chapter 17
17 – EP.5 Butterfly Dream -2
When I was 5 years old, ‘I’ was a very pure child.
“Run! Miho!”
An innocent child who enjoys riding and playing like a horse riding on my back.
The problem was that he was so engrossed in horseback riding that he even slapped my butt.
“This is it! Run a little faster!”
How does it feel to get your ass beaten by yourself?
It must have been a dirty feeling beyond words.
However, unlike my doctor, this body was overjoyed.
As if begging for more…….
“Damn, I understand what I don’t want to understand… ….”
There was one memory that left a lasting impression when I was rolling around like crazy with Miho last night.
Because it was on the ass that could be seen in front of my eyes, I unknowingly slapped Miho’s butt.
Then Miho’s reaction at that time was so spectacular that it still lingered in my memory.
It must have been tempered since then, Miho’s mazo instinct…….
“Ah, now is not the time to think like this.”
To the end, let’s not forget to look at the past in order to understand Miho.
“Ah~! I’m sleepy now, Miho. I’ll stop playing horseback riding here.”
Unlike my doctor, who thought it was fortunate that it was finally over, my body felt sorry for me.
“Stop it now! It seems like I’m going to become a demon too… !”
I came to see the past, not to be transformed into a Mazu.
“Miho~!”
The ‘me’ of childhood calling me.
“Let’s sleep together!”
“I” Demands that they sleep together even though it is a small bed that can barely accommodate two children.
Of course, my body didn’t refuse and went into bed in response to ‘my’ request.
“hehehe… ! Miho, you are very fluffy!”
At that time, “Me” Also liked soft and fluffy things.
I don’t know what else to do, but mokomoko is the truth and justice.
As I was thinking about that, ‘I’ fell asleep soundly before I knew it.
Seeing that, I was naturally happy, and my body was also very happy.
Because I could definitely feel that he loved me.
“Is this how Miho started to really like me?”
There was still a feeling of lacking a bit.
Isn’t it enough to be liked by others? You might think, but I felt that I was lacking in myself.
Should I say that there is still a decisive shot left?
“Haa… ….”
Skipping the younger days and showing the memories of the present means that there must be a reason at this time.
Looks like I need to watch more.
***
Sorry, but no matter how much I waited, nothing special happened.
A normal daily life, normal skinship, normal companion animal and pet owner relationship.
There was no such thing as a situation where the ‘me’ of my childhood appeared dramatically and saved me in danger.
“Hey, even if you are young, Shinsoo is Shinsoo. There will be no danger in the near future.”
Just as young Tia used her abilities, this body could use her abilities as well.
When ‘my’ was hurt and crying, she used her hallucination ability to comfort her, or when she came across something she wanted, she used her materialization ability to secretly present it.
I was very happy to see ‘me’ smiling broadly and rejoicing at that time.
As if his joy was my joy.
“At this point, it’s clear. I liked Miho from the first time we met him.”
It means that he fell for me since he was a baby.
It’s absurd, but it’s not strange that I fell in love at first sight, and Miho was born at the same time as me, so in a way, it must have felt like fate.
Then why are we showing the events of this period?
I don’t think there’s any need to reminisce about the past unless there’s a special reason…….
“Miho! Look at this! It’s a rabbit!”
While I was thinking about something else for a while, a rabbit I didn’t know when I brought it was in my arms.
“So cute! It feels good that this kid is as soft and fluffy as you!”
The ‘me’ of my childhood who was delighted by rubbing my face against the rabbit.
I thought it was a sight to laugh at, but……
“Oops?!”
Suddenly, my emotions began to flow backwards to the point that I felt like I was about to turn inside out.
I am coldly staring at ‘me’ who is delighted with another animal.
It was sticky and unpleasant, and the feeling that my heart was about to split in two began to cover my entire body.
A feeling that is too cold yet sharp to be classified as jealousy.
That was the feeling I was feeling right now.
