I'm the Only One With a Different Genre - Chapter 114

Chapter 114
Marry Me!

Noah’s shoulders shook as she gulped down a rough breath. This was the first time she experienced the sensation of her vision going white.

“What, is this? Uh…?”

Her sight blurred, and she vividly recalled the elevated emotions of feeling like she could do anything.

Remembering how she had thrown off her clothes and even unwrapped the bandages, Noah unknowingly screamed.

“Ahhh!”

The high-pitched scream, something she would never normally produce, showed just how confused she was.

Rustle, swish!

As Noah’s scream echoed in the room, a new white book sprang from her bag.

[ What’s going on? What happened?! ]

Julianna, who would usually just groan when stabbed, was startled by Noah’s scream and popped out of the bag. She immediately approached Noah.

[ Are you hurt? Is it a curse?! ]

Julianna asked in a serious voice while checking Noah’s condition. Her face was flushed, eyes teary, and she was trembling with confusion.

It was clear she wasn’t in her right mind. Julianna, with a serious voice, pressed Noah for answers.

T h i s w a s c o p ied f ro m k i n g mt l.o r g
[ What happened?! ]

“I…”

[ What…? ]

“I did something to Lian… ugh…”

Noah couldn’t continue and buried her face in her hands before collapsing onto the bed. Julianna, who had been serious, went silent for three seconds then looked as if she had figured it out.

[ ‘Did something interesting happen last night that I don’t know about?’ ]

Julianna’s expression turned mischievous in an instant.

[ Noah. ]

“Ugh…”

Still trapped in her memories of the previous night, Noah didn’t respond to Julianna’s voice. Julianna whispered into her ear.

[ Did you use protection? ]
T h i s w a s c o p ie d f r o m k i n g mtl. o r g

“Ahh! What are you talking about?!”

As if triggered, Noah shot up and shouted at Julianna, so startled that she even spoke informally.

[ Come on… really? It’s not true? I can’t tell anyone anyway, just tell me. Okay? ]

“No, no! It’s not true! Lian and I—”

[ Just? ]

“…”

Noah could only open and close her mouth, breathing roughly. Her head was spinning from all the blood rushing to it.

[ What did you do? If you don’t tell me, I’ll go ask Lian— ]

“No, no! You can’t do that!”

[ Then tell me what naughty things you did last night! Come on! ]

“N-naughty things…”

Remembering pressing her chest against Lian’s body, Noah clammed up.

[ What? Why can’t you say it? Did you make the first move? ]

“…!”

[ Really? ]

When Noah couldn’t speak and hung her head, Julianna’s eyes filled with amusement. Noah, who could endure any trial, was just a weak chick when it came to the trial of ‘love.’

“J-Julianna… what do I do? I made a huge mistake with Lian…”

Noah, on the verge of tears, began pouring out her confusion to Julianna, who had always given her answers.

Julianna responded with [ Oh, wow… ] exclamations as Noah continued her explanation, clapping her hands at the end.

[ If you’ve even sealed it with a kiss, it’s a done deal! ]

When Noah mentioned kissing Lian, Julianna cheered. Her emotions could be summed up as “The stocks I bought just skyrocketed!”

[ When do you want the wedding? Spring? Summer? Oh, will the ceremony be in the Empire? ]

“M-marriage?”

Just like how hearing the word ‘apple’ makes you think of an apple, the word ‘marriage’ made Noah imagine dating Lian, getting married, having three kids, living happily, growing old together, and reminiscing, “Remember those days, dear?” while laughing.

As the scenes flashed by, Noah stammered and mumbled, eyes dropping as she remembered something.

“Well… actually, my memory is fuzzy. I think we kissed, but I’m not sure…”

[ Really? Then I’ll go ask Lian. ]

“No, no! You can’t do that!”

Their argument ended only when an organization member brought Noah’s meal.

The journey began again.

“…”

“…”

A large, solid wall of silence formed between Noah and Lian. They couldn’t meet each other’s eyes or speak to one another.

“Oppa, did you fight with the boss?”

“Huh? Oh, no. Not at all.”

“But you’re not talking and looking away from each other.”

“We’re just playing a game.”

“That’s a weird game.”

Even the youngest, Ribon, noticed the awkwardness between them. The two friends had started seeing each other as potential romantic interests. Hearing Ribon and Lian’s conversation, Noah blushed.

Thinking about why she couldn’t properly talk to Lian reminded her of that night. Bored of the monotonous journey, Julianna floated in the air, watching the two with a mischievous smile.

[ Cute. So cute. This is youth. ]

After about a week of awkward and embarrassing travel, Noah and Lian started speaking again, albeit minimally. They were attacked twice during this time.

Once by a slaver caravan and once by mercenary bandits. Both times, Lian and Noah dealt with it.

“Wow… Oppa, you’re amazing!”

Seeing Lian fight properly for the first time, Ribon clung to his leg with sparkling eyes. Thanks to warning his demon sword not to emit an ominous aura, Ribon’s eyes were filled only with admiration.

[ Praise me more! ]

The demon sword, glowing from the rare praise, shouted. Of course, only Lian could hear it.

“Oppa! Oppa!”

“Huh?”

Clinging to Lian’s calf, Ribon shouted with a bright smile.

“Marry me!”

“Pffft!”

It wasn’t Lian but Noah who reacted first.

“Cough, hack, cough!”

She coughed violently, tears streaming down her face, as she choked.

“Boss, are you okay?”

Startled, Ribon rushed to Noah. Lian sighed in relief, grateful he didn’t have to answer the awkward question.

‘Marriage, huh…’

Like Noah, Lian imagined having two kids and a dog, living happily, growing old with Noah, and reminiscing, “Remember those days, dear?” before coming back to his senses.

Both Noah and Lian’s faces were beet red.

“Boss, did you see Lian oppa? He was like whoosh, whoosh! Just like a knight from a fairy tale!”

Beside a now-calmed Noah, Ribon chattered excitedly. Hearing “knight,” Lian remembered something forgotten.

‘Come to think of it, where is the knight who saved Iris in the original story? If possible, I wanted to escape with him, but… maybe that’s too much to hope for.’

Lian thought as he rubbed his flushed cheeks.

‘Since he took Iris to the Duke’s house alone… he should be okay.’

Two men in white lab coats sat facing each other in a luxurious study, having a conversation.

“Ugh… I thought at least one of them would come.”

“Originally, someone newly appointed as one of the Four Heavenly Kings was supposed to come.”

“Really?”

“Yes, but they were reassigned to a more urgent mission.”

“Damn… they don’t understand how important our research is!”

T h i s wa s c o p i e d f rom king m t l . o rg
“You’re right.”

“Tsk, if it weren’t for the intruder, we wouldn’t have to worry about this!”

The mustached researcher stood and walked to the window. Beyond it lay a pristine research facility.

Inside the facility, a 2-meter-tall female spirit with black skin was chained by dozens of metal chains.

T hi s was c o p i ed f r o m k i n g m t l . o r g
[ My baby… my baby… ]

The spirit kept crying for her child, tears streaming down her face.

Zap!

[ Aaaagh! ]

The chains sparked black, causing the spirit to scream. The man twirled his mustache and spoke to the spectacled researcher who had approached.

“Has the intruder still not talked?”

“No, but we did learn something.”

“Oh… what did you find out?”

“It seems he’s a knight from the Empire.”

“A knight?”

“Yes, quite a few items only used in the Empire were found among his belongings. His habitual actions also clearly indicated he was a knight.”

“A knight of the Empire…”

The man smiled broadly, revealing white teeth.

“He’ll make a useful test subject.”
