Chapter 43 – There’s a Pretty Cute Corner Though

I didn’t know that Se-hee would contact me in less than a day, so I would put it into practice. The texts I sent from 8 am this morning were sent every 30 minutes like a machine. The text message sent was simple. What are you doing now, where should I go with you later?

I sat on the bed and replied to Sae-hee’s text message asking me to take a tour of the university, saying that I knew it, and put my phone down next to it as if tossing it. Now, taking a breather, I started putting on the socks I had taken out before the text came.

But the world didn’t let you have that moment. It was because as soon as I put on one pair, I heard the password being entered from the front door.

Beep beep beep beep beep!

There was only one person around me who entered without saying the password.

I woke up from bed wearing only one sock, thinking that the demon king had come. However, the door did not open despite the sound of unlocking the lock. No, it was open, but it remained slightly open and did not move. Thinking something had happened in the hallway, I headed for the front door and asked.

“Hey, what’s wrong?”

“… Courier has arrived. Mr. Jiheon.”

Through the gap in her door, she heard her voice talking low. It sounded like a male voice imitation, but it was the voice of a demon king. If he had been a real courier in the first place, he would have pressed the doorbell instead of dialing the password.

Knowing that he was trying to trick me again, I accepted the prank.

“Leave it in front of you.”

“Hmm? This has to be signed.”

“What sign? Where is your company?”

“Ooh, from the post office.”

“The post office? Then the driver, please. How much is my tax?”

Jump!

“Eight! Stop!”

As if he couldn’t accept it anymore, the demon king opened the front door and asked again. Unlike yesterday, she was wearing a loose green sweatpants and had a pouty expression because she couldn’t play a joke on me.

“Something! Why are you treating me like a real courier!”

“Are you a knight? Then you should treat him like you would treat a knight.”

“Are you going to do that to the knight?”

The demon king grumbled as he took off his shoes at the front door. She was wearing sweatpants as usual, but with a white paper bag in her hand.

I asked her as she came into her room.

“What is that?”

While sitting on the bed again and putting on socks, the demon king held up her paper bag.

“You mean this? Her mother sent it for you, yes.”

“So what is it?”

“It’s just side dishes. Kimchi, namul, things like that.”

“Do I have side dishes in the refrigerator?”

“Jim said that too, but he didn’t listen.”

She opened the refrigerator door and started putting the side dishes in the bag one by one. I saw that and said it again.

“No, I already have!”

“Don’t pretend you hate it. I know what you like.”

“No it’s not?”

“And Jim made some, so look for them.”

“… Put it in a corner there! Don’t mix!”

“Heh, okay.”

As if he knew everything, the demon king snorted and completely emptied the paper bag. She folded the bag flat and threw it toward the front door.

Seeing the paper bag spinning and flying like a tray, I argued with the demon king.

“What if I blow it?”

“Can’t you throw it away when you go out later? What are you so nervous about?”

After answering shamelessly, she closed the refrigerator door and came over to the bed where I was sitting. And there was a desk chair and another space for the bed, but I sat close to me as if I was sticking to it. Even if it moved sideways, it followed that much, and it stuck so tight that thighs and thighs were facing each other, so they didn’t fall off.

I gave off a sweet scent and gradually turned my head to the demon king who was leaning on my body. But the smile she saw right before she turned didn’t leave her head. To shake it off, she shouted in the bluntest tone she could.

“Oh no, hey! Get away!”

Despite my words, the demon king looked around him with exaggerated movements as if acting.

“Where the hell am I supposed to go?”

“Go aside! A book, a desk chair, or a seat on the floor.”

“Ah, isn’t your room too small? It’s so narrow that I have no choice but to stick to it. You understand.”

It was an absolute lie. The other day, we lay down in this room and slept (only) together!

Still, thinking about that day calmed my heart to some extent. I calmed my pounding heart thinking about the noise the demon king made when he vomited into the toilet.

While taking deep breaths small enough not to be noticed, the demon king called me.

“You.”

“Why.”