Crazy? Is this what Miho usually feels…?!
It was a runaway of emotions that would have remained even after vomiting dozens of times already.
And as if this had been passed on to the object of jealousy, the rabbit stood up all over and ran away from ‘my’ arms.
“Ah! It’s a rabbit!!”
“I” Is looking for a rabbit who left without knowing how I feel.
As I watched the scene, words full of jealousy came into my head one by one.
[Why? Why are you smiling at an animal other than me…?]
[Seobangnim always makes me happy? Only I can make you happy…?]
[I have to see Seobang’s smile, I can’t show it to anyone else… !]
[Did you see the smile of the rabbit from before? I have to find it later and kill it… !!]
I’m really going crazy…!!
It was disorienting to find out firsthand whether Miho was usually jealous with her thoughts.
It was such jealousy and obsession that the world went round and round.
“Crazy! You’re crazy!! This is crazy!! How is this without being crazy?!”
Now I think I know why I saw this scene.
Why did Miho fall in love with me?
The answer to this question has been shown since the first meeting……
How much does Miho love me?
It was showing the answer to this question instead.
To be jealous because you are in love.
However, Miho liked me enough to say that she was abnormal from the beginning, so her jealousy was crooked enough to say that it was abnormal.
“Oops… !!”
Stop it! Now stop!!
Because it’s enough!! If I feel Miho’s feelings anymore, I’m really going to lose my mind!!
“Heo Eok… ! Heo-eok… !”
When the screen went dark once and then the light came back on, fortunately I was back to my original ‘me’.
“Hey, did you enjoy the trip in your dream?”
And in front of me was Kirin, a Shinsoo I had seen in Miho’s past.
“Is this a trip? It would be more like a trip to fall from the top of a snowy mountain and roll down!”
Just as much, Miho’s jealousy was seriously ruined.
“Originally, each divine beast is out of sync somewhere, and it’s the divine beast’s rule to prevent that. But your fox wasn’t bound by the rules of divine beasts from the start.”
“Since I was born, I signed a contract with my companion, so the rules of divine beasts must not have applied.”
“Yes, the fox came to take it for granted to be with you, and the result, as now, is her boundless love and jealousy for you.”
To put it in one word, it’s because of you that Miho became like that, so take responsibility.
“I understand.”
“You must be a human young man with good understanding, chuckle!”
Contrary to the image she saw in her memories, the giraffe smiled broadly and looked like her old grandfather.
“Anyway, did you create this world?”
A giraffe silently nodding her head.
“So, is this your ability?”
“Hmm, think about that yourself.”
No comment.
“Then why did you go so far as to talk to me while using this ability?”
“I called you because I wanted to spread rumors that the other divine beasts were beginning to recognize the existence of you and your pet one by one.”
“… ….”
One of the situations I was most concerned about.
Being attacked by other divine beasts might now happen in real life.
“Radical youngsters will quickly and thoroughly try to exclude you who break the rules.”
“Did you bring me here to talk about that? Then why did you show me Miho’s past?”
“It’s kind of my entertainment, but isn’t it a good thing to know more about foxes? Chuckle!!”
I think I’ll die if I get involved in this old man’s entertainment again.
“Let’s say yes.”
I definitely got to know more about Miho.
…… Let’s be careful from now on, so as not to provoke Miho’s jealousy.
“Is the question over?”
“No, there is one more.”
“You’re a human young man with a lot of questions about the world. Let me tell you.”
“Since you are a Shinsoo who abides by the rules of the Shinsoo, shouldn’t you exclude us? Why are you helping us when you’re even showing up like this to give advice?”
“Even if divine beasts are united by rules, they are all separate entities. Each one has its own characteristics, so there are also diviners like me. Besides, I’m not here specifically to help you. I found you when I was looking for someone who listened to the old man’s nonsense.”
An obvious lie, but I learned that I can’t tell the truth.
