Chapter 220 – Year-End Party

Episode 220 – Year-end party

In a friendly atmosphere, the conversation between us continued even during the meal.

“So that’s it. Deborah thought we were lovers? It’s so absurd.”

“Is it so? “It’s amazing that you entwined a maniac and a magic tower owner.”

“Therefore! What is the age difference between us in the first place? . Who in the world is your grandmother’s grandmother’s grandmother… Huh! Anyway, would you like an older person?”

Roxana hastily tried to reveal her exact age, even if only vaguely.

Her age was not expressed in detail in the game, so I was wondering if I would find out about it this time, but I am a little disappointed.

Still, she decided to be satisfied since she got the hint that it was three digits.

‘More than I thought… Me?’

Because she lived in a world where it is rare to see even 100-year-olds, Roxana’s age she felt very distant for a moment, but when I think about her state her, I think it may be rather small.

Even elves who lived for a thousand years were at a lower level than Roxana.

I let out a smirk from her mouth while thinking about Roxana’s age in her head.

“I don’t care about age or anything like that, right?”

“What? You said that last time, and you’re doing it again? I’m saying this because I haven’t actually experienced it. “If it actually happens right in front of you, your thoughts will change, right?”

“Really?”

“Yes!”

His confidence without even the slightest hesitation makes me want to refute it.

I glanced at the sideways at Deborah.

Currently, she was struggling with shame, unable to easily face the scene where she was digging into her own dark history.

Now, I think I can smoothly get over even jokes that are a bit over the line.

I made a decision.

“Then, shall we date for just one day?”

Roxana’s eyes widened as she spoke, playfully sticking out her index finger.

She looked at Deborah, probably confused, and turned on her double wick and shouted.

“W-what? Are you crazy? I am Deborah’s teacher! “There’s nothing you can’t say?”

“What do you think? It’s not like we’re seriously dating. And above all, Deborah and I aren’t really dating, are we? Right?”

“Yeah, that’s right. “I’m just a colleague.”

Deborah agrees, but she looks glum as if she is sad about this reality.

But when I squinted her eyes to the side that Roxana couldn’t see, her face brightened as if she knew it was a joke.

I saw Roxana again.

“Is that so? How is it? Roxana.”

“W-what do you think? Don’t be weird and just eat your food! “I’m going to go to the bathroom.”

“Uh? Are you running away? “You have to answer.”

“What an answer! Of course I don’t like it! Just play around like that again. I know it’s going to be a really big problem!”

Roxana left a warning as if she was annoyed at even answering something like this and disappeared.

Deborah, the two of them, quietly asked a question.

“Luan. That… Just in case, you’re not really interested in Master, are you?”

“What if I say there is?”

“Yes, yes? Is this there?”

Deborah was visibly agitated when she left room, probably thinking she would say no.

The sight of him in deep worry, with his eyes constantly rolling back and forth, makes me laugh.

Just before I could give the answer I wanted after fully enjoying that face, Deborah, who had finished thinking, nodded her head with a determined expression.

“I’m fine!”

“What?”

“If Lu An wants Master, he can support him. So you don’t have to worry about me!”

“Hmm…”

For a moment, I forgot what to say.

I never thought that he would even allow her relationship with Roxana.

Even cheering?

‘Is it because of that?’

Deborah said this the other day.

I will try to make this world better than my hometown. For that purpose, it is okay to bring 100 women.

And as if to prove his words, he stimulated Alyssa to confess honestly.

In the end, it can be said that this decision was made in the same context.

I smiled bitterly and asked.

“Deborah. It’s a joke. Joke. “Didn’t you understand it earlier?”

“Are you squinting? I know that. But Master, are you so beautiful? Even if it’s not now, if we continue to be together, my mind may change. “You don’t know what happens later.”

Deborah seemed to seriously believe that I could fall for Roxana.

It’s not that I can’t understand.

Roxana is a beautiful woman as the saying goes, and in the end, the more time her man and woman spend together, the more they develop feelings for her.

One day, it may be like what she said.

But, at least not right now.

“Let’s think about it later. Do you want to live your life anxious about something that may or may not come? Today is a party. Just enjoy it.”

I gently stroked Deborah’s cheek.

Then she smiled, rubbing her cheek as if she was enjoying the touch.

“Yes! “I will.”

“Good. So, shall we start the party in earnest? Deborah. “Do you have alcohol?”

“Yes. There is. Master prepared it in advance. It was said to be fruit wine made from the fruit of the world tree!”

“Oh really? “Isn’t that something that only happens once every 100 years?”

“That’s right! “It’s so delicious!”

After breaking away from the serious atmosphere, we started setting the table again.

Remove the empty plates and cover them with drinks and snacks.

Right after the table was completely transformed, Roxana returned.

“Uh? What. “You already set it up?”

“Came? Please take a seat. “I want to try fruit wine soon.”

“Master. Come on!”

We were excited to drink fruit wine and quickly sat Roxana down.

She said with a grin.

“What’s wrong with you guys? Especially Deborah. “You didn’t like alcohol.”

“I don’t like it, but I don’t hate it either! Above all, fruit wine made from the fruits of trees around the world is different!”