It seemed that now, no matter what she said or did, she could answer calmly. However, that resolution was broken more easily than expected.

“Isn’t this the moment we talked about before?”

“What a chance.”

The demon king came to my ear and whispered.

“Call me Jim by name.”

“!”

Her whispers in her ear shuddered, and goosebumps as she whispered to her. Her goosebumps tried to cover her ears with her hands, and she stared at her with her startled eyes. The demon king saw my blushing face and smiled broadly as if the plan had succeeded.

“Uh haha! What kind of guy has such a short liver?”

I deliberately argued with anger to hide the shame.

“No, you’d be surprised if I whispered to you too!”

“You mean Jim?”

“Okay! I was surprised the other time too!”

I remembered what happened at the clothing store. When I whispered in my ear, the Demon King let out an unusually cute scream. Wow! Do.

Even though he must have remembered such a thing, the Demon King smiled confidently.

“Oh, would you like to try it now?”

Having said that, he turned his head and stuck out his ear. She continued her words, revealing her white ears even as she pushed her neat silver hair back with her hand.

“Jim is now ready. Now, call me by name.”

“You… !”

I finally realized that everything was planned by the demon king. He provoked me so that I had no choice but to call out his name, and I fell for the foolish provocation.

“Come on. Jim is waiting for you.”

I could see the corners of her mouth rising on the side of her face. Watching him smile cleverly, I put up a final stand.

“I will not!”

“What?”

At my reply she opened her blue eyes and turned her head towards me. I looked at her like that and replied with her blunt tone.

“I have to go to school now!”

“Ah, can’t we fall for it once in a while?”

“I already fell for it once, eh!”

As she spoke, she leaned her upper body towards me, pushing her chest with both of her hands, knocking me down. It didn’t hurt because it was on her bed. I was about to get up right away, but the demon king knelt down on me to prevent me from doing so. I was taken aback when I saw her lying on her knees with her heels on either side of her.

“Oh! Hey!”

“If you do this, you won’t be able to escape easily, right?”

The demon king smiled mischievously and looked down at me with sparkling blue eyes. At this time, her silver hair flowed down, and she felt as if she were in a world full of silver.

“Now, call me.”

“… “

“Is it burdensome to see Jim? Then do this.”

Her face came slowly. The demon lord, who had come close to kissing her, moved to her left, making her own ear touch her mouth.

“I’ll be really disappointed if you don’t call me after all this.”

At this time, I was out of my mind. The scent of her silver hair that covered my face vibrated in her nostrils, and her voice in her ears made her head dizzy.

“… Cow”

Her name came out of her mouth automatically even as her head was in a daze.

“Yes, tell me.”

“So, heeya.”

“More clearly!”

“It’s Sohee.”

“Umm… !”

She purred like a cat and got out of the way on top of me. At the same time, she grabbed my pillow by her side and rolled over her bed, hugging her tightly in her arms.

“Mmm! Kuck!”

She rolled over like that and she ended up falling out of bed.

I barely came to my senses while the demon king performed the eccentricity. Raising her upper body, I looked at her as she rolled off the bed.

“Under! Jim must be so excited!”

Still holding my pillow in his hand, the Demon King rose. She smiled at me with her reddened face.

Until now, the only thing that made my heart pound for her was when she pushed me. It was lovely to see her pampered with a mischievous smile. But it was the first time I was thrilled to see him smile so proudly as usual.

“Your face is pretty red, isn’t it?”

“Are you like that too? Are you satisfied now?”

Her face was unbearably hot, but I wanted to be proud like her. I got up from bed and approached the demon king.

“Uh, uh, why are you coming?”

“I’m going to get my bag, bag!”

It was time for the lecture to begin. Because he came, it was a little later than usual.

I passed by the demon king and went to the desk and picked up the bag I had been carrying with me to school. Putting her bag on his back, I passed her again and headed for her front door. Now, as long as I put on my shoes and go out, I could not show my embarrassment.

But right before I opened the door, the demon king called me with a laughing voice.

“Wait a minute, sweetie!”

“Why. I have to go out.”

