Chapter 172 – Rosario? It’s an Ominous Name

After a passionate relationship, we came out of the shower together and tidied up the living room without anyone saying anything.
In fact, there was nothing special about tidying up.
I gathered all the photos I took out, put them in a disposable box, and threw the picture frame there.
When the work was finished, the doctor had a refreshing expression.
It seems that my heart is really relieved.

“Should I burn it now? Go to the yard?”

Dr.’S question. I shook my head from side to side.

“No. My sister handles this alone. I’m going to teach Sylvia and Adele how to ride a driverless taxi tomorrow, so try it then.”

“Why?”

“This is your chance to say your final goodbyes. I hope you leave well while thinking about this and that by yourself.”

When I touched the last remaining sense of guilt, the doctor let out a worried sigh.
Yeah, he interrupted you or something… No matter what, he’s a person I’ve loved for a long time, so reactions like that are normal.
She looked at me with her sullen expression and accepted her offer.

“Okay. But just because I answer like this doesn’t mean I love her husband. I already promised to give you everything. So don’t get me wrong.”

“Don’t get me wrong. I said that because I was in a state of knowing your heart well in the first place.”

“Yes…”

“Are you sure it’s okay not to take medicine?”

“…If you tell me to eat, I will.”

“I have to be alone for a while tomorrow, but if I hallucinate again, I’ll be in trouble, so eat.”

“Okay.”

The doctor who nodded her head weakly, took the medicine, and then came to me and hugged me.
Then he speaks in a tone full of remorse.

“If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn’t have said anything to you…”

“What are you talking about?”

“I… I was angry when you were on drugs. Now you’re treating me kindly when I’m a crazy bitch…”

“That and this are different. The comparison itself is wrong.”

“Still… I’m sorry I couldn’t come…”

To think that the long-awaited doctor had become so obedient and pitiful.
I feel a great sense of outrage.
I wrapped my arms around her doctor’s thin waist and looked down at her with her benevolent eyes.
The doctor, who was staring at me as if to put me in her eyes, pursed her lips.

“I feel strange…”

“What?”

“I never thought I would see you as a man, whom I thought was just a smart and trustworthy assistant, and fall in love with you so much. I never thought I would depend on you so much.”

Just like me, the doctor was comparing the past and the present.
Doesn’t it sound like a story from a distant past even though it’s not that long ago? I understand everything.

“Is that enough to make you feel weird?”

“You said it wrong. I love it.”

“So do i. Shall we go in now?”

“Yeah… Stay with me all day today.”

Looking outside, the sun was slowly rising.
I smiled and hugged the doctor.
Then he went to her bedroom and put her down and covered her with a blanket.
I said, patting her pointed nose with her finger.

“Today, let’s not get out of bed except when eating and going to the bathroom. What do you think?”

“Okay… Oh, and I need to get the ring…”

“Come back tomorrow when I’m not there.”

“Yes…”

[Mr. Jihyeok! Why aren’t you coming (,,Ծ‸Ծ,,)]

[Going now. It arrives in 10 minutes.]

[It’s past the promised time! (ʘ言ʘ)]

[Sorry. The car is blocked…]

[Are you talking while driving? In the news, I heard that there are a lot of people who got into accidents while using their cell phones while driving…]

[It’s in automatic driving mode. It is a technology that guides you to your destination even if you are lying down.]

[Are you calm? I was looking for it on my phone right now. The car’s automatic driving mode doesn’t change lanes well! Is that why you’re late!?]

I’m looking for you soon

[I’ll be there soon.]

[Am I finished preparing? Hurry! (ﾒﾟ皿ﾟ)]

I need to prepare something to ride an unmanned taxi… I’m overdoing it.
After refreshingly chewing on Adele’s tok, I grabbed the steering wheel and unlocked the auto mode.
I’m waiting for you to lose my throat, so I have to go quickly.

The car arrived at the outbuilding in Uijeongbu shortly after.
At the same time as brainwashing the doctor, I have to prepare for the attack on Adele…
First of all, he clearly developed a crush on me.
Not as a man, but as a ‘human’ Song Ji-hyeok, but I didn’t feel particularly impatient.
Sehwa, Yuria, and the doctor started from this state and twisted it.

After thinking about various things, the car entered the Uijeongbu house.
After parking in the outdoor parking lot and opening the driver’s door, Adele came out of the front door wearing a white polka dot dress.
The level of cuteness bursts out when adding white sandals with ribbons near the ankles.
But what kind of picnic are you going on now? It’s been a long time since autumn, but it’s ridiculous.
I’m good at eye candy, though.

Behind her, Sylvia, wearing simple training pants and a long-sleeved T-shirt, came out with her tired face.
At first glance, he seemed to give up when he tried to dress Adele in a comfy outfit, but she wore her hair.
Adele is innocent at best and immature at worst. It’ll hurt her a bit when teaching.
But the taste of eating it seems to be great.

Adele, who jumped up to me, looked at the time on her phone and said with a pouty face.

“Mr. Jihyeok! You are 7 minutes and 21 seconds behind the appointment time!”

“I’m sorry.”

“They say people who don’t keep their appointments are the most hated!”

“Where else did you hear that?”

“In game chat! The guild members did that!”

“Ah…”

I’m glad we got along, but… I guess you didn’t find out that you’re from another planet, right?
As I watched Adele through her suspicious eyes, she smiled.

“Do not worry. Nobody knows that I came through a portal!”

Even if it’s blind, you have a minimum of notice. Thank god.
Adele made a fuss about her being late, that she had to pay the fine.
Sylvia comes forward to us and expresses her gratitude.

