CHAPTER 55

'Wait, what are you talking about? What conditions did I meet?'

It was the case when I met the first exception, but this situation where I met the second exception didn't make sense either. Seriously, every time I sleep with Killian, the condition is met?

'What are the exceptions for level 2?'

Again, I tried with all my might to convey my question to the voice. The voice said, sounding like a machine-recorded answer.

[Step 2 exception: reject Killian Ludwig's proposal ten times]

'What?'

It was a very absurd condition. To the extent that it is easier to understand the viciousness of the first stage exception condition. My first thought, out of shock, was that someone who put that condition on the line was playing with me.

'I'm sure. they're having fun watching me struggle in real time.'

The god of this world must be a sadist! That person must have known that I liked Killian and made that condition. In fact, if I hadn't made up my mind to clear up Killian's misunderstanding and not to be a sloppy to him, I would never have gotten past the level 2 step exception.

'You really caught a rat on the back of a cow.'

Perhaps by now, the god of this world is as bewildered as I am. It was a little savory as i thought of it. I couldn't hold back the smile that spilled out and laughed. In a dream where I felt nothing but darkness, my senses in my limbs gradually returned. I didn't have any strength in my drowsy body, but something was holding me together so strongly that my body didn't collapse in any way.

"What dreams do you have that make you laugh in your sleep?"

I heard a low-pitched voice. It was Killian's voice, so erotic that shook my eardrums. It seems that i've moved from a dream announcement dream to a general dream. Killian's voice whispers to me. . . . .

"Hmmmm. . . . Good. . . . ."

When I opened my eyes slightly, I could see the man's naked chest, although it was blurry. Considering that I heard Killian's voice earlier, this must be Killian's chest, too. I rubbed my face in it, feeling mushy. Even though it was a dream, the sensation of hot body heat and tight muscles was real. That means it was good.

'Ah. . . . If I die like this, I won't have any regrets. . . . .Huh. . . . ?'

After a while of burying my face in Killian's chest and inhaling his body odor and doing everything I wanted to do, I realized something was not right.

'This is an oddly long runtime for this kind of dream. . . . .'

Feeling somewhat chilly, I only blinked hard and tried to wake up. In front of me, there was a deeper chest bone of a man lying sideways.

'Yes, I rub my face over there, right?'

Five seconds after that realization, I jumped up.

"Ah, Kill, Killian! sorry!"

Crazy! it wasn't a dream! i buried my face in Killian's bare chest. So I apologized, and his smiling face hardened.

"Did you rub your face without realizing it?"

"Oh, no, it's not that, ah, I thought it was a dream!"

"Dreams? are you sure it was me in that dream, too?"

"Yes, but. . . . . in real life, you wouldn't stand still. . . . .i thought I was dreaming."

Only then his frown lifted.

"That's enough. Lie down again."

"Yes?"

When I couldn't understand what he was saying and my eyes widened, he pulled me and locked me back in his arms. He hugged me tightly but said nothing. Except for his long sigh that sounded somehow satisfied. I didn't mind being held by him either, so I just let him do what he wanted to do. I thought I'd fall asleep again, but Killian was playing with my hair on his fingertips. I pretended to be excited and fiddled with his chest muscles because I felt like he would let me do whatever I wanted.

'I think this is enough for C cup. . . . Is not it? I want to give it try to knead it once'

My mouth dropped open. But then Killian started to chuckle and laugh.

"Do you like it that much?"

Oh, I got caught.

"Oh, no, just. . . . It's amazing. . . . "

"What is there to be amazed about? It's natural that you get that much muscle when you train. I found your body more fascinating."

He swept my back slowly with his big hand.

"How can you be like this. . . . Soft. . . . Smooth, isn't it?"

"I was a little worried that I might get crushed earlier."

Then, Killian shook his body and laughed again. It was a strangely warm and relaxing atmosphere.

"Is it the middle of the night?"

I asked because it was dark around me.

"No, it's not. I just drawn some curtains. it must be about dinner time now."

"Ohhhh. . . ."

"You haven't eaten, so you must be hungry."

