What the Hero Wanted Was Me

Episode 23

Chapter 23.

On Lenny’s body, there were traces of Shiana’s coming and going.

“This is not…”

I saw my body reflected in the mirror. There were several red dots on the neck, like mosquito bites, and occasionally teeth marks.

Tears flowed from my eyes as I was deprived of my innocence. Very little.

‘I wish I had remembered.’

It was very unfair because I felt responsible without pleasure. No matter how busy I am, sleeping with Siana, who had a s*xual desire and was one of the best in appearance, was rather good for me.

I was afraid of her butterfly effect, so I thought to avoid her for a while and changed her clothes.

“Can’t you see this?”

I checked in a mirror to see if I was wearing a polar tee that covered my neck to hide my kiss marks. Fortunately, there was nothing to be seen if not noticed. Except for being Polati in mid-autumn.

‘By the way, where did you get that rose?’

As I pondered, I remembered the bottle holding the white roses that had been displaced the other day. Did you break into my room?

My stereotypes about elves changed within me due to a plan that was more sophisticated than I could have imagined.

A pure elf, a friend of the forest. It was Siana who had vehemently distanced herself from the elf I thought of.

“Now I have to cut the roses..”

I thought about quitting the scent of roses, which gives the best sleep efficiency in a short period of time, but it was hard to do because I knew that I had already fallen to the level of addiction.

I sighed and despaired of this grim situation. Shia I know that when I sleep, she will come to visit me again. She sat down in her chair, thinking of a way out of the endless loop.

Lenny showed no signs of getting up from the chair.

•••

Since I had a relationship with Sianna, the day and night have changed several times, but my eyes have never been closed for more than an hour. All of this was due to Siana’s pressure.

“Aren’t you sleeping today?”

Siana always made sure I was sleeping whenever I felt drowsy. I couldn’t fall asleep because it was clear that if I tried to fall asleep, I would do the same thing I did the other day.

“Lenny are you okay..?”

“It’s okay..”

Arya, who saw my face after not sleeping for several days, said that her eyes were bloodshot, and she worried about me. After all, there was only Aria.

“That’s why, butler. You should lie down on the bed and rest…”

After watching Lenny sleep for several days, Eren interrupted Aria and Lenny’s conversation. Arya, of course, didn’t like that.

“Can’t you see we’re talking among ourselves? Don’t interrupt and go on your way.”

To Eren-She was Arya, who grumbled and was wary. Instead of getting better, their relationship got worse. Did the two of you fight where I can’t see you?

“No, I didn’t?”

“I will no longer be fooled by the words of the dirty warrior..!”

Aria, who believed Sarah’s words, did not believe Eren’s words anymore. It happened because Eren’s trust was lower than that of Sera, whom she had never seen before.

“Again, what happened…”

I put my tiredness behind and started to hear about the reasons they fought.

In conclusion, this was it.

Aria interrogates Eren, saying, ‘You did it!’

‘I didn’t do it!’ Eren retorts.

‘Don’t lie! You did it! She asked Eren again.

‘There were other people besides me who fell into the bounds of infinity’

They were roaring at each other in a never-ending fight. Until one person turns their back.

“I don’t know..”

Away from my current situation due to fatigue, I decided to head to a place where I could take a break. In this state, there was no need for white roses.

“Uh..Where are you going..!”

“Where is Lenny going..! The hero just came to me..”

I heard Eren and Aria shouting at me, but I didn’t have time to look back, so I quickly left my seat, and in the meantime, I could still hear the girls fighting. I didn’t know.

After getting away from them like that, I was walking, wondering if there was anything that would wake me up.

‘Won’t a red rose wake you up?’

Because I was mentally exhausted, I had strange thoughts. A red rose was a way to cross the line. Meanwhile, a voice came from below me.

“Hey… Are you okay…?

In front of my eyes, Laysha was looking up at me. The shortest of the women, she had to look down.

“Hello, Holy Lady..”

My appearance looked very haggard, so Laysha, who was usually wary of me, started talking to me as if worried.

“Do you have any uncomfortable places…? You look so tired…”

‘Wouldn’t it be possible if it was a saint..?’

I asked Laysha with high expectations.

