The Escort Knight Who Is Being Obsessed Over by the Villainess Wants To Run Away - Chapter 209
209 – 73. Raise Me (4)
After washing the cat, I went up to the bedroom.
Judah and Elijah decided to share their lives with cats.
It seemed unlikely that this small, delicate creature would get along on its own.
The bigger reason is that the cat tried not to get away from Elijah.
May came along and explained various things.
“Cats are animals that know how to urinate and urinate on their own, so you don’t have to worry about that. And if possible, it is best not to place items in high places.”
“High up? Why?”
“Cats like high places, and sometimes they climb up and knock down things placed there.”
“Umm…. I see.”
Luckily, there is a lot of empty space in Judah and Elijah’s room.
Although it is almost the size of a house, there are only a few pieces of furniture that fill the interior.
This is because the two people were mostly focused on loving each other in bed.
“You will need time to adapt since you are in a strange place. So don’t worry about putting it somewhere, just release it freely. I will find a place where I can feel stable on my own. Then, just place this cushion in that spot.”
“Yes. “I will.”
In addition, May introduced several structures that cats can climb on and fishing rod-shaped toys.
May left only after explaining how to use it.
Elijah carefully placed the cat on the floor.
You can roam around as much as you like.
The cat, who was looking around in confusion, soon started writhing and crawling.
Judah and Elijah watched from the entrance.
“Something so small moves so well.”
“That’s right. “But what should we name it?”
“Um….”
The most important and difficult time has come.
“Has Ellie thought of something?”
“Wow. One.”
“What is it?”
“Judas.”
“… My Name?”
“Wow. “You look like Judas.”
“If we look alike, we look alike…. “In fact, he resembles Ellie more.”
“Sucking on a baby bottle is the same.”
“… “It’s not a baby bottle that I drank.”
Every time she kept bringing it up, Judah’s face got hot.
Elijah’s words are 100% pure and true.
She has no room to refute.
But the situation is a bit crazy.
So, it is cowardly to bring this up and make fun of it in this rational situation.
Looking at Judah’s embarrassment, Elijah chuckled.
Then suddenly, something to counterattack Judah also occurred to him.
“It’s a bit different from a baby bottle. Didn’t Ellie wash it very carefully too?”
“What…” .”
Elijah’s eyes widened as he tried to ask her what she meant.
Her realization soon bloomed into a blush on her face.
“That, that, that…” !”
“What about that?”
Judah asked back as he approached her with great strides.
A large shadow fell over Elijah’s face.
“Well, so….”
Looking at Elijah who didn’t know what to do, Judah smirked.
“Why don’t you say more?”
“Ugh…. I don’t know….”
To hide her embarrassed face, Elijah whined and fell into his arms.
Judah loved her endlessly and stroked her head.
“I look at it because it’s cute.”
“Hmm…. “Don’t look at it.”
“That’s later at night.”
“… ….”
By the time Elijah became aware of something touching her lower abdomen, her cat meowed.
“Mieeing-.”
The cat was looking up at the bed and crying.
This is because it was too high to jump up.
Judah went over to her and lifted her onto the bed.
“Tsk. Are you done now?”
The cat ignored him and crawled all over his bed.
“It’s definitely the same wayward Ellie was back in the day.”
Elijah could not refute.
“So you really want to call me by my name?”
“I meant it as a joke. I guess I should give it another proper name. “What would be better?”
“Hmm…. “The dogs saw what it looked like and built it.”
A name that Elijah criticized at first as being insincere.
But now Elijah has decided to acknowledge his naming sense.
At least it’s better than a name like Erzsebet.
Judah blurted out while looking at the cat still wandering around on the bed.
“Black?”
“Umm….”
This time too, it almost seemed like it was insincere.
But if you think about it carefully, it’s not a bad name.
“Have you thought about anything Ellie? “Not my name.”
“There’s nothing special about her….”
Elijah also quietly watched the cat.
This guy looks like a pile of pitch-black dust.
She was like that when I first saw her.
In that port city, that unusually black and small child did not look like a living thing but like a lump of dust.
The answer that came out was a word that came to mind without thinking.
“Dust?”
“Ellie is finally starting to follow my naming sense.”
“… ….”
“Dust. “It’s not bad, is it?”
“I see, I see… ?”
Elijah was very quiet.
It felt good to be recognized by Judah, but there was room for criticism of the evaluation that it followed his naming sense.
“Dust. “It’s dust.”
But Judah already liked the name.
Elijah also listened and thought she liked it, so she decided to accept it.
“He doesn’t respond even when I call him. “When spotted birds hear any sound, they immediately react.”
“I guess it’s because it’s a cat.”
There was a doll on the bed that Elijah was sleeping with.
