Yul was flustered and said things that even he couldn’t comprehend, then gave an excuse that Lucky was sleeping over the fence.

“There are more rooms besides here.”

“No, I know that there are many rooms. But that’s not the case now! Uh? We’re not even dating yet! Mikael said he likes me, but why don’t you ask me about my feelings? I…”

“You said that a gwanggong is a crazy gong.”

“Y- yeah…”

“I haven’t read that novel, but judging from the story Yuri told me, it seems that the character gwanggong isn’t really the type to be swayed by the other person’s emotions. What do you think, am I right?”

Oh… Look at this sharp, clever human… Besides, as if confirming that he was a gwanggong, his way of thinking is indeed different.

Yul unknowingly stuck out his tongue at Mikael’s shameless words.

Surprisingly, he had an accurate understanding of the characteristics of a gwanggong by combining a small amount of information. No, he even went beyond simply understanding and even using it efficiently.

“Looking at the contents of the original work, it seems like a gwanggong would make him his by all means regardless of whether the other person likes it or not. And I am that gwanggong.”

“Wah… Mikael, you really look like madman.”

There was no other way to describe him. He really was like a madman.

While Yul admired it, he slowly shifted back with his hips.

“So, Yuri. I’m going to live like a gwanggong like in the original story.”

“Hiiick. Reject, reject! Never!”

Yul was frightened and waved his hand.

The gwanggong declared that he would live like a gwanggong. If Yul left it as it is, sooner or later his ankle would fly off, and the carrot, that bastard’s carrot! Anyway, there was going to be trouble because of carrots.

“Why not?”

“What why! If Mikael becomes a gwanggong, he will break my ankle, of course I have to stop it! Would that be all? Hm? And he’ll put carrots, uh, so he’ll put carrots in, uh, uh, and just beat me! Lock up! Starve!”

As if he had already gone through something that hadn’t happened yet, Yul even convulsed. He even felt his eyes moisten as if he was about to burst into tears.

“Then Yuri, let me ask you one thing.”

“Wh- what is it?”

Unlike Yul, who screamed in fright, Mikael was relaxed. His voice as he spoke to Yuri was even languid. Although Yul felt uneasy about his attitude, he had no choice but to answer as he wanted.

And as if he had been waiting, his question continued.

“Why did I do that to Levi in ​​the original story?”

“Well…”

Isn’t it because you’re a gwanggong?

This was the first answer that came to mind, but before Yul could answer, Mikael opened his mouth once more.

“Even though Levi said he liked me, did he?”

“Ah, no…”

“Then it is simple. If you want to protect your ankle, and if you hate that carrot that much, then there’s a fixed answer for you, Yuri.”

Wow, like this crazy king of logic.

Yul was at a loss for words at his great logic, which gave no room for escape.

Come to think of it, he was right.

If Levi had accepted Mikael’s love meekly, he would have no reason to come to such a catastrophe. However, Levi eventually rejected Mikael’s love and even ran away.

So, Mikael, who already had a huge personality flaw, blackened.

But now Mikael says he likes him, not Levi. If that was the case, he would have to substitute himself for the role of Levi.

If he rejected his love, he might have to suffer the same pain that Levi suffered in the original story… Conversely, if he accepted his love, such a terrible thing would not happen.

It was unknown how happy and sweet a beautiful life will unfold, but for now, the worst will be avoided.

“Are you done thinking?”

“… Yes. It’s done.”

“Then Yuri must know the answer you have to give.”

Mikael was a highway robber without even having a knife. Yul had no choice but to give him a set answer.

“Yes. Okay. Let’s try having a relationship. Kiss, and then… Let’s do that once the heart is ready, and now why don’t we start dating from the PG level and gradually raise the level? It’s awkward to suddenly go from PG to 19+. isn’t it?”

“I’m not particularly awkward about it.”

“That’s just Mikael’s op- Mm, of course I think so too, but I think that going step by step is the beauty of dating.”

Even if they were dating, isn’t it unreasonable to jump right into the 19+? Anyway, he had to buy time.

As long as he entered the world of Beautiful Life, there was no meaning in avoiding relationships between men, and he didn’t particularly dislike it. But, he just didn’t know that he would be involved in it himself. In a sexual sense, of course.

There was no doubt that Mikael is the top, so he will be the bottom himself, but in the original work, Levi was terribly in pain every time they did it. So he couldn’t help but be afraid.

Even if it was just a last resort, he had to postpone having a liaison with him for now.

That day will come one day, though he wished it wouldn’t come, but it shouldn’t be today anyway.

And if he was lucky, he might be able to return to the world outside the book before that day comes.

“Stop thinking about running away.”

“Yes-.”

Yul’s back felt chilly because of Mikael who noticed his thoughts like a ghost. Even so, he tried to pretend that nothing was wrong and smiled.

“Great. Then we’ll do the next steps later. First of all, let’s do what we were doing first.”

“Now, wait… Mhm.”

His lips swallowed Yul’s. Previously, it was a much softer and more careful kiss, perhaps because he mistook it for a dream, but now it was an incomparably rougher and deeper kiss.

Mikael’s tongue pushed violently into Yul’s mouth. It was unstoppable, as if announcing that it was his. He grabbed and pulled it as if he was going to pull out the root of his tongue, and he rubbed the soft flesh to his heart’s content.

Without giving him a chance to breathe, Yul kissed him deeply and heartily as he led him.

***

“It was definitely a doll.”

Constantine muttered to himself as he recalled the day of the hunting competition in his head.

At first he thought Mikael was crazy. He was the only person in that area, but he had been talking to someone.

Before long, however, Constantine heard someone else’s voice. It was bizarre. To hear a voice when there was no one else.

He checked several times to see if he was mistaken, but there was only Mikael.

The only thing he could talk to was the doll in his arms. Of course, the doll shouldn’t be able to speak.

But for some reason, the doll kept getting stuck in his mind. It was because it reminded him of the pink-haired man he had seen on the day of the banquet before. Coincidentally, Mikael’s doll also had pink hair.

There was no way that a doll and a person could be the same person.

Even though Constantine thought it was nonsense, he felt uneasy and wanted to check it out at least once. Even if he just confirmed that his suspicions were wrong, it would make him feel much more comfortable.

In the end, Constantine made a decision after much thought. Once the decision was made, action was swift. He immediately took out an arrow and used his sword to chip away the painted area representing the Esirene family, then shot the arrow at Mikael.

He was not aiming precisely at Mikael, but at his doll. However, one unexpected problem arose. It was because the arrowhead was forcibly shaved to erase the color of the arrowhead. The arrow, which was lighter than its original weight, rode in the wind and headed for Mikael, not the doll.

In a short moment, all kinds of thoughts came to mind.

If things went the way they were, Mikael would be hit by the arrow. Although he felt like a thorn in his eye, he had no intention of killing him and getting blood on his hands.

The opponent was none other than the Archduke. If he hurt him even by mistake, he could put himself in danger.

Fortunately, the arrow did not pierce Mikael. It was because the doll in his arms took the arrow instead. It was a sight that would make one undoubtedly doubt their eyes.
