Celebrity Lady

Chapter 71



Apparently, it seemed like things would get bigger, so I sent Lark aside and apologized immediately.

“I’m sorry.”

“You’re sorry? Where do you leave your eyes in broad daylight so you can’t see?”

The harsh words stunned me for a second.

I had just listened to the story of Lark’s dispute and then got into a fight over the same case.

‘Well, there are situations like this obvious compulsory event…’

The man with short scarlet hair looked twice— No, three times bigger than me, and his stomach was the size of Namsan Mountain and was muscular.

In other words, he was so big that he wouldn’t feel a blow from a single bump on his shoulder. Even if he hurt, my shoulder hurt more…

“I guess you can’t see what’s in front of you because you’re wearing something like this, huh?”

It was obvious that he just wanted to pick a fight, not because he was offended.

These kinds of seeds should be sent well so they don’t cause harm. I apologized one more time.

“I’m so sorry. I will look carefully from now on.”

“No. Is that all you have to say?”

So what do you want me to do?

I was getting annoyed, but the man stretched out his big hand as if he wanted to take off my mask.

“Hey, stop.” Lark suddenly jumped in front of me and blocked the man’s hand with his arm.

“Who are you?”

“The road is so narrow that there’s no space to step on, so anyone could accidentally bump into somebody else. It’s a happy festival, so don’t frown on each other, and let’s go on our way. Ha ha ha…” Lark spoke with a friendly smile, but his sly attitude seemed only to antagonize the man.

The man shared meaningful gazes with the two friends next to him and burst out laughing sarcastically. “The festival’s annoying enough because of the fXcking kids making loud noises everywhere. So what the hell is this childish lion head, huh?” The man gritted his teeth and added, “It makes me uncomfortable. Even the offspring of beasts are flocking together in male and female pairs…”

For some reason, jealousy and resentment were buried in the mumbled voice.

Did he know that… anyone could see that he’d never held a woman’s hand in his life like a panorama…

“What are you guys going to do in broad daylight, huh? Can’t live without a girl?”

The man tapped the muzzle of Lark’s lion mask unpleasantly. The rather baggy mask turned ridiculously to the side.

Momentarily angry, I said behind Lark, “Have you done enough? I already apologized, so why are you like this?” I spoke quietly, keeping my voice as low as possible to avoid being noticed…

Unfortunately, people who were interested in other people’s affairs stopped and gathered around us, wondering about the daytime bustle.

“What? See how fierce this lioness is?”

Since I only wore a mask, I was treated like a lioness. The man giggled even more as if my reaction of displeasure could be felt behind the mask.

“Is she pretty?” He stretched out his big hand as if to take off my mask again.

However, he was easily caught by Lark. The man was startled by the strength of the hand that caught his wrist.

“What’s with you? Won’t you let go?”

“Your face looks familiar. Hey, have we seen each other somewhere?”

“What?”

Holding the man’s wrist tightly in his left hand, Lark fixed his mask right away.

“Why, seven years ago you screamed enough for the whole town to hear, saying you didn’t know I was the son of someone’s family.”

“Seven years ago…? Aah!” the man laughed in surprise and said, “Wow, this bastard still has his taste? You’re still walking around wearing a lion head?”

“What? Do you know each other, Joe?” When the friend standing next to him asked, the man, Joe, giggled.

“You were there at the time too, don’t you remember? The bastard who acted up and got beaten until he fell on his back by us.”

“Oooh, you should’ve said it right away.”

Even in the middle of it, Lark looked back at me and corrected it, saying, “It’s not to the point of being beaten until falling on my back…”

Looking at the situation, it seemed that he had run into the same guy he had a fight with seven years ago. What a coincidence.

“Honestly, five-to-one was a little too much. And I was at a disadvantage to protect the mask.”

“Aah! I remember, I remember! Come to think of it, he was down five-to-one and managed to turn around at the last minute!”

“That’s right! Joe tried to fight alone, but it seemed like it wouldn’t work, so he told us to attack him together!”

Joe’s friend 1 clapped his hands and said, Joe’s friend 2 also helped.

“Yes, yes, it was like that.” Lark nodded in satisfaction, and Joe frowned and turned to his friends.

“… Whose side are you on?”

“Anyway, it’s nice to see your face after a long time. Your terrifying size remains the same. Please have fun and go home.”contemporary romance

“Well, yes. You, lion mask, have grown quite a bit in the meantime, too.” Joe smiled brightly as Lark laughed and let go of his wrist. It felt like it was going to end in a warm way.

