I Possessed the Heroine’s Teacher

Chapter 125



Recently, I had so many worries that I felt like my hair was going to fall out. The secret of my birth, the Black Round Table, Raven Peony, and even my older brother and sister who were visiting today… If I lived like this for a week, I’d have to ask for advice at a hair loss forum.

“Husband, it seems that you have some concerns?”

Yeah, it’s rude to think about other topics during a date. The gentlemanly blood flowing in me wouldn’t allow any disrespect to a lady.

By the way, her outfit for the date—a white shirt and black pants—was very much her. When you think about it, since she declared she would take on the head of the family position, she probably wore more pants than skirts from that moment on. For her, who was originally an indecisive half-hearted person, reaching this level of success must have required that much effort.

“No, it’s nothing, let’s just continue.”

Today, at her request, we decided to have a more modest date. For someone who had lived her whole life in a snow-covered castle, a modest lifestyle was like a fantasy to her. It was probably like how rich kids in dramas get obsessed with tteokbokki(popular and cheap Korean food made from small-sized rice cake noodles and spicy soup). Honestly, a modest scene in a medieval fantasy world didn’t seem all that appealing to me.

But if it was the kind of fantasy that Glacies wanted, there was no helping it.

First, we needed to eat, so I took her to a restaurant. To prevent any annoying flies from bothering us because of Glacies’s looks, I decided to take her to a slightly more secluded restaurant. If I searched my memories of Werner’s experiences, I knew there were some good, cheap local restaurants that served better food than fancy high-end ones, but most of them were located in dark alleys.

If we went to those kinds of places, annoying flies would swarm, and a fight would probably break out. Oh, and did young Werner never get into trouble at such places?
Of course, I did. It wasn’t a place for a kid like me, so I would tell them to leave everything they had and go away. But those guys would all end up spending a long time in a hospital bed because of the magic I threw.

“Welcome!”

A kindly-looking woman greeted us. Since this was a family-oriented restaurant, I thought there wouldn’t be any annoying flies or trouble here.

“Excuse me, could we sit by the window, away from the crowd?”

I said, handing her a silver coin. I hated sitting in the noisy center.

The restaurant lady, now smiling even more warmly after receiving the coin, cleared a table by the window and guided us there.

Glacies began examining the menu with a curious look. To her, who had only been to high-end restaurants that listed only the day’s courses or the restaurant’s specialties, a place with dozens of menu items must have been overwhelming.

“There are so many options, it’s a bit confusing…”

Glacies was carefully examining each item on the menu as if studying it.

At this rate, I thought we would end up eating a late-night snack rather than lunch.

“Would you like me to choose, if it’s too much?”

“Yes… I’ve never been to a place like this before, so… it’s a bit difficult.”

Glacies, slightly blushing, looked so cute. She didn’t need to be this shy; she was just unfamiliar with the situation. I smiled and called the waiter. The waiter hurried over.

“Yes, sir, what would you like to order?”

“Let’s start with the tomato chicken soup, and then fried oysters, salmon carpaccio, a calzone with four kinds of cheese and spinach, an omelet with pâté, and for the main course, a pork schnitzel and a bowl of vongole with plenty of clams.”

“Husband, I think the portions might be a bit… much for just the two of us.”

Yes, the portions were a bit much for just the two of us. But it wasn’t a problem.

“And for this lady, the same tomato chicken soup, eggplant fritters stewed in tomato sauce, grilled scallops, and for the main course, a sirloin steak.”

The items I had just ordered were all for me. I hadn’t had breakfast since I was in a hurry to get to work, so I was extremely hungry.

“Your order will take a little while; is that alright?”

I handed the waiter two silver coins.

“One is for the chef. Tell him we’re a bit busy.”

Glacies stared at me with a stunned expression.

“Do you think you can eat all that…?”

“Well, I tend to skip meals or eat light when I’m in uncomfortable situations… but when I’m in a comfortable setting, I eat to my heart’s content.”

“Comfortable setting?”

I answered with the kindest smile I could muster.

“Yes, for example, when I’m eating alone… or when I’m with someone who makes me feel at ease… if the conditions are right, I tend to let go and eat freely. It’s hard to eat like this in front of uncomfortable or awkward people.”

Glacies avoided my gaze. Perhaps she felt a bit shy since I had mentioned that I find comfort with people who make me feel at ease. I had only been trying to express closeness in my own way. Not only her, but also Iris, Baek Jong-won, Camellia, Lorcha, and others, when eating, had faces that showed ease and comfort.