"Aren't you hungry?"

"I'm hungry."

I didn't think much of it before, but now that it's dinner time and I've skipped lunch, I'm suddenly hungry.

"Can you get up?"

"Yes. . . ."

I was a little dazed, but not dizzy or exhausted. Killian stared down at me and then suddenly kissed me. It wasn't a passionate kiss, but a cozy, comfortable, warm kiss. With a light, moist kiss, he asked quietly.

"To say that. . . . . when you say you don't see me as stallions, are you serious?"

"Why do you ask that? Of course, yes!"

"Well. . . . you've never given me that kind of assurance."

No, you can't say that! when did you give me a chance to do that? but I'm the one who's disappointed. If we keep up the good vibes now, we can change the future and my death at Killian's hand, too.

"How can I make you believe me?"

The corner of his mouth twitched as if he'd been waiting for it.

"Let's go see the opera with me tomorrow. Even outside the bedroom, you are. . . ."

Killian, who was trying to say something more while going to see the opera, just looked down at me and couldn't talk more. He seemed to be thinking about the right word.

"I like it. I thought you weren't forcing yourself to do this or that because of a sense of duty, and I didn't mean to push you away."

"I can't believe it,"

"When did you trust me? But I'm innocent as always."

"Then do your best to convince me."

Killian kissed me again and caressed my body. if my stomach hadn't been rumbling at that point, we probably would have gone for round two. As I buried my face in my hands in embarrassment, Killian gave a small laugh and pulled the rope.

"Get the bath water ready. We will eat when we are done with our bath."

"I'll have it ready in a moment."

Even though we look naked, Anna accepted the order without a moment's hesitation. After taking a bath, we had a late dinner together. I didn't have a great conversation, but I felt full and time flew by.

"Are you sure you want to go out with me tomorrow?"

"The proposal was made by me."

"Yes, but."

"We will go out after lunch tomorrow. If you're ready, I'll pick you up in your room."

My heart fluttered at the thought of going out on a date even though we were already a couple.

"I'll wait. "

". . . . . I'll see you tomorrow."

With that, we parted ways, looking forward to the next day.

***

[Step 2 exception conditions have been met. An exception situation occurs, and the authority of the original author is reduced. The Phase 2 exception condition will be forfeited.]

'How did you do it so fast!'

K was horrified to hear that the conditions for the step 2 exception had been met. I thought she would never be able to break this condition, but Edith quickly fulfilled it as if it had been waiting for me.

'I thought you were in love with Killian it sure looked that way, didn't it?'

The 13th Edith also fell in love with Killian, just like the previous 12 Edith. It was obvious. That's why I was so confident the condition i made by myself, which is 'refuse 10 times proposal from Killian Ludwig'. There's no way Edith will refuse a seductive offer from a person she loves for 10 times.

"I didn't think she could say no once, so let just set it up only 10 times. . . . !'

For K, love was a feeling of wanting to give and do whatever the person you loved wanted. Just like Cliff and Killian do to Lizzy. Even if you can refuse once or twice for any reason, rejecting him for 10 times was the equivalent of not loving him. Even if a person you don't love asks for a favor, it's hard to say no 10 times. How the heck do you get. . . . !

'I thought I was nervous, but I really didn't expect this to happen.'

I don't know exactly what will happen, as it was between Killian, who had 70% dominate, and Edith, who can't get involved at all. Also, I didn't miss what Killian complained about in the middle as if passing by.

"I think Edith is avoiding me these days."

How unfamiliar it was to see Killian talking about Edith, not Lizzy, with a bitter face. . . . but that's what helps me stay above the anomaly, so i even convinced Edith through Lizzy.

'There was definitely a weird vibe going on at the time.'

Edith felt sorry for Killian, who had fallen victim to an arranged marriage, unlike herself. The marriage was not bad.

"That person is still . . . . not accepting me. If he is asking me to do this or that, he will probably be forced to do it because of his position."

At the time, I thought she was just pouting and complaining about Killian, but in this situation, she actually felt that Killian was forcing her to do something he didn't want to do.
