My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 421: Take Things Slow?

"What I mean is that I still need to set up my area, and unload all of the equipment," Zenobia smiled slightly while presenting her reason, "That is why you should rest in the meantime." "..." Queresha stared at Zenobia, but the latter had no change in her expression, instead...

"I know you haven't been getting proper rest, and it wouldn't be better if you end up making any mistakes in the process," She drove her point more confidently because she knew how Queresha did things.

And after a little silence, where Queresha couldn't think of a way to counter Zenobia's point.

"...I suppose you are correct," She relented, she could understand Zenobia's main point, "Then we'll start tomorrow morning at 7."

"Are you sure?" Zenobia asked and Queresha tilted her head.

"What do you mean?" She asked but...

"Nothing really, I guess I'll be ready at 7," Zenobia nodded with a smile, as she saw Queresha pick up the laptop, and walk towards the door with a question in her head.

"I'll see you tomorrow morning," Queresha left after saying her words. In the end, she didn't ask the question.

"Still the same as ever," Zenobia on the other hand, shook her head looking at the door, "She thinks that she won't get any sleep, so she took the laptop with her to continue her work."

That was the most Queresha thing to do, as for why she didn't get sleep was a different matter.

Zenobia reached out for the inner pocket of the cream-coloured long coat she was wearing, and took out something.

It was another coat, but this one was ripped from the back.

"I wonder ...how much longer will it take?" Zenobia asked herself leaning on the table while looking at the coat.

"I guess, I'll fix this and pass a little time," And as Zenobia took out the sewing kit from her pocket, someone knocked on the door.

"You can come in," Zenobia said, and the door opened revealing the unexpected visitor.

White hair and red lips, an incredible beauty with sharp eyes and delicate features, it was none other than Lee Seol-hwa.

"Pardon my intrusion at this time... hmm?" She looked around the room as if searching for someone but, "Zenobia-ssi, Where is Queresha-nim?" she could only ask about her to the one she met.

"She took her leave for the day," Zenobia answered as politely as the one in front of her, "is there anything to matter, Seol-hwa-ssi?"

"No... I won't say that something is troubling me, the reason I came was because I wanted to... talk about what I could do to help," Seol-hwa carefully answered, since the one in front of her was Zenobia.

There was no need to even ask around to know how close she was to the main group, since it was pretty easily known thanks to her treatment of Haru and the others from his group.

And she had seen it herself with the way she and Haru talked.

Not to mention, that she was now in the office of the vice leader of the main group, alone. She was possibly the last person Queresha met today before going.

'Did she just leave?' Seol-hwa thought as she had missed Queresha somehow, it happened because she took the stairs and the person she was trying to meet used the emergency stairs to get out of the place quietly.

"She will be back tomorrow morning, and I know she would really appreciate your help, so thanks in advance," Zenobia smiled since that was what Queresha wanted, she wanted all of the groups that had gathered in this place to be involved.

That way they could maximize their manpower, and don't get caught doing too much.

And it seemed like like Seol-hwa understood it as well.

'The more we do on our own, the more unwanted attention we attract,' This was something they were doing before but, 'It is about time we take a backseat for a while.' Zenobia understood this, and she had no problems with it.

"Thank you for your kind words," Seol-hwa bowed slightly and was about to leave, but she caught a glimpse of something that made her stop.

"What happened?" Zenobia asked since she had also noticed Seol-hwa's behavior, and her eyes were fully fixed on one spot.

"That coat..." Seol-hwa knew who it belonged to, and the one in front of her understood her reaction now.

"Ah, this one, it belongs to Haru," Zenobia didn't hide it, and there was no reason to do that, "he really likes this one, so I am fixing it for now." You could even say that she was talking too much.

Of course, it was on purpose...

"I see then... do you need any help?" Seol-hwa asked gulping down some of her anxiety.

'This might not kindly... No, I suppose it really is weird...' Seol-hwa shook her head since she was just a new member, and if she asked for such a thing without even being involved in the matter then, 'I most likely look suspicious because of this.'

There were skills now that could affect others from a distance remotely, and thanks to it being known that she works with poison, it was bad for her to suddenly get involved in fixing the item that belonged to the leader of the group.

But she couldn't do anything about it now since the dice was already rolled, and the reason why her brain just ignored all of the logic was because of the words Zenobia had said.

'He liked that coat but... it was ruined because of me,' Seol-hwa's thoughts were complicated, if she hadn't been in a daze at that time this wouldn't have happened.

Not to mention, that she had seen him look visibly sad, when he saw how the coat was ripped. So, now she understood why that happened.

But that didn't take away from the fact that she was out of line just now... well, it was all in her head anyway.

"Do you know how to sew?" Zenobia asked, and Seol-hwa nodded.

"I did learn it," Seol-hwa nodded, it was sort of like her hobby to do knitting and such, so she had quite some knowledge of this.

"Oh, then please help me with this," Zenobia smiled since this was a good thing, "we'll be able to finish it quickly that way." Seol-hwa nodded at her words and walked forward.

'It is a good thing that nothing happened,' She sighed in relief on the inside, as this could've gone quite wrong.

But this would only be an issue if she was in some super on-edge group that overthought everything. Thankfully things weren't like that here.

"At what time will Queresha-nim be back?" Seol-hwa asked as she hadn't lost sight of her original goal.

"Hmm I think she will be quite late tomorrow," Zenobia spoke with a small smile.

"...Why?" Seol-hwa couldn't help but ask because of that expression, and she had also heard from other members that Queresha was hard-working.

She was someone who even sacrificed her rest, just to get things done.

So, why would such a person be late?

"She will be resting a little extra because of going a few days without any sleep," And Zenobia's answer made sense, it even made Seol-hwa nod in understanding.

"Then should we finish this work and get some rest as well?" Zenobia looked at the coat before turning to Seol-hwa with a smile.

"Yes, but ...let's not do this hastily, we might get punished," Seol-hwa didn't want to rush, and possibly do a bad job, and she tried to loosen the atmosphere with a joke

"Of course, we will do a good job," Zenobia giggled looking at Seol-hwa, "I don't like rushing things anyway."

"Yeah..." Seol-hwa smiled slightly as she understood the meaning behind those words, and the two started to work.

'Well, I hope you get a good rest Queresha,' Zenobia tried to think how late Queresha would be tomorrow, and the reason why she was so certain that she would be late was...

'What is the point of this?'
