The Character I Created Is Obsessed With Me

18 – Unwanted Companion(1)

“Stop.”

I stopped at the guard’s command.

My body stiffened at the thick voice.

The sharp eyes passed over us.

The nameless dragon was next to me.

I purposely took a seat farthest from the guards to distract my attention.

But, despite the effort, it caught the guard’s eyes.

“Why is that person covering his face?”

You seem suspicious of wearing rags.

Before she answered, I stepped forward.

“It’s because my co-worker is very shy. There’s no particular reason.”

I pretended to be as calm as possible.

Still, the guard swallowed and frowned.

“Is it okay if I check your face for a moment?”

I couldn’t answer. This is the worst.

When Erina and I entered the capital, it ended with a light body search.

I want you to show me your face all of a sudden. But I couldn’t refuse.

You should never do anything that could make you suspicious.

He nodded and stepped back.

The nameless dragon slowly stepped forward.

As she took one step, two steps at a time, her heart beat faster.

“Can’t you talk?”

The answer does not come back. The guard slowly checked the woman standing in front of him up and down.

Outwardly, there were no major problems.

“Kick up the robe.”

After she hesitated for a moment, she raised her head and revealed her face slightly.

I bit my lip with my mouth as I watched.

I begged you to just let it go.

There is a moment of silence. The guard slowly checked her face and nodded her head.

“Why don’t you change your clothes a little. If you wear rags, you won’t be misunderstood.”

Fortunately, the guards laughed and joked.

Without realizing it, I nodded her head and sighed.

“It’s time to get a new one.”

“Yeah. A pretty face doesn’t mean anything if it’s like that.”

Actually, you were right.

Because of her appearance, I thought I would stand out from her, so I purposely put on the rags I found in the forest.

“Anyway, I’m sorry for taking the time. It’s because the capital is cluttered.”

“Is it cluttered?”

“Yes.”

The guard said with a very serious expression.

“A few hours ago, there was a report that the demon king’s army had appeared nearby.”

‘Oh. No way.’

I wondered what was going on because people were suddenly gathering in front of the gate.

I’m talking about the demon lords we encountered.

“You could have been in danger too. If you ran into the army, you wouldn’t have been able to escape.”

It certainly didn’t run away. Conversely, annihilated Even by one person’s hand.

Someone tapped my arm.

Turning to her side, Erina was smiling and nodding her head.

“Anyway, let’s go in. Sorry for taking the time.”

Accepting the security guard’s apology, we entered the capital.

At last, as the guards moved away and entered the streets of the capital, they let out a sigh.

“It’s good. It looks like you’ve got the cognitive deterrence magic.”

If the guard had any skill in magic, he would have been in danger.

Fortunately, seeing the horned head and not saying anything, the magic seemed fine.

“I’m glad. To be honest, I thought I was going to get caught and I was going to run away.”

It was fortunate that the security was not strict.

If I had asked them to take off all the rags, they could have revealed their identity.

Anyway, we entered the capital safely.

From now on, except for the guards on patrol, it was good to be relieved.

“Let’s go to the inn first. I need to unpack my bags and do some maintenance.”

There was tension in the street while I was walking.

The news that the Demon King’s army is nearby seems to have spread.

Especially, eyes were focused on us.

The person is wearing rags, so it seems to stand out.

“I’ll have to buy a plain robe soon.”

“Anyway, the rags are a bit strange.”

If possible, it wasn’t a bad idea to look for robes with magic that impair perception or distract attention.

‘I think it was.’

I have a reason to stop by the magic tool shop. I haven’t looked around since coming to the capital, so let’s take this opportunity to visit various places.

While walking down the street, Erina murmured to herself.

“Someone draws attention.”

It’s a tongue-in-cheek tone, as if transferring the blame to an unnamed dragon.

I immediately hit Erina’s head lightly.

“You’re suddenly annoyed.”

“It’s just that my eyes are uncomfortable.”

Contrary to words, it was an attitude of murmuring while getting irritated by anyone.

It hurts my head to see that my colleagues are already territorial no matter how long it has been since they joined.

‘Should we prepare a place to get to know each other?’

He didn’t even want Erina to be kind to her colleagues.

From her point of view, the nameless dragon is quite annoying.

But she couldn’t live like this every time.

The more you ignore her colleagues, the more you lose yourself.

‘Can’t we go back to the way we were before?’

The look I remembered. A good protagonist who always smiles brightly and is kind and considerate to her colleagues.

