Chapter 106 – Sister Time -1-

Pududeuk-

The sound of grinding teeth echoed through the room.

“Emotions aren’t efficient, so if you pretend to be alone and pretend to be crazy about women—”

If I didn’t curse at myself, it would be difficult to withstand the heat that built up in my head.

Robert finished his first semester, his body rested, but his head did not have a rest.

His mind was full of thoughts about the possible dimension to return to, escaping from this harsh and heartless world, and he waited only for the start of the second semester.

According to Isaac, it would be successful by now, so as soon as the second semester started, he ran to the dormitory of another undergraduate school to find Isaac.

But Isaac didn’t reveal everything to himself right away.

As much as he invested his ability and time in Robert, he wanted the primary investment in his love business.

He tried to say that he would help with the dimensional experiment, but Isaac’s attitude was the same.

After all, a thirsty guy digs a well. Both of them have burning throats and are in a hurry, but their thirst is much worse, and it is they who are in a hurry.

It must have happened because he talked about using people to save him from danger by shaking legs to win a woman’s heart, but Robert is very frustrated right now.

‘Actor? A guy who has skills but can be used and discarded…’

You have to choose between finding a chess piece yourself or giving Isaac a lot of money, who is frantically putting gold coins into his research to the extent that he has no money to spend outside.

After much thought, Robert chose the latter to avoid being directly involved in pointless matters.

As the eldest son of a famous marquess family, Bolt, he decided to support Isaac with an amount he had never spent on extravagance or equipment.

Even if the kettle boils in my head, I decided to act quickly because I made up my mind.

It’s an act of putting restraints on each other’s body, but it doesn’t matter. The lines crossed each other and rode in the same boat.

‘I should think of it as a reward for dimensional research… All of the property here is useless after all.’

It is enough to return to Korea with this body intact. Even if that was a simple and hopeful observation, it was the pillar of the spirit that he was currently holding on to.

When I heard the example, it was said that there is a high probability that Isaac’s body will remain the same.

‘This is the first time I’ve seen so many gold coins in real life…’

Yes. It feels like a waste…Even if it’s a lot of money, it’s right to give money and continue the research as soon as possible.

I’d like to come forward and mobilize my connections with the cadets to help.

Isaac didn’t tell himself who he was doing this attempt to hire a throwaway performer for. That was the biggest problem.

What if that crazy, crazy wizard is messing with the daughter of a really good family? If you don’t get caught, it’s a good thing, but in that way, even if your liver is big, you’re too big.

I will carefully select and gather people who can cut off their tails even if something happens to me.

‘This is enough.’

Until now, we have supported research funding, but we are aware that we have to pay a reasonable price if there are results.

However, the attitude of trying to shake yourself with the results like now is just annoying.

Rustle- rustle-

“Whoa…”

Even as he grinds his teeth, he recalculates and puts the wealth accumulated in his pockets. If others see it, it doesn’t matter if it’s a friend’s research grant, but it would be better if fewer people saw or knew about it.

Not just gold coins, but items that could easily be turned into goods when needed, such as jewels, Robert finished preparing for the amount Isaac said.

*****

“Um…! That was definitely for the best!”

It was the result of a serious and careful selection of the only dessert that could be said to be confident and well-informed.

There was nothing on the menu that would suit her taste better than pecan pie.

A famous shop that everyone knows among those who have tried some powdered sugar. As it is a menu of such a place, the taste can be said to be one of the best in the capital.

I prefer desserts that are so sweet that my tongue melts, and I don’t really like nuts.

I wanted to see her sister’s reaction, so after the academy was over, I arrived at the dessert shop again as quickly as possible.

With my daughter-

As the eyes of the employees gathered together with the elegant sound of a bell announcing the opening of the door, Chloe stopped breathing for a moment.

“Welcome. Oh! Can you wait a moment, sir?”

The employee who opened the door and saw his face without saying anything came out with two wrapped boxes, as if he remembered.

“Uh… Pecan pie ha, isn’t it one?”

The waitress picked up the boxes one by one with a friendly sales smile and recite the product name.

“One is pecan pie. One is strawberry ganache cake. The ganache cake topped with strawberries grown at our company is a popular product that only accepts pre-orders… After hearing that it was not included in the dessert course you ordered, you ordered it separately.”

On top of the box I received in bewilderment along with a greeting from an employee saying thank you for the purchase, there was also a memo written by the instructor himself.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I saw it, I was like, ‘Huh?’ The handwriting made a sound, but it was not impossible to read.

[Do not eat instead of a meal. Both are at risk of getting scolded. ]

‘Wow, definitely…!’

