My Contract Husband is Going Crazy Because of My Iron Wall - Chapter 46.1
Chapter 46.1
“Alright. Let’s hurry and cross the barrier now… But why are you making that face?”
Reinhardt looked slightly surprised for some reason. He took a few strands of my hair and showed them to me, and I thought I understood why he was surprised.
“Oh, I guess the magic stone in my ring has weakened, so my hair has returned to its original color.”
“I see.”
He answered calmly, but for some reason, he couldn’t take his eyes off me. Is it that strange?
“You saw it last time, too, so why are you surprised? Oh, right. I guess it might feel even more strange since it changed suddenly.”
“….”
Even at my words, Reinhardt just stared at me blankly as if he had forgotten how to answer.
“Reinhardt?”
“Ah. I’m sorry. You’re just so beautiful….”
“…Yes?”
“No, I mean… I mean…um… No. Why are you suddenly surprised? Surely, you know how beautiful you are?!”
I knew, but why was he suddenly getting angry?
“It’s not like it’s the first time I’ve heard it.”
“Well, that’s true… Some people even cried when they saw me.”
“Is that all?”
I thought back to the countless fan signings I had experienced in my previous life. It was something that any idol would naturally experience. It must be hard for Reinhardt, who didn’t even know the concept of an idol, to believe.
“I guess I need to be more careful than I thought.”
“What do you mean?”
“There’s that. Still, more importantly, let’s go back now.”
“Why are you beating around the bush!”
“You’re the one who’s always beating around the bush, Irovel.”
“….”
I had no words for that.
What could I do? I had no choice but to let it go, even though it was annoying.
I took out an onion, squeezed out some tears, and then ground the newly produced magic stone and put it on the ring. I checked my hair in front of my eyes, and it had turned brown again.
“Are you going to go back?”
“If I don’t go back, where else would I go?”
The squishies, who had heard Reinhardt and my conversation, whined cutely, and Larboris lay down in front of me, blocking my way.
“I’m sorry. I have to go home now.”
“Don’t go, you.”
“Don’t go. You don’t go.”
I smiled and rubbed the squishies’ cheeks, which were as soft as their names.
“I’m not ‘you,’ I’m Irovel.”
“Irobel. Don’t go. Ayingrobe come with.”
“Don’t go. Irobe only come so don’t go.”
“We’ll have another chance to meet again.”
“When next?”
“When?”
I couldn’t say that it would happen when the barrier is broken later… It seemed like there was an incident where the barrier was actually broken in the novel. While I thought hard, I couldn’t remember why the barrier had been broken.
I thought it was just vaguely described and passed over.
“Well, I don’t know when it will be, but there will be a time when we meet again. If there’s really no chance, I’ll come again. Will you come with me, Reinhardt*?”
[ T/N: She didn’t call his name but used 말미잘 똔개 씨 instead, and I had no idea what that meant, but it seemed to be a nickname used by her in this context and the demons. ]
“Well, I guess so.”
Reinhardt nodded stiffly.
The squishies finally let me go after I made them promise to meet again about ten times. As I walked out, guided by them, Larboris followed us closely.
“Irobe. Goodbye. Reinhat*. Irobe next time definitely bring.”
[ T/N: This, too, they didn’t say his name but his nickname. ]
“Don’t go. Irobe if you don’t bring, your nostrils will rot.”
It sounded cute, but if you think about it carefully, it was like saying you’d suffocate me to death…? They’re scary, I tell you.
After finally patting Larboris, I steeled myself and faced Reinhardt. This time has come again.
The time when I have to kiss him.
‘Don’t get your heart racing, don’t get your heart racing…’
As I took a deep breath to prepare for the kiss, Reinhardt suddenly covered my lips without warning. Then, as if he had been waiting for it, he opened my mouth with his lips. It wasn’t the first time I had kissed him, yet a different kind of emotion filled my heart than before.
‘My heart shouldn’t be racing….’
Now, my heart wasn’t just racing. It was pounding like it had just run a marathon.
I felt overwhelmed by the feeling, so I closed my eyes tightly and quickly exhaled. One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds… Even though I had exhaled enough, Reinhardt didn’t take his lips off mine.
In the end, I was the first to pull away from him, and
“Ha…”
He let out a breath.
We have to do it again! While I was in shock, he covered my lips again without saying anything.
