Chapter 186 – Chapter 179 – I Hear a Knock (5)

As soon as I entered Karine’s special room, I heard a terrifyingly loud noise.

Unlike private bedrooms, special rooms and other facilities have normal levels of soundproofing.
However, it seemed as if everyone had really gathered in the living room, to the point where you could hear a terrifying sound upon entering Karine’s studio, which was quite spacious.

“Do you have kids?”

“Huh. Except for the potty who can’t wake up in the room, everything is there. Among the 40 kids, Una came out.”

Karine continued her speech as she made her way through the insignias of her own making.

“I couldn’t help but wake up when Sylnia went around screaming at her as she went around her girls’ room.”

“What the hell did you hear?”

Hernan felt puzzled.

When Silnia finds her target, I know she has a tough personality to rush in and see, but this is the first time she has woken everyone up like she is now.

“If you heard the sound anyway, Sylnia would be able to understand it most accurately, right?”

Besides, aren’t Silnia and her children the most sensitive when it comes to sound here?
There is no need to ask other people.

“You spoke so fast that I couldn’t understand you properly.”

Carine answered by lightly tapping her fist on the door to her hallway.

“A knocking sound?”

-Smart

Karine sneered and knocked on her door.
Hernan also smiled and signaled to open the door.

“L!”

As soon as I opened the door, I heard Silnia’s cry from the living room.

You probably heard the door open.

“Did you not hear? Didn’t you hear Were you awake?”

Hernán, who moved her feet with her belated sharpie, received Silnia’s impassioned question as soon as she entered the living room.

“What did you hear? Besides, he wakes up all the sleeping women and children.”

She questioned and turned to the children who were grouped together with their siblings.

Everyone looks very sleepy.
You probably don’t like the current situation.

In contrast, Sylnia’s drowsiness seemed to disappear immediately.

“Knocking!”

However, the spittle marks on her mouth and her hair, which was long and tangled, were still there.

“Yes, Sylnia. Could you explain what the knocking sound means?”

Marina asked, stroking her daughter Lenny’s hair with her hand.

“Wasn’t Hernan and Sharpie also here? Please calm down and explain in a way that everyone can understand.”

“No, I told you!”

Silnia still couldn’t contain her excitement.

“I heard a knock!”

Marina frowned a little on her calm face.
Seeing that, Carine sighed and whispered to Hernán.

“That will be the 10th already? The way Marina asks questions and answers Silnia doesn’t understand.”

“Are you glad you didn’t spit out the elven language in your excitement?”

Sharpie must have heard that too, so she giggled and stabbed Hernán in the back.

“Does Hernan speak elvish?”

Hernán shrugged her shoulders, lowered her, and moved toward Silnia.

“A knocking sound? Where did you hear that?”

“Of course it is my room! My room is very quiet because I’m working on my own without you!”

I’m not usually excited.
I saw nothing coming out.

Hernán resisted the urge to sweep her face, and decided to wipe Silnia’s face instead.

So he hugged Silnia.
The elf was startled and wrapped his arms around Hernan’s neck.
But soon she hastily lowered one hand.

“Wait a minute! I’m wearing a skirt now!”

Silnia freaked out and hurriedly lowered the skirt of her nightgown.

This side also helped the elf act by pulling Silnia’s buttocks.
Come to think of it, why did Sylnia wear a skirt more often these days?

She used to feel weird wearing her skirt, so she didn’t wear it often.

“Let’s cool down for a bit.”

When Hernan smiled and said, Silnia’s face immediately heated up.

“It’s hotter this way…”

The elf hurriedly looked at the women and children around him.

Hernan followed those eyes and scanned the surroundings.

As expected, Marina was blushing in her surprise, and Karine was trying to hide her twisted feelings.

“Dad, me too!”

“Me too…”

The kids seemed to think that Hernán was going to give Silnia a ride on her flight magic as usual.

And the demon king.

“…”

She avoided Hernán’s gaze, pushing only her own daughters toward her.

“Hey, El!”

Silnia looked at Hernan and patted her red ears.

“I, in front of others, this is… Ugh?”

Because of Hernan’s sudden movement, Silnia hurriedly grabbed his clothes.
And she was dragged into her bathroom.

