I Became the Childhood Friend of the Northern Duchess - I Became the Childhood Friend of the Northern Duchess chapter 253

253 – Side Story – To the World He Was in (4)

It was a truly intense night.

Thanks to this, the next day, the two had no choice but to relax at Edgar’s house while stretching out.

It’s a waste of time since there are only two days left, but what can you do?

Aside from Edgar, Ariel has lost her waist and can’t afford to go out.

“Ed, I’m bored.”

Ariel, who was rolling around in bed, finally expressed her boredom.

Of course, it’s always fun when I’m alone with him.

However, perhaps because yesterday’s unique day was so enjoyable, as a reaction to it, today, locked in a corner of the room, felt very boring.

At the same time, Edgar also thought that he needed to come up with something, so he gave Ariel a suggestion.

“I know. Should we at least watch a movie?”

“Movie? What is that?”

“In other words, the novel was made into a video like that TV.”

Ariel’s eyes widened as Edgar spoke, pointing to the wall-mounted TV on the living room wall.

You can watch a novel on video.

Especially for her, who used to read her romance novels when she was bored in her other world, it was nothing short of a culture shock.

“Why are you telling me such a good thing now?”

In response to her injustice, Ariel stamped her feet and protested.

If she knew better than anyone else how much she loved her romance novels, wouldn’t it be right for her to treat herself to such good literature immediately?

However, Edgar also felt somewhat unfair about this.

Originally, she planned to take him for a short walk and to the movies after dinner yesterday, but her sudden temptation changed her schedule.

“Yesterday the time was vague and I didn’t even know I was going to the motel. So what do you think?”

“Want to see! “Then are there such things as romance movies?”

“Okay then.”

Edgar went straight to the menu and searched for recently popular movies.

When I selected romance in the genre category, there weren’t that many, but a few things popped up.

Among them was the movie that Edgar had set his sights on yesterday.

From what I heard, it depicts realistic love between a man and a woman rather than a desperate romance, but the bright atmosphere between the male and female actors works well together, making it fun to watch with a smile.

The problem was that Edgar thought the atmosphere would be quite different from the romance novels Ariel liked, so he decided to ask her opinion.

“Should I consider it sad? “I heard this feels a bit funny.”

“It doesn’t matter. Rather, I want to see something funny because it’s fresh.”

“Really?”

She was quite surprising to Edgar, who had seen her shed tears while reading a romance novel.

She doesn’t just like sad and sad stories.

“The reason I only see sad things in the first place is because those kinds of novels are the only ones I read. Wouldn’t it be better if you could see it with a smile?”

“Hmm… That’s also true.”

Of course, both sad and funny things have their pros and cons, but Edgar somehow came to terms with it.

Still, she just has a one-dimensional way of thinking that it would be better to smile than to shed tears.

Anyway, after deciding to watch the popular romance drama, Edgar got up from her seat.

Because when you watch a movie, there is something you need the most.

“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to grab some snacks. Is there anything you want to eat?”

I had plenty of food because I bought a lot of things with my tired body on the way home in the morning.

If it doesn’t work out, you can have it delivered.

When Edgar asked, Ariel seemed to be thinking for a moment and then made a suggestion.

“Then how about alcohol?”

“Alcohol?”

Edgar’s eyes widened at the quite unexpected request.

It’s almost 2pm and I’m drinking.

Of course, I can’t drink it, but it was awkward coming from the mouth of a woman who doesn’t really like alcohol.

“I want to try what you said yesterday.”

“What did I say? Oh, you mean chicken and beer?”

“Was it that kind of name? Anyway, you said you eat beer with something.”

“That’s right. Since we’re talking about it, I guess that’s okay too.”

Chicken and beer.

It is a common food that is somewhat different from that of the northern rulers, but since it is a popular food eaten even by rich conglomerates, it doesn’t seem to matter much, so Edgar decided on the menu with that.

Still, it was a shame to only eat chicken and beer, so I ordered chicken and beer for delivery and decided to bring some more of what I had at home to go with it.

‘Let’s order plenty even if there is some left over.’

After completing his order at the chicken restaurant he frequented as a child, he looked in the refrigerator.

Fortunately, since the time zone was limited, I received a notification through the app that orders would arrive in 40 minutes.

Since he might arrive earlier than this, Edgar decided to finish the remaining preparations in advance and busied himself with his steps.

“But could you drink beer?”

“You can’t drink it. “I usually drink wine, so I just don’t touch it.”

There is beer in that world too, and Ariel has often drank it.

However, I prefer that wine because I like the unique grape flavor.

But today, I was intrigued when I heard that it was a snack that Edgar often eats in this world.

If you go to the other world, you can drink it all the time, but wouldn’t it be better to enjoy the food that is the symbol of this world?

“Ugh.”

As Edgar was setting the table, something was placed behind his back.

Ariel, whose fatigue from yesterday had not yet subsided, moaned and leaned her head on her shoulder.

