Chapter 1071

#Side Story 40. The Dragon Bride competing for love (2)

* * *

Seven princesses.

Three disciples.

And the two fairies too.

Origin, ability, and personality.

Although they are all different, they all have something in common.

It was that they were all Limon’s brides and that they loved him more than anything.

Even if I don’t see him for just a day, I feel regretful, and while I’m doing other things, I keep thinking about him and feel happy just by meeting him.

It’s better than poison.

If you want to quit, you can’t quit.

The more I repeat, the deeper I fall into it.

It was an extremely lethal drug itself.

…Even more so in the sense that not only my mind but also every single cell of my body was tamed by him.

In that sense, the time with him that they can only get for one day after waiting for over 10 days is the ultimate happiness for them.

It was like an oasis in the desert that could not be compromised even if hundreds of millions of dollars were paid.

“White sister, dictator sister. “What on earth are you planning?”

“What do you mean? I’m willing to give up my brother a little for everyone’s sake.”

“You want me to just believe that?”

“why? “Is that so strange?”

“Rather, I’m curious why you think it won’t be strange.”

That was why.

The reason why Yuna-kyung looked at the two silver-white girls with gloomy eyes without knowing it.

The other princesses, including Maia, who was full of cynicism, and her students, as well as the mother-in-law and bride, tilted their heads in the same way.

Even if Catherine, a self-proclaimed crazy bitch, had said this on her own, I would have doubted her intentions.

Since even Ainsha was going along with that nonsense, there was no way that there wasn’t a hidden ulterior motive.

“There’s no doubt about it. “Because we also have conditions that we want.”

“Conditions… do you mean?”

“huh.”

It seems like he anticipated that suspicion.

Catherine spread two fingers with a smile on her face.

“?2 hours a day, every day.”

“….”

“Give your brother just that much. “Then we won’t go near you at any other time.”

“…I will give up two days on the 12th, so do you mean to ask for two hours out of 24 hours in return?”

“Okay, this is a fair deal, right?”

“….”

Looking at Catherine shrugging her shoulders.

Hasneti and other priests made reflexive calculations.

As the number of brides in Limon increased, everyone was disappointed that their turn was delayed.

Whatever your intentions.

It’s nice to see the number of competitors decreasing.

The problem is that in return, you have to give up 2 hours of your allotted day.

It was a shame not to be able to occupy his entire day, but if you count the gains and losses, it was at least not a loss.

…that is, in general cases.

“That’s ridiculous nonsense.”

“What are you talking nonsense?”

“I am saying that your proposal is fair.”

“Hmm, you can only play with your brother once every ten days, so you’re saying it’s unfair for us to play with him every day?”

“It’s not that trivial.”

That was why.

The reason Charlotte snorted.

Because she was able to see through the crucial flaw in Catherine’s proposal at a glance.

“Your proposal only works on the premise that my beast will no longer have more brides.”

“…!”

“Sure…”

As if that idea never occurred.

While the other princesses, students, and even the Fairy Queen nodded in agreement.

Limon hesitantly opened his mouth.

“…How on earth do you look at me and say things like that?”

“Uh, it’s …. Do you have a bride -in -law that doesn’t block a woman who comes from other worlds, whether it’s a disciple, a pet or mother -in -law?”

“….”

He was contemplating whether to feed chestnuts to the blue bird who spoke so rudely about its open mouth, and sighed when he saw the other priests agreeing with him.

Even if there were ten mouths, there was nothing to object to.

Even more so when you think about the reactions of those women who were completely liberated after bringing in a new bride from a parallel world.

“Well, if you’re that worried, I’ll readjust the time allocation to accommodate the increasing number of brides.”

“They seem to be giving in quite obediently.”

“Because we were the ones who requested the deal in the first place. “I have to give up this much.”

While the other brides were considering the proposals of Catherine and Ainsha in front of him, who watched with his mouth shut.

A calm voice was heard.

“Ainsha Catherine. “Why don’t you just be honest?”

“Be honest, what?”

“Well, there are a lot of things to point out…”

While sitting in the wheelchair.

