The Villain in the Side Story Wants to Live

To check my heart (feat – Serena)

From nob le mt l dot com

Me, Serena, fell into serious trouble right after being released by Oran.

‘How can I check my heart?’

The feeling that you might like someone, that was the first time in my life I felt it.

I’ve been thinking about it all day today, but I haven’t been able to get any income.

In the end, she cleared her head by shaking her head and moved her steps into the Demon King’s Stone.

“Is Oran okay?”

“It’s perfectly fine, can I go?”

“I just need to check the status and go back. So just a little more please.”

Or An handled most of the work, but he also had to take care of things himself, so he asked Shar En to take care of him for the day.

It was a time when I wanted to go back and finish the work since I had seen his face.

I stopped in her steps thinking that if it was Charen, who was about to get married to Yong Sarang, she might be able to tell me the answer to my troubles.

“Sharon, can I ask you something?”

“What is it? You’re not asking how to check her feelings about Oran?”

“…How did you know?”

“Serena, it’s written all over her face.”

Sharenne looked at me with her pathetic eyes and said.

I tried not to show it, but was it all exposed?

No, I don’t think so. My expression acting was perfect.

It’s probably because she’s so good at reading other people’s minds.

Anyway, it feels like I’ve found the right person to share my worries with.

“I’ll help you, so please put away those burdensome eyes.”

“Thank you.”

She sighed softly and sat me down in her chair.

Then she stretched out her finger and pointed at Oran.

“Now, how do you feel while watching Oran?”

“She has no idea.”

“Don’t you want to do something to Oran, who is sleeping defenselessly?”

She had the idea that she wanted to tug at Oran’s cheek, which she seemed to be talking about because she asked.

“Seeing that you can’t answer, it must be something?”

“She… Thought she wanted to touch her cheek.”

“That’s it! Is that proof that you like Oran?”

Sharenne was screaming in excitement, but I couldn’t understand.

“Isn’t wanting to pinch your cheeks bullying?”

“It could be an expression of endearment.”

“I didn’t mean it that way.”

“Why is a person who said he doesn’t even know his mind so sure?”

After that, I heard a long explanation about ‘what is affection expression?’ From Sharenne, but I couldn’t understand it at all.

“…I just think it’s easy. Just think of Oran as a lover and go on a date.”

“A date?”

“Yes, if she was in a good mood that day, then she likes Or Anh.”

She became a lover herself and tried to confirm her heart. It didn’t sound like a bad way.

I nodded her head lightly, and Sharenne excitedly continued her words.

“This festival, did Oran help you too? How about going to see it together?”

I was looking forward to going out together as Oran’s lover for one night.

…… So, she wasn’t thrilled about being with him, she just thought it was good because she could pay off the debt she was helped by.

But the question is, does Oran want to go outside?

“He’s sure to say he wants to go out.”

“Why are you so sure?”

“Hmm… You’d like to check Orando Serena’s mind?”

Rani to check her feelings.

It’s like Oran has a crush on me too.

My heart started beating out of nowhere.

Why? Could it be that he was happy?

…… I can’t deny it.

The next day, Oran woke up. Oran was glad to see her again, but honestly, she was a bit awkward.

On that day, something unexpected happened, and above all, our relationship changed again.

‘But I have to pay for his consideration.’

But it was hard for her to do her favor for no reason.

She willingly gave her favor, but it would be scary if Oran thought it strange and rejected it.

I was a coward.

“Oran, try my compliments.”

But she couldn’t refuse even him if it was a ‘compensation’ with a ‘price’.

So I made up my mind to give him what he wanted, no matter how much he complimented me.

“As far as praise goes… Serena, you are beautiful.”

“……Are you serious? Tell me more.”

Oran saw me and complimented me on how pretty I was.

It was obviously a random question to do him a favor.

“Your hair is smoother than silk, and your skin is white. I think blue eyes are prettier than any jewel.”

What should I do if I feel better after hearing his praise?

…… I hadn’t even started pretending to be a lover yet, but I thought I might already like Oran.

.

.

.

Just before taking him out, he was in a moment of trouble.

Wouldn’t it hurt him if he took Oran to the festival held to commemorate the death of the Demon King?

But Oran knew that and helped.