A birthday present from Judah 5 years ago.
Sleeping black cat doll.
Dust was looking face to face with the doll and tilting her head.
“Meet?”
When Elijah saw that, her heart seemed to melt.
“It feels a bit self-indulgent, but if it’s cute, everything can be forgiven. “Like Ellie.”
“… Quiet.”
Dust settled at the head of her bed.
“I guess you like that place.”
He curled himself up and lay down on top of the pillows of Judah and Elijah.
The bed was large enough for two people to lie down with their arms spread out, so there was no lack of space.
Instead, one thing arose to worry about.
“I’ll have to be careful not to accidentally lay it while I’m sleeping.”
Although I placed a cushion at her bedside to trap the dust, it may move around as it pleases in her sleep.
Or it may rise above the bodies of Judah and Elijah.
The two decided to be careful to avoid such unfortunate events.
“Wow. “We will be staying together from now on, so I need to be careful.”
And so, my life with dust began.
*
The dust’s sleeping habits could not be said to be quiet, even in a good way.
Sometimes he would sit on Judah’s face or rest his tail on his nose, disturbing his sleep.
Even when Judah woke up, she just laughed once.
It’s a terrible thing to blame that cute little guy.
Sometimes he tried to enter Judas’ clothes, but he was frequently blocked by Elijah.
Even in her sleep, she never allowed that to happen.
Remove the dust and return her to her original place, or Elijah hugged her and slept with her.
Sometimes I would run around this large room alone.
At first, Judah and Elijah couldn’t sleep because of the noise, but they got used to it after a few days.
I can now sleep regardless of whether I run around or not.
I was worried about spending time alone, but surprisingly, it didn’t bother me too much.
Anyway, you can use a cage.
Like paint spreading on paper.
I gradually got used to living in a dusty space.
It was truly a mysterious and touching daily life.
It is similar but different from when I brought in spotted puppies.
“Dust!”
After finishing their business, the two went straight to the bedroom.
Then, the dust whirrs and runs on its short legs to meet you.
“Aewooung-.”
“Have you been alone?”
Elijah picked up the dust and hugged it.
At first, I was very anxious about leaving this little child alone.
It was rain.
The dust got along quite well on its own.
It was a cat that knew how to take care of the rest as long as you took the time to bottle feed it.
Of course, the time Elijah and Judah are away is not very long.
In addition, since teleportation is possible, I stop by from time to time to check on the remaining dust.
“Miwoong.”
The dust licked Elijah’s chin and whined.
Elijah didn’t find her scratchy texture too bad.
She was just fine even when she got wet.
“Wow, it’s cute.”
Judah was happily watching Elijah and the dust next to her.
“They say cute things are cute.”
“Hmm…. No it’s not.”
“It doesn’t mean it’s not.”
Judah hugged Elijah from behind.
Then her dust came up her shoulder, and this time it licked her own chin.
“Ugh, yes, yes.”
Judah took it a few times and then gently stroked her dusty chin.
Then, she gently closes her eyes and surrenders her face to her hands.
Just looking at that peaceful expression makes me feel good.
Then she suddenly had this thought.
‘Should I try this with Ellie too…’ .’
*
“Ellie.”
“Huh?”
Elijah, who was munching on her cookie, looked up at Judah.
Judah looked at her bulge and laughed.
“Wham?”
“First, eat everything in your mouth.”
“Hung.”
“Eat slowly.”
“Hung.”
After Elijah swallowed what he had eaten, Judah gently stroked her chin.
Like you do with dust.
“… What’s this?”
“I just wanted to try it.”
“You’re doing this to dust.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
“Umm… ?”
I touched her gently with the fingerprints of her fingertips, as if scratching her.
Even though she was puzzled, she gently closed her eyes and surrendered her face to her own touch.
“How do you feel?”
“Wow…. I’m not sure, but it feels good somehow….”
The sight of her resting her chin and surrendering to her caressing touch.
Even quietly closing your eyes and making a pleasant sound.
From noble mtl dot com
Almost identical to dust.
The only difference is that the dust rustles and Elijah mutters.
“Yuda’s hands are big and warm, so they feel good…” .”
Judah looked happily at Elijah, who was muttering, and touched other places as well.
Scratch her chin, then her cheeks, ears, forehead, neck, etc.
Elijah smiled lazily and thoroughly enjoyed his touch.
Looking at her, Judah was convinced again.
‘I heard it’s a cat.’
*
While Judah went exercising, Elijah was sitting in her office.
Today, there was dust as well.
She usually does well alone, but today I caught her as she went out and brought her to her office with her because she was whining.
‘Cute.’
The black ball of fur sat on the desk, and she stroked her quill tail with her paw.
Thanks to this, Elijah has not yet been able to process a single document.