“You have a cute lioness beside you, and you’re taller than me by a head…” Joe laughed with a haha, but his face immediately hardened, and he added frighteningly, “How unlucky.”

And without blinking an eye, his fist swung through the air.

“Waa!”

“Oh-ho.”

Unlike me, who was surprised, thinking I would be hit, Lark lightly held Joe’s arm as if he had expected his reaction. Then, like a thick radish freshly picked from the field, Joe’s heavy arm was easily broken and suppressed.

“Uwaaaagh! Ughh!” Joe, whose arm was bent, made a big fuss.

“I understand how you feel, but do you mind separating quietly?”

“Hey, this bastard is really-”

“I can’t help it then.” Lark lightly stepped on Joe’s feet. Then Joe’s enormous size staggered and tilted. At the same time, the heartless Lark let go of the hand that was supporting Joe’s body.

‘Ooh, my nose is going to break!’

There was no time to avert one’s eyes from the momentary catastrophe that was about to happen.

However, Tak.

Before Joe’s face fell to the floor, Lark grabbed his arm again.

“I’ll be in trouble if there’s blood. Since I’m in the mood, I’ll let it slide.”

“T-This…”

Lark, who smiled under his mask, seemed relaxed.

By that time, my mouth was wide open. He treated that big body like a little puppy…

‘Look at his strength.’

However, the heartless Lark didn’t raise Joe up.

Thud!

“Oogh!”

When he let go of Joe’s arm, Joe fell helplessly to the floor.

Lark said with a smile, “Your nose shouldn’t have been broken. Sorry.”

“Thiiiiis…”

Leaving behind Joe, who was lying on his face in a funny way and trembling, Lark quickly grabbed my hand. “Let’s go!”

“Uwaa!”

After that, it was a mad run.

“Catch them!!!” Joe’s angry voice roared through the streets, and I was nearly blown away before being caught by Lark.

Joe and his friends began to follow us relentlessly. Onlookers opened the way like the miracle of Moses.

“Huft, haaah. Y-Your High- I mean,” A speed I’d never experienced before. My feet stumbled a few times, and I was out of breath. “Brother!” I called Lark because I thought I would die and stopped in embarrassment.

“I-I’m going to die… Oh, my. I-I can’t go anymore!”

“Oh, no. We’ll be in trouble if we get caught.” Lark, who clicked his tongue as he watched the group of Joe’s approach, hugged me after a short thought.

“Oh, my God!”

“Excuse me for a moment.”

… No, what’s this monster really?

Holding me wide-eyed with surprise like a princess, Lark began to run again.

It was obvious that I was heavy, but his speed was truly amazing, and his breathing wasn’t disordered. He was more formidable than when he was running alone.

“Hold tight!”

“Aaaaaaa!”

It was embarrassing to hold his neck tightly as I was told, but the street’s scenery passed by quickly.

As soon as I came out to the capital after a long time, I met an arch-enemy on a single wooden bridge and filmed a thrilling escape movie… Even though it was a risky situation where it would be my end if I got caught, I laughed out of place.

Enjoying the thrill, I shouted, “Brother, ruuuun!”

***

The grown-up lion mask had truly become a great male.

‘He’s truly wild enough to be the head of the pack!’

As if his health bar had pierced the sky, he succeeded in overtaking his pursuers without showing any sign of exhaustion even while holding me.

After breaking through a narrow alley, we hid in an uninhabited place, secretly taking off our masks and catching our breath.

“Haaah, haaah…”

“Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

“No, you were the one who ran. Why would I be the one hurting?” Wiping the sweat from under the mask, I stuck out my tongue.

Lark chuckled.

“Get some exercise.”

“I do, every day. Have you seen any other noble lady who works so hard on improving her stamina?”

Lark and I looked into each other’s eyes and burst into laughter.

“By the way, we didn’t get to enjoy today’s festival because the eye-catching lion mask attracted so much attention,” Lark, who was glancing out of the alley, said in a regretful voice. I poked him in the side and shrugged.

“What else will happen on the ground of the wide capital?”

“Huh? Do you want to go around more?” Suddenly, a drop of sweat appeared on Lark’s forehead as he blinked and looked down at me.

“It’s a shame if I can’t do anything after coming out with great effort.” I added, pulling up my sleeves and wiping his forehead, “And you have great stamina, so what are you worried about? If we meet the bullies again, just bend their arms once more and run with me.”

Lark, who hesitated to receive my touch, smiled.

“All right.”

“Heehee.”

Like generals on the march, we put on our masks again.

“Let’s go, Brother!”

Lark muttered in a smiling voice as he followed me, “… that brother sounds good.”
