Chapter 27 – 27. Coquetry

Upper kingdom.
The chancellor, who received a report on the damage caused by the witch, said with a frown.

“Really, these cockroaches don’t even go away.”
“I mean.”

The Army Secretary replied. Since the army was powerless against most witches, the army minister threw down the papers sent by the church and made his flagship.

“These goddamn religious people are doing this nonsense again.”

Due to the nature of witches, who were not affected by the power of the military, the existence of a paladin who could kill witches became more important than anything else.

Thanks to this, the kingdom had an almost imperial system, and most of the nobles did not like it.

‘Parasites that live and feed on fear…….’

At least, the reason why the church did not swallow this country was simple. The army alone couldn’t catch witches, but it was because they were able to catch monsters.

While most witches do not do as much damage as expected, most monsters do great damage to mankind, and their corpses are even useful.

Although the church was indispensable, the fact that they alone could not solve everything kept nobles and bureaucrats alive.

“So, what is the whole story of that bizarre murder case?”

“The church kids didn’t cooperate. Like always, I’ll take care of it myself, so just wait…….”

“Are you saying we’ve been sucking our fingers and reporting to the people or to His Majesty?”

“We will increase the number of soldiers and knights patrolling the back alleys. And, it’s not that there is no harvest at all.”

“Is there something?”

“Investigators found the adventurers who were said to have come out of that back alley. According to them, there’s a dark-haired man and a blonde-haired paladin in that back alley…….”

“Hati, that way!”
“Bruise!”

At my words, a wolf rushes at the monster. The monster that was guarding me lost its balance and collapsed, so I jumped at the fallen monster and stabbed it with my sword.

Pooh-! I thrust my sword straight into the scruff of the monster struggling here and there. This sword made by the Master is very sharp, no matter what it is made of.

It was to the extent that the skin of a monster that could only be penetrated by sawing with a normal sword was cut through without incident. After cutting off the monster’s neck without any effort, I took out a book and held it to the monster’s face.

“Well… Cokejablin? Only skins are sold, and meat is useless.”

Enchanted books automatically find records of monsters. It was like a Pokemon encyclopedia.

After confirming the name of the monster and the value of the by-product, I peeled off the skin with a slaughter knife and looked at Hati, who was waiting for a reward after catching the monster.

“Eat.”
“King-!”

Waiting for my order, Hati immediately buried her head in the corpse of the monster and began to eat the corpse. A monster the size of a small child disappears in an instant without even picking a bone.

Watching her devour dozens of kilograms of meat in an instant, I thought it was indeed Fenrir’s daughter.

‘I would have thought that she was Fenrir’s daughter…….’

I see the tail wagging from side to side. It was a very familiar movement. A wolf that attacked me every day after I was kidnapped by Master.

It didn’t attack me, but I thought it was strange that it was strangely friendly and understood everything, but it would be the case with a daughter of a spirit creature. Because it wasn’t strange no matter when he said it out of the blue.

“Hati, let’s go when you’ve finished eating.”
Hehe-.”
“Is it that good?”

After lightly stroking her hair, she climbed onto Hati’s back. Hati, who was the size of a normal large dog, has grown to a size that even a human can lightly carry.

It was also the reason why I didn’t recognize Hati at all and was a little scared when I first saw it. Fortunately, I recognized that it was Hati, not a monster, and became friends again.

“Let’s go to the next monster.”
“Bruise-!”

Hati, who understood what I was saying, ran through the forest in an instant. Hati, who found the next monster with the quick movements typical of the forest wolf, stopped for a moment and put me down and waited for my command.

I looked at the monster and started to judge whether it was something the two of us could catch. It was a monster that could be caught. So I immediately ordered Hati.

“—Ask.”
“Bruise-!”

I ran out with Hati and decapitated the monster. The by-products of the monsters he collected were stored separately in a warehouse. It was because I couldn’t rely only on Master forever.

‘There are a lot of stores that I overlooked before, but next time…….’

The time has come to buy at least one gift suitable for Master. Thinking so, I spurred on the monster hunting.

Square square-. The sound of something being scribbled with a pencil resonates throughout the room. After scribbling something for a while, the woman handed the booklet she had made to the woman in front of her.

Upon receiving the book, Evangeline immediately expressed her gratitude.

“Thank you, I will read it carefully.”

Square square-. No answer came back. Evangeline wasn’t expecting an answer either. It was more realistic to ask the machine for an answer.

After receiving the book, Evangeline turned her back and looked at the newly updated witch list. For her, who had been reclusive in the woods for decades, these books were her only window into what was going on in the outside world.

‘Hecaterina, Hecaterina…… There is none.’

Evangeline started looking up the name Hecaterina on the list. I thought it would have stood out as a witch imitating a paladin, but if it wasn’t listed here, it meant that she was a young witch less than a hundred years old.

