A Porter Kidnapped by a Wizard - A Porter Kidnapped by a Wizard chapter 9
009. Sooreum…
‘It’s futile.’
It was his impression of reading the romance novel he was holding on to until the end.
The main content of the book is that the female lead’s obsession causes the male lead to become discordant and diverge.
In the end, it ends with the generous male lead dying along with the female lead, so this may seem romantic to some… It was an ending that could have been devastating to some.
‘I understand this.’
It’s a story that can’t happen in real life.
‘Isn’t it normal for the recipient to notice this obsession early on?’
I didn’t notice much. I wonder how generous they are when they say they embrace it even if they do.
Endymion stretched her stiff body from sitting for a long time. He groaned lightly, and for some reason he felt a sting in the back of his head and looked back.
‘… Is it an illusion?’
I felt like someone was watching me.
‘It must be an illusion….’
Who else is here to watch? Selene, the only person in the mansion other than herself, was sitting at her desk and organizing her journal.
‘I’m eager.’
It was quite eye-catching when he was so absorbed. Endymion stared at her so aimlessly at her.
Ten minutes to do that… Selene, who was organizing her journal, met her eyes with him.
“Why, why are you staring at me like that?”
“It’s nice to see you working hard.”
It was an open statement. Perhaps because it was a rare compliment, Selene seemed to be speechless. However, she soon regained her composure and dismissed her nonsense.
‘Is that why you stared at me for ten minutes after reading that novel? Nonsense!’
Through her familiar, Selene accidentally read the novel he was reading until the last page.
‘It was a story that left a lasting impression on me. Although the stupid part was often noticed.’
The most important thing to note was that the content was a love story between Jang Su-jong and Dan-myeong-jong.
A long-lived species with strong power and an insignificant short-lived species.
Can’t you just substitute yourself and Endymion’s situation?
‘No way… ‘
At this point, Selene’s reasonable doubts sprouted. She honestly didn’t think that the way she brought her Endymion was too benign.
‘But they didn’t even bring out the ‘mask’ for escape….’
Of course, there were a few circumstances that made me wonder if he was trying to escape, but that was just a feeling. And even that was hardening in the direction of not anymore.
In the end, Selene had to come to a conclusion that she found hard to believe.
‘Me… Do you like it?’
Hwa-ak- A face that heats up quickly enough to be unusual. Her hands holding the journal trembled, and a faint anticipation welled up in her eyes.
“Words, nonsense…”
“Selene?”
“Huh-!”
I had a hiccup that I didn’t know I had in a few years. Surprised by that, Selene looked at Endymion with her wide eyes.
“Can I go to the bathroom?”
“Go, go and come…”
She tried to honestly say that she didn’t have to take permission for that, but she still told me to take permission and leave, as I was suspicious that she wouldn’t go out like that and do something else.
Endymion left the study at a pace that was neither slow nor fast.
As soon as he left, a quiet sigh of relief resounded in the quiet study.
“Haa…”
She doesn’t usually care about her appearance, but she likes to be neat and doesn’t mess up her hair. She’s Selene, but today she just couldn’t keep up with that attitude.
Her hair was frizzy like someone who had just woken up as Selene messed with her complicated mind.
“Isn’t it… no, isn’t it…?”
She was always the one who judged whether my thoughts were right, but in her heart, she was already inclined to what to do if it was real.
‘If it’s real… It’s getting in trouble.’
A pounding heart. I don’t know how many rough beats it’s been in a while. Selene put her hand to her chest in a strange feeling.
Thumping- Thrilling-
“…….”
It was something I couldn’t understand. It didn’t make any logical sense to be caught up in this torrent of emotions out of the blue.
Through her ears like that, the words she heard the other day passed by.
-I will… I also wanted something like this at first. I didn’t understand like you. So I denied my feelings.
-But, at some point, the thought of him didn’t go away from my head.
“…No.”
I don’t think so.
Those feelings… If not….
* * *
When Selene was in the midst of confusion, Endymion, who said he would go to her bathroom, had already passed the bathroom he wanted to go to for a long time.
He walked down a quiet hallway.
‘I need to be bold.’
I almost got caught last time and I had to save myself, but when I think about it, shouldn’t I be more active at times like this… ? I thought.
‘No matter what, you have to find a way out. I don’t have time to go looking for them unless it’s a time like now.’