She knows she has to work, but she just can’t.
I want to play with dust all day.
“Is this fun?”
“Mueng-.”
“Is that so?”
When you flick a feather, the dust just moves its head from its place to look at the feather, and then suddenly lunges at it.
Elijah laughed at the sight of her struggling to catch him with her short front paws.
“It’s cute.”
She couldn’t just play around.
Elijah came to her senses and checked her report and letters.
Meanwhile, the dust hit the crumpled paper she was about to throw away, causing it to drop.
“… ?”
Her dust blinked its amber eyes and looked at Elijah as if nothing had happened.
‘Now that I think about it, she did it a few times when she was in the bedroom…. ‘There was dust falling here and there.’
She said May said that cats like to drop things that are placed on them.
‘What is the reason?’ .’
Elijah used wind magic to lift her paper back to the desk.
Then her dust fell with her front paw, dropping another piece of paper.
“Is it fun?”
Even if you ask, she just tilts her head.
Elijah lifted up her paper, and this time she knocked it down herself.
Tuk. The fallen paper rolls on the floor.
“Um…. “Is this fun?”
Elijah held on to that worry for quite a long time, and Judah ended up seeing Elijah’s strange appearance that night.
“… ?”
Elijah drops her things on the bed.
Toilet paper, hair ties, pillows, cosmetic containers that are safe even if dropped, etc.
Next to him, he touched the dust one by one.
Judah was dumbfounded and just watched her.
‘… ‘Is this a real cat?’
*
Elijah has been having trouble recently.
“Hmm….”
The core of the subject is Judah.
Just like her life.
Everything always originates from Judah.
“Cute guy.”
Judas loves dust.
It’s nice to see him caring for animals.
But….
‘… I think it’s a bit harsh. Wasn’t it just me who said it was cute….’
She thought about the matter quite seriously and seriously.
Shocked.
Judah felt the cold gaze and turned around.
“… Ellie? “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Not really.”
Elijah answered her by pouting his lips.
She was embarrassed to say out loud that she was cuter and prettier than dust.
I quickly found a way to solve the problem.
One night.
Judah faced Elijah, who looked unfamiliar.
After washing and before going to sleep. He was sitting on the bed.
Elijah approached him.
“Hey, meow….”
Elijah, wearing a cat ear-shaped headband, crawls onto her bed, making her want to know where she got it from.
Meanwhile, she stutters as if she knows she is embarrassed. Her face is red too.
“… Ellie?”
“Nya, nya?”
Elijah pretended not to notice, pawing at her like a cat.
Her face became redder than before.
“… ….”
Judas quickly understood this situation.
She’s been with Elijah for several years now, and it’s hard not to notice her anymore.
‘Have you been enjoying dust too much lately?’ .’
Because of that, Elijah felt jealous, and she expressed it this way.
‘I was wondering why I took so long to change my clothes today…. It’s so cute….’
Just looking at the strange clothes is truly mesmerizing.
I had to act shamelessly and slyly, but it didn’t seem easy.
‘But what is that cat’s tail? Where on earth did you pin it… ?’
While various imaginations were unfolding, Elijah came up on top of Judah. She hides her face in her chest, then she lifts it up and looks her in the eye.
“… “Why, what?”
“I think that’s what I’m going to say.”
“Hmph. I don’t know…. I’m embarrassed.”
Judah’s mischievous spirit arose as he looked at Elijah, who was embarrassed and her whole body was hot.
“Can’t cats speak human language?”
“… Yes?”
“You should meow, not meow.”
“Ugh….”
Desire to harass.
When Elijah saw his boiling eyes, he became nervous.
Her hand caressing her chin is gentle, but it feels as if she will be snatched up and laid down at any moment.
No, she hopes she does.
Although Elijah was embarrassed, she followed his orders.
“Hey, meow….”
“That’s right, that’s good.”
That night, Elijah was loved in bed.
*
“Mom.”
Elijah visited the Empress Dowager’s palace.
“Yes, Ellie. Come on.”
Maria was sitting by the stove knitting.
She was rolling a ball of dusty yarn next to her.
Occasionally, Mary would look after Judah and Elijah while they were away.
“What are you making?”
“I was thinking of making each of you gloves.”
Autumn has deepened.
Beyond being cool, the weather is sometimes chilly.
“First of all, I’m going to make Eliger first. So, what does she have to say to mom?”
“Rather than saying something…. “It’s nothing special.”
Elijah sat down next to Mary and said.
“I also want to learn knitting.”
“Huh?”
Mary quickly realized Elijah’s feelings, and she grinned.
“Is there something you want to make for Yuda?”
Although Elijah blushed and was embarrassed, she smiled brightly and nodded.
“Of course.”