“Thank you.”

“What?”

“You must be busy, but for fulfilling Adele’s immature request.”

At those words, Adele glared at Sylvia.
A face that looks like it’s complaining. She’s so cute you’ll want to pull your cheeks.
Sylvia casually ignored Adele’s gaze.

“I am going to do some exercise. The two of you take a taxi. Tell Adele, and I’ll learn on my own.”

Then I’m fine.

“All right.”

“I’m sure he’ll whine a lot today, but you can ignore it. Then take good care of Adele.”

“Ah, yes… Don’t worry and come back.”

Sylvia, who gave me a wistful smile, unraveled her, and she did a light jog, and she walked away.
As I looked at her back, I heard Adele’s voice and she came to her senses.

“Mr. Jihyeok, you have to do one favor of me! Instead of being punished!”

“Request?”

“Yes! Request!”

I thought it was funny, so I crossed my arms.
This is the whining Sylvia was talking about.
Let’s stay still with a face asking me to say something, and after hesitating, Adele says her request.

“I want to visit the Cathedral of Earth. Can you take me?”

It was a bit of an odd request.
Enough to ask questions without even knowing.

“A cathedral?”

“Yes. Please go to the nearest church by unmanned taxi. I’ll just look around, so don’t worry.”

It’s a cathedral… I don’t think you’re going to pray because the god you worship is different.
Seeing Adele with her arms crossed like me with a triumphant expression on her face, it seems that she understands that she should do her favor.
I narrowed my brows and spat out.

“I do not like it.”

“Yes!?”

Adele opens her mouth in disbelief.
It’s really funny how shocked you are.
I chuckled and corrected my words.

“It was a joke. Go.”

“Wow!”

It was she who stretched her arms out to the sky and shouted hurrah.
Emotions are shown openly, and the ups and downs are like waves, and there is a taste of teasing.
Isn’t it the rule of the country that a saint from ancient times should be gentle, elegant, and have deep insight? Adele is the complete opposite.
I’m fine, though.

“Did you tell me to install the app?”

“Yes! A taxi app!”

“Turn it on.”

“All right!”

**

“Give me a card…” Came out! Can I meet you here?”

It was Adele’s question, her eyes wide open.
I said, shaking her head.

“Yes, try it yourself.”

“Wow… I’m nervous…”

Adele placed her hand on her own chest and let out a long exhalation.
When she puts her card on the screen in the back of the seat, beep! With a sound, the phrase that the calculation was completed popped out.

“Uh… Is it over?”

“Right. Is it easy?”

“It’s so easy…”

Adele muffled her words with her bewildered face.
I took her out of the taxi and explained in a gentle tone.

“This is the end of the taxi calculation method. If the place you want to go is far away or you don’t have much time, take a flying taxi. The calculation is the same as for this unmanned taxi, so don’t be afraid.”

“A flying taxi? It’s a flying taxi, right? I saw it a few times while taking a walk!”

“Right. And since this card I gave you will solve most of the things that require money, if you feel embarrassed, pay the card. Did you know?”

“Yes! Thank you!”

Adele bowed her head.
Lively tension. Even just looking at it, the smile of a father comes out of nowhere.

“Shall we go to the church now? It’s a weekday afternoon, so there won’t be many people… It’ll be comfortable to look around.”

“Yes!”

Adele whoa! After putting in a choo-im-sae, he jumped once in place.
As she looks up at the large, well-designed cathedral, she admires it.

“Wow… That’s so big…”

“On the planet where Adele lives, a place where you can pray like this is called a temple, right?”

“Yes, I always run. It’s like a 24-hour convenience store. But there are not many people who come to the temple.”

“Why is that?”

“Because if you have faith, you can pray anywhere.”

He tried to speak lively, but his tone showed a sense of sadness.
The people on that planet don’t seem to have much faith.
And it seems that only one god is enshrined, judging from the fact that they do not mention other temples.

Adele sighed softly and then she asked.

“Do you believe in God, Jihyeok?”

If I am God himself, why should I believe in another god?

“I don’t believe it.”

“I’m sorry. Belief is a great strength…”

Yes, it’s a great power when you see that you purify a human infected with demonic energy.
It’s a power that’s opposite to mine, so I have no intention to learn it.
I stayed still with a smile on my face.
Then Adele must have gained courage and said this to me.

“When I have time later, may I share Rosario’s doctrine with Mr. Jihyeok and other colleagues? Silvia’s older sister, she’s disappointed because she doesn’t try to learn.”

Rosary? It’s an ominous name that gives off the smell of the god of light just by hearing it.

“Are you Rosario?”

“It is the name of the goddess I serve. You are such a wonderful person.”

What’s great… There’s no such thing as a very fucking bitch.
Wait, did you say Goddess? OK… You’re welcome too.
It seems that the existence of the final boss level is clear, but I will corrupt all beast slayers and pick up four years.
For some reason, I think that that girl and Aether are related, but at least let’s not ask now.

“If I learn the doctrine, will I be able to use the divine power?”

“Unfortunately, unless you are a chosen saint and representative, you cannot use the divine power.”

“Okay. I will ask others.”

“If others refuse… I hope Jihyeok will listen to the doctrine. Would you do that? Yes?”

If you accept that offer, you will definitely have more time to be close to Adele.
I have to agree and pretend to learn.

“I will think positively.”

“As expected, Mr. Jihyeok is the most kind person.”

I’m the worst person… No, I’m the Demon King?
I think it would be really fun to peel you off.
I said with a grin.

“Now, shall we take a look inside the cathedral?”

“Yes!”
