Duke, Please Repent! chapter 187

38. Unpleasant daily life with the Duke (2)

"Before we get to the point, let me point out a few things."

As soon as the words of forgiveness came out of my mouth, the guy I had a crush on made a serious expression and said with a face that I would listen.

First of all, whenever I'm angry with Serpens, I tend to be scared, don't you? I'm afraid I'll blame you or leave you fed up.

okay? It won't happen, so don't worry.

" Really?"

of course!

Serpens are vigilant. But he looked like he was sulking.

With the fresh fruit in front of you, he said, 'I'm sure the fruit will be sweet. But, is there really no poison?'

It was as if he was waiting for himself to be vigilant and doubting that he was laying a foothold to escape in the midst of it.

But the guy overcame that fear,

Yes, I believe.

believed me

And you don't have to beg like, 'Please. Just a sincere apology is enough,' he said.

Is that enough?

Why, did you know that the sound of a cat is essential? The last time I was meowing, it wasn't that Serpens was wrong, it was wrong, but it was because I was sad rather than angry, so we shook each other lightly.

It meant moving on.

"It's not that Really, that you forgive with just an apology? That's right?"

Serpens made the face of a man whose foundations of common sense had been overturned.

It's like a person who put a handful of cacao nibs in his mouth when he said that he was the raw material for chocolate.

He couldn't swallow or spit what he put in his mouth, and he stuttered.

From that look, I could see how difficult it was to be forgiven in his world.

How many times have you been begging and begging? How many times have you prayed and prayed?

Really, that's it. Really. To add, it's like a promise not to do that in the future.

" but it may take some time to fix it."

It's okay. How can a person change overnight? Don't be disappointed, don't get impatient. I'll wait until then, so don't worry.

It was then that he let out the bitter breath that had filled his mouth and took in a deep breath.

"By the way, did the meow have no effect?"

It had the effect of losing my absurdity. It was amazing.

Even now, the absurdity is evaporating in real time.

Why is he taking this question so seriously?

Whether I call a serpent meow or sernan. Even if it's a combination of a Persian cat and a sercian cat, I don't see a serpen as a pet, right?

Wasn't it?!

Why are you surprised, why?!

The guy flinched and withdrew, then suddenly opened his shoulders proudly. It must have been the result of taking my advice not to be scared in one dimension.

It's just that in our world, grandmothers look at their grandchildren and call them 'our motherfucker', and that's the same context.

Ummm... Then what about 'Masaegaesae'?

Am I using the wrong example, is this child simply not understanding, or is it a difference in worldview?

Why is the cockroach coming out here?!

Dogs and puppies are different! It means that puppies and puppies are insults, and puppies and dogs are cute! Do you understand?

Perhaps?

I was worried about whether I really understood it, but the way he shakes his head seems to have interpreted it well and accepted it according to his circumstances.

And lastly .

Are there any more left?

"Somehow the desk didn't get too close?

Do you remember when this happened? A while back, Serpence was walking around here and getting macarons. But now you think you can dance between the desk and the bookshelf?"

The seats were too far away, so it was difficult to have a conversation, so I moved them little by little.

There was a sense of pride in his voice as he spoke.

'Little by little, since when and how much?'

I, too, have only barely woken up to this day. It is said that it took a very long time to move it.

What the hell is the peacock doing?!

"Rearrangement of furniture?"

The door was blocked at the reaction that was so natural.

If you're so confident, don't move it like this, move it in a day, didn't you?

But what would the landlord say when he said he would move the furniture in his house?

It is true that it has made conversation easier thanks to it.

Okay, admit it! Now, let's talk about the letter.

Serpens wrote a letter to Humanus!

At least it's a business story, but where is that?

How happy would Humanus be when he received an unexpected reply from his friend during the arduous journey?

I asked you to explain the brainwashing magic that the demon worshipers had developed, and to tell them to train their divine powers toward the spiritual realm.

It was advice that turned into blood and flesh.

If we prepare early from now on, [the kind of tragedy that happened with the master of the holy sword could be avoided.

"And?"

The second ordeal is right in front of you...

Yes?!

"Time is running out, so there's no need to go back."

That's right, but is it really okay?

They are advocating their own trials of wisdom, but if they do, will they be rewarded properly?

got confused

Anyway, the second ordeal is only to defeat the golem in the place of trial.

That's what you can do.

"As a result, it is, but "

Now, to retrieve the letter, I can't even run to the furnace of eons where the Dwarf apostles are gathered.

It's already spilled water. Let's think good.

It was planned for Humanus and his party to solve all the clues and arrive at the place of trial.

' Yes. If you play the second game, you can add a skip function to that kind of hard work!'

The strategy is exactly the same, and you have to solve the time-consuming puzzle again? Not even an intermediate reward?

