Chapter 69 – Habits Are Scary

Bella had been drinking quite hard in her previous life. Ever since she became a police officer, she has accumulated experience of drinking with her co-workers whenever she worked hard or had a hard time.

“One shot!”

And, the experience remained intact. She even lifted it upside down to indicate that the glass was empty.

Besides, Rinne also liked to drink quite a bit.

“Ta-da! I drank it all!”

Even though she initially tried to match the mood by imitating Bella, Rinne was also excited to hang out with her.

“Rinne, I actually quite like you.”

“Miss Bella. If you like me, can’t you just do me one favor?”

“What are you asking for?”

At that, Rinne grabbed her hands tightly and opened her eyes, then replied, “Can’t I say that I invented the radio magic that Miss Bella made?”

“…What?”

The drink she was drinking almost spat out.

What kind of person boldly asked, ‘Can I steal your idea?’ In the novel, after Rio’s death in the Demon Realm, Rinne was a character who only appeared as a side story, so Bella wasn’t very impressed with her.

“I want to have the title of Archmage. Do some research that will shake up academia, bring some magic tools…”

“Well…”

“When I become an Archmage in the future, I will allow Miss Bella to come from the Demon Realm to the Human Realm at any time.”

It was a proposition that was neither good nor bad for Bella. It seemed that she didn’t even need the honor of a wizard.

“Well then, okay.”

“Thank, thank you.”

Rinne stood up in excitement and tried to bow down to Bella altogether.

“Never mind, have a drink.”

“Absolutely. I will drink all the alcohol you give me!”

So, one cup became two cups. Bella became more and more attracted to Rinne because of her ferocious personality.

“Hey, you’re a good drinker.”

“There’s nothing I can’t do!”

“It’s great, good.”

So, drink another cup.

It was when the atmosphere was getting riper. Rinne had got what she wanted, and it was amazing that she could be so comfortable like this, so she said what she had always thought.

“Wow, if it weren’t for Miss Bella, I wouldn’t have been able to drink. It’s really good.”

“Why can’t you drink?”

“Kiehl doesn’t like to drink while traveling.”

It was an unfamiliar story to Bella. Come to think of it, it had been eight years since they had been apart. Of course, in ten years, the rivers and mountains have changed, so things must have changed a lot.

“How contemptuous his view was. If I told him I drank with Miss Bella, he probably wouldn’t say anything.”

“I see. I only saw him when he was young…”

“How was he when he was young?”

…How was he? The Kiehl that Bella remembered.

“Well… A crystal of cuteness?”

“What? Who is cute?”

Rinne spilled the alcohol from her mouth.

Wasn’t the story of the past the best finger food? Bella remembered Kiehl, who was cute, every time she drank.

“Pur was bothering to follow him every day, I didn’t know when they got so close and how cute he was when he took a nap with Pur.”

It was also cute that he picked flowers every day and gave them without saying a word.

“When I say he was cute, he would be sulking all day, isn’t that just too cute?”

“What’s cute about that?”

Rinne listened to her story with a deadly gaze.

“Because you have a younger brother, too — there must be a good time when your younger brother is cute.”

“Uugh. If it’s Rio then it’s uugghh.”

Suddenly, both of them were almost drunk and had a heated discussion with their faces at the table.

“Our Kiehl came holding a pillow like this and said ‘I had a nightmare,’ and slept all night together that day.”

“Our Highness is far from being cuuutttteeee.”

So, was Kiehl cute or not?

The bartender, who watched it, shook his head and shook their shoulders.

“Hey, ladies. Stop drinking now and pay up.”

“Rinnnneee. The boss told us to pay.”

“Our cash cow is Kieeeehhhhllll.”

Eventually, the bartender headed to the innkeeper to find the party that had come with them.

At that time, in the corner of the bar on the first floor of the inn, eyes like hyenas were twinkling. The men have been watching Bella since she came down. Just as expected. Seeing her drinking coolly was worth staring at.

When the bartender, who was a thorn in their eye, left, they approached Bella.

“Hey, Lady.”

While they were delivering a pick-up line, in Bella’s eyes, it looked like they were picking a fight.

“If you don’t have money, do you want us to buy you one?”

“Would you like another drink?”

Bella turned her head away, burying her face in the table.

Four strong men. In addition, there were also two slender girls… Even though she was completely trashed, at that moment, Bella’s mind flashed.

“Hey, we have a lot of moneeyy.”

Although Rinne expressed her intention of refusing them positively, they soon sat around Bella and Rinne. First, they put their hand on Rinne’s shoulder, which looked a little easy. Then, they tapped the drunkard Bella on the forearm, who looked strict but drank well.

“I’ll pay for it, so would you like to hand with us a little more?”

Bella was a police officer, so it was a scene she had seen a lot, either directly or indirectly.

“Who do you think of as a beggar…”

“Oho, your mouth is a little rough. Shall I sweeten that mouth a little?”

This strange sexual harassment.

They were even molesting Bella, swiping a hand on her thigh.

“Hey, won’t you let go of this hand?”

