Chapter 101 – Blond Nun and Promotion Battle #4

Contrary to my worries, I was able to find Kate right away.
Because Kate was right near her village chief’s house. When she opened the door and went out, Kate was sitting alone on the hill in the village.

‘What are you doing here at night? I can’t even sleep.’

I stared at Kate from behind, feeling puzzled. Kate lifted her head and looked up at the night sky with her emotional expression on her face.

‘The scenery is beautiful.’

The village headman’s house is located at the top of the village, so he was able to freely look at the night sky without obscuring his view. A dark night sky with the Milky Way flowing down. Below it was a panoramic view of the village of Kuntilla. Even I, who have dried up my emotions, couldn’t help but vomit admiration at this scenery.

Is it also the village chief’s house?
The best view in town!

“…”

On her hill, Kate sat on her knees. She stood there holding her legs in her black stockings in her arms.
She was in a pose that somehow seemed sympathetic, and I couldn’t let her go.
After a moment of waiting, I went behind Kate’s back.

“What are you doing here, Kate?”
“Ah.”

Kate looked behind her and she gave a startled look.
Like someone who has a secret.

“Now, wasn’t she sleeping?”
“Halflings don’t have normal sleeping habits, so I woke up. But I didn’t see you, so I came out to find you.”
“Ugh.”

Kate opened her mouth with a puzzled expression.

“I just came out to get some fresh air. I couldn’t sleep well.”
“Right.”

It was a bit uncomfortable to keep talking to myself all the time, so I sat down next to Kate with her butt on her back. The ground on the hill was soft, so it was quite comfortable to sit on.

Kate looked at me in the seat next to her without saying a word.
He glared at him with a slightly dissatisfied expression on his face.

“Didn’t you allow me to sit next to you? Mongma-sama.”
“Did you get my permission to sit next to the carriage?”
“It’s not like that.”

Kate didn’t argue anymore, as if she had nothing to say. Even when I sat next to him, he didn’t show any signs of falling. She just turned her head again and looked up at the night sky.

Even though she was alone with her, Kate wasn’t flirting with her like when she was in her carriage. She was just thinking about something.

“What are you thinking about now?”
“I absolutely don’t want to let you know, but to Mongma-nim.”
“That’s right.”

Are you even thinking of me? I was embarrassed for nothing at the answer that came out like a shot. But it’s also awkward to keep your mouth shut. As I was thinking about what to talk about, I realized I had something to thank Kate for.

“Kate. Do you remember the last time you gave me a ticket?”
“A ticket?”
“When we went to church to warm up the water for the foot-washing ceremony. You gave me and Rebecca one ticket each. Thanks to her, she had a good date. Rebecca likes plays.”
“Oh, you mean theater tickets.”

I looked around for a moment and then asked Kate.
Because there was something I wanted to ask about the play.

“But the plot of the play was a bit bizarre? Was it 〈 Siegfried 〉? At the end, the main couple were massacred. It ended with a miserable ending. Surely they didn’t introduce a play with that plot on purpose?”

〈 Siegfried 〉 It’s something I’ve been curious about for a long time after the play. Because it ended with a rare ending in which couples were massacred. Could it be that he showed me 〈 Siegfried 〉 to fuck me and Rebecca? I wanted to hear the truth from Kate.

“Yes? That was the ending?”

Kate opened her eyes wide and looked at me.

“I didn’t know. I just bought a ticket because it was a common heroic story. All the couples were massacred.”
“You mean you didn’t know?”
“Yeah-! Actually, I don’t know much about theater either. I think cultural life is a luxury. You know! Everyone from Evergreen Orphanage is thrifty and thrifty.”

It wasn’t really a lie. Well, when I was first introduced to it by the ticket office clerk, I only heard that it was a heroic story. Kate must have been fooled by her staff’s tongue-in-cheek, too.
Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared, the only thing left to do is really thank Kate.

“Anyway, thank you. Rebecca seems to have enjoyed the play.”
“That’s fortunate.”

After saying thank you, I suddenly felt strangely uncomfortable. There must have been something odd about Kate looking back on her words.

“Hey, wait.”
“What.”
“Didn’t you say that you got the ticket as a gift from adventurers? But what do you mean you bought it?”
“Ugh.”

At my point, Kate opened her eyes wide as if pricked for her permission. When she handed over her ticket at her church the other day, she said it was a gift from her own mouth. But did she buy it with money? That’s different from what she said!
Kate gave her a worried expression, then she opened her mouth as she let out a sigh.

“That’s right. That’s the ticket I bought with my own money.”
“Did you pay for two tickets? They said there was no guy to go see with you.”
“Why do you think there is none?”

Kate’s eyes were on me. I was taken aback when I heard her. Could it be that there was a man to go see a play with? But the very next moment, Kate said something of her own that was completely unexpected.

“Who is that?”
“It’s Mongma.”
“What, what?!”

Kate tilted her head as she looked at me in awe.

“What are you so surprised about? I didn’t mean anything strange when I bought the ticket. I wanted to make friends with Mongma-nim while watching a play. He is an important person in making Holy Water for me, and he is also an old friend. I was the only one who knew.”

A voice that is not mixed with personal feelings.
I was finally able to calm down my surprised feelings.

“Because after we met again, Dreamer-sama was dating Rebecca-sama. No matter how much you do, you can’t ask a guy who has a lover to go see a play alone, right? Rebecca-sama will misunderstand you.”
“Is it a misunderstanding?”
“That’s why I gave you two tickets that you no longer need. That’s all.”

