I was raised in the simulator, and I’m really not a bad woman in Ark!

[Gladiya, who was still staring at your photo on the train, sneezed suddenly.]

[The long silver hair was inexplicably dyed with a vibrant color under the reflection of the light...]

……

Chapter 82: What are you looking at? You are a lesbian too!

【Laurentina joins your life.】

[Compared to the quiet and cold Gloria at the beginning, Laurentina, who grew up in a warm family, obviously behaves more like a child of her age.]

[She is enthusiastic, lively, and has a strong curiosity about all the new things around her. ]

[After seeing a beautiful flower that they don't recognize, they will surround you and chirp around like little birds, asking questions.]

[You answered Laurentina's questions with a smile, using the words on the notebook, as if you were taking care of other children in the past.]

【Your relationship has become much closer because of this. 】

[At night, you personally cooked a lot of delicious food to entertain Laurentina. The girl was very happy and said to you excitedly, "I want to marry you in the future!"]

[You just laughed it off, after all, you have heard such things many times. ]

[So you patted Laurentina's head, wrote on a page of paper in your notebook, 'Okay, remember to come and marry me later.', and then gave the paper to Laurentina.]

[Laurentina was overjoyed and carefully hid it in the secret pocket of her clothes, as if she had found a rare treasure, and swore that she would never lose it in her lifetime.]

[You were amused by the girl's serious oath, pinched Laurentina's face, and put a piece of fresh fish into her bowl.]

【And at night, after you take a bath with Laurentina, playing with the little yellow duck and bubbles. 】

[You also naturally slept in the same bed with her. ]

[This is Laurentina's choice. She told you that she is actually afraid of the dark and is worried that a monster will take her away.]

[You are looking at Laurentina, whose expression and movements are exaggerated and obviously joking.]

[Knowing that she wanted to sleep with you, you also smiled and hugged her, promising that you would not let the "monster" take her away. ]

[And before going to bed at night, he habitually kisses the girl on the forehead. ]

[The soft and warm touch made Laurentina, who was originally jumping around in the quilt, freeze as if she had been electrocuted.]

[Her face was slightly red from shyness. It was obvious that although she looked lively and generous on the surface, Laurentina was still a child in reality.]

[And you were satisfied with this and fell asleep hugging the small, soft, and fragrant Laurentina. ]

[The days you spend together will probably be like this.]

[During the day, you will sit in the flower shop and read quietly, check the condition of the flowers, entertain the occasional guests, and go out to buy or help the children and nuns in the monastery in your spare time.]

[During this period, Laurentina also sat in your arms and read the books you were reading, asking you from time to time what the stories in the books meant, standing on a stool to help you look at the potted plants high up while you were checking the condition of the flowers, enthusiastically recommending flower types to guests, helping you bargain and carry the belt when you went out to buy, and carving some small handicrafts to please everyone when you went to the monastery.]

[In short, compared to Gloria, who is more indifferent and loves to study. ]

[Laurentina is undoubtedly a complete optimist. ]

[But you can also see that although the girl has such a personality, there is a little gap hidden under the communication and enthusiasm between her and anyone. ]

[However, Laurentina does not have this kind of barrier towards you. After all, in the past six months of daily interactions, you have already entered the girl's heart.]

[Your gentleness, delicacy, kindness, and your frail nature exude a beauty like a fragile glass work of art, which is very attractive.]

[This is especially true for Laurentina, who already enjoys appreciating art and is good at sculpture.]

[It’s just… after you and Laurentina had been getting to know each other for half a year, you began to feel a little distressed.]

[That's when you found out that Laurentina started to have the same problem as Gloria after the incident.]

[Always takes your cup by mistake, drinks the tea before you can react, and looks at you with pure red eyes in confusion. ]

[Although she doesn't sleep in a separate room from you like Gloria, Laurentina has started to become restless when she goes to bed at night.

Perhaps because she treated this place as her home and completely relaxed, Laurentina began to like tossing and turning, often pressing on you and hugging you, and even occasionally hugging your lower abdomen from behind, and after you struggled in vain, she directly pressed you down on the bed from behind. 】

[This bothers you a lot, after all, this position makes it hard for you to breathe, and thus makes some unpleasant noises, but you don't plan to say anything, you think this couldn't be intentional by Laurentina.]

