  Chapter XLVl

Bang.

The 25-point target fell.

“Damn it…”

As it continued, the man’s swearing grew longer. At some point, the whimpering heard from Leon’s side had turned into an exclamation.

“Wow, that’s really cool.”

Leon never thought the shooting skills he had honed so far would shine here.

“This will come in handy someday when you find a girl you like.”
He suddenly remembered what his father had said while teaching him how to shoot. It was not about hunting women, and it was not about killing rivals to claim possession. Perhaps, his father meant this when he said it would be helpful?

In the end, with 125 points, he even won a doll and a voucher for the candy stand.

“Here.”

Leon took the dolphin doll from the grumbling owner and placed it in Daisy’s arms.

“How amazing! Neither my brother nor Jimmy ever made it.”

When the girl looked up at him and admired him, he felt like a god.

At the candy stand, Daisy chose a candy apple. Then, she held out a stick with an apple dipped in red sugar syrup.

“You eat, too.”

“I don’t really like sweets…”

“Ah…”

When Daisy brought the apple back to her mouth, Leon couldn’t finish what he was saying. With a bright red candy apple in her mouth, the girl raised her round eyes and gazed up at him.

Enchanted by that appearance, Leon lowered his head.

Crunch.

He bit off the other side of the candy apple. The taste of fresh apple and sweet sugar entwined his tongue.

Did kisses taste like this?

Their eyes met with an apple the size of a fist between them. It was the first time Grace knew that light in the sky could be as hot as fireworks. Meanwhile, Leon was embarrassed and wanted to take off his lips, but he couldn’t. His lips had stuck to the sticky syrup and didn’t come off.

…Perhaps, it was a very deceptive excuse.

As he tilted his head, the gently closed eyelids lifted gently before he gazed at Grace again.

Leon reached out his hand to her cheek, who forgot to eat the apple and just stared blankly at him. The moment the silky soft skin touched her, Grace’s heart sank. She felt like she was about to pass out when all he did was take the hair off her cheek.

‘It feels like we’re kissing.’

The two shared the same idea and shared an apple with a face redder than the apple.

From then on, they held hands and walked with the excuse of losing each other because there were a lot of people. As they walked, they escaped the crowded carnival and entered a quiet shopping district, but the two did not let go of their hands.

Both of them snooped around a jewelry store that they wouldn’t normally go into. The girl’s eyes did not fall from the glass bead bracelet containing the refreshing sea light.

“I think it will suit you well.”

Daisy shook her hand as Leon pulled out his wallet.

“No. No.”