Some might call it a hogu, but I liked that look.

In a dark world, such a hero always shines.

But the Erina I knew was not here.

Maybe it’s all my fantasy.

“I’m sorry.”

I was a little surprised by her sudden apology.

Erina came to her side and took her hand.

I didn’t even have her silent permission. At some point, I naturally gave Erina her hand.

“Still, it was a little bit ignoring my opinion and bringing in other colleagues.”

“I’m sorry about that.”

Certainly it was my own arbitrariness that brought the nameless dragon to the party.

It’s a decision I made with her hesitating and Erina opposed.

“But I didn’t want to miss it.”

The hand that was holding my words trembled.

“Because it’s a special relationship.”

It is literally a special relationship.

Then Erina’s expression changes mysteriously.

“Better than me…”

“Huh?”

“Are you more special than me?”

He shook his head immediately.

“No. You are the most special.”

Erina is the character she has loved the most before falling into this world.

You are lying to me. She threatened the goddess and brought me here. I know everything.

But on the other hand, I hoped that all this was false.

I thought it would be nice to return to the way I remembered it.

Erina was so precious to me.

“…Is that right? Am I the most special person?”

“Yes.”

In fact, it was true that every time I saw an unnamed dragon, my heart was shaken.

From noble mtl dot com

But if I say this, Erina will surely be shocked.

Fortunately, her lips loosened at my answer. It clings to my arm and rubs her face.

How do you get so many different responses to a single word?

On the other hand, the nameless dragon was looking at us with an unknown gaze.

He was smiling happily from afar

“You’re on good terms. I can’t tell you how long the relationship is.”

“Even if it’s a relationship, it’s only a week.”

“Yes?”

The scene where the nameless dragon’s eyes widened and made me laugh.

It was the first time I’d seen her surprised, with only her melancholy and serious expression on her face.

Erina and I only met a week ago.

There’s so much going on in the meantime, I can’t really feel it, but we haven’t seen each other for a long time.

In this world to the end.

“Actually, it’s a little strange.”

“No. It’s not weird at all.”

The words were different, but the meaning was the same.

The nameless dragon, who was listening, still tilted his head.

“You won’t understand now.”

You will get to know her naturally as you get along.

We arrived at our destination while we were chatting.

‘Frost Tree Inn’ was written on the sign with the bare branches on it.

For some reason, I felt welcomed even though I only stayed for one day.

I missed the narrow but warm and soft bed.

When we entered the inn, it was surprisingly quiet inside.

Where did the noisy atmosphere like last time go, and there were no customers except for a few people.

“Welcome!”

The owner’s voice still echoed with vigor.

When I send a questioning look, he smiles wildly and beckons to me.

“We are doing business today. Everyone has just gone out because of the rumor that there is an army of monsters.”

It was definitely portrayed in the game.

In the event of an invasion of the monster army, the main character and his comrades also fought with the people around them.

Some of the people who were at the gate earlier were not guards.

Probably the adventurers in the capital gathered.

Even now, they may be guarding the castle gates to prevent an attack, or they may be clearing out monsters in the forest.

‘Already we dealt with it.’

Thanks to you, we can get a good room first, so think of it as a good thing.

“By the way, there’s one more person? We need to move rooms.”

Unfortunately, there are no three-person rooms, only group rooms that can fit four people.

I had to pay double the accommodation fee, but I still had enough money.

“The key is here. Rest in peace!”

The owner handed the room key in a lively voice.

He immediately handed Erina a shield and a sword.

“I’m going up first. I have a place to go.”

“Yes? Where are you going?”

“I have to report the quests at the request center. I also stop by the magic tool shop. I have a lot of work to do.”

I wanted to deal with troublesome things first.

When night falls, shops may close or people may be delayed.

“Can I go with you?”

“No, I’m enough alone. They’re resting in their room.”

He said he would come back until dinner and turned around.

This time, Erina smiled and let me go without saying anything.

“Let’s go!”

She waved her hand towards the lively voice and came out of the inn.

I decided to get busy until the sun went down.

“Follow me.”

As soon as he disappeared, Erina turned to her ice-cold attitude.

Surprisingly, the nameless dragon was not surprised.

Rather, she was expecting a cold attitude.

Erina already knew that she hated her and did not recognize her as her comrade.

“There are so many things I want to tell you.”

“Yes. Me too.”

Amid the tension, the two slowly climbed the stairs.

The owner is bewildered at the sudden appearance of the two people and just stares blankly.
