Chapter 59

Time that seemed to last forever will come to an end someday. This is a truth that even God cannot control, and it is an immutable law.

The warm love affair between me and Marie had to come to an end. In my heart, we wanted to hug for hours, but we both broke up with the promise of tomorrow.

Even when we parted, we didn’t forget to kiss each other lightly with regret. What is surprising is that Marie, not me, held out her head first. I was only responding.

Thus, the sweet time that caused tooth decay was over, but the tingling sensation on the tongue continued into the next day.

“Hehehe.”

“What if someone sees this?”

“Take a look. There’s no need to hide it anyway.”

During lectures, without anyone knowing, holding hands.

“Let’s go over there today! Tiramisu over there is so delicious!”

“What else?”

“There are many other things. First of all, if there is something…”

After class, they unconditionally stick together and wander around the academy.

“Ah.”

“Evil! Why are you biting?”

“I just want to bite. Sometimes some people say they eat their lover’s face, so I think I understand why.”

Suddenly biting my cheek, etc.

The progress was so fast that I couldn’t even imagine that it was the beginning of a relationship. From the very beginning, she went beyond holding hands and kissing, so she was expecting this.

Of course, I would like to avoid the act of biting my cheek while going occasionally. It may seem like a joke to others, but it really hurts from the point of view of the victim.

“Then you’ll have to bite your neck. Hen!”

“Ahh!”

Still, it doesn’t change that every day is enjoyable. When I write a manuscript at the dormitory, I think of Marie’s bright smile, I think of her while walking down the street, and I think of her when I eat.

It’s not that I haven’t been in a relationship in my previous life, but this feeling has been a source of energy for me. Perhaps because of this, the speed of writing the manuscript has increased terribly.

The gaze of those around us? It bothered me a little, but it didn’t matter. Marie was in the position that it didn’t matter if we found out about our relationship, and I, too, had nothing to kneel in, so I was able to maintain a proud attitude.

On the surface, the duke’s daughter and the son of a baron are dating, and they don’t really look like each other, but if you look into the details, they’re 180 degrees different. If that gaze was given, both of us would shed a sneer inwardly.

“…Wicked.”

“… …”

“Is that ok?”

“Yeah?”

I hurriedly woke up to someone’s call. Thinking about Marie, I accidentally fell into thoughts for a moment.

When I came to my senses and looked ahead, Cindy, an elf with dark circles and rotten eyes like Dong-tae, was staring at me. She blinked her eyes slowly and opened her mouth in a characteristic hoarse voice.

“I feel like I’m being bruised again… What do you think?”

“Ah… I have a lot to think about for a moment.”

“Isn’t that strange?”

“Huh…”

I couldn’t help but blur my words, avoiding Cindy’s question. I couldn’t get the words out of my mouth that I remembered kissing Marie just before.

Today, Marie said she had work to do with her older brother and left first. She took this opportunity to come because she was too busy recently and she came to Professor Elena’s lab where she was teaching Cindy her writing skills.

But Marie kept coming to mind. I’m guessing this is serious.

There was nothing more disrespectful than thinking differently in front of another person, so I quickly erased it from my mind.

“It’s not strange. It really is.”

“Umm…”

Cindy stared at my answer with lifeless eyes, then turned her head. A notebook lay on the side where she turned her head.

“So how do I do this?”

“As I’ve always said, the most important thing in writing is what you convey. Especially in the thesis Cindy is trying to write, this part tends to get deeper…”

Almost three months had passed since Elena received the proposal, but the number of visits to the lab was significantly less. This is because various incidents and accidents have occurred since receiving her proposal.

So it seems like I’m eating too raw, and when I have more free time, I visited the lab today. He also had information to ask Cindy for the development of Xenon’s biography.

“First of all, Cindy is okay with basic things like spelling and spacing. It’s because the grammar is messed up.”

“I’m sorry.”

“You don’t have to apologize. The grammar is as simple as it gets, the more you dig into it, the more complicated it becomes. To put it simply, it’s easier to think of everyday conversations. Isn’t there an educational institution like an academy in Cindy’s hometown?”

“Hey, it’s because, in the first place, an educational institution called the Academy was established by our elves.”

Since humans imitated the civilization achieved by the elves, there is a possibility that educational institutions followed suit. Still, it was like new knowledge to me, so it was a little surprising as well.

Occasionally, listening to Cindy’s story, I wondered why the elves had left humans as they are. Is it because of the confidence that no matter how hard people try, it won’t work for them?

In fact, unless you’re a knight, it’s very difficult to defeat an elf warrior even if a human soldier rushes to the ground. Since there is a huge difference from the basic specifications, even the elves may not have cared about it.

‘Even at the time of the Tribal War, there was never a record of being pushed back.’

The decisive reason for the end of the racial war was not that one side was defeated, but that the elves self-destructed. To be precise, the shovel was repeated non-stop on the side of the head.

Everywhere you go, Kkondae is a problem, especially if you have a high Kkondae, the people below them will suffer. Since then, there has been a generational shift, but the impact is terrifying.

‘Certainly, human beings change generations frequently, so the water change will happen sooner.’

Anyway, let’s say-

“No. You’re saying this again. Isn’t it difficult for me to explain? It’s because you can just write down what Cindy wants to say? Think about when Cindy talks with me.”

“Umm… okay…”

Cindy’s learning could be said to be truly catastrophic. You have to repeat the same explanation over and over again to understand it.