Bella, drunk as she was, took the hand placed on her thigh and twisted it without thinking back and forth.

“Uwaak!”

And, she pressed his waist with her knees.

With a loud bang, the man fell down, and Bella naturally moved her hand to her waist.

“The handcuffs…”

However, of course, there were no handcuffs around her waist.

“Oh, I’m not on duty.”

And then, when the men rushed to help their friend, Bella stood up lightly and hit each one in the stomach.

“Wow! Well done!”

Meanwhile, Rinne, who was very drunk, clapped her hands and cheered.

“Aren’t they falling too easily?”

Of course, they’re also a little drunk. Bella got up and stumbled. She then took the cell phone out of her pocket.

‘First of all, report…’

Bella was about to call the police, but then the man fainted as if she had hit him a little too much.

“Ku… uh…uh…”

“Oh dear, he passed out?”

Just at that time, the bartender arrived at the scene with the innkeeper.

“N… no… Those ladies​​—What is this…”

After a brief absence, the bar was in a mess—overturned tables and chairs, and the broken bottles as the men fell.

“NO! This is an 18-year-old wine! Did you just break this?”

“How much is it? Miss Bella was almost in danger…!”

“Never mind! Please, compensate for the damage! Also, pay for the drinks you’ve had so far! Otherwise, we will hand you over to the police here in charge.”

At the word compensation, Rinnee and Bella glanced at each other and shrugged shyly. At the same time, the innkeeper calmed down the angry bartender.

“That’s okay. I saw some of their other party here. Wait a minute.”

When she heard the sound of horseshoes, Bella realized that Kiehl was about to leave.

“Hey, Lady. Are you running away now?”

“I’m not.”

She stood at the entrance to avoid any misunderstanding and waited for him to come in. Eventually, the door opened, and Kiehl appeared with light shining behind him like salvation.

“Why are you here now? I’ve been waiting for you.”

Bella first took him in her arms and seduced him with sugar-coated words.

“You know how much I love you, right?”

“…What?”

“I didn’t do that on purpose…”

“…Have they been drinking?”

Rio muttered from behind as if teasing him.

“Wow. What did you say to me earlier?”

Perhaps, the bartender was grinding his teeth, so as soon as Kiehl arrived, he was furious.

“Hey! The alcohol these ladies drank and the mess they made in the store… You have to pay for everything!”

“They started… the fight first.”

Bella pouted her lips out of embarrassment and imitated the bartender’s tone. Meanwhile, Kiehl gently grabbed her cheek with his hand and stretched it out. How much did she drink…? Her face was so red that it felt like it was going to burn.

‘…Cute.’

Like a cat that messes up the house and rubs its head, he couldn’t think of anything else other than cute.

“Rio, deal with it.”

Needless to say, he shifted all the burden on Rio and supported Bella.

“Should we stop drinking and go up?”

“Hey, what are you talking about? I am still very fresh.”

Fresh. She couldn’t walk even a single step and stumble.

“Then, let’s go up and drink more, how about that?”

“Good! Call!”

What else was a call? Kiehl’s also liked Bella’s disheveled drunkenness. It was annoying to see some men lying on the floor of the messed-up bar.

“Drink one more drink…”

“Yes. I understand.”

Laying Bella on the bed, she said she wanted to drink more though she whimpered and closed her eyes.

“Next time, don’t drink until you’re drunk like this.”

Kiehl ruffled Bella’s hair and smiled happily.

“Don’t be this cute even when you’re drunk.”

One out of the four strong men who got drunk was knocked till he passed out.

Until Rinne came, he had been watching Bella the whole time. It was the face he really missed, to see her sleeping without boundaries. Bella, who read a fairy tale to him, yawned, and fell asleep first after patting him on the back.

And, it was then.

At that moment, his eyes, who had only looked at her cutely, changed terribly. It was because Bella rummaged through her pockets as she slept and pulled out her cell phone.

‘That’s…’

Bella naturally placed her hand on the screen of her phone. In the darkness, Kiehl’s bright eyes were watching her.

“Uhh…”

She flicked her fingers familiarly, then smiled bashfully and grabbed her cell phone.

When she passed from the Demon Realm to the Human Realm, Kiehl tried to check, but he couldn’t find any information at that time. A magic tool that suddenly only reads, ‘This is the wrong fingerprint,’ ‘It will be locked for a week.’

At the time, he didn’t know what that meant.

‘…It needs Bella’s finger to open it.’

He cautiously took Bella’s hand to the cellphone.

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard through the door.

“Oh, hey! Walk straight. Please…!”

Rio slammed the door open angrily, and Kiehl hurriedly pulled his hand away. He thought he would be the most undetectable.

“Your Highness, Rinne is also sleeping here, but doing this here…”

He seemed to be misunderstood in a different way.

“It’s, it’s not like that.”

“…Get out. You beast.”

It was a little embarrassing. He wouldn’t do anything unscrupulous to a drunken person, was he…?

“What the hell do you see me as?”

“Yes. Someone who is crazy about the person lying there.”