A black-haired girl who was quietly watching them.

Li Qingyu continued speaking with a calm smile as always.

“If I had to give an example, it would be about the mysterious research that you two are investing a huge amount of money and manpower in these days.”

“…huh? Research? What research? “I don’t understand the English sentence?”

It seems like there is nothing to guess.

Catherine tilted her head.

That impenetrable skin is truly an iron wall.

It was enough to make even the princesses, who had grown suspicious after hearing Li Qingyu’s words, momentarily wonder if she had done something wrong.

“All right. To confess. We have developed a new technology this time. So I decided to make this proposal.”

“Ainsha?!”

…Until the expression of an expressionless white-haired girl reveals all of her true feelings.

Ainsha spoke bluntly to her, who had a shocked expression on her face, like an emperor of an ancient empire who had been betrayed by the archwitch he trusted.

“I said it from the beginning. It’s impossible to hide it anyway. “I will embroider even now and find light.”

“No, but…!”

“If I hold on any longer, it will only lead to further embarrassment. “I take it when I can.”

“….”

Catherine closed her mouth.

It wasn’t just that he couldn’t break the argument of his younger brother whom he loved so much.

Because I realized it.

Looking at the transparently shining eyes.

The fact that if I hold on any longer, all I can gain is loss, not gain.

And, as a sister or a dragon, she was not foolish enough to ignore the words of her brother, the world’s greatest prophet.

“Chiit, okay. “You can be honest.”

“…What kind of new technology have you developed that makes you do this?”

Looking at the resigned Catherine.

Rose couldn’t hide her wonder.

The reason he gathered all the brides, including other princesses, and made this absurd proposal was because he had to create at most one new technology.

Considering that they were all Absolute class, it was something that did not make common sense.

“Well, it’s not a particularly great skill.”

As if confirming that suspicion.

After slightly shrugging his shoulders.

Catherine snapped her fingers.

Then, Kana and Tata, who were waiting, brought an object covered with a cloth and placed it on the round table where they were sitting.

He said as he removed the cloth.

“?At best, it’s a time machine.”

* * *

It was static.

It was a suspicion.

It was chaos.

From those who doubted whether they heard correctly to those who were shocked and did not understand what was being said.

While everyone is frozen in their own emotions.

In the end, the first thing to break the silence was one embarrassing voice.

“…Are you saying this is a device that can turn back time?”

Because of her position and her complicated position as the bride and mother-in-law, I have been watching quietly until now.

However, as a descendant of the fairy race who is more proficient in cutting-edge technology than anyone else, he inadvertently intervenes in response to the Fairy Queen’s question.

Catherine answered.

“No, it’s not that kind of time machine.”

“…?”

“This is a rather special barrier.”

“Barrier… you mean?”

“huh.”

The technological prowess of the Silver Dragon clan.

A spell accumulated by the Continental Guardians.

The magic of an adult drawn from the White Dragon Clan.

Know-how gained while making GOD brand products.

Results obtained while researching Santa Maria’s star drive.

Above all, it is a sculpture containing his power that he received from Limon by being cute.

Even though she was a genius, she had put it all together, and after repeated trials and errors, the result was achieved through truly miraculous luck.

Catherine said triumphantly.

“A barrier that embodies, to a limited extent, our clan’s time manipulation abilities.”

“…!”

“The name is love and lust…!”

Pow!

“Kkuek!”

“It’s not that name. “Don’t change your name arbitrarily.”

A white-haired girl who knocked Catherine to the ground with a punch too powerful to be anything other than a punch to the solar plexus.

Ainsha looked away.

“Let me explain. This barrier is the ‘room of time and mind.’”

A snow globe with a small mansion inside a fist-sized crystal sphere.

It looks like an ordinary souvenir, except that it is made particularly elaborately.

However, he said with an expressionless face as he looked at the device, which was actually the culmination of fairy technology and humanity’s magical dragon psionics.

“?It is a barrier that turns one hour into a day.”

“…!”

….

…….

There are too many romantic enemies.

Not enough time with your lover.

However, the enemies are too formidable to forcefully steal time.

