Love Letter From The Future

6.5 Silent Night, Holy Night (8)

A girl who looked like my sister took a light step.

No, strictly speaking, the expression ‘resemble’ was illegitimate. First of all, the girl in front of me was also one of my younger sisters.

Leah Percus.

She was once called that woman. Also, after being abandoned by his family, he was also the protagonist of a tragedy in which his name and even his life were taken away.

Of course, I was not free from that sin.

The girl did nothing wrong. He was only deceived by the flattering promise of a cure for an incurable disease, and ultimately fell victim to a foolish decision not to retrieve the girl.

It is our family’s responsibility.

So it was also my responsibility.

The reason why a part of my heart ache every time I face the girl is probably because my guilt has become a blade and is blaming me.

Even so, I couldn’t possibly make a warm face.

Threats heated by my clenched teeth spewed out one after another.

“The academy is not your playground… You already know that even you can’t go back alive, right?”

It wasn’t a bluff.

My words contained only plain truth.

The academy was not just a daycare center for children of noble status. It is a cradle for producing talented people, and there were also all kinds of celebrities to teach them.

President Delemore, who is evaluated as the most influential candidate for the next Master at this point.

From Professor Derek, the legendary beast hunter, to Professor Adriana, who is called the ‘Witch of the Mist Forest’.

Excluding me, there were a total of three Archmage and High Expert.

No matter how badly it is called the Seven Sins, if there are four powers like this, I have the confidence to compete at least equal. It was a reasonable conclusion unless the opponent was a strong man outside the standard like the master.

Even the girl wouldn’t be unaware of this fact.

However, the girl’s expression remained unchanged. Confident and alluring, the girl’s lips drew a mysterious arc.

“Thank you for your consideration. Knight… But please don’t worry too much. It’s not that I don’t have an idea either.”

Then, the girl lifted her chin and showed her collarbone.

A small dot was there. Just like Leah.

“By the way, my body has no dots on this side. It’s a fact you’ll find out someday, so keep it in your heart in advance.”

I laughed, as if I didn’t even deserve an answer.

It was a tone that blatantly revealed the desire to still occupy me. You’ll find out someday, are you saying that I’m going to face my younger brother naked?

Of course, apart from that, I didn’t relax.

It’s not the body, but the girl’s way to stain this place with blood is overflowing. For example, like the test subject I showed you the other day, it self-destructs.

Just imagining it was a horrific disaster.

First of all, I decided not to go against the opponent’s planting.

“How did you get here? The academy’s security wouldn’t be that lax… … .”

“Did you forget? The fact that I match the fake one in terms of genes… Unless you’re an incestuous person like my brother, it’s only natural that you don’t notice.”

It was not wrong.

I chuckled and removed my hand from the handle of the sword. It was because the people around me were looking at me and the girl with strange eyes.

That didn’t make it any easier for me, though.

Suddenly, the girl came in front of me and held out her hand. While giving off a hint of reluctance, I held his hand. A cold voice came out of me scratching my vocal chords.

“I thought about putting my face in… Do you not even remember what you did?”

“Oh, well? Instead, I remember well what my brother’s family did to me… How about you, can I tell you?”

In the end, I was the one who was speechless first.

As I groaned and averted my gaze, the girl giggled and swallowed a laugh. He said that he really enjoyed this time with me.

And soft music started playing.

The men and women gathered in the center of the banquet hall were slowly coming to terms with each other. It meant that the climax of the ‘Holy Night Festival’, the dance that continued until midnight, had begun.

There was still time until midnight.

It meant that he had enough time to talk to the girl.

Replaying a dance I learned long ago, I still asked in a barbed voice.

“… … Do you know what happened to Celine because of you?”

It was a question that he threw while grinding his teeth.

Even so, the girl’s voice in response was carefree.

“Aha, Celine sister? how would it go… He’s one of my valued customers, so it bothers me a bit.”

It was a question uttered with an innocent face.