“Could you please revitalize your body?”

If that was possible, I could live my life without feeling fear from Siana. Laysha answered, as if she had noticed that expectation.

“That…It’s not that grandiose, it just gives the body strength temporarily…? It’s possible to do something like that.”

Laysha, who was better at buffing than healing, was able to buff others. Because of that, she was able to catch Eren easily because of her presence when he captured the demon king, and she could be said to be an indispensable presence in the warrior’s party.

“Then, even if it’s a buff, please…! Bet on me..!”

I started begging Laysha for the first time in my life.

“What..What are you doing..! Let go of this..!!”

I held her arm and shook it until she said that she would buff her. Then, after a few minutes, the word came out of her mouth that she would do it.

“I’ll do it… I’ll do it…! I’ll give you a buff…!”

“…”

I removed her hand from her as if something had just happened and waited for Laysha to apply her buff.

“Instead of that..! I have a condition!”

Laysha gasped as if she were tired of me holding and shaking herself. She was Laysha, who looked physically problematic no matter how you looked at it. I asked her what her condition was.

“One gem per buff..”

I could have expected what she would say even after listening to it, so I walked away ignoring the sound behind her.

I felt again that dealing with Laysha was detrimental to my mental health, and I wandered the hallways looking for somewhere to rest.

‘Not here…’

I was looking for a place that no one would know about while wandering around, but there was no such place in the mansion. Should I accept my fate like this? With that in mind, I returned to my room.

She sat down on the bed and tried to drive away the drowsiness. Why am I so stressed out about sleeping? Even on vacation, can’t you enjoy it?

In the midst of a mixture of resentment and a little anger, my door opened and I saw an unexpected person.

ㅡKikiiik..

“Sarah…?”

Sera, the wizard of the warrior party, came to my room. Why? She thought about why she would come to see me, but she couldn’t come up with anything in particular.

“Deacon. Hello.”

Sera seemed to have something to say to me as she calmly asked what was going on.

She said, “I heard she doesn’t sleep. Is that true?”

Sarah had thought of this as a golden opportunity as she had less of her attention on Lenny because she had put Eren and Arya up in a fight. But Lenny suddenly stopped sleeping.

‘Why aren’t you sleeping?’

Seeing him not even using the white rose she used often, Sera failed to catch her timing and was unable to make Lenny her own.

“Yeah, it happened that way…”

From Sarah’s point of view, it wasn’t strange that Lenny collapsed any minute, and she was heartbroken to see Lenny like that, but Sarah put down her ugly feelings and wanted to put her Lenny to sleep somehow.

“May I ask why you’re not sleeping?”

Sarah, in an unusually polite tone, asked Lenny why he was not sleeping. She had to solve it because this she herself could win Lenny.

‘What is it?’

Lenny was suspicious of the current situation. Sera, who is usually not interested in herself, comes to me and suddenly shows interest?

‘Something suspicious.’

Since it was rare for an emotionless Sera to move, Lenny thought that the current situation might be a trap set by Shiana.

‘Hmm.. Why are you so wary..?’

Sarah didn’t know that Lenny knew the inside story, so she just wondered how wary she was.

‘There’s no reason to be wary of me.’

Unaware that she was guarding herself, Sarah’s gaze was focused on Lenny’s collared tee.

A neck pole in mid-autumn? It was a very suspicious situation.

“Excuse me.”

She knew it was her rudeness, but Sera, feeling that this was the key to the case, rushed at Lenny and slightly lowered her clothes around her neck.

“This… This…”

Lenny was talking to me in bewilderment as to whether the kiss marks left on her neck were embarrassing or embarrassing.

“This is a mosquito bite..!”

Lenny’s voice was no longer heard by Sarah.

ㅡ beep

Sarah felt tinnitus ringing in her ears, and she felt the emotions that had sprouted within her blossom.

“Which b*tch touched my Lenny..?”

Greed and anger.

Sera had two feelings, and Leni was confused when she saw them.

‘Is that smoke too..?’

It was Lenny who woke her from sleep because it was too realistic to be her acting.

“Who did it?”

“Yes..?”

“Who said this?”

Sera was more emotional than ever.
