49 – Daisy’s Delusion

“Did I do a good job…?”

Raise your hand and touch the ball. Along with the soft texture, I can feel the warm heat that hasn’t subsided since a while ago.

I turn my head and look at the full-length mirror next to the bed. My face, sticking out from the blanket, is still red.

Why? My heart is pounding so hard and it shows no sign of calming down.

“It’s a contract…”

A while ago, Camel summoned the contract scale and made a contract with me.

-“Choose me.”

Carmel made a suggestion to me.

Choose yourself, not Fran.

Obviously, it was an offer she wouldn’t have even considered.

I accepted the offer and swore to Libra.

I will choose and serve Kamel, not Fran, as my hero.

It had to be that way. Because what Carmel promised me on her scale was something I simply could not refuse.

-「What you want to raise.」

-“We want to cancel Byron’s contract within a year and give freedom to the contractee, Daisy.”

-「The price is.」

-“Death”

Camel, her man swore on her scales. I will break the contract tied to the Bluemont family.

Is that all? He casually staked his life on his scales.

‘Why…?’

I don’t understand. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t know why he risked his life so easily for me.

Is my fate pitiful and pitiful?

Because you don’t want to lose to Fran, a fellow hero?

Or…

“Because you’re in love with me?”

As I look at my pretty face in the mirror, I think that could be possible.

“If that’s the case…”

Carmel, he really wanted to lust after my body.

“Huh, huh. Oh, no!”

I had to pull the blanket up to my head and scream.

Because it was imagined. The things that Camel will do to me after she gets rid of the contract tied to our family, as she promised to Libra.

“Carmel, if it’s him…”

He will come to me with a cold expression and demand payment, just like when he beheaded a member of the Chaos Church.

I won’t be able to answer anything as I look at that face, which is more handsome than I expected.

He would look at me cynically and tear my clothes. Then he would smack his lips against mine, and then he would roughly touch my breasts with his rough hands…

“Oh, no!”

After shaking my head and shaking off the ridiculous delusion, I had to feel guilty.

Carmel, isn’t he a grateful person who risked his life to destroy my destiny?

If that promise is kept, I will be able to escape this damn fate and start my own life.

Pathetic. I can’t believe you’re having such dark delusions against such a grateful person.

“I have to be helpful to Camel.”

Once you shake off the delusion, you begin to make up your mind.

I still hate the porter’s fate. However, there was someone who promised to break that fate.

Of course, there is no guarantee that he will succeed.

But he was willing to risk his life for me, and I chose him as my warrior.

Therefore, I, Daisy, must become his porter until fate breaks.

As I said, I hate the fate of porters. But I hate being a person who only receives help and is of no help.

Just as he stepped forward without hesitation, I should also be of help to him.

I will be his strong ally with the sword skills and subspace magic I have honed over the years.

If he lacks anything, I will make up for it.

If there is a burden that he finds difficult to carry, he will put it in my space.

“As expected, you were good at talking to me.”

The fear that had filled my mind just moments ago mysteriously disappeared, and only courage and motivation emerged.

No matter what he asks of me, I am willing to give him everything…

“Wait a minute.”

It was in the meantime. Suddenly, a word that Camel could have uttered flashed through my mind, and at the same time, my thoughts stopped.

“What if I put something other than luggage in it…”

My hair turned pure white.

Jane was bowing her head in front of the black communication device in front of her.

“The company’s movements are unusual. For the time being…”

-“···Okay. By the way.”

Jane reported that she was not allowed to touch Sage for the time being, and she felt cold sweat forming on her forehead as she concentrated on the sound of her man’s voice.

-“He wants the identity of the man wearing the mask. So you may help His toy achieve its purpose.”

The man’s voice continued.

Jane thought as she listened to this.

Carmel, I have to tell that kid quickly.

*****

Today, a week has passed since we signed a contract with Daisy and Jane.

The atmosphere at Arden Academy was more lively than ever.

Because today was the day when recruitment of members for the club called the flower of the academy began.

“Hey, black-haired junior! “How about our art department, which sometimes draws nudes?”

“Handsome junior over there, how about a cup of tea at our tea department?”

“Oh, they are both images of perfect actors. Join our theater department, and we promise you a special lead role. Then, legally, you should hit your lips…”

Club booths lined up on every street you walk,

Seniors desperately trying to attract quality new members,

Even the freshmen who were deceived by the coaxing rumors and signed the paper.

Looking at that lively scenery, even I felt excited for no reason.

“Camel. Should we join the theater club? Ooh~”

As she was doing so, Rose, who was heading to the classroom with her, pushed her face and asked, pursed her dainty lips.

When I saw that, I had a strong urge to pinch Rose’s red lips, which were pursed like a poop.