Of course, there is a possibility that the name was faked——but Evangeline didn’t think so. For a witch, a name was a kind of concept that symbolized her ego and identity.

It wasn’t that easy to change. Evangeline has lived for hundreds of years, but as if she was Evangeline when she was born and now.

‘Are kids these days different? … Hey, if you were born in a city, it wouldn’t be strange if you changed your name, but…….’

But even that I couldn’t be sure. Unlike the old days when it was worth living, these days, the witch hunt of the Paladins was getting worse.

Witches born near urban centers could change their names and live on. If you continue to use one name, you will eventually be caught by the Paladins.

‘Well, since he said he died—isn’t it something I should be concerned about?’

I checked to see if the immortal witch had even been reborn. Fortunately, the existence of witches using such magic was not recorded in the witch list.

After she died hundreds of years ago, she was never reborn. If it was an unusual witch like the immortal witch, no matter how new she was, it would have been written on it.

After finishing her work, Evangeline returned and spoke to Margaret, who was waiting by the entrance.

“Let’s go back.”
[Enough to see?]
“Okay. If you need anything, why don’t you get it now?”
[Nothing. He doesn’t even like me very much]
“Regina? Could it be?”

Due to the nature of that witch who treats everyone equally as a documentary, there is no such thing as discriminating against someone. As far as Evangeline knew, it was.

But Margaret smiled bitterly and spoke out about why she hated her.

[I don’t leave a trace]
“Ah…”

Evangeline, who finally understood, nodded and asked her in reverse.

“Then, can you accept the one book I want instead of the four of you?”

[What?]

“Rice, it’s nothing…… A little bit of a book called ’48 sex life for witches’…….”

[Okay]

Hearing Evangeline’s request, Margaret put on an absurd expression, but since she was invisible, her expression was not noticed.

Margaret, who had received a book with a clear intention of where to use it, handed the book to Evangeline, recalling who the contents would be used for.

‘…… John.’

Watching him flirt with Evangeline these days, I felt like my stomach was full. It was all the more so in that John pretended to be invisible because of his teacher in a subject he could see.

Even if you see yourself, you don’t look at yourself. That fact makes me grumpy. Margaret, remembering how to make Johann and Evangeline’s relationship sour, smiled as if she had a good idea.

I was looking forward to meeting John.

From the outside, the cabin is so small that it would be inconvenient for the two of them to live together. But once you step inside, the story changes.

No matter what kind of magic they used, there were many special spaces that did not exist outside because it was not enough to look much bigger than it looked on the outside.

Even the alone time that I couldn’t have when I just entered the cabin and didn’t know anything properly, I was able to have as much as I didn’t know about the cabin now.

‘…… It’s a pity to do something like that, but I can’t.’

Remember your relationship with your teacher. She will pamper me whenever I wish. Even if it is sexual.

So, when it’s time for me to spend time alone, I think it’s a waste and I go to see Master. Of course, after finding Master, I remember the relationship I had with her, and I was terrified…….

When you are afflicted with fear, your sexual desire will quickly subside. As time passes, it fills up again, but it is not very easy to get the timing right.

‘It seems Master wants to do it too…….’

The other side was a virgin of hundreds of years, and the other side was a shy virgin. There is no way that a virgin and a virgin who have never learned how to treat the opposite sex meet and have a proper exchange.

Rather, it was close to a miracle that it happened even once.

‘Let’s think about it later. Later…….’

After grabbing seasonings from the warehouse, I returned to the living room and prepared dinner. Sprinkle seasoning on the monster meat you caught yourself, and start cooking as written in the cookbook in your master’s study.

While cooking according to a cookbook written so that even a monkey can follow it, something slightly damp touches his back.

Mulkeong- I don’t know what it is, but it’s something pleasant. I tilted my head and turned my back, and Margaret was standing right behind me.

“Whoops, disciple. Hi.”
“…… Mr. Margaret? What are you doing all of a sudden?”
“No, I’m just- I’m worried that our apprentice is cooking properly.”
“Suddenly…… ?”
“Yes. Suddenly.”

Margaret said so and leaned in. Only then did I realize what was clinging to my back her.

It was a chest. Woman’s breasts. A chest as big as Master’s. Considering that I couldn’t see the clothes when I turned around, it was probably raw breasts.

It was something I had never seen before, let alone touched, so my body trembled. He seemed to be able to smell her scent that he hadn’t been able to smell before.

“Ahh-? Disciple, did you get an erection?”
“…… I didn’t.”
“Really? Then can I have a look?”
“No, please forgive me for having an erection like a dog…….”
“Heuuuuu, can you forgive me?”

Watching her approach with a nasal murmur – I let out a weak moan. What? Man, why is he doing this?