It will be fine if it is not too late. Then, suddenly, the thought of Endymion crossed my mind.
‘What’s watching me… Probably not… ?’
“…No way.”
I want to be sure that it won’t happen, but the possibility of an if cannot be ignored.
‘If you’re looking at me right now… ?’
Endymion, who was walking safely through the hallway, stopped at that moment.
“I didn’t want to write…”
I don’t know if it’s going to go well because it’s been so long. Endymion moved his energy as delicately as handling a rusty machine.
Then, a different color dwells in his blue eyes. It soon shone in the dark like the eyes of a beast shining in the night.
After warming up, he turned his gaze around and began to carefully examine the surroundings.
“That’s…”
I finally found it. Huge eyeballs that I don’t know since when.
‘What is that?’
Is that the true identity of the gaze you felt every time? Endymion was more curious about where it came from than loathing the ugly eyeball creature.
‘It doesn’t even look like a ghost….’
Although it is a spirit body, it is different from the deceased who lost their body and became a spirit body inevitably. It feels like it was made that way from the beginning.
‘There is only one person who can use something like this.’
Selene, she is probably the culprit.
Nine out of ten likely. In all her honesty, it doesn’t make sense that she didn’t know that this weirdo was floating around.
‘I should have noticed right away.’
It’s the power that Endymion tightly hid, because he hid it so well.
‘I thought I would have found it, but why did I leave it untouched… ‘
Isn’t that also easily associated?
‘… To spy on me.’
When did it start? As Endymion, who had hidden his power so tightly, even to himself, he couldn’t even guess.
‘Still, if I try to guess by forcefully squeezing it… ‘
After getting caught trying to leave the mansion.
Perhaps it wasn’t from then.
“…….”
Endymion gazed at the floating eyeball with calm eyes, and suddenly noticed that there was something like a fine solid line behind the eyeball.
And the line seemed to lead to somewhere in the mansion along a long corridor.
‘Maybe… It must be the study where Selene is.’
It’s obvious without looking at it. Endymion frowned as if he was in trouble and pondered over what to do with the original plan.
‘It’s okay to go back.’
How, is there no other way? At that moment, a thought struck Endymion’s brain like a thunderbolt. With his dilated pupils, he blamed himself for not having thought of this earlier.
‘Let’s get rid of it.’
With a concise conclusion that he didn’t even have to look back, he moved straight into action.
Kwajik-!
Endymion’s hand, which passed by in an instant as if grinding, pierced his eyeball right through. Then, it fell to the ground, and the Eyeball familiar was able to distinguish forms even without spiritual eyes.
‘Now… Now what to do with this.’
“…….”
There was no way there was such a thing as this next plan. It’s not that there isn’t a method at all, but the place was inappropriate to use it.
‘I’m hiding my power for some reason.’
Impossible ejaculation. It happened before I came over to this world.
In the end, Endymion picked up the untethered familiar with his hand and strode back down the hallway.
‘Let’s throw it away when it’s suitable.’
It won’t be too late to hide Selene’s worries for now.
‘I should hide it as soon as possible.’
Time is tight. It is self-evident that if you continue like this, it will be too late and you will buy useless doubts.
Endymion held back the power he had released after a long time and locked the lock of his seal.
‘Nothing will happen now.’
The spiritual eyes were released, and the back of him holding the hideous creature in his hand disappeared into the deep darkness of an unlit hallway.

“Tower mage! Please listen to our plea…!”
Dark co. In this place where dozens of gibberishes had gathered, only one human remained.
The only surviving human was eagerly looking for the wizard of the tower at the altar.
Tear your throat, I kept calling and calling again and again.
How long has it been?
Kwaguawang-!!!
A roaring sound engulfed the area, as if thunder had struck from the sky.
“Ah… ah…!”
A survivor who was praying at the altar shed bloody tears of joy.
“Wizard of the Tower!”
Two hands spread wide. There was a flash outside from the thunder that struck at the right time, and he saw a person appearing in front of him.
“Is it you who called me?”
“That’s right, please, please… Eliminate the enemies of our clan!!”
Kwakwang-! Kwakwang-! Kwakwang-!
“…….”
The mysterious woman wearing a robe was silent. It was only her curvaceous figure that showed through her clothes that made her guess that she was her woman.
She was silent along with the thunderstorm, and then she opened her mouth.
“Why me?”
Selene, the tower mage, looked ridiculous.