[Question: What can I do in this situation to spend more time with my lover?]

[Answer: Make time with a time machine.]

To be honest.

That’s a stupid idea.

No, it was an idea that any fool or dreamer in the world would be able to complete just by imagining it, something that would be truly insane.

But in fact, Catherine, a self-proclaimed crazy bitch, actually tried that absurd thing…

and succeeded.

There was support from Ainsha.

Because they are the Silver Dragon clan that controls time.

Above all, it was a miracle that was possible because she was the greatest genius of the Seven Dragons.

“…This is the first time that the saying that there is a difference between a genius and a fool, just a page of paper, has struck me so keenly.”

“I have heard that genius and madness are two sides of the same coin…”

“Either way, it seems to be true.”

A mansion covered in white snow.

Compared to the headquarters or palace of the Seven Dragons, it feels small and simple.

However, they were impressed by the space, which was too large to be used as a vacation home, as it had dozens of rooms and a large garden.

I was skeptical until I heard the explanation.

It was truly amazing that such a space was actually contained within that small crystal ball.

This is especially true in the sense that if you spend a day here, only an hour will pass outside.

“Oh my god. “I never imagined that it would be possible to apply time acceleration, which was both an advantage and disadvantage of the star drive system, in this way.”

“Hehehe, admire it a lot. “It’s a masterpiece from this genius.”

Unlike her younger sister, Na-kyung Yu did not dare call Catherine, who showed off her voluptuous chest, arrogant.

Star Drive is the last legacy of the Fairy Race that even the Fairy Queen could not learn.

It wasn’t enough to modify it and develop the World Gate, to even create a barrier like this.

It was easy to understand why Catherine was a genius.

But that was only until then.

What she could boast about.

“indeed…. So, you were trying to get time with the swordsman while pretending to give us the turn?”

“…!”

“In the end, so that you two can monopolize the time you can spend with the swordsman?”

While other priests only spend time with him once every ten days.

They spend 48 hours a day with Limon, making good use of the two hours they have been given in this ‘room of time and mind’.

Little by little.

Grow a place in his heart.

Did you ultimately intend to monopolize all love?

The moment when Li Qingyu spoke with a grinning face as if it was a truly admirable plan.

The air got colder.

Catherine flinched when she felt the admiring gaze directed at her cool down for an instant.

He rolled his eyes again and again as if he was looking for a place to run away, but eventually realized that there was no way out and instead screamed loudly as if he was yelling at his stomach.

“why? what! What’s wrong! “I’m going to use what I created!”

“It means that there was actually such a desire.”

“…Oops.”

When Catherine, who ended up committing suicide in a grand manner, broke into a cold sweat.

Ainsha, who was looking at her as if she was pitiful, opened her mouth expressionlessly.

“Don’t be so angry. “I was already planning on sharing it.”

“You want me to believe that?”

“I believe it. “Anyway, if I use this with Lee, it will be revealed. It’s a fool to think I can hide it forever.”

“That’s right, but…”

“Then why did you hide the truth and make this suggestion?”

“This is because ‘Room of Time and Mind’ is still unfinished.”

Ainsha explained.

Since the Room of Time and Mind was created based on the psionics of time manipulation, it of course requires Yekatrice to operate it.

Because it is overloaded, it can only be used for about 12 hours a day at most.

And the moment I heard those words.

They realized.

The reason why the two girls made this suggestion in the first place, hiding the information about this space, which would be revealed when used together with Limon.

“…Do you really mean that this space cannot be used indefinitely?”

“We were trying to gain an upper hand by trading first in order to slightly increase the stake to use that limited time.”

“That means…”

The voice gradually lowers.

And the air becomes heavier.

Finally everyone realized and understood.

However, the most arrogant princess spoke without hesitation about the unspeakable truth.

“It means that from now on we will have to fight among ourselves for the right to use this space.”

“…!”

That moment.

Yuna-kyung stiffened.

It wasn’t just that the truth had become clear.

When Charlotte opened her mouth, I felt the atmosphere becoming more serious than before.

It’s like….

‘?From now on, kill each other.’

As if I had heard the words…