When I go back to the mansion, I want to take it out and eat it right away, but if I neglect or skip dinner because of the cake, my sister might worry.

In the memo left by the instructor, I could feel humanity very strongly.

‘Next time, I might be able to say thanks a little more comfortably…’

I know it’s rude in the phrase “I’m scolded” But… I also thought it was a little cute that didn’t match the muscles and bloody atmosphere.

Starting with her title, she worried about whether she should return as much as she received, and headed to the mansion with the idea of ​​talking to her sister.

ㅡ

Secretly asking the servants to keep the cake, she waited by the window for her sister to return.

Today, as I was stepping round and round, wondering what to do if it ends late or doesn’t come back, I began to see silver hair that caught my eye from afar.

With a solemn expression blowing in the cold wind, I saw her sister who had arrived at her mansion with a certain stride, and slurped down her stairs.

His movements were much faster than those of the servants, as if it was worth waiting for.

“Sister! You worked hard!”

The hard and solemn expression in her own voice melts as if spring has arrived in the snowy mountains, giving a soft smile.

It seemed that the servants of the mansion had now adapted to the atmosphere and situation that had changed since one day.

“Yes. Thank you for coming.”

*****

‘Did anything good happen at the academy?’

I felt that Chloe’s expression wasn’t at the level of coyness, but that she was excited as if she were about to fly away.

When he asked if he could go to the study after dinner, he thought there must be something, but if it was something in his expression, he had no reason to be anxious.

There must have been good things or fun things with friends. Hearing Chloe’s chatter is a pleasure to himself.

Recently, the concentration of work has increased dramatically, and there are no documents that are busy enough to be handled at home.

Knock, Knock, Knock

-This is Chloe Dritna!

The corner of Eclair’s mouth went up at the voice of his younger brother who couldn’t hide his excitement.

“Come in.”

Kiik-

The door opened and there was a servant holding a tray behind him.

Since the library is an area where employees are absolutely prohibited from entering without permission, Chloe personally took the plate from the tray and went back and forth twice.

In front of her is a carefully cut piece of pecan pie. On Chloe’s plate was a cake whose sweetness made her tongue go numb just by looking at it.

Her strawberries were sprinkled with white powder, and she felt like she could eat that piece for a week.

I stood up and thanked Chloe for separating the menu for me.

“It’s an after-meal dessert… I guess I’ll have to prepare some tea.”

“Ah! Shall I worry?”

“It’s okay. Sit down.”

He sat down Chloe, who was about to get up after her, and boiled water using a magic tool in the corner of the study.

“You can listen first.”

Éclair, on the other hand, questioned and recommended to her younger brother, who was looking at him with a smile even while brewing tea.

At his own invitation, Chloe, who usually raised her fork while paying attention, shook her head for some reason.

“I’ll wait. I want to hear her first impressions first.”

Dalgrak-

Éclair sat down, placing the teacup in front of Chloe, and gave her own answer.

“Is this pie from a very famous shop?”

“Um~ That’s also the case… There’s something special in it, so it’ll suit your taste.”

Unlike Chloe, who is interested in desserts, he is ignorant, so he decides to eat and judge for now.

‘A special ingredient? Is it a product released with a new taste that is different from its appearance?’

With her eyes wide open, she raised her fork to respond to Chloe, who was waiting for her to speak first.

Without needing a knife, Éclair neatly cut the pie with just a fork and popped a piece into her mouth.

I liked that it was not sweet. The taste of the nuts is savory and the texture is great. Needless to say, it was the best pie I had ever eaten.

“What do you think?”

“It’s like a dessert made to suit my taste.”

With a sigh of relief, Chloe, with a slight blush on his face, started asking questions again as if urging him.

“I’m really glad~ Wasn’t it too sweet?”

“To say it’s sweet in the first place… Huh?”

The note that Chloe handed over rustled before she could even finish her words. The bad handwriting written there was a handwriting he was familiar with.

[Do not eat instead of a meal. Both are at risk of getting scolded. ]

“Sister~ I’m behind you too.”

Turning over her memo, there was a note written as neatly as possible, as if it were written for herself.

[ I want to see. ]

Wow Chloe! She did, and she let out a girlish gasp, drawing a curtain over her face with her gray hair.

Chloe, who was watching from the side of her, not at the party, was also tickled by this emotion, and her face burned.

I never thought I’d actually see a romance like this in an extremely dry empire… Not a novel or a play.

“…”

Éclair, who immediately understood the situation, began to blush as if it was contagious to Chloe.