…… Only for me

“How about it, isn’t it beautiful?”

“It’s peaceful.”

Fortunately, he didn’t get angry even when he saw the lively festival scene.

On the contrary, he looked around the city and smiled brightly as if he was curious.

One thing is certain with this, Oran completely forgot about the demon lord.

“I have suffered from you during this time, so today I will harass you at will.”

So if you engrave precious memories with me in the vacancy created by the demon king’s vacancy.

Couldn’t I be his significant other?

“So how long are you going to hold your hand?”

I was blown away by his question. Come to think of it, he has been holding Or An’s hand ever since he came out of the demon king’s stone.

He told him that it was to prepare for an unexpected situation.

“Hasn’t the ring already been put on? Then that’s fine.”

“That’s true, but…”

He was right. He had no reason to hold his hand if it was simply fear of danger.

It’s okay to let go. I could let it go, but my hand never came off.

For some reason, the warmth that comes from holding hands with him is warm?

Or maybe it’s because the texture of his rough, rough hands feels special.

…… Yes, this was just a procedure to check my heart through pretending to be a lover.

Because Charen told me that couples are like this.

So there was no selfishness.

…… Maybe it is

.

.

The first place I visited with Oran was a tailor.

‘Before I went to sleep, I asked if the uniform was uncomfortable.’

Oran himself was wearing rags that wouldn’t be strange to tear at any moment.

I’ve already paid for his consideration by going out.

I wanted to give you a piece of clothing as a gift for the compliment you gave me.

“Could you please take off the mask?”

“Never, never.”

After his retirement, he overreacted even though he knew that Arsen, who had been tailoring for decades, didn’t mean it.

But if Or Anh’s identity is exposed, he may never be seen again.

Even if Sharenne had implicitly understood this relationship, it would be the end if the fact that Oran went out came to the ears of the hero.

“So that’s why…”

“Because only I will see.”

I tried to explain calmly and slowly, but the moment I thought of a future without Oran, my words were in vain.

“Heh heh, then I can’t help it. Then can you give me a rough impression?”

Fortunately, did he understand the hidden meaning? Arsen laughed and used soundproofing magic.

Now I just need to tell him what Oran looks like, but when I’m about to talk, I don’t know how to describe his face.

I wasn’t ugly. That’s why I’m not handsome compared to Evil… There was just Oran’s unique charm.

However, there were many ambiguous parts to explain in words.

“If it’s difficult to explain, could you tell us about your personality or atmosphere?”

It wasn’t difficult at all.

“At first glance, he seems cold and heartless, but inside he is a very warm man.”

“Hmm, and then?”

“There are so many useless affections. Even though it seems like he won’t do it, in the end, he’ll give you anything you want.”

Arsen’s eyebrows furrowed subtly. After that, I saw him sighing, but for now, he continued talking.

“It’s a heavy atmosphere overall, but it’s not like that when I open my mouth. When we met before…”

“I think you’ve heard enough about your personality. The color of your eyes or something like that?”

“Impressive are his bright black eyes that seem to embrace the universe. More than that, there’s still more to say about his atmosphere…”

He let out a big sigh and shrugged his shoulders as if to say whatever he wanted.

I continued to explain, and Arsen would often ask me questions and write them down in a notebook while I was talking.

“Enough. Enough.”

With the soundproofing magic removed, his face looked strangely tired.

Have you lost sleep? I was worried that the item I was going to present to Oran might have a defect, but I decided to trust him since he is an expert who has made my uniform many times.

“Does it suit you?”

As expected, I wonder if it was a pointless suspicion. Oran, who took off his rags and changed into a suit, looked like a completely different person.

If he was like a third-rate villain in the past, now he’s like a black guy with some kind of black scheme.

“He looks like a villain who is good at stealing.”

It reminds me of him, who used to be the devil’s servant, because he was dressed in a slick outfit.

For an instant, he stole my attention.

…… If I wasn’t careful, I could have taken other things away.

A dangerous villain.

If I go out like this, I’ll steal all the other women’s eyes.

That never happened.

“…As expected, it’s a face I don’t want to show to others.”

That’s why you should never show it to others.

…… When I thought about it, I definitely felt it.

At least I have a crush on him.