After a moment, Glacies’s face turned even redder as she continued to avoid my eyes. Before I could get too intrigued, the food arrived quicker than expected, probably thanks to the tip.

“Here are the dishes you ordered!”

The food, freshly prepared and steaming, looked very appetizing. The soup full of meat, the fried oysters with a delicious aroma, the hearty-smelling calzone, and the large steak.

“Then, let’s eat.”

“Yes…”

It seemed that Glacies was still recovering from the shock of what I had just said. She mistakenly grabbed the knife and fork in the wrong hand and hurriedly corrected herself.

As expected, the taste was excellent. The flavor was hearty, with a rich amount of oil and salt, but it had its own charm. Glacies seemed to think the same as she ate quite a large portion of food.

“Sigh… When we go back, I’ll have to eat only salad and lean meats for a while.”

It seemed like Glacies was very strict about managing her weight. If Iris had heard this, she would probably sneer and say it was such a pity that she could eat all the fried food and meat without gaining weight. And there would be a 99.99% chance of a catfight breaking out.

“You’re already beautiful, so is there really a need for that?”

“Unlike my mother, who maintains her beauty no matter what she eats, I’m mixed. The other half is from my father’s side, where muscles develop just from breathing.”

Ah… That explains it. Now that I think about it, Glacies’s strong physique must have been because of that.

“We should get going soon.”

We paid for the meal and headed outside. However, once we were outside, I noticed some sauce had gotten on the right side of her lips. Hm… If I pointed this out directly, she’d definitely feel embarrassed. As a gentleman, I felt it was my duty to be considerate of the lady.

“Glacies, just a moment…”

I approached her and grabbed the back of her head, kissing her to clean the sauce off her lips. As our tongues mingled, I thought this would be enough, so I pulled away from her lips.

But to my surprise! Glacies was covering her lips with an embarrassed expression. I had been considerate, thinking she wouldn’t mind, especially since we had already gone so far before. I had assumed a kiss would be nothing to her, but if she was this shy, wasn’t that a reversal? Maybe I should have just pointed out that she had sauce on her lips.

“There are a lot of people around, so doing something like that might be a bit…”

Ah… I guess for her, doing such a thing in front of others would certainly be embarrassing. It must be like some old noble etiquette.

“Hey, that’s a nice picture.”

A voice came from behind that sounded like something a low-level thug in a cheap gangster comic might say.

“Mind your business and go your way if you don’t want to die.”

“Hahaha, I don’t think I will.”

“If you don’t like it, get married, you bastard.”

I was ready to tear them apart and send them to their wives. But just as I turned my attention away, I saw that Glacies had been grabbed by someone wearing a robe. Glacies tried to fight back, but…

“Now, now, young lady, it’s not good to use violence.”

The man in the robe snapped his fingers, and suddenly, colorful cloths wrapped around Glacies’s body.

“You bastard!”

I was ready to break his skull.

“Calm down, your opponent is not me.”

Just then, a fierce kick came from behind. I barely managed to block it, but if I hadn’t, I would have been sent flying and slammed into something. The person who ambushed me was also wearing a robe.

“You sons of bitches!”

I unleashed a powerful strike at the cowardly ambusher. However, the attack was quickly countered. The man holding my wrist quietly spoke.

“Hmm… So you put rotation into your wrist while attacking, that’s interesting.”

Though my wrist was trapped, I attempted to free myself by delivering a knee strike to his solar plexus. He pulled his body back but didn’t release my wrist.

“A knee strike… using shallow tactics.”

Well, there was no help for it. I didn’t want to get into a fight today, but these guys crossed the line first.

“Lightning, like a snake…”

“Hey, hey, stop! We might actually kill each other.”

The guy holding Glacies suddenly released her and spoke. It was too late to say anything now, and I was about to tell him I would cut their heads off when the guys who had ambushed us threw off their robes.

“Our little one’s grown a lot. Now she even knows how to curse.”

The infamous sky-thief, Squall.

“Sigh… I didn’t want to greet you this way, but you were so stubborn, so… Yeah, it’s been a long time, little one.”

The Celestial Mage, O Cheon-yeong, who conquered the Eastern continent.

“What in the world is going on here…”

I couldn’t understand the situation and stuttered. But Squall just laughed and started mocking me.

“Well, I thought just greeting you would be boring, so I made it interesting.”

At that moment, I seriously began to regret thinking that just greeting them might have been better.