I was curious. I wonder how violently Rose will react if I pinch her lips hard. She honestly looks like fun.

“Is that so?”

Thinking that if I did that, her back might explode, I quickly suppressed the urge and asked back.

I was already thinking of joining the theater department.

Of course, it wasn’t because I wanted to lock lips with Rose. I’m just trying to join the theater club because there are a lot of episodes related to it.

“Yes, you can’t give it to me… What?”

“Let’s go into the theater department. “Do you think it would be fun?”

“Huh, huh!”

Then, Rose mumbled something, was startled by my words, covered her face with both hands, and lowered her head.

‘My face is going to explode’

Is he even imagining standing on stage and putting his lips on mine?

I laughed out loud as I looked at Rose’s cheeks, which were as bright red as her name.

On the other hand, she felt sorry for Rose.

Because, the reason I wanted to join the theater club was to prevent unpleasant incidents from happening, and not to feel pressured to take on the lead role and stand on stage.

“Hey, over there…”

As I was doing that, I heard a crawling voice in my ear.

“Uh, Keto Top.”

“It’s Ketil.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

When I turned my head, I saw Ketil standing there awkwardly.

“But what happened?”

I was puzzled. Was there something that made him want to talk to me?

“Carmel, have you decided which club you want to join?”

“Why?”

In response to Ketil’s question, I reflexively opened my eyes, clenched my fist and asked back.

I was nervous. I wonder if this friend has tastes that are outside of the normal range.

From noble mtl dot com

“Well, it’s because there’s a kid who’s curious. Ah! “By the way, it’s a woman.”

“Oh, really?”

Has he noticed my momentum?

Or is he just quick-witted?

Ketil, who was looking at my fist, quickly came up with a reasonable reason and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

And then I realized that the only woman near Ketil was a woman.

Anyway, who is curious about my club?

‘Linda? Pia? ‘Joa?’

There is no way Seiji is still emotionally awkward, so it must be one of the three.

I don’t know. Why are they curious about which club I will join?

“I haven’t decided yet.”

I answered like that. Because all three were far from my taste.

I was just about to pass by and start walking again.

“Who is it?”

“Huh?”

“Who is curious?”

Rose, who is closer to my taste, started to criticize Ketil with a sharp voice.

“Rain, it’s a secret.”

“Well, let me ask you just one question. “Is she pretty?”

“Uh… In my eyes?”

“More than me?”

“I’m sorry, I have some work to do, so I’ll just stop…!”

Rose asked with her eyes wide open, and Ketil pretended to answer before she scampered away.

“Isn’t it one of the three: Linda, Pia, and Joa? “They are the only ones who are close to him.”

I knew that Rose was the type of person who could never stop being curious, so I told her the obvious truth as her eyes were still narrowed.

“Ah, what are they…”

Then Rose pondered for a moment, and soon she muttered, looking like she was a hero who had won the war and returned.

‘Anyway, where is he now?’

As I started walking again, I became lost in thought.

A few days ago, Jane gave me a piece of information according to her contract.

The academy contains toys carefully created by Greed.

A horse is a toy, and as expected from a work created by the Seven Deadly Sins of Greed, he had quite a strong magical energy.

I don’t remember his name, but I definitely remember what kind of guy he was.

This guy was a guy who ate people’s souls and stole their bodies and acted like that person.

‘Finding it was the most painful thing.’

Although he is a strong demon, the biggest reason why he was a headache was because it was difficult to find.

Because he was able to imitate not only the body but also the body’s energy by stealing it.

In other words, he was able to hide his demonic energy.

‘I’ll have to move around a lot.’

I had to do that in order to find the guy hiding the magic.

No matter how much demonic energy he has hidden, it won’t be difficult to identify him if you look at him with your celestial eye.

****

Ketil was wiping the cold sweat from his forehead and reporting to his leader who was sitting on his bench with an expressionless face.

“Seiji, he hasn’t decided yet…”

“I see.”

“Rose, I asked who she was curious about.”

“I see.”

“He asked me if I was pretty, and I said yes. And he asked if I was prettier than him, but I didn’t answer. “Honestly, you are prettier in my opinion.”

“I see.”

Ketil looked at her leader and her friends who were sitting huddled next to him and reading books together.

The friends’ resentful eyes seemed to be saying this to Ketil.

Why can’t we figure that out, so why do we have to keep an eye on the leader?

Looking at that, Ketil felt that everything was unfair.

Why was he born as a man?

Carmel Why hasn’t that friend decided on a club yet?

No, why is it my fault?

Tears were about to fill Ketil’s eyes.

“Ketil.”

“Uh, yes!”

“Please ask next time.”

“Ah, I understand!”

“Please do me a favor.”

The leader gave Ketil another chance with her cold voice and indifferent expression.