Should I say that I have to chew it with my mouth and force it to accept it? Compared to humans, other races said that learning was slow, and it seems that was true. Moreover, according to Professor Elena’s comment, Cindy said that she was more blunt than other elves, so she had no choice but to be frustrated.

“Whoa… I’m sorry for being angry. I should have come more often…”

“No, you don’t know, but I’m an elf, so this came too soon…”

As I lamented as I washed my face, Cindy was embarrassed with a sign of apology. As I watched it, I felt the anger that had been on the verge of boiling down gradually subside.

It’s not that you don’t have the will at all, it’s that your head is dull. If you get angry, that’s the problem. Otherwise, she could break her will for nothing.

‘There’s still plenty of time. In the third year, I will visit the lab from time to time, so you just have to be patient until then.’

An elf’s notion of time should never be compared to a human. A year for an elf is only about a month for a human.

I glanced at Cindy, who was jotting down texts in her notebook with a pen, and opened her mouth. As I said before, teaching Cindy to write can be done slowly.

“Cindy.”

“Yes?”

“Have you read the book I talked about last time?”

“Zenon’s biography? Did you read it… It was very interesting… Thanks a lot, it helped me a lot…”

It was at this level that it helped me a lot… It felt good to have read it in a fun way, but for some reason I only got a bitter laugh.

Anyway, the reason why I mentioned Xenon’s biography is about elves who will occupy an important position in Xenon’s biography in the future.

Also, in ‘The Seven Deadly Sins’, the devil’s executive who is in charge of ‘pride’ is an elf. I’m trying to ask Elena directly, but I don’t have time, so I’m trying to check Cindy’s reaction.

Of course, you should check if you’ve read up to volume 9 before that. I asked Cindy the next question, who answered with a nod.

“How many books have you read?”

“I’ve read everything… I told the professor that he was willing to lend me…”

“Then, what do you think of the elves being in charge of pride among the Seven Deadly Sins?”

“Umm…”

At my question, Cindy stopped the pen she was writing in her notebook and pursed her lips. He seemed to have listened to my question and pondered it.

Uniquely, Cindy tends to answer my questions faithfully without any doubt. You may not know it, but by nature, you like to explain things to others. They even explain well.

Although it is very difficult to translate that explanation into writing. If that had been perfect, Professor Elena would not have sighed.

“Well… It’s been a long time since I left my hometown, so I don’t know, I don’t know… Maybe you’re seriously considering it? Even during the Tribal War, our elves were destroyed from the inside out because of pride, not outside pressure… I’ll admit it reluctantly. ..”

“Then there’s no response…”

“It is absolutely not that there is no reaction… Even if there is a generational change, the internal strife is still there… Fortunately, the Queen is on a moderate side, so there won’t be any problems yet…”

Conversely, on the elf side, there are people who are trying to catch me. The queen’s personality is mild and she’s only blocking it, but if the problem gets bigger here, words will come out.

I listened to her explanation and remembered the future development. If the 9th book is the appearance of the Seven Deadly Sins, the 10th volume will deal with the story of the elves.

To be precise, it is the story of the ‘master’ who taught the elf queen and Zeno. Originally, I would have written it without thinking, but it was difficult to write it carelessly considering the influence of the Demons and the Seven Sins.

“Um… Cindy.”

“Why?”

“Cindy, what do you think of the elf’s deep bond with humans?”

“Yes?”

Cindy listened to my question and looked at me and blinked a couple of times. Doubts settled in the clouded expression on his face.

Why am I talking about this because of the relationship between the elf queen and the ‘master’. A love story between a long-lived elf and a short-lived human. What a sad story this is.

But strangely, there was no such story in this world. Even in other romance novels, there was no love story between an elf and a human.

I don’t know if there is a taboo against making love with other races for elves, or if there is another reason, but it is very important to me. Only in this way can an incident that may occur in the future be prevented.

As I hit the demons, the steam locomotive, and the Seven Deadly Sins three times in a row, I had no choice but to take a cautious attitude. If this too has a severe ripple effect, I will boldly exclude it.

“Why all of a sudden? Are you interested in me?”

Cindy, who was quietly staring at me, suddenly revealed such a question. It could be a timid word, so she immediately shook her hand in denial.

“No. No. That’s not the case. It’s something I’ve always been curious about, and I already have a girlfriend.”

“Yeah? Hmm…”

Cindy nodded with suspicion and began to ponder. He then seemed to roll his head for a while, then tilted his head in reply.

“The saying that we have a relationship with humans… It’s almost impossible… Compared to elves, human lifespans are extremely short…”

“Then what about other races other than humans?”

“Sorry… As you know, we elves tend to look down on other races… As the generations change, that kind of gaze has diminished, but it’s still there… If it’s not someone he acknowledged, it’s good to treat him the same. Don’t do it…”

Again, it was like a proud race. However, it is not incomprehensible when you consider where the roots of that pride lie.

Cindy paused for a moment while I was thinking about it, then added more.

“Even if they say they’re dating, the elves will reject it… There’s nothing sadder than living with the person you loved for the rest of your life buried in your heart?

“Hmm… longevity is definitely the biggest issue.

“But why? Is your girlfriend an elf?”

“No. It’s not, but…”

I answered Cindy’s question with a genuinely happy smile.

“She’s pretty like an elf.”

“…Ugh.”

Then Cindy put on a face that she had heard all sorts of strange sounds.
