(EP-19.2) How A Sheep Lives #4

019 How A Sheep Lives In A Lions Den #4

I was blown away by Elgas words.

No, even a child knew that was not common sense. You had someone kiss you for a candy, and you didnt even like them?

But then I noticed something. Despite saying it so casually, Elga seemed to be restless.

She was actually happy to receive my confession, but she had to refuse it because of her pride!

I was really annoyed. But for some reason, I also felt that this girl had become a little, only a little bit, cuter

Upon this realization, I reined in my control.

There was no way I would fall in love with Elga just because she had a pretty face. Instead, she was the one who had the hots for me right now!

Whoo-

I held my breath and pretended to be very sad.

To fool and deceive.

Wasnt that what I did best?

I thought of Elga-nim every day. This is really heartbreaking. I thought we liked each other. Something like love that transcends status I thought it would be possible

Really? Well, then, Im sorry. Eum After all, theres no way a love beyond status is possible This is not a fairy tale or a novel. Eum.

Elga scratched her nose.

Her feet were constantly rubbing the ground. Thanks to this, the soil got dug out and a small pit was created.

Paseuk, paseuk, paseuk-

I couldnt notice it because I was taken aback by the earlier rejection, however, Elga was the type of person whod get anxious whenever she lied.

I smiled on the inside and let out a small sigh. Then, I said as if making up my mind.

It is very sad, but as Elga-nim said, our statuses are simply too different. I dont think Elga-nim will like me if Im not good enough for her

Ye, yeah

Well, I can at least put my mind to rest In fact, thank you for such a swift refusal. Now, I can really give up and focus on working for the good of the kingdom!

Youre giving up?

Indeed. Im going to give up on my feelings!

Hey, didnt you say you like me? Youre just giving up so easily!?

This time, Elga became angry at me.

This damn bitch. What did you want me to do? Fortunately, I was not really in love and could think.

If it had been Theo, a man who really liked Elga, how much anxiety would he have felt at Elgas attitude?

Was this the pain of men who had their feelings played with?

It was a very nymphophobic pain!

Thinking about this made me really furious.

However, without showing anything on the surface, I asked Elga as if I knew nothing.

I have no choice but to give up, dont I? You have built a very high wall.

Hey, Theo, dont you know the saying that theres no axe that breaks in just 10 strikes?

What saying?

And why were you talking about axes? I wasnt planning to cut a tree.

However, not knowing that she had made a mistake, Elga continued to speak fluently.

Dont give up and keep trying until the end! Be ruthless! Dont you have a backbone? Is that why you cant do it? Maybe you just dont have the guts!

Then, if I do not give up and continue to woo Elga-nim, will you fall for me?

Of course not.

Figured. Then, I really should just give up. Ill devote my life to Her Majesty. Thats my duty in the first place.

Thats thats right. Yeah, but you-. Are you sure youll be able to forget me? Huh? Think about it! Wont you dream of me in your sleep? How about seeing my image whenever you look in the mirror?

You seem to know the details even better than I do

Yeah, this is, of course, the common sense of educated youth. It will be hard to forget about someone immediately. Its like putting out magic candles. It simply wont be easy!

Seukseuk- Seuk- Elga was now pushing dirt back with her feet and filled the hole she had made.

She looked very nervous and anxious. However, I pretended not to notice and just nodded my head slowly.

Thats true, I guess.

You know what? Because I am generous, how about I help you move on little by little? Ill give you a chance to erase me from your mind. Ill even do things like going on a date with you. Slowly, bit by bit, youll be able to forget about me. Just like that!

But, Im going to the Academy. Also, I may be able to forget it unexpectedly fast. Of course, it will be tough, but.

The Academy? Ah- right. If you go to that faraway place.

Bugeulbugeul-

I could almost hear bubbles boiling on top of Elgas head. Her face was completely red as she licked her lips. Her tomato face looked like it would explode with just a poke.

The Academy.

Elga-nim, didnt you say you wouldnt go?

I did. But, thats not necessarily what we decided. Though, I also really dont have much to learn there-.

This was getting pathetic.

If she continued to show such a cute side, I felt that I would develop an affection which didnt really exist. So, I had to make a decision at this point.

Im really sorry, Elga-nim. But maybe with your kindness Can I, Theo Gospel, ask you one last once-in-a-lifetime request?

Once-in-a-lifetime? Why are you getting so serious?

This is a request I made with the determination to die. If you listen to this, I think I will be able to live without regrets in the future.

Made with the determination to die

Elga should react to this desperate remark.

What is it? Are you asking me to accept your affection, or to marry me? Of course, I cant accept a request that has me throwing everything away to elope with you.

I could see the curiosity and subtle anticipation on Elgas embarrassed face.

This was the deciding moment on whether or not I could control Elga, who might one day become an important helper of the Villain Hunter party, and have her stay by my side.

Dugeundugeun.

I had already made up my mind. But no matter how prepared I was, my heart still pounded in nervousness. Could I truly say these words? What if I get rejected again?

No, lets just do it and think about the consequences later

Plus, this was much easier compared to what I said to Aira.

So, what is the request? Lets hear it first!

I slowly opened my mouth to Elga, who seemed to have done some mental preparation to an extent.