Seriously, it was an expression that I had just remembered. Even so, you act like you’re worried.

I couldn’t stand the feeling of crying.

“Did you make it that way?”

“I didn’t do it alone.”

With a soft, sly eye smile, the girl spoke in a tone free of a handful of guilt.

“I just made Celine’s wish come true. And Celine is paying the price.”

“Putting through other people’s wounds? That’s a fair deal… … !”

“Ah, no more talking about good supporting characters!”

As if she was no longer interested, the girl cut my words and dug into my arms.

It was an act according to the order of dance.

However, the intention of making a bewitching smile while digging deep into the arms with a hook is not likely to be pure.

After that, it turns around and returns to its place.

“Why don’t you tell me something more interesting than that?”

“… … What do you mean?”

In fact, it was something I should have asked earlier.

Every action must have a reason. Even more so if a person like the Seven Sins of the Dark Church dared to dig into the middle of enemy lines.

Are you trying to ruin the holy night festival?

At first, I thought so, but surprisingly, the girl didn’t move much. They’re just dancing in pairs with me.

At my blatant suspicion, the girl burst into laughter.

“Ahahahaha! Don’t be so vigilant, brother. I told you… Today is the day when a man and a woman in love come together. Isn’t it a day for both of us?”

“I don’t really love you.”

“Soon it will be.”

Giggling, the girl’s golden eyes burned alone in the shadows.

“I’m here to warn you, brother… It looks like something fun is about to happen.”

‘It’s a fun thing’

If the madmen of the Dark Church commented that way, it was no different than saying that a terrible disaster would come to most humans.

Naturally, my face hardened. The more so, the girl’s whisper grew sweeter.

“Remember one thing… That I’m on my brother’s side You can ask me for help if you need it.”

“Of course it’s a ‘deal’ right?”

“Puhh… Surely, is there anything in this world that is not a ‘deal’?”

It was a word that clearly revealed the girl’s distorted view of the world.

A strong distrust of humans that there is no such thing as pure goodness.

However, I couldn’t bear to blame the girl. It was our family who made her that way.

It was then that the girl threw her upper body backwards and collapsed.

It wasn’t a sudden move. Because it was the posture in the dance textbook.

I naturally supported the girl’s body with one arm. The pure white legs soared, revealing alluring curves.

Embarrassed for nothing, my eyes slightly turned to the side. Then the girl became even more satisfied.

Temptation continued with the fragrant body shape.

“… … don’t you want me Give up your brother’s life, then I’ll give you mine.”

“All I want right now is for you to quickly get out of here.”

“But the eyes aren’t like that? well, okay… Because affirming desire takes a lot of courage.”

The corner of the girl’s eyes curled softly. It looked like I was going to die of cuteness.

cheekily.

If it was that long, it was long, and if it was short, the short dance was over.

The bell rang announcing the end of the holy night festival.

Pollen was scattered from the sky, and cheery laughter erupted from everywhere along with the sound of applause.

It was a story that had nothing to do with me.

It was only the occasional whisper of a voice glancing at me.

“Ian-nim, did you dance with your sister?”

“Oh, I like friendship too… If not, do you think the younger sister, who didn’t want to lose her brother, used the group?”

“No way, is there such a thing between siblings?”

That’s right.

Against the backdrop of bursting laughter, I silently glared at the girl. The girl just looked up into the air with meaningful eyes.

“It’s a blessing from the heavens… … .”

“Why, even the saintess of evil spirits wanted to receive the blessings of the heavenly gods?”

“I’m curious.”

At the same time, the girl lightly bit her smile.

But that ship, for some reason, looked a little lonely.

I was at a loss for words for a moment.

“I wonder if that lousy favoritism will bless the abandoned child.”

That was the end.

The girl didn’t say a word, just turned her back and left without a word.

It was a surprisingly clean finish.

I was worried that it would cause a riot until the end.

I couldn’t take my eyes off the girl until she completely disappeared, just in case, and soon had to greet a visit from a familiar figure.