If he admits to helping him, he will be judged as having broken the rules, and it will be dangerous.
“Okay, I won’t ask any more.”
“I apologize if the old man’s bullsh*t wasn’t funny.”
“No, it was kind of fun. Although it was very creepy at the end.”
“Chuck!! Is it! I’m glad you did.”
The divine beast’s body is beginning to fade.
It’s time for the Theater of Reminiscence to come to an end.
“If you enjoyed listening, could you grant me one last small wish?”
“I will listen and judge.”
I think it’s polite to refuse in advance if it’s something you can’t keep.
“… Can you promise to stay by your fox’s side until the end?”
As expected, this grandpa has something to do with Miho.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t try to take care of Miho this much.
“I’m thinking of doing that even if you don’t ask for it, so it’s useless to worry, grandpa.”
After all, Miho is my pet.
I intend to stay by Miho’s side even if he doesn’t ask for it.
If I’m not by Miho’s side in the first place, I’m anxious because I don’t know how he’ll run amok…….
It is a fact that I have come to know for sure through this flashback.
“I see, it’s fortunate that the time didn’t become meaningless…. Then please take care of yourself, human youth!”
A giraffe slowly dissipates into the air with a satisfied expression on its face.
He was a truly strange and mysterious grandfather.
The old man made me wonder a lot, but……
“There is no need to be impatient.”
Because the day will come when you will know everything.
“Is it time to go back to reality?”
Like that old man, my body was fading.
It will be completely out of the land of dreams.
“What should I do first when I go back?”
To the extent that I mistakenly thought I was Miho, I saw and felt Miho’s past and realized what Miho was feeling at the time.
Then…….
“It would be okay to go and give him a hug.”
There were not many happy times in Miho’s life.
About the time before my memories were erased.
The pain of being ignored and having to watch the person you like right in front of you.
This was as painful as my past.
So, I want to make her even a little bit happier as she is finally able to come into contact with her.
I want to increase the time of happiness rather than the time of suffering.
This is the feeling of ‘I’, and ‘I’ could be confident.
***
“Women?”
“Ah…… !”
Miho’s face as soon as he opens his eyes and the familiar bedroom scene.
I realized that I had come back properly.
“Are you okay? You seem to have suffered in the middle, did you have a nightmare?”
She must have felt her crazy jealousy and expressed her pain through her body.
“It’s okay, it’s no big deal.”
“But… ….”
A pet fox who always worries about me.
Previously, I thought I would, but now I know more about her.
All of Miho’s actions have made me feel lovable.
“You know, Miho. Is there anything you would like me to do?”
“What do you want the West to do for you?”
“Yes.”
Because I want to make you even a little bit happier.
“There is one thing…… I am a little hesitant.”
“Can you tell me? I’ll listen to anything now!”
“If so… ….”
Miho took something out of his fluffy-looking tail and quickly handed it to me.
I laughed involuntarily at the sight of Miho blushing as she handed it over.
“Then please take good care of me….”
“Leave it to me…. Yes?”
The identity of the object in my hand is a rope and a whip.
Things that were special were items that could not be found at all.
“Hey, what do you do with this?”
“Tie me with that rope, then beat me on the ass with a whip!!”
At some point, Miho is wagging her tail and hips with her skirt off.
It was as if he was provoking me.
“Mi, Miho?”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t stand it because the place I was hit by Seo-Bang yesterday still throbs…” ♡”
A memory from a dream passing by suddenly.
Ah!! Why did I forget that memory… !!
“Come on, Mr. Seo! Hurry up and sell Seo-Bang-sama’s pet b*tch who grew up lustful with that whip♡”
A memory from the past that I wanted to deny but could not deny.
This current situation must be my karma from the past.
Ah, f*ck!!
“Ahhhhh… ♡”
My feelings of having to slap Miho’s butt with tears in my eyes.
I hated the ‘me’ of the past.