If you make a game that way these days, it's perfectly fine to be insulted.

It was a user patch to develop in a better direction, so Luxmea will admit it and pretend not to know.

Apologize to the Dwarf Apostles, who must have been excitedly looking forward to hiding the clues!

That made me sorry.

An apple that will never reach you.

Serpence was less than half sincere of what he was doing, and threw out an apology in the air.

"And?"

And?

"Is that the end of the letter?"

"Other than that in terms of distance, we'll be going back, but to the last destination, Arche Kingdom, is it about saying that it would be better to go through the Empire rather than the Palo Kingdom?"

I expected it, but it wasn't really bland, so it was stuffy and dry.

At least in the form of a look, what has happened to you and what has happened around you.

If I was going to write it, there would have been a lot of miscellaneous things to write about, but it was really a model of 'just a simple thing.'

After reading all the letters, it is clear without looking at the figure of Humanus, who is robbing the envelope to see if there is a next page.

I can't help what I've already sent... Give it to me.

what?

Letters from His Majesty to Serpens

yo. This.

Unlike Serpens, Humanus would have written down the things that happened to him.

If you read it, you will get a rough idea of how the schedule went wrong.

It is difficult.

I'm sure you threw it away?!

The documents sent by the imperial family were burned in an incinerator because it would be a problem if they were thrown away.

It's not a document, and it hurts more to burn it than to throw it away.

If you look closely, this guy is in Humanus

It seems that crabs are being ruthlessly grilled.

Even if we don't admit it, is this because we're childhood friends?

"From now on, when a letter comes in, I will make sure to show it to Seon-woo and make sure he is inspected before sending it."

Don't say that you get your parents' autograph and submit it to your home correspondence.

if so .

But please show me the letter.

He nodded, indicating that he knew.

Isn't there anything Serpent is talking about? The reason for the twist.

It must have been too late to treat that druid mercenary... It seems that we wasted a lot of time also saving a ship heading to Smern.

Smern.

It is a country where Merrows, who can be called half-human and iron-fish, live, and is the only island country on the continent.

They said that calling their country, an island nation, was just a standard for land people, and called their country a 'ocean nation'.

'That's not true.'

An island that is exposed all the way to the sea

is just a place to welcome people from the land.

In fact, their country was beneath it, in the deep sea.

"But why the boat?"

It is said that all the ships that were moored in the port city where they arrived to board the ship exploded the day before.

It must be a monkey thing.

I will.

It's simple yet effective.

"Isn't there a ship that goes out and comes back?"

It sank right before my eyes.

Leaving some hope behind and popping it out in front of you was just the devil's thing to do.

"It is said that after traveling around the port city like that, an angry wizard colleague in the end moved a boat floating in a nearby lake by magic, floated it in the sea, and moved the boat by magic to cross it."

Is that possible? Of course it's possible to move a ship, but it's a sea route...

It was said that a mage colleague brought a sailor and solved it.

Did you bring it, or did you bring it? Did the boat on the lake have the owner's permission? Before that, are we talking about this on our side right now?

Although the anima often had a blast, this was a little . it's hot

The ship crashed as soon as it reached the island, and when it returned it was written that it borrowed Merrow's power.

Humanus who wrote down all these details, or Serpens who read and remembered them all... .

After all, why are you still not friends?

There is something special about the bandits, too. Seonwoo said it was a small village or a group of looting municipal gangs, but according to the information that came in, it was much larger than that and it seemed to have its own system.

This too must have been supported by the demons behind the scenes.

More than I thought. And nothing compared to what I read in [Master of the Holy Sword].

Humanus was rolling hard in places we couldn't see.

"Aside from that, there are disturbances or commotions in every way along the way.

It seems that he has personally encountered a warlock."

These guys were completely risking their lives.

Originally, at this time, I knew I shouldn't bump into each other from the front, so I only flirted with each other... .

It felt a bit like saying, 'Can your subject pass the ordeal?' Whether Humanus is ordeal or not, we felt we were doing our job.

But now something was different.

As if this was really his last chance, he was sabotaging with all his heart and soul.

Serpens.

Tell me.

Raise your hand and place it on your head.

You can only raise one hand. Serpens, a good-natured child, put both hands on his head and tilted his head.

It reminded me of the yellow duck character from a certain cartoon I saw as a child.

Now, move your hand in the direction of your hair and say, 'You did great!

What does this act mean?

The lines were not uttered, but Serpens said, stroking his head as instructed.

Whether it's giving Liena advice on divine power, or telling her to change her stopover to an empire instead of a palo kingdom. Writing a letter and delivering it means that you did a great job!

Are you making me praise you now?

Serpens lowered his hand with a look as if he was looking at a pathetic adult who didn't do his own thing.

The inner intention wasn't like that... !