“Hey, did you enjoy it? Sir Ian… … .”

Although she was smiling at first, she was a very pitiful girl with trembling lips.

Shien, the 5th Princess of the Empire.

After dealing with the Seven Sins of the Dark Church, the princess seemed cute now. I asked the princess with a faint smile.

“Why did you concede?”

“Yeah, that’s a lot of things intertwined! I also don’t want to make concessions… … !”

As the words got longer, the princess’ shoulders gradually lost strength.

Before long, the princess drooped and had to mutter in a despondent voice.

“I didn’t want to, but… … .”

I looked at the princess with a gloomy face in silence for a while.

Then I looked at the ceiling dripping with pollen, and then I saw the people in the banquet hall huddled together and chatting.

The music was still playing.

“… … Is the banquet over now?”

“Yes Yes?! It’s not like that… … .”

My hand was held out quietly.

The princess was startled, and just looked up blankly at me with her hands on her chest.

The look was pretty cute. In the end, I ended up with a faint smile.

“Your Highness, may I dare ask you to dance?”

It took quite a long wait for an answer to come back.

He made a stupid expression, then light water reflected in his eyes, and finally smiled.

“… … Yeah!”

The princess nodded.

The holy night ceremony of that day continued even after that.

**

The night was still deep.

I was walking along the contents of a note someone had given me. Deep in the forest located to the south of the academy, there were traces of a ruin that was said to have been built by a sage a long time ago.

Also known as ‘Moon Pond’.

The secret clearing was a famous place for lovers to have a tryst. Especially on a day like today, it was a place that would be crowded with paired lovers, but it was still a yard that was still shocked by the beast that appeared during the hunting festival.

The southern woods were amazingly quiet.

As if you could hear even the breathing of a bird that had fallen asleep quietly.

At the end of the road, passing through the lush trees, a silvery moon was floating over the clearing.

It was then.

A soft voice began to be heard from somewhere. A clear tone flowed from behind the pillars of the ruins surrounding the pond, like dew on a blade of grass falling on water.

“It is said that long ago, lovers swore their love at a fountain under the moonlight.”

It was an unexpected sermon.

But I didn’t show any sign of surprise. It was because he had already noticed the sign.

In the first place, the opponent didn’t even try to hide it.

I hmmm, let out a light saliva and crossed my arms. Soon, my gaze turned to the moon over the pond.

The moon made no reply. Continuing the story of jogon jogon is a human share.

“The moon is the eye of the heavenly god Arus. And Sam is a mirror, proof that the lover is aware of his actions. That’s why I swear in front of the angels. We will cherish and love each other forever… … .”

A crackling sound continued.

I could feel the presence of cautious steps, but I deliberately didn’t look down.

My gaze is only fixed on the moon.

In front of the celestial body, I asked.

“But, the Holy Night Festival is already over.”

“Who said that?”

Soon the sound of the water stopped close to me.

Only then did I slowly lower my gaze, and I stood still.

The silvery hair that was meekly accepting the moonlight was breathtakingly beautiful.

The light pink dots on the white drawing paper and the golden halo floating above the head added a fantastic atmosphere. Even though it was past midsummer, I had hallucinations of fireflies.

No, it’s not a hallucination.

I couldn’t even tell what was real and what was a dream.

The woman was wearing an unfamiliar outfit and was showing off her beauty more than ever.

The slightly heated cheeks tickle my heart like a spring flower.

“As a daughter of a heavenly god, I speak… … .”

A woman who shouldn’t be here.

The person who has walked the path of hardship with me, always supported me, and at the same time gave me the courage not to collapse.

saintess, no.

Lucia opened her mouth.

“… … Our ‘Holy Night Festival’ starts now.”

Was it the girl Heaven is a lousy favoritism.

For the first time, I sympathized with the girl’s words.

And thank you.

To the heavenly god who brought this woman down to earth.

It was a quiet night.