[Perhaps this child lacks a sense of security. Although he appears to be normal on the surface, anyone would feel uneasy after being separated from his parents for such a long time, right?]

【So you comfort and help Laurentina. 】

"What kind of book is this? A young mother's script, right?"

Looking at the contents of the simulator, Ikaros was greatly shocked. Although Gloria had revealed some flaws, the Second Battalion was at least tactful and reserved enough.

But looking at you, Laurentina, should we say that you are worthy of being a deep-sea shark lure?

You've already shown your lesbian nature at such a young age, right? Fortunately, you don't have that skill, otherwise I'm afraid that the silly me in the simulation would have been kicked, right?

The more Ikaros thought about it, the more horrible it seemed to him. At the same time, he regretted the combination of his talents this time, and decided that next time he would never choose the so-called 'gentle person' no matter what.

After all, you are too gentle, aren't you? Although you are not a saint, but...but sister, you are about to be beaten! (Great Sorrow)

"Never mind, just keep watching. It won't be me who gets punched anyway, so it's fine to just have fun with it."

Ikaros comforted himself, sighed, and after calming down his emotions, he continued to look at the simulator panel.

[You finally made a large plush shark pillow and gave it to Laurentina, and explained to the girl that you were not in good health and would feel uncomfortable if you were hugged too tightly.]

[After hearing your frank statement, Laurentina thought about how she had done the previous one out of ignorance, and she felt terrible, especially when she saw that you had made a plush pillow for her.]

[After all, Laurentina didn’t know anything about your physical problems. She just thought you were in a wheelchair because you were not used to walking, and you didn’t talk because you didn’t like it. ]

[——To be honest, Agor is not like there are no such people. ]

[But you acted so naturally and gently that Laurentina, who was not as sensitive as Gloria, didn't notice it at all and started to think about your physical problems.]

[So after learning the truth, in an instant, feelings of guilt, self-blame, and regret surged into the girl's heart. ]

[Laurentina suddenly said something confusing like 'I'm sorry, I was wrong, I won't do it again' and cried while hugging your thighs.]

[You were a little confused, but you still instinctively hugged the girl's thin back, put her head on your chest, gently patted her head and comforted her.]

[As you sort out your thoughts, you seem to realize something, but you still trust the girl.]

【You didn’t continue to think deeply in the end. 】

[Laurentina also asked to sleep in a separate room from you that night. You tried to persuade her to stay, but she was firm in her attitude, so your request was in vain.]

[In fact, you won’t be able to adapt without Laurentina as your pillow. ]

[You used to hold Gloria, until she suddenly grew taller, but now you are used to holding Laurentina.]

[Speaking of Gloria, you couldn't help but sigh as you slept alone at night. After all, that school was closed, and you hadn't had any news or contact with Gloria in the past six months.]

[This makes you very worried about her current situation, whether she is eating well, taking a good bath, studying, sleeping well, how she gets along with her classmates, whether she is in a relationship, etc.]

[But unfortunately, all this will take another half a year to be revealed. ]

[So in the end, you fell into a deep sleep, thinking of Goladia and Laurentina in your arms.]

[On the second day, you found that Laurentina woke up early, which was unusual for her, and prepared dinner in advance.]

[He was very active throughout the day, and he no longer sat in your arms and pestered you to talk. He seemed to have matured all of a sudden.]

[You probably understand the reason and can only smile bitterly.]

And she gave a towel and scented tea to the girl who was sweating from her busy forehead with a little pity and comfort. 】

[At the same time, I thought, it would be better if Laurentina didn’t make the mistake of mixing the teacups. ]

【But generally speaking, this is fine if you think it’s good. 】

[But Laurentina will leave eventually...]

[About half a month after you and I came up with the idea, Laurentina's parents came back from work and took the reluctant Laurentina away.]

[Although Laurentina promised to visit you often, your life was obviously lonely again.]

[You met Laurentina the day after Gloria left, so you were looking forward to the next 'Laurentina' appearing.]

[But unfortunately... this time, you didn't wait for the next child to accompany you. ]

[The first month after Laurentina left, you were full of anticipation. ]

[In the second month, you feel a little lost and start to wonder when Laurentina will come to see you.]

[In the third month, you stared at the flower pot in a daze, burned your hands with the flower tea, and broke your beloved teacup.]

[In the fourth month, you no longer have any expectations and return to being alone.]

