I Can See Your Code

I see your code (80)

Two weeks passed again after receiving the pledge.

So far, the 1st Knights have been faithfully carrying out their security work than expected. Those who thought only of the safety of the imperial palace and the nobility are now talking about their own citizens, and this is a change that almost seems like the heavens and the earth have changed.

It’s probably thanks to Hans’ breath, but I don’t know what he did.

Well, that doesn’t mean they’ve shed their emotions in just two weeks. Still, aren’t you proud of just doing your security work silently?

Because there are people in the world who are not fully aware of their own work.

Yes, just like the bride-to-be in front of me.

“… … There’s really no problem, right? Kitan-sama is relatively generous with his double work, but I don’t know if he’ll admit to going to a group that I’ve never heard of before.”

“I checked everything from the definition of the realm controlled by each god to the issue of extra-legal authority specified in the scriptures. I think it will take a few days to give you a rough explanation. Can you please?”

“I’ll just sign it.”

Arina wrote her name on the paper with a tired face. He put the written contract into his arms and smiled happily.

He brought a girl who would become a saint of Kitan into the company. And that too with no money. I can’t feel bad.

“let’s go eat. As a commemoration of the contract, I will buy you meatless meat soup.”

“Don’t think that I will look cheap just because I signed autographs. I just couldn’t do it because I owed something.”

Arina said with a piercing expression on her face. I smiled and shrugged.

“It’s a joke. So, do you want to go to the ‘Royal Road’? There is a restaurant I went to two years ago.”

“Well, the food is good… … .”

Arina hesitated a bit and then asked abruptly.

“Do you think Rian-sama really intends to establish a Lian school?”

At those words, I turned back the leg that had just stood up. are you crazy I remember saying the same thing two years ago. At the time, it seemed like a joke, but now it seems to be half sincere.

“What kind of bullshit is that?”

“That’s right. Do you know what the devotees who come to the temple always say these days? How was Rian-sama, how was Saint-sama? … . If you pay money and talk to me, it won’t make sense.”

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t sound like a job to be a priest.

“You can do a better job.”

“What are you talking about? I am always working hard. The problem is believers. It doesn’t create an environment where I can work properly.”

“What is your responsibility?”

“A donation, an offering.”

“… … Oh yeah.”

It’s like this, starting with the priest who welcomes guests.

Arina shrugged her chin and yawned droopy.

“Anyway, do you know how much the number of followers decreased because of Rihanna? If there is a living saint, what use is God? These days, some people think of the temple as a clinic that treats you for money.”

“Maybe it’s because of me.”

I looked around as I spoke.

Temple of Khitan. Two years ago, there didn’t seem to be that many believers, but now there are more. As for the level, the number of priests and devotees almost seems to be the same. No, it seems that there are more priests.

If this is the largest temple of Khitan on the continent, it is obvious that you do not see the situation of other temples.

Ultimately, it is a vicious cycle. Since the temple has no income from harp, they are hung up on the profits of treatment, and the believers see it and let go of their faith that the priests are addicted to money.

It was not meant to be taken as a joke by Arina. Not that I can do anything about it though.

If it’s my fault that the temple income was my fault, I’d think of some way, but it’s not related at all. There is really no way that the number of followers has decreased because of me.

I hear saints and everything, but I don’t think many people really think that way. It’s like half a joke.

“Well, you have a down payment now, so there’s no problem. Buy a lot of meat and eat it.”

“I think Rihanna tends to think of me like a carnivore sometimes. It’s just that I’m not very good at being vegetarian, I’m not particularly fond of meat.”

“Normal people call them carnivores.”

“It’s a lot better these days. Just because you don’t eat meat doesn’t mean you have to make porridge.”

“So, you want meatless soup?”

“no. Let’s go to the royal road.”

Arina jumps up. Its speed is almost comparable to that of a knight. It will be so. I smiled and opened the door and walked out.

The outside was as clean as it was two years ago.

It’s like the difference between a pig barn and a street in the 21st century. In some ways, it seems to be better than modern times.

I glanced at it and said.

“If there is another good place, you can go there.”

“Hey, I don’t have much money, so what do you know about a restaurant? Still, there are places I want to visit.”

“where? Is this a restaurant?”

“No, it’s a dessert shop.”

… … dessert?

I never thought it would come from him.

“Do you sell meat pie or something?”

“Lian-sama, why can’t you separate meat from me?”

Arina sighed a little and said.

“What… … . It’s true that I’m not very interested in desserts… … .”

“If you suddenly change your taste, suspect that you are ill.”

“I don’t want to eat it, I want to give it to you, Rihanna.”

“… … To me? why?”

He’s not a very special thinker.

Arina stared at me.

“We both signed the contract, but I can’t be the only one who can get it. I will try to repay you.”

“But why dessert? Do you think I like sweets?”

“no. No, I heard that outsiders give you a gift called celebration bread. I don’t know what Rihanna likes, so I tried to spit it out.”

“… … .”

heart is grateful My heart is grateful… … .

“Do you know what celebratory bread is?”

“Isn’t it just a name for bread?”

I thought this

“Usually hitting the person who is congratulated is called congratulatory bread. It’s like a birthday cake… … .”

“… … Why do you hit the person being congratulated? Are you making up nonsense words to make fun of me now?”

“If I make fun of you, would you make fun of me like this?”

“… … No, what kind of culture do you have? I don’t quite understand.”

That’s it. The moment I looked away with that thought, I was startled by the code that appeared out of the blue. Because he’s a guy I rarely see outside.