“You’re right! Where should I go and try something like this? Please open it quickly!”

It is said that the fruit of the World Tree only grows once every 100 years, so if you miss this opportunity, you might not be able to eat it until 100 years later.

When I repeatedly urged her, Roxana shook her head as if she couldn’t resist and opened the fruit wine.

Pow!

When I opened the cork, the fruity scent trapped inside released all at once.

“Oh…”

It was an indescribable smell.

A scent that is refreshing and sweet, refreshing and profound at the same time, as if all the scents of the world have been condensed.

Everyone, including me, was intoxicated by the scent and remained silent for a moment, focusing all our attention on the sense of smell.

Roxana was the first to come to her senses.

“It smells really good. “I wonder what it tastes like?”

“Master, have you never tried it?”

“Huh. I drank a lot when I was young and haven’t drank much since then. “When I was in my prime, I didn’t have a lot of money to eat things like this.”

Roxana’s face was bitter as she talked about her past.

She felt strange, as if she were a researcher talking about her own graduate school days.

Soon, Roxana offered fruit wine.

“Stop talking nonsense and let’s start with the taste. Now, take it.”

“Yes. Thank you.”

Roxana poured her drink for me and Deborah, then filled her own glass and held it high.

“I don’t really want to say anything at length. Let’s get along well in the future. “Understand, right?”

“Yes!”

“Of course!”

“Good. Cheers!”

Cheaeng!

After clinking our glasses with Roxana’s toast, we immediately poured down our drinks.

The moment the turquoise liquid touched her tongue, a new world unfolded. A truly indescribable explosion of aromas and flavors.

As she savors it, it naturally flows down her throat, and the taste and scent disappear as if they had never happened before.

It was a bit disappointing, but that’s why it leaves a lasting impression and I never get tired of it.

I suddenly opened my closed eyes.

The other two seemed to be like me, just opening their eyes with a dazed look.

“It’s really delicious?”

“I know. “If I had known this would happen, I would have eaten it sooner.”

“I think I’ll become addicted to alcohol if I keep going like this!”

Deborah quickly filled the empty glass as if it really suited her taste.

She urged us.

“Cheers everyone! Come on!”

“Okay. Calm down.”

“Deborah. Be careful. Because fruit wine made from the fruit of the World Tree cannot be detoxified by magic. And then you collapse right away?”

“Oh, really? But first, let’s toast!”

Despite Roxana’s warnings, Deborah’s determination to drink did not wane.

So we started enjoying fruit wine, giving and receiving.

*

In a quiet room, Roksana, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly felt thirsty and opened her eyes.

“Ah… Is it still dawn?”

It was still dark outside the window.

She stood up, brushed her hair, put on a thin silk top, and left her room.

“Is everyone already asleep?”

I fell in love with the fruit wine and started drinking it, so I got drunk so I could make time for the two of us, but looking at how quiet we were, it looks like the drinking party was already ruined.

Are these two still together?

Roxana secretly gazed towards Deborah’s room, her curiosity surging.

If I opened the door, I could take a peek inside without anyone noticing, but I didn’t really want to see it, both on conscience and above all personally.

The sight of a disciple panting in a man’s arms is such a sight to see.

‘I’m an adult anyway. ‘I’ll take care of it.’

Roxana resolutely cut off her curiosity and made her way into the living room.

Finally, she arrived at the living room and discovered an unexpected sight.

“Ha… I’m going crazy.”

Deborah and Luan were spread out against a backdrop of scattered liquor bottles and empty plates.

It was nice to see the two of them clinging to each other as it seemed to show their mutual affection, but it was a pain in the ass to deal with.

Roxana barely resisted the urge to smash her back and walked over the two towards the water purifier.

Gulp! Gulp!

“Puh-ha!”

After giving her a shot of water, she sighed lightly and turned her back, feeling refreshed.

A chaotic scene comes into view.

With each bottle of alcohol lying on the floor, it feels like a stone is filling up in my heart. If it weren’t for magic, I wouldn’t even dare to clean it up.

Roxana immediately activated the cleansing spell and deleted her empty bottle.

“… Let’s organize the rest tomorrow. “First, I need to put just two people in the room.”

After making a cool decision, she immediately took Deborah to her room.

When I lay him down on the bed, he talks in his sleep.

“Ugh… Luan. I love you. Hmmmm…”

In the dream, he sticks his lips out as if he wants to kiss me, but it’s really like I can’t see him.

I couldn’t help but sigh.

“Ugh… I really can’t survive. “I wasn’t this kind of kid to begin with, but one guy threw me all away?”

Roxana left her room, not even realizing that she was talking like an overzealous parent protecting her child.

Then, he helps Luan and takes her to the guest room.

And it was just as I arrived in front of the bed and was about to lay him down.

“Don’t go.”

“Oh!?”

Luan suddenly opened his eyes, pulled her wrist, laid Roxana down on the bed, and climbed on top of her.

Each other’s breaths mingle at a short distance.

“You, what is this… ” .”

When she was embarrassed and couldn’t even think of letting go of her, Lu An let out a shocking statement.

“I love you.”

“What is that… Hah!?”

At the same time, Luan attacked Roxana’s lips.