From noble mtl dot nete

Edgar smiled wryly at her as he placed her beer on her table and reached out to stroke her hair.

Yesterday she said she would do nothing but look after her, but it seems like she was overdoing it.

If this is still the case even after using healing magic, the fatigue would be greater than the back pain.

“Let’s relax and watch a movie today. “I can go out at night when I feel better.”

“At night… ? “Wouldn’t there be nothing then?”

“It’s a little different from the other world.”

Edgar smiled, saying that she only believed in him.

Not long after that, a notification arrived that the chicken had arrived.

Edgar opened the front door, went out, returned with an envelope left in front of the door, and opened the package with a smile on his face.

How long has this been chicken?

Even though he is not crazy about chicken, this unique smell has an unknown magical power that deceives people.

“It smells good…”

“Yes? Try it first. If it doesn’t suit your taste, let me know.”

As Ariel also leaned towards the table to sniff, Edgar grinned and started her movie.

Since I deliberately ordered chicken from a restaurant that offers various types of chicken, I thought there would be at least one of them that would suit Ariel’s taste

Cheeik.

Thinking that Ariel might be uncomfortable, he poured the beer she had poured into her glass, including the lid her her her her.

Then, belatedly, she carefully got off the sofa and settled next to him.

Leaning on your shoulder is a bonus.

“Shall we make a toast?”

“Okay.”

Ariel held out her glass first and proposed a toast, so Edgar smiled, clinking his glasses weakly.

Ariel, who was staring at the movie that had just started, turned her gaze to the table.

After hesitating at the various types of chicken displayed, she followed Edgar and moved her hand to one chicken.

Out of consideration for her, Edgar ordered her chicken boneless, so she was able to forcefully put the chicken into her mouth without the hassle of picking out the bones.

“Yum.”

Ariel’s eyes widened as she bit into her crispy batter.

After a moment of hesitation, she moved her chin and chewed her chicken again, and hot juice and a fragrant aroma came out.

There was a slightly spicy taste in the middle, but it wasn’t as bad as the tteokbokki I ate yesterday, and I liked it because it was just enough to whet my appetite.

“What do you think?”

“Wow, it’s delicious.”

Ariel belatedly came to her senses and answered hurriedly when Edgar secretly asked her thoughts.

She had tried all kinds of delicacies that existed in the other world, but she was so surprised by her food that she stopped talking.

It certainly does not boast a deep flavor or heavenly taste like foods made with all kinds of spices.

But what can I say. It has a savory taste that instantly captivates a person’s taste buds.

Savory and spicy, plus the rich juiciness of the meat.

It could be said that the three beats work well together and exquisitely stimulate human instinctive desires.

“I drink beer and eat it as I go.”

“Ugh.”

At Edgar’s recommendation, Ariel carefully took a sip of the beer in her glass.

To be honest, the beer itself doesn’t have a very special taste, but it definitely goes well with this chicken dish.

In other words, it feels like they make up for each other’s shortcomings well, like wine and cheese.

Ariel slowly immersed herself in the movie she had started while eating her chicken over and over again.

Although the background is set in modern times, where Edgar lived, the feeling of love is not much different regardless of the era or world line.

From that perspective, it could be said that choosing a romantic movie was the right choice.

– Fool. In times like this, can’t you come to me first?

– Hey, I’m tired too? What kind of dog am I? Whenever you want, I’ll rush over and satisfy your mood?

-What? “Have you said everything?”

The actors playing the lovers on the other side of the screen were fighting for a fairly trivial reason.

However, I sympathized with Ariel even more because her reason was simple.

In the first place, even when she sometimes sulked or sulked at Edgar, there was rarely a big reason.

Most of them are very small and trivial things.

Because I was hurt and upset by each and every one of them, I was busy making fun of him.

Then, at some point, she got used to it, and she realized that they couldn’t take everything into consideration for each other.

Isn’t it possible that such small processes combine to develop into a more mature relationship?

“Phew.”

A smile spread across Ariel’s lips as she watched the lovers who had been fighting just a moment ago reconcile and bicker again on the other side of the screen.

Although it was somewhat different, it was very similar to her and Edgar’s old daily life.

In that movie, just like in her romance novels, there is no hero defeating his enemy, no beautiful princess, and no adversity that separates the two.

Still, it was fun. No, maybe that’s why it’s fun.

She had always thought that a fictitious story was just a fictitious story, but it felt like she was hinting that this was also a story for someone else.

So she may have become more immersed.

Sreuk.

Her head, carefully tilted, touches Edgar’s shoulder.

In response, Edgar stroked her head once and lowered her hand without saying anything.

Is this what silent communication is like?

Even though we were just holding our bodies close together, it felt like our thoughts and impressions were being communicated to each other.

“Is it fun?”

“Yes, very much.”

“Thank goodness.”

After a brief conversation, the two people became immersed in the movie again.

A special but nothing special day in this world passed by just like that today.