“Wait, can you? Hey! Suddenly what…”

“Sylnia!”

And at the end of that agony, her high voice was cut off.

* * *

Silnia opened her mouth in a more dignified atmosphere.

“I was in the middle of my sleep.”

Silnia looked very calm, wondering where her earlier excitement had gone.
In particular, the dripping of her cold water on the table and the floor seemed to prove that she was in an extremely cool state.

“But suddenly there was a knocking sound.”

“Wasn’t someone else knocking on the door?”

Marina smiled shyly and handed over the towel Lenny had brought.

Hernan nodded her head in gratitude and accepted it.
And with her very delicate touch, she wiped Silnia’s blue hair.

“Rub your scalp and wipe it off.”

“Of course.”

Silnia felt somewhat disappointed that things were different from what she expected, but she answered Marina’s question with her face saying that this wasn’t too bad.

“You know I can’t even tell the difference between sounds? It was a smart knock, but not a knock on a door.”

“Smart?”

Karine copied the expression and narrowed her eyes.
She tilted her head as she handed hot tea to her children, starting with her own twin.

“If you’re smart, isn’t that a typical knock on the door?”

When Silnia saw that the women’s gazes were not nice, she furrowed her brow and groaned.

“Okay… It sounded like a rattling sound. It sounded like something was about to explode.”

“Tadadak? Explosion?”

This time the sharpie tilted her head.

“Didn’t Silnia’s kids run around while her mother was sleeping?”

“Ethan!”

Silnia called Ethan who was playing a prank on Lenny.

“Why?”

“Did you pretend to be asleep and get up and run around?”

“No.”

Silnia sent her affectionate glance at her son’s reply.
She and she squinted at the sharpie.

“Did you hear?”

A simple yet direct conversation.
The Demon King seemed to feel that the conversation was absurd for a moment.

But instead of retorting, he smiled.

“Okay… These conversations aren’t bad either. I don’t think Silnia is going to lie.”

“Will Ella say something like that?”

Ella had been clinging to her own mother ever since she was a little while ago, and playing with her.

Had her own mother’s strangely limp figure caught her eye?

Hernán slowly took his eyes off the children and opened his mouth.

“But Sylnia.”

Silnia interrupted before Hernán could continue her speech.

“But Ernan, don’t you change your clothes? Did you go to the bath with me?”

“It was originally intended to only wipe the face, but you pulled it and both fell out.”

Hernán ran through his wet, wavy hair.
And she thought the chill wasn’t bad for keeping her sane.

“Anyway, Sylnia, did you hear the sound in the room?”

“Okay. Was it to the point where I couldn’t hear anything wrong?”

“By the way, the soundproofing of the private rooms here is almost perfect, isn’t it?”

Silnia turned her head away, bobbing her head.
She blinked her eyes and met Hernán’s gaze.

“So?”

“So, unless you knock on the door yourself, there is no sound from outside, and there is no sound from inside.”

At Hernan’s explanation, Marina nodded her head.

“I’ve never heard a sound from another room unless the door was open. If there was no soundproofing, everyone would not be able to sleep because of the children crying every night.”

When she had finished her words, she gave her newborn baby to her own breast.

Silnia, the queen of this place, scratched her head looking at the chest.

“So what I heard…”

“It’s a sound that can’t be heard in the room.”

Karine tidied up and knocked on the table.

“Nobody knocked on Silnia’s door here, right? Then it’s not like someone came to your room and made noise through the door.”

“In addition, the soundproofing is so thorough that no outside noise can be heard except for direct knocking on the door.”

Hernan hung her towel on the back of the chair as he listened to Carine’s words.
He now arranged Silnia’s hair and concluded her.

“In other words, Silnia, you heard a sound that couldn’t be heard.”

“Chit, you and Karine go very well together.”

Silnia grumbled and pricked up her ears.

“So you’re saying that it’s the sound I heard in my dream after all? Did I wake you up after hearing nonsense?”

Hernan smiled lightly and rubbed the area around her earlobe.

“Thanks, it was fun. Isn’t it nice to get together at night like this sometimes?”

“Okay. It was fun. There was also a case where Hernan and Silnia were soaked in the bathtub earlier.”

The saintess immediately agreed with a smile.