“I think you forgot this?”

I raised my head and looked around the room. Next to the bed, I saw the demon king smiling with the corner of his mouth raised. What she gave me was my phone that I had thrown on the bed earlier.

“… Bring it to me.”

“Ruler. Here it is. Don’t panic and get it right.”

“Noisy.”

She came to the front door and handed her phone. But he didn’t go back from there, he just stared blankly at me.

“Why, what is there?”

“Get out of the way. Shouldn’t you be leaving your luggage?”

“Weren’t you here to play?”

Even as she said so, she opened the door and went out into the hallway, clearing the front door so she could put on her shoes comfortably. While waiting, the demon king folded the heels of his sneakers and hurriedly left the room.

While I heard the sound of closing the door and locking the door, the demon king asked why.
“Do you know that Jim only plays every day?”

“Then why are you here?”

“I came to school with you. Besides, didn’t Jim bring you side dishes?”

When she said that she was going to school with me, I laughed. I smiled and walked down the hallway towards the elevator. We joked as we went.

“Why did you miss my handsome face so much?”

“Do you think you are good-looking?”

“Hey.”

“Still, there are some pretty cute corners.”

“… ”

I pressed the elevator button without answering. As luck would have it today, the elevator arrived right away. I asked while my head was hot as I entered.

“Where are you cute?”

I have no idea why you asked this. You can ignore such nonsense like before, but why bother asking and creating an awkward atmosphere?

The door closed, and the demon king reached out and pressed the 1st floor button.

“Well, sometimes it’s cute being stupid like this. And,”

The hand that pressed the button reached out to me this time. With that hand, I pushed my chin against the elevator wall.

“Would you mind looking at Jim for a second?”

The blue eyes and eyes met with the touch. Looking at the blue sapphire-like eyes, shame filled my head. I was embarrassed to keep looking at her, so I turned my gaze to her, and she smiled and continued her words.

“The way you look away every time you see each other like this is the cutest thing.”

“… Get your hands off me.”

I couldn’t stand it, so I pulled my head back and escaped from the demon king’s hand.

“Also, taking it out because you’re so shy is cute.”

“Stop it now.”

“It’s also cute that you asked me to stop.”

“Oh shut up.”

“It’s cute that you’re rough-mouthed to hide it.”

She repeated her words of being cute until the elevator reached the first floor.

“Well, we have arrived. Get off now!”

“Keugh… !”

The door opened and the Demon King walked out with a lively look. Meanwhile, I was red and sweaty, like someone who had been locked up in a hot sauna for a day.

Hearing that I was cute over and over again made me feel ashamed and hot, so I thought I was going crazy. Still, I was walking while enjoying the cool breeze outside, but the demon king called me from the doorway.

“Hey, come over here!”

At that moment, I thought he would tell me that he was cute. But she approached slowly, wary of when to say cute.

“What.”

“Someone sent you a letter!”

“Did you know it wasn’t there?”

“Is there?”

“… No.”

If there was a need, it would be the Military Manpower Administration.

I accepted the letter from the demon king. However, this letter envelope had no postage stamp, neither the sender’s nor the recipient’s address. It was not even glued at the entrance, as if it had been bought and put in right away.

“What is this?”

Judging by the texture he held, it wasn’t even empty. With a suspicious feeling, I took out the letter inside and looked at it.

Inside the envelope was a folded sheet of A4 paper. A photo was printed on the paper, and the main characters in the photo were me and the demon king. Against the backdrop of a cafe, the scene where the devil reaches out his hand to me sitting across from him

Was stamped however,

“This… !”

Part of my face was badly damaged by the scabbard. I knew that my appearance needed a knife, but seeing it drawn like this was terrifying.

Only I was the one who sent the intensively damaged photos. I knew someone like that. Yuri was the only person who could do this.

“Isn’t Yuri sending it?”

“What?”

I looked at the demon king who said something unexpected. She was looking up at me with a serious expression on her face. What surprised me was that this photo itself was there, but the demon king noticed that Yuri was following me.
