Chapter 46: 46

Chapter 46

“I never groped you! No, I could have fumbled at it a little, but that’s not what I meant…”

The words he spewed out to make excuses were just fueling it more.

“Then, what is this hand? Did I grab the one that was placed neatly on the table?”

Saying so, Holly glanced at the man with narrow eyes and waved the arm she was holding.

“No, that…”

He was already convicted. The cook, who had been watching the situation with wide-open eyes, crossed over to the guest seat with a pan. He snorted and glared at the blonde man. From the moment the cook saw her eat not only his words but the food he made, his liking for her skyrocketed.

“It’s ridiculous to say that I’m a molester! What do you see me as…!”

Even though the man twisted his body violently and expressed his regret, he was already a molester. In response to the intensified defiance, sturdy men emerged from among the onlookers and grabbed the blonde man’s arm instead.

Holly greeted them and rubbed her stiff hand.

“Are you okay?”

As he asked her, the cook put down the still-hot pan and came over to her before he asked with a worried face.

“It’s okay. It’s just a little uncomfortable.”

“Don’t worry, everyone here is a witness. I will show him a taste of justice even if you do not step forward.”

The cook clenched his fists, saying that he would definitely do it. Her trust went to the tight fist.

“Then, may I go first? I have work to do…”

If possible, Holly wanted to put the man in prison with his own hands though she wanted to go around and ask about her parents and go back to Cahill. In addition, she wanted to leave this town after fully confirming that they were not here.

It was uncomfortable to keep running into the blonde man.

“That man, please don’t let him roam freely for today at least.”

“Of course!”

She took a last glance at the blonde man before leaving. He was struggling to free himself from the men who held him.

Seeing his glimmering eyes, Holly hurriedly left in case they met eyes.

“I was just trying to steal your wallet… no, I was thinking of giving that wallet back eventually. It’s true—!”

The man’s continued cry of claiming innocence came from behind. However, the more he opened his mouth, the more the restraint became tighter as if he had fallen into a swamp.

The cook, who had been watching Holly leave safely, approached him.

“It looks like you haven’t heard of the guards in Green Village. I’ll show you the spicy taste.”

As the guards who had just been contacted were approaching with their armor rattling, the blonde man’s face turned pale.

The eyes of the people in the restaurant were focused on one place. A window seat with a good view outside where two men with blindingly white skin sat facing each other.

Their unique appearance was mysterious yet beautiful enough to make people sigh even in the eyes of the people here, who have high standards of beauty. The two of them didn’t even move, looking at each other.

Thanks to that, they looked like a well-drawn masterpieces, so people’s eyes kept going to them.

“It is very rude to sigh in front of people.”

The strange silence was broken by Cahill’s sigh. He glanced at the sky blue-haired man teaching him in a calm tone, then knocked his upper body onto the table.

“I know very well that you are not my etiquette teacher.”

He murmured as he lay face down on the table, not even making eye contact with him. The man sitting across from him nodded his head with a face that said, “That’s right.”

‘Is Holly doing well?’

As he thought so, Cahill rolled his eyes, looking for her shadow in the busily passing people outside the window.

‘She’s not being bullied by someone else, is she?’

While she seemed to regard Cahill as a child to be protected, he rather felt that she was like brittle ice and always cared about her.

‘She’s surprisingly tough.’

Not only that she did not give up even in difficult situations and used her wisdom several times to escape, but even though she couldn’t even use magic, she started a fire with just a few clicks and made delicious food.

In addition, even in bed, she endured him several times and did not break. Rather, there were times when she urged him as she first tightened her bottom. She was still active the next day after overlapping their bodies all night, too.

‘It was good that I followed her.’

Cahill was satisfied to accompany her. He wasn’t talking about sleeping with her.

These days, when he was flirting, Holly’s reaction was better. When he showed his feelings, she rolled her eyes. No matter how many times he saw her red cheeks, he never got tired of it.

A soft smile spread across his lips as he recalled Holly. She had a bewitching smile that could make him feel the heat. Meanwhile, the man’s eyes narrowed as he stared helplessly at the side of Cahill’s face.

At that moment, as Cahill jumped up, the man’s head turned upwards as well, following him.

“If you don’t have anything to say, I’ll go.”

Hearing the words he spat out, the man looked out with a troubled expression. It was still bright.

“Please drag out the time.”

The voice of a colleague who had asked for it over and over again came to his mind.

‘But, what am I supposed to do?’

Except for the greetings he gave Cahill, he had nothing to say. They just moved from the cafe to the restaurant and ate while the blue-haired man still didn’t even know why he had to. When he turned his head again with a complicated mind, the spot was already empty.

“…This should be long enough.”

In the first place, he had no reason to listen to his colleague’s instructions. The man lifted the cup from the table and took a sip of the unknown tea. It didn’t taste good.

Holly sat at the bar and watched the owner polishing the glass.

It was the last store she went to. A variety of liquor bottles were displayed on the shelf behind the owner. It seemed to operate as a cafe during the day and a pub at night.

Inside her fist was a horribly crumpled sketch.

She was told that her parents weren’t seen here either. After all, it seemed that they had not come to the Green Village.

Holly sipped her drink with a rather cool heart. And she was just about to stand up, the owner, who had gone away for a while, returned and set down a new glass in front of her. It was a cocktail layered in two colors, each of which had a foreboding color to the viewer.

“I didn’t order this?”

“The person over there gave it to you.”

Holly asked, and the owner with a fine white beard pointed somewhere. As she followed his hand and turned her head, a man was sitting in the corner, waving his hand at her. The man had a shadow over his nose so that only his lips could be seen. Still, her eyes narrowed at the familiar silhouette.

Her eyes widened as the man got up and approached.

“How are you here?”

She gave a shocked voice.

It was the blonde man who was taken away by the guards and was supposed to be in prison, yet he reappeared before her eyes.

Holly glared at him with tired eyes.

“Are there places that someone with feet cannot go?”

His tone was so calm and quiet that it was hard to believe that he was a man who screamed in anger after being captured by people. While the smile on his face made him feel menacing, truthfully, his eyes weren’t smiling at all.

Holly rolled her eyes without him noticing, checking the exit. However, coincidentally, to get out of here, she had to pass him.

“Why are you doing this to me?”

Feeling hopeless, she asked while frowning. How many times had she run into the same man in an unfamiliar place? She couldn’t help but think of this as malicious bullying.

“You mean that drink? Let’s just say it means an apology.”

The man gave a simple answer to the broad question.

‘Apology…?’

She didn’t believe it at all. All the more because he insisted he was innocent until the last moment she saw him.

“I will be grateful to you, but I don’t think I can drink it.”

“Why?”

The man asked insistently.

“I can’t drink.”

Holly naturally lied. The cocktail he handed over as an apology was named ‘Devil’s Kiss.’ The name was given to mean that if you drink it, your soul will be taken away by the devil. Because of that, she had no idea what the man was trying to do to her.

“Then we don’t have to drink, what if we talk?”

When the man approached her with an indifferent face, Holly backed away as he approached.