She was Kate, who draws the line neatly. I came to a conclusion so coldly that I was momentarily caught off guard. Her heart melted when she left Kate in the seat next to her.

Wouldn’t Kate be sorting out her feelings for me now?
Because that’s what I thought vaguely.

“How much was the ticket?”
“Three silver each.”

Was the theater ticket worth three silvers?
When I thought about it, even in my previous life, expensive concert tickets exceeded 100,000 won.
As a play performed at a large theater in Yoensu, it must be expensive.
The seats were also first class with a great view of the stage.

I felt even more grateful to Kate.
A gift cannot be measured in terms of money, though.

“Do you have anything you want from me?”
“You want it?”
“It’s kind of like taking a ticket with your bare mouth. Is there anything you want as a present? Would you like a new mace?”
“I don’t need a weapon. I don’t use it well anyway.”

No, this tool bitch doesn’t need a weapon?
Are you planning to eat your life as an adventurer on a daily basis?

It was when I was at a loss for words.
Suddenly, Kate looked at me and gave me a meaningful smile.

“Instead of receiving a present, can I ask the dreamer a favor?”
“Tell me.”
“Lend me your arms and shoulders. Just for 30 minutes.”

You want me to lend you my arms and shoulders?
I thought you were trying to make me do very hard work because it was a request.
Or pestering me by asking for a kiss.

If it’s about an arm and a shoulder, maybe I can lend it to you?
It was what he wished for if he could buy a 3-silver theater ticket with his body.

“Great.”

The moment you accepted the request without any hesitation.

Swish-! Kate unexpectedly lunged at me.
She rested her head on my shoulder and put her arm between my armpits. In the blink of an eye, I was pressed close to her body by Kate.

“Whoa, whoop whoop.”

Kate looked at me as she froze and she smiled with joy. Shiny blonde hair was flowing down my shoulders. I couldn’t help but feel dizzy at the pleasant scent flowing from my hair and the tickling feeling.

“Hey.”
“Why are you calling me? You said you’d lend it to me. Nightmare’s shoulders and arms are mine now. You can’t move them.”

The more I panicked, the thicker Kate’s smile grew. Kate stayed still, her head buried on her shoulder. If someone saw us from afar, we might look like sweet lovers.

I thought you were clearing your mind.
I don’t think that was it. Rather, it got worse. As I watched her Kate, I couldn’t help but question her. What are you trying to get out of seducing me like this? Do you really mean to attack?

“If you’re going to ask for something like this, go back to Yoensu and do it.”
“No. When you go back, you’ll be hanging out with Rebecca-sama again. Because now is the only chance to be alone with Dreamer-nim.”

In the end, I had no choice but to give her arms and shoulders to Kate. Kate let out a mischievous smile as she watched me obediently lend her body.

“For today, Mongma-nim is mine.”

My heart trembled at that word.

30 minutes!
During those 30 minutes, I was dominated by sexy gadgets. Even if I tried to resist, it was impossible.
The feeling buried in Kate’s voluptuous breasts was so enchanting. It was something I would regret hitting the ground later, but at that time, I was succumbed to the tool.

*

Kate really kept her promise that night.
It fell off my body the moment 30 minutes had passed. Rather, it was to the point where I felt sorry for myself who was being closely attached to it.

“What happened today is a secret from Rebecca-sama.”
“Yes.”

As dawn began to break, Kate and I went back to our rooms. I lay down, but I had no intention of falling asleep anyway. It would be hard to wake up in the morning if you slept here.

The morning is bright and after all the party members have woken up.
I told the old village chief that I was leaving.

“We are leaving, Chief.”
“Please get rid of the orcs! If you find a kobold’s nest, be sure to tell me. Here’s a map of the abandoned mines I’ve prepared for you.”

I obtained a map of the abandoned mine from the village chief. After thanking the village chief, we immediately left for an abandoned mine near the village. Coincidentally, a friendly villager showed us the way to the abandoned mine.

An abandoned mine in the village of Kuntilla.
At the entrance of the abandoned mine, I stopped the party members for a moment. There was something I wanted to do before entering the mine, which was no different from a dungeon.

“What happened?”
“To make a water whip.”
“A water whip? You can go in and make it.”
“Because making them in advance will be a relief. Besides, there are some things I want to add to the whip.”

Instead of explaining at length, I pulled out a water whip. Then, holding the finely folded whip in his arms, he signed the hand sign.

“Boiling.”

Magic that raises the temperature of water.
The moment I recited the starting language, the water whip that touched my skin began to heat up at high speed. As time passed, the whip of water bubbling up in my arms was complete.

“The water is boiling.”
“Hot!”

The boiling water whip that he had practiced during the preparation period before the promotion was now used in practice. Instead, my hand holding the whip was hot as if it were scalding, but there was a solution to that problem in advance. It was the heat-resistant gloves I had bought at a general store.

3 Silver Heat Dissipation Gloves!
The moment I took the gloves out of my backpack and put them on my hands, the heat transmitted to my hands was blocked.
It is possible to hold even a whip of boiling water in your hand.

All preparations are now complete.
The only thing left to do is to go inside the abandoned mines and kill the killer orcs.

“Let’s go, everyone.”

We finally entered the abandoned mines.
We moved through the dark cave by relying on the light of the lantern.