[DT-2-32-2]

It was Tanya’s code from the outside after a million years.

* * *

I don’t think I’ve ever had such an uncomfortable moment in my life.

Tanya and Arina are sitting diagonally to my left and right, respectively.

However, the location is a bit odd.

It’s like something I’ve seen in a lot of morning dramas. ‘Do you dare your bitch cheating with my husband?’ Something like sprinkling water.

“… … .”

Of course, that’s never the case.

It’s not like that at all with Arina, and Tanya… … A little bit related, but no.

So if it looks that way, it’s probably just because my brain is stuck.

“… … What would you like to order?”

asked the waiter standing next to him. He also has a strange look in his eyes whether our combination looks strange. I wanted to say it was a misunderstanding, but I didn’t know what the misunderstanding was, so I just kept my mouth shut.

Wouldn’t it be like this if only awkward co-workers gathered together and set up a dinner party?

I looked to the right and asked.

“Arina, can you cook meat?”

“yes. I don’t like the fact that Rihanna’s bias is being reinforced.”

“Tanya, can you be vegetarian?”

“… … yes.”

After collecting opinions, I finished ordering mine as well. The waiter glances at me slightly and leaves. 아마 여자 둘 끼고 노는 놈팡이 같은 새끼라 생각했나 보다. It’s not like that.

He let out a small sigh and opened his mouth.

“Are you two seeing each other for the first time today? say hello at once This is Tanya, who lives with me, and that is Arina, the priest of Kitan.”

“Do you live together?”

Arina’s eyes widened. It’s a misleading choice of words. I added quickly.

“You’ve been there too. I also met Darin. Our mansion must be bigger than any temple. Even though we live in the same house, there are many days when we don’t see each other.”

“… … Have you been home?”

This time, Tanya’s eyes widened. That’s the face of a gold rush. You’ll actually hear it for the first time. It has nothing to do with him, so I never really talked about it.

“Once two years ago. There were some things that had to do with the temple.”

“I see… … .”

“yes.”

“… … .”

And no word was spoken to the table until the food was served. Earlier, the waiter served and smiled. He must have realized that it wasn’t what he thought it was.

When that bastard goes out, he unconditionally puts a complaint in it.

“Hmm… … .”

Arina cut the meat and looked at me and Tanya in turn.

“Are you two like that?”

Tanya’s shoulders tremble. I glanced at it and said it clearly.

“no.”

“The atmosphere is a bit… … .”

“It’s just that we had a fight recently and it’s awkward. I don’t care, I’m reconciled Right?”

As she turned her gaze to the question, Tanya trembled.

“uh? Oh yes. It’s okay now.”

“Uh… … .”

Arina put the meat in her mouth and looked back at us in turn. He even shrugged his shoulders.

“Well, then it doesn’t matter. Aren’t you eating?”

“I have to.”

There was no conversation between meals. Still, silence is less awkward than waiting for food. You just have to focus on eating. Earlier, when we were just staring at each other, I thought we were pretending that nothing went in.

Arina, who emptied the plate first, patted her stomach with a happy face.

“Oh, it was good. So can I ask you a real question now?”

“Are you talking about the contract? You told me everything before.”

“No, that’s it.”

Arina smiled slightly as she saw Tanya plucking the salad with a fork.

“The two of you really signed something.”

“… … Why are you so curious about that?”

“There is no relationship, but two young people cannot live together. Even if it feels like a dorm rather than a home. Just curious?”

I sighed and put down the knife. It’s definitely a good subject for gossip writing. The reality is very different.

“I told you to come home first. I stumbled across it two years ago while passing by.”

“Two years ago, there were a lot of cases like that. So now Rian-sama’s house is turned into an orphanage?”

“… … That’s not it. I just happened to step on him.”

“It’s a coincidence… … .”

Arina seemed to be contemplating something, then turned her gaze to Tanya. He was forking at an empty plate.

“Did you say Tanya-sama?”

“… … By the way?”

“Have you ever confessed?”

Clap!

The fork and plate collided, making a loud noise. Tanya raises her head with a surprised face. I was also confused as well. I thought he was quick-witted, but is he looking at the past?

Arina looked at the two of us alternately and clasped her chin with a puzzled expression.

“I’m sorry. It was just a joke, you take it too seriously. Shall we stop when we finish eating?”

“right.”

It was Tanya who spoke out of nowhere. The guy lowered his eyebrows and glared at Arina slightly.

“I was right when I confessed.”

“… … .”

Arina stared at Tanya and released her hand that was holding her chin.

“… … Well. I’m really sorry. I didn’t want this kind of atmosphere. I accidentally spit bullshit.”

“I don’t know if it’s a real mistake or an intentional mistake, but I’ll ask you what happened.”

Tanya knocked. He put the fork down and said.

“Are you doing this because you like Rihanna too?”

“… … .”

The two looked at each other and didn’t say anything for a while.

I was half stunned and looked at the scene.

Why did it suddenly become a real morning drama?

First of all, I wanted to rectify the atmosphere. Because the things that just went into the stomach haven’t been mixed yet. I looked at Tanya and said calmly.

“Stop being weird. Because it looks like Arina made a mistake. Apologize and let’s end it.”

“… … why?”

It was Arina who answered. Then he removes his gaze from each other and turns to me, but his face is full of doubts.

“Why? You’re joking a little over the line.”

“No, not that… … .”

Big eyes blink. His lips twitched a few times as if hesitating, then opened slightly and asked me.

“… … What’s weird about it if I like Rihanna-sama?”