On the other hand, Karine responded by forcibly hiding her uncomfortable expression.

“From now on, how about having a drink and getting a good night’s sleep? Then you won’t even dream.”

At those words, the atmosphere slightly hardened.

Whether Karine intended it or not, there is plenty of room for this to be interpreted as a provocation.
Silnia’s drink on the day she lost her virginity was made by Karine.

Hernan forcibly pushed out of her head the incident that caused Silnia to hate Karine decisively.

Instead of chewing on the incident now, it would be better not to give Silnia a chance to accept Karine’s words as her provocation.

“I know it’s not a big deal, so let’s all go to sleep. And tomorrow…”

“Quiet.”

When Silnia interrupted Hernan and raised her hand, Hernan felt dizzy.

“Sylnia. Because it’s late…”

“Shh!”

This time, the voice came not from Silnia, but from under Silnia’s legs.

“Dad! Shh!”

Son of Silnia and Hernan.
The boy, now running around, pricked his ear, putting a finger to his mouth.

Only then did the women and Hernan shut their mouths, and the children who were chattering were also covered.

“Sound.”

Silnia opened her eyes fiercely and looked across the hallway from her.

“A knocking sound.”

It was still a quiet living room for Hernan and the others who were not elves.
But the elves and half-elves kept moving their ears, listening to something.

“Where are you?”

Hernan, who was looking at the hallway, whispered just enough for the elf to hear.

“Stomach? Under?”

Silnia, who was more silent, immediately raised her head and opened her mouth.

“Stomach!”

“Everyone is here!”

Hernan said that and immediately started running down the hallway.

Behind him, he heard a Sharpie shouting hastily.

“In the garden, Elle, you feel dizzy!”

“I’ll only open the door at the entrance!”

Hernan said so and jumped up without hesitation.

The voice that Silnia kept hearing.
Now Ethan heard that too.

Then she wouldn’t have heard anything completely in vain.

“Hernan!”

I hear Karine chasing me from behind.
Maybe it’s the sound of more people’s footsteps.

Those who run after ignoring Hernan’s instructions may be coming because they are worried about Hernan.
Or maybe you just want to see the huge meaning of the knocking sound.

Isn’t the knocking sound a signal from ‘outside’?

It is no wonder that everyone is excited about the opportunity to contact the outside world for the first time in years.

– Tuduk

From about halfway up the stairs, a tapping sound was heard in Hernán’s ears as well.

“This… ?”

Hernán, who hesitated for a moment, felt a strange familiarity with the rhythm of the sound and jumped up at a faster speed.

Reaching the end at once, he opened the Garden of the Night with Sharpie.

And he stopped with his gaze fixed on the ceiling.

“What is this sound?”

Karine, who had followed her carrying her twins, stood beside Hernán expressing her doubts.

The twins in her arms opened her eyes wide.

“In the sky!”

“Something off!”

Soon after, everyone else came up.
And everyone was embarrassed by the familiar yet unfamiliar appearance.

“Rain?”

The rain, which had never fallen since the garden opened, was pounding the ceiling very hard.

It was such an intense rain that even Silnia, who came from an area with a lot of rain, could see it with her mouth open.
Probably because there was no glass in the ceiling, it would feel painful if it was hit directly.

“Is this rain? That’s amazing… !”

Ella stared blankly at the ceiling.
The child’s voice was soon drowned out by the sound of heavy rain.

“Is this what I heard?”

Silnia chewed her hair with her slightly dejected face.

“Uh, anyway, I didn’t hear that wrong, did I? It sounds like knocking!”

“An elf is an elf.”

Carine also nodded her head, watched the rain falling for the first time in a long time, and heard the sound of the raindrops pounding on her.
In fact, she was not only herself, but everyone else too.

Of course, Hernan did too.

“Okay. Silnia, I think I really heard you knocking.”

Hernan’s small words were drowned out by the roaring sound of rain.
That’s why Silnia didn’t seem to notice what Hernan said.

Hernán opened his mouth again as he watched the ripples of water spreading across the pitch-black ceiling.

“And someone is hiding it with a similar sound.”

And there is only one being who can and has the will to do this.

Hernan stood in the middle of the sound of rain, flipping through his wet hair.

“Drank.”
