As soon as I got up, Kayla also woke up.

The same goes for Erina, who was right next to her.

Even though they fought to death the night before, they couldn’t seem to give up sleeping next to me.

It was better to move my body than to stay still.

Roughly tidying up and getting ready to start the day.

Even though the sun had just risen, there were many people busily walking around the streets.

A well-armed party that goes out on request.

The owner of a restaurant opens the door with a yawn.

A guard returning to the guard post for a shift.

The scenery seen through the window is simple but friendly.

“I’ll go to the requesting office for a while.”

“I will follow you.”

“I’m coming too.”

The two caught up as if it were natural. I didn’t say anything because I already expected it.

After briefly getting ready, I left the inn and walked down the street.

It didn’t take long to get to the requesting office.

It was early in the morning, so there were few people.

On the other hand, the receptionists were moving frantically.

And there were some familiar faces among them.

“Colin.”

“Oh, hello!”

Even though I was busy walking around, Colin found me and greeted me with a bright smile.

I was glad to see you even though I met you just yesterday.

In her hand was a thick wad of paper.

From the looks of it, it appears to be a new request.

It seems that he is in charge of organizing the request board every morning.

Her I thought it was a good thing, so I asked her.

“Is there any new expedition request?”

“Oh, yes! Three came in today.”

Colin found three requests in a stack of papers and gave them to me.

Among them, one request caught my eye.

Helen Village.

Target: An unidentified demon that appeared near the village.

Reward: 30,000 gold. (Loots are settled separately.)