[You are still gentle and kind, willing to help others and everyone in the monastery.

It was just that slightly thin, lonely figure, sitting in a wheelchair and looking at the flower shop with only flowers, which made him look a little lonely. 】

[Touching the pink buds of heather on the counter, you feel lonely and want to go out for a walk. ]

[But unexpectedly, in a dark corner of the water city, I found a... well, or rather, a strange-looking, blue, half-dead fish.]

[You feel that this feature is somewhat familiar, but a sense of intimacy derived from blood makes you kindhearted and take it back to your residence on the second floor of the flower shop without thinking.]

[He filled the fish tank with water, and after briefly treating the wound on the other party's body, he put it in...]

[But you obviously don’t know that your behavior today will be a turning point in your life. ]

……

Chapter 83 Hai Si, Doubt and the New Child

[Four months after Laurentina left, you accidentally picked up a 'fish' while out.]

[Or to be more precise, you picked up a sea beast that somehow got into the water city, which is the sea beast that is passed down by word of mouth among the Agor people and the so-called disaster by the official.]

[After you looked up relevant information on the first floor of the flower shop, you subconsciously recalled that you wanted to report the sea turtle you picked up to the Maritime Administration.]

[But... after you had the idea of ​​reporting it, the fact that your parents died in the siege by Haisi in the past also lingered in your mind again at this moment, making you, who thought you had let go of the past, have the idea of ​​revenge again. ]

[But when you came to the bathtub on the second floor with a knife, Hai Si had already woken up.]

[It looks at you quietly, as if it didn't see the cold blade in your hand. It just looks at you calmly, and even tilts its head when you approach cautiously with the knife, as if wondering what you want to do.]

[And the strange feeling of closeness and strong calling from the blood also made you feel dazed when you saw this scene, and the knife in your unsteady hand fell to the ground. ]

[This made you feel confused, and Hai Si took advantage of your distraction to rush out.]

[You can't help but recall the rumors about how terrifying Hai Si was. You didn't have time to pick up the knife, so you subconsciously closed your eyes in fear and put your hands in front of your chest to defend against possible attacks.]

[However, the pain you expected did not appear. When you opened your eyes, you saw Hai Si holding the fallen knife and standing in front of you obediently, wagging his tail behind him, conveying his goodwill to you.]

[After you opened your eyes, he took the initiative to spit out the knife that was covered with saliva and jumped back into the water tank. His pair of dark blue eyes looked at you, conveying joy and intimacy.]

[This unexpected scene made you stand there at a loss, staring at the sea snake-like Hai Si, even though you knew that the other party was the incarnation of disaster, even though you knew that the other party was the Hai Si clan that destroyed your once happy family and life. ]

[But for some reason, you find yourself completely unable to feel any hatred towards it. ]

[On the contrary, it gives you a sense of closeness like a blood relative, making you want to touch it, feed it, and take care of it...]

[But this idea is completely contrary to the education you received as an Agor, the common sense you have, and the hatred and resentment you have for your deceased parents, and it has caused your mind to fall into confusion.]

[You picked up the knife, gritted your teeth and approached Haisi who was indifferent to your actions. You swung the knife to kill it, but your hands were shaking and you couldn't swing it no matter what.

This was true even if Hai Si never struggled or took any action, but just quietly waited for the blade to fall.】

[You instinctively reject the idea of ​​hurting Hai Si, and even desire to be intimate with him. ]

[This discovery dealt you a huge blow. The knife in your hand fell off again, and you staggered out of the shower room with trembling steps. You returned to the bed and wrapped yourself in the quilt. You were trembling all over, and it seemed as if two completely opposite thoughts were constantly colliding in your mind.]

[Do you really hate Haisi? ]

[This question once again lingered in your mind. If it were in the past, you would have answered without hesitation that you hated Haisi.]

[But when you really meet Hai Si and get the chance to kill him.

But you found that you were unable to achieve revenge, and even saved the sea turtle.

This made you, who noticed this fact, feel guilty about your parents who died because of Haisi. You began to feel that you were a coward and suspected that you were a monster...】

[You staggered back to your room as if escaping, and amidst self-blame, entanglement, and inner struggle, you were drowsy and pulled into an unknown sleep by a call from the distant sea, and your consciousness gradually fell into a trance. ]
